VRMMO: The Unrivaled

Chapter 1389: Meeting Mr. O Again

A rare ray of sunlight pierced through the leaves and branches of a pine tree and cast some shadows on the ground. Standing beneath it was the quartermaster we were looking for, a tall and burly auntie with golden hair and the emblem of the Silver Moon Alliance floating across her shoulder. In a sense, I was glad to be a member of the Silver Moon Alliance. To fight evil, they would accept even an auntie with such a… hardcore appearance to be their quartermaster.

I walked up to the auntie with Beiming, passed her my bag of resources and said without mincing my words, "These are the goods we’ve obtained along the way. Now, please give us our reward…"

A trace of astonishment flashed across her eyes. "Over 80000 goods? You didn’t steal this from somewhere, did you, boy?"

I raised an eyebrow. "Of course I stole them. From the Purgatory Legions. You wanna give it a try yourself?"

The quartermaster wisely shut up. NPCs like her weren't even strong enough to give a minotaur a challenge, much less a slayer of countless minotaurs like me. She put a hand on my shoulder and declared, "Young warrior, you have done well to intercept these precious supplies from the Purgatory Legions. Without them, the enemy won’t be able to forge the dark siege weapons necessary to attack our cities. This is the reward you deserve!"

Ding!

System Notice: Congratulations, the goods you turned in have net you the following rewards: 897720000 experience, 89772 Reputation, and 4 Luck!

……

For a second, I couldn’t say anything. Then, I immediately asked in the party channel, "Guys! Did you guys receive a Luck reward when you were turning in your supplies?"

Moonlight Stone: "No? What’s wrong, Lu Chen?"

Me: "I received 4 fucking Luck is what! I turned in 80k+ goods to get it!"

Gui Guzi: "I turned in 20k+ goods and got 1 Luck as well!"

High Fighting Spirits: "What the fuck! I turned in 19k goods but didn’t get any Luck…"

Li Chengfeng: "I turned in 44k goods and got 2 Luck…"

He Yi: "Er, I haven’t turned in anything yet. I’m almost at 40k though…"

I hurriedly say, "Well, it’s clear now that every 20k goods turned in will net you 1 Luck. This is the perfect opportunity to earn some Luck, so make sure you turn in your goods only after you’ve gathered multiples of 20k!"

Beiming Xue: "Big bro, I have exactly 40k goods, so I’m turning them all in, okay?"

"Mn."

I thought for a moment before adding, "Eve, once you’ve gathered 40k goods, you should turn in your goods and log out. We really should get some food soon, my stomach feels like someone’s drumming inside of it."

He Yi chuckled. "Mn. I’ll speak with Mingyue and Lian Xin."

"Kay!"

……

The girls were still in the game when I logged out, so I went to take a bath first. When I came out, He Yi, Murong Mingyue and Lian Xin were already eating in the living room. It was just a quick snack though. Our actual lunch took place at a buffet restaurant at 3 pm.

The variety of food in the restaurant was subpar—it was expected since not many people ate lunch at 3 pm—but we still ate like we had been starving for a couple of years. In fact, we almost ate enough to be worth the 200 RMB entrance "ticket" we paid per person.

Once we got back to the workshop, it was dozing off to lalaland once more.

When I woke up, it was past 8 pm and dinnertime once more. What could you do? Food was a critical aspect in everyday life after all.

……

I was about to log into the game when my phone suddenly rang. It was an unfamiliar number.

"Hello? Who is this?"

"I’m Nangong Lexi!"

"Ohh, Beauty Lexi! What is it?"

"Lu Chen, I’m in Yiyi’s bedroom at Suzhou University right now. We were here to grab some teaching materials for Yiyi, but a handsome guy suddenly appeared beneath the hostel in a white BMW with a trunk full of roses. He’s confessing to Yiyi, and Yiyi has no idea what to do. She didn’t dare to call you herself, so I hid myself in the toilet and called you myself. Oh right, you probably know that handsome guy…"

"MOTHERFUCKER!"

I jumped to my feet immediately. "Give me a moment. I’ll be there right away!"

"Please do. I’ve been itching for some real life drama…"

Me: "..."

……

I raced down the apartment and hopped into my X12. I arrived at Suzhou University in less than 20 minutes and was let in by the guards without any issue because the X12’s symbol was just that shiny. As I came to a stop beneath Lin Yixin’s hostel, I saw a shiny white BMW 760 just as Nangong Lexi had told me. A familiar figure was standing beside the car and making a call on his phone. He was a handsome man, and he and his BMW complemented each other well.

"Owen?"

I frowned as I shifted the gear to P and pulled the handbrake. Then, I grabbed my car keys and got out of the car. To be honest, I wasn’t quite sure how to deal with Owen. Lin Yixin was my girlfriend, so no one would blame me if I punched the motherfucker right in the face. However, Owen was someone Lin Xiao, Lin Yixin’s father, shared a business relationship with. If I went overboard, Lin Xiao would be put in a difficult position. Equally though, it wasn’t my style to not retaliate after being challenged like this. What kind of boyfriend would I be if someone was courting my girlfriend in my face, and all I did was to criticize him loudly?

