Chapter 4: Wei Xiao, you used him, then tossed him away! (2/2)

He spoke fast and typed even faster. An entire paragraph of text was finished and delivered in the blink of an eye.

Bai Cai’s brain hurt. Looking at the WeChat message he’d just received, his brain hurt even more.

He was still going on about that goddamned cute little boss. Brother, you’re being eyed by the Great Demon King!

Unfortunately, he couldn’t say it.

Lu Feng had told him not to tell Wei Xiao.

Although he didn’t know why it couldn’t be said, Bai Cai wouldn’t dare to say it on his own.

He was afraid that once Wei Xiao knew that he’d sold him out, he would turn around and expose him in return.

Their revolutionary friendship had originally stemmed from mutual threat.

Once it was revealed, their boat of friendship could overturn at any moment.

“It’s nothing.” Bai Cai tried to act miserable and change the topic, “Isn’t it just that I saw the new rookie king and was moved by the scene?”

Wei Xiao knew that he had a psychological shadow about the words ‘rookie king’, and said, “Relax, Little Ning’s a pretty good guy. He’s not an old beast who will toss you behind and run off, or a blackheart who will pocket millions of your savings. Take good care of him; our small business is still looking forward to his patronage.”

Bai Cai rubbed his temples. This was the first time he’d seen anyone scolding themselves as an old beast so naturally and skillfully.

“You’ve already been bought out for two million. Do you still have time for others?”

Have a heart, you little bastard!

We Xiao said, “That’s not the same. My rich little cutie isn’t a professional player. How could they play games every day? I estimate that I’ll only be with her for two or three hours a day. The rest of my time can still be contributed towards our China competition zone.”

Bai Cai felt like his eyes had been burned painfully by this ‘little cutie’, “You decided that they’re a girl just like that?”

Wei Xiao: “Old Bai, develop some brains, okay?”

Bai Cai: “………”

Wei Xiao: “I set my account to male on the platform, and I also included an outstandingly handsome profile image. The one who placed the order must be a girl. What else could they be? Gay?”

Bai Cai stared at these words over and over again. He felt that if he forwarded it to God Lu, they might be able to eat braised Wei Xiao tomorrow!

“Haha.” Bai Cai sent him three words. “Conduct yourself well.”

Wei Xiao: “I keep feeling like you’re a little strange today.”

Bai Cai: “You’re delusional.”

Wei Xiao was vigilant, “You’re hiding something from me!”

Bai Cai: “Can I f*cking hide anything from you?”

Wei Xiao: “That’s true.”

To hell with your ‘that’s true’! Bai Cai was really worried of exposing the truth and quickly ended the topic, “I’m going to sleep. Bye!”

Wei Xiao: “Sweet dreams, memeda.”

Bai Cai stared at the last word for a long time and really wanted to remind him not to act so crazily in front of that new ‘big boss’, but…

Forget it, forget it. Seek your own happiness, comrade Wei!

Wei Xiao ultimately did get some sleep. He’d set his alarm clock for 12:30 noon.

He fed Soybean after he woke up and ordered takeout. After the human and the dog had both eaten their fill, they waited for the boss to come online.

“Soybean,” Wei Xiao rubbed the husky’s head and spoke to it, “This is my first piece of real business.”

Don’t judge based on how he’d been an accompanying player for so long. He’d really never taken on any regular orders.

Just based on his sky-high price of two hundred yuan per game, no player would be stupid enough to spend money to reserve him.

So, this was like an unmarried young woman on a bridal sedan chair––his first time!

“They’re here!”

Wei Xiao’s rich little cutie came online right on time. They weren’t a single minute early or late, and logged on right at 1:30.

Wei Xiao sent over a ‘good afternoon’ emoticon.

The other party was as discreet and cautious as usual. “Hello.”

They were really a very serious and proper little sister. Wei Xiao didn’t chatter on either and sent her the team invitation link.

He waited for a long time, but nobody joined the team. Wei Xiao tabbed out of the game and explained, “Log into the game first, then click on this link to join my team.”

The other party was silent for a while, “I’m in.”

Sure enough, it was a cute newbie!

Wei Xiao was very professional and patient, “No rush. Take your time and ask if there’s anything you don’t understand.”

LU: “Mm.”

Wei Xiao opened up the game, “I’ll take you to experience the game first.”

As a competitive game, <Glory> naturally had a ranking ladder. The ranking segments were also simple and clear.

Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, King.

Above the King rank were the individual rankings. Each region had its own ranking ladder, and there was also a world ranking.

The major regions weren’t limited to only the game servers, but also included the international competition zones.

For example, Asia, Europe, North America, and so on.

As of right now, across all the competition zones, the well-deserved first place was FTW’s captain Lu Feng.

This man, who’d won his third consecutive championship in the individual competition, had taken enough championship points to put a huge gap between himself and the second place.

However, at this moment, the world’s number one had just created a new account. Let alone individual rankings, this account had barely even started in the ranking segments.

The game entered the matching interface, but Wei Xiao suddenly closed the queue. “Wait a moment. I’m going to buy a skin.”

He’d purposely found an alt account in order to accompany the boss. Although the account had enough heroes, it didn’t have any skins.

It wasn’t long before Wei Xiao was back, “Let me show you this year’s champion skin.”

At the end of each world cup, the makers of the game would create a special skin for the champion.

This year’s singles champion was still Lu Feng.

This was Lu Feng’s fourth exclusive skin. It belonged to the shadow thief––Red Sky Blade.

There was a display page in the team interface. Wei Xiao controlled his thief and had it strike a cool pose, “What do you think? Is it badass?”

Lu Feng: “……”

Wei Xiao’s keyboard clattered as he typed, “I think that this is the most stimulating out of Close’s four championship skins. Look at this cape, look at this red blade, look at this special effect…”

After praising it for half a day, he finally came back to his senses, “By the way, you know who Close is, right? The world champion God Lu, FTW’s captain Lu Feng.”

Lu Feng was silent for a moment and typed, “Yes.”

Wei Xiao: “He’s not the reason you started playing the game, right? Ah, it’s okay, I get it. You young girls all go crazy when you look at his face. It’s a known fact that half of Glory’s female players all joined because of him.”

Lu Feng didn’t say a word.

Wei Xiao then went on to add, “To be honest, Close is really very handsome, even better looking than this championship skin. If I were a woman, I’d want to marry him too.”

Juurensha: ….well I’m sure Close is very happy right now.

xiin: Close: I’ll remember that.
