This sleep was actually quite good, at least for Lu Zhihang, a person who often pulled all - nighters when work got busy.
Although he went to bed late last night, Lu Zhihang still opened his eyes punctually at 7:30 the next morning.
He toasted two slices of bread, spread butter and jam on them, and quickly finished eating before returning to his bedroom.
As usual, he logged into the game. Without any surprise, Lu Zhihang saw Lin Wan was already online.
Looking at the only lit icon in the friend list, Lu Zhihang couldn't help but curl the corner of his mouth. If Wang Wei were here right now, he would surely gape in astonishment. He had known Lu Zhihang for so long, but it was really rare to see him smile so tenderly. Lu Zhihang always wore a proper, polite but obviously aloof expression no matter when.
Lu Zhihang thought for a while, then typed a message and sent it.
At this moment, Lin Wan was killing monsters in the Fairyland on Earth. She nearly missed her dagger strike when she suddenly received a friend message. She quickly raised the short sword in her other hand and took three strikes to defeat the monster before looking at the chat box.
It was a message from Lin Shen Jian Lu.
"What are you doing, great master?"
Lin Wan gritted her teeth and pounded the keyboard hard, saying, "Killing monsters."
"Where?"
"Fairyland on Earth."
A look of understanding flashed in Lu Zhihang's eyes. He knew that Lin Wan must be here when she had nothing to do, after all, he had pretended to be Xiao Xiao Mu Yu and chatted with her for so long.
"Wait for me." After sending this message, Lu Zhihang directly used gold coins to teleport to the Fairyland on Earth.
Lin Wan was stunned for a moment when she saw this message. There was a strange feeling in her heart, but she didn't refuse either.
However, when Lin Shen Jian Lu appeared in front of her, Lin Wan felt that she regretted it.
"Great master, when do you think our wedding should be held?"
Lin Wan: ……?!
Not getting a reply from Lin Wan, Lin Shen Jian Lu smiled and didn't seem to be in a hurry. He said, "It's okay. I'll wait until you're mentally prepared."
"Th - that, re - really, is, so, thank, you, ah!" Lin Wan twitched the corner of her mouth and said through gritted teeth.
Lin Shen Jian Lu waved his hand with a big smile: "It's okay. It's a man's duty to be considerate of girls."
Clang——!
A cold light suddenly flashed before Lu Zhihang's eyes. He suddenly stopped speaking and instinctively moved his character back a step.
In the game, the assassin controlled by Lin Wan was slowly pulling out her blood - stained dagger. The blade emitted a chilling cold light, as if it were saying, "Go on. Say one more word and I'll send you back to the main city."
"Cough, well—" Lu Zhihang made a fist and put it against the corner of his mouth, coughing lightly to cover up the embarrassment in his tone.
Lin Wan raised her eyebrows, pulled out her short sword, and took out a square kerchief to wipe it carefully. From her field of vision, she could see that the musician named Lin Shen Jian Lu took another step back. A faint smile slowly appeared on her lips, very satisfied with his reaction.
"Why are you standing so far away from me?" Lin Wan finally put away her dagger and short sword, looked up at the musician as if she knew nothing.
Lu Zhihang: "……"
"Come here. I was just cleaning my weapons. Their durability is a bit low. I have to go back and repair them." She said softly, as if the silent threat just now never existed.
Lu Zhihang forced a laugh and said, "Haha, really? Let's go together. Let's form a team. Great master, spare some time to take me to level up later."
After the first cooperation, it was very easy for Lin Wan to accept the team invitation the second time. After she joined the team, she said, "I'm going back to Baidi City. Is your main city there?"
Lu Zhihang was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "No, but I have a pass there. Let's go together."
Hearing this, Lin Wan didn't say much. She nodded and directly clicked on the scroll of returning to the city.
Lu Zhihang arrived at Baidi City a little later than her. They went to the forging shop together to repair their weapons. Then Lu Zhihang bought a batch of potions. The way he splashed money without blinking an eye really startled Lin Wan.
"You're so... rich."
This was just a casual remark from Lin Wan, but unexpectedly, after hearing it, Lu Zhihang blurted out subconsciously: "Marry me, and all this will be yours in the future."
Lin Wan: ……
[System Message: Your friend Long Yan Ji Xu has left the team.]
Lu Zhihang: o.o
This was really not Lu Zhihang's intention. He just said it casually. He thought that this would be the result for the two of them in the end, but he really didn't mean it this time!
[Lin Shen Jian Lu]: Well, great master, I'm wrong. I was wrong, okay? I talked nonsense. I was just joking!
[Lin Shen Jian Lu]: Ah no, I wasn't joking with you. I just said it casually. I wasn't serious!
[Lin Shen Jian Lu]: Ah, no. I was serious. I...
……
Poor Lu Zhihang, a young star who had mastered the skill of talking to different people in different ways since junior high school, now couldn't even speak clearly in order to please his future wife.
Looking at the friend messages one after another in the channel, Lin Wan couldn't help laughing. The irritable mood that had been bothering her for the past few days because of Xiao Xiao Mu Yu was suddenly reduced a lot.
Finally, she didn't know if it was out of soft - heartedness or because she thought this guy was quite interesting when he talked, but she rejoined the team.
As soon as she joined the team, she heard a sigh of relief from Lin Shen Jian Lu's side in her earphone. Strangely enough, this ordinary sigh, at this moment, was like a small feather gently tickling her beating heart, making her heart skip a beat for a moment.
"Long Yan?" Lu Zhihang called tentatively.
Lin Wan suddenly came back to her senses. She felt a bit ashamed and annoyed at her own behavior just now. She forced herself to straighten her expression and then gave a non - committal hum. The sound was extremely soft and light, which made Lu Zhihang suddenly speechless.
"Are you still there?" Lin Wan finally regained her mood. Listening to the faint breathing sound in her ear, she frowned slightly.
Lu Zhihang came back to his senses with a start and quickly said, "Yes, yes, yes. I'm here."
"If you dare to speak without thinking next time, I'll..." Lin Wan pursed her lips and suddenly stopped in the middle of her sentence.
Lu Zhihang actually wanted to ask what she would do, but thinking of Lin Wan leaving the team just now, he immediately gritted his teeth and nodded submissively.
Just then, a prominent system announcement suddenly appeared on the computer screen.
[System Announcement: Bounty Mission: Jing Nanheng; The mission has now been released in each main city. Please go to the city gate to receive the mission.]
Lu Zhihang was stunned. He turned to look at Lin Wan who was also stunned beside him and asked, "Do you want to take this mission?"
Lin Wan frowned and pondered for a moment before saying, "No. I just know this Jing Nanheng."
Lu Zhihang was stunned: "Come to think of it, I actually know this guy too. How about we take this mission and give it a try?"
Lin Wan hesitated a bit: "But he's already level 100, and you're only level 83..."
Lu Zhihang smiled: "Don't worry. I can beat him even at level 83."
