Chapter 532
[522] Unless he is Xu Jinhuan
"Okay, that's all for now. I'll send you more pictures or videos later."
After sharing photos and videos in the fan group, Zhu Xiaoyi smiled as she saw the continuous stream of "positive reviews" in the group. At the same time, she noticed a WeChat message pop-up and clicked on it with slight confusion.
"What's your Honor of Kings account number? I'll give you a full set of skins."
? ?
After reading the message, Zhu Xiaoyi was completely confused, especially by the other party's WeChat nickname:
Breeze Xu Lai
"What a show!"
She couldn't help but mutter a complaint, thinking it was some stranger she'd added on WeChat who wanted to flirt and was trying to show off after seeing her posts. After a moment's thought, she typed, "Do you play 'Honor of Kings'?"
The other party replied, "Of course."
Zhu Xiaoyi's impression of this person worsened, and she was already planning to delete him from her friends list: "Do you even know that some limited-edition skins can't be bought?"
The other party replied, "Of course, just tell me your account number."
Zhu Xiaoyi silently tried to calculate it, but found she couldn't figure it out, so she opened her browser and searched: How much does a full set of skins for Honor of Kings cost?
The different answers varied slightly, but were generally around 2 yuan. Zhu Xiaoyi's family was not poor, otherwise she would not have been able to support her to travel around and follow celebrities since college. However, 2 yuan was still a huge expense. Therefore, she was prepared to refuse since she thought the other party was going to pay for her to buy the skin.
She switched back to the chat window, a hint of curiosity flashing through her mind. She wondered just how rich the other person was, that he was willing to spend 2 yuan to buy her a skin even though she had no recollection of him at all. That was too extravagant!
"Ok?"
Zhu Xiaoyi had no early chat history because she hadn't seen any of their previous conversations. She assumed they hadn't chatted since adding each other, so she subconsciously looked for ways to add each other as friends and discovered that she had added the other person by phone number.
This time, Zhu Xiaoyi was confused. Why was it she who added the other person?
After thinking for a moment, she typed a reply: "Thank you, but no need. I've bought most of the skins I wanted, except for some limited-edition skins that I can't get."
Then ask, "Um, may I ask, do we know each other?"
Don't you remember me?
On the other end of the phone, Xu Jinhuan chuckled, but wasn't surprised. He replied, "It was several years ago when you took a picture of me and my girlfriend in Huangshan and sent it to me on WeChat."
Huangshan?
Zhu Xiaoyi finally vaguely remembered and was slightly surprised. She didn't expect the other party to send her a gift because of those photos. She quickly typed to decline, but then saw the other party say, "I work at Zhiyu Games."
Rain Weaving Game?
Zhu Xiaoyi was a little confused and typed, "What is the Rain Weaving Game?"
"..."
Xu Jinhuan was momentarily speechless, almost laughing, and explained, "It's the company that developed 'Glory.' Don't worry, it's within my personal capabilities."
"Wow, you're amazing!"
Zhu Xiaoyi was filled with respect and thought for a moment before saying, "Then could you help me buy a Shangguan Wan'er limited edition Shangsi Festival item? I'll transfer the money to you."
The other party replied, "Okay, send me your account number."
Zhu Xiaoyi then sent the account number and a 198 yuan red envelope. After that, the other party stopped replying. She thought about it for a moment, then opened QQ and sent a message in the "Chen Xingruo Fans Group 16" asking: "Hey, do you guys know which company makes Honor of Kings?"
Someone in the group quickly replied:
"The Rain Weaving Game!"
"Hey, have you guys heard? I saw a post online saying this sounds like the name of Xu Jinhuan's ex-girlfriend."
Zhu Xiaoyi didn't care about these gossips, and she didn't know Xu Jinhuan. She typed a question: "Can employees of that game company buy limited-edition skins?"
