The room was completely silent.
Under his older sister’s gaze, Jiang Chen said coldly: “It’s not what you think.”
Jiang ShiLan suppressed a laugh: “Really?”
She knew that youngsters acted differently in front of elders and friends, but she never imagined JingXing would say those kinds of words. She was extremely surprised.
She recalled how JingXing had begged her previously. Looking at these messages, she guessed that he might genuinely have that kind of interest towards her little brother. It was really quite incredible, but she said verbally: “Same sex marriage has been legal for a while now.”
Jiang Chen was even colder: “……. It’s really not.”
Jiang ShiLan took a glance at her little brother’s expression: “En, I’m going back to the office to grab something first, then I’ll come by to eat with you in a bit.”
Saying this, she left and thoughtfully let him listen to the following messages by himself.
Jiang Chen resisted the urge to kill Fang JingXing and listened to the rest of the messages.
Perhaps it’s because they had just cleared the hidden dungeon that day, which made Fang JingXing recall what they did to pass, or perhaps Fang JingXing had to live stream on that day and saw a bunch of messed up messages left by fans. In any case, who knew what insanity overtook him, after sending that one teasing message, he returned to normal afterwards.
Yet coincidentally, Jiang ShiLan just happened to hear this message.
For a moment, Jiang Chen couldn’t tell if Fang JingXing was the asshole or it’s his own fault for being too unlucky.
When Jiang ShiLan returned, Jiang Chen had already calmed down. The cellphone was also turned off.
The two people automatically ignored what just happened and quietly ate lunch together. After eating, Jiang ShiLan cleaned up the table and looked towards her little brother, who was drinking water. Unable to hold back from putting in some good words for a certain someone, she said: “I’ve watched JingXing grow up as a child. He has a good personality and there are no issues with his moral integrity.”
Jiang Chen looked at her silently.
Jiang ShiLan finally couldn’t hold back her laughter: “You guys treat each other well in game, don’t argue.”
Jiang Chen said: “I’m going to sleep.”
As such, Jiang ShiLan made him digest his food before sleeping, then left with his cellphone.
Perhaps because of this little episode.
Jiang Chen dreamt about Fang JingXing during his afternoon nap.
They sat on top of the pillar inside the hidden dungeon and Fang JingXing was hugging him from behind. He didn’t use the Abysswalker’s face, but rather his own face and voice. As soon as he finished saying “Husband, you’re so impressive”, the people from the 7 large guilds and Indulge all came gushing inside. The cryofreeze team and Jiang ShiLan were also amongst the crowd. Even volunteer #7, whose face Jiang Chen couldn’t see clearly, was present.
Everyone stood below observing them. They applauded and congratulated them for tying the nuptial knot, even setting off fireworks and playing <<Happy Days>> where they stood.
When Jiang Chen woke up, he stared at the ceiling, recalling the horrible images inside his dream. Expressionlessly recovering for half a day, he finally picked up the glasses next to him. As soon as he entered the game and looked up, he saw the Abysswalker next to him.

Jiang Chen fell silent briefly.
With Fang JingXing’s temperament, he probably wouldn’t stand there and let Jiang Chen hit him for no reason. Jiang Chen reluctantly switched off PK mode.
Fang JingXing naturally wasn’t stupid: “What’s the matter?”
Jiang Chen just said that his phone broke yesterday, so it’s not like he can slap his own face and bring up the phone messages today. Not to mention, it’s already happened so many days ago. Fang JingXing probably already forgot that mishap himself.
As such, Jiang Chen provided a reason that was close to the truth: “You pissed me off in my dreams.”
Fang JingXing instantly didn’t know if he should laugh or cry: “How did I piss you off?”
Jiang Chen pointed at the empty spot on the side: “Go over there. Don’t talk to me right now.”
Fang JingXing felt even more dumbfounded: “I feel slightly wronged here?”
Can you be more wronged than me?
Jiang Chen turned his head and walked off, ignoring him.
Fang JingXing followed him leisurely. Gazing at the Wardcaster’s back, he examined his own mood.
Although he was disdained again, his mood wasn’t affected at all, and even felt somewhat happy.
He couldn’t help but review everything he knew so far and discovered that the Wardcaster disdained him regularly. Feeling exasperated, he wanted to know if he had some kind of masochistic tendencies to gain feelings even like this.
In any case, it couldn’t be due to the fact that he’s used to being praised by others that he succumbed so easily after meeting someone who didn’t like him.
After all, most of those team captains from the Wandering Dreams League were annoyed with him. They were also strong in their own right— all following the model of “disdaining him + good skills”, how were they any different from the Wardcaster?
……. There were huge differences, alright?
As soon as this question popped up, Fang JingXing immediately provided an answer.
What he felt towards those team captains was at most admiration. What he felt towards the Wardcaster was cherishment.
