Unfortunately, He Yi, Beiming Xue, and Murong Mingyue weren't in the CGL Hall of Fame yet. Truth be told, they were still a bit lacking, and Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls hadn't truly become the king of the China server yet. But if we kept fighting hard, our dream of becoming the king of the China server wouldn't be too far away.
That being said, there was one thing I was very confused about. Why was Lin Yixin still listed in the CGL Hall of Fame even though her account had been deleted?
I thought about it for a moment, and there was only one possibility. Shusheng and Ling Xue had negotiated with the CGL officials to get this result. Otherwise, Lin Yixin's ID wouldn't have appeared in the CGL Hall of Fame.
No matter what, this was definitely a good thing for both me and Lin Yixin. The other readers would normally read it:).
… …
At night, I received news that Warsky of Warsky Alliance, October Rain, Lin Bing Dou Zhe, Farewell Song, and more had arrived at Eternal Moon China headquarters in Beijing to petition for Lin Yixin's account to be reinstated. Luo River God of the Capital, Moonkiss, Stranger of Three Lifetimes and the others who lived not far away from Beijing also showed up at the headquarters. They were all important people in Heavenblessed, so the headquarters didn't dare to slight them. The vice president personally received them and promised that he would do his best. After all, they were all China citizens, and it would be an animal to not help one of their own.
I waited until past 6 pm, but I still didn't receive any news.
Thud thud...
Suddenly, He Yi's voice came from outside the door. "Lu Chen, Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls' celebration party is going to be held at a hotel in the city at 7 pm sharp. Do you want to come?"
He Yi knew that I was a mess right now, so she asked tentatively.
I thought about it and decided that it wouldn't be good for me to not go. I couldn't affect everyone even if I was in a bad mood, not to mention that Li Chengfeng, Gui Guzi, Chaos Moon and the others were doing their best to support Lin Yixin on the forums. Now, it was all up to the heavens.
So I replied, "Mn, I'll be right out."
He Yi smiled. "It's cold outside, so wear more."
"Okay!"
He put on a black coat and scarf and went out.
Beiming Xue, Murong Mingyue and He Yi were already waiting for me outside. They knew that Lin Yixin had been forced to use God's Tear and had her account deleted because of me. It was perfectly normal for me to blame myself, and it would've been strange if I had acted like normal.
"Are you feeling better, big bro?" Beiming Xue asked while holding my hand.
Yiyi is still alive and kicking. It's just a game account, and it's not like we can't get it back, right? "I said with a smile.
Beiming Xue also smiled. "Mn, it's good that you can think that way!"
He Yi was speechless.
I smiled and reached out to grab her hand. It felt a little cold as I said, "Sister Yi, if we can get Lin Yixin's account back, I'll have to take a few days off to help her level up."
He Yi nodded with a smile. "Yes, of course."
Murong Mingyue chimed in from the side, "What a beautiful move, Beauty Lin. Our Eve is in danger now. Lu Chen, don't tell me you're not going to come back, are you?"
"Of course not …" I felt a little awkward.
Murong Mingyue smiled slyly as she grabbed He Yi's shoulder and pushed our beautiful guild leader into my arms. "How about this? If you can win Beauty Lin's heart, both Eve and Beauty Lin will be your girlfriends. What do you think?"
I was so happy that I felt like I had eaten honey. What man wouldn't think this way?
Unfortunately, I had to pretend to be embarrassed. "That's not right, it doesn't make sense …"
"You're such a hypocrite …" Murong Mingyue glared at me.
He Yi gently slapped Murong Mingyue's hand away and said with a smile, "Alright, alright, stop fooling around. The girlfriend title is up to whoever wants it. I'm always by Lu Chen's side, aren't I?"
Beiming Xue whispered, "Big bro Thirteen said that girlfriends are the kind you can sleep with …"
He Yi's face immediately turned red. She said angrily, "Du Thirteen is full of naughty ideas. Beiming shouldn't talk to him anymore from now on. Come on, let's go!"
"Mn!"
After the awkward silence was broken, we left the room together. Just as He Yi said, it was cold outside. Before we knew it, it was already late winter.
… …
At a certain hotel in the city.
This time, they had spent a few hundred thousand RMB to reserve a hall. The players of Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls were all gathered in the hall, and they were all seated.
When we arrived, Chaos Moon was waiting at the door to welcome the guests. She said with a smile, "Okay, the guild leader, the two vice leaders, and Beauty Beiming are all here!"
Almost everyone stood up. There were at least a hundred of them.
Xu Yang saw my doubt and said with a smile, "Other than the members of the base, there are also a lot of Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls players from Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Anhui and so on. Don't worry, they're all brothers and sisters of Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls, and we're all on the same side!"
"Okay!" I nodded with a smile. "Where are we going to sit?"
"The main table, over there!"
"Oh, okay!"
I followed He Yi over and saw that the main table was filled with the guild's management players. He Yi, Beiming Xue, Murong Mingyue, Xu Yang, Li Chengfeng, Gui Guzi, Chaos Moon, and the leaders of the subguilds. There were 18 people in total, and the atmosphere was pretty lively. The big screen in the hall was playing a replay of Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls' Nation War. It seemed to be a terrible battle against the Behemoth Cavalry at Sunset Swamp.
… …
After we were seated, I motioned to He Yi. "Eve, you're the boss, so it's time to give a speech …"
He Yi couldn't help but smile. She had no choice but to raise her glass and rise to her feet. She said with a smile, "I am From Water, and I would like to thank everyone in Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls for your sincere cooperation. It's what allowed us to shine so brightly in this Nation War. Here's to everyone, to those who died in the Nation War!"
