Also known as Hello, Great Master
(The main story is complete. There are currently no plans for extra chapters. You can check out my other novels, My Friend Can Die, But Not Me and Forced to Live with My Love Rival After a Breakup [Esports].
This is a keyboard-and-mouse MMORPG story about a slightly over-the-hill office worker! It is not a power fantasy, not a power fantasy, not a power fantasy! Recommended for readers who have played social MMORPGs such as Justice, Jian Wang 3, Moonlight Blade, A Dream of Jianghu, FFXIV, and the like!
[Coolheaded Gentleman Top] + [Refined, Delicate, Gentle Bottom]
As a software developer whose life consisted of nothing but work and a three-point commute, Ji Yuzhou's emotional life over the past twenty-six years was as blank as a sheet of paper.
His fortunes shifted, and his career took a nosedive just as he was caught up in the tech industry's wave of layoffs. After finding himself unemployed at home, he started power-leveling characters in a martial arts MMORPG called Supreme Mountains and Rivers.
Who could have guessed that, just as he was earning a little pocket money, an old nemesis would come out of nowhere and pull him into an unconventional, turbulent martial arts world with a marriage contract? He had always kept to himself, but now he was caught up in all kinds of trouble.
A two-timing womanizer who kept a harem, a crooked raid leader, cliques within the game...
Meanwhile, his romantic fortunes, like the other end of a seesaw, seemed to be quietly on the rise.
That fated nemesis
Yuzhou: I told you, I'm just a power-leveler...
Nemesis: So what if you are? Once I've set my sights on you, you're mine.
Yuzhou: You're the male Daji of online games. How many people have you flirted with?!
His nemesis rested his head against Yuzhou's shoulder
...I've only ever flirted with you.

Other people are hell; everyone is their own little universe.
This is a quirky keyboard-and-mouse MMORPG story with lots of workplace fatigue, complaints, and gossip.
Tags include:
Cross-dressing identity reveal | Contract romance | Sweet cohabitation | MMORPG player ensemble
A down-to-earth, realistic little comedy, with plenty of sweetness. Feel free to bookmark it.
The story involves all kinds of disputes in the game world, where truth and lies blur together. Any resemblance to actual people or events is purely coincidental~
P.S.:
There is a love triangle, but the rival is only there to make the top jealous, and all their feelings are unrequited. The top and bottom are mutually in love. They are a couple from beginning to end, one-on-one. Happy ending. The bottom is strong, but the top is even stronger. Both are virgins.
Please don't read if you're extremely strict about the bottom having a rival, or about him interacting with that person.
1. This is not a power fantasy, and there aren't many face-slapping scenes.
2. Before the top was sure of his sexuality, someone pursued him, and he briefly agreed to date a woman who asked him out. They broke up amicably and never had any intimate contact. It was in name only, so please don't read if that bothers you.
3. The antagonists are PVE players led by the guild leader's wife. They will be redeemed later. This is an honest depiction, not the author's opinion, so please don't read if that bothers you.
4. There is a lot of gaming slang. It probably won't affect your reading experience even if you haven't played, though.
Thanks to Huangmi Lianggao for providing the character design sheet for free.

[Stubborn, Tsundere Queen Bottom X Hypocritical, Scheming, Black-Bellied Top]
After cutting ties with Ji Yuzhou, Liang Han went AFK from every major online game to escape the heartache.
Just then, he received an invitation from his childhood friend Sun Yangyang to join the amateur division of S.K.Y's national MOBA esports tournament.
He agreed to join the team to pass the time, but when he entered the group chat, he found someone there he absolutely did not want to see...
Zhou Yanshen: Hi
Liang Han: ...
Liang Han: I... damn...
Zhou Yanshen.
Liang Han's childhood friend, though they had no childhood sweetheart dynamic. They had been rivals in school, from kindergarten through elementary, middle, and high school...
Right up until they went to college, they had been stuck together like a couple of dog-skin plasters, unable to shake each other off.
Competing for the top spot in their grade, game trophies, the same crush...
Although their mothers had once forced Liang Han into all sorts of entanglements with him, in Liang Han's eyes, they would always be rivals, one or the other!
Until something happened in the summer after high school graduation...

