It was eight in the morning when Li Yi and Chen Yang met up. They took the rapid maglev train to the capital to join the gathering that Little Elf from the Magical Realm had organized.

Pretty Good Mood and Little Elf from the Magical Realm discussed for days yet there was still a surge of newbies joining up to the last minute. If it were not for Little Elf from the Magical Realm deciding to finalize the day today, the planning could have gone on for days or even months!

“I’m nervous, I’m nervous, I’m nervous, Brother Yi, aren’t you?” Chen Yang made a drastic change from his usual wardrobe and wore a black suit. He even wore wide sunglasses over his round face. He really resembled a mafia goon.

Li Yi covered his face with his hand, “I wasn’t until I saw you like this.”

They both boarded the maglev train in laughter.

“Brother Yi, how many do you think are joining in this time?”

Li Yi shook his head. “It’s hard to say.”

“Hehe.” Chen Yang grabbed his chin and suddenly burst into chuckles.

Li Yi hit a nail on Chen Yang’s thoughts, “You don’t really care how many are going. The point is how many girls are attending, right?”

Chen Yang gave Li Yi a big thumbs up, “My parents may have birthed me, but Brother Yi, you know me best.”

Li Yi smiled and took out his mobile phone, calling Jiaojiao.

“Who…” The line connected and Jiaojiao’s lazy voice was heard.

“It’s time to get up and wee wee.”

“Go to hell!” snapped Jiaojiao.

Li Yi chuckled, “The gathering’s today, you coming?”

“I don’t have the time, you guys go ahead…” Jiaojiao hung up.

Li Yi felt helpless. It seemed their relationship was not quite where he wanted yet. He recalled that in his past life when he mentioned that he wanted to have his birthday abroad, she ditched her work and accompanied him to fool around for a whole three days.

The TV display at the front of the maglev train was broadcasting Xu Man, a major celebrity’s latest song. Li Yi inadvertently caught a glimpse at the concert date and was stunned.

Li Yi was in shock. “Don’t tell me…”

“What’s up, Brother Yi?”

“Was the date we took down Fire Devil Dungeon, August, the 7th?”

Chen Yang nodded, “Yeah.”

“That’s not right.” Li Yi frowned as he looked at the concert date of Xu Man’s song debut. It was also showing August, the 7th.

Could Lil Man be Xu Man?

Li Yi was a little muddled. Ever since he found out one of his friends was a major celebrity, Xu Man, he had been noting suspects. His top guess was Platinum Hand’s leader, Lil Man.

But this was odd. Lil Man was with the party to clear the dungeon on August, the 7th. If she was Xu Man, then who was the Xu Man in the concert?

The party was created at three in the afternoon of August, the 7th and Xu Man’s concert also began at the same time.

Li Yi was confused…

Chen Yang took a look at the display and recognized her. “This girl is called Xu Man. She is different from those regular singers.

Li Yi was thunderstruck. “You know her? Tell me, what’s different about her?”

“She is from the army, called something something Wengong Organization. Her father is the leader. Her grandfather is some big shot general or some sort. Anyway, it’s that kind of freaking’ awesome super huge official. She has quite the background.”

“For real?” Chen Yang’s words startled Li Yi. Even with his eight-year memory, he still had no clue on Xu Man’s background.

“It’s true. I have a little brother who was her neighbor. They were all living in some military compound. How freakin’ awesome. Her father drove a tank and her grandfather navigated a fighter plane…”

Chen Yang was not cultured, so for him to explain something at length was no easy task.

“…” Listening to this, Li Yi was lost for words.

Driving a tank and fighter plane did not sound realistic. But a military compound was believable.

Li Yi was lost in his thoughts when Chen Yang pointed out, “Oh yeah, I just noticed. This girl’s lip-syncing. I knew it, this sort of beautiful girl with such a background must not know how to sing.”

Li Yi lifted his head for a good look. Fatty was right. Although Xu Man on the screen had placed the mike near to her mouth, it could be seen her lips were not matching the lyrics.

