Description:
What is it that makes a man fall in love with a woman at first sight? Appearance? Aura? Wealth? NO, when campus prince and gaming expert, student Xiao Nai first saw Bei Wei Wei, what made him fall in love was not her extraordinary beauty; but her slim and slender fingers that were flying across the keyboard and her calm and composed manner!!! Embarrassing, no?
At the same time, gaming expert Bei Wei Wei was on the computer methodically commanding a guild war, and won a perfect and glorious victory despite being at a disadvantage; completely unaware of the fact that cupid is nearby.
Soon after basketball player; swimmer; all-around excellent student; and game company president, Xiao Nai, uses tactics both on- and offline to capture this beauty's heart. Therefore this romance slowly bloomed.

I don't read many modern Chinese novels, but I do like this one. Although it looks like it might be all about video games, it's not. The plot takes place both in the game and outside in their real life. The plot is pretty fresh compared to other XianXia/ Wuxia novels I've read since it's not about revenge or getting more powerful; in fact, it's just as entertaining.
The main couple is likable. The MC is smart, kind, and beautiful. The Male Lead is quite an enigma and a handsome one at that, too. Together, they make one power couple, and they wholly trust each other.
There is a pretty popular Chinese drama and movie adaption of this book. I definitely recommend watching them both, but especially the drama. Why?
Because of Yang Yang, the male lead actor, of course! Just look at him in these drama posters! (In case you're interested, I put one of the drama trailers is in the media)

The drama in itself was good, too, but hey, who wouldn't go watch it just for some eye candy? (That's what I did, at first. I saw a gif of the handsome actor as Xiao Nai—the Male lead of this book—and wanted to watch whatever drama he was in just so I could stare at his handsome face. But the drama plot is what ended up keeping me hooked from beginning till end or else I would have dropped it a few episodes in, eye candy or not.)
I think many of you will like this one. So if you already haven't, go and try it. I'm sure that 90% of you and more will like it (cough or at least the drama)
