BXBX NOVEL Chapter 678 i kind of want to do that now as well
He raised his hand and waved at the royal box. The people on the audience from that side thought that he was waving at them and many of those who were sitting there shouted like fangirls in a concert of their favorite artist.
Even Luo Yan was surprised by such a reception. Actually, ever since he walked out from the ’bench area’ and heard the cheering of the people, his surprise just kept on increasing. With these people’s reaction to him, one would think that he’s a superstar or something.
Well, he couldn’t really blame them. After all, he’s this charming and beautiful. If he was another person, he would also be a fan of himself.
[Mashter, everyone likes you!] – Eclipse said excitedly.
Luo Yan was about to answer when he heard a very distinct snort from the front. And that was followed by a mocking voice.
"Hah, you really must think that you’re all that."
Luo Yan glanced at Rosetta and tilted his head to the side. Kidding aside, he truly wondered why this girl was so antagonistic towards him.
"May I ask why you seem to hate me? I know for a fact that the two of us haven’t met before, meaning there couldn’t have been a time where I offended you or something. So, why are you so antagonistic? Like I killed your dog or something. It truly baffles me. Would you mind enlightening me to the reason why? Or is it because of a childish reason like you being jealous of my popularity?"
Rosetta glared at Luo Yan. Her expression looked like she was about to explode at any second. Obviously looking very offended by his question. Which was so hypocritical. Shouldn’t he be the one offended after receiving such hate when he obviously hadn’t done anything?
But before Rosetta could anything, the Duke of Hearts suddenly floated between them.
"Oh, this is such an interesting conversation!" He floated to Rosetta’s side and a mic appeared in his hand out of nowhere. He pushed the mic in front of Rosetta, as if asking her for an interview. "So, what’s your answer? Why do you hate Noctis? Did he really kill your dog? Or are you just jealous of him?"
Everyone in the audience heard this. Rosetta – or should we call her Ding Rong? – also knew this. That’s why she even felt more humiliated. How could she answer that question? If she did and she told the truth, then, she would only look like a fool.
Who would have thought this guy would actually ask her for the reason? And now, even this damn duke was broadcasting this question to everyone here. She was at the spotlight, something that she had always enjoyed. But right now, she wasn’t enjoying it at all.
She glared at the white-haired elf. She could see the mirth in those blue eyes. Meaning that he was enjoying this situation. The anger that bubbled up inside her just intensified. This bastard must have asked that question on purpose so he could humiliate her.
Just thinking of that possibility, the anger just shot to her head and said in a fit, "Because I don’t like you being paired with him!"
Ding Rong was startled by what she suddenly blurted out. This was one of the things she disliked about herself. When too much anger got ahold of her, she wouldn’t use her brain and she would just say whatever was on her mind. Getting her into trouble a couple of times.
But what she said just now was what she truly felt. The reason why she disliked Noctis was because of how people were pairing him up with YUN. She had been a fan of YUN since she accidentally watched a video of him online last year.
That video was of him defeating a dungeon boss. He looked so handsome and manly that Ding Rong simply found herself watching the video over and over again. Then, what came next was her searching everything about this YUN. She discovered Arcadia and found more videos of YUN.
Since then, she just fell on that YUN rabbit hole.
That’s why she decided on playing Arcadia as well. Because it was the only way she could possibly meet YUN. She made herself as beautiful as she could be when making her avatar, choosing the 100x beautification.
Since playing the game, she experienced things that she had never experienced in real life – getting the attention of other boys. Something that had never happened to her before. She became drunk with the attention they were giving her. It was something she never knew she wanted until she experienced it herself.
So, YUN was put at the back of her mind. After all, she barely heard anything about her since playing Arcadia. Why focused on him when she was having too much fun being showered with compliments and gifts by other guys?
That was until that rumor about YUN being seen on a date with Noctis at Tropical Land surfaced. After that, she often read posts about the two on Weibo and the game forum. Other players were even shipping them.
Ding Rong just hated it. That’s why when he found out that Noctis was participating in the Rookie Carnival, she also signed up as well. So, she could show YUN and everyone else that the elf wasn’t as good as everyone made him out to be.
[Mashter, Eclipse really wants to scratch the face of that girl.] – Eclipse said.
Luo Yan narrowed his eyes at Rosetta. [Yeah, I kind of want to do that now as well.]