It was certainly lip-syncing…

Chen Yang snorted, “Wow, organizing a concert with lip-syncing. Only she could pull it off. If it were someone else, the fans would already have raged.”

“Lip-syncing…” Li Yi narrowed his eyes and stared intently at Xu Man on the screen for a fair amount of time. He came to the conclusion that the person on the screen was indeed her.

The maglev train departed the station as Li Yi’s thoughts turned from the celebrity Xu Man to something else.

Whether or not Lil Man was Xu Man, he should know by today, right? Lil Man too signed up to participate in this gathering.

Little Elf from the Magical Realm’s hospitality was first-class. Li Yi and Chen Yang had just stepped off the maglev train when they saw over a hundred people raising signboards and welcoming them.

Dark Wing, Tall and Mighty, Sometimes It Gets Sad, One Big Bun… The signboards were a magnificent sight.

Needless to say, this must be one of Little Elf from the Magical Realm’s arrangements.

“Friends of Director Yang, this way, please.”

Once Li Yi and Chen Yang’s identity was confirmed, a tough-looking young man led them into a luxurious convoy of cars.

As Li Yi was the deputy Guild Master, he received a more VIP treatment compared to regular guild members.

The limousine started its engines and headed towards the venue, the most famous five-star hotel in the capital, Century Aristocracy.

“Is your Director Yang, your boss?”

Chen Yang’s words made the chauffeur choke with laughter.

Li Yi covered his face again. It could not be helped. He had already prepared to be made a fool of on this trip with Chen Yang.

Chen Yang sensed the peculiarity of his question. He thought about it before rephrasing, “Is your company big? Private or state-owned?”

The chauffeur held back his laughter, “We’re not state-owned. We have over 5,000 employees, do you think it’s big?”

“I guess so.” Chen Yang curled his lips. Although he was not familiar with this, Little Drunk Cat has close to ten thousand members who were under his command. Chen Yang compared the two, not taking into account the difference between online and reality.

“Our company is known internationally, with an annual gross of tens of billions. This is all because of Director Yang, ever since…”

“Cough cough…” Hearing the chauffeur prattle on. The youngster bodyguard who was sitting in the front coughed, cutting him off.

“What’s the name of Director Yang?” Asked Li Yi.

The chauffeur stole a glance at the bodyguard but did not dare to reply. The bodyguard was all smiles. “Yang Rong.”

Li Yi exclaimed in acknowledgment and did not continue the conversation.

He was an otaku in his past life, being an expert in anything related to games but he has never known any major companies in reality so this was out of his league.

“So you’re Guild Master Dark Wing in that game that Rong Rong’s playing? I am Rong Rong’s bodyguard, Yan Li.”

The bodyguard, Yan Li extended his arm towards Li Yi.

“Hello.” Li Yi stretched out his hand in a friendly response.

“Rong Rong has always mentioned that you’re really good in the game but I don’t get it. What’s so great about a game?” Yan Li was all smiles but the hand holding Li Yi’s was crushing.

Li Yi’s face immediately darkened a shade.

He was out to make him look bad, of course, he was not going to let it be. As Yan Li mustered his strength, so did he. Their joints were popping as their hands tightly gripped onto one another.

Chen Yang satby and watched earnestly, shaking his head. He turned his head to the vehicle’s windows to admire the sights.

In the beginning, Yan Li’s face was all smiles. It was not long before the smile on his face faded and his muscles were twitching. Sweat drenched his forehead.

Li Yi was quite the opposite. He was smirking as if he felt no pain, but he was still going at it.

Yan Li took a deep breath and suppressed his urge to scream out loud. He said to Li Yi, “Guild Master Dark Wing, could you… loosen your grip?”

“Oh.” Li Yi ruthlessly tightened his grip. Watching as Yan Li grimaced in pain, he was filled with glee and finally unlatched his hand.

Even with Li Yi on the game daily, he did not miss out on training. The force of his grip was immense to begin with, what more if he went all out? If another party dared to play dirty, he would definitely return the favor with full force. Chen Yang once boasted about the strength of his grip but after playing once with Li Yi, he was left to the point of wailing to his mum and dad about the crushing grip of Li Yi. He dared not even play with him anymore.

