"Wow, you're good! Your rank is so high?"
"Of course!" Desiree proudly showed her equipment. "Look at these. Not only did they cost me a lot of pocket money, but also a lot of effort!"
"I have a lot of equipment too, but my level is not as high as yours!" Toph gave her a thumbs-up. "It seems like you've deployed your resources well. Very strategic!"
"Cough..." Renee's expression changed as she looked at Toph, chuckling lightly, "Playing games all day long… Be careful not to let it consume you!"
"Renee, you don't understand!" Desiree laughed, "This game is called God of War, and it's incredibly fun! You start as a small soldier and gradually rise to become a general, expanding your territory step by step. The game tests your patience, perseverance, strategic thinking, and more!
"Heh! Maybe you won't quite understand anyway since most girls like you don't enjoy playing military games."
Renee glanced at her. "Aren't you a girl?"
"Her?" Toph burst into laughter. "She's not. She's our bro!"
"That's right!" Desiree squinted. "It's strange. I feel like I should've been born a boy. I get along better with boys, and our discussions are more in sync! I guess I was meant to be a boy!"
Desiree paused the game to look at Zuko with a smile, tilting her body slightly toward him. "Isn't that so, Zuko?"
Zuko did not respond and "unintentionally" moved his cushion to the other side of Lina. Now, with a wall on one side and Lina on the other, no one else could get close to him.
Desiree was taken aback. She froze before she dragged her cushion back to its original position.
"This establishment is so slow. I'm getting parched waiting!" She struggled to find a topic and noticed Zuko's cup on the table.
Zuko had moved to another side of Lina, but his cup had yet to follow.
Just as Zuko was about to reach for it, Desiree smirked slyly as she quickly took the cup for a sip!
