You're My Only Star

Chapter 82 - Uncle, Be Realistic

Lu An Ran looked at her brother and son speechlessly. When she decided to take the family on a vacation and meet her brother, she wanted her son to spend too much time playing games.

Jia Xuan liked his uncle, Lu Xun a lot. Lu An Ran was hoping that by letting the two interact a bit more. Perhaps, her son could be a little more serious and be more like his uncle.

She really did not expect that it would turn to the opposite!

It was her brother, Lu Xun who has become more like her son!

In the past few days, her brother has been spending too much time with her son playing games.

Initially, Lu An Ran had thought that perhaps the uncle and nephew were trying to bond.

She should be happy that her brother offered to babysit Jia Xuan so that she could go out on a date with her husband. However, when her brother showed up two days in a row, Lu An Ran began to think that something does not feel quite right.

It was the weekdays, but her brother was skipping work to play games.

Seeing this scene, Lu An Ran began to worry again.

She wondered if her brother was too devastated after he was rejected by a girl.

The last time Lu Xun broke up with Shi An Na, he stopped believing in love and has been rejecting any girls who wanted to get close to him. Lu An Ran was worried that her brother might be skipping work and play games too much because he was rejected.

What would happen if her brother started to abandon his work and company later on?

Of course, Lu Xun was unaware of his sister's worry.

At this time, he was sitting in the living room with his nephew at the side with his phone in his hand. His eyes were focused on the game as he listened to Jia Xuan's instruction to defeat a big boss.

After battling the big boss for two minutes, his character died.

The light in his eyes dimmed as he watched the word 'Defeated' written in black and white font. All of the sudden, he had the urge to throw his phone on the wall. Noticing that his nephew was by his side, Lu Xun knew that he should not show a bad example to Jia Xuan.

The little boy seemed to notice his uncle's bad mood.

Jia Xuan patted his uncle on the shoulder and spoke, "Uncle, don't be too sad. How about this… Create a team and invite me. My level is higher than the big boss you're fighting. I should be able to help you to defeat him."

Lu Xun looked at his nephew and chuckled. "Kid, are you showing off to me now?"

"Of course not." Jia Xuan batted his eyelid innocently.

He only wanted the chance to ask the phone from his mother, ah!

Jia Xuan quickly ran over to his mother and explained his situation.

Lu An Ran heard that his son was going to help his uncle teach some monster a lesson and decided to let her son borrow her phone. Anyway, it would be better to keep her brother in the room where she could watch over him. Lu An Ran was too worried that her brother would try to do something stupid when he was alone.

Seeing the two boys sitting side by side with the phone in their hands made her feel as if she was a mother of two. Lu An Ran quickly shook that thought away and went into the room to find her husband.

Once Jia Xuan returned to his side, Lu Xun then asked, "Is there any way for me to increase my might quickly?"

Jia Xuan logged into the game and looked at his uncle. "Of course. If you are willing to spend a lot of money to buy equipment and stuff, you can increase your might quickly. In fact, most of the top players spend a lot of money to get where they are."

Lu Xun nodded. He was reminded of the top-up notification he got each time he logged into the game. However, he had never thought that he wanted to spend his money in the game.

His nephew had mentioned that Song Xing Xing's skills in the game were quite good.

From that information alone, Lu Xun was able to guess that Song Xing Xing should be a high-level player. Or else, how could she attract his nephew's attention?

Should he start to spend some money in this game?

Lu Xun clicked the store and looked at everything they sold in there. His eyes widened in surprise when he saw the price of those items.

For a while, he could not believe that people are willing to spend that much money on gaming. His gaze shifted towards the costume that was put on sale. Earlier, while he was walking around in town, he had seen a few players wearing this costume.

He looked at the price of this costume and became speechless.

It was too… expensive!

At this time, an offer popped up on his screen. It seemed that the game developer was encouraging their player to top up a lot of money daily.

A thought came to his mind and Lu Xun started to consider investing in online gaming.

The items in the game store were expensive but top players stayed and a lot of them are willing to spend their money. Moreover, these days, this game has been quite popular. Or else, how could they hire Huo Yun Chen to endorse this game, right?

When he returned to the office, he should ask Special Assistant Bai Yuan to do some research in this field.

Anyway, even if he made a loss in this investment, he still has a lot of money.

His finger hovered over the purchase icon. Lu Xun glanced at his nephew again. "If I start spending money on this game, do you think I could increase my might and become one of the top players within a week?"

Jia Xuan chuckled. "Uncle, be realistic. You only play for a few days. No matter how much money you spend, it would be impossible for you to become a top player in a short amount of time." He suddenly became aware of his words. Jia Xuan stared back at his uncle and spoke, "Of course… if you change your server to the new one that was recently open, becoming a top player in a short time would not be impossible."

Lu Xun snorted. The new server was opened not too long ago. Lu Xun thought that if he wanted to create a chance to meet Song Xing Xing in the game, he should pick the new server.

Taking a deep breath, Jia Xuan decided to change his strategy. "Uncle, come over and invite me to your team.. I'll help you to defeat that big boss."
