Edited by Divetus

Jing Huan found that sure enough, people cant stay in their comfort zones all the time.

After being forced into defeat in two matches, his heart ached as he looked at the points he had lost.

It wasnt because of Qiufeng; rather, it was because a combination of two sealers really did prove to be more difficult to fight with than one support and one DPS. They couldnt keep up with the damage rate in the first place. Although Jing Huan was fully equipped, his summoning beasts rank wasnt high. The Nine-Tailed Foxs grade wasnt up to par and would get killed in two swings by their opponents.

After Regardless of Lovesickness and Chunxiao sent them out of the PK arena, Qiufeng wanted to comfort his teammate but then his friend notifications lit up.

[Friend] Chunxiao: Did you two team up tonight to just give away points? Philanthropist?

[Friend] Qiufeng: Why didnt you go easy on me!

[Friend] Chunxiao: My wife is rus.h.i.+ng to get up to 4000 points. Why are you with Xiao Tianjing again?

[Friend] Qiufeng: My teammate isnt here tonight

ah

. I originally didnt want to fight, but suddenly, I discovered that Yearning For wasnt online, so I called her up. [evil chuckle]

[Friend] Chunxiao: I suggest you dissolve the team on the spot. With Yearning For, shes always gaining points, but with you, shes actually losing points. The more matches you two play, the better shell find Yearning For.

Qiufeng angrily smiled, sending out a disdainful emoticon.

Jing Huan spoke into the microphone for a long time, then remembered that he hadnt pressed the key to speak, so Qiufeng couldnt hear him.

He didnt use YY very often and wasnt used to the programs default push-to-talk setting. He slowly pressed F2. Qiufeng, maybe you should find another teammate?

Qiufeng responded, No

ah

, the first two were because I misfired. In the next few, Ill definitely take you to the top.

No, said Jing Huan. Its because Im too noob, and your score is so high. Its not worthwhile to team up with me.

After the promotion of the multiplayer team compet.i.tion, a new rule for the arena was added recently: high rank players teaming up with low rank players to play in the arena would obtain 20% fewer points when winning and lose 20% more points when losing.

No, I just want to team up with you. Qiufeng paused a bit. And werent you with Yearning For this entire time? Hes the one with the highest rank in the entire server.

Jing Huans movements slowed.

It really was like that.

However, because they had lost very few matches, he had never thought about this point, and Yearning For had never mentioned it to him.

Get ready

ba

. Worried about her leaving, Qiufeng started to urge her.

Oh alright

ba

.

Entering the match pairing interface, Qiufeng coughed. By the way, Xiao Jing, the All the Lovers in the World event is happening soon. Do you want to do it with me? Ill carry you.

Jing Huan repeated blankly, All the Lovers in the World event?

Qiufeng suddenly remembered that Xiao Tianjing was new to NCH, but her technique always gave him the wrong impression of being a veteran player. Its NCHs year-end event, similar to the Valentines Day and

Qixi Festival

events. However, the All the Lovers event is specifically for increasing intimacy scores. If you complete all 100 levels, you can even get a brocade bag apparel that will expire in a year. When you hang it on your outfit, it looks very nice.

When Qiufeng mentioned it, Jing Huan then recalled what it was.

This event was actually very popular with players especially female players.

Who didnt want to have a high intimacy score with their partner?

In the game, the higher the intimacy score between a husband and wife, the stronger the exclusive skills of a husband and wife. Although, no matter how strong the skills were, they couldnt be better than a sects exclusive skills. However, in showing off a couples love, they were first-cla.s.s.

But there was also an obvious drawback.

The quests are time consuming and have little experience value. G.o.d Xiang probably wont do them

ba

? Qiufeng chuckled and said, If I remember correctly, hes never done it these last few years.

Jing Huan also felt that Yearning For wouldnt do it.

After all, he himself had never done it before either. Probably, the only person who would look forward to this event was sadly Lu Wenhao.

Just as he refused Qiufengs invitation, his cellphone in front of him suddenly rang.

It was the group chat Long Road Ahead had pulled together before, and now there were already five people in it.

Little Road Little Road Certainly Wouldnt Get Lost: @Xiao Jing

ya

, Xiao Jingjing, I love you so much! Come out quickly and Gege will give you a kiss!!

