Although she had promised Bluegreen-Clad to trust him, Zheng Xiaoguang was worried. As she was working at this moment, she could not log onto the game. She felt helpless and tried her best to finish her work earlier. Only in this way could she leave the company earlier today. Baffled by the duel, she found it hard to focus on her work.

She sighed inwardly, “Sigh, why does he choose to fight a duel with Bluegreen-Clad now?” She kept wiggling on her seat and felt restless.

Finally, about 20 minutes later, her cellphone rang, and the call was from Bluegreen-Clad.

She gently pressed the answer button and then heard the soft voice of Bluegreen-Clad. “I won the duel. You can feel at ease and focus on your work now.”

“Really?” She asked hesitatingly, “Did you cheat or something?”

As Tong Xiangyang was a well-equipped level-110 magician, she found it hard to believe that Bluegreen-Clad’s skills could make up for his disadvantages.

“Silly girl, do you really think that there are so many chances to cheat?” Bluegreen-Clad could not help but chuckle. “Besides, this is a duel between two men. How can I cheat?”

“Well, I judged your mind with my own vile one.” With this in mind, Zheng Xiaoguang embarrassedly remained silent for 3 seconds before asking, “Then how did you do that?”

“Well…” He chuckled and said, “I upgraded to level 105 and used a level-105 Purple Outfit during the PK.”

“It’s still not easy, is it?” Zheng Xiaoguang asked in surprise.

Although Bluegreen-Clad made light of what he had achieved, she knew how hard it was for a player equipped with only a level-105 Purple Outfit to compete with a player equipped with level-110, full star rank equipment when they were in the same occupation (where he lacked comparative advantage). By winning such a battle, the god-like Bluegreen-Clad probably refreshed PK records again.

“It’s not easy—” Bluegreen-Clad deliberately drawled. “But I promised you that I wouldn’t lose. I never break my promise.”

“Mm-hmm.” She smiled. Bluegreen-Clad had never let her down by far.

When she gleefully hung up the phone, she saw a text message from Tong Xiangyang: I admit defeat. I won’t log onto Shiny Sky anymore.

The moment she saw this somewhat sad text message, she felt that her good friend Cool Names Taken by Dogs disappeared forever.

In fact, she was very pleased to meet Dogs in real life and find out that both of them live in R City. Every time she saw Dogs, she could not help but think back to her first days in Shiny Sky.

She missed the feeling of fighting and getting repeatedly abused by the Bosses together with her friends in their pursuit of a piece of good equipment. She missed Mulberry on the Grave and his amazing hidden weapon skills. She also missed the feeling of complaining about the sudden departure of Dogs together with Soft-heartedness is a Disease. After all, they had fought side by side in the past. They really treated one another as friends.

Nevertheless, they treated one another just as friends.

“I sincerely hope that you can find the right girl.” This was the last message she sent to Tong Xiangyang.

Upon seeing the message on his cellphone, Tong Xiangyang could not help laughing at himself.

The duel between Bluegreen-Clad and he could hardly be considered a cracking game. In the first minute of the fight, he had consumed two-thirds of Bluegreen-Clad’s blood just because the god-like player deliberately let him attack to observe his habits. After that, he had not been able to hurt him anymore.

For the rest of the time, Bluegreen-Clad always interrupted him in the last few seconds when he was warming up and transformed him into a fox to stop him from moving before using a high damage skill on him.

He could not cause Bluegreen-Clad any harm, but every attack launched by Bluegreen-Clad harmed him precisely. As such, he had almost no blood left after three minutes. The whole situation reversed dramatically.

In the end, to everyone’s surprise, he lost this duel.

Upon seeing the game message announcing his defeat, Tong Xiangyang laughed helplessly. When he was about to log off, he received a Private Chat from Bluegreen-Clad.

[Private Chat] Bluegreen-Clad: I never ask you to quit the game if you lose. It’s up to you to decide whether to stay.

Tong Xiangyang disdained his offer. He thought, “What? Does he want to show his good manners at this point? That’s unnecessary.”

[Private Chat] Landscape Painter: No matter what, I lose the duel. I quit.

He knew that he could not bear to see Zheng Xiaoguang and Bluegreen-Clad “showing their love” in Shiny Sky every day, but he still seemed to be somewhat afraid that he would regret it. To avoid such hesitation, he immediately sent Zheng Xiaoguang a text message: I admit defeat. I won’t log onto Shiny Sky anymore.

When he received her message, he felt reluctant and somehow sent her another text message: Xiaoguang, if he doesn’t treat you well in the future, you can come back to find me.

To his surprise, Zheng Xiaoguang replied: Thank you, Dogs, but I believe that Bluegreen-Clad and I will be happy.

“Dogs…” He thought of what Flowing Light had said to him when they first met. “Hey, Dogs. What do you think about my name?”

Back then, he had guessed her intention but deliberately pretended to hesitate for a while before replying, “This name is just so-so.”

“Hehe…” he smiled bleakly.

Somehow, he thought of a famous line from a poem—”If time could stop the moment we met, I would not have to look sadly at this painted fan in the autumn wind.”

At 2:00 pm, Zheng Xiaoguang finally finished her work and was allowed by her supervisor to leave the company for home.

To her disappointment, when she reached Xiangquan Hotel by taxi, she saw Bluegreen-Clad packing his belongings.

“I’m sorry, Xiaoguang. I have to go back to my company to take care of something urgent.” Bluegreen-Clad explained.

“Oh, I see~” Zheng Xiaoguang bit her lip and continued, “Are you leaving today?”

Bluegreen-Clad nodded. “It’s urgent. I have to go back to A City tonight.”

As it was about his business, Zheng Xiaoguang felt that it was not right to persuade him to stay. She silently helped him to pack his things, such as his laptop, power adapters, and USB cables…

Bluegreen-Clad received his things from Zheng Xiaoguang’s hands and put them into his small suitcase. After that, he looked around to check whether there was something left behind.

“We finished packing so fast.” Zheng Xiaoguang did not know what to say. Although she knew that having a long-distance relationship meant that they did not have much time to stay together, she still felt reluctant to let him leave.

Bluegreen-Clad lowered his head to kiss her on the cheek. “I’m sorry, Xiaoguang. I let you down this time.”

She shook her head and said, “That’s alright. I know that you’re busy this week.”

Because of his work, Bluegreen-Clad had not planned to visit Zheng Xiaoguang this weekend before.

Upon noticing that Zheng Xiaoguang felt sad but did not want to cause him any discomfort, he could not help but smile. “The next week is the National Day holiday. I’ll come to visit you, okay?”

Upon hearing that, she looked delighted and said excitedly, “Okay! When you come next week, I’ll take you to the most famous scenic spot in R City and then to the most popular VR Game center in our city.”

“Uhm, we’ll have plenty of time the next week.” Bluegreen-Clad touched her head and added, “When I come next week, can you introduce me as your boyfriend to your friends?”

Zheng Xiaoguang put her arms around Bluegreen-Clad’s waist and said, “Of course.”

Now that she was determined to maintain this relationship with him, she was not afraid of any difficulty.
