Things seemed to have calmed down. It was as if Dong Yin and Yi Cang had never existed. They had completely disappeared from Ye Ci's life. Even from Liu Chang's mouth, Ye Ci no longer heard anything about them.
Perhaps she was an ostrich, or perhaps she had simply given up. The feelings of the past ten years, the entanglements before and after her rebirth, seemed to have all been put down in the past few days.
As it turned out, if one really did not want to know, even in such a complicated game, one could still not ask or find out anything. The days flowed like sand through one's fingers, and the day of school finally arrived.
The day before, Ye Ci and Bai Mo had already returned the gaming pods to their rented apartment. After dinner, the two of them returned home.
Bai Mo had gotten a bicycle from somewhere. He parked it downstairs and patted the back seat with a smile, "Do you dare to ride?"
Ye Ci looked at Bai Mo from head to toe. She wrinkled her nose and laughed, "Hey, don't tell me we're going to get caught by the traffic police!"
"I've checked the route. There won't be any traffic police." Bai Mo straddled the bicycle. His handsome face flashed a radiant smile, "How about it? Are you willing to be a knight for once?"
Ye Ci laughed. She jumped onto the back seat, "I'm a fake princess. You can be considered a fake knight too."
The sun was setting in the west, and the earth seemed to be on fire. Ye Ci leaned against Bai Mo's back. She looked at the scenery that was constantly receding, as if it was going to burn away under the fiery scenery. She hummed a tuneless song, and completely relaxed her body and mind. To be honest, this was the most relaxed moment she had ever had since her rebirth.
"Ye Ci." A gust of wind blew past Bai Mo's forehead, bringing with it a slight chill in the chilly spring weather. His voice was not loud, but it was carried by the wind to Ye Ci's ears.
"What?" Ye Ci's voice was lazy. She leaned against Bai Mo's back and narrowed her eyes comfortably. Even her reply was somewhat absent-minded.
"Is the Blade of Steel matter over?" Bai Mo's voice was very soft, so soft that it was almost inaudible. This kind of voice was easily dispersed by the wind, but Ye Ci still caught some small details.
She did not answer. She sat quietly at the back of the bicycle, idly swinging her legs. She did not seem to be in a hurry to answer this question.
Bai Mo, on the other hand, acted as if nothing had happened. The two maintained the same posture as they made their way back to school.
After a long moment of silence, Ye Ci finally spoke up, "Who knows? As long as Thousand Sunsets doesn't come looking for me, it should be over."
"Then, what about Dong Yin?"
Although Bai Mo was not very familiar with Dong Yin and the others, he still knew them. After all, the four of them were childhood friends. When he was young, he often hung out at his aunt's house. Bai Mo had more or less seen them, but in the end, it was just a nodding acquaintance. However, he knew the relationship between Ye Ci and them. It was not an exaggeration to say that they were as close as siblings. Regarding the Blade of Steel matter, Bai Mo was not worried about Ye Ci's way of handling it. She had grown up and was very opinionated. He believed that Ye Ci would handle this matter well.
However, when it came to Dong Yin and the others, Bai Mo could not help but be a little worried. Even if Ye Ci was calm and opinionated, she was still a nineteen-year-old girl. Relationships were the most difficult thing to deal with. Especially when everyone used to be so close.
"This is probably the end of it." Ye Ci sighed. She narrowed her eyes and looked at the gradually setting sun. She was actually a little emotional. Although she was cold, although she did not talk much, and although she was more willing to count benefits after her rebirth, it did not mean that she did not have any feelings for the people and things that happened in the past.
In fact, it was the exact opposite. It was precisely because she had been reborn that these people and things were so precious to her that it was especially difficult for her to let go of them again.
However, sometimes, things were not completely under her control. Or it could be said that from the beginning to the end, there was not a single thing that was in her control.
"They can't separate their lives from the game. I can't separate them too. Since that's the case, let's end here."
Bai Mo only smiled bitterly and did not say anything else.
Life was like this. After all, some things had to be experienced to become more different.
Just like life, the game was as dull as it was.
Even for someone like Ye Ci, it was not every day that she would be able to shock the world. After discovering Hidden Treasure Gulf, the Eastern Continent was really lively. She also handed in Finley's quest. She did not know if it was because her completion rate was not high or if it was because she handed in the quest too late, but the quest reward was actually very ordinary. It was only the map of Hidden Treasure Gulf that was close enough, and nothing else. This was very different from the reward that Ye Ci had imagined.
However, Ye Ci did not complain because of this. In any case, to her, since she was able to start anew, it was all good luck.
Up Everyday, because of the first successful experience of starting a gold mining group, there was an endless stream of gold mining groups. In less than a month, the entire guild's funds had fattened up by several times. Timely Rain, who was in charge of finance, was so happy that he could not close his mouth at all.
Blade of Steel also seemed to have disappeared from Ye Ci's sight. Although they had been working hard and could occasionally see their names in the world channel, to Ye Ci, these were no longer worth her attention. Instead, it was the Tang dynasty that disappeared without a trace after that battle. No, it could only be said that they had disappeared without a trace from the places they appeared Up Everyday. It was as if they had never existed in the entire Eastern Continent.
In fact, they had always been there, but Ye Ci did not understand why they had suddenly gone silent after that battle.
Originally, the days would have been peaceful like this. However, on this day, Ye Ci suddenly received a private message. It was from The Red Dust.
"Hey, Gongzi You, long time no see."
Indeed, it had been a long time.
After all, they were not from the same continent. Ye Ci had thought that the next time they met would be a long time in the future. She did not think that this guy would appear in front of her again so soon.
"Eh? Why did you think of greeting me? "
"Gongzi, your words are so unfriendly." The Red Dust laughed dryly a few times, then began to chat with her. After chatting for a while, he finally opened his mouth, "Gongzi, actually, I want to ask you for a favor." If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me.