Chichi: ?

Xiao Jing

ya

: ??? Gege is still in the group, dont try anything with me!

Xiao Jing

ya

: [Go Away, Quickly Leave, Do You Still have Face.JPG]

Little Road Little Road Certainly Wouldnt Get Lost: I saw your contribution to the team, and Ill always remember you.

Little Road Little Road Certainly Wouldnt Get Lost: Xiao Jing, dont fight with Xiangxiang in the arena anymore, just go with Qiufeng! Throw away all his points into a pit for me!! With you there, hell never surpa.s.s me during his entire life!!

k2026;

f.u.c.k.

Jing Huan felt humiliated.

Once, he had also been a powerful figure in his old server who could call down the winds and the rains. At that time, there had been more than 100 people in his guild. For those who saw him, who didnt greet him as Ge?

Now, hes become a

burden

.

A king-sized burden, even.

Its all because of Yearning For!!

If it werent for him, how could he have fallen to this state!

Xiao Jing

ya

: You just want to deceive me, so that Gege can help you climb ranks. ?

Xiao Jing

ya

: [sharing song Im Not Fooled By You]

After sharing the song to the group and seeing that Yearning For never popped up, Jing Huan opened a private chat window and habitually sent out a few expressions.

Xiao Jing

ya

: Want to provoke Gege [draw a circle]

After sending that sentence, he skillfully picked out a few cute emoticons and sent them all over at once.

Xiang: En.

Jing Huan paused when trying to lock the screen.

Replying so fast?

Xiao Jing

ya

: 0.0 Gege! I thought you werent here

ne

.

Both of Xiang Huaizhis long legs were casually hanging off the armrest of the sofa, and he was leaning his head against his hand. His eyes were deep and fathomless, his thoughts completely unknown.

If you thought he wasnt there, then why send him messages.

Xiang: Just finished dinner.

Xiao Jing

ya

: Ive eaten too

la

. Im playing in the arena right now. ~()/~

Xiang: I know.

Xiao Jing

ya

: Huh? How did you know??

Xiang:

Xiang: Just looked in the guild group chat.

Xiao Jing, heal up my summoning beast a bit, The voice of his teammate came out from his earphones. What are you doing ne? Why arent you moving?

Jing Huan looked up and found that they had cut into a battle. He reflexively locked his cellphone. Ah, coming.

Xiang Huaizhi held his cellphone, quietly waiting for a few minutes.

That person fell silent. Usually he replied in seconds, but this time, they didnt even send an emoticon.

Baba Xiang came over holding a newspaper and sat at Xiang Huaizhis side on the sofa. Why the long face? Was dinner not delicious?

After he said that, Baba Xiang lowered his voice. Your mom only has two hobbies now: cooking and playing mahjong. No matter how bad it might taste, you have to bear it. Dont let her see through you.

Xiang Huaizhi lowered his eyes and set his cellphone to the side. Thats not it.

At this time, Mama Xiangs voice came from the mahjong room. Husband!

Baba Xiang immediately stood up and ran to the door of mahjong room. Whats the matter?

Go to the snack street and buy us some chicken feet.

Baba Xiang frowned. Ill call over some delivery.

Mama Xiang retorted, That shop doesnt do delivery.

Baba Xiang looked very reluctant, but he had just nodded when he heard a sentence from behind him.

Ill go. Xiang Huaizhi stood up and picked up his coat on the sofa.

He hesitated for a moment, but ultimately took his cellphone with him and put it in his pocket. How many do you want?

After Xiang Huaizhi left, Mama Xiang looked at her husband and asked, You were nagging him again?

After all, she had brought him up from childhood. She could see at a glance that her son wasnt in a good mood.

I didnt actually say anything, Baba Xiang replied.

*

Xiang Huaizhi carried two bags of chicken feet as he walked down the road.

The cellphone in his pocket had been vibrating the whole way, but he had walked straight ahead with no intentions of looking at it.

Pa.s.sing by the supermarket, he thought about it and decided to go in and buy some bread for breakfast tomorrow.

While checking out, the girl in front of him was on the phone. They werent standing that close, but Xiang Huaizhi could still hear her call.

Hmph, he has sent me another 20+ messages and made several phone calls.

Im definitely not acknowledging him.

