Chapter 100 - I Only Want to Play a Small Role (1/2)
“If you climb to the window, you might be able to see me.” Ye Xiu laughed.
“Ah?” Su Mucheng was still wrapped in her blankets. She kept the blankets wrapped around and climbed to the window. She looked out and swept across the streets. Although the she was pretty high up and the people on the streets were pretty small, it was still easy for her to recognize familiar people. But when Su Mucheng scanned outside, she didn’t see anything: “I don’t see you…..”
“Diagonally opposite to you on the streets is a Happy Internet Cafe.” Ye Xiu said.
“Oh, I know that Internet Cafe.” Su Mucheng said. After all, she lived around here. Even though she had never been to the Internet Cafe, she still knew of it. Her gaze s.h.i.+fted to the Internet Cafe direction, but she still didn’t see him.
“Yeah, I’m in the Internet Cafe!”
“You’re pulling all-nighters again?” Su Mucheng understood Ye Xiu well.
“For work.” Ye Xiu said seriously.
“Work?”
“Right, I’m working in the Internet Cafe right now.” Ye Xiu said.
“Oh, that fits you well!” Although Su Mucheng said that smiling, she couldn’t help but grieve in her heart. It didn’t matter who switched, this type of gap in level couldn’t be adapted so quickly right? Ye Xiu’s tone seemed to say that like he couldn’t care less. There even seemed to be a trace of pride. But this guy…… had always been a “mouth says yes, heart says no” type of guy. Even for her, who was very familiar with him, sometimes didn’t know what he was thinking.
“Yeah, I’m on night-duty everyday. My life is awfully disciplined now.” Ye Xiu said.
“Where are you living?” Su Mucheng asked.
“The Internet Cafe takes care of food and shelter. Let me tell you this. This Internet Cafe’s lady boss is a super big fan of yours. Give me a signature some time later. If I give it to her, she’ll definitely raise my salary.” Ye Xiu said.
“Really? Then I’ll go visit you?” Su Mucheng said.
“This….. Do you want to visit me or do you want to be surrounded by fans?” Ye Xiu said.
Su Mucheng was helpless. It’s not like she didn’t know of this. Regarding pro-players like her, Internet Cafes were the number one forbidden place. If she went, then she’d definitely cause chaos. Su Mucheng’s skill level wasn’t considered top-tier in the pro scene, but her popularity didn’t lose to anyone. This was the beautiful girl effect. Just by relying on her appearance, advertising companies favored her highly. Most of the reason why Chen Guo felt that Su Mucheng was the best female player was because of this sort of PR effect.
For example, in the recent years, with his influence rising, Zhou Zekai could be considered the number one player. He might not be as skilled as the top-tier players like Huang Shaotian or Han Wenqing. But he looked handsome and was also stylish. He was suitable for the young and old. Both males and females liked him. The media praised his accomplishments. The advertising companies thought highly of him. From a business standpoint, Zhou Zekai was the undisputed number one. In addition, his skill really was good. Nowadays, the only thing he was missing was the t.i.tle of League Champion. If not, then he would have taken the throne of number one long ago.
“Then maybe later when there’s a chance!” Su Mucheng wasn’t in a hurry. Knowing that Ye Xiu wasn’t too far away and was even in the neighborhood, she immediately felt at peace.
“I saw yesterday’s match. You played pretty well!” Ye Xiu said.
“I don’t like Sun Xiang as a person, but…… he really is quite strong.” Su Mucheng said.
“But he’s still a bit inexperienced.” Ye Xiu sighed.
“Yeah……”
“Are you busy these days?”
“You still need to ask this?” The two had been so close for all these years. They understood each other’s lifestyle and habits extremely well.
“Come to the new server and help me set a new record.”
“You’re playing in the new server?” Su Mucheng stared blankly.
“Yeah!”
“You……”
“I transferred Lord Grim over.” Ye Xiu said.
At this moment, Su Mucheng was silent for quite a long time. She clearly knew a lot about this account.
“You’re planning on leveling this account?” Su Mucheng asked.
“Right.”
“Compared to leveling, the Thousand Chance Umbrella is even more troublesome right?”
“Right! But one year is more than enough time.” Ye Xiu said.
“And one year later?”
“I’ll return. I said that a while ago. “Ye Xiu said.
“Okay……” Su Mucheng suddenly felt like crying.
“What dungeon record do you want to set?” Su Mucheng suddenly felt that this was a problem. If Ye Xiu wanted to set a new record in the new server, why would he need her to help?
Soon after, Ye Xiu explained it to her. After hearing it, Su Mucheng understood: “So it turns out you were going to use this type of method to gather materials. No wonder you chose the new server. If things go smoothly, then you might not even need a year.”
“The crucial point is at Level 50. I still need to figure out how I’m going to upgrade it to Level 70.” Ye Xiu said.
“I’ll definitely come help you.”
“Okay. So you need to hurry up and level an account to 25. Afterwards, you also need to keep leveling with it, so that you’ll be available at any time.” Ye Xiu ordered.
“Sure…..” Su Mucheng smiled while agreeing.
After hanging up the phone, Su Mucheng’s mood became incomparably good. In reality, she wasn’t actually too interested in Glory. She only started playing the game to purely play a small role. Who knew that after all these years she’d risen to such a situation? So many people admired her, yet Su Mucheng only wanted to play that small role in her heart.
