Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Due to the PvP tournament, the tournament was not only broadcasted in the major arenas, but also in the heart of every major city. Ye Ci stood at the central plaza of Twilight Haze City. She tore off a piece of roasted meat and stuffed it into her mouth as she watched the two players on the screen.
Fleeting Time and Deadly Poison.
A Huntress and a Druil.
In fact, these two classes weren't mainstream classes. However, it was these two fringe classes that showed everyone the highest level of combat. Dazzling skills, dazzling controls, pets, traps, transformations, crowd control, the unique combat techniques of these two classes filled the spectators' eyes like a blockbuster movie. This was no longer a PvP battle. It was more like a tour of Fate. The spectators were able to see the most shocking aspects of Fate in the short span of ten minutes.
There were less than three minutes left before the end of the battle. Ye Ci tossed the last piece of meat into her mouth and chewed it with relish. She closed her eyes as if she was enjoying the taste of her meal. She stood up and cleaned up the pieces of meat that had fallen onto her body. She turned around and walked towards a small house at the side of the plaza. It was a place she had purchased in Twilight Haze City. With her current status, it was not appropriate for her to constantly travel to cities across the continents.
Ye Ci walked into the house and shut out all information about the PvP tournament. She leaned against the door and took a deep breath before logging off.
It was still early. Ye Ci walked out of her house and was about to take a bath when she bumped into Zuo Xiaolan. Zuo Xiaolan looked at Ye Ci in surprise, "What's wrong with you today? Why did you log off so early? "
"It's nothing. I'm just tired. I wanted to get some rest." Ye Ci wiped her face and forced a smile. Zuo Xiaolan took a few more glances at Ye Ci before walking towards the living room, "I have something good. Do you want to give it a try?"
"What?" Ye Ci was about to head to the bathroom to take a shower, but she turned her head when she heard Zuo Xiaolan's words. She watched her mother, who had a great figure, run to a hidden cabinet in the living room in her cotton pajamas. She opened the cabinet door and reached her hand into it to search for something. After a while, she turned and smiled at Zuo Xiaolan. Ye Ci felt more and more strange. She looked around the other rooms. Bai Mo and Tan Polang were still in the game capsule. Her father should be in the game capsule as well. For a moment, only she and her mother were left in the room. Her mother's mysterious appearance made her very curious.
She walked up to her mother and saw her mother stuffing something into her pocket. She then ran to another cabinet and took out a bottle of red wine and two wine glasses. She winked at Ye Ci with a mischievous smile on her face. It was a mischievous expression that did not match her age. She held the wine bottle in one hand and stuffed the two glasses into Ye Ci's hands. Then, she grabbed Ye Ci's wrist and led her to the balcony. She locked the door and sat down on the floor. She placed the wine and glasses on the small table in front of the room. She looked up at Ye Ci and said, "Why are you still standing there like a fool? Come and sit down."
Ye Ci looked at her mother and pursed her lips, "Mom, are you taking me out for a drink?"
"Why? Can't I? " Zuo Xiaolan laughed. Ye Ci had no choice but to sit down. Then, Zuo Xiaolan did something that made her even more flabbergasted. Zuo Xiaolan took out a pack of cigarettes from her pocket and threw it on the table. She took out a cigarette and lit it up. Then, she took a deep breath and slowly exhaled the hazy smoke.
Ye Ci stared at Zuo Xiaolan with wide eyes. Her face was fair, and her hair was curled up like seaweed. Her fingers were long and slender, and her nails were round and smooth. The cigarette between her fingers flickered as though time had gone back many years. She looked like an enchanting woman in an old Shanghai painting. Ye Ci had never seen this side of Zuo Xiaolan before. She did not even know that Zuo Xiaolan smoked. Judging by her nimble movements and practiced posture, she was definitely not a novice who had just started smoking.
"Why are you looking at me like that? Have you lost your mind? " Zuo Xiaolan looked at Ye Ci's stunned expression and chuckled. Then, she blew a puff of smoke on her face. Ye Ci was still in a daze. Her eyes did not blink, and she coughed a few times expressionlessly. After a while, she seemed to find her voice, "Mom, you smoke …"
"Is it strange?" Zuo Xiaolan raised her eyebrows. Under the moonlight, she looked so enchanting that one could not take their eyes off her.
Ye Ci knew that Zuo Xiaolan was beautiful since she was a child, but she did not inherit her eyebrows at all. According to the common saying, some children were good at growing up, and they were good at growing up. She was one of those children who were bad at growing up. Her parents were both good-looking, but she was very ordinary. Her appearance was not as good as her parents. She used to be depressed about this for a long time, but later … she got used to it. However, she never knew that the beautiful Zuo Xiaolan had such a side to her. It really surprised her.
