Chapter 131 Play Games

Branden made a move, but his actions shocked people even more. “If you’re tired and want to rest, I’ll take you downstairs!”

It was only one elevator ride away from upstairs to downstairs. But Branden said he would take her downstairs! Everyone could tell that Branden really cared about the beautiful woman in front of him.

Watching Branden’s astonishing behavior on the side, Triston clicked his tongue secretly. How did he not know Branden had such a good temper?

Sure enough, it was a world where only good-looking people could be treated kindly, and he had no fairness. If one were nice to Catherine, she would also show them some respect.

Audrey didn’t want to leave, and Branden had just arrived, so it really wasn’t the right time to go. She adjusted her posture and leaned back in her chair without leaving. Seeing that she hadn’t left, Branden also put away the thought of leaving.

“Do you want something to drink?” The man’s low voice sounded lazy and hoarse. Catherine had little interest in alcohol. Audrey had already drunk a lot, so she didn’t plan to drink anymore.

“Soda!” Catherine answered faintly. Before Branden could do anything, Triston had already stepped forward. “I’ll serve it. I’m the host, at least. How can I let you guests serve yourself? I’ll do it!”

Carrying a bottle of cold beer for Branden and a soda for Catherine, Triston obediently stepped back. His service was thoughtful and considerate.

The apartment Triston bought was about 3,000 square feet, with all the walls in the middle being knocked, and the oversized living room was enough for everyone to enjoy themselves.

Triston had spent a lot of money on purchasing a complete set of sound equipment during the renovation, ensuring that its sound effect was better than that of hotels.

However, although the lively room had been completely opened up, an invisible barrier in the middle seemed to separate the two sides of the room.

The left side was filled with singing, dancing, and bustling, while the right was quiet and indifferent. Branden sat beside Catherine, one drinking beer and the other drinking  soda, and the others dared not to come up to interrupt them.

They were curious, but neither of them dared to step forward. After all, they didn’t want to lose their lives. Neither Branden nor Catherine spoke. Branden had a cold temper and didn’t talk much. Catherine was even colder than him.

After a while, someone finally spoke up. Not surprisingly, the person who spoke was Branden. “Kathy, what game did you play with Bryan last time?” Catherine tilted her head. Her dark eyes met Branden’s gaze. “You want to play too?”

The man’s thin lips slightly raised, his gaze deep was serene, as if everything was so natural. He handed her his cell phone, saying, “Please download it for me!”

His phone’s screen lit up. Catherine was instantly attracted by the picture on his screen because she recognized the image as the very picture she had shared in her WhatsApp moments.

Ordinary people would think that it was just a black picture, but only Catherine could tell the secret at a glance. Because the image was designed by herself, and there was a dark pattern in it that ordinary people couldn’t recognize.

Catherine just glanced at it and then moved her gaze away. After she helped Branden download the game, she handed him his cell phone.

The internet speed of Branden’s phone was exceptionally fast. At a glance, it was clear that his phone had been specially set up. She handed Branden his phone with the game downloaded. “Here you go!”

Although Branden had never played games, he knew the basics. After logging in, he saw Catherine’s account inside his friend’s list. He raised his eyebrows and looked toward Catherine. “Let’s play it?”

Catherine was feeling bored. Since Branden wanted to play, she could accompany him to play. Without saying a word, Catherine logged in.

Branden invited her to play together, so after she logged in, Branden formed a team with her. Seeing that she was online, Branden was about to start the game. But he saw that someone had applied to join their team then.

After a quick glance, he realized that it was Bryan who wanted to join them. Branden clicked refuse without even thinking.

Branden didn’t expect to find two strangers on their team when he started the game. He looked up at Catherine with surprised eyes. “Did you invite them?”

Catherine sneered. “You started with a team of four!”

All right, Branden felt like he was being taunted. He didn’t know the game had this kind of operation. He felt disdained and said, “The game developer isn’t smart. Why doesn’t it ask me how many team players I needed for the game before I started?”

Branden was focused on his phone’s interface and didn’t see Catherine’s eyes gradually darken after he said that.

However, Catherine admitted that the problem raised by the man did exist. She needed to arrange for the technical department to add an extra step to save some of the game idiots from not knowing how to operate it.

The game had already started. Branden was not a tangled personality, so he naturally wouldn’t be entangled in such a small problem in front of him.

“Do we need to exit and start over?” he asked. Catherine didn’t care. Playing with Branden, a complete novice, might not be as good as playing with two other strangers anyway. She didn’t bother to quit!

“Go on!”

After she said that, Branden naturally had no intention of exiting.

Branden’s operating interface was still the most primitive one. He had only watched Catherine play it without having played the game himself.

When one of the other teammates invited him for a joint skydive, Branden didn’t click to accept or decline. Only after seeing Catherine’s acceptance did he click to accept.

He didn’t realize that the other teammate had invited Catherine to follow him long before asking him. Because the other teammate saw Catherine was a girl from her account.

Catherine had always been lazy to operate before landing, so the system defaulted to follow her teammate.

These two other teammates knew each other. The intelligent system would usually match the corresponding teammates according to each other’s performance. For example, Catherine and Branden were on their respective friend lists. They knew each other.

The teammates matched by the system would also be people who knew each other. Catherine and Branden were No. 1 and No. 2, respectively, and their two teammates were male and female. The female was No. 3, and the male was No. 4.

Now, No. 4 was in charge of taking them skydiving. He picked a place with relatively abundant supplies and few people.

Unfortunately, they were unlucky this time. Although they had chosen a safe place, quite a few teams were landing there. Catherine swept a glance. There were at least four teams in this place.

Just after they landed, No. 3, the girl spoke. Her voice was filled with dislike. “Why did we match two people who don’t talk? Can you guys make it? If you get shot, don’t ask us to come to get you up!”

After hearing her complaint, No. 4 hurriedly consoled her, “Don’t be afraid. Don’t you still have me if they get attacked? I promise to take you to the end game.”

No. 3 said, “Our team can only rely on you. I have great faith in your marksmanship!” Letting the two teammates boast each other up, Catherine picked up two guns. She threw one of them at Branden’s feet.

She didn’t turn on her mike because it wasn’t needed. Branden was right beside her.

“Take the gun and stay close to me!”  Just after she said those words, she and Branden heard a gunshot coming, followed by the screams of their female teammate coming from inside their headphones, “Ahh…”
