Chapter 66 - Dont really want to pursue them anymore.

Edited by Divetus

Jing Huan glanced at the system announcement. He had lost a few dozen of gold and more than 30 million experience points due to his death.

Money was a small matter, but experience points made him a bit distressed. More than 30 million experience points, hed have to grind for a week before he could earn it all back.

How much did you lose? Xiang Huaizhi asked.

Didnt lose much money, just 80 gold. Jing Huan said listlessly. Lost more than 30 million experience points though.

[Yearning For gave you 100 gold.]

Jing Huan was stunned and immediately threw the money back. What are you doing?

Xiang Huaizhi threw the money to him again, and this time it had turned into 300 gold. Its because I disconnected, or else we wouldnt have lost just now.

For a moment, Jing Huan felt a bit guilty.

If it wasnt for him, Lu Wenhao wouldnt have chased after and fought Yearning For.

He quickly waved away this pa.s.sing thought. Jing Huan thought about it and kept 80 gold for himself, tossing the rest back. I dont want the extra, Gege.

Xiang Huaizhi didnt pursue the point. Ill take you to grind back those experience points later.

Jing Huan was silent for a long time before he said, Okay.

After fighting for three days in a row, the battle between Idle Pavillion and Promise still showed no signs of quieting down. The Silk Road was still very lively, and the a.s.sa.s.sins from both guilds were also lurking and waiting in each wild map.

However, the battle situation wasnt as exaggerated as the first day. After all, everyone had things to do in real life and couldnt be online 24 hours a day.

For this reason, Chunxiao specifically collated the usual online times of the entire guild and arranged different teams according to the times.

Jing Huan and them were in charge of 7:00 pm to 10:00 pm.

As soon as cla.s.s was over, Jing Huan was hooked by Lu Wenhao across the neck and pulled into his arms in a headlock position.

Huanhuan, youre a bit heartless. You cant just forget about your bros now that you have a girlfriend! He scolded, How many days has it been since youve come out with us?

When have I come out with you guys? Jing Huan said that but didnt break away from his hold. And Ive said it before, I dont have a girlfriend.

Gao Zixiang put his hands in his pockets. Then, what are you hurrying back after cla.s.s to do every day?

Hurrying back to kill your fellow guild members

ah

.

Hurrying back to watch the LoL games. S9 has started, dont you know? Jing Huan felt like his throat was itchy, coughed, and asked lazily, Didnt you guys have that server integration? Why are you so idle every day?

Our guild arranged a duty roster, we have the s.h.i.+ft at noon. Speaking of this, Lu Wenhao smirked. I heard that, in order to avoid us, Yearning For arranged to go during the evening. I was thinking about letting our guild leader change it around for us.

Not mentioning it was okay, but as soon as he heard that, Jing Huan began to again mourn his lost 30 million experience points.

There are so many people in your guild, and you think you can change your s.h.i.+ft by just asking? Dont mess around. Jing Huan pat his hand. Let go, I want to go back.

Lu Wenhao didnt move. Come on

ah

Jing Huan.

Hearing someone call him, Jing Huan struggled to turn around. Seeing Xiang Huaizhi standing behind him, he smiled. Ge?

Xiang Huaizhi frowned and stared at their position. After a while, he asked, What are you guys doing?

Lu Wenhao greeted him cheerfully, h.e.l.lo Senior.

Xiang Huaizhi didnt look at him and just let out a cold, En.

Nothing, we just got out of cla.s.s. Jing Huan patted Lu Wenhaos fat hand again, this time using some strength. You d.a.m.n it.. Hurry up and let go.

Lu Wenhao released him and pretended to be hurt. Youve changed. You used to even let me casually embrace you.

Jing Huan laughed and cursed at him. Scram. When have I ever let you embrace me? You two hurry up and leave ba. Any later and the cafeteria wont have any free seats.

Jing Huan. Xiang Huaizhi called out to him again.

En?

Xiang Huaizhi wanted to invite him to eat together, but then he remembered that they still had to go on duty in the Silk Road soon. His words in his mouth turned into, Head back together?

The two boys walked towards the back gate side by side. Lu Wenhao rubbed his stomach. Xianger, lets go too. Any later and we really wont be able to eat What are you looking at?

Looking at their shadows, Gao Zixiang frowned. Nothing, its just a little strange.

Lu Wenhao was at a loss. Whats strange?

Senior Xiang seemed to be quite cold towards us?

Lu Wenhao smiled. Isnt he notoriously cold-blooded?

But hes very good to Huanhuan.

Lu Wenhao choked. It seems that wayk2026; However, Huanhuan has always been very likable. Maybe Senior Xiang also likes him and therefore is good to him bei.

Gao Zixiang looked back with complicated eyes.

Originally, he didnt think there was anything going on. But now, once Lu Wenhao said that, his imagination had been broadened.

