80s: The cold-faced tough guy was controlled by the beautiful woman

Chapter 451 Female Lead's Side Story (Life is Like a Play, Part Two)

Li Yingtang saw the two off.

Lying in my room, recalling the life I had lived, tears streamed down my face.

Her friends were all incredibly real.

It turns out it's just a character in a game.

She really couldn't accept it.

"Tangtang, dinner's ready." The aunt knocked on the door again.

Li Yingtang: "I have no appetite."

"You have to eat at least a couple of bites," the aunt continued knocking on the door.

In the past, Li Yingtang would have definitely scolded him.

Having experienced life and death, she is now gentle and stable: "Let it sit for now, I'll go down in a bit."

"Hey." The auntie left.

After calming down for a moment, Li Yingtang went downstairs, drank a couple of mouthfuls of porridge, rinsed her mouth, and then dialed Li Tang's number.

In the world she traveled to, her grandfather passed away when she was eighty years old.

A few months later, Grandma also passed away.

It felt like she hadn't seen them for over a decade.

After the video call is connected.

The face of the old man across from me came into view.

His hair was now in his fifties, and his face was covered in wrinkles.

I've seen him young and I've seen him old. Seeing him again now, my nose tingled and my voice trembled slightly: "Grandpa."

The old man smiled kindly: "Tangtang, what's wrong? The voice sounds off. Did someone bully you?"

Li Yingtang complained, "My brother took a helmet and said it would let me experience the real game world. The helmet was electrified and it knocked me out." That annoying Li Chulin! If it weren't for him, she wouldn't be so sad.

She survived to 97 in the game.

One by one, her family and friends left her.

She has been heartbroken time and time again.

It turns out it's just a game.

"You brat, is he bored? Tangtang, don't be sad, I'll call him over right now, and I'll give him a good beating," the old man said.

Li Yingtang felt much better: "Where's Grandma?"

Li Tang's camera pans to: "Old woman, your eldest granddaughter is looking for you."

Li Yingtang saw the old lady sitting on the sofa, holding a piece of fabric in her hand. "Grandma, what are you folding? It looks like a child's clothes."

"These are the clothes you wore when you were little. I was tidying up today and found a bunch of them. I'll have someone take them outside to be washed, bagged, and stored. When you get married and have children, your kids can wear them. They'll be very meaningful." The old lady said with a smile.

Li Yingtang had mixed feelings; in the past, she certainly wouldn't have understood.

It's not like we can't afford it.

Why go to all that trouble?

But in the world of games, she did the same thing when she was old.

She kept everything about Tuantuan very well.

When she passed away, Tuantuan was over seventy years old.

Woohoo.

She wanted Tuan Tuan.

But Tuantuan isn't here anymore.

Even with Qin Xiansheng now, it's unlikely they could have a child like that.

That despicable Li Chulin! Of all the games he could develop, he had to develop this kind of game that involves killing people.

"Grandma, I miss you. I want to come to your place for dinner tonight."

“You can come anytime. Your grandfather didn’t go to the company today, so you two can catch up and chat,” the old lady said with a smile.

Li Yingtang felt much better after hearing this: "Yeah!"

After hanging up, she dialed her grandfather's number again.

The elderly woman's kind face quickly appeared on camera. "Tangtang, why are you calling so early today?"

Li Yingtang: "I miss you."

Lin Ye laughed and said, "Did someone upset you?" That brat only thinks of coming to him when she's feeling wronged.

“My brother took the game helmet,” Li Yingtang complained again.

Lin Ye sighed helplessly, "You two were so close when you were little, how come you're always arguing now that you're older?"

"It's all his fault."

Lin Ye: "I think it's his fault too. It's a pity that Grandpa is old. If he were twenty years younger, he would kick him away to avenge you."

Li Yingtang chuckled: "Grandpa is so kind."

Zhen Pei leaned closer and said, "How is your grandfather, Shan Shan?"

Li Yingtang said sweetly, "Grandma, I miss you so much."

Zhen Pei said angrily, "You only think about it but don't come to see me."

Li Yingtang: "I'll fly over to see you tomorrow."

"really?"

“Really,” Li Yingtang said firmly.

Lin Ye and Zhen Pei were very happy: "Okay, we'll wait for you."

