Chapter 233: Game (1/2)
Alex logged out of the game and realized that it hadn't actually been that long since he had gone in, only 8 am. It had just felt like it had been a while due to the different people he had met.
'Whatever, I will just eat something that will keep me full until late afternoon today' he thought. So, he went to the kitchen to get something to eat.
”Oh, hey sister. Why are you here so early? Are you cooking lunch?” he asked.
”No, I got your note,” she said as she showed the note and said, ”it's my day off too, so I decided to take a break and cook the lunch later on,” she said.
”Oh, ok.”
”Oh yeah, did you ask about tomorrow?” Hannah asked.
”Tomorrow?” Alex was a little confused.
”The party? Will you have free time to party tomorrow?” Hannah asked.
”Oh, that. Uhh… so many things happened that I forgot to ask. Although we left our sect and are going to the capital city which we will reach tomorrow morning, I think. So I don't know if I will even have time for the shopping itself, let alone the party,” Alex said.
”What? Try to make some time,” Hannah said.
Alex got some food to eat and fill his stomach for the rest of the day. After that, he went back into the game. He logged into the same room on the ship. It was getting a bit boring to stay in the room so he walked out of the room to go back to the deck with his master.
'I need to ask her about tomorrow,' he thought.
He opened the door of the room and saw Fan Ruogang dragging the nearly crying Wan Li outside. 'What the… ' he didn't even finish talking when Fan Ruogang saw him.
”Oh hey Mingming, is your headache gone?” he asked.
”Uh, yeah. It's gone,” he said reluctantly.
”Oh, then you come too, we are going to play,” she said and started dragging Alex with her other hand. She found a relatively spacious place on the deck and sat down.
She made both Wan Li and Alex sit a little further apart.
”Ok so…” Fan Ruogang was about to speak when Zhou Mei arrived from the side. ”Meimei, come sit and play with us,” she said.
Zhou Mei looked towards Alex and asked, ”What is he doing here?” she asked.
”Mingming? Of course, he is here to play. I brought him here,” Fan Ruogang said.
”No, I mean he barely passed the core disciple a few days ago, you think he can play your game?” Zhou Mei asked. Alex was a bit surprised.
'Just what sort of game is this?' he wondered.
”He is the sect leader's disciple though, so he should be fit to play this right?” Fan Ruogang asked.
”I don't know. Try to play some and you will know,” Zhou Mei said.
”Alright, you sit too,” Fan Ruogang said.
Zhou Mei nodded and sat down between Wan Li and Fan Ruogang, opposite Alex, and kept staring daggers at him. Alex was getting used to that.
”So, what is this game? How do we play it?” Alex asked.
”Oh, it's quite simple. So, we take out a pill from our storage and hold it in our closed palm. Then the other people will go around guessing the ingredients, and the one holding the pill will tell if they are correct or not.”