She tilted her head, thought for a while, and nodded, "I always thought you were a good wife and mother."
Zuo Xiaolan immediately raised her eyebrows. She reached out her hand and slapped Ye Ci's head, "You brat, are you saying that I'm not a good wife and mother now?"
"You said it yourself." Ye Ci mumbled as she rubbed the spot where she was slapped.
Zuo Xiaolan glanced at her flirtatiously. Then, she turned her head, grabbed the wine bottle, and poured herself a glass of wine. Yes, a full glass. Ye Ci was still stunned. Then, she muttered, "Mom, I don't think that's how you drink red wine."
Zuo Xiaolan snorted in disdain, "The fate of wine and water is the same. They are all poured into the stomach. Why do you care how I drink it?"
Ye Ci rubbed her nose and looked up at the sky. Fine, she was being nosy. Zuo Xiaolan filled her glass and Ye Ci's. She held a cigarette in the corner of her mouth and said heroically, "Drink up. If it's not enough, there's more here." This time, Ye Ci was speechless. The corner of her mouth twitched even more. Zuo Xiaolan looked up at her and snorted, "What? Don't tell me you've never drunk or smoked before. " Ye Ci felt petrified. She sat there and looked at Zuo Xiaolan. She didn't know what expression she should use to tell her that she had never drunk or smoked in real life. Zuo Xiaolan became even more arrogant, "Little girl, you're not as good as me. Back then, I …" She paused and waved her hand heroically, "It's nothing. Drink up. I know you need to drink."
"Mom, what are you trying to say?" Ye Ci lowered her head and looked at the glass of wine. The scarlet color of the wine swayed under the moonlight. It was like a woman singing and toasting on the Qinhuai River. It was so beautiful that it was mesmerizing to look at. She thought for a moment and finally raised her head. She looked at Zuo Xiaolan and asked coldly.
Zuo Xiaolan paused for a moment. The smile on her face softened. She reached out and ruffled Ye Ci's hair, "Little Ci, if there's anything that's bothering you, can you tell mom?"
Ye Ci opened her mouth. She really wanted to say something, but she did not know where to begin with all the words that were at the tip of her tongue. In the end, she could only sigh. She picked up the glass of wine and took a sip. The sour taste lingered in her mouth.
Zuo Xiaolan was still smiling. She suddenly said, "Little Ci, there was a moment when I felt that you weren't the real Ye Ci."
Ye Ci's heart skipped a beat. She did not dare to raise her head immediately. She lowered her head and let the shock in her eyes fade. She then looked up at Zuo Xiaolan with a smile, "So you're saying that I'm a fake?"
"Tsk." Zuo Xiaolan laughed again. She ignored Ye Ci's words and continued slowly, "It started four years ago. Do you remember that morning when you told me and your dad that you wanted to become a professional gamer? You had a huge argument with us the day before. Your stubbornness and stubbornness made me very sad. But the next day, you seemed to have changed into a different person. Your dad and I couldn't accept it for a long time. We pretended that we didn't know anything, but there was always a knot in our hearts. Can you tell me? "
Ye Ci stared at Zuo Xiaolan in silence. She looked so relaxed, but her hands were clenched so tightly that her knuckles turned white. She had always thought that her plan was flawless. But in the end, there were still flaws. She had neglected the meticulous care that parents had for their children. Should she say something? Should she say something? Ye Ci stared at Zuo Xiaolan for a long time, and finally let out a sigh, "Mom, I have a secret. I can't tell anyone, but I'm Ye Ci. That's all."
Zuo Xiaolan was not surprised by her answer. She did not say anything, and continued to stare at Ye Ci with a gentle gaze. After a long while, she said, "Then don't tell anyone. Don't tell anyone."
Ye Ci remained seated. She did not relax in the slightest. She stared at Zuo Xiaolan in silence. Her back was as straight as a pine tree that did not fear the wind and rain. Zuo Xiaolan's heart softened. She let out a sigh. This was Ye Ci. Whether it was four years ago or now, Ye Ci was always so stubborn. She had always been like this, regardless of whether she was walking in a good or bad direction. Her stubbornness was heart-wrenching. She took another puff of her cigarette, and changed the topic with a smile, "Are you sure? Is this Fleeting Time? "
Ye Ci was stunned once again. She stared at the red wine on the table, and her heart was filled with confusion.
Zuo Xiaolan smiled at Ye Ci's silent expression, and said slowly, "Little Ci, when you're young, you have to go crazy for once. No matter if it's right or wrong, no matter if there's a chance to correct it. Don't plan everything out, and don't do everything step by step. You'll lose a lot of fun if you do that.
