Half an hour after leaving the house, the limousine stopped in front of a large apartment that had over 20 floors, and Yu Rou pushed Yuan towards the entrance, where a young lady with two large assets was standing.
“Sister Rou!” Xia Jingyi waved at her with a delightful look on her face upon seeing their figures.
“I’m sorry for coming here on such short notice, Jingyi,” Yu Rou said with an apologetic smile.
“Don’t even mention it. I don’t live that far away from here, anyway.” Xia Jingyi said.
She then looked at Yuan and said, “Hello, Sister Rou’s elder brother. My name is Xia Jingyi, a fellow classmate, it’s really nice to finally meet you.”
“My name’s Yu Tian. Thank you for letting me stay here. When I get the chance, I’ll definitely repay you.”
“We can talk about that later,” Xia Jingyi said, and she continued, “Come, let me show you your room.”
There were two entrances they had to pass before reaching the elevators. The first entrance led to a small lobby where the mailboxes are kept, whilst the 2nd entrance led to the receptionists and elevators.
“Your room will be on the 17th floor.” Xia Jingyi said as she pressed the button inside the elevator.
The elevator door closed, and they began ascending quickly.
A few moments later, they arrived on the 17th floor.
Ding!
The door opened, and Xia Jingyi walked out, followed by Yu Rou and Yuan.
Xia Jingyi stopped in front of the door at the end of the hall and said, “This is 17F, it’s the largest and most luxurious room on this floor.”
“A-Are you sure?” Yuan spoke in a hesitant voice, and he continued, “You can just give me one of the ordinary rooms. I don’t want to feel like I am taking advantage of your kindness, especially since I am living here for free.”
Xia Jingyi chuckled and said, “Sister Rou always mentioned how kind and humble you are. Don’t worry, it’s just one room. It won’t affect us at all.”
“Here’s the keys and a spare one.” Xia Jingyi handed Yu Rou two sets of keys after unlocking the doors.
“Thank you.”
“Let me show you around.” Xia Jingyi opened the door and went inside the apartment room.
“There is a living room, a kitchen, one bathroom with its bathtub and shower separated, three bedrooms, and a balcony. Also, everything in here is new, so it’s not been used before. What do you think?”
After a quick tour around the place, Yu Rou nodded, “If I have to be honest, it’s much larger than necessary.”
And she continued, “The bedroom is good, and the bathroom is also big enough. I don’t have any complaints.”
“That’s great. Then you can move here whenever you feel like it. The keys are already in your hands.”
“Once again, thank you for this, Jingyi,” Yu Rou said to her.
After talking for some time, Xia Jingyi, “If you ever need me, just call my number and I’ll see what I can do.”
“Okay,” Yuan said.
“By the way, Sister Rou, before I leave you two alone, I am currently in the Eastern Continent at someplace called Red Pearl City.”
Yu Rou nodded and said, “I’ll see how far away it is and if I’ll be able to get there.”
“Okay. I’ll go do some quests and cultivate some more in the meantime.”
After Xia Jiayi left the place, Yuan said, “I’ll let Feng Feng know. She should be able to help you meet her since you’re both within the Eastern Continent.”
“Sounds great. Anyways, let’s put you on your new bed so we can get some feedback. If you don’t like it, we can change the mattress.”
Yu Rou proceeded to push the wheelchair into the largest bedroom before carrying Yuan onto the bed.
“Well? What do you think?”
“It’s a bit softer than what I’m used to, but I think I like this better.”
“I’ll ask you again in a few days.” Yu Rou said.
Ring~ Ring~
“It’s Meixiu.” Yu Rou said after seeing the caller on her phone.
“Are you on your way here, Meixiu?”
“Yes. I am on my way to the address you gave me.”
“Okay, call me again when you’re downstairs.”
After hanging up, Yu Rou and Yuan began talking more about their plans until Meixiu called again.
Once Meixiu arrived, Yu Rou went downstairs to meet her before coming back up.
“This will be Brother Tian’s new home.” Yu Rou gave Meixiu a tour around the place.
“This place is very close to school, which will make things far more convenient for the both of us.”
Meixiu nodded, and then she asked, “What else needs to be done?”
“Well, there’s really nothing else to do… Oh, right!” Yu Rou suddenly recalled.
“We need to find a way for Brother Tian to sell his in-game items for real-life currency. It would be risky if Brother Tian traded the treasures personally so it would be for the best if he handed you the treasures instead.”
“In other words, we need you to play Cultivation Online!”
“I-I understand…” Meixiu nodded, feeling like it was a weird thing for her to play video games since she has never really touched them before besides a few occasions when Yu Rou wanted to play with her.
“Hopefully, you are also in the Eastern Continent, or that will make things complicated,” Yuan said.
And he continued, “Though, Feng Feng should still be able to pick you up… I’ll ask her later.”
“Feng Feng…?” Meixiu raised her eyebrows.
“Yes, she’s a phoenix who can fly at extreme speeds. She’ll probably be able to travel to other continents with ease as well. Anyways, we can figure the rest of this out once you create your character.”
“Okay.”
Sometime later, Yu Rou began unpacking Yuan’s luggage whilst Meixiu went to clean the house that was slightly dusty. Once that was done, Meixiu went outside to buy a console so she could play Cultivation Online later.
