Chapter 247: Leaving Jade Sea Pavilion (1)
Seeing as tomorrow was Monday, they didn’t stay out too late and slowly began dispersing when it was about ti to leave. Ever since he’d tried to proclaim his love for Shen Jingbin just now, all the way till the ti he sent the siblings ho, Zhao Chengning hadn’t found the chance to be alone with her. And so, his question went unanswered.
Over the next few days, both the Shen siblings and Zhao Chengning were particularly busy. With the New Year just around the corner, their respective companies were preparing for their annual etings. In addition, each departnt also had to work on their year-end summaries. They were so busy they started wishing they had the ability to turn a single day into two. At the sa ti, their hectic work life naturally ant that Shen Jingbin and Zhao Chengning’s romance had to be relegated to the backburner.
A week had passed by before work died down.
Seeing how hard the siblings had worked, and the fact that they’d more or less learned everything they needed to learn, Ye Linfan gave them several days off with a wave of his hand. The siblings didn’t dare go out to have fun though as it was about ti for the Shen elders to pay them. Instead, they used their break as an opportunity to log in to the ga that had been left to the side for a long while.
[Guild] Vice Leader Dawn’s Twilight has co online.
[Guild] Lingering White Clouds: Oh, Dawn you’re here?
[Guild] Little Monk: Yoooooooo Dawn, long ti no see, I’ve missed you so much!
[Guild] Eight National Treasures: Nutty’s online too.
[Guild] Eternal Rest: Nutty, Dawn, have you guys been busy? Haven’t seen you guys for a long ti.
[Guild] Long Life: Even the number of fortuitous events have decreased without Mascot around.
[Guild] Dawn’s Twilight: We’ve been interning lately and were a little busy, so we couldn’t co online. Sorry about that.
[Guild] Tanabata Evening: Dawn, you’re interning already? To be honest, since New Year’s around the corner, we haven’t been able to get our hands on all of the attractive in-ga events since we have to do overti at our jobs. What a sha.
[Guild] Faint Blue Seaweed: Yeah, I’ve been worked to the bone recently, but I’m still logging into the ga. This is what true love is like.
[Guild] Syrup Ti: Nutty, aren’t you still in schooling? You’re interning on top of that?
[Guild] Nutjob: Mm. I’ll be graduating soon, so it’s not a bad idea for to gain so experience beforehand.
[Guild] Descent Of Rain And Snow: I’m so jealous of you guys! I’m graduating soon too, but I still haven’t found a job! My family’s also hurrying to find a job, get a boyfriend, get married, and then have so kids. They’re kicking up so much of a fuss that I can’t even think straight.
Shen Jingbin rembered that Descent Of Rain And Snow was around the sa age as she was, but she was being forced to get married?
[Guild] Nutjob: Already? You’re still young though.
[Guild] Descent Of Rain And Snow: I think I’m still young too, but my parents were spurred on after the girl next door, who was a year younger than , gave birth to a kid. They feel that I’m already old enough, so they want to settle down. But the thing is, all the guys around are even more useless than , so who am I supposed to marry?! Oh, speaking of which, Nutty, your Hubby used to be my God last ti!
[Guild] Nutjob: Uh...
[Guild] Descent Of Rain And Snow: But don’t worry, I don’t have the guts to go after him even if I do like him. I’ll just admire him from afar.
[Guild] Yann Imperial Sister: Speaking of which, Leader hasn’t logged on during this ti either.
[Guild] Temperate Scarlet Moon: Doesn’t Leader run his own company? He’s probably busy as well since he usually doesn’t log on much during the New Year period.
[Guild] Big Buddhist Monk: Leader’s on noticeably less this ti around though; even Next Week’s gone missing.
[Guild] Eternal Rest: Thank goodness there’s still us old guards and regular mbers around to help out when our guild’s backbone isn’t around. Otherwise, the enemy probably would’ve taken advantage of this opportunity to strike.
[Guild] Dawn’s Twilight: Mhm? Did sothing big happen when we weren’t around? Did anything happen with the Shinra Sect, Sovereigns Descent, Life At First Sight, or the like?
[Guild] Syrup Ti: Now that you ntion it, Sovereign’s Descent and Life At First Sight have been crazy arrogant lately. I bumped into them several tis when I accompanied a group of people to collect herbs and they provoked us the mont they ran into us. Aren’t they a being stupid though? They obviously couldn’t win but they were still trying to court death. Guess not everyone has a brain.
[Guild] Lingering White Clouds: Nutty, you should be a little more careful. Our enemies have been trying to cause trouble for us these days, so you need to watch yourself when you go to PK zones.
[Guild] Nutjob: Okay.
After fooling around a little more with her guildmates, Shen Jingbin decided to pay her sect a visit. But just as she teleported to the entrance of White Cloud Temple, she received mail from Pure Crane.
"You’re finally on."
Shen Jingbin sent out her reply as she made her way towards the Sect Leader’s residence, "Did sothing happen?"
The NPCs who were going to and fro around White Cloud Temple all paused when they saw her and gave a very respectful bow. "Greetings, Great Senior Sister." Shen Jingbin nodded back in reply before continuing on her way.
"Mm, sothing did happen. Where are you? I want to have a face-to-face chat with you."
"I’m at White Cloud Temple," After replying, Shen Jingbin turned and walked towards White Cloud Temple’s main hall.
Pure Crane moved quickly and was already there waiting for her when she reached the main hall. Many of the players and NPCs gathered in the area broke off into groups of twos and threes to start whispering amongst themselves.
Shen Jingbin got straight to the point and asked, "What happened?"
Pure Crane glanced around before he replied, "Let’s find sowhere with fewer people around."
Shen Jingbin had also felt no small amount of gazes directed at her. She’d only co here to make it easier for Pure Crane to find her and hadn’t expected to be gawked at by so many people. After all, she was of the opinion that all players should mind their own business.
However, she’d evidently underestimated the gossipy nature of players.
