She suddenly leaned in and asked me, "What memes do you usually play with?"

I felt a chill on my back and stammered: "It's that one that's been quite popular recently."
The girl's eyes lit up: "Is it the base chain? A ping that increases tenfold in a day, using the x402 protocol for new listings is so cool!"
I said weakly, "It's not..."
That must be the BSC chain, the giggle charity meme has gone live on the spot today, CZ really knows how to control the hype.
"Not really..."
"Sol chain? What's there to be embarrassed about? The Solana Chinese meme is quite fun too," she tilted her head and smiled lightly.

"I don't play SOL..." I swallowed hard, my voice sounding like a bullet stuck in its casing. The girl fell silent for two seconds, then suddenly widened her eyes: "You can't be... still playing Tron, right?"
Her concerned gaze was like a searchlight shining on my face, causing me to tremble all over and my eardrums to buzz.
I gripped my thigh tightly and squeezed out a trembling sound like a mosquito from between my teeth: "It's... it's not!"
The air suddenly became quiet.
The girl's smile froze, and her voice suddenly turned cold: "So which one are you actually playing?"
"What else could a meme about fire be?" Her words pierced my heart like an ice pick. My knees buckled, and I fell to the ground, tears hitting the tiles: "I... I play xlayer..."
The entire corridor fell silent in an instant, with only the sound of my sniffles echoing.
The people around cast sympathetic glances. I tightly covered my face, hot shame seeping through my fingers. The girl grabbed her coat and turned to leave.
I cried out, grabbing the corner of her clothes: "Please don't go! Our xlayer..... is really fun!" The crowd erupted in laughter.

I held on tighter, "No laughing, so what if the boss wrote a little essay fud? So what if the leading xdog can't be built? So what if we keep shouting that $XX life will go to zero if it doesn't reach 1m... it's not like we can't play! Besides, our xlayer is about to upgrade, with stronger performance and scalability, in the future... things are definitely going to get better...!!"

(At this moment, distant footsteps of the security guard are heard along with a sigh: ... playing xlayer again)
