Wu Huaiyang was a super-student, the darling of his counselor and department head. They were afraid he'd melt if they held him too tightly, and afraid he'd fall if they didn't hold him carefully enough.
Jiang Niannian was a super-student who hauled bricks at construction sites every day. She worked herself to the bone, while the merciless ultraviolet rays destroyed her fair-as-snow complexion.
Wu Huaiyang was the campus heartthrob. Even two years after graduation, junior students still waited outside his company to confess their love.
Jiang Niannian was the department belle. Right after graduation, she landed a job as a construction-site quality inspector, and gleefully huffed and puffed as she hauled bricks. Junior students? Confessions? Ha, who the hell would come to a construction site?
Jiang Niannian was the top-ranked Hua Mulan player in the country.
Jiang Niannian asked: Do you know how hopeless it is when even a ranked match takes ten minutes to find opponents?
Yes, she was hopeless.
So she made a new account, with a cool, flashy avatar and the ID "Teach Big Bro."
In the Bronze division, she was having the time of her life and flirting like a pro.
Until one day, she started a match at the construction site and picked Shangguan Wan'er.
Her teammate, ID: Hua Mulan's Husband (Li Bai): "Teach Bro, are you hatching eggs at the fountain?"
Jiang Niannian struggled out of the fountain. She typed: "I'll carry you."

Jiang Niannian stared at her 2G internet speed, her hero dancing on its own, and the messages from Hua Mulan's Husband.
"Teach Bro, can't you fly?"
"Oh, you can fly? Then could you turn the steering wheel and fly back to the fountain to hatch eggs? Thanks."
"Teach Bro, we're the Four Peaks Sword Sect. You're the leader of an evil cult, aren't you?"
"[All] Tough luck for the guys on the other team. Must be hard keeping up that disguise."
"Teach Bro, please don't use your feet to play the game, objk?"
"Teach Bro, is it fun to get carried to victory?"
Jiang Niannian: ...
She'd never been so humiliated playing a game before.
One second before the enemy crystal was destroyed, she finally managed to send a message: "Just wait."
Hua Mulan's Husband: "Nah, no need to wait. I like to rank up quickly. Find someone else to carry you."
Jiang Niannian, scowling: ...
I won't stop until I beat you so badly you're begging me for mercy and calling me Grandma!
