Be Strict on HonestyCh7 - Joining Guild

All the guild officers were offline, so Night Ferry told Yang Juan to submit an application to join the guild tomorrow. 

When Zhuo Lan came back, Yang Juan caught him up to speed.  e0FEJC

He could not believe it and asked suspiciously, “You did not secretly take classes behind my back, did you?”

Yang Juan did not understand. “What class?”

Zhuo Lan sighed and put his hand on his friend’s shoulder. “It’s nothing.”

Now he thought about it, Yang Juan was not the first exception, the first one was Sprig. UsGm 6

Before Apricot Sprig joined their guild, she was a member of No Birds in Flight

When Errant Wolf wanted to let her into the guild, many of the veteran guild members were in opposition, and even suspected that she was a spy sent from No Birds in Flight. 

This was a medium-sized small guild, and the story was they inserted their own guild members into some top-tier guilds. 

Errant Wolf confirmed that Sprig had no contact with No Birds in Flight’s top management, and cleared her of any suspicion of being a spy.

Only then did the veteran guild members agree to her joining the guild. 

“Our guild leader is thinking with his dick.” Zhuo Lan complained resentfully, “Who knows if her photo is of herself.”

“Guild leader?” Yang Juan was already lost. 

“Oh, it’s Lang-ge. You have seen him before.” Zhuo Lan explained.  GC1FrB

“Oh.” Yang Juan said. 

On Thursday evening, Yang Juan requested to join Smoke Beacon. 

The man who accepted his request was Errant Wolf. 

At that time, Zhuo Lan was also online.  DC3L0r

The guild would receive a system notification if someone joined the gild, so messages began to pour in from guild members. 

The people Yang Juan met before were not among them, so all the welcome messages were from unfamiliar IDs.

[(Guild) First Shift Worker: Welcome new member (scatter flowers) (scatter flowers) (scatter flowers)]

[(Guild) Old Zhao Next Door: Hello new miss!] X72V G

[(Guild) Toro Tapioca Pudding: The new member’s name is so cute!]

[(Guild) Mango Mille Feuille: An account not at full level, an alt? (surprise) (surprise) (surprise)]

[(Guild) Eat Cornetto Growing Up: Which big shot’s side account are you?!]

[(Guild) Which Cookie Are You: I can tell this is a cute and soft girl by her name (drool)] 0adv7c

Zhuo Lan stepped out and explained. 

[(Guild) Willow Tree Dear: This is my roommate.]

[(Guild) Sheep Curls: Hello, everyone.]

We’re sorry for MTLers or people who like using reading mode, but our translations keep getting stolen by aggregators so we’re going to bring back the copy protection. If you need to MTL please retype the gibberish parts.

[(Guild) Cherry in Snow Breeze: Isn’t it stated in our guild rule that side accounts must be at max level to join the guild?] XH72iJ

Vcffglcu, Iteb Ojc asqfv j gfyexf.

[(Guild) Willow Tree Dear: So are you saying that no one can be an exception except for Apricot Sprig?]

Coafg rfcvlcu atf wfrrjuf, tf ifjcfv yjmx lc tlr mtjlg jcv aegcfv ab Tjcu Aejc, ktb kjr rlaalcu jmgbrr atf ajyif. “Ktlr Jtfggs lc Vcbk Dgffhf lr j mibrf oglfcv bo Cqglmba Vqglu, rb sbe rtbeiv qjs cb wlcv ab tfg.”

Tjcu Aejc gfqilfv, “Yxjs.” lA1bnm

[(Guild) Cherry in Snow Breeze: Are you saying that all kinds of goods can be an exception? Once the marriage system is released, Sprig is going to marry Lang-ge.]

As soon as the other party made this statement, anyone with an eye could see that the newcomer might have offended her and her friend.

Seeing that the atmosphere of the guild was getting restless, Sprig appeared at the right time to amend things. 

[(Guild) Apricot Sprig: Cherry, forget it.] dRuJ3h

Instead of letting it go, the message stirred up Cherry in Snow Breeze’s urge to fight the injustice.

[(Guild) Cherry in Snow Breeze: What do you mean forget it? You are the one getting bullied because of your good temper! Are you saying that we should not talk about the things she has done? She tried to seduce Long-ge while Sprig was away (sneer)]

The guild members online loudly exclaimed on the wonderful drama as each of them lurked to eat melon seeds. 

Zhuo Lan could not hold back his anger as he smacked the table and yelled, “Fuck, why are these two putting up so much act?”  evzr6I

After cursing, he looked back and found Yang Juan had his head lowered, calmly typing on his keyboard with both hands. 

He got up to look.

Yang Juan happened to finish typing his message. 

[(Guild) Sheep Curls: I did not seduce Errant Wolf, but Apricot Sprig threatened me. If I do not change my name, she said she will kill me until I do.] XaVh0m

Apricot Sprig’s face darkened. 

Zhuo Lan felt better in an instant. 

Errant Wolf sent a message in the guild chat. 

[(Guild) Errant Wolf: Why are you all wasting time arguing, why don’t you spend time leveling if you have time to argue. If any of you become a burden in this month’s guild war, do not expect me to show mercy.] aP1ysq

Since Sprig was already at max level. 