Li Yingtang hung up the phone and arranged for her assistant to buy her a plane ticket.

Afterwards, we drove to the old house.

The unfamiliar scenery gradually became familiar.

Li Yingtang suddenly felt excited: "Grandpa, Grandma."

The old woman appeared at the main door: "You're such a big person, why are you still acting like a child?"

Li Yingtang ran over and hugged her: "Is that not okay?"

"Okay." The old lady gently patted her back: "Your grandfather just called your brother and scolded him, telling him to apologize to you properly next time he sees you."

Li Yingtang: "I feel much better now."

The old lady chuckled: "I asked the auntie to make some pastries for you, have some."

Li Yingtang greeted the old man and sat down to have some snacks.

The old man asked, "Aren't you at work today?"

Li Yingtang: "Yeah! My team closed a big deal, so I gave them two days off and plan to take a week off myself to travel around."

She has been striving for success in the world of games.

Starting from the age of eighty, I always felt uncomfortable all over my body.

I feel dizzy when I'm in a car, and I get very breathless after walking just a few steps. Even the most delicious food tastes bland.

Now she doesn't want to spend all her time on her career.

Even the most successful endeavors pale in comparison to the passage of time.

"Where to play?"

Li Yingtang: "My maternal grandfather's house."

“What’s so fun about that place? It rains every few days, the air is humid, and the scenery is overly commercialized. It’s much more relaxing to hike around here,” the old man said.

Li Yingtang: "." Forgot.

In the real world, my maternal grandfather and paternal grandfather do not get along.

"I don't want to go anywhere nearby." Li Yingtang changed the subject, talking about the old man's collection that he was interested in.

Because I have lived in the world of games for more than seventy years.

His knowledge and experience are no less than the old man's.

The two hit it off very well.

The old man looked at her with increasing affection: "My eldest granddaughter is really good. I think you are much more reliable than your brother now."

Li Yingtang grinned.

It was almost 5 p.m. when a message popped up on my phone.

It is Qin Xian.

He said he would pick her up to go to the movies.

Li Yingtang then remembered their agreement.

She replied to him: "I'm busy right now, I'll contact you when I'm done."

Qin Xian: [Approximately how long?]

[After 7 PM.] Li Yingtang shared her current address, proving that what she said was true.

After sending the message, she immediately realized that she didn't need to report it.

He's not her husband, Qin Xian, so why did she have to make it so clear to him?

Just as Qin Xian was about to open the address, the message was retracted.

"Xiao Xian, why have you been staring at your phone all day?" Qin Mo leaned over. Qin Xian covered her phone, refusing to let her see it.

Qin Mo was taken aback: "You have a girlfriend?"

Qin Xian: "Mm."

Jia Yan: "Where is this girl from? I don't recognize foreigners."

Qin Xian: "I'm a local, and I'm planning to pursue her, but she might not agree to it."

Qin Mo said incredulously, "With your education and looks, she still wouldn't agree? Her standards are way too high."

Qin Xian: "You have a mother's filter, so you think I'm good, but others may not."

Qin Mo doesn't think she has a mother's filter. When she was young, even if she wasn't exceptionally beautiful, everyone who met her praised her for being pretty. Her son looks like her, so he can't be ugly, right?

She has a high level of education.

Many of her girlfriends wanted to marry her.

Jia Yan: "This shows that the young woman is excellent herself and has no shortage of good men around her."

Qin Xian nodded in agreement.

My dad is both in the world of games and in real life.

They are both very reasonable.

Qin Mo: "How old are you?"

Qin Xian: "Nineteen."

Qin Mo: "Why don't you pick someone your own age? You picked someone so young, probably still in school. Will you two even be able to connect?"

Qin Xian: "She started working, and like me, she finished her studies earlier than her peers."

"That's great! What does your family do?" Qin Mo's curiosity was piqued.

"That's all I can tell you for now when it comes to business." Qin Xian didn't intend to continue the conversation.

Qin Mo continued, "Do you have any siblings? Or are you an only child?"

Qin Xie didn't answer.

Qin Mo sighed and discussed with Jia Yan, "He's been studying all his life and has little social experience. Won't he be deceived by girls outside?"

"Don't worry, he can't be fooled." Jia Yan was very confident in his son.

