My anime girlfriend has come into my life

My Anime Girlfriend Came to My Side (Author: Jiebai)

【brief introduction】

While at Haidilao, I was instantly killed!

Encouraged by his fellow members, Li Chaoge went to Haidilao to celebrate his and Xier's birthdays.

He thought it would just be a socially awkward experience he would reminisce about when he was old, but who would have thought that after celebrating his birthday, Seele would actually appear in front of him.

Those silly group members weren't just playing around with their chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) or engaging in role-playing; they were genuinely silly characters. As Seele broke through the barrier, the other silly group members gradually entered the real world as well.

Lucia the Raven, born only for you; Hinterlea, the Platinum-ranked woman who doesn't want to go to work; Lilith, the girlfriend outside the shield; Aya, the Solomon Demon God, slays immortals.

One by one, girlfriends who should only exist in one's imagination arrived, and Li Chaoge was naturally overjoyed. But why is it that none of these people can cook?

(The games involved include Punishing: Gray Raven, Azur Lane, Fate/Grand Order, Honkai Impact 3rd, Genshin Impact, Girls' Frontline, and Arknights, among others. The author writes with love and may fall in love with a new waifu at any time.)

Chapter 1. Someone was caught at Haidilao and died on the spot.

October 18, Monday, Guangzhou, 5:00 p.m.

Li Chaoge walked out of the cake shop with a backpack on his back and a small cake in his hand. He took out his phone, which had been vibrating, from his pocket and looked at the 99+ red dots on his chat app, feeling a headache coming on.

In reality, he's just a shut-in who doesn't have many close friends and enjoys playing games. Those messages are obviously not from his girlfriend checking up on him.

After entering university, he was busy with his studies and part-time jobs, so he rarely went online to chat in groups. Even the mobile games he used to play would only be logged in once in a long while to see if new seasonal clothes or new waifus were released.

The reason so many messages have been tagging him today is simply because he said a couple of days ago that he would be livestreaming his birthday celebration today.

At this moment, the game group he created was still receiving messages non-stop.

Pu Lao didn't want to sleep on the street: "Where are people?! The sun is almost setting, it's almost evening! Are they still not up?! @ChaoGeGe"

World's No. 1 Idol Ai-chan: Boss, hurry up and start your live stream! Ai-chan has already notified more than a dozen groups. As soon as you start streaming, I'll have them all come and support you and Seele! @朝鸽鸽

Primate Killer: "Fou? Foufoufou!"

The best emergency food for travelers: "He must have run away, right? Look at his nickname."

The logistics officer, who had spent a fortune on in-game purchases, couldn't pay the soldiers: "Desertion in the face of battle?!"

Xiao Jiajia is also 36D today: "I can't possibly back out at the last minute! We already agreed on this!"

Bro, this won't work: "Let's ask @朝鸽鸽, maybe she went for a run."

Group administrator PRTS: "@All members, all personnel, prepare for battle."

.......

"What's the rush? I just finished class not long ago. I'll start a live stream for you guys when I get there."

Seeing the numerous group members frantically tagging him in the game group, Li Chaoge had no choice but to send messages to appease them while heading towards the hot pot restaurant he had booked.

In fact, since the group owner semi-retired from the game, this gaming group has been half-dead for a long time, with most of the 500 members being lurkers.

However, there are still many fellow fans who are addicted to the game occasionally chatting in the group, sharing with him which game's new events are better and more exciting, and occasionally cursing the game planners from the depths of hell.

Even though he rarely logs into the game anymore, it's still quite fun to watch these silly friends chatting in the group during his spare time. Once he gets attracted by a new event in a game, he'll indulge himself a little and go back to the game for a few days.

Today, October 18th, is his birthday, and also the birthday of one of his favorite characters in the mobile game Honkai Impact 3rd.

Li Chaoge, who had missed the anniversary call again due to part-time work a while ago, hesitated for a few days before deciding to go to Haidilao to celebrate his birthday with his two girlfriends.

He had seen many videos of birthday celebrations for Hatsune Miku and Luo Tianyi before, and he really liked the scenes of everyone laughing together for their hobby. He was quite envious at the time, but he didn't have many friends, so he could only look for places that could help celebrate birthdays.

Twenty minutes later, Li Chaoge walked into a large shopping mall and approached a hot pot restaurant. He nervously clenched his fists, took a deep breath, and then walked over.

"Welcome! How many of you are in your party?"

When the waiter at the door saw Li Chaoge walking over, he immediately greeted her with a smile.

“…Three, three!” A little nervous, Li Chaoge suddenly pulled a cushion from her backpack, pointed to the two pictures on it, and said, “Me, and the two of them!”

The front of the pillow features a cute girl with short, bluish-black hair and a white outfit, who looks sweet and gentle. The back of the pillow features another cute girl with the same face, but her outfit and hair color are different. The black and red style and the fierce eyes make her look like a completely different person from the girl in the white outfit.

