Chapter 46 Qiu Yuans Maiden Feelings (1/2)
”Give me an explanation.”
Lin Jie stood beside Galru's corpse in a daze, there was no joy from getting the first clear at all.
That was because Qiu Yuan was just standing in front of him.
Currently, Giant Werewolf Timmy was suppressing its restless appetite, smelling Galru's corpse from time to time and giving a pleading look to its master.
The girl's clean and tender face had a faint pink due to anger. With each breath in and out, her chest was moving up and down. She took a deep breath and pointed at Galru's corpse. ”Fu Sheng, give me an explanation!”
This girl was Qiu Yuan. At the instant when Lin Jie killed Galru, she jumped out of joy and immediately typed a message for Netherblue in excitement. The dungeon's first kill was Netherblue team's, all thanks to Fu Sheng! … Just as she was halfway typing, an unbelievable announcement had suddenly sounded!
Brotherhood? What was Brotherhood?
Beforehand, to show her trust and gratitude, Netherblue had set Fu Sheng as the highest authority of the hierarchy. If she was offline, then Lin Jie would have the rights of using any team leader's authority, including changing the team's name.
Therefore, because of that, Lin Jie could release the announcement with the name ”Brotherhood.”
Qiu Yuan clenched the staff in her hand tightly, her eyes sizing up Lin Jie. The man that seemed to have everything under control was actually flustered at this moment. His hands hung on both sides of his thigh, and his fingers subconsciously moved irregularly.
”Everyone put in a lot for this dungeon, especially big sister, but I also know that our potions were provided by you.” Qiu Yuan gradually calmed down, smiled, beautifully yet without comparison, but with unfamiliar ridicule. ”Fu Sheng, you were the first friend I met in the game. I thought that you were doing so many things for me… our friendship… you did so many things for the team. I thought we could take the first dungeon clear together!”
Qiu Yuan wiped her eyes. ”Fu Sheng, do you know? You are the most hateful liar I have ever seen. Why did you want to do this?”
How important was glory to the team? Perhaps those players that played alone while scratching their feet1 would never understand.
Lin Jie also understood that by doing so, he would inevitably become estranged to some extent with Netherblue Team, but he had his own considerations.
Now, in the face of Qiu Yuan's questioning, Lin Jie could actually not utter a single word. It was not something that could be explained for the time being. He just found out that his EQ was really low!
He was conflicted. Should he tell Qiu Yuan that if he had not done so, his family might be ruined?
”I have my reasons.” Lin Jie helplessly blurted out those few words. He thought for a moment and added, ”I did not lie to you.”
Qiu Yuan could not help but shake her head as if she had lost all her energy. ”I suddenly feel very tired, I believe Sis Netherblue will not come online either! No matter what, give me an explanation that is more reasonable, come up with a more touching story, thank you.”
Just as she finished, Qiu Yuan's figure slowly disappeared.
Lin Jie was stunned for quite a while before he reluctantly let a long sigh.
——
After going offline, Qiu Yuan was still wearing her stay-home tank top, but she did not have any smile on her face. Remembering the scene that happened just now, she somehow felt that it was so ridiculous.
”Ding~ Answer the phone call little dumb pig!”
Qiu Yuan took a look at her phone and offed it silently. She curled up on the sofa, crying softly.
She still remembered that this ringtone was given to her by a boy during high school. Which girl did not fantasize about love when in the ivory tower? She was crazy about a boy before.
Every morning, she would get up early to buy breakfast and quietly stuff it under his desk quietly. Every time after physical education class, she would wear her most beautiful dress to give him mineral water. Every night during self-study, she would use the questions that she had saved up the whole day as topics… After that, the boy had given her a ringtone, but there was nothing more afterward.
After entering the game, Qiu Yuan met Fu Sheng.
The first time, he helped her, nimble and carefree.
The second time, he showed how wise and farsighted he was, gaining control of the whole situation.
After that, he even led his team to start clearing Castle Wood, providing the strategies, potions… He was like a big brother who took care of her meticulously, and she always felt lucky to know such a friend, or better say, big brother.
However, the him now, betrayed her and the team, why? For what reason?
Bang—
The door was suddenly slammed open. Netherblue silently put away the key and stood at the door.
Qiu Yuan quickly wiped dry her tears and asked while startled, ”Big sis, why are you here?”
”To find you for a meal,” said Netherblue calmly. She stared at the tears at the edge of Qiu Yuan's eyes and added, ”I just knew that you girl would be like this, let's go for some drinks.”
——————
”Wowo…” Timmy growled. The Giant Werewolf that was as tall as a person went close to Lin Jie and rubbed him intimately. Its teeth that gleamed with cold light was just nice pointing at Galru's corpse.
”You are not allowed to eat.” Lin Jie frowned. Timmy's creator was Galru, if his corpse disappeared, Timmy would also disappear.
Looking at the empty channel list, Lin Jie suppressed his awful emotions and organized his thoughts, subconsciously playing with his finger.
In his previous life, Lin Jie had also been a member of Brotherhood, and due to members being anonymous, he did not understand much of the situation. As to the process of how Brotherhood recruited people, Lin Jie's memory was blurry.
He only vaguely remembered that at that time, Brotherhood's channel code had suddenly been made public. That had attracted countless players who rushed to apply to enter, had been one of them too.
'Channel code? Should I directly announce it now? Like how the mysterious founder did in his previous life? It could indeed attract a lot of people at a time, but it does not seem to be the result I want.' Lin Jie hurriedly rejected this idea, thinking hard.
”Not right!” Lin Jie suddenly raised his head. ”Not right!”
Yes, something was not right! From the beginning, Lin Jie had been mistaken, that was repeating the path of the predecessors! Roads were created by yourself! Only that way, one would get the results they wanted!
'He had his way, and I have my way! The genius leader could help Brotherhood expand single-handedly, now that I'm already standing on the shoulders of my predecessors, couldn't I expand Brotherhood single-handedly too?'
Looking at the friend list, Lin Jie stared at a glowing name in surprise.
”Old Mai, haven't you slept yet?” Lin Jie laughed, this person was Wine God Elder.
