Chapter 26: Innocent Online Game Master (Part 2)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
In order for him to protect Lin Xinxin in the game, Tang Mo had to become a game master quickly. Thus, he often demanded money from his sister and family to buy equipment.
When they didn’t give it to him, even though he didn’t resort to violence, he would spew all sorts of ugly remarks. The proprietor tolerated it all.
As their family weren’t well-to-do, she couldn’t sit and watch as their parents got cheated by Tang Mo. And she couldn’t dissuade her parents either.
Her parents refused to believe that their son would spin lies to steal his own family’s money. The proprietor was at a loss and could only try to persuade them patiently while she supported her greedy brother. At last, the last of her family savings had been taken away by a ridiculous excuse that Tang Mo had conjured. Their father had an accident at the factory he worked at and they couldn’t even afford to pay for the surgery because of his dishonest behavior.
That was the last straw.
As for Lin Xinxin, she was probably a b*tch. She wasn’t interested in Tang Mo, yet she showered him with concern. She had fully won Tang Mo over. The proprietor had put aside her pride and gone to beg Lin Xinxin. She wanted Lin Xinxin to forget about Tang Mo since she didn’t like him.
However, Lin Xinxin had acted like the victim. The headline, ‘Second year student involved in bullying case’ had hit the top of the school’s forum. The students accused the proprietor of being arrogant and an aggressive bully to her roommate.
She had no idea what Lin Xinxin had told Tang Mo which resulted in him charging up to her door. He bellowed,
“I like her and I’m willing to do anything for her! Even if you’re my sister, you’re not allowed to bully her!”

Yu Chu pressed her palm against her forehead as she recalled the memories.
She turned on the ancient-looking laptop as she stared at the icon of ‘Everyone in the entire realm’.
Hmmm… There was another melodramatic secondary plot to the main story.
The proprietor liked Li Haorui, the most handsome guy in school. He was an expert and master in the game and by coincidence, he got to know Lin Xinxin as well. He had recruited her as his disciple and was attracted to her as she was pure and innocent.
Lin Xinxin and the proprietor were roommates, hence she knew that the proprietor liked Li Haorui.
After Li Haorui confessed his love for her, she went to the proprietor in tears and claimed that she didn’t do it deliberately. She didn’t like Li Haorui… The proprietor was initially quite heartbroken. However, when Lin Xinxin cried, she went to comfort her roommate instead.
However, Li Haorui went to look for her the next day. He said coldly, “Don’t you ever try to seek trouble with Xinxin. I don’t know you and it’s none of your business whom I like.”
The proprietor most probably wanted to spew some expletives.
On the same day, the school forum’s trending post was ‘Second year female student failed in her one-sided love and harbored a grudge towards her roommate.’
Yu Chu was speechless.
She could tell that the proprietor was a good girl based on her wish.
She hadn’t wished to be embroiled with Li Haorui and didn’t even want to take revenge on Lin Xinxin. She only wanted to take care of her brother to prevent misfortune from happening to their father.
However, the story was ongoing and Tang Mo had entered the game. Lin Xinxin had become Li Haorui’s disciple.
But there were probably no feelings involved yet.
Her mission was to prevent the Tang family misfortune from happening. However, Yu Chu hadn’t planned on trying to work on the father.
That was because the system had bound her to this body which would definitely be in close proximity with Master so she would have a chance to get near to Master. Because of this, she couldn’t leave.
Without her eying the plot, the story would be forced to revert back to normal.
The father would definitely be injured.
As for Tang Mo, his relationship with his sister had been hostile. She reckoned it would be harder for her to control him the more she wanted to advise him.
So right now she had to accomplish her main mission… and she shall start with the game.