"Uh, oh! Okay! You're Mr. Li, right? You made an appointment to celebrate the birthdays of your two girlfriends."

The waiter stared at the cushion for a moment, then gave a polite smile and reached out to help Li Chaoge take the cake from her hand.

Actually, this kind of thing is quite common for their store, because they celebrate customers' birthdays for free, so some customers come alone and ask them to help celebrate their birthdays.

They've seen plenty of these kinds of birthday celebrations for second characters, though most of them take place in other stores. But for their atmosphere team, it doesn't matter whose birthday it is.

"Um......"

Although the waiter remained outwardly calm, Li Chaoge sensed that the waiter was muttering something under his breath. However, he had anticipated this situation, so he simply nodded, his face flushed, and went inside with the waiter.

After bringing Li Chaoge to the store and sitting her down, the waiter quickly explained Li Chaoge's situation to the other waiters, and then took the cake to prepare it.

Although it was Li Chaoge's first time here, he had researched the detailed procedures online for a long time, so there were no surprises. He simply took out his phone, turned on the live stream, and placed it on the opposite side of the table, pointing it in this direction.

The group members who had been waiting in the live stream for a long time immediately started sending messages.

"Fufufu!"

"Wow! The boss thinks the same way I do, he's still very handsome!"

"Isn't the group owner afraid of getting into trouble? I remember the group owner was quite shy; he wouldn't even let me be his sugar daddy."

"You call yourself shy if you don't have a sugar daddy/sugar baby? Do you have some kind of misunderstanding about the word 'shy'?!"

Li Chaoge couldn't help but smile as he watched the chattering group members making noise in the live chat. These silly group members were truly his source of joy.

Many people are under a lot of social pressure these days, but they don't have anyone suitable to confide in in real life. They can vent their frustrations by complaining to strangers online. Since they don't know anyone, they don't have to worry about their bosses hearing their complaints.

"Hello, may I light the candles now?"

After a while, the waiter, who had prepared the cake, opened it, set out the candles, and brought it over with a smile, asking Li Chaoge and the Bai Xier pillow next to him.

"Okay! Now we can light the candles!"

Li Chaoge was stunned for a moment, then nodded vigorously and quickly explained to the many group members who were still teasing him, "Thank you all for your support. I won't say anything more. If you have anything to say, we can talk in the group."

The main event today was still celebrating Seele's birthday. Actually, if it weren't for celebrating Seele's birthday, he wouldn't have gone to all this trouble; he would have just eaten something nice and that would have been it.

A person's youth is wasted if they don't have a bit of a youthful naiveté. If he doesn't take advantage of this momentum to do something unforgettable, he doesn't know if he'll still have the courage to do it when he gets older.

"Happy birthday! May your special day be filled with a radiant smile..."

The atmosphere team was ready, the candles were lit, and as the birthday song played, the team members immediately started singing while holding up colorful signs.

Li Chaoge also sang along softly to the birthday song, but because he wasn't thick-skinned enough, his voice wasn't loud, and he could only clap his hands to cover up his embarrassment.

It wouldn't be good not to smile at this moment, but he wasn't a person who liked to smile, so he could only try to keep his expression calm.

Happy birthday, my dearest! Wishing you happiness forever, happiness forever...

Halfway through the song, Li Chaoge flipped the pillow over and replaced the white hope with the black hope that had been hidden on the back.

He has two girls he likes: White Seele is the normal personality, and Black Seele can be seen as the dominant side of White Seele. They are both his second girlfriends, and he can't favor one over the other.

Although if someone were truly criticizing hope, they would probably find this kind of shameful behavior particularly distasteful.

At that moment, a bright gift barrage appeared on the live stream screen of the phone opposite him, featuring a futuristic city gift effect with a strong sci-fi feel.

[The City of 1 Turbocharged Duck Ghost Fire Girls]

"Hmm? City? Thanks for the food, Duck Duck, but don't waste your money. I'm just doing a quick live stream to celebrate my and Seele's birthdays."

Li Chaoge, who was clapping his hands, was taken aback when he saw the prompt on the screen. This seemed to be a rather expensive gift.

Because he rarely participates in this live stream, and this live stream room was only verified a long time ago on a whim, he doesn't really know the prices of the gifts in this city. However, it seems that it's not the last option listed, so it should be a mid-range gift.

Li Chaoge didn't recommend spending money on gifts. After all, this little station had changed its nature after expanding its circle, and he didn't want his uncle to make money off him. If the Ghostfire Girl really wanted to spend money, she might as well just transfer money to him to support him.

[The City of 99 Turbocharged Duck Ghost Fire Girls]

[The City of 100 Turbocharged Duck Ghost Fire Girls]

As if to antagonize him, gifts appeared again as soon as he finished speaking, followed by a large group of people giving him gifts.