Who told him to get so close to other girls

ah

! We clearly agreed that he would only play the game with me, and then he turned around to take other support girls around to get points! No way, this time, I must make him dangle there to make him realize his own mistake!

Xiang Huaizhi:

Just outside of the supermarket, Xiang Huaizhi took out his cellphone and began to read the messages he had just received.

Seems to be similar, but hes different from that girl just now, to some extent.

Xiao Jing

ya

: I just got sent into a fight. [kitty rolling around]

Xiao Jing

ya

: Wuwuwu, Gege, I lost a lot of points tonight

Xiao Jing

ya

: Im the most pitiful person in the world now.

Xiao Jing

ya

: Cant win the fight, and Gege has also disappeared. TT

Xiao Jing

ya

: [screenshot]

In the screenshot, the little fox fairy was doing a crying character action.

The scene behind the little fox fairy was a wild map. Xiang Huaizhi frowned and looked up to check the time. It was just past 8:30, the arena wasnt over yet.

Jing Huan sat in front of the computer, propping his chin with his hands and hanging his head, boredly looking through different video selections.

A WeChat prompt popped up at the top of the screen and he immediately stopped browsing through videos and clicked it open.

Xiang: Werent you fighting in the arena?

Xiao Jing

ya

: Qiufengs teammate just came online, and I found an excuse to leave

la

.

Xiao Jing

ya

: The points are all the efforts of Gege bitterly laboring away while taking me with him, Im not willing to just lose all of them. QAQ

He made it sound nice, as though the person who had just lost all the points in the arena wasnt him.

Xiang: How many points do you have now?

Xiao Jing

ya

: 2422

Xiang: So you lost sixty.

Not mentioning it was okay, but as soon as he said that, Jing Huans heart ached.

Xiao Jing

ya

: Wuwuwuwuwuwu~~(>_

After crying, Jing Huan thought something was wrong again.

Xiao Jing

ya

: Huh? Gege, how do you know how many points I had before?

Xiao Jing

ya

: Gege, you were investigating my points!!!

He hadnt actually done any detective work. If anyone wanted to know his points, you only needed to enter his ID at an NPC to check.

Xiang Huaizhis pace slowed down a bit, and it took him a long time to type.

Xiang: I wanted to see how far away you were from 3000 points.

Xiang: But now, it seems that you dont particularly want the reward at 3000 points.

Xiao Jing

ya

: Ah??

Xiang: Otherwise, why go give away points with Qiufeng.

Xiao Jing

ya

: Hes the one who invited me.

Xiang: As long as he invites you, you go?

Jing Huan was stunned.

He blinked, first slowly typing out the word I, then suddenly stopped. He quickly scrolled up and down the screen, looking back and forth at their conversation several times.

Was he delusional?

Why did he feel like something was weird?

Hadnt Long Road Ahead also lost a lot of points before? He hadnt seen Yearning For say anything about it

ah

.

An awkward and outrageous idea came to him abruptly. Jing Huan felt it was impossible, but he couldnt help but flirt with Yearning For.

Xiao Jing

ya

: Gege.

Xiang:?

Xiao Jing

ya

: Are you actually jealous? >0<

Sure enough, just after the message was sent out, the top of the chat box immediately changed to "Typing"

Jing Huan could imagine the urgent and full of denial appearance of the person across the screen and found it a little funny.

He stared at the screen to see what Yearning For would say.

A minute went by.

"Typing"

Five minutes went by.

"Typing.."

Ten minutes went by.

"Typing"

Jing Huan: ""

f.u.c.k?

No way

ba

, Da Ge?

I just wanted to tease you, but youre not about to write an 800 word composition to scold me for being amorous

ba

???

12 minutes later, Jing Huan bit his lower lip and decided to break the deadlock.

He turned on the keyboard, typing slowly.

Gege, I was just saying that

Buzz.

Xiang: No.

Xiang: Just, if you team up with other people to fight in the arena again in the future, dont try to team up with me anymore. Im not in the habit of wiping other peoples a.s.ses.

Juurensha

: Ohhhhhhh XHZ, youre super jealous.

Divi

: This is such jealous, childish behaviour XHZ!!! If I was Huanhuan, Id just be like fine, I wont team up with you then. See how XHZ feels then when his wish came true. >:(
