Chapter 60 - My Gege is the best in the world!

Edited by Divetus

Jing Huan had already finished acting a long time ago, but the counselor wasn’t letting anyone go, he insisted that they go help out backstage.

After helping to move the props, Jing Huan sat by the window and let out a breath. He reached out and pulled at his tie, undid the first two buttons of his shirt, and finally felt cooler.

Lu Wenhao came in with a table. “Finally, the damn moving is done… Who are you trying to seduce, sitting there?”

Jing Huan felt like he was dying of heat, and he wasn’t in a good mood. “Seducing your ancestors.”

Lu Wenhao laughed a bit and simply moved the stool to his side and sat down. “I suspect that the counselor has grabbed all of us to be his slaves, he even wants us to move the musical instruments, it’s really not humane.”

Jing Huan nodded with a deep feeling. “He’s going to make us spend all night in this pit. Where’s Xiang’er?”

“Girlfriend check-in time.” Lu Wenhao stretched out his arms. “Everyone has left, let’s also leave quickly ba. Otherwise we’re going to get caught and be forced to clean the entire auditorium… Let’s go and get some barbecue before heading back.”

Jing Huan was about to agree, but then suddenly thought of something. He took out his cellphone and said, “Wait a minute.”

“What for?”

“My Ge is here too,” said Jing Huan. “I’ll ask him if he wants to have barbecue.”

“Your Ge…” Lu Wenhao paused. “Xiang Huaizhi ah? No way, you’re really that familiar with him?”

You’re even calling him out for an evening snack?

“You’ve asked this same question twice,” Jing Huan didn’t even raise his head. “Anyway, he was in the auditorium, and it’s not like I’m asking you to treat him.”

“Am I someone who cares about money?” Lu Wenhao said, “But I thought you two would keep a distance.”

Jing Huan looked at him inexplicably. “Why would we keep a distance?”

“Isn’t there a story spreading about you two on BBS?…”

Jing Huan casually said, “That? It’s not like it’s true. Let them say whatever they want ba, it’s not like I can go through the screen and beat them.”

If he actually had that ability, Yearning For would have already died 8000 times.

Lu Wenhao replied, “Then, what if one day, BBS uploads something about me and you…”

“Scram.” Jing Huan interrupted him without raising his head.

Lu Wenhao: “…”

Xiang Huaizhi only replied after a long period of time. He said he needed to send his Meimei back, so he wouldn’t go.

The three of them went to the barbecue place near the school, and Lu Wenhao reached out and ordered dozens of kebabs.

Jing Huan was gnawing at chicken wings with his two long legs kicked up. Gao Zixiang took a look at him with his chin propped on his hand and said very seriously, “Huanhuan, just drop out and go debut as an idol. Hao’er and I will definitely be your number one fans.”

Jing Huan was savoring the delicious food at the tip of his tongue and had no time to pay attention to him.

Lu Wenhao nodded repeatedly. “Yes, I’ll sell all my game accounts to help support your idol career, but how can you debut?”

Gao Zixiang said, “Take part in a competition. There are so many 101 classes and trainee classes, right.”

“Holy shit, you’re so smart. Then, tomorrow I’ll go check how to register… Huanhuan what are you doing!” Lu Wenhao was halfway through speaking when he hurriedly reached out to protect the food on his plate.

Jing Huan took a bite of the beef kebab he had grabbed. “Seeing how much bullshit you just spouted, I thought you were probably already full.”

Gao Zixiang smiled and took a sip of alcohol. “Oh right, someone in the guild group chat just said that our server is going to be integrated.”

The two people by his side paused, unable to react for a minute.

“What integration?” asked Lu Wenhao.

“Two servers,” Gao Zixiang clinked his glass with him. “Merging into one.”

“Holy shit?” Lu Wenhao was stunned. “What, why? Isn’t our server very popular?”

Gao Zixiang said, “That’s what you think. All the other servers’ status bars have been super popular, but ours hasn’t been all that popular in awhile ba? These days, everyone has kind of gotten tired of playing games. NCH’s traffic has actually been declining. I heard that their officials have been studying the new information they’ve gathered.”

This was also the first time Jing Huan had heard news of the server integration.

Lu Wenhao’s eyes widened, and he asked, “NCH has done this kind of thing before?”

