Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation The meeting was not boring at all. When the meeting was about to end, a few cosplay performances took place. Ye Ci found the cosplayers to be quite pleasing to the eye, but their movements were not as smooth as in the game. Jelly, who had gotten her hands on a pair of binoculars, praised the cosplayers, "Wow wow wow! That human Sorcerer is so handsome! And, and, and, and that Undead Shaman, so enchanting. Wah wah wah, and, and that Elven Thief, I'm drooling, my drool. Were these cosplayers chosen from the Glory Convention? They're just too high quality … "
Ye Ci rolled her eyes as she listened to Jelly's praises. Why was she paying attention to a different target than Jelly?
Logically speaking, the main point of a performance was to look at the cosplayers' appearances and the quality of their costumes. It should not have anything to do with their faces, right? Ye Ci decided to correct her mistake, "I think the costumes are pretty good. Look at that Flying Sky Outfit. It's very similar to the ones in the game."
Jelly stared at Ye Ci as if she was a monster. She then turned her attention back to the cosplayer in the Flying Sky Outfit, "Look at him. He looks so plain. Even with such heavy makeup, you can still tell that he's just an ordinary person. There's no way he'll be able to fit in that outfit."
"I say, isn't it just the clothes and the resemblance? It's not like we're looking at the face."
"The face is the most important thing!" Jelly put down her binoculars and glared at Ye Ci, "Of course! Your Fleeting Time is just a good-looking guy. You've gotten used to looking at him every day. You're only interested in this kind of stuff. It's just like how a person who's used to eating a sumptuous meal will eventually want to eat some simple dishes. That's you. You can't impose your bad habits on people like us who haven't eaten meat yet. Gongzi You, that's immoral. "
The corners of Ye Ci's mouth were already twitching. Why was she so talkative? In the end, she still got herself involved. It was simply infuriating.
The cosplayer's performance soon came to an end. Next up was the award ceremony for the PVP competition. There were rewards for the top ten, especially for the top three.
When Ye Ci heard about the prizes, she felt a sharp pain in her heart. Actually, she could have won a prize too. The more she thought about it, the more frustrated and upset she felt. She didn't even finish listening to the top ten and planned to leave. Anyway, the rest of the meal would be spoiled. There was nothing substantial, and it had nothing to do with her. She didn't want to continue feeling upset here. Hence, she stood up. Seeing her stand up, Fruit Jelly asked, "What's wrong?"
I went out to get some fresh air, "Ye Ci said in a muffled voice.
Jelly glanced at the podium. It was already the 7th place. He did not ask any questions, and simply turned around to let Ye Ci leave. Ye Ci apologized to the players on the way as she slowly made her way out of the hall. Just as Ye Ci was about to leave the hall, a voice suddenly called out to her, "The student in front of door number 4, the meeting isn't over yet. Don't you think it's a little inappropriate for you to leave so early?"
Tsk tsk.
Ye Ci could still remember the voice even if it had turned into ashes. The corners of her mouth twitched again. She could even feel the gazes of countless people on her back. It was as if a hole was being burned in her back. Ye Ci pretended that she did not hear the voice, and continued to make her way out of the hall. A few players nearby called out to her, "Hey hey hey, pretty lady, Fleeting Time is calling for you."
Ye Ci rolled her eyes and quickened her pace. Of course, she knew that it was Fleeting Time who was calling for her. Who else in the world would call out to her in such a manner? And it was done in front of so many people. She was utterly humiliated. She took a deep breath and told herself that she could not hear him.
However, Fleeting Time did not notice Ye Ci's self-deception. The man with peach blossom eyes was standing on the stage with a microphone in his hand. He raised an eyebrow at the woman who was pretending to be deaf and mute, "Gongzi You, why are you leaving so quickly? I'm still on the stage." His lips curled into a wide smile as he threw out an even more insulting remark, "Gongzi You, why are you leaving so quickly? I'm still on the stage."
