[Draft blurb. I'll revise it when I post.]
At nineteen, Yu Muxiao returned to school as a first-year computer science student. Her unkempt appearance and year-round flannel shirts made her the butt of jokes.
No one knew that she was the young esports prodigy TEK.Alpha, discovered by the TEK esports club at eighteen, but driven into retirement after a mistake at the NBPL earned her a torrent of abuse.
A God of Gaming, she debuted in a blaze of glory and retired in disgrace.
Yu Muxiao kept her identity secret and played Naraka: Bladepoint as an ordinary player, giving herself the name "Wandering Swordsman Across the World." She never expected to run into a terrible little newbie who played a healer.
·
After Naraka: Bladepoint became all the rage in the dorm, Wen Chunmian grew interested. Rather than play with his roommates, he secretly applied for a smurf account.
The reason was simple: Wen Chunmian was a gaming black hole. He couldn't be bothered with the shaggy-looking characters and complicated skill combos, and only liked playing pretty, delicate female characters.
Luckily, he ran into a foolish player who could be persuaded to carry him with just a few words.
"Big brother, could you carry me? QAQ"
"Big brother, you're so good with Fireblade!"
"Big brother, you're so cool!"
Although the newbie's skills were questionable, Yu Muxiao lost herself in the stream of praise.
·
At school, Yu Muxiao ran into her childhood friend, Wen Chunmian, again.
He'd always been the kind of kid other parents pointed to as an example. Only she knew how well he hid behind his facade: a gentle, model student on the outside, but in reality a sharp-tongued, flirtatious, fussy young master.
She looked at Wen Chunmian's outrageously long hair, which fell to his shoulders, and said helplessly, "Did you move to Thailand?"
He raised his affectionate eyes and warned her coldly, "Don't say you know me at school."
Since birth, Wen Chunmian had hated three things most, and all three were related to Yu Muxiao. But later, the three things he liked most also turned out to be related to Yu Muxiao.
"Birdsong all around, in a deep spring slumber I dream; only when I wake do I long for the morning light."
A shameless, flirtatious, terrible-at-games young master & a fierce, taciturn, straight-talking female gaming god
A male heartthrob from the arts department & a "loser" from computer science
#ChildhoodFriendsAndNaturalEnemies + FirstLoveForBoth + HappyEnding + Esports + Campus
#The game is Naraka: Bladepoint, version-independent.
#The male lead is handsome with long hair, not effeminate. The female lead has a commanding, mature beauty.