“No, so our server is the first one and will count as a guinea pig.” Gao Zixiang said, “I think the news is true, but I don’t know which server we’re going to integrate with.”

“Server integration…” Lu Wenhao thought for a moment and suddenly said excitedly,, “Wait a minute, if we’re in the same server, don’t we all need to re-plot the territory? Wage war to figure out the regions ba? The guild rankings will be contested ba? And the big ranking lists… ”

The more he said, the more excited he grew. ”Then, won’t it be really lively?”

The two chatted happily nearby. After hearing a few words, Jing Huan bowed his head and concentrated on eating his night snack.

Server integrations were a common practice in other games. The servers were opened one by one, people in the old servers would always eventually leave, and new players chose the new servers first, so ghost servers would appear sooner or later.

NCH had been operating for ten years before having to integrate any servers; it already counted as very awesome.

After finishing the midnight snack, Jing Huan went home and took a bath before slowly opening the game.

[Friend] Yearning For: So late?

[Friend] Xiao Tianjing: Good evening, Gege. I just went out to have dessert with my sisters ^0^

[Friend] Yearning For: En, how was the performance?

[Friend] Xiao Tianjing: Gorgeous. [shy]

[Friend] Yearning For: …..

[Friend] Xiao Tianjing: It’s too bad Gege couldn’t see it. QAQ

[Friend] Yearning For: Can imagine it.

[Friend] Xiao Tianjing: En??

[Friend] Yearning For: Where are you? Taking you to do dailies.

After entering the team, Jing Huan drank some hot milk to dilute the taste of barbecue in his mouth.

As soon as he was about to speak, he noticed some movement at the bottom of the screen.

[Megaphone] Ji Xiaonian: Seen through it, love is just like this.

[Megaphone] Ji Xiaonian: Just count it as me loving the wrong person.

[Megaphone] Ji Xiaonian: If I had known how this would end, I would rather have never met you.

?

What are these sisters talking about?

Jing Huan licked the milk on his lips and looked at the world channel blankly.

[World] Is Gege Big: What’s this mess?

[World] Peachy Young Beauty: …. [sweatdrop]

[World] Frost: Blindly guessing, divorce!

[World] Peachy Fate: It’s here! My most looked forward to divorce tell-all link!

[Megaphone] Ji Xiaonian: I thought you would give me the tenderness of the whole world, but I didn’t think you would even lack the courage to save me from the wicked.

Jing Huan was planning to happily eat melons when he saw this last sentence.

His expression was complicated. “Gege, look at Ji Xiaonian’s megaphone. The last sentence… doesn’t it seem to be talking about us?”

Xiang Huaizhi glanced at it and comforted him. “No.”

[Megaphone] Ji Xiaonian: It’s just a rich ranking list… Are money and face that important to you?

The two villains in the team fell into silence.

Ji Xiaonian was still posting up megaphones, hoping to tell the whole world all her feelings.

There were people like this in every server, and it wasn’t the first time Jing Huan had seen this. Apart from being a little depressed at being mentioned, he was still very happy reading them.

“What are you doing?” Xiang Huaizhi suddenly turned on his mic. “Why aren’t you talking?”

“I’m reading the megaphones, Gege.”

Xiang Huaizhi wasn’t particularly fond of reading these, but megaphones couldn’t be blocked, so he still saw a few words.

[Megaphone] Ji Xiaonian: Love on the Internet is too fake. I hope my fellow sisters can polish their eyes and don’t casually feel moved. You have to know, the person you like isn’t necessarily like the image you have of them in your heart.

Xiang Huaizhi frowned gently and then asked, “En, what impressions did you have after reading it?”

“…”

I’m just reading a megaphone.

We have to talk about impressions of it?!

“My impression is,” Jing Huan said seriously, “no other man in this world is as good as Gege!”

Xiang Huaizhi paused in his action of drinking water. No matter how many times he had heard stuff like this, he still couldn’t get used to it.

“Really.”

“Yes!” Jing Huan said firmly. “My Gege is the best in the world!”

Xiang Huaizhi was silent for awhile before feeling relieved.

That’s also the case.

Actually, being able to get used to this would be strange.

