The game plot in this story is entirely fictional. Please do not imitate it.
Gu Yuchu is a soft, easygoing freelance designer. She’s so gentle that she doesn’t even dare argue with anyone. She just loves curling up in her little home to draw and play the historical online game Ode to Mountains and Rivers.
In the game, she’s a nobody. Shy and afraid of socializing, she never chats with anyone and only teams up with friends at her level to run dungeons or gathers herbs out in the wild.
She has no idea that Lu Yanbei, who lives next door, has been quietly in love with her and looking out for her for six whole years.
To outsiders, Lu Yanbei is an aloof, distinguished young master with immense power: taciturn, stern, and seemingly without a weakness. But in Ode to Mountains and Rivers, he is Beifeng, the top-ranked player on the entire server, who bends the knee for her alone.
When he sees her recruiting players in the game, he drops into her party and sends her a friend request.
He quietly watches over her in real life, drawing Gu Yuchu into Lu Yanbei’s gentle embrace.
He protects and spoils her, letting the whole world know that Gu Yuchu is off-limits, the one and only person in his heart.
From watching over her in-game to openly showering her with affection in real life,
this is a fast-paced, endlessly sweet romance with no angst and plenty of feel-good moments!
When the aloof young master drops his mask and murmurs to the soft, sweet girl, “Chu Bao, I’ve been in love with you for a long time,”
the secret love he’s kept hidden for six years finally comes true.
