Chapter 373 The Real Player Yuan (1/2)
”I will stay here to watch over him. You guys can leave.” Xi Meili volunteered to stay behind even though that wasn't necessary. However, she wanted to be here when he woke up so that she could congratulate him.
”Are you sure? This will take some time. We can simply block access to this area so that nobody could disturb him.” The Dragon Emperor said to her.
”Yes, I want to stay here.” Xi Meili nodded.
”Do as you please…”
The Dragon Emperor left with the others shortly after.
”What happened to her? It's like she's obsessed with him.” The Dragon Empress asked her husband after they left, as she was unaware of the bet he made with Yuan.
”She likes him.” The Dragon Emperor said with a slight smile on his face, and he continued, ”And she wants to marry him.”
”What?”
Everybody there turned to look at him with wide eyes filled with shock, especially Wang Xiuying and Xi Murong.
”She wants to marry that human?! A dragon with royal lineage?! That's blasphemy towards our bloodline!” Xi Murong exclaimed, clearly disapproving of her decision.
Meanwhile, Wang Xiuying wondered what would happen if a player marries an NPC.
'There are plenty of players out there that are currently in a romantic relationship with an NPC, so I guess marriage isn't too far-fetched…' She thought to herself.
”I think it's cute.” The Dragon Empress said, and she continued, ”I couldn't care less if she wants to marry a human or a dragon. I only care about one thing— his qualifications. And from my understanding, Yuan is more than qualified to join our Royal Family.”
”Y-You too, mother?” Xi Murong looked at her with disbelief.
”Anyways, it's her decision, and I will respect it.” The Dragon Empress said.
Then she looked at Xi Murong and said, ”If you have a problem with it, why don't you confront her about it?”
”I… I would rather not…” Xi Murong responded in a reserved voice.
Despite being the older one, he feared Xi Meili a little, especially whenever she's angry.
Sometime later, the Royal Family returned to their business whilst Wang Xiuying returned to her room before logging off.
”Since it's going to take some time before he wakes up, I'll take a small break from the game and help grandpa out at the hospital.” Wang Xiuying mumbled to herself after leaving the game.
After stretching her body, Wang Xiuying left her room and went downstairs to watch some television.
In this day and age that's dominated by video games, it was only natural for television to be heavily involved with video games. In fact, the most popular channels in the world are gaming channels that talk about the current trends and whatnot for certain video games.
”Let's see if there are any new trends for Cultivation Online…” Wang Xiuying went to the channel that was dedicated to Cultivation Online news.
”Today, we will be interviewing one of the players in Cultivation Online who claims to be Player Yuan!” The speaker on the television spoke while a young man wearing a black mask sat beside him.
Wang Xiuying immediately raised her eyebrows after seeing this 'Player Yuan' who was obviously a fake.
