Qin Shaoyou was too lazy to waste words with them, so he gave each of them three million spirit stones and sent them away.

The group received the item, seemed to understand something, and quickly disappeared.

As soon as they left, Qin Shaoyou quickly typed in the nearby channel.

[New Year's Trip: Don't go yet!]

[Jiang Tian: Is there anything else?]

Qin Shaoyou's heart skipped a beat when he saw that she was still willing to talk to him.

[New Year's Trip: I put up the long-term bounty because I was too angry at the time. I just removed it, and no one will be lying in wait for you anymore.]

[Jiang Tian: Then I must thank Young Master Qin for sparing my life.]

Qin Shaoyou felt a pang of indescribable sadness. He hesitated for a moment and then typed another message.

[New Year's Trip: A few days ago I found a song called "Only Thoughts" on a music platform. Is that song sung by you?]

[Yi Heng: Sister, let's go. We've already picked all the herbs over there.]

Jiang Tian: Okay.

Qin Shaoyou was anxiously waiting for an answer when he noticed that there was another person in the nearby channel.

The title Yi Heng held made the veins on his forehead throb.

Each player can add a title to themselves, and the title will be displayed along with their ID.

Yi Heng's title is—

Jiang Tian's Little Romance

Enraged, Qin Shaoyou launched a forced PK attack on Yi Heng before Yi Heng could react.

Yi Heng disliked Qin Shaoyou from the start; dating such a despicable person would only ruin one's luck.

He has been practicing his skills diligently recently and has leveled up quite a bit, but compared to a veteran player like Qin Shaoyou, there is still a world of difference.

However, Yi Heng has bought a lot of equipment for himself these days so that he can help Jiang Tian in the wild.

All of this equipment came in handy today.

Qin Shaoyou didn't expect that Yi Heng, a low-level player, would be so troublesome.

Yi Heng's skill level is just not high enough, it's not that his operation or awareness is lacking.

Qin Shaoyou already hated him intensely and wanted to kill him. Seeing how cunning Yi Heng was, he disregarded the high cost of his equipment and decided to blow him up.

Yi Heng struggled for a few minutes before his health bar was depleted.

Even after he reached the respawn point, Qin Shaoyou's anger had not subsided.

[Jiang Tian: Qin Shaoyou, what exactly do you want to do?]

Just as he was about to continue his pursuit of Yi Heng, he discovered that Jiang Tian was questioning him in a nearby chat channel.

She even questioned him because of a gigolo.

[New Year's Trip: What do you think? You've already seen it; I'm going to kill him.]

[Jiang Tian: Just because he's my destined love?]

[A New Year's trip: I just can't stand him.]

Qin Shaoyou did not admit it.

[Jiang Tian: I won't bring up our past. That history hurt me. You were the one who ended our relationship. Why do you keep bothering me and even hurting my future partner? You don't like him, isn't it because of me? If you think I'm really an eyesore, then just kill me every time you see me. Why do you have to do sit-ups, one minute you want to hunt me down, and the next minute you withdraw the kill order?]

Finally, Jiang Tian spoke up: "Qin Shaoyou, we have nothing to do with each other anymore. The person I like now is Yi Heng. If you think I lied to you and hate me, then go ahead and hunt me down. Don't bully Yi Heng. He's just a small-time player. If a big shot like you does something to him, how can he possibly fight back?"

Jiang Tian's tone was not violent; rather, it was quite calm and composed.

But every word she uttered pierced Qin Shaoyou's heart.

"...You've fallen for him? Jiang Tian, ​​is your affection so cheap? I pursued you for a year before you agreed to be with me, but with him, it's only been half a year and you two are already inseparable?"

His tone was filled with intense anger!

Jiang Tian was not angered by him: "Liking someone depends on timing, not time. When I liked you, I treated you with all my heart, and I don't think I ever wronged you. Now that I like him, of course I have to protect him."

"You, you were so devoted, so why did you hide it from me? Why didn't you tell me your real identity? I—"

As Qin Shaoyou spoke, he became somewhat choked up.

“I told you that online dating is just online dating, and I will not take it into real life. You also promised me that you would not come to me. Our love only exists online. Later, you went back on your word and even made me suffer long-term cyberbullying and real-life threats, which almost drove me to the brink of depression. I don’t blame you, so why do you keep bringing up these past events and making me feel disgusted?”

Hearing her say that she was on the verge of depression, Qin Shaoyou felt a tightness in his chest.

"I--"

“These old stories are all in the past, and I don’t want to hear you repeat them over and over again. The only reason I’m still talking to you is for my sake. I hope you can put all your energy away from him on me from now on. I’m willing to fight you and bear your hatred for him. In short, please don’t hurt him even a little bit more.”

Anyone could hear how much she cared about Yi Heng.

Qin Shaoyou recalled the distant past, when Jiang Tian had protected him in the same way.

"...If you want me to stop targeting him, I only have one request."

"you say."

“Go back to Jingming Xuanhe. I will make it clear to everyone that the problem lies with me, not you. As long as you go back, I will never target that person again.”

Qin Shaoyou suddenly calmed down and began to negotiate with her seriously.

"I suffered such humiliation in your gang, and you still want me to go back? Qin Shaoyou, you really know how to torture people."

Qin Shaoyou took a deep breath: "I will make it clear to everyone that the reason I'm sending you back is to guide the gang's tactics. We will give you a title, and you don't need to contribute to the gang."

"Why do you want me to go back? Give me a reason."

Qin Shaoyou hesitated; he just wanted to look at her, what reason could he possibly have?

After a long silence, he finally came up with an excuse: "Since you and I have both returned to the game, and we've severed our romantic ties, and I've even lifted the long-term kill order, why not turn hostility into friendship? Everyone wants to have a good time in this game, and with grudges between us, no one can play well. If you're in the same guild as me, people will think we've reconciled, and that way, neither of us will face so many strange looks."

That's a pretty good excuse.

Jiang Tian remained silent for a moment, but instead of refusing outright, she said, "I'd like to include my romantic partner in the list, is that alright?"

Qin Shaoyou's expression twisted in an instant.

In the end, he still typed two words.

[A trip during the New Year: Sure.]

The news that Jiang Tian and Yi Heng had rejoined Jingming Xuanhe caused a great stir in the world channel.