Heartbeat Livestream
[Cheerful, Scheming Bottom] X [Sharp-Tongued, Black-Bellied Top]
Yang Yufei loved money more than life. One day, in an old alley during a downpour, he found a gorgeous, perfectly built, mysterious mixed-race guy with nowhere to go.
Hmm, tall and well-proportioned, with defined muscles and a handsome, compact face with sharp features. He'd look great on camera...
An idea struck him.
"Hey, kid, "
"Be my gay-couple livestream partner."
He gave his wallet a shake.
"I'll take care of you."
And so, with a little coaxing and deception, Yang Yufei launched a shameless couple-streaming career with the handsome guy. Whatever the top donor ordered them to do, they did.
Strip and cuddle? Sure. What wouldn't you do for a little cash?
Touch each other's faces? Ha, as long as the tips keep coming, we'll give you top-notch service.
Kiss? ...Uh, maybe we can use a camera trick and make it look like we're kissing. Of course, if he doesn't mind, Yang Yufei doesn't mind either...
But one day...
The top donor's demands became a little terrifying.
"I want you to kill the host of the livestream next door."
After a blackout, Yang Yufei discovered that he and his partner had fallen into a strange virtual space, trapped in a terrifying livestream competition game about survival, deception, and murder.
"You must win this virtual livestream game."
Heartbeat Livestream: the whole point is to get your heart racing.

Yang Yufei was best at lying.
But there was one person he could never fool: the irritating pain-in-the-neck who offended everyone he met
Yang Yufei: Stop looking me up and down like you can see right through me. It's annoying.
Lai Yi: ...
Lai Yi: Yufei, do you know that whenever you lie... you blink more often?
Yang Yufei: ...Do I?
Lai Yi: So when I look at you like this, I know that instead of being annoyed, you're...
Lai Yi: Embarrassed.
Yang Yufei: ...
Lai Yi: You're lying again.
Lai Yi: But I don't mind harmless lies like that.
Lai Yi: Yufei, don't forget: in front of me, you're an open book.
Lai Yi: In this world...
Lai Yi: No one understands you better than I do.
This is a twisted game about the human heart. How will those caught in it find a way out?

[Coming Soon 3]
I Like You [Showbiz]
This is a bittersweet love story about several couples.
Main couple:
Jiang Chengxing, a playboy who dates men and women and is known as the ultimate catch in the gay scene, didn't make a very good first impression on An Sheng.
Messy, shifty-eyed, and unkempt, he looked just like a shut-in nerd.
He was always late to important events, too...
They worked for the same company and kept running into each other. Every time Jiang Chengxing saw him, he wondered how someone like that had gotten into showbiz, or signed with Wing, one of the biggest entertainment companies.
Heard he was good at singing and acting? Hmm, Jiang had heard him sing, and he wasn't bad. But with such poor punctuality and such a casual appearance, even talent could only get you so far commercially. Why did the company treat him like a treasure, letting him do whatever he wanted...
Then, at an in-house audition, An Sheng was late yet again, using up every last bit of patience in the famously punctual Jiang Chengxing. He swore
He would never have anything to do with this guy again!
But during the audition, Jiang Chengxing got distracted by how picky his scene partner was about his appearance and attitude. With a hint of mockery and complete nonchalance, he delivered his line, wondering how the guy would respond
"Could you ever love me?"
The man slowly lifted his lowered head and looked at him with a vulnerable expression. His amber eyes shimmered faintly, as if he had become the character. A tear fell from those beautiful, utterly sincere eyes.
Jiang Chengxing had been irritated and was forcing himself to keep his temper in check, but his heart suddenly skipped a beat.
This is bad.
This guy...
Is dangerous!!

The cover will be changed later.
I'm writing entirely to suit my own tastes, and the details are still being worked out. Any resemblance is purely coincidental.
Theme: Other people are hell, but they can also be heaven.
You've already gotten yourself into PTSD, but you're still willing to take him off the blacklist for a little interpersonal connection, and now you're not getting chills all over? Humor
It made me laugh so hard. Two dead ducks poured a cup with their tough mouths.
Finished spreading flowers! I accidentally clicked on the article and saw it, and I didn't expect to find the same flavor as I used to read online game articles. Different from the cookie-cutter attacking and receiving characters nowadays, the characters in the novel are very vivid 😭
I'm a bit of a genius, but I've been through so many things and still act like a stupid kid. I have to go along with everyone and everything. I'm in love and I'm being kissed for a game. To put it mildly, I'm neurotic and to put it worst, I have no sense of boundaries and I cheat on you. Now I have to make do with someone who has caused huge harm to my life. I really don't understand what this guy is thinking. If you can't offend me, why can't you hide from me? Look at me and get angry
Oh my god, he is already in love, and for the sake of a scene, someone he hates deliberately makes things difficult for him, and he is actually ready to kiss someone who knows he likes him?
Is it gone? It's a little short.
I was so excited when I saw the update that I came in and found that it was locked 😭 😭 😭
Taichun loves the universe. I saw Xiao Gu forced to laugh so hard that he couldn't stop smiling. Then the universe cried and I was stunned. Oh, Chun loves the universe. It's so cute.
What's this!! This is the treasure [Joker] of someone who has done something wrong and apologizes in return. If I hadn't already subscribed to it, I wouldn't want to read on. Author, your writing is very good, but please don't trick people into killing them. Your copywriting demining is simply not enough
Liang Han: I hate that the bright moon hanging high does not only shine on me
