Xiaomeng, who felt suppressed in her daily life, unleashed her true self in online gaming. Initially, when she started playing the game with Qian Sisi, Xiaomeng was actually one of the top-ranked players on the server too; however, she played as the popular, sexy red-robed Mage, and because the character was so pervasive, she couldn't rank higher than Qian Sisi, but that was already quite an achievement!
It was only after Xiaomeng started dating Chen Xiang that she found out he also played the game. Unlike the physically fit and academically gifted Chen Xiang, in the game, he was just a noob who could be easily bullied by anyone—in short, he had no talent for gaming.
So, Xiaomeng hid her main account and played the game with Chen Xiang under an alternate one, pretending to be an even worse newbie than him and often asking Chen Xiang to teach her.
Hence, for Xiaomeng, exposing her alternate identity was quite a significant event!