[The Emperor and His Wallet Feed 100 Cities]

[Mingmiao is giving away freebies to 100 explorers today to help them embark on their journeys]

[The chief of Faos Academy fed 520 Guardian Wings with Iris.]

[Reject Online Scams ☆ Mei Lili sends 1000 confetti!]

The special effects of the gifts one after another left Li Chaoge, who was thinking that these guys were wasting money, dumbfounded. Even if each gift was only worth one yuan, it would still amount to several thousand yuan, not to mention that the gifts were worth far more than that.

He originally wanted to commemorate his soon-to-be-gone teenage years and go crazy one last time, but he didn't expect so many people to give him tips.

Are all these people really that rich?!

He recognized the names of many of the viewers who were sending him gifts, but in his memory, these people seemed to have been lurking and silent for a long time. He didn't expect them to suddenly reappear now.

This left him with mixed feelings. He hadn't expected that so many people would still remember him after he had been semi-retired from the game for so long. It was all worth it for him to have led these guys in playing the game all this time.

"Thank you everyone for coming, thank you for your blessings."

Li Chaoge originally wanted to say that he and Seele would be happy, but after thinking about it, he realized that so many people were sending gifts not for Seele, and many people in the group didn't even play Honkai Impact 3rd; he had just brought everyone together.

Besides, the girl with the ghost fire is also a Seele fan, so he'd better not say anything to upset her.

"Happy birthday, my dearest! May you be happy forever, forever happy..."

After the atmosphere group finished singing and left, Li Chaoge apologized to his silly group members and turned off the live stream.

Singing a birthday song is one thing, but he shouldn't be livestreaming while he's eating.

He's not a professional streamer; he can't possibly balance eating and interacting with viewers in the chat. It would be so much better to just chat in the group chat. Now, because of the large number of gifts and donations, many random people have appeared, and he doesn't have the time or inclination to distinguish which chat logs are from random people and group members.

Moreover, he still had to talk to the guys in the group about the gifts. If he wasn't mistaken, the amount of money given this time seemed to be particularly large. He began to wonder if he was living in a dream, that so many people were giving him gifts.

"Today is your birthday..."

Suddenly, the birthday song started playing again from not far away. This hot pot restaurant is known for its service, and many people come here to celebrate their birthdays. It's common for many people to celebrate their birthdays at the same time.

Li Chaoge glanced over there, seeing a group of people celebrating together, then looked at his own quiet seat and continued to look at his phone while eating hot pot.

He was quite happy during the celebration, but now that it's over, he feels a bit lonely. Seele and the others are, after all, a bit silly. He can enjoy the beauty of their silliness, but getting too deeply involved and detached from reality is going too far and turning something beautiful into poison.

He'll be 22 after this birthday, legally eligible to marry. How can he continue indulging in his eccentricities? He needs to work harder, not just for himself, but for his sister and parents!

As Li Chaoge looked at the rapidly scrolling message history in the group chat, he sighed with a myriad of thoughts.

He's going to disappoint his silly group members again; he still has to obediently go back to being a corporate slave.

At that moment, a figure stopped beside him and stood right next to his table.

"Do you need any help?"

"Thank you, I can do it myself..."

Thinking it was a friendly waiter, Li Chaoge instinctively wanted to refuse, but when he looked up, he noticed that the figure was strikingly similar to the cushion next to him, and he couldn't help but blurt out:

"hope, Xi'er?!"

Chapter 2. Whether it's Black Seele or White Seele, she's still Seele.

"Um?!"

Li Chaoge thought he was hallucinating. He rubbed his eyes as he looked at the girl in front of him, who seemed to have broken through the wall and appeared in reality. He wondered if he was like the little match girl who saw his own fantasy in the candlelight.

Her black and blue bob haircut was adorned with a white bowler hat, and a pristine white fitted dress covered her fair and delicate skin. Her face was exquisitely beautiful without a single flaw, and her slender feet were shod in white high-heeled sandals.

Of all the online photos Li Chaoge had ever seen, this girl in front of him was undoubtedly the most authentic Seele. Even the most heavily edited photos by top-tier photo editors couldn't compare to this girl.

Her gentle yet timid, cautious expression is just like Seele from Honkai Impact 3rd, who has a kind heart.

To be very subjective, this is the real Seele; those flashy, tacky pink ones are just different clothes.

"Captain, Seele is here to see you..."

Seeing Li Chaoge staring blankly at her without saying a word, Xier took off her white top hat, crossed her arms over her chest, and looked at Li Chaoge nervously, her fair legs pressed tightly together under the hem of her snow-white skirt.

Having finally met the captain she had been longing for, Seele wanted to throw herself into his arms, but she was afraid that being too abrupt would annoy him.

To the current captain, they are all fake; he has never believed in their existence.
