Seventy-two hours seemed like a long time, and he could do a lot of things. Fleeting Time did not have much time to himself. He had wanted to use the 72 hours to build a good relationship with Ye Ci, but in the end, the two of them spent the first 10 hours alone in the cell. The remaining 60 hours were as lively as a market.
Up Everyday, Genesis, and other players who were on good terms with the two of them rushed to the dungeon to visit them. Of course, when they realized that the two of them were locked in the same cell, they let out a sigh of disbelief. Even though they did not say anything, their eyes were filled with the desire for gossip.
Hero City's dungeon did not have any restrictions. As long as one paid the jailer a gold coin, they could enter and view the dungeon. This rule attracted a large number of onlookers who did not know the truth. They were sandwiched between the members of Up Everyday, Genesis, and other groups of friends and family. They expressed their great pity for the duo's imprisonment and were highly gossipy.
With the thought that the top-tier experts locked up in prison were no different from paper tigers, many of the braver players even began to tease the two fallen gods. However, there didn't seem to be any response.
Gongzi You sat in the innermost corner of the cell, while Fleeting Time sat in the rightmost corner of the cell. It was as if they had come to an agreement. Both of them faced the wall with their backs facing each other as they reflected on their actions. No matter who tried to tease them, they were all ignored.
Of course, there were also the occasional players who crossed the line with their questions, and they would receive a cold glare from Gongzi You or Fleeting Time. It was as if the glare was a threat: You'll regret it when you get out of here.
Every time a player received such a hint, they would rub their nose and silently leave the crowd. Even if Fleeting Time and Gongzi You were like toothless tigers, they were still tigers. It was not like they were going to be locked up for life. If they were angered, they would be the ones to suffer the consequences.
In addition to these people, there were also a few special people who came to visit the prison.
Spotless Autumn was the first to visit Gongzi You. As both of them were wanted criminals in the Northern Continent, Spotless Autumn immediately rushed to Gongzi You's cell to express his heartfelt condolences.
"Gongzi You, you must be released from prison soon! Good luck!"
"Gongzi You, you have to protect yourself! Don't get killed for no reason!"
… …
Spotless Autumn immediately noticed Fleeting Time who was being held in the same cell as Gongzi You. He immediately became alert and began to nag at Ye Ci. His concern for Ye Ci was obvious. Of course, Fleeting Time was displeased by Spotless Autumn's appearance. Fleeting Time remained silent as he stared at the man who seemed to be very close to Gongzi You. However, Spotless Autumn could feel that Fleeting Time's eyes were shooting arrows at him. It did not take long for him to be turned into a porcupine.
It was a pity that Spotless Autumn did not understand Fleeting Time's blatant attempt to chase him away. He even sat down and continued chatting with Ye Ci.
"Say, why do you want me to get out of prison so badly?" Ye Ci finally couldn't take it anymore, "Why do you want me out of prison so badly?"
"Aiya, don't you know that every player in the Northern Continent has their eyes on me now that you're in prison? That's so annoying! You can share some of my burden if you're out there, right?" Spotless Autumn had a cunning smile on his face, but Ye Ci really wanted to punch that smile off his face.
In the end, Spotless Autumn left the prison "reluctantly" under Ye Ci's cold gaze, and began his journey as a fugitive.
Ye Nantian was the next to arrive.
Ye Ci was surprised that Zuo Xiaolan was not present. The two of them had always been inseparable in the game, and Ye Ci found it strange that they were not present.
"Dad, why are you here alone?" Ye Ci stood up and approached her father's cell. Fleeting Time, who thought that it was just an ordinary man, almost choked on his breath when he heard how Ye Ci addressed him.
He hurriedly stood up. Although he wasn't too close to Ye Nan-Tian, he was definitely not far away. He stood there and humbly nodded to Ye Nan-Tian, "Nice to meet you, uncle."
It was a pity that Ye Nan-Tian was the one who wanted nothing more than to ruin his plans. Naturally, the result of his greeting was not a pleasant one. Ye Nan-Tian glared at Fleeting Time coldly, "I hate you!" It was obvious from his aura that he was emitting.