As the group admin, she was quite popular in the group, and everyone answered enthusiastically, but their opinions differed, and most of them didn't really understand these situations. After some discussion, someone finally gave a more convincing answer:
"Definitely not. Otherwise, if they become too common, limited editions will lose their value. Besides, these skins aren't physical products; digital products can be locked down directly, so you can't do anything underhanded."
Zhu Xiaoyi was a little confused, so she quickly typed out her situation. Everyone's opinion on it was very consistent:
"It's definitely a scam!"
"Yeah, one or two skins is fine, but he also said he could give you all the skins. Even Honor of Kings only gives away a few accounts with all the skins during big events like anniversary celebrations."
Zhu Xiaoyi retorted instinctively, "But I sent him red envelopes, and he didn't accept them!" "Maybe he's trying to play the long game."
"Group owner, please don't make any more money for him!"
The group member who seemed to be good at analysis also said, "Just based on the fact that it's a full-skin account, you can tell that it's a complete scammer."
"Ok."
Zhu Xiaoyi was a little disappointed. She hadn't expected the other party to lie to her. But thinking about it, she still felt something was off. She felt that the other party's attitude didn't seem like that of a liar. She tried hard to recall the scene when she met him in Huangshan, but she could only remember the vague details. She only remembered that the other party's girlfriend was very beautiful and had a particularly good figure.
"Anyway, I wasn't scammed out of anything."
Zhu Xiaoyi didn't hesitate for long. She took a shower and was getting dressed when her phone suddenly rang. She picked it up and saw that it was a message from "Qingfeng Xulai": Okay.
real or fake?
After the explanation from the group members, Zhu Xiaoyi was no longer convinced, but she didn't reply rashly. She decided to wait and see if the other party would ask her for money. Just as she was thinking about it, her best friend called her on voice call. As soon as she answered, she shouted: "Look, we're missing one player. Let's go online!"
"it is good!"
Zhu Xiaoyi was about to log on to see if the other party was lying to her when she heard this. She didn't even put on her clothes, just opened Honor of Kings in her underwear, and recounted what had happened in the group voice message. She then said, "I'm going to check the skin."
"how is this possible?"
After hearing her story, her best friend instinctively felt it was unreliable, and her boyfriend added, "Even if he's not a scammer, he's still bragging, unless he is Xu Jinhuan!"
My best friend laughed and said, "Haha, if you knew Xu Jinhuan, we'd be rich!"
After a few teasing exchanges, Zhu Xiaoyi remained silent. Her best friend couldn't help but ask, "Auntie, what's going on?"
"Wait, no, don't speak..."
Zhu Xiaoyi stared blankly at the list of skins on her phone screen, blinked in confusion, and then mumbled a reply before continuing to scroll down. She finally recovered slightly from the shock and stammered, "I, I... he seems to be telling the truth..."
"what?"
Her best friend was very surprised, "He really got you Shangguan Wan'er's Shangsi Festival skin?"
"no no……"
"No?"
No, it's not just that!
Zhu Xiaoyi finally came to her senses. "It seems he really gave me all the skins, including the limited editions for Shangguan Wan'er from the Shangsi Festival, Spring Festival, and Double Ninth Festival!"
"how is this possible?"
The five-player voice chat exploded instantly, "Where's Huo Qubing (Chongyang Huo)? Is he here?"
"Does the anniversary limited edition character Xiang Yu, the one who could lift the tripod, also exist? What about Nie Yinniang, the sword immortal?"
"Let me look..."
Zhu Xiaoyi frantically rummaged through the items, "I have Huo Qubing's Double Ninth Festival, Shangsi Festival, and Dragon Boat Festival skins... I also have the complete Xiang Yu skin..."
Holy crap!
Holy crap!
"This scammer... oops, your friend is amazing!"
"Yeah, can he really get his hands on all the skins? Didn't they say they weren't selling them at all?"
The group immediately became excited, "How much is it? I want one too!"
"Auntie, could your friend really be Xu Jinhuan? He's so amazing!" (End of Chapter)
