Chapter 87 - I Feel Like None of You Slept

Chen Guo quickly tidied everything up and then appeared in the Internet Cafe like the wind. While the employees all greeted her with “Morning Boss”, her gaze fell on Tang Rou in the non-smoking area. Her expression was the same as when Chen Guo went to sleep: concentrated without the slightest hint of tiredness. She ran to the smoking area and her gaze fell onto another person. Ye Xiu was over here smoking, taking in clouds and puffing out fog. In that cloud of smoke, the rough outline of his figure could be seen playing the game.

Early in the morning! This was the time of day when the Internet Cafe was the most empty. There were even fewer guests now than when the guests were pulling all-nighters. The sounds of these two playing crisply echoed throughout the Internet Cafe. You once, me once, pa pa pa pa.

Chen Guo ignored Ye Xiu and first went over to Tang Rou.

。

“Still playing. You’re asking to die.” Chen Guo closed in while speaking.

No response. Tang Rou was wearing her headphones, which only allowed her to hear the game noises. The Chen Guo next to her simply wasn’t with her in the same world.

Chen Guo could only step forward and take off her headphones. Only then did Tang Rou respond.

“You got up so early!” Tang Rou turned her head to look at Chen Guo for half a second and then turned back to the game, pa pa pa pa.

“You’ve gone mad from playing.” Chen Guo was helpless. She was starting to feel a little skeptical on whether pulling Tang Rou into Glory was the right thing to do.

“Ha ha.” Tang Rou laughed, but didn’t say anything.

“What level?” Chen Guo went up to look.

“Level 16. I’m still off from Ye Xiu’s Lord Grim by 5 levels.” Tang Rou said this and opened up her friends list. After seeing Lord Grim’s name, she cried out in surprise: “Woah, he leveled up again. He’s Level 22 now.”

“So competitive! Finish this dungeon and then go to sleep. Once you’re done resting, you can go back and play.” Chen Guo saw that Tang Rou’s Soft Mist was in the beginner village’s Skeleton Graveyard fighting in close quarters. She was soloing it too. Who would believe that this was a Glory noob?

“What sleep? It’s almost time for me to go to work.” Tang Rou said.

Chen Guo was startled. That was true. Today, Tang Rou had the morning work shift. Normally, she would already be sitting at the reception desk.

“I’ll go once I’m out of this dungeon!” Tang Rou smiled at Chen Guo. No matter how good their relationship was, in the end there was still a boss-to-employee relationship. Tang Rou also had work to do in the Internet Cafe. She wasn’t eating for free or living here for free, only playing here for free.

“First rest a bit! I’ll ask someone to switch with you.” Chen Guo said.

“No need, no need.” Tang Rou chatted with Chen Guo while her hands never stopped moving. This night, through the guides and the game, Tang Rou had learned how to use the Battle Mage’s low-level skills. Tang Rou had improved a lot and was already different from before, not completely relying on reaction speed and hand speed to play.

“Okay!” Under Chen Guo’s watch, Tang Rou’s Soft Mist soloed the Spider Cave’s final BOSS. After logging out of the game and shutting off the computer, she immediately headed towards the reception desk. Chen Guo silently followed her and then when she reached the reception desk, Tang Rou had already logged back into the game.

“We should at least eat something, right?” Chen Guo said.

“You haven’t eaten either? Thanks!” Tang Rou laughed as if she had won a favor.