I gave my collar a tug. Luckily, I was still wearing the Versace clothes Lin Yixin had bought for me the other day. I took out my phone and called Lin Yixin’s number. However, all I got was a busy tone, so I had to wait for a couple of minutes before it finally connected.

"Little Cheat!" Lin Yixin sounded absolutely delighted when she greeted me.

I smiled. "I’m downstairs right now, Yiyi. Come down and join me for supper, yeah?"

"Sure! Wait for me!"

Lin Yixin hung up happily. A short moment later, a beautiful figure exited the door. Lin Yixin was wearing a white shirt and a black mini skirt tonight. She looked intoxicatingly beautiful.

While this was going on, countless girls in the hostel had opened their windows to watch the show. I could even hear some of their discussions—

"Wow, look at the trunk full of roses! That handsome guy with the BMW 760 is romantic. I wonder who he was waiting for? It’s been an entire hour since he arrived!"

"Yeah yeah! He looks so cultured too. He’s totally my type of guy!"

"Pooh, have some shame, girl!"

"Oh right, did you guys notice that 12 series just a dozen or so meters away from that 7 series? That guy is quite handsome too!"

"Huh? I don’t see anyone!"

"..."

……

The moment Lin Yixin appeared, Owen hurriedly strode up to her. He never even noticed my presence, or more accurately he was too focused on Lin Yixin to think about anything. I never imagined that he would come all the way to the university and make such a low-class attempt to court Yiyi. Like seriously, a trunk full of roses? He seriously thinks he can court Lin Yixin with that?

"Yiyi!"

Owen was all smiles as he walked up to Lin Yixin. "You finally came down. I’m going to fly to France tomorrow, and I’ll be gone for the whole week. That’s why I want to bid you goodbye before I go. Is there any gift you would like me to bring you when I return from France?"

Lin Yixin easily zigzagged past Owen before opening her arms for me. With the sweetest smile on her face, she hugged me tightly and said, "I missed you so much, Little Cheat!"

I returned the hug just as tightly while asking her, "So, are we getting that supper?"

"Of course! I wanna eat the crawfish you peel for me yourself!"

"Really? Where would we even find that in this season?"

"I don’t care! Make it happen for me!"

"Fine, fine. We’ll go hunt for your crawfish!"

After I said that, I let go of Lin Yixin temporarily and glared at Owen. Right now, the guy looked like someone had sapped all the color of life out of his body.

Even so, he forced himself to walk up to Lin Yixin and hold up a bouquet of roses to her. "Yiyi, regardless of what auntie and uncle think, I personally really want to date you. I really do love you…"

Lin Yixin looked like she didn’t know how to respond.

The girls in the hostel even squealed, "Say yes! Say yes!"

I gritted my teeth and walked up to Owen’s car trunk. Then, I lifted a huge bouquet of roses with one hand, ripped off their petals, and flung them all into the air. As the rose petals of hundreds of roses fell from the sky, I tossed away the stems, walked up to Lin Yixin, and kissed her firmly on the lips.

We kissed under the rain of rose petals right before everyone’s eyes. At first, the startled Lin Yixin flailed her hands a little, but she quickly caught herself and returned my kiss with even greater passion than I.

The busybodies who ran all the way downstairs just to watch the show were speechless as well.

……

An entire half a minute later, I finally let go of the blushing Lin Yixin and smiled at her. "Let’s go and search for our crawfish, shall we?"

"Mn mn!" Lin Yixin nodded repeatedly.

I let go of my pretty little girlfriend and smiled at Owen. "Sorry for damaging your prop, Mr. O. You won’t ask me to pay for it, will you?"

An ashen-faced Owen replied woodenly, "N… no…"

"Good!"

I walked up to the nearest wall, pulled a brick out of it [1], and smashed it against the back of his BMW 760. The paint where the recess was was scraped, the car alarm blared loudly, and the resulting lights flashed Owen’s face a complexion so ugly that nothing in our surroundings even came close to it.

I said indifferently, "You said I don’t need to pay you for damaging your prop. I believe you. I also said I’d show you what I’m made of if you dared to harass Yiyi again, and you should’ve believed me! Tell your lawyer to contact me later if you want to claim damages for your car. I’ll pay for it!"

Finally, I led Lin Yixin into my X12, entered the driver’s seat and drove past Owen with a broom. Both Owen and the girls in the entire hostel were completely stunned for a time!

……

Suddenly, I caught Nangong Lexi stomping her foot on my back mirror. She was yelling, "You two did NOT just leave me here, you absolute bastards! What should I do now? Are you really going to make me catch a taxi??"

I laughed and called Nangong Lexi on the phone, "Yiyi and I will be back after we grab some supper, so just do whatever you want until then. Do you want anything? We can pack it for you."

She replied, "In that case, please bring me a handsome man who’s good at everything and has a powerful waist…"

Me: "..."

……

Unfortunately, we failed to find the crawfish Yiyi craved despite searching for it for a very long time. So, we settled for some seafood and packed some for Nangong Lexi as well. Lin Yixin seemed really happy and satisfied with my performance tonight, and of course I didn’t regret what I did one bit. From the moment I decided to be together with Lin Yixin, I had already resolved myself to fight off her skirt chasers for the rest of my life. I would take on even a million Owens if I had to!

It wasn’t past midnight that I finally returned to the workshop. It was time to log back in and continue the grind!
