The sound of the hair dryer came and went, and after a while Gu Liting heard the sound of a lighter. If it wasn't for the silence in the room, the slight sound would be easily overlooked.

Because Gu Liting is a bit of a clean freak and has a keen sense of smell, Jing Yang seldom smokes at home.

Gu Liting wanted to call him, but after thinking about it, he still didn't make a sound. He put down the magazine in his hand and checked the time. It was already past nine o'clock.

Jing Yang returned to the room about 10 minutes later, his hair was dry, and there was no smell of cigarettes on his body, he probably came in after the smell dissipated outside.

Jing Yang climbed onto the bed and lay beside him, whispering, "Go to sleep."

Gu Liting still has a lot of questions to ask, but the atmosphere at this moment seems inappropriate to say these words, so he just said "good night" and then hugged Jing Yang tightly, imprinting a good night kiss on his forehead.

"Go to sleep."

"Ah."

Jing Yang closed his eyes, and after an unknown amount of time, he was still sleepless and restless.

Suddenly he heard Xiaoxing's voice.

[I'm online. 】

In the darkness, Jing Yang suddenly opened his eyes.

[I saw your message, don't worry, I will answer your questions one by one. 】

Jing Yang hurriedly asked it: "Every time you go online is a critical time, so why do you go online at this time?"

【Yes, the system issued a warning and realized that you wanted to tell the truth to the game characters. 】

Jingyang frowned vigilantly, and said, "Can't you say it?"

Xiao Xing's voice was a little hasty and cold, [Of course not, doing so will have incalculable consequences, this world has its own rules and order. 】

Jing Yang was silent for a while, and asked, "For example, what are the consequences?"

Xiao Xing: [For example, if the protagonist's aura is weakened, or the star luck is taken away by cannon fodder, the mission may fail. 】

Jing Yang's heart turned cold, the consequences were too serious.

Xiao Xing said: [So I advise you not to do unnecessary things, finish your tasks well, and you can get benefits and go back sooner. 】

Jing Yang said: "I remember you said at the beginning that after I complete the task, I can leave here and return to the real world?"

【Yes, that's right. 】

"If I say, I want to stay..."

【You mean, you want to stay in this world? 】Xiao Xingji’s voice also revealed a hint of doubt, 【Are you just asking, or have you thought it through? 】

"Yes, I've made up my mind. Let me ask you, can I stay?" Jing Yang said firmly.

It took a long time for Xiaoxing to say: 【It depends on what kind of form you stay. If you fail the mission and become cannon fodder, you also stay, but the role of cannon fodder is the stepping stone of the protagonist. Your fate will never be good.However, after completing the task, the identity of Xu Jingyang does not belong to you anymore, and if you insist on staying, you will have to pay the price.Therefore, completing the mission and leaving here is your best choice, and you can still get certain rewards. 】

Jingyang slowly digested the amount of information in his words, and his heart became heavier.

"What price?"

【Don't worry, you can afford the price. If you are sure to stay, just complete the task well. 】Xiaoxing doesn't seem to want to elaborate on this question, 【Do you still need to answer the question you left in the message?My time is limited and I can't stay too long. 】

"Need it." Jing Yang said quickly.

[You have a lot of questions in the message, I will pick a few to answer you, first: about lighting up achievements. 】Xiao Xing seems to be checking his message board, 【Lighting up achievements can get star luck rewards, and it is an important prerequisite for you to complete the task. Only by lighting up all achievements and reaching full star luck points can you complete the task.As for how many achievements there are in total, I don't know this, because the achievements are not fixed, it mainly depends on your development direction. 】

This is pretty much what Jing Yang expected.

[Second, I don’t know much about the emotional issues of the characters in the strategy you want to know. Every character in this world is portrayed by the game author, and some of them are simplified and conceptualized when they are shaped. Generally, the emotion is single, and the reaction to things is very direct, but some endow it with deep and multi-faceted emotions. Even in the fixed plot of the script, the latter will have self-thinking, special emotions, and be affected by all aspects of the environment. It cannot be completely called a virtual character, at least the emotion is real. 】

In fact, this question was left by Jing Yang when he was with Gu Liting. In fact, he was afraid that Gu Liting would fall in love with him only because the game system imposed a fixed favorability. But after getting along with him later, this problem no longer bothered Jing Yang.

