”What did you say?”
”Don't think that we would just take what you said lightly just because you're pretty!”
”Why don't you apologize, huh, princess?”
Zhu Lian nervously swallowed her saliva and stepped back.Her back hitting the tree behind her.But despite that, she still said in a queenly manner, ”Why should I apologize when I'm only telling the truth?”
”You--!”
One of them stretched out his arm and was about to hold her.But then, all of them heard rustling from above.After that, someone suddenly jumped down from the tree behind her.It was a tall boy probably of the same age as them.And he landed between her and the three boys.
”You ruined my sleep,” he said coldly.
The three seemed to recognize the tall boy because of the scared expression they showed.
”We didn't mean to, Shen Ji Yun.Actually, we're leaving just now.”

”Yes, yes, that's right.”
And the three scampered off like mice being chased by a cat.
The tall boy didn't bother to look at them and just walked forward.
Zhu Lian seemed to awaken from her trance just now and quickly called out to the tall boy who inadvertently saved her.”Wait!”
The boy stopped and looked back at her.The first thing she saw was those pair of startling blue eyes.They seemed to penetrate deep into her soul.And she couldn't speak for a second.She just felt her heart beating faster and faster and faster.
Being so nervous, she clamped up again.”Who told you to save me?”
”Who said I saved you?” the boy coldly retorted back.
Then he continued walking away from there, without as much as looking back at her.
Zhu Lian just stood there watching the boy's back.Her mind constantly whispering the boy's name – Shen Ji Yun.

And that's the beginning of her tragedy.
=====
Zhu Lian then did everything she could to find all the relevant information about the boy named Shen Ji Yun.It was not that hard since he was pretty famous in his school.But it was all just superficial information.Like what family he belonged to and who his friends were.
Then she found out that he was playing the VR game Arcadia and that the team he created won the first championship to some tournament.So, she also decided to play the game and make a team.When she found out that he would go to T University, she also decided to go there.
But despite doing all those things, she was still at the same position as she had been more than three years ago.
A million miles away from him.