“Guild Master Dark Wing once trained?” Yan Li rubbed his hand and forced a smile.

“I’m preoccupied with playing games every day, no time for that.” Witnessing the character of the person before him, Li Yi did not wish to be acquainted with him any further.

“Diligence in wanking, if you wank, you’ll be strong too,” Chen Yang cut in.

“Haha, no wonder then. What strength!” Yan Li gave a hollow laugh.

Then Yan Li’s mobile phone rang. He answered it and his face instantly lit up. “Director Yang, is there anything I can help you with?”

“Oh oh, they’re on the way. We’ll reach the place in around ten minutes.”

From the way the conversation went, Li Yi could tell who called.

“Oh, right, you still don’t know why Rong Rong is treating them, right?” After the call with Yang Rong, Yan Li bubbled over with excitement.

“Isn’t it to celebrate the clearance of a dungeon?” Chen Yang was curious.

Yan Li smiled. “Mainly it’s because of that but not entirely.”

Li Yi asked, “What then?”

“Today’s the birthday of Director Yang’s daughter,” the chauffeur suddenly butted in.

“Old Wang, focus on your driving!” Yan Li glared at the chauffeur.

“Daughter’s birthday?” Li Yi was stunned. His gaze wandered off out the vehicle. After a while, he shouted, “Stop the car!”

“What’s going on?” The chauffeur stopped the car.

Li Yi took large strides down the car and bought two cashmere toys by the streets. He tossed one to Chen Yang once he got back into the car.

“What’s this?”

“A gift for a little girl.”

Chen Yang held the cashmere toy up for a look before tossing it back, “You can give it, I’m not gonna do it.”

“How silly.” Li Yi glanced at Fatty in contempt. He held both cashmere toys in an embrace and closed his eyes to calm down.

The convoy steadily advanced forward and after five minutes, they arrived at their destination, the five-star hotel, Century Aristocracy.

Little Elf from the Magical Realm was dressed in a dull blue professional attire, and she guided a cute little girl dressed like a little princess to stand at the entrance, awaiting their arrival.

“Guild Master’s here!” It was unknown who yelled that out and the guild members who had already arrived immediately swamped out, following Little Elf from the Magical Realm from behind, welcoming him.

Little Elf from the Magical Realm’s appearance was similar to in the game. An absolutely rare beauty.

“Momo, come here for a hug,” Yan Li beamed with joy as he walked toward the little girl. He never expected this little girl to turn her face away. She did not allow him to even touch her.

“Momo, Momo…” Yan Li called out a few times but the little girl ignored him. He awkwardly smiled before he retreated in dejection.

“Who would have thought our Guild Master is such a hottie.” Little Elf from the Magical Realm’s words stirred a roar of laughter. The atmosphere became considerably relaxed.

“I long knew that Director Yang was a beauty. I was right.”

Li Yi laughed out loud, taking out the two cashmere toys to the little girl. He offered them to her, “Your name’s Momo, right? This is for you, happy birthday.”

Yan Li who was standing beside coldly snorted, grumbling within, ‘Momo’s cheapest toy is at least tens of thousand bucks, how can she take fancy to this street trash?’

What Yan Li did not expect, happened. Momo saw the cashmere toy and her eyes beamed with delight. She held each with one arm and gave him a kiss, “Thank you, uncle.”

“Director Yang, today’s your daughter’s birthday. Why didn’t you say so? I had to get them at the last moment. I really didn’t have time to prepare.”

“It doesn’t matter whether I mentioned it or not on such small matter. Look, my daughter’s loving them,” Little Elf from the Magical Realm looked at Momo in pleasant surprise. It has been a long time since she saw Lil Momo this happy from receiving a toy.

Little Elf from the Magical Realm pinched her little nose lovingly. “Tell mummy, what’s this toy called? I’ll buy you a whole truck full of them the next time.”

“It’s calledGrass Mud Horse1.”

Lil Momo’s sweet little voice brought about a total silence in the room.