***

After Xiaoxing went offline, Jing Yang couldn't fall asleep for a long time, and Gu Liting probably didn't sleep either, he could feel that Gu Liting's breathing was relatively long and not smooth.

Because of insomnia, both of them got up late the next day. Jing Yang and Gu Liting were woken up almost at the same time by the ringing of their mobile phones. Tickle somehow got in. It got their quilt under the bed, and neither of them covered their bodies. The quilt, fortunately, the temperature in the room is not low and does not feel cold.

Jing Yang didn't wake up from sleep, he frowned, his face was full of displeasure, his complexion began to improve after hearing Gu Liting's voice, he opened his eyes, and looked at Gu Liting blankly.

Gu Liting, who was wearing pajamas, was talking on the phone with his back turned to him, speaking in English, Jing Yang didn't listen carefully.

He sat on the bed in a daze, still in a daze. He probably only slept for four hours last night.

After a while, he suddenly remembered that there were still many things to do today, so he quickly got up and looked for his mobile phone.

Cheng Dan told him yesterday that he was going to attend the King of Glory Anniversary Ceremony this morning, and he had to attend a brand event in the afternoon.

It's almost nine o'clock, and it's too late. The grand ceremony starts at ten o'clock, and he can be late for half an hour at most, and he has to make up and change clothes first. It takes at least an hour for the cosplay look to be done.

Yesterday, Cheng Dan said that he would come to pick him up in the morning, and he said that he didn't need to go by himself, so the two made an appointment at nine o'clock, and Cheng Dan went to the backstage of the venue to wait for him first.

It is more than half an hour's drive away from the venue of the grand ceremony, even if it is now, it will be late.

Jing Yang hurriedly ran into the bathroom to wash up, Gu Liting kept talking on the phone, as if there was something urgent, and Jing Yang hadn't changed his clothes when Cheng Dan called.

Jing Yang explained the situation clearly and simply, "I got up late and haven't gone out yet, you wait for me there and explain to me, I'll be there in half an hour."

Cheng Dan said, "Brother Xu, do you want to drive here by yourself?"

"Well, I'll be here soon, hang up." Jing Yang sighed, threw the phone aside, then pulled a suit of clothes from the cabinet and put it on.

Cheng Dan was annoyed why he didn't call in advance, but after thinking about it, he felt a little strange: Ever since Brother Xu and Mr. Gu lived together, Cheng Dan never asked him to wake him up. With Mr. Gu here, how could Brother Xu still oversleep?

He never thought that Gu Liting would also oversleep due to insomnia.

After Gu Liting made the phone call, Jing Yang was changing shoes at the entrance, because Gu Liting had been on the phone, he was too anxious to rush to the celebration, and he was a little awkward, so Jing Yang didn't talk to Gu Liting after waking up.

Seeing that he was going to leave without saying hello, Gu Liting was somewhat unhappy, and called him, "Jingyang."

Jing Yang turned his head and saw Gu Liting looking directly at him, with a calm expression on his face, he said with astringent heart, "I'm in a hurry and I have work."

His words were dry, without warmth, and seemed a little cold, but he sensed that Gu Liting was unhappy, so Jing Yang wanted to say something to explain and make up for it, but Wang Yu's phone call came over suddenly.

Jing Yang looked down, and for some reason, said, "Wang Yu's phone number."

Gu Liting hummed, "Then go quickly."

As a result, it was hard for Jing Yang to say anything, he opened his mouth and could only say: "I'll be back early at night."

***

Jing Yang rushed to the grand ceremony in a hurry, the scene was almost set up, and it was less than half an hour before entering the venue.

Wang Yu didn't say anything when he called just now. When he learned that he got up late for the celebration, he scolded him a few words. He also heard that he was in a bad mood, so he didn't say much. He told him to drive slowly and hung up the phone.

Jing Yang was thinking about Gu Liting all the way, and decided to ease the atmosphere when he went back at night.

When he arrived at the venue, Jing Yang rushed into the dressing room backstage, and bumped into someone before he even looked up.He looked up and froze in place.

He bumped into a "Ying Zheng".

Xin He, who has short silver hair and is wearing medieval European aristocratic costumes, is staring at him unhappily. He has makeup on, his skin is very fair, and he wears wine-red colored contact lenses. Jing Yang couldn't recognize him at first glance.
