Chapter 49
Deprived of his driver's rights, Yang Mingzhou reluctantly huddled in the back seat. He rolled his eyes at Mingxu's back from time to time and was then warned, "Yang Mingzhou."
Yang Mingzhou glared at him one last time and began to pull Yan Qing to continue talking about various things that happened during Mingxu’s university days.
From sleeping at night to attending classes during the day, from being confessed to to having the person who rejected him squatting in the classroom every day during his class, and so on, Yang Mingzhou finally felt tired. "I need to rest for a while. There are too many things to talk about. I can't finish talking about them in three days and three nights."
After saying that, he glanced at Ming Xu. Seeing that he didn't say anything, he became unscrupulous: "I thought of one."
Yan Qing listened quietly, giving him some emotional value from time to time.
I didn't expect that someone like Ming Xu would have so many embarrassing things.
Ming Xu caught Yan Qing's inquiring gaze from the corner of his eye and said helplessly, "Don't listen to his nonsense."
He was actually very embarrassed, but many things that happened after Yan Qing left were most appropriately told from the perspective of an observer.
Yan Qing: “Those years.”
He was interrupted mid-sentence, "I never thought of anything else."
"I haven't said anything yet."
Yang Mingzhou listened to the two people's encrypted conversation and sneered, "I can testify that he was really crazy during those years. He even went abroad for a while. I think it was Spain!"
Looking at Yang Mingzhou's determined gaze, Yan Qing was a little bit unconvinced, but Yang Mingzhou thought she was doubting the truthfulness of his words: "It's Spain. If I remember correctly, the Spanish chef of the restaurant in North City seemed to have come here not long after he came back."
"Yang Mingzhou, you talk too much."
"You're too embarrassed to say it yourself, and you won't let me say it."
As he was speaking, Yan Qing's cell phone rang. It was Zhou Mingshu calling.
"Xixi, are you here yet?"
Yan Qing glanced at the navigation: "There are still 200 kilometers."
The other side seemed a little unhappy: "It's still so long, then let's talk about it when you get here."
After hanging up the phone, Yan Qing no longer had the mood to chat. She remembered the post and went to the forum to take a look.
The post has now been listed as a hot topic, and there are more than half as many replies as I saw this morning.
Seeing Yan Qing silent, Yang Mingzhou felt a little bored and started to check his phone. Suddenly, he saw an explosive piece of news and quickly called Yan Qing to come and see.
Looking at the pictures on the phone, Yan Qing frowned. Yang Mingzhou repeated to Ming Xu, "This is that victim again. There's even a group photo. Fan Zhuoyi does have a nice figure, though. Hahahaha."
The two people in the front row were speechless. Ming Xu said coldly, "Yang Mingzhou."
The person who was warned chuckled and began to scroll down to see what else there was.
Yan Qing didn't know whether Zhou Mingshu knew about it. Perhaps the phone call just now was about this.
[Yan Qing]: Have you seen the post?
[Zhou Mingshu]: Um/cry-cry kitten.
[Zhou Mingshu]: It turns out that he cheated on me a long time ago. If I had agreed to meet him when I was in college, none of this would have happened now.
While chatting with Zhou Mingshu, Yang Mingzhou started to get surprised again: "The new post actually mentioned something about you two."
Yan Qing took the phone and saw the game names of himself and Ming Xu on the chat screenshot.
Someone replied below.
[631st floor: Wow, I still get to hear about Coal Ball Brother and hot pot in my lifetime.]
[632nd floor: Who are these two people? I don't know them. Please tell me about the scumbag.]
[633rd floor [Dudu Shrimp] replied to 632nd floor: Coal Ball was the deputy leader of my former gang. He was incredibly wealthy, but not interested in women. He later fell for a newbie named Hotpot, but Hotpot left without saying goodbye when Coal Ball was most in love with her.]
[634th floor reply to 633th floor: I know, I know. My master used to play games with Coal Ball Brother. At that time, he often brought a girl with him. Later, I heard that the girl stopped playing games, and then Coal Ball Brother also left. Sigh, it's all tears.]
This incident completely changed the tone of the post, and people began to discuss the love-hate relationship between Brother Coal Ball and Mysterious Hot Pot.
Yan Qing looked at the increasingly unrealistic replies and couldn't help but complain, "What these people say is even more ridiculous than fiction."
Ming Xu: "Well, there is no hatred."
Yang Mingzhou was silently shown off by the two: "It's only love, right?"
[723rd floor reply to 633 [嘟嘟虾] floor: OP, are the screenshots referring to Coal Ball Brother's current situation or past events? This is very urgent.]
[724th floor [Duduxia] replied to 723th floor: I'm not sure about this. I haven't played games for a long time. Wait a minute, I'll check the guild group. It's been very lively lately.]
After posting this, this [Dudu Shrimp] disappeared, leaving behind a bunch of hungry onlookers.
Yan Qing asked, "Who is this [Dudu Shrimp]? How does he know so much?"
Yang Mingzhou shook his head and glanced at Mingxu: "Do you know?"
Ming Xu glanced at the rearview mirror with a half-smile.
"You definitely don't know." Yang Mingzhou was very perceptive. "I'll go find out."
Yan Qing continued to read the posts discussing her own gossip, and found it quite interesting: "The posts have almost completely written about our entire lives."
"He should be the one driving."
Yang Mingzhou, who was helping the two men search for someone, had his eyes glued to his phone, but his ears were still very sensitive. He immediately said arrogantly, "Mingxu, you were the one who threw me down just now. Now I won't be your driver even if you beg me."
When they arrived at the service area, Yang Mingzhou stayed in the car and refused to get out.