It was clear who this statement was directing to, and who it was defending. 

Fuming, Zhuo Lan cursed, “Bastard couple!” 

Sprig was radiant with happiness.  Wu9hZe

[(Guild) Apricot Sprig: Hubby, you are here (grievance)]

[(Guild) Errant Wolf: Wife (hug)]

[(Guild) Apricot Sprig: I will only be happy with hubby’s kisses.]

[(Guild) Errant Wolf: (beat up)] AJp0jr

[(Guild) Errant Wolf: Sorry wife, I clicked the wrong one (kiss)]

[(Guild) Apricot Sprig: No worries, hubby, love you (kiss)]

After the display of affection in the guild chat, Sprig sent a private message. 

[(Friend) Apricot Sprig: Hubby, check your QQ. I sent you a new selfie I took, teehee!] XCFiIR

This did not pique Errant Wolf’s interest at all. Avoiding this by giving a too busy reason, he logged off and switched accounts. 

[(Friend) Night Ferry: Come to Luoyang City, I will take you to do a quest.]

Please support our translators at chrysanthemumgarden (dot) com

When Yang Juan received the message, he was on his way to meet Zhuo Lan. 

Out of anger, his friend wanted to take him to Kunlun Cliff to see the scenery.  7KNwoH

In the game, the dancer stopped. Yang Juan turned his head and said, “Blustery Dead of Night wants to take me to do a quest.”

When Zhuo Lan heard this, he waved happily. “Then get going.”

Yang Juan looked back at the screen and moved his character in the direction of the transportation array.

Following Night Ferry’s instructions, he arrived at the inn entrance of Luoyang City. iXPN03

Night Ferry jumped down from the roof of the inn, summoned the white tiger mount in his inventory, and sent out a mount request. 

Yang Juan accepted the request, and watched as the dancer jumped and sat down in front of the assassin. 

[(Friend) Night Ferry: Have your quest list refreshed?]

Yang Juan opened his quest list and looked through it.  V8qYPB

[(Friend) Sheep Curls: Yes, I got a new quest to find the clinic’s owner in Luoyang City.]

The tall and imposing white tiger carried the two players through the street and rushed to the location of the clinic. 

When they passed the market where players set up stalls, the white tiger suddenly slowed down. 

Night Ferry browsed through the stalls, and finally, he bought a cute fox accessory and sent Sheep Curls a trade request.  BX5Ui

[(Friend) Sheep Curls: ?]

[(Friend) Night Ferry: Doesn’t it look good?]

[(Friend) Sheep Curls: It does.]

[(Friend) Night Ferry: If it does, accept it.] EHOzuF

Yang Juan hesitantly counted his entire in-game fortune. 

[(Friend) Sheep Curls: I cannot afford it.]

Chrysanthemum Garden.

[(Friend) Night Ferry: You do not need to pay for it, it is a gift.]

[(Friend) Sheep Curls: Why are you giving it to me?] LFHeBx

Night Ferry impatiently replied.

[(Friend) Night Ferry: It is a gift so just accept it, why are you asking so many questions.]

[(Friend) Sheep Curls: Then I do not want it.]

Night Ferry was getting a headache again.  it9A4

After a long time, the person sitting in front of the computer gave a light cough and began to type with his head down. 

[(Friend) Night Ferry: Don’t girls like you get happy when you receive gifts?]

—Girls will be happy when they receive gifts.

Yang Juan pulled out his pocket notebook and took notes, doubting the fact but absorbed the information seriously.  LK0RlG

Then he replied honestly. 

[(Friend) Sheep Curls: But I am not unhappy right now.]

Night Ferry did not believe him. 

[(Friend) Night Ferry: You are not angry after someone scolded you?] o8cvQ5

Yang Juan felt that there was no need to be angry when it came to insignificant people in his life. 

[(Friend) Sheep Curls: I am not angry.]

Night Ferry furrowed his brows in thoughts. 

Was this little spy trying to put up a front at his face, or was this dancer simply have a good-tempered? P5mOge

[(Friend) Night Ferry: Are all of you girls like this? Not get angry with these kinds of things?]

Yang Juan pondered on the question, then slowly lowered his eyes and typed—

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

—[A little.]

But before he could press enter, someone took over his keyboard from behind.  Ciq4l3

“You dummy.” Zhuo Lan deleted the two words, and his fingertips danced quickly on the keyboard. “At this time, you should say you are very angry.”

[(Friend) Sheep Curls: If I am angry, so what? No one will side with me even if I am angry (grievance) (sob). If I tell gege that I am very angry, will gege coax me (grievance)]

When the fingertip left the enter button, Zhuo Lan smoothly reached out to pinch Yang Juan’s cheek. “See that? For you to learn.”

Yang Juan nodded.  KzdWLI

Zhuo Lan pressed his shoulder, stood up, clearly and logically analyzed, “Next, he will coax you because of my message, so you can take the chance of him pampering you to act coquettishly…”

Night Ferry’s message entered their eyes. 

Zhuo Lan’s confident smile instantly froze. 

[(Friend) Night Ferry: ?] wH0hE3

[(Friend) Night Ferry: Who are you? Or is this some truth or dare joke?]

Zhuo Lan turned blue with anger.
