At this moment, the fatty felt like dying.

A big burly man, losing to a female player in a strength competition?

This is freaking ridiculous, right?!

If this got out, wouldn’t he be the laughingstock, losing his front teeth laughing? (Refer to the 139 duo to understand how embarrassing it is for the fatty.)

Because of this, he began to doubt whether the layers of fat on his body were as useless as chicken ribs, not only getting in the way, but also being completely useless...

"Little sis, look at you, not knowing how to restrain yourself at all, wounding the guy so badly, how is he supposed to face reality later? If he becomes desperate, it would all be your fault."

Yu Jing chuckled, especially upon seeing the fatty’s despairing look. She couldn’t help but burst out laughing on the spot.

"..."

Lin Yuqing looked innocent. What had this to do with her? It was all his own doing, who could he blame?

"Ahem, my strong woman, what a good skill you’ve got, I admit defeat!"

To the fatty player, Yu Jing’s laughter, like silver bells, was particularly grating, trampling over the last of his dignity. For the common man, he would have broken down by now. But the fatty, with his thick skin, didn’t show any excessive expression. Clearing his throat to ease the awkward atmosphere, he strode over to the sisters, looked admiringly at Lin Yuqing, and sighed, "My strong woman, it’s you who taught me that there are always people better than oneself, and the sky’s the limit. In chubbiness there’s chubbiness, an endless expanse of fat, wow!"

"Bastard, are you asking for another beating?"

Lin Yuqing felt that the player’s words were filled with a mocking tone and immediately became angry, stomping her feet and waving her little fists, threatening.

"Strong woman? Pfft... Hahaha, you’re too hilarious, boy, oh my God, I can’t take it, my stomach hurts!"

Yu Jing burst into laughter on the spot, forgetting any semblance of her image, squatting on the ground, holding her stomach and laughing nonstop.

"..."

Lin Yuqing even thought about logging off.

"My strong woman, to meet is fate, and when fate comes calling, it can’t be blocked. Plus, our body types are similar, this shows even more that destiny in its mysterious ways is guiding us to meet, to know each other, to... uh, that might be a stretch."

The fatty player talked more and more absurdly, until he saw Lin Yuqing looking like she was about to explode, and he immediately shut his mouth.

"You annoying fellow, God-Demon Continent is so vast, so get as far away from me as possible, now, immediately, at once!"

Lin Yuqing trembled with anger because of the fatty player. She hadn’t expected to meet such a shameless person; compared to him, classmates like Zhang Meng and Wang Mazi were nothing!

"Hahaha, I can’t take it anymore, brother Fatty, wait until I catch my breath, then you can continue. I’m about to die of laughter, hahaha~!"

Yu Jing laughed so hard she was crying, seeing the fatty player open his mouth, she quickly spoke to stop him. If she were to be forcibly logged off by the system due to excessive laughter, she’d probably be the first on the God-Demon Continent, right?

"Big sis, how didn’t you die laughing?"

Lin Yuqing glared at Yu Jing by her side, huffing with anger. She herself was in such a state, yet her sister was enjoying the show – definitely a true sister!

After a while, Yu Jing finally regained her composure, her rosy cheeks not yet subsided as she curiously asked the fatty player, "You went out of your way to hit on a girl with all this talk of fate and destiny, tell me, have you taken a fancy to my sister?"

"What?"

The fatty player was dumbfounded.

Into her?

The fat man glanced at Lin Yuqing’s figure, then at his own, and swallowed hard. Without hesitating, he took a step back, squeezed out a smile, and then said, "You flatter me, miss. Those were not my intentions, please don’t misinterpret my words. It’s easy to create a misunderstanding."

"Not your intention? Then what do you mean? Let’s hear it."

Yu Jing didn’t want to let the fat man off so easily. Her eyes shining, she watched him closely, waiting for him to continue.

"Sis, why are you even wasting words with this guy? Let’s leave quickly, Overturning Water might have already returned."

At this moment, Lin Yuqing had lost all patience. Just seeing this guy made her incredibly irritated; it was better to follow the adage ’out of sight, out of mind.’

Yet for some reason, her sister had a change of heart. The same sister that was usually so indifferent to men had suddenly taken an interest in this fat man, causing Lin Yuqing to suspect that her sister’s aesthetic standards needed some serious treatment.

"Little sister, there’s no need to rush this moment, let’s see what he has to say first."

Yu Jing held back her younger sister, gesturing for the fat player to continue. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

"Overturning Water?"

The fat player was good at catching the main points. Upon hearing ’Overturning Water,’ he raised an eyebrow, and when both women had quieted down, he asked with feigned mystery, "The Overturning Water you mentioned just now, wouldn’t happen to be ’Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained,’ would it?"

"Oh? You’re quick-witted, aren’t you? To make that connection."

Yu Jing looked at the fat man with surprise, not expecting his slow-looking, chubby appearance to conceal a quick response. It truly was a case of ’don’t judge a book by its cover’—people are inscrutable and so is the sea’s depth.

"If the one you’re talking about is indeed ’Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained,’ then we’re even more fated,"

said the fat player, a sly glint in his eye, chuckling, "I had just parted ways with Brother Overturning Water in the tunnel, and then I ran into his two close female friends. Isn’t this fate extraordinary?"

Tunnel?!

The two women were shocked at his words, their gaze at the fat man changing significantly, especially Lin Yuqing, who found him less annoying, because she had heard him refer to Overturning Water as ’brother,’ indicating a likely close relationship.

"Brother, how may we address you?"

Yu Jing’s eyes twinkled, her voice becoming serious, "How do you know Overturning Water?"

"You can just call me Fatso; I quite like how it sounds. Names are but external properties, brought neither at birth nor taken at death. Talking about names is too mundane and can easily create a distance in trust between people, don’t you think?"

Although the fat player said this, in his heart he was thinking, what a joke––I’ve just offended ’Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained’ to death and now they want to know my name? Maybe in the next life!

"Okay then, calling you Fatso isn’t awkward. Tell us, how did you know that Overturning Water was in the tunnel?"

"Ah, the child has lost its mother, the story is a long one. Brother Overturning Water and I have been through trials and tribulations in that tunnel, sharing a bond forged in adversity..."

The fat player stirred up some emotion before speaking in a weathered tone, believing that using such a tone would add credibility to his words, especially when dealing with these two naïve girls—it was a guaranteed way to deceive!

However, before the fat player could finish, Lin Yuqing interrupted him.

"Stop lying. When I left, the BOSS had already been defeated; there were no more monsters. A bond forged in adversity? That’s laughable. Stop spouting nonsense!"

Adhering to her preconceived notions, Lin Yuqing spoke bluntly to the fat player, not showing any courtesy and directly exposing his lie.