Why are you look at me like that? Lu Wenhao asked, confused. Are we still eating?

Gao Zixiang gave up communicating with him. Eat, eat until you die, lets go.

When Jing Huan went online, his teammates were already waiting.

[Team] Xiao Tianjing: Wuwuwu Im sorry, Im late. QAQ

Its okay, Xiangxiang also just came back. Lu Hang stretched out. Why arent you using the mic?

[Team] Xiao Tianjing: My throat doesnt feel too good today.

It may be that he had been pitching his voice and talking a lot these days, but there was something wrong with his throat. It was nothing serious, it was just that his throat was itchy, and he coughed occasionally.

He also wasnt turning on the mic because he was too lazy to act cute today. He was closed for business.

Xiang Huaizhi paused. Just now, he hadnt been able to hear any difference in Jing Huans voice compared to normal.

Have you taken any medicine? Xiang Huaizhi asked.

[Team] Xiao Tianjing: Nope Gege, I just have a little seasonal cold. Its nothing serious.

Then, you have to take care a bit. Its been very cold here recently, I usually have to wrap myself in blankets in the dorm. Lu Hang offhandedly asked, Where do you live

ah

Xiao Jingjing?

Jing Huan replied, I live

You have everything? Xiang Huaizhi cut him off without a trace and led them to the Silk Road. In a moment, pay attention to health levels, and dont think about saving potions. If youre lacking any potions, directly ask me for them.

Lu Hang never let go of any chance to take advantage of his relatives and friends. Do you have some extra recovery incense over there?

Xiang Huaizhi threw him five recovery incenses and finally succeeded in getting him to shut up.

Lu Wenhaos team being arranged by Patience to go at noon, was in fact, specifically a.s.signed by Patiences guild leader. He was afraid of Yearning For wanting revenge and specifically targeting Lu Wenhao to kill.

With no scruples now, Xiang Huaizhi killed whoever he

encountered

, ever victorious, and never returning to the rebirth point again. In just three days, there were ten extra G.o.d Xiangs Amazing Plays Compilation videos on the forum.

Its all just G.o.d Xiangs Amazing Plays, no G.o.d Lus Amazing Plays! Lu Hang said angrily. Why do none of these netizens recognize true beauty?

Love is For You to Eat sighed, How many more days do we still have to fight before its finished

ah

? I also want to do the All the Lovers event, its been out for two days already.

Lu Hang asked curiously, Who are you going to do it with?

With my own side account Love is For You to Eat said, I just want to do it to get that limited edition apparel.

To do the All the Lovers quests, you needed to go into wild maps to find the NPCs there. Now, all the wild maps had an endless number of a.s.sa.s.sins lurking there, and there was no way to happily go about completing the event.

Lu Hang pondered. I think it should be soon

ba

. Our guild already has a lot more guild funds than they have.

At 10:00 pm, the five of them got off their s.h.i.+ft on time and didnt stick around at all.

Today, they had cleared out seven teams. When their team returned to the main city, Jing Huan couldnt help jerking his neck around. None of his usual remedies seemed to be working, so he really seemed to have a cold. His whole body felt tired.

Xiang Huaizhi originally planned to take him to do dailies but then he saw the small fox fairy be the first one to leave the team.

[Friend] Yearning For: ?

[Friend] Xiao Tianjing: Whats the matter

la

, Gege.

[Friend] Yearning For: Doing dailies or not.

[Friend] Xiao Tianjing: Okay

ah

.

[Friend] Xiao Tianjing: But can you wait a bit? I want to go downstairs.

[Friend] Yearning For: Going to do what.

[Friend] Xiao Tianjing: Buy some medicine.

Xiang Huaizhis fingers stopped slightly, then he typed. Go then

ba

.

Chunxiao mentioned in the guild group chat, Lu Hang stood up and stretched out. That Promise over there seems to be on the verge of dying, and theyre trying to get other guilds to join them in going against us. Do you think there will be other guilds that cooperate with them?

After not getting an answer after nearly half a day, Lu Hang turned his head around. Xiangxiang?

Xiang Huaizhi replied in a perfunctory way. Dont know.

Lu Hang looked at the time, picked up his coat, and casually put it on. Its still early, Ill go play cards next door, dont lock the door.

After Lu Hang left, Xiang Huaizhi was the only one left in their dorm.

His back was completely straight. A few seconds later, he let go of his mouse and leaned back against the chair.

It was completely silent, and his thoughts were especially clear at the moment.

Their school was located on an incline, and there were only two pharmacies around, one at the front gate, and one at the back gate.

He wanted to go downstairs and see him.

Xiang Huaizhi wasnt surprised by this idea, but he just didnt know when he started having it.

His cellphone on the table vibrated slightly.