Everyone raised their glasses and drained them in one go.
After that, it was time to eat, drink, and chat.
I wasn't in the mood, so I kept watching my phone. It was past 10 pm by the time the banquet ended, and there was still no news from Shusheng.
When I exited the hotel, I was greeted by the cold wind and snowflakes.
It was actually snowing.
"Wah, it's snowing!"
Beiming Xue, Diamond Dust, Heaven's Rain, and the other girls were the happiest when they saw this. They promised to have a snowball fight when the ground was covered in snow.
The moment they mentioned a snowball fight, I felt a burning pain on my cheeks. I glanced at Du Thirteen and saw that the corner of his mouth was twitching. I remembered the snowball fight we had a few years ago. Every single one of them was ruthless and accurate. If I played with these girls, I'd probably die after the fight.
… …
I returned to the workshop. The night passed peacefully, and I didn't log into the game. I simply browsed the forums.
The next morning, he woke up from his dream. When he opened the curtains, he was stunned. It was already covered in silver outside. It was still snowing heavily. The snow was quite thick. It had not snowed so heavily in many years in Suzhou.
Beiming Xue's laughter came from the balcony.
Everything was quiet and peaceful.
Unfortunately, I didn't get a call from her.
It wasn't until evening that I finally received a call from Ling Xue. "Hello, Lu Chen?"
"Yeah, it's Ling Xue!"
"Hehe, it's done!"
I was overjoyed. "Really?
Did Lin Yixin really recover her account? "
"Mn."
Ling Xue giggled. "Don't get too excited just yet. She only recovered her basic account. Her equipment, level, and warehouse have all been reset, but her skills, Famous General Skills, and Divine General Skills are still there. She's a Level 1 account with the Great Earth Transformation, and thanks to our hard work, we managed to save her pet, the Ice Dragon. It's a Level 0 Immortal Rank boss pet ~ ~"
I was overjoyed. "That's great, that's great!
How did you guys do it? "
Ling Xue giggled. "Well, Shusheng went to the headquarters, found Executive Director Mark, and submitted a new list of the China CGL Hall of Famers. Then, he threatened Mark with the fact that Lin Yixin was the fifth most popular CGL player in the China server forums. At first, Mark refused to budge, but Shusheng decided to spend the night at his house, and he even invited a couple of China exchange students to hold a party by his fireplace. They sang 'Dear customer, you can't' in the middle of the night, so Mark knelt and agreed to restore Lin Yixin's account, hehe!"
"Mn, thank you, thank you so much!"
"Hehe, you're welcome. I'm going to eat now. See you if fate wills it!"
"See you!"
After I hung up, I dialed Clear Perfume's number and said in joy, "Qingqing, Yiyi's account has been restored. Tell me, where is she?"
Sun Qingqing asked, "Really?"
"Absolutely. President Ling Xue of Eternal Moon China's southern headquarters confirmed it. What do you think?"
"Alright. Are you going to find Yiyi?"
"Mn. Do you have an address?"
"Hehe, I just came back from there. Go ahead, it's in Shanghai. I'll send you the address. Everyone else, read it normally:!"
"Okay, thanks. I'll treat you to a meal when you're free!"
"Mn!"
… …
After I hung up, I received a message not long after. It was the address Sun Qingqing had sent me. I immediately bid farewell to He Yi and Beiming Xue before heading out. He Yi only reminded me, "It's snowing, and the ground is slippery. Drive at 80 mph on the highway!"
"Got it ~ ~"
I rushed downstairs, started my X12, and sped toward the address.
… …
The snow was falling, and I drove very slowly. I turned on all the headlights, slowed down, and sped toward Shanghai. The address was a villa area in the suburbs. It looked a bit similar to Ling Xue and Shusheng's place.
It was already dark by the time I entered Shanghai. The snow was so thick that it hindered my vision even more.
It was past 8 pm when I finally reached my destination.
Thud!
I walked out of the car. My head and scarf were immediately covered in snow, but I was too lazy to shake them off. I held the note and searched along the way. Finally, I saw a red villa sitting quietly in a corner. The windows were shining with warm light, and I could see people walking inside.
The wooden house looked a bit classical. As expected, Lin Xiao was pretty rich.
I walked around the house once, and Lin Yixin's voice came from the rightmost room on the first floor. "Mom, do you want milk tea?
I'll heat it up … "
"No, it's fine. Go back to your work. Everyone else, read it normally:!"
As expected, it was Lin Yixin's voice!
I was overjoyed. I looked around, but I didn't seem to have prepared a gift for her. There was no other way...
"# ¥% @ #% ¥%" — Later.
… …
Thud thud thud...
I lightly knocked on the window of Lin Yixin's room. She immediately walked over and opened the window with a squeak. She saw me standing there, covered in snow, and had a silly smile on my face. "Yiyi, I finally found you …"
"Ah?!
Lu Chen … "Lin Yixin was stunned. I didn't know if she was happy or surprised. Her beautiful eyes were covered in a layer of mist.
I pointed behind me at the snow at the edge of the fake mountain and said, "Look, happy?"
Lin Yixin poked her head out and saw the words "EE, I LOVE YOU" written on the snow.
"Hmm?"
Lin Yixin tilted her cute head and asked with a smile, "Why … why didn't you write a U at the end?
You're missing a letter … "
I blushed. "I'm out of pee …"
"You!"
Lin Yixin glared at me with a flushed face. The next moment, she did something shocking again. She abruptly opened the window and jumped out of the room wearing her fluffy slippers. She pushed me to the ground and stared at me with her beautiful eyes. She smiled and said, "Let me kiss you first! Don't say anything!"
Me: "..."
