A Couple Made In Dreams

Chapter 8: An Encounter on the Road

After returning to the herb patch, Serena quickly threw the encounter with the Watson Family to the back of her mind. But there was one thing that bugged to her. As she worked, she asked Satoshi: "How did you know he was doing a serial quest?"

"In the afternoon, I went online once. Saw him on the World Channel shouting he wanted seven types of feathers."

Satoshi simply explained and so Serena finally knew. Originally, Satoshi went online in the afternnon and saw DevilMandy buying seven different types of feathers to pass a quest, and so Satoshi knew he was doing a quest.

Serena was a bit confused. Why did gathering seven feathers mean a serial quest?

"There's several quests that require gathering feathers."

Satoshi: "En, but the NPC used for each quest are different. Gathering feathers is the 36th part of the serial quest. I went to the NPC for the 36th part and waited a while. He showed up pretty quickly."

Other than respect, Serena had no other thought. He-he-he could actually remember which part it was! Even which NPC correlating to which part! This type of memory was inhuman! When Serena thought that up until now, she had only memorized her English vocab to words starting with "p", she couldn't help but cry inside. She complimented him with a hint of envy: "Your memory is too good."

Then she suddenly remembered, Master saw DevilMandy in the afternoon and didn't confront him immediately. Instead he calculated the correct time at night and waited at the lake ......

This ability to calculate and plot was too astounding ...... too brutal >_< the amount of time Serena spent in 《Dreams of Pokemon》 unknowingly increased. before, Serena had a very interesting nickname called "the beautiful girl in the house" but now her friends changed it to "the moldy girl in the house." Before, Serena would frequently go out to shop and buy clothes but she had no interest in that now. Other than studying, there was only the game. On this evening, her dorm mates wanted to go shopping and tried to get her to come as well. Chloe said: "Serena, just think of it as exercise. sitting in front of the computer all day isn't good for the body." Serena wanted to faint: "you have the nerve to say exercise. i don't know who is it that needs me every morning to go get breakfast for them everyday? or who forgets every day to get water and needs me to go get it for them?" Chloe choked and May had to take over: "Serena, you're wearing last year's clothes. it's time to buy new ones." Serena carelessly waved her hand: "it's enough that i have something to wear." May pointed at her, hand shaking, "you, such a beautiful girl, saying this is too embarrassing! the way you are going, you're going to get kicked out of the university beauty rankings." It would have been better if she didn't say that. Whenever Serena thought about that stupid ranking list, she felt depressed. Ranking-schamking. They had actually done ranking level of danger, and did a popular vote. And she was also very high on the danger level! The most likely to cheat! Serena shook her head to indicate her distain: "Getting kicked off is good. I'm an introvert." Dawn finally got angry: "Serena Yvonne! If you don't go, who is going to bargain! If you don't go, tonight, we're starting a torture regimen tonight!" Serena: "......" this was their actual aim: her invincible ability to bargain ...... in the end, Serena surrendered under the physical strength of Dawn and was dragged onto the street. Shopping was really just browsing the few shops near the university. There wasn't a lot of physical exercise. In a short while, Serena had her hand full of large and small bags. It wasn't that she was forced to be the physical laborer, but they kept on trying on clothes and it was difficult to keep everything together. So as the one who wasn't buying anything, Serena decided to take everything. After going into another store, May tried on more clothes and coincidentally heard Serena musing to her self: "is it my destiny to be a servant?" In the game, it was like this. Master Satoshi was getting more and more used to ordering her ...... but that she sort of asked for it.

At the side, May couldn't help but laugh. This person was still expressing her reluctance, a face full of unwillingness. Was a game really that fun? She walked over to comfort her: "Okay, don't be angry anymore. On the basis of the fact you saved me money, I, the rich person, will pay for your dinner at Sky-fragnant Restaurant. Does their red wine chicken wings satisfy you?"

Sky-fragnant Restaurant was a very tasty restaurant right beside the campus. But becaue it was very expensive, not a lot of students ate there. It was only May who had the money that could go frequently. So the moment her words came out, everyone welcomed it with cheers.

Serena said: "I did the most, I want half of the wings."

Chloe remarked bad-temperedly: "Who's competing, I still want to lose weight."

Serena smugly replied: "You're just jealous I can't get fat from eating hahahaha."

Her smugness was in great need of a beatdown. Chloe, who was actually thin but always remarked she would get fat from drinking water, gritted her teeth: "May, shut the door. Release Dawn, bite her!"

They were already very hungry. The rest of the shops didn't hold any more interest. They left in a group of cheer towards Sky-fragnant Restaurant. Between the laughter and the talking, Sky-fragnant Restaurant wasn't very far. Chloe had been happily gossiping on the males in the department. Suddenly she stopped in her steps and looked at the doorway of Sky-fragnant Restaurant. She excitedly grabbed Serena's hand. "Look, isn't that Ash!"

On the opposite side of the road in front of the entrance of Sky-fragnant Restaurant, a group of people in formal wear were just coming out. At first glance, Serena found Ash in the midst of a group of middle-aged men. Under the bright lights, the young and upright Ash seemed especially bright and eye-catching. Unlike the previous times Serena had seen Ash, today he was wearing a formal suit. On his face was a faint smile. The same clear elegant yet delicate features still carried aspects of cool pride but there was another aspect of sophisticated and steady worldliness.

"Ah, quick, cross the road."

Even though they wouldn't dare go up and greet them, getting closer was still good. Chloe excitedly dragged Serena across the road but it was still too late. The crowd of men had already gotten in a business car. Ash had opened the door of another car. It might have been that their movements attracted too much attention. Before Ash got in the car, he seemed to sense them and turned in their direction.

Unlike the smile that had been under the lights, at the moment, Ash's brow were full of indifference. His eyes glanced past them. He shut the door and the car left.
