Chapter 190: No Longer a Stranger
Apart from more than ten system messages, the remaining 20 plus messages were all unexpected friend messages from Free Flower Pistil.
Chu Nan opened the earliest message.
“Alright, coward. Seeing that you’re so sincere, I don’t want you to repay me so many times. However, I haven’t played the game for a long time. Your friend request has already expired. Therefore, I’m magnanimous now and take the initiative to add you again. You can’t reject me again.”
Chu Nan smiled and glanced at the time that this message was sent. He discovered that it was nearly half a month ago and it had indeed exceeded the effective period of applying for a friend.
He clicked on the next line.
“Hey, coward, aren’t you adding me?”
This message was only 8 hours away from the first message.
The third message was still less than a day away.
“Coward! Why won’t you add me? Could it be that you were lying to me after saying so much?”
“I’m not lying to you. I’m just too busy to play the game.” Chu Nan sighed.
In fact, he did not take this matter to heart. Therefore, he had never thought of playing the game after returning to the Purple Cloud Planet. Today, in order to provide Chu Xiaoxi with an occasion where she could often fight in the future, he gave her a Martial Soul game access terminal and logged in again.
Otherwise, he would still have to go to Earth to participate in the Star Cloud Academy’s test. It would probably be impossible for him to play the game for a long time.
However, when he recalled Star Cloud Academy, Chu Nan immediately recalled that this Free Flower Pistil was said to have long been specially accepted by Star Cloud Academy.
If he could successfully enter Star Cloud Academy, he might have the chance to meet this Free Flower Pistil in the academy in the future.
Thinking about it this way, if the two of them happened to meet in Star Cloud Academy and did not know each other, it would be really interesting.
When he thought of this, Chu Nan hurriedly flipped through the information sent by Free Flower Pistil.
In the beginning, Free Flower Pistil only complained about why Chu Nan did not accept her friend request.
Later on, when she saw that Chu Nan had not played the game for a few days, she became worried for him again.
“Coward, did something happen to you again?”
“Coward, how long will it take for you to come up again?”
“Coward, why aren’t you coming up…”
…
“Coward, actually, I only want to find someone to chat with me now. I’m very unhappy at my aunt’s house, but I can’t say this to my parents and brother. I’m afraid they’ll be worried, so I can only talk to you, a guy I don’t know. In the end, you’re not here.”
“Coward, I really hope that Star Cloud Academy will start school immediately. Then, I can find an excuse not to stay here anymore.”
“Coward…”
…
When she saw the last few lines, Free Flower Pistil probably felt that Chu Nan would really not come online and treated his inbox as a place to vent her frustrations.
From these messages, it could be seen that she was living very poorly in her aunt’s house, but she did not have the ability to change this environment, so her tone was very aggrieved.
Chu Nan could understand her depression. After all, she was living under someone else’s roof and there would always be many inconvenient places.
Moreover, according to the situation revealed by the Free Flower Pistil, her aunt’s family did not have a good relationship with her parents. In that case, in order to enter Star Cloud Academy, she had to come to Earth early and live in her aunt’s house. She would definitely be despised by others. It would be strange if she could live happily.
He flipped through them one by one and soon saw the last one.
“Coward, it’s been two months since you sent me the last message. You haven’t been playing the game for so long. Did something really happen? The last time you said that you were unwilling to add me as a friend, it was because you didn’t want to casually add a stranger in the game. However, we’ve chatted for so long that we can’t be considered strangers anymore. I don’t know why, but from the beginning, I don’t seem to treat you as a stranger. Perhaps… it’s because you spoiled my achievement the moment you came up and made me have a deep impression of you. No matter what, I hope you can be safe and don’t let anything happen to you. Star Cloud Academy is about to start school. I have to prepare for my admission and won’t be able to play the game for a period of time. If you can play the game again, after seeing this information, you must remember to send me a message and let me know.”
Seeing such a long message, Chu Nan was slightly touched.
Last time, he had been lying in the hospital for more than three months after the battle with Maruk and was unable to log into the game. This Free Flower Pistil had once expressed her worry.
Now, he had not logged into the game for two months purely because of trivial matters. He did not expect it to cause Free Flower Pistil to worry again.
She said that she did not treat Chu Nan as a stranger, so after he saw her message the last time and chose to add her as a friend, he did not treat her as a stranger.
Chu Nan glanced at the time when this message was sent and was surprised to discover that it was only sent three days ago and was far from expired.
He did not hesitate to pull out the command window of this message and choose to agree after the notification: “Free Flower Pistil requests to add you as a friend. Do you agree?”
“Congratulations, you have already become friends with Free Flower Pistil. You can interact with the other party in all aspects. I wish you a happy gaming experience with your friend.”
Hearing the system notification, Chu Nan opened his friend list and discovered that there was indeed an ID of Free Flower Pistil.
Before this, his friend list only had Dong Fang, Rose, and Luo Lan. Now that there was Free Flower Pistil, it still seemed a little empty.
Moreover, these four friends were not online at this time, so it looked even more cold.
Chu Nan thought for a moment and opened the ID of Free Flower Pistil to send her a private message.
“Heh, I’m online now. Thank you for your concern. Nothing happened to me recently…”
Chu Nan suddenly paused.
It was not appropriate to say that nothing had happened to him during this period of time. One had to know that because of the Wind God’s Forest Crossing Leg Technique, he and his family had once been threatened and endangered.
Of course, there was no need to tell Free Flower Pistil these things.
“…I only accidentally entered the game today. Fortunately, I saw that the message you sent to add me as a friend last time did not expire. Now that we’re already friends, we don’t need to rely on troublesome system messages to chat in the future. We can chat freely at any time. Of course, the premise is that we’re both online.”
Chu Nan could not help but smile bitterly.
It was strange. Apart from the first time he defeated Free Flower Pistil, the two of them were at the same time. For various reasons, the two of them had perfectly missed each other, as if there was some force obstructing their communication.

Fortunately, they had finally overcome this obstacle and become good friends. They could always maintain their relationship with each other. Then, there would always be opportunities to be on the same page in the future.
Chu Nan originally wanted to say that he wanted to participate in the Star Cloud Academy’s test and would also make a trip to Earth, but when he recalled that he did not have a hundred percent confidence in passing the test, it was meaningless to say this now. He skipped this part and added another sentence after thinking for a moment.
“If you feel unhappy, you’re welcome to look for me at any time. Let me tell you, I have a sister who often hears her complain to me about various things. She’s very good at dealing with problems in this aspect. Perhaps she can give you some good advice.”
After carefully reading this message and confirming that there was no problem, Chu Nan chose to send it out and exited the game.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Chu Xiaoxi’s curious face.
“Heh, Brother, are you done trying? Is it good? Is it fun?”
Chu Nan composed himself but did not answer Chu Xiaoxi’s question. Instead, he asked, “Xiaoxi, are you troubled recently?”
“Ah?” Chu Xiaoxi was immediately stunned. She blinked her large eyes in confusion.