This was something that Fleeting Time did not expect. It was not because he was confident that Ye Ci's parents would like him, but he did not expect Gongzi You's parents to be in the game as well. Fleeting Time could understand Ye Nantian's disgust when he recalled the incident that happened in the forums a few days ago, but at the same time, he also sympathized with his fate.
Since Ye Nantian hated him, Fleeting Time did not do anything that would make him hate him even more. He greeted Ye Nantian politely and stood by the side with a smile on his face. He was neither servile nor overbearing, and he did not back down either. This surprised Ye Nantian. Fleeting Time is either very bad at reading people's faces, or he is very confident. While this did not change Ye Nantian's dislike for Fleeting Time, it did change his impression of Fleeting Time.
It was easy to say that he was confident. However, it was not an easy task to be confident at all times.
Ye Nantian's face darkened even more. He did not hold back as he scolded Fleeting Time, "People these days are very bad! Very bad! You have to open your eyes wide and watch. You have to mercilessly slap those hooligans to death! "
"The most important thing for a man is his sense of responsibility, not his looks. Even if he looks like a flower, he will turn into a flower sooner or later. The most important thing for a man is to treat you well and be responsible for you!"
"We can't do anything that we shouldn't do in this cell, right? I'm going to ask the NPC if we can move to another cell! The most important thing for a girl is her chastity! How can a girl and a boy be in the same cell? "
"You're still young. Don't worry. My daughter is so beautiful and outstanding. You can find any man you want …"
… …
Ye Ci was speechless as Ye Nantian continued to nag at Ye Ci. Ye Ci's face was filled with black lines. Although she already knew that her parents already knew about the photos on the forum, other than the discussion at breakfast that day, her family never mentioned it again. Ye Ci thought that her family had forgotten about the incident, but she did not expect Ye Nantian to hold a grudge against her.
Ye Ci felt a little strange when she saw Fleeting Time glaring at Fleeting Time. On one hand, she was happy that her father was standing up for her, but on the other hand, she felt that it was inappropriate. After all, Fleeting Time did not seem to be responsible for the incident. She was conflicted, and she did not dare to turn around to look at Fleeting Time.
Ye Nantian stood outside the cell for half an hour, and the prison guard finally came to chase him away. If it was not for the fact that one could only visit a prisoner once, Ye Nantian would have visited every day to express his dissatisfaction. Fleeting Time was still standing there calmly before Ye Nantian left. He smiled and nodded from time to time, as if he agreed with Ye Nantian's words. Ye Nantian was very displeased, and he left in a huff after glaring at Fleeting Time.
After Ye Nan-Tian left, unexpectedly, Zuo Xiaolan also showed up.
However, unlike Ye Nantian, Zuo Xiaolan did not seem to be interested in the life and death of her biological daughter. Instead, she placed all her attention on Fleeting Time. She called for Fleeting Time to stand in front of her and looked him up and down with a smile. She patted Fleeting Time's hair, muscles, and chest as she spoke. Ye Ci was dumbfounded, and she tried to stop her mother from doing so.
Fleeting Time did not express any anger or displeasure. He even maintained the same smile on his face, and answered all of Zuo Xiaolan's questions to ensure that Zuo Xiaolan was satisfied. Zuo Xiaolan and Fleeting Time's relationship was so good that Ye Ci's eyes almost fell out of their sockets. Zuo Xiaolan even invited Fleeting Time to visit her shop in Red Lake City, and Fleeting Time promised that he would do everything in his power to repay her invitation.
Only the two of them were left in the cell. Ye Ci did not know how to react to the smiling Fleeting Time. She scratched her head and said awkwardly, "Don't take my parents' words to heart. They … they're actually quite normal …"
Fleeting Time knew what Ye Ci was trying to say. He pursed his lips into a smile and interrupted Ye Ci, "They're very interesting people. They're very nice people."
Ye Ci's face darkened once again. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
