Part19

  It didn't seem like a big deal at first, although Da Shen had never been late before, but being a few minutes late was quite normal. However, as time ticked by, it suddenly became 7:45 and Weiwei started to get anxious, knowing that Naihe wasn't online, she couldn't help but send him a message anyway——

  "Is it there?"

  Nature has no echo.

  Two minutes later, another message was sent. Later on, WeChat messages were not sent anymore, just refreshing the name of Naihe over and over again, while the system kept reminding her - The player is offline, you cannot update his information.

  The foolish old man and his sons also had their names implied.

  Not online.

  Seven fifty.

  A lone figure appeared in front of the entrance NPC, with a team emblem on her head, but there was only one person in the team.

  A crowd of people had gathered around the NPC, as the elimination and final matches were open to spectators. These people were planning to buy tickets to watch the competition, but at this moment, they saw Lu Wei standing alone here, and couldn't help but feel curious, discussing it in front of him.

  Currently [worms gnawing at lettuce]: Why is there only a single reed swaying gently in the breeze, and what's the point of smiling about it?

  Currently [Xuan Yu Zi]: Won't be late, right?

  Currently [963]: How can such an important match be late?

  Currently [not wearing pants is cool]: There are still ten minutes left, what's the rush, top-notch masters always make their move at the last minute.

  7:55

  She quietly replied to Naihe's message: "I'll be waiting for you in front of the entrance NPC, just come over directly."

  The discussion of onlookers continues.

  Currently [Ding Ding Tao]: It's almost time, why hasn't he come yet?

  Currently [Rocket Turtle 1.0]: Won't you come?

  Currently [Idiot Baby]: Oh no, is history repeating itself? Are they getting a divorce too?

  Current [daydreamer]: It doesn't seem like it, why is Lü Wei still standing there after the divorce.

  Currently [thunderous cry]: I say, won't Lu Wei be abandoned again?!

  8 o'clock.

  More and more inquiries from good friends came, slightly opening and closing the switch, finally, lightly clicking the mouse, closing the window of why.

  The crowd gradually dispersed.

  Currently [single for life]: Screw it, screw it, I'm so fed up.

  Currently [☆凝澈☆]: I thought today would be a wonderful PK match, luckily didn't buy tickets.

  Currently [Dog Tail Grass]: Occupying the toilet without taking a dump, not competing won't make you exit early, white-handedly giving the championship to other servers, despise.

  [Jager]: It's not what you said, it's not about Lu Xiaowei and Yixiao Naihe, we may not necessarily be able to enter the finals.

  Current [Romantic]: Wait and see, there are still three minutes of preparation for battle. Entering the field within three minutes is still possible to compete.

  This July: I guess it won't come, sigh, I think the reed is quite pitiful.

  Currently [light rain]: It's quite pitiful, hoho.

  8:02

  Lightly click on the NPC to enter, wanting to enter the school alone, the NPC prompts: You must enter the school with your husband.

  8:03

  The system issued an announcement, announcing that due to Yixiao Naihe and Lü Weiwei's withdrawal, the championship of this couple PK tournament was taken by another couple from a different server.

  8:03

  Weiwei quit the game.

  "I think something is off with Weiwei these past two days."

  In the dormitory at night, Xiaoling looked at Weiwei who was lying on the bed with earphones on and facing the computer, seemingly lost in thought.

  "It's normal, exams are coming up, she turns into a monster every semester before the exams." Er Xi replied while her pen moved swiftly without lifting her head.

  "She didn't even play the game."

  "Now, if she doesn't get a scholarship, she won't have money to play games next semester." Er Xi continued to scribble and talk non-stop, "I'm saying, how do you still have the heart to care about Weiwei? Two days ago, you were all teary-eyed, what's going on with Da Zhong?"

  "It's nothing, he deserved it. Someone else's senior in the fourth year of university had a graduation dinner and he shamelessly tagged along, what did he expect?"

  Xiaoling got annoyed at this and put down her phone, turning to scold her boyfriend instead.

  She was so absorbed in her own world that she didn't know her roommates had already discussed her. At this moment, she was watching a video of "The Legend of Zhen Huan". For the past two days, she hadn't played games and only studied or watched videos repeatedly. Sometimes, even though she didn't want to click on it, she would end up clicking on it while memorizing words. There was always a lump in her throat that couldn't be shaken off, as if only by watching this video could she calm down slightly.

  Or perhaps it was just seeing that figure.

  What's so funny?

  What's so funny?

  Silently reciting this name in her heart, she stared blankly at the screen.

  On the screen, the white-clothed pianist is standing desolately on Luoxia Peak. In the flat but oppressive accompaniment, his back appears lonely and bleak. Looking at him quietly, I inexplicably think of myself standing alone in front of the NPC that day, along with the emotions from that time.

  At that time, I should have been nervous.

  It's not the anger of being stood up, nor the regret of not being able to compete, but a kind of bewildered anxiety, in those last few minutes, she just kept thinking...

  Why hasn't he come yet?

  Will he never come again?

  In online games, there are too many goodbyes without a word, will Naihe also disappear in this way?

  These past few days, she couldn't help but repeatedly watch the video, and in her mind, she thought - could it be that this video would become the only evidence of her encounter with Naihe in their long future together...

  Alas...

  Lying weakly on the bed, helpless with myself.

  What's wrong with her to have such inexplicable, illogical, and absurd associations? Maybe she just hasn't come online yet, why does she think it's so serious? Besides, whether Naihe has disappeared or not can be easily checked by going into the game now, why won't she go online?!

  Turbulent emotions surged, the female thief's story came to an end once again. In the mournful melody, the white-clad lutenist and the red-clad heroine froze in pale determination.

  She rubbed her eyes slightly, very strong, and she actually watched the video with tears in her eyes again. To be honest, this video was very touching when I first saw it, but after watching it many times, I've become numb to it.

  Now it's even...

  Gazing blankly at the screen, that one white-clad pianist's elegant figure, a faint realization slowly and silently yet extremely clearly slipped through my mind...

  Then, with a "bang", he slightly closed his computer, threw away his headphones and stuffed his head under the pillow.

  It's all over, and she has become sentimental.

  It's done...

  She seems to have fallen in love with someone.

  The author has something to say: The champion of the PK tournament is not Weiwei and Naihe, but this is just for meeting purposes.

  We'll meet soon, either in the next chapter or the one after that.

  Clenched fist

  Want to write reality for a long time but stuck in transition, tears streaming down my face.

  Yes, I will update Xiao Bai and Elite soon.
