âElvy, itâs time to leave.â
Dunleavy knocked on the bedroom door forcefully. After waiting for a while, he still did not receive any response from Elvy, so he pushed the door open rudely.
âHey, Elvy, donât think about not leaving. Theyâre all waiting downstairsâŚâ
Dunleavy suddenly paused.
He glanced at Elvy, who was lying on the bed with her personal terminal clearly connected to the Martial Soul game. He shook his head and smiled bitterly.
âWhy is she so obsessed now? She doesnât even let go of such a short period of time.â
At this moment, he could not continue to wait patiently like usual. He reached out and pressed the button, opening the external awakening button on the data access terminal.
A moment later, Elvy opened her eyes and looked at Dunleavy with dissatisfaction.
âWhy are you in such a hurry to call me out? Perhaps that guy will respond in a while.â
Dunleavy helplessly pointed outside and sighed, âThereâs no time. The shuttle is already waiting outside. If we donât leave now, weâll miss the last spacecraft today. Do you plan to let Father escort you onto the ship after he returns?â
Elvy snorted softly and climbed down reluctantly.
âIn any case, thereâs still half a year until the official start of school. Why donât you wait until the start of school before letting me go?â
âWho asked Mother to worry about you and be unwilling to let you live in Star Cloud Academy alone? No matter what, Auntâs house is much more comfortable than the female dormitory in Star Cloud Academy, right? If you go half a year in advance, you can adapt to life on Earth in advance.â
Elvy glanced at Dunleavy.
âDo you really think so?â
âThisâŚâ Dunleavy was stunned for a moment before revealing a helpless smile, âThis is also what Father wants. Aunt is his only sister after all. Itâs good to be closer to her.â
Dunleavyâs expression suddenly became serious.
âElvy, donât act like youâre at home when you go to Auntâs house. Donât be so stubborn. Do you understand?â
âYouâre the stubborn one! Hmph!â
With that, Elvy jumped up with a tense expression. She grabbed the small bag by the bed and strode out the door.
Dunleavy hurriedly chased after him.
After taking two steps, he rolled his eyes and asked, âThat guy still didnât answer you?â
Elvyâs originally tense face immediately relaxed, her worried expression mixed with slight anger.
âThatâs right⌠Itâs been so long, but he still hasnât given me any response. I even specially asked someone to investigate that he hasnât played the game at all in the past month. This guy⌠canât be that petty? Just because I rejected his friend request once, he wonât ignore me anymore, right?â
Looking at Elvyâs worried and puzzled face from the side, Dunleavy laughed in his mind.
When had his sister, who had been doted on since she was young, become so worried about another person?
Speaking of which⌠Elvy was also 14 years old today. Could she have fallen in love so early?
âImpossible!â Dunleavy immediately rejected this guess.
Up until now, not to mention seeing that guy with her own eyes, she had not even seen him in the game.
All their contact had only been through a few messages attached to the friend request. How could they feel any love for that guy?
The reason why she cared so much about Virgin 001 was only an obsession.
âI donât think so?â Dunleavy comforted, âI think heâs just been busy recently and canât leave. Look, he didnât even play the game.â âHmm⌠thatâs possible. But when can he go online? If I go to my auntâs place, I probably wonât be able to play the game for a long time. If he goes online, wonât I miss him?â Elvy still had a worried expression, âUnfortunately, I canât let someone else go on stage for me in Martial Soul. Otherwise, Iâll let you guard it every day.â
âFortunately, I canât.â Dunleavy was secretly relieved.
He did not want to foolishly log into Martial Soul every day and wait for Virgin 001.
âHmph. No matter what, this guy is still a boy, right? I rejected him once, and he really stopped applying. To think that I even put down my reservations and added him again. In the end, he actually doesnât even play the game anymore. If I encounter him online next time, see if I donâtâŚâ
Dunleavy watched from the side and could not help but shake his head. Elvy spoke fiercely, but her eyes were shining and her face was flushed. She looked very excited.
How could the current her still have the anger she had when she was defeated by Virgin 001 and could not achieve her 30 consecutive wins?
Perhaps deep in her heart, she had long treated Virgin 001 as the first person she could communicate with in Martial Soul.
Dong Fang jumped down from the floating bus and landed on the ground with a muffled bang.
He looked up and glanced at the row of words on the top of the building, âWest Cloud City Hospitalâ. He narrowed his eyes under the reflection of the light.
Who would be willing to come to this inauspicious place if it was possible?
He lowered his head and looked around. He discovered that there was still a crowd around the hospital entrance as usual. However, it was different from the last time he came. He could no longer see any media reporters waiting here.
As compared to the grand scene a month ago where the entrance was filled with reporters from the various major media outlets of the federation and almost filled up the entire place, it was even worse.
âHeh, these guys are sharks that came after smelling the blood. Now that Chu Nan no longer has the smell of blood, they naturally dispersed.â
Dong Fang smiled mockingly and walked into the hospital.
He had just taken two steps when he suddenly saw a familiar figure walk into the hospital from the corner of his eye.
Dong Fang looked over in surprise and stared at the figure who quickly walked in the same direction as him. As he got closer, he finally confirmed that this slender figure wearing a hat and large sunglasses was indeed the person he had guessed. He thought for a moment and went forward in confusion. He waved his hand.
âHeh, Miss Yang Xirui, why are you here?â
That person seemed to be shocked. He looked up at Dong Fang and revealed a trace of doubt before realizing.
âYouâre Dong Fang? Chu Nanâs classmate?â Dong Fang chuckled, âMiss Yang Xirui is indeed a famous reporter in the federation. Your memory is really good. Yes, Iâm Dong Fang. Not only am I Chu Nanâs classmate, but Iâm also his roommate and can be considered his best friend. Heh, Miss Yang Xirui, look at you today. Could it be that you want to do a secret interview?â
Seeing that she had already been recognized, Yang Xirui did not hide anymore. She took off her large sunglasses and revealed her still exquisite face.
âNo, I just⌠purely wanted to visit him.â
âOh?â Dong Fang looked at her in surprise.
Why did this beautiful reporter who often appeared in the Federationâs Information Martial Arts World Channel visit Chu Nan?
