『World』:
[Captain Mo]: Did I see that right?
[SC Panda]: Oh my god, the system has a bug!
[YouYou...]: I've been playing for so long and just realized this game allows duplicate names.
[Blood Oath of the Demon Path]: What is this! I got killed for nothing back then!
[Invincible Clumsy Blade]: Honey, let's get back together. These people are fighting the boss together, why can't we be together? Let's reconcile, I love you!
[No Pants, So Cool]: Damn, I just went to wash my underwear, and now I'm out of the loop.
[SC Panda]: Shocked, Cool Bro, you actually have underwear!
[No Pants, So Cool]: ......
[No Pants, So Cool]: Without underwear, I'm a beggar; with underwear but not wearing it, I'm a true hero.
[SC Panda]: Why wash it if you don't wear it?
[No Pants, So Cool]: Why are you so interested in my underwear, what are you plotting!
[On the Southeast Branch]: You two... please flirt in private... or the audience will be shy.
『Team』:
[Reed Vivian]: Nina, we're leaving. Call me if you need anything. If I'm not around, just find Ethan ^_^
[Thunder Nina]: Ah!!! Is that okay?!!!
[Smiling Naihe]: It's okay.
[Reed Vivian]: ^_^, we're off, bye
[Thunder Nina]: Wait, we haven't divided the loot yet.
The atmosphere in the cave was strange, and Vivian didn't want to stay any longer. She left the dungeon with Ethan without waiting for Nina to divide the loot. Looking at the calm white-clad musician beside her, Vivian asked, "What should we do next?"
"Hold on, I'm on the phone."
Phone?
Vivian thought of a possibility and felt a bit surreal, "Uh, you weren't on the phone while fighting the boss, were you?"
Vivian swore she was just asking casually, but the god's matter-of-fact "Mm" completely defeated her. It was true...
Vivian thought seriously for a while and couldn't imagine: "...How do you operate with one hand?"
"...Headset."
Oh right, you can use a headset to answer calls on a phone. Vivian was embarrassed and quickly said, "Then go ahead."
She didn't plan to stay online for long, but at this moment, the word "offline" didn't appear in Vivian's mind. Instead, the image of the god wearing a headset, calmly answering the phone, vividly appeared in her mind. Being able to multitask and perform such powerful operations while on the phone, the god was already incredibly strong in some way >o<
Vivian couldn't help but zone out, and the red-clad heroine on the screen sat quietly beside the musician, her red dress gently fluttering.
After a moment, the white-clad musician said, "Vivian, I have to go to Shanghai tomorrow."
*** *** ***
It was only eleven o'clock, but the cafeteria near the library already had a long line. Vivian and her roommates stood at the end of the line, looking at the crowded people in front, and sighed.
Erxi stood behind her, grinning mischievously, "Hey, hey, hey, even if your god isn't here, you don't have to sigh while eating with us!"
Vivian had heard this kind of talk several times in the morning while studying with them, so she didn't feel anything and just peeked to see what was on the cafeteria menu today.
Seeing no reaction from her, Erxi asked even more mischievously, "Vivian, how far have you and your god progressed?"
Vivian turned back speechlessly, "...We've only known each other for a week, okay!"
Sisi leaned over and said, "You confirmed your relationship in two hours, at this rate, you could have a kid in a week."
"..." Vivian: "In any case, nothing's happened, and I don't even know where the soy sauce shop is."
Xiaoling didn't believe it: "Impossible, is Shawn planning to boil the frog slowly?"
Vivian >_<: "You're the frog."
Xiaoling thought more and more it made sense: "That's right, it must be like that, first a big fire, then a slow simmer, eventually eating you, the frog!"
Erxi also caught on: "Makes sense, the god's strategy is probably like this, first a blitzkrieg, now playing infiltration, hehehehe." Her expression suddenly turned sly, "Vivian, when are you going to talk about a war of attrition?"
Sisi chimed in, "Right, first a storm that leaves you disoriented, then a gentle breeze that makes you dizzy, and finally, what kind of rain?"
Sisi was trying hard to think, and suddenly four words popped into Vivian's mind—
Wushan Cloud and Rain.
......
And then she was gloriously embarrassed.
Erxi was still persistently emphasizing: "A war of attrition, a war of attrition, endurance, endurance."
Vivian and the others still didn't understand her deeper meaning, and with a "pfft," a boy who had been standing behind them sprayed.
Four pairs of eyes turned to look at him.
He was a tall boy with a baby face and big eyes, looking like a high school student. He had been sneakily following them, and Erxi and the others had seen many boys like this with a thief's heart but no courage when they were with Vivian, so they didn't pay much attention.
