Chapter 89 - NOT A RABBIT BUT A FOX (1/2)

SHEN JI YUN appeared in the main hall of their team's headquarters.  The moment he did, he immediately checked his private message.  Just to check if the rabbit did send him one.  And to his delight, he really did.  For some reason, he couldn't wait to open and read it.

Noctis: [Brother Ji Yun, I have a question regarding the tasks here in Arcadia.  I'd be very thankful if you could answer.  I'll be waiting for your reply.]

He was about to answer when he noticed that the message was sent over a week ago.  He froze.  It was sent so long ago, would the rabbit think that he ignored him?  He was planning to type his answer, when someone suddenly called him from behind.

”Ji Yun!  When did you come back?” said Bai Ze's voice.

Shen Ji Yun glanced back and saw his friend in his lion beastkin game avatar.  ”Last night.”

”Why are you still using your alt account?” Bai Ze asked, walking towards him.  ”Never mind, I want to show you something.”

”Not interested.”

But despite saying that, Bai Ze still pulled him to sit down on one of the chairs on the long table.  He almost forgot that this guy had selective hearing.  Sometimes he would directly ignore what people were saying and just proceed on doing what he wanted to do at that particular moment.  Just like now.

It's because of this trait of his that they became friends.  If he followed what he said during those years ago when he repeatedly told him not to talk to him or go near him, they would definitely not be what they were now.  In some way, he should probably be thankful that Bai Ze was the way he was.

”I actually planned to send this to you yesterday on your WeChat but I didn't know that you're already back,” Bai Ze said, opening his Status Window.  ”How can you be so cold?  You've been away for two weeks and you didn't even bother to tell your best friend that you're back?”

”It's troublesome.”

Besides, Shen Ji Yun knew that he would meet Bai Ze in the game immediately anyway.  So there's really no need to specifically tell him that he's back.

”Yes, I know, it will ruin your high-cold image.”

Shen Ji Yun frowned.  That's not what he meant at all.  But he knew it's no use to argue with this guy.  So he just said, ”Just show me what you wanted to show.”

”Ah, right.  I'll send it to via private message.” After he said that Bai Ze sent a screenshot of the forum post he saw yesterday as well the the video the original poster posted as a reply to one of the comments.

This past month, he resisted going to the forum because all he could read was how their team – Yunyue – became the fallen champions.  Or how they were only lucky to win the first season because there were no other strong team around.  How could he just take all those lying down?  So he often fought with those people in the forum.

Which in return made Su Yuqi scold him with those indifferent eyes of hers.  Yes, that girl wouldn't berate her verbally.  She would only look at him as if he didn't have any brain at all.  Being looked at like he's just some single-celled organism was definitely worse than having someone verbally insult him.

So Bai Ze just stopped checking the forum altogether.  He just visited again yesterday.  Who would have thought he would see something really interesting?

Shen Ji Yun went and read the screenshot about the post.
