Revenge of the Hideous Lady by Moonlight

Xyla Quest soon lost herself as his fingers curled around hers. Her heart pounded in her chest, and her cheeks were hot.

It was the last bit of rationality in her mind that made her shrink away from his grasp. She pushed him away with all her strength, panting, "Stanley Batton, if you try to touch me again, I'm not going to talk to you for the next three days. No, five days! No, six days!"

"I won't do it anymore, honey." Stanley Batton comforted her with a good-natured look, though the mischief in his gaze had given him away.

Xyla immediately fled from the room, running away from him as fast as she could.

When Xyla arrived at Team QPG's base, she found that Alex was there too.

Professional gamers like them had, more or less, crossed paths with one another during the tournaments. Moreover, Alex and her team members had a meal together before. Xyla could see that they were all getting along well.

Alex was currently sitting on the couch, happily chatting with the boys.

As usual, he was wearing his typical silver-rimmed round glasses, with an oversized jersey and a pair of blue jeans.

The picture of him sitting together with the group of young men from Team QPG was extraordinarily beautiful.

Team QPG itself was a team made out of stunning gamers. Alex's presence really was the icing on the cake.
