Biography

Becoming the real person behind a public fantasy

Lin Hong's memories establish Gu Qingyan as a spirited, heroic student admired across the university for both beauty and combat talent. Du Ge initially treats that attachment as a convenient template rather than a relationship, using her identity to draw romantic attention around his Battle Network persona. The growing spectacle turns Gu into the subject of fan campaigns and betting pools she did not create, forcing her to confront a public story built around an unknown pilot. Du Ge later pursues her deliberately, and by the final confrontation she is among the women whose favorable impression makes looking at him emotionally disruptive. (Chapters 450–469, 506–507)

Keywords, skills, and cultivation

Gu is a top mech-department combat genius rather than an Alien Star warrior. Her strengths are piloting education, physical training, and composure within Bi Xing's military culture; no keyword or supernatural skill belongs to her. Du Ge's attraction effects can influence her emotions, but they do not erase her rational judgment or grant her new combat abilities. (Chapters 450–456, 506–507)

Relationships

• Du Ge: He borrows Gu's public image for his romantic campaign, then cultivates a genuine favorable impression that affects her during the final gathering. (Chapters 450–469, 506–507)