Xiao Jing

ya

: f.u.c.k, the pharmacy downstairs is closed Where exactly is the front gates pharmacy??

[Xiao Jing

ya

has withdrawn a message]

Xiang: ?

Xiao Jing

ya

: I sent the wrong emoticon Gege [cute]

Xiang Huaizhis eyes lowered, and he opened up the emoticons and scrolled through, but he couldnt find one the he wanted to reply with.

Finally, he put his cellphone directly into his pocket.

*

Jing Huan slowly exited the pharmacy with the medicine. The cold wind blew on his face, and he sneezed at once.

He rubbed his nose and looked up to see Xiang Huaizhi standing by the bus stop.

Xiang Huaizhi had both his hands in his pockets and was quietly looking at him. For a moment, Jing Huan even felt like he was waiting for him.

Ge, Jing Huan recovered and instinctively walked to Xiang Huaizhis side. Why are you here? Waiting for someone?

Xiang Huaizhi shook his head. Night jog.

.

It was so cold, and he was going out for a night jog?

As soon as winter came, all he wanted to do was set up camp under a quilt and never come out again.

No wonder youre so well built. Jing Huan said heartily. Then, Ill go back first, good luck.

Lets go together. Xiang Huaizhi followed him by his side, looking as he usually did. Im finished.

But

you

dont look like you just finished running

ah

.

Jing Huan was confused but didnt ask. Okay.

You have a cold? Xiang Huaizhi glanced at the bag from the pharmacy in his hands.

Jing Huan laughed and said, Yeah, was inadvertently careless.

It cooled down recently, be sure to keep warm.

Yes, you as well Ge.

While Jing Huan talked, he was looking around the entire time.

Xiang Huaizhi also noticed and asked him, What are you looking for?

No, Im checking if theres anyone taking pictures of us. Jing Huan looked away. Although he was ill, his tone was still energetic. If I catch him, I will beat him.

Xiang Huaizhi inclined his head, glancing down at him with lowered eyes.

From his perspective, he could see the back of Jing Huans neck. He wasnt even wearing a scarf, and his long white neck was completely exposed.

He thought of the scene where Jing Huan had been seized into someone elses arms and a small wrinkle appeared between his eyebrows.

Do you really mind?

Jing Huan was stunned when he heard those words. He turned around and asked, Hm?

The photos, Xiang Huaizhi asked, You really mind?

Its not that Jing Huan licked his lips. I just dont like being photographed very much. Its strange.

Xiang Huaizhi nodded, and he thought of something. Right, you and that person you like Hows it going?

Jing Huan was stunned, and it took him a long time to remember exactly what was going on.

With all the lies he had spilled out, all he could do was continue to spin it. Nothing really, still havent caught them.

To some extent, what he said was the truth.

Xiang Huaizhi asked again, Do you like that person very much?

Jing Huan turned around and stared at him for a while.

Xiang Huaizhi was a little fl.u.s.tered at being stared at, but his face remained very calm. Whats the matter?

Jing Huan laughed, his eyes curving into crescents. No, it just seems like youre really interested in the person I like.

Xiang Huaizhi said, Just thought of it and wanted to ask, if you dont want to talk about it, thats fine.

I like them

ah

. Jing Huan said casually, If I didnt like them, why would I pursue them.

There were few people in the street and the two boys walked side by side, talking about topics and looking like they were engaging in chitchat between friends.

Only Xiang Huaizhi himself knew that the person next to him was confessing to him.

A secret pleasure and indescribable melancholy rose up in his heart. He even wanted to come clean, saying that he was Yearning For, asking Jing Huan what he really liked about him and then asking him whether he was more moved by his game character or himself in reality.

However, Jing Huan breathed out a hot breath and complained, Recently, Ive gotten a little tired of pursuing them.

Xiang Huaizhi was startled and turned to look at him. En?

Its kind of annoying that, however I pursue them, I dont get any response. Jing Huan said, mixing in half the truth with a few lies. Dont really want to pursue them anymore.

Itd be more fun and cleaner to buy five accounts to kill him with.

Xiang Huaizhis heart sank, and even his footsteps grew a bit heavier, Youre giving up?

Jing Huan didnt answer the question. Ge, have you ever pursued anyone?

The boys eyes were especially bright in the dim environment. Xiang Huaizhi stared into his eyes for a bit before looking away. No.

Jing Huan nodded. He probably had been blown into confusion by the wind. How could a guy like Xiang Huaizhi pursue anyone.

Xiang Huaizhi pursed his lips and wanted to continue to question him when he found that they had just arrived at the back gate.

Ge, the house I rented is right here, so Ill head out first. Jing Huan waved at him. Good night.

When the boys back disappeared in the building, only then did Xiang Huaizhi come back to his senses.

In those short few minutes, his mind had just been playing the words dont really want to pursue them anymore in a loop.