"I'm a little hungry." Yan Qing only ate some fruit at noon, and all the energy-replenishing food she brought with her was taken away by Yang Mingzhou in the car.
Hearing this, Yang Mingzhou became interested and jumped out of the car: "Let's go, the instant noodles in the service area are the best."
After saying that, he walked forward.
Yan Qing and Ming Xu looked at each other and followed reluctantly.
"This service area is quite large." As he spoke, Yang Mingzhou's eyes lit up and he pointed at the stall at the door. "Want some zongzi? This brand of meat zongzi is delicious." After saying that, he suddenly realized that Yan Qing was from the north and tentatively said, "He should have sweet zongzi too."
"Boss, give me three rice dumplings." Yan Qing glanced at Yang Mingzhou, "I'll buy one for you too."
Yang Mingzhou leaned over to Mingxu and whispered, "I thought people in the north didn't eat rice dumplings?"
“Stereotype.”
After being criticized by Ming Xu, Yang Mingzhou began to recommend everything he saw to Yan Qing.
Ming Xu glanced at the time and reminded: "Let's go."
Looking at the bag of snacks, Yang Mingzhou planned to share them with Yan Qing after getting in the car. He didn't consider Ming Xu at all because he didn't eat snacks at all.
"You don't want to eat either?" He was a little surprised by Yan Qing's rejection. He glanced at Ming Xu and whispered to him, "Is he not letting you eat?"
Before he could finish his words, he saw Ming Xu sitting in the back seat. He looked up at Yang Mingzhou, who looked confused, and indicated the driver's seat.
Yang Mingzhou was almost furious because he couldn't eat a bag of snacks.
The hotel was booked by [Pink Lightning], and the three of them drove directly to the hotel after arriving in South City.
[Pink Lightning]: Something happened suddenly at the wedding, so I can't have dinner with you tonight. I've already booked a restaurant, you can go directly there at 7 o'clock. If I'm done with my work, I'll go, but if I'm not, you can eat by yourselves. We're all from our gang and my master's sect, no outsiders.
Yan Qing received the message and relayed, "Lightning said he has something to do tonight and can't have dinner with us."
"It's already half past six, why don't we go straight there?" Yang Mingzhou suggested.
When he arrived at the hotel entrance, Yang Mingzhou saw a familiar person looking around at the door from afar.
The man also saw them immediately and came over jogging with a wave of his hand: "Boss!"
After saying that, he glanced at the two people in the back row and asked in a low voice: "Is that Brother Coal Ball?"
The man looked excited when he got a positive answer.
The four of them walked towards the box, and the person who came to pick them up had already introduced himself.
His game name is [Jitui]. He joined the gang after Yan Qing left. He is also the apprentice of [Pink Lightning]. He is very enthusiastic and kept introducing the people who came today to them.
When we arrived at the box, the lively atmosphere seemed to freeze in an instant, but it became lively again the next second.
Among them were some of the people who had participated in the last team building in Haicheng, and they greeted Yang Mingzhou first.
Yang Mingzhou: "This is [Coal Briquettes I Love], and she likes [Spicy Hot Pot]."
Hearing the familiar names, the people in the guild who knew the two were stunned. Even [Pink Lightning] hadn't told them that they would see the two of them together here again.
No one believed it.
Some people even asked [Shu Tong], after all, she and [Just Eat Spicy Hotpot] are real friends.
After receiving a positive answer, everyone couldn't believe it.
Yang Mingzhou: "Are you all stupid?"
"So everything in that post is true?"
After further explanation, everyone finally understood.
Looking at the two people sitting together, someone expressed their confusion to those around them: "Have you noticed that they don't look like they've just met. It's like they were in high school and had a premature love affair, but they were afraid the teacher would find out, so they had to pretend they didn't know each other."
"I noticed that too, but I couldn't ask. I was obsessed with the couple for a while, but I didn't expect it to be a BE. I was sad for several days."
The two of them whispered to each other, and after they finished speaking, they looked at the two protagonists who were still acting as "strangers" and smiled at each other.
Yan Qing rarely attended gatherings with so many people. She felt a little uncomfortable and didn't say a word. Although she became closer to the gang members later, the ones she often played with could not come until tomorrow.
Ming Xu has many acquaintances in the gang, and everyone is quite excited to meet them again today.
One of them even held his hand and cried with joy: "If you had continued playing back then, we would definitely have reached the 15th level."
"We can fight now."
He didn't believe it: "After all these years, you must not even recognize the skills."
Speaking of this, he thought of something and asked, "I saw your account online some time ago. It was late at night, and I didn't dare to ask."
Speaking of this, some people in the gang also remembered this matter, and everyone looked at Ming Xu, wanting to hear his explanation.
“You buy the look.”
Buying for appearance?
Everyone looked at each other, even Yan Qing looked confused.
Ming Xu continued to explain: "What if one day, I come back." After saying that, he glanced at the people around him without any expression.
"That makes sense, but Brother Meigu, you're still following the game updates even though you don't play the game. You really love this game."
Ming Xu: "If your gang leader hadn't sent me some random stuff every day, I wouldn't know when to update the appearance."
After discussing for a while, everyone started talking about their own things and the game.
At this time, the world of the past seemed to reappear in front of everyone. They seemed to have turned back into the students who had just reached adulthood or were in their early twenties. After class, they hurried back to the dormitory to play games. Every day, a group of people played until the early morning and were reluctant to log off. Only a small number of players who were controlled by the power outage could only wail in the group.
Yan Qing also thought about the time he had experienced, which was truly unforgettable.
"Sometimes we can go and take over the goods? The warehouse is full." Ming Xu whispered in her ear.
