The Number One Player on the Server Can't Stop Thinking About Me [Online Game]

The icy, aloof perfectionist priest top x the lively, carefree warrior bottom

Jiang Yu thought this was the unluckiest day he’d ever had gaming.

The rare hidden quest he’d just triggered required him to fight an open-world boss that every player on the server was after?

He’d finally tried to claim an open-world boss for once, only to find the server’s top player holding the field?

But there was no time to be sad about missing out on the boss now. Why had the top player sent him a friend request???

Jiang Yu became an unprecedented legend in the game, and everyone envied how the server’s most aloof top player held him in the palm of his hand.

His account had shabby gear, and his character wore ragged clothes, but on the very first day they met, the top player gave him top-tier equipment and an exclusive outfit.

When people on the forums accused him of being too unskilled to team up with the top player, that player set aside his server ranking to practice one-on-one with him.

During a boss raid, the whole team was near death, but the top player’s final healing skill landed on him alone.

Even when he coughed a few times over voice chat, the top player brought him cold medicine in the middle of the night and took care of him until morning...

That night, the main city was bustling with people. Fang Yuechuan set off 520 fireworks for him, filling the whole map with suggestive flower petals. A dazzling sea of stars bloomed just for him.

Just like that, Jiang Yu somehow ended up agreeing to be with Fang Yuechuan.

But little by little, he began to realize that this attentive kindness felt like peering through a veil at a vague, fleeting figure.

Only when that figure overlapped with him, dressed in black and sharing similar habits and even the same little gestures when greeting people, did Jiang Yu wake from the dream.

He put his account up for sale on a trading platform that very night.

Whoever wants this secondhand love can have it. This young master is out~

Bonus scene:

Fang Yuechuan opened the trading platform and immediately spotted the account wearing the six-figure outfit he’d personally given away, listed right there on the showcase page with a clear price tag.

His hand trembling, he left one message after another beneath the account’s listing.

A Thousand Rivers Return to the Moon: I’m sorry.

A Thousand Rivers Return to the Moon: Don’t sell your account.

A Thousand Rivers Return to the Moon: Give me a chance to make it up to you.

The sale listing broke the trading site’s record for views. For the first time, everyone saw the lofty top player set aside his pride and beg someone to stay.
