Picking Up Fragments in PUBG
Chapter 20: Just Like Love

She just remembered the news caused by that silly girl falling in love with a stranger a few days ago. She didn't expect that the one she fell for was... Little Ming.

As Tuantuan realized this, her heart tightened, as if something precious was being coveted and observed by others.

"No, even though you liked Little Ming first, Little Ming hasn't agreed to be with you. I still have a chance! Fair competition, I won't lose!"

Thinking this way, Tuantuan regained her confidence and prepared to share the good news with Jiang Siming. However, she didn't expect Jiang Siming was also on another call...

Jiang Siming truly hadn't expected that within two days, he'd have two female anchors after him, and both were very popular.

Just after ending Tuantuan's call, he received a call from that silly girl.

The silly girl also disclosed her identity and intentions. During their warm conversation, Jiang Siming couldn't possibly reject her.

She had even booked him for a month.

Regarding this month-long commitment, Jiang Siming felt a bit troubled. Would he really have to accompany her for a whole month?

"Brother Ming, don't worry. Although I've booked you for a month, I won't force you to play with me, or set specific times. I'll pay for the month, as long as you can play when you have time."

The silly girl was very understanding.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Siming naturally breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Thank you then. That day when you invited me, I had something to do and wasn't at the computer. When I came back to the lobby after handling things, you had just logged off."

Jiang Si Ming felt it necessary to clarify. After all, he had made the girl wait for him for an hour.

"Really?"

The silly girl was pleasantly surprised. She had thought Jiang Siming was intentionally avoiding her, but it turned out to be a misunderstanding and a coincidence.

"Really."

"Hehe~"

The silly girl, relieved from her worries, felt extremely happy, and her sweet smile returned to her face.

With a somewhat unusual feeling and the stealthy little secrets of a young girl in her heart...

"Brother Ming, do you have time now? Shall we play a game together?"

Regaining his lost companionship job cheered up Jiang Siming, who was originally feeling down. Seeing it was still early, Jiang Siming agreed.

The silly girl, who had been away from her computer for almost half an hour, returned from outside to her live streaming computer. Her friend, Erqian, who had been covering for her live stream, immediately stood up to vacate the seat.

"How's it going? You seem really happy," Erqian teased.

"Wow! Brother Ming agreed to duo-play with me!" The silly girl didn't hide her joy.

The audience in the live streaming room smelled the scent of love in the air.

"Tsk tsk, earlier she was all gloomy and on the brink of despair, and now she's reborn?"

"Indeed, a woman in love has negative IQ."

"The old woman is deeply trapped in the swamp of love and can't extricate herself!"

"Old lady, don't be too happy too soon. It seems Tuantuan also likes Ming God. You've got a rival."

"The one above is right. Tuantuan seems to have fallen for Ming God too. Ah, when will I ever be as outstanding as him?"

...

The chat said many things, but the silly girl didn't have the mood to read them now. She quickly put on her headphones, logged into the game, and waited on YY. R̃а�

This posture of waiting for a lover is just like being in love...

"You look like a consort waiting for the emperor's favor," Erqian teased.

"Get lost!" the silly girl blushed and scolded with a smile.

Before long, Jiang Siming's YY profile picture appeared in the channel.

"Brother Ming, you're here!"

"Yeah, did you invite me, or should I invite you?"

"Sure!"

Overjoyed, the silly girl pulled Jiang Siming into the game lobby.

Unlike her, who adorned her game character with various skins, Jiang Siming's character was just an ordinary male character in a cheap short-sleeved shirt.

Coincidentally, there was a major update for PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG) today, introducing a snow map that they hadn't played before.

Jiang Siming and the silly girl, both unfamiliar with the map, found themselves in a snowy landscape.

As a girl from the southern part of the country, the silly girl couldn't help but let out a scream of excitement at the sight of the snowy scenery, feeling surrounded by romantic vibes.

"It's so beautiful, right, Brother Ming!"

Jiang Si Ming, also seeing the new map for the first time, couldn't help but nod in approval. The map designed by Bluehole was truly becoming more and more beautiful.

From islands to deserts, then to Miramar, and now the snowy terrain, the exquisite level of each map was continuously improving.

With the funding from Mr. Vine, Bluehole had transformed from a small workshop into a large company, making billions in game profits every year. PUBG had become the leading first-person shooter (FPS) game, rivalling even League of Legends in global player online numbers and sometimes surpassing it.

After three years of operation, PUBG was still popular, with the number of players in chicken-eating matches and LOL players in internet cafes being almost equal.

In Jiang Siming's world, PUBG's anti-cheating measures were highly successful, combined with effective publicity and continuous updates to the game content. This made the game long-lasting and increasingly popular. Many celebrities also loved playing it.

"Brother Ming, come and see quickly!"

The silly girl called out in haste.

Jiang Siming found her next to a utility pole. "What's wrong?"

The silly girl picked up a snowball from her waist and said to Jiang Siming, "Learn from me, switch to the first-person perspective, and throw the snowball at the utility pole!"

Although he didn't understand why, Jiang Siming followed her instructions.

With a thud, the snowball hit the utility pole, and the snowflakes splashed, twinkling like tiny stars under the sunlight.

"There are stars! Brother Ming, did you see them?" the silly girl asked with innocence.

Jiang Siming chuckled and replied in agreement, "Yeah, I saw them. They look nice."

"Hehe," the silly girl giggled happily.

For some reason, all the viewers in the live broadcast couldn't help but smile.

They seemed to witness the budding of a beautiful love.

The waiting time soon ended, and everyone boarded the plane.

Over the snowy city, the aerial view was breathtaking.

Jiang Siming was also immersed in the vast and beautiful snowy landscape. Unexpectedly, he noticed a red light flashing in a seaside location on the snowy map.

"Let's go here," Jiang Siming marked the spot immediately, and the silly girl naturally had no objections.

Even if Jiang Siming pointed to the ocean, she wouldn't hesitate to jump.

As they left the plane and glided towards their destination, they found that the parachute technique had been updated. Holding down shift would now cause a vertical descent. The altitude and the distance to glide had significant differences, and landing involved a sideways somersault.

This undoubtedly increased the difficulty of parachuting, making it more realistic.

However, this posed no obstacles for Jiang Siming. Instead, he found it more manageable.

The higher the difficulty, the longer it took for others to land after him.

In fact, by the time Jiang Siming had already landed, the silly girl was still descending rapidly, her parachute not even open yet.

If this silly girl were an opponent, Jiang Siming could make her die in the Nordic snowy sky without even opening her parachute.
