Xue Yuantong pulled out two controllers from the drawer and started the computer's FC emulator, choosing the game "Hot Blood Story."
As dynamic electronic music began playing, they both tackled the game together.
Xue Chuchu had never used a controller and was clumsy, her pale fingers pressing lightly, afraid she might break it.
On the contrary, Xue Yuantong furiously mashed buttons, punching on screen bullies as if possessed by a school tyrant, her arrogance unmatched.
Chuchu didn't need to help her; Yuantong single-handedly beat everyone in the game and continued to brag arrogantly.
Just then, Yuantong's phone on the desk rang, and she hit pause.
While she took the call, Chuchu examined the controller, remembering how in the village she had seen other kids playing with it plugged into a television, surrounded by a crowd of watching children, creating quite a lively scene.
Chuchu never had a chance to touch it.
