When Xiao Yan arrived at the gathering location, there were already four people waiting there. She parked the car a little far away, didn’t turn off the engine, and observed a little through the windows of the car. The four people were all young people, a little younger than her. When the group opened on BBS, there were obviously fifteen people, but in reality including her, there were only a total of five people who came. This was also very normal. It was literally two different worlds online and offline. To have an attendance rate a quarter of the total at this line of meeting was already pretty good. Xiao Yan adjusted the angle of the rearview mirror, and checked her makeup. There were no problems, so she drove the car next to them, stopped, and got out of the car carrying her bag.
Evidently, the Mercedes-Benz S500 she drove had caused psychological pressure on the few young people. They were talking jovially at first, but had simultaneously quieted down in a spontaneous manner. Their gazes were somewhat complex. They probably all walked or had taken the public bus here. There were no cars in sight nearby.
”Everyone is from Wang Haige, right? My BBS ID is ‘Spark’.” She gracefully greeted them.
”Hello, I’m Xiao Niu.” A man wearing sunglasses and a casual jacket spoke.
”I’m Lea.” A slightly short and slightly chubby girl smiled. Her smile was very friendly.
”Black Jack,” a tall and slender sporty man said.
”I am Gu Tianle, ‘Gu’, as in stocks. Yea…although it’s about to become ‘Gu Tianku’ [1]…”
An average looking guy wearing a denim shirt, a backwards baseball cap, an earring in his left ear and growing a very chic beard gave an embarrassed smile.
”Apologies, there was a traffic jam at the city’s center, I came a bit late…is there anyone else who’s coming?” Xiao Yan asked.
Gu Tianle was this group’s group leader, but he was obviously a bit powerless offline. Maybe this was his first time having arranged this type of gathering offline after having mustered up his courage. He looked around and said with uncertainty, ”Probably…not?”
Lea spoke up. ”Those who wanted to come should have all arrived already. How about we go first?” Everyone did not object.
They were the second group to come visit Amazing Fate Pet Shop through a group on BBS. After the group one visitors had come, there was a big commotion on BBS. One reason was because no one had thought that anchorperson Snowy with such small fame in the local city would be part of group one. The second reason was because Snowy’s live broadcast had revealed that Amazing Fate Pet Shop’s cats could perform stunts, and they were even collective stunts.
At the beginning, the group of spectators on BBS gave a first reaction of the video being fabricated, but this theory was quickly denied. That was because it was a live broadcast, so it wasn’t possible for it to have been fabricated. Also, a few people with small fame on BBS confirmed it from the side, and the famous bumping king and bumping mahatma had even more so patted their chests to guarantee the authenticity of the video. Thus, the organization of the second group was imperative. Led by Gu Letian, the second group was set up, and thus constructed this temporary group.
Everyone’s free time was calculated in the group. It was hard to cater to everyone’s preferences, but this time period was finally decided upon. Five of them came, and among the rest of the people, some backed away at the last minute. Some expressed that they couldn’t match up with the time and that they would go by themselves when they had time, and not with the group. Xiao Yan looked at the traffic signs and said to them, ”I can’t park here. I will drive straight to the entrance of the shop. Everyone get in? We should all be able to fit with a little squeeze.” They exchanged glances, all hoping that someone would make a decision.