"."

After 7 o'clock.

Li Yingtang kept her word and messaged Qin Xian: "Are you still watching a movie?"

【Can. 】

Li Yingtang: [Will this interfere with your work?]

【Won't. 】

Li Yingtang: [Shall I pick you up?]

"Okay." Qin Xian sent her his address.

Li Yingtang drove to the destination: 【I've arrived.】

【receive. 】

Looking at the message on her phone, Li Yingtang thought to herself, "How come he's just like my husband in the game?"

That's how he replies to messages—he's very concise.

They become very talkative when you meet them.

Did he play the game with her?
impossible.

If she remembers the games he played with her, why doesn't he?

Their temperaments are also quite different.

In the real world, Qin Xian is not so aloof; she has a noble air about her.

Her husband has a scholarly air about him.

At that moment, the glass window was knocked on.

The man's face, flawless from every angle, was reflected in the glass.

"Tangtang."

After Li Yingtang pressed the unlock button, Qin Xian walked around to the passenger door, opened it, and sat down: "You just got off work? Workaholic!"

In the game, she relied on her good physical condition when she was young and devoted herself wholeheartedly to her work.

When I got old, I felt unwell all over and kept asking myself, "Why haven't I died yet?"

"Why do you call me Tangtang when I'm with my grandpa?" Li Yingtang asked, puzzled by his way of addressing her.

"Isn't it okay?"

Li Yingtang: "It feels a bit awkward. You're not my boyfriend, nor are you family."

Qin Xie lowered his eyes.

Li Yingtang glanced at him and said while driving, "I still don't know how you and my brother met."

Qin Xian: "Three years ago, he and his team went abroad to expand their business. Someone there had an epileptic seizure and happened to meet me. After that, we started seeing each other." He met her when her brother hosted a birthday party.

I was amazed at the time.

Upon inquiry, it was discovered that she was underage.

He then gave up on the idea.

He ran into her again on the street during the Chinese New Year last year.

My mind started to wander again.

Li Yingtang: "." We've known each other for three years? "Thank goodness I met you, otherwise I would have been in trouble."

Qin Xian did not respond.

Li Yingtang then asked, "Do you have any brothers or sisters?"

“I have an adopted brother who is a few months older than me,” Qin Xian said meaningfully.

His family size remained unchanged.

However, in the game, perhaps to enrich his character, his parents' love story is portrayed as more tumultuous.

In real life, his parents were also separated by his grandmother.

In the real world, the father's personality is more assertive than in the game world, and with the advanced communication technology, it's easier to find people.

Not long after he was born, his mother was found by his father.

His adopted brother was from a friend of his mother's family.

The parents were in a car accident, and the adoptive brother's grandparents had many sons and didn't care about the adoptive brother.

The adoptive brother's maternal grandparents refused to take him in.

The mother couldn't stand it, so she brought the child home and gave him the father's surname.

My adopted brother's childhood sweetheart is indeed named Xuanxuan.

Her brother's name is indeed Ding Ying.

In the game, their storyline revolves around her.

In fact, they were all his friends.

Li Yingtang: "How many people are in your family?"

Qin Xian: "Four people: parents and elder brother."

"What's your father's name?" Li Yingtang really wanted to know.

Qin Xian: "Jia Yan, I take my mother's surname."

Li Yingtang's heart skipped a beat. Was she dreaming?

But she could feel the cold air from the air conditioner, and his voice sounded incredibly real in her ears.

Li Yingtang's mind was in turmoil.

We arrived at the movie theater screening room.

She didn't pay attention to any part of the movie; her mind was completely occupied with the difference between the game and reality.

In summary...

Aside from the characters' ages and family backgrounds not matching, everything else is the same.

The movie ends.

Qin Xian suggested going for a walk and getting some late-night snacks.

Li Yingtang checked the time; it was almost eleven o'clock.

Most of the shops in the mall were closed.

Is this the only place with street food stalls around now?

In the game, she hadn't eaten at a street food stall in fifty years.

It’s not that I don’t like it.

I can't stand that smell anymore when I get old.

Now that I've essentially regained my youthful body, I'm tempted to "go wild": "Great! I know a good place. My colleague brought me here, and the food is pretty good."
