I Have Yet to Become a Doll Today - C.471 - : Stop Showing Off

Chapter 471: Chapter 471: Stop Showing Off

“Not far off, Shen Fei was also surrounded by a group of people.

They were all in their early twenties, around the same age as Shen Fei, and they were also discussing matters related to the game of hide and seek.

In stark contrast to Tan Xiao’s lively chattering, their discussions here were heated, yet calm and rational. Everyone was attempting to analyze and summarize Shen Fei’s commentary, hoping to learn something.

Inevitably, Jiang Hao’s name came up in their conversation.

“…According to what Shen Fei said, it seems that this Jiang Hao, this isn’t his first time doing something like this.”

“Killing is much easier than completing a game. They guarantee their survival rates by grabbing items and piecing together puzzles, showing absolutely no humanity.”

“Next time we come across a person wearing white gloves, we should all be careful. We might encounter people associated with them…”

The ruckus from Tan Xiao’s side would sometimes overshadow the conversation on Shen Fei’s side.

A few showed their distaste.

“Those are just people who managed to escape using puzzles, they didn’t even clear the game. Yet they boast as if they’re so great, it’s laughable!”

“Not surprising at all, there are a few notorious braggarts over there. They’ve barely played the game, but boast as if they’re the best!”

“I really can’t stand this sort of person, aren’t they trying to steal Shen Fei’s spotlight?!” A young man said to Shen Fei, “Shen Fei, didn’t you gain a bonus item? Show them off, let those ignorant people widen their horizons!”

Shen Fei felt awkward and declined, “Don’t say that… Tan Xiao is pretty amazing… I didn’t really help much in the game…” freēwēbηovel.c૦m

“You’re way too modest!” A friend by Shen Fei’s side gave an exasperated sigh, shook his head and said, “Shen Fei! Even modesty should have a limit, are you really going to let others steal your spotlight?”

Shen Fei, feeling embarrassed, shook his head, “As long as everyone makes it out safe, that’s good enough. Having the spotlight or not… isn’t important.”

This was what he truly meant.

In the past, he might feel resentful in such circumstances, but after facing life and death experiences together, one realizes that fighting for the spotlight or saving face doesn’t matter, and there’s no need to be critical.

Nevertheless, everyone dismissed his words as modesty and humility.

“Forget it. If Shen Fei doesn’t want to, let’s not force him… Those guys just talk big, but really, they’re ignorant and incompetent. Did you hear that guy called Tan Xiao reading Mary’s rhyme? He pronounced ‘doll’ as ‘dough’, his pronunciation was hilarious. I wonder where that bumpkin comes from, never seen the world…”

“Have you seen the world?”

A sudden woman’s voice rang out.

There are few women in the base, and even fewer young ladies so a crisp and soft voice like this isn’t common, especially when it’s icy cold.

“Bai…Bai Youwei…” Shen Fei stands up uneasily.

Bai Youwei, however, didn’t look at him and instead directed her indifferent gaze at the young man who spoke earlier:

“Your so-called worldly experience is speaking standard American English? Having polite conversation and organized dialogue?

Do these things make you proud?

If your parents did not send you to learn English, if you were not born in a well-off family, if you grew up in a poor remote area without internet, would you have any of these things?

In the end, everything was given to you! There’s nothing on you that you earned through hard work, so what do you have to be proud of?”

The young man was flushed and embarrassed by her words.

Bai Youwei scoffed, ridiculing him, “Bumpkin? Never seen the world? Do you understand what it means to ‘see the world’? Seeing the world doesn’t just mean looking up, but also down! Look at where you stand, don’t get carried away!”
