Chapter 95: Playing Games Together
Ethan chuckled and replied with a question, “Why? Can’t I?”
Kristen was confused as images of her past surfaced in her mind. She could not help but say emotionally, “This is too much of a coincidence. No, back then, you… I…”
Kristen spoke incoherently. Finally, she sorted out her thoughts and said, “No, it’s really because of our fate.”
Ethan took out his phone and asked, “Do you want to play a few rounds with me again?”
Kristen’s interest was piqued. “Okay, let’s team up. I’ll pull you.”
Ethan logged into his account. The ‘Woof Aloof’ ID flashed with a yellow light, and Kristen entered the game with her ‘Queenie’ ID. They sat together and started the game.
…
Taylor had never expected that she would take advantage of playing the game to gain popularity, only to have it stolen by Kristen. She was reduced to a supporting role. No reporter noticed her from when she got on stage to when she got off the stage.
This was a huge blow to Taylor.
“What’s the hell with that? Good at playing games? Who doesn’t know how to play it?” Taylor complained, but her hand unconsciously logged onto Twitter. When she saw the number one title on top of the hottest searches list, she couldn’t stay calm anymore.
She had thought that Kristen was just good at playing games, but she didn’t expect to have such a powerful Alt ID. It should be noted that she had watched Kristen’s competitions when Queenie was playing Glory Game, which was simply first-class.
But she didn’t expect that Queenie she used to admire was Kristen Healey she hated most.
Taylor couldn’t stand it anymore. Then she seemed to think of something, and her eyes lit up. She quickly searched for the news about Queenie on the Internet. She remembered that in the past, “Queenie” and a player named “Woof Aloof” once had a secret relationship. They were very famous in the circle of Glory Game. There were even rumors that they were lovers.
If Queenie was Kristen, then the news that Queenie and ‘Woof Aloof’ were together was not groundless. Did that mean that Kristen was a fickle woman who flirted with men in the game?
Thinking of this, Taylor perked up. She took out her phone and called, “Do me a favor and send the gossip news about Queenie and ‘Woof Aloof’ to the headlines.”
Kristen, let’s just wait and see.
If Ethan knew about your past, he would probably chase you out of the house.All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.
Taylor loudly laughed with a sinister expression. When the passersby saw this, they all took a detour. It was clear they were greatly frightened by her.
“Ethan, I won this round.” Kristen looked at the victory interface and couldn’t help smiling. Ethan put down the phone in his hand.
“I haven’t played games for a year. My skills have regressed.”
Kristen tried to comfort him. “It’s all right. It’s not shameful to lose to me.”
Ethan stood up and embraced her shoulders. “Come, let’s go back.”
As they walked side by side, Kristen looked into the distance with her bright eyes and could not help saying, “Do you think that fate is predestined? After all the twists and turns, you are still the one.”
Ethan raised his eyebrows slightly. He also felt that everything had been arranged in advance.
“Maybe.”
The two of them looked at each other, and Kristen couldn’t help but ask curiously, “Ethan, why are you not so busy these past two days?” He even had time to follow her to promote her new drama.
Ethan said calmly, “The company hasn’t been very busy recently. With Jacob around, there won’t be any trouble.”
Kristen agreed and asked, “Are you free tomorrow?”
“What is it?” Ethan asked.
“We still have publicity tomorrow. If you’re not busy, you can go with me.”
Ethan agreed without hesitation.
“Okay, no problem.”
However, there was a flash of doubt in Kristen’s eyes. These two days, Ethan had been acting strangely.
But she couldn’t tell what the abnormality was for a moment.
However, at that moment, the phone in Kristen’s pocket rang, and she answered the call.
“Anna, what’s the matter?”
“Miss Oliver, bad news. Check Twitter quickly.”
There was a flash of doubt in Kristen’s eyes, but she still followed Anna’s words and clicked on the trending search on Twitter. She found a search tag named “Queenie&Woof Aloof” had risen to the top of the list.
Kristen raised her eyes in disbelief and looked at Ethan. She shook the phone and said, “Look, we’re on trending.”
Ethan frowned as he looked at the tweeted post. He said, “It’s obvious that someone deliberately put this on Twitter.”
Kristen was confused. “No way?”
Ethan’s keen intuition told him the matter wasn’t as simple as it seemed.
“What’s the purpose of posting this video?”
This question hit the nail on the head, but Kristen couldn’t figure it out after thinking about it for a long time.
“What do they want?”
Kristen clicked on the comments and found that netizens were speculating about her identity and relationship with ‘Woof Aloof.’
“What’s our relationship? Isn’t it just an opponent in the game? What else can it be?”
Kristen complained ruthlessly.
Ethan felt that most of the content was related to their relationship. Maybe it was to create some rumors about Kristen’s love life.
“Don’t worry about it. It won’t do me any real harm. Everyone in the Glory Game circle knows what happened between you and me in the past. There’s nothing new about it.”
Kristen said without paying attention to it.
Ethan wasn’t against the netizens creating romantic rumors between the two of them, so he let them do as they pleased. The netizens were good at digging for secret news, they had wanted to take this opportunity to explore more hidden information about Kristen, but it turned out that there was nothing wrong with her.
Since she debuted, Kristen had never been involved in scandals with any male celebrities. She completely relied on her work to talk. Netizens were not fools. How could there be gossip about such a female celebrity who devoted herself to her career?
Not only did the fans give up on their attempts to peel away Kristen’s past, but some even directly became her fans. Overnight, Kristen Oliver’s fans rose by hundreds of thousands.
Kristen didn’t pay attention to this kind of news at all. In other words, she didn’t take it seriously at all. For the next few days, she was busy with publicity, waiting for the first episode of The Grand World.
The time of the first broadcast was set at eight o’clock on Saturday evening. It was prime time. In the afternoon, the director sent a message on the WhatsApp groupchat.
[Tonight is the first broadcast of ‘The Grand World.’ At the same time, the actors and actresses need to give live broadcast and audience interaction.]
Now that the live streaming market was popular, the streamers could create a wave of topics if they could broadcast together during the show’s first episode.
[No problem! But should we connect the voice call on the Internet or live broadcast together?] Iszard sent a message in the group chat. After a while, the director replied.