Gossip about Fleeting Time and Gongzi You was no longer a secret in Fate. It was something that every player in the game knew. Some of the veteran players were even able to recount how the two had fought and killed each other back in the day. It was something that new players would never be able to witness. Hence, when Fleeting Time shouted out those words, those who had not turned their heads around immediately did so. Those who had turned their heads away turned their heads back once again, and those who had not retracted their gazes from Fleeting Time's words had their eyes glowing.
So … So that's Gongzi You.
Of course, after thinking about this matter, there was another sentence that was even more worth pondering. Fleeting Time said, "Why are you leaving so quickly? I'm still on the podium."
What's that? That's a blatant hint! Have the two of them gone from the game to the real world? No, no, no. Judging from the familiarity between the two of them, they are even more familiar with each other in the real world. I can't help but want to find out more.
Ye Ci could no longer lift her legs after hearing Fleeting Time's words. She let out a sigh and turned her head away. She stood at the entrance of the hall and glared at the person on the podium. Ye Ci's glare reminded the host of his duties. He immediately interrupted Fleeting Time's shameless speech, "Fleeting Time, do you have anything to say about winning the PVP Championship?"
Fleeting Time's gaze was fixed on Ye Ci, and he was displeased to be interrupted. And he was that kind of person. Once he was unhappy, even if he didn't put up with it on the surface, he would still make you feel uncomfortable inside. Fleeting Time retracted his gaze and looked at the host with a smile on his face. The host could not help but feel a chill run down his spine. Fleeting Time spoke up before the host could react, "Oh, I see. I do have something to say."
Ye Ci immediately turned and left when she saw that Fleeting Time had something to say. She was afraid that she would be caught by him again if she did not leave now. Ye Ci's face flushed as she recalled what happened the day before. What the hell is going on?
"I don't like to be in public, but I'm here anyway. It's not because I care about the award, nor is it because I'm interested in the event. It's because I have something to say to someone. " Fleeting Time's gaze was fixed on Ye Ci. His voice was as steady as an arrow, and Ye Ci was rooted to the spot.
Ye Ci did not know why she stopped. She could only see the high ceiling and countless LED lights. Yup, there was even a light at the edge of the room that seemed to be on the verge of breaking down. It would most likely be destroyed after a few more blinks. Although she had been trying to stay out of the matter, her ears still wanted to listen. Her eyes seemed to want to desperately turn to look. All the hairs on her body stood up, as if they were all clamoring: What is he going to say? What is he going to say?
Fleeting Time did not say who he was going to say it to, but Ye Ci knew that he was going to say it to her. That was what she felt. But I've already embarrassed myself for the past two days. So what if he's not going to say it to me? Ye Ci took in a deep breath and turned around. She took a few steps forward and stood in the middle of the last row of seats. Her eyes were clear, and it was as if she had nothing to do with the situation.
So it really has nothing to do with me?
Fleeting Time stared at Ye Ci, who was standing furthest away from him, with her arms crossed. Fleeting Time could not see the expression on her face, but he could sense that the relaxed Ye Ci was yelling at him. You're dead if I'm not the person you mentioned just now! I'll make sure that you're dead! I didn't do anything, and I didn't say anything, but Fleeting Time could feel it.
Fleeting Time's smile widened. What should I do? I really want to say that it's not me. I really want to tease her. But just as Fleeting Time was thinking of that, he sensed that Ye Ci's murderous aura had intensified. He could feel it even though they were so far apart. Fleeting Time sighed and rubbed his nose. What should I do? It seems that I won't be able to make a name for myself in the next few decades …
Alright. He stared at the ceiling. My good days are coming to an end. Yep, yep, that's because better days are coming … Probably.
"Aiya, really. I just wanted to say something, but at this moment, I realized that I actually have quite a lot to say." Said Fleeting Time with a smile. He was born with a good appearance, and was someone who rarely showed his face in public. This was the first time many players were seeing him in person. Although they might have fought in the game and had grudges against each other, outside of the game, they had developed a lot of empathy for each other. Not only were the players not angry at Fleeting Time's words, they even wanted to join in the fun. That was why many of the players in the crowd responded with a smile, "We don't mind. Go ahead and tell us what you want." (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.)