The boy blushed under their gaze, scratched his head, and awkwardly said to Vivian, "Haha, Third Sister-in-law, I'm Mozar Ta (Moses)."
Vivian was confused.
Moses?! Hao Mei? The god's roommate?! The one she knew?! No way! Vivian stared at him, had he heard everything they discussed?! Ah, how embarrassing.
And...
Vivian remembered Moses's description of himself, supposedly darker than coal, and then looked at this fair-skinned guy...
Vivian was angry.
Alright, this guy never told the truth from the start, and yesterday he even falsely reported military information to frame her. With old grudges and new grievances, Vivian smiled kindly and said leisurely, "So it's—Beautiful—Senior—Brother—ah—"
And so...
Under the shocked gazes of everyone, Moses's fair baby face completely twisted.
Minutes later, Moses was gnawing on cabbage in a dark corner of the cafeteria, angrily pulling out his phone to complain to someone: Your wife is teasing me.
Soon someone replied: Enjoy being teased, I don't mind.
Moses immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.
It must be said, those two are truly in sync when it comes to driving people crazy without taking responsibility.
There was no news from Shawn all day, and in the evening, after returning from self-study, Vivian couldn't help but log into the game again. Of course, Shawn wasn't there, so Vivian went to their house, arranged the furniture, watered the flowers in the garden, and wandered around several times.
After a while, Yugu and Monkey Wine logged in, and Vivian joined them, giving Yugu and Monkey Wine the divine beast, and they chatted idly while running a dungeon.
Yugu: "The new instant noodles from Master Kang aren't tasty."
Vivian: "@_@ Even instant noodles have knock-offs?"
Monkey Wine: "He's a pig, so he eats Master Kang, we eat Kang Shifu."
Yugu: "Sigh, can't compare to Old Three, now he has fine wine and beauties around him."
Vivian: "..."
Moses, having suffered a loss to Vivian today, tried hard to sow discord: "Third Sister-in-law, don't be angry, come back and we'll help you teach him a lesson."
Vivian: ">o<, I'm not angry, I'm very pleased."
Vivian: "Yugu didn't even use the wrong idiom this time."
Yugu was aggrieved: "I didn't use an idiom, okay!"
Vivian: "Can't have too high expectations for you, four words count as an idiom..."
Yugu: "Actually, the idiom thing is because I have a psychological shadow from childhood."
Monkey Wine: "What's the difference between a psychological shadow and a psychological disorder?"
Yugu ignored him and sadly recounted: "You know the idiom 'Yugu Moves Mountains,' it's about an old man leading his family to dig a hole every day..."
Vivian quickly stopped his elementary school education: "I happen to know, no need to explain."
Yugu: "Oh, as long as you know, I'm called Yu Banshan, so I always said it as 'Yugu Moves Mountains,' and because of that, I was punished by my language teacher many times (angry)."
Monkey Wine: "...Your shadow is even simpler than my harmful gas release."
Moses: "...Turns out brain damage starts from childhood."
Vivian: "I'm kind, I won't say anything..."
Yugu went to a corner to grow mushrooms in grief.
Moses persistently asked Vivian: "Third Sister-in-law, are you really at ease with Old Three? Shanghai is a world of flowers, and the banquets are full of waves..."
Vivian: "Isn't he going to upgrade the system for Feng Teng?"
Moses was surprised: "Third Sister-in-law, you know too!"
Of course she knew.
The god had an 8:30 flight, and at 7:00 he even found time to have breakfast with her, reporting his itinerary and the number of days he'd be away.
Then he left unhurriedly.
>o<
"Third Sister-in-law, you only know one side, not the other," Monkey Wine said, "Upgrading doesn't require him to go. It's said that Feng Teng's boss wants to introduce a big client to Old Three, so he decided to go temporarily."
Yugu resurrected like a cockroach: "Hehe, if he can secure this project, Old Three will have his dowry."
Moses and he sang in harmony, pretending to be surprised: "Does the dowry need to be that much?!"
Yugu chimed in: "He's marrying the department flower, after all."
Vivian had the urge to grind her teeth, but she had never lost to "non-god" people in a challenge. Sending a smiling emoji, Vivian said: "No choice, the god has no ambition, doesn't want to marry a rich woman."
Yugu: "......"
A minute later, someone far away in Shanghai attending a banquet received another complaint message on his phone: "Your wife is bullying me."
Unnoticeably putting the phone back in his pocket, Shawn's lips curled slightly.
It seems that someone is having a good time even when he's not around.
However, the person happily in B City was about to experience joy turning to sorrow, thanks to Erxi's exclamation: "Oh my god, Vivian, quickly check the school forum."