After the news of the NCH server integration came out, the players made a scene on the forums for several days. Most of the players were against the server integration.

After all, integrating the servers not only meant that all the ranking lists would be merged, but also the prices in the server will be disrupted.

Jing Huan had been listening to Lu Wenhao for a week.

Lu Wenhao asked, “Which unlucky server do you think will merge with us?”

Gao Zixiang put his hand on his chin. “How can I know? Did only our server get this news? Nothing from the other servers?”

“There really hasn’t been. I actually took a special look that day. Our server has the lowest traffic volume in the whole game. Fuck… it wasn’t usually noticable.”

Jing Huan wasn’t interested in participating in this topic. He was holding his cellphone and chatting with Yearning For.

Xiao Jing ya: Gege, I heard that NCH is going to do a server integration.

Xiang: Would happen sooner or later.

Xiao Jing ya: Hehe. I still have 20 minutes before class lets out. When will Gege go back to the dorms, I want to do dailies together with Gege ヾ(≧ ≦*)ヾ

Xiang: I have something to do today, not logging on.

Xiang: Can’t go to the arena either.

Xiao Jing ya: T.T… Okay ba, I’ll wait for Gege to come back.

After class, Jing Huan opened up the game, took half an hour to finish his dailies, and then teleported back to the main city.

He stood by the soy sauce NPC for a while and suddenly found—he actually didn’t know what to do next.

Jing Huan frowned.

What did he usually do?

Dailies with Yearning For.

Instances with Yearning For.

Fight in the arena with Yearning For.

Once in a while, drag Yearning For with him to look at scenery and take pictures.

……..

Fuck.

Jing Huan, you’ve been living without a self identity.

No, after teaching Yearning For a lesson, he still wanted to go buy a DPS account and return to completely slaughter the other party.

Jing Huan decided to go find something to do.

He was just wandering around the team formation area when his friend notification flashed.

[Friend] Qiufeng: Xiao Jingjing, what are you doing?

[Friend] Xiao Tianjing: Trying to find a quest bus in the team formation area 0.0

[Friend] Qiufeng: You have a big heart, you actually dare to get in random buses.

Jing Huan had originally not thought anything of it, but now that Qiufeng mentioned it, he hesitated.

[Friend] Xiao Tianjing: Haha…. Do you need something?

[Friend] Qiufeng: Since your teammate isn’t here, why don’t we play in the arena together? My teammate is also not coming tonight.

[Friend] Xiao Tianjing: How did you know Gege isn’t here….

[Friend] Qiufeng: The arena starts in just two minutes, and he’s still not online yet.

[Friend] Xiao Tianjing: Uh.

[Friend] Qiufeng: It’s just fighting in the arena together. You can’t only fight PK with Yearning For your whole life, can you? And you have no opportunities to improve your skills when you’re on his team.

Jing Huan was stunned by what he said.

What Qiufeng said wasn’t totally unreasonable.

Yearning For’s personal ability was too strong. When teaming up with him, none of his occasional mistakes made much of a difference.

If this kept going on, he wouldn’t only slack off, but would also come to rely on him.

[Friend] Xiao Tianjing: ….Okay ba, where?

[Friend] Qiu Feng: ^ ^ Come to the entrance of the arena.

Today was Mama Xiang’s birthday, and Xiang Huaizhi had specifically come back home that day to eat dinner with her.

Mama Xiang didn’t like seeing him stare at a computer all day long, so he didn’t bring one with him.

Having had enough to eat and drink, Mama Xiang and her good sisters went to the mahjong room to play. Xiang Huaizhi sat on the sofa, took out his cell phone, and looked at it. There weren’t any notifications there.

When he opened WeChat, the guild group chat of Idle Pavilion jumped to the top, and the unread message notifications showed 99+.

[Don’t Ask when I’ll Return: What are these two doing in a small dark room!! ]

Xiang Huaizhi didn’t usually read the guild’s group chat. However, for some reason this time, after seeing this preview of the chat, he clicked on the group chat.

Don’t Ask when I’ll Return had pinned a picture. It was a locked room in the guild’s YY. There were only two people in it.

One was Qiufeng with an orange icon.

The other was Xiao Tianjing, who had obediently said, “My Gege is the best in the world,” in his ear a few days ago.