Perhaps it had something to do with him wanting to recruit the other and his issue with being overprotective.
Missing each other the first two times, he didn’t really feel anything. However, after the 3rd miraculous encounter, he has added the other into his territory already.
He was too curious about this Wardcaster.
The more curious, the more he wanted to know. The more he wanted to know, the more he cherished.
Emotional matters have always been illogical.
Fang JingXing was still weighing inside his head if this was the normal kind of cherishment or did he really have intentions towards the guy while his gaze already chased after the Wardcaster for two blocks. He asked: “Are you lost?”
Jiang Chen said: “No.”
Fang JingXing said: “Then do you know that you’ve turned around again?”
“I know.” Jiang Chen didn’t even look back: “I wanted to walk in another direction.”
Fang JingXing examined his tone and guessed that he was no longer angry. As such, he walked next to the other and walked another block with him. Seeing him stopping again, he asked: “What?”
Jiang Chen said: “I thought about it and decided it’s better to walk in the same direction as before.”
Fang JingXing raised an eyebrow and was just about to ask the reason when he saw a familiar figure ahead of them. It was the League Chairman, Du FeiZhou.
He greeted: “What a coincidence, Chairman. Why are you here?”
Du FeiZhou said: “My guild is over here.”
Fang JingXing was surprised: “Really?”
As soon as he said this, he suddenly recalled when he and the Wardcaster came over here to complete the [Blood Wolf] quest, he logged in and discovered that the Wardcaster had disappeared somewhere. Later on, the Wardcaster didn’t explain where he went either.
As such, he asked: “Where?”
Du FeiZhou pointed for him: “Over there, not far from here.”
That was precisely the place a certain someone tried to turn back to. Glancing at the Wardcaster, Fang JingXing had a feeling that the other was wandering back and forth like this because he was trying to bump into Du FeiZhou. As such, he attempted to extend the ladder: “We came over here to play the hidden story quest.”
Jiang Chen said immediately afterwards: “We’re searching for a few NPCs, can’t find them.”
So it’s true?
Could it be, the last time when the Wardcaster met with Du FeiZhou, he learned that Du FeiZhou was very familiar with this place?
But was it necessary to hide this from him……? Fang JingXing inconspicuously chimed in: “Chairman, you’re always over here. Are you familiar with the NPCs in town?”
Du FeiZhou said: “Familiar. Who are you looking for?”
Jiang Chen was very pleased.
Some Wandering Dreams players didn’t like quests and knew nothing about the background, focusing only on fighting and killing. Some, however, really liked the story inside and knew everything. Du FeiZhou and his old friends belonged to the latter.
Back then, Du FeiZhou seemed serious and mature, but really loved to study things in detail.
In the past, when they formed their guild in game, Du FeiZhou and his group examined all the NPCs, nooks, and crannies in the city.
But it’s been 30 years. He wasn’t sure if their interests changed or not. Good thing, they didn’t change.
He already wanted to ask in the morning, but when he checked his friend list, none of the Old but Vigorous members were online. Most likely, they had been enjoying the vacation with their family. Just now he saw the notification of Du FeiZhou coming online and for a moment, hesitated over whether or not he should send a private message. As such, he thought he’d try and see if he could bump into the other. Who knew it actually worked.
So he described the NPCs for Du FeiZhou.
Du FeiZhou said: “I didn’t accept the quest. From my perspective, those NPCs are still in their original locations. However, I know where the cemetery is. Want me to bring you guys over there to take a look?”
Jiang Chen said: “Alright.”
The guild leaders had dispersed inside the town in search. Hearing the Ace call them, they thought it’s because a clue had been discovered, so they rushed over to meet up. Unexpectedly, they saw the Untamed Ranger and asked in surprise: “Who’s this?”
Jiang Chen said: “My friend. He knows the location of the cemetery.”
Wooden Shackles said: “There’s a cemetery here?”
Du FeiZhou said: “Yes.”
As such, the group followed him to a small abandoned courtyard inside the town.
Walking through the front yard and arriving at the backyard, which was overgrown with weeds, in the end, they stood in front of a motley wall and heard him say: “It’s right over the wall.”
“……” The group said: “There’s no door?”
Du FeiZhou said: “No, it’s a completely confined area.”
Wooden Shackles instantly felt deep veneration and changed his address: “Ace, how did you figure that out?”
Du FeiZhou pointed behind him and indicated for them to look up.
The crowd looked over in unison and discovered it was the town’s shrine. Du FeiZhou said: “Where the two dove statues are located on the roof, there’s a small window. You can climb up through there and stand on the roof. Looking around, you can see this cemetery.”
Who would climb a roof randomly like that?
Wooden Shackles and the others remained silent at first and then smacked their thighs: “Shoot, the doves!”
