Chen Yusheng soon got her answer.
Su Bai suggested they duo queue for a few rounds of games.
So Chen Yusheng sat across from him.
Out of habit, she lifted her legs, looking for a place to rest her feet.
Only then did she realize how spacious the area under this gaming desk was.
The cables from the electronic devices were neatly tucked into slots, with extension cords and securing clips designed in a way that allowed her black-stockinged legs to stretch out effortlessly.
"How about this? Comfortable?"
"Mhm, very~"
Chen Yusheng narrowed her eyes in satisfaction—this was exactly her kind of thing.
How to put it? Just so relaxing!
And good for her health too, since her circulation wasn’t great. Stretching her legs like this helped with blood flow.
Who would’ve thought Su Bai’s gaming desk design would take this into account?
"The depth of this desk was specially calculated—just enough for your legs to stretch over while keeping the monitor at the right distance… So? Pretty clever, huh?"
"Extremely clever!" Chen Yusheng praised, then added curiously, "But won’t you get tired with my legs like this?"
"Tired? I’d be thrilled!"
Soon, the game began.
And Chen Yusheng quickly understood why Su Bai said he wouldn’t get tired.
His physical stamina was downright inhuman now.
This little weight was nothing to him.
Comfortable!
So comfortable that Chen Yusheng played exceptionally well this round.
Carrying Su Bai through the Gold-tier matches, they dominated so hard it was practically bullying—but in the most stylish way.
The enemy team even started flaming Su Bai in chat.
Yep, they assumed Chen Yusheng was some pro player carrying her "girlfriend," with Su Bai being the "girl."
Chen Yusheng couldn’t stop grinning the entire time.
The funniest part? Su Bai, that weirdo, leaned into the act and started typing overly cutesy, saccharine lines in chat, pretending to be a girl.
It had Chen Yusheng laughing uncontrollably, her voice bubbling with a carefree, "Geh geh geh~"
A sound brimming with youthful joy and natural delight.
...
Now drowsy, Chen Yusheng sighed in mock frustration.
Ugh, her original plan for the night was to grind ranks hard, but Su Bai’s creative gaming desk setup was just too good.
It perfectly catered to both their needs.
How does his brain even work? Always coming up with the most bizarre yet oddly fitting ideas.
Living with someone like him, even as they grew older, would probably keep her feeling young at heart, wouldn’t it?
She understood that staying youthful in spirit had nothing to do with maturity—they were two separate things.
Some girls mistook worldliness for maturity, dismissing genuinely kind-hearted men as "immature."
Like that trending phrase online these days—"The first sword after success strikes down your loved one."
Or wives constantly pushing their husbands to "do better."
Every time Chen Yusheng saw stories like that, she couldn’t help but think those girls were being utterly foolish.
Finding a man who truly loves you is already a rare blessing—why demand so much more?
Those girls were the ones who hadn’t truly grown up.
Chen Yusheng’s outlook was simpler. She didn’t need Su Bai to bend over backwards to please her or cater to her every emotional whim.
As long as she could keep doing the research she loved, spending her days gaming and watching anime with Su Bai, life was already peak happiness.
Spiritual fulfillment like this would keep their love strong for years to come.
Even as she drifted off to sleep, that sweetness lingered in her heart.
So when her phone buzzed with a message from the research group’s WeChat chat, she was already too far gone to reply.
Su Bai would have to check it for her.
with countless casualties. As a top-tier gamer, Liu Xuan volunteered to join the fight, intending to dominate with his skills, but instead he obtained the hidden class: [Pacifist]. Unable to attack.

he colors of other people’s emotions. Light red meant anxiety. Gray meant exhaustion. Orange meant excitement. Yellow... meant repression. At the same time, he could gain unlimited control over one of those colors. Pale cyan: relaxation. Using this ability, he started offering “two-yuan hugs,” spending an afternoon exchanging emotional-color experiences with others. Then came his final female customer of the day— a girl whose emotional color was pure black... —— A week later, Xu Chuan had become skilled at using pale cyan—Relaxation—treating it like a bottle of menthol balm whenever he needed it. That was when he discovered he had unlocked another unlimited emotional color: Purple, the color of fear. So these emotional colors refresh every week? Fine, I take it back—I’ll never call you useless again... —— Much later, after Xu Chuan had accumulated countless emotional abilities, one night, he suddenly found himself inside someone else’s dream. There, he could use the emotional colors he possessed to paint. And in her dream, he painted her a shower of pink shooting stars, spreading across the depths of the night sky...
