Zhan Long (Ep-101 and many more)

Chapter 256 - Attack by Maiden

Morning in the ZGTV lobbies.

I turned my head up gazing at the structure; this building couldn't be considered luxurious at all; at least it was a lot less formal looking than the building next to it. Downstairs, a vivid lifelike bronze statue of a barbarian Berserker stood guarding the floor while holding a battle axe. The words Destiny 08/27/2017 were written on its' pedestal. That was the date on which Destiny first opened its servers.

......

Wan Er wore a cream colored short skirt with a nice dress shirt and jacket. She exuded a gentle and refined grace while carrying her white purse. Looking at the building, she laughed, "ZGTV's gaming culture seems to be doing fine..."

Continuing, she happily said, "I was interested in video games ever since I graduated from junior high. Wu...if I had the choice, I would not have sung Heart of Time these past years but would have gone to work for ZGTV or possibly Destiny. Even if I was stuck at a small time desk job, it would still be like working at a place of my dreams. Li Xia Yao, what do you think?"

I was wearing a western black suit. Looking at her hope filled gaze, I laughed merrily, "I don't have the ability to make a choice."

"Why not?" Wan Er looked at me dumbfounded.

I answered after thinking for a bit, "Because everyone's life is different, the moment I joined my teacher on the path of martial arts, I was destined to live a life full of death and murder. What I learned was not for entertainment or for show, it was... to kill people..."

Wan Er frowned, a trace of doubt flickering within her beautiful eyes, "You...you really have killed people before?"

I turned around to avoid looking at her and gave a small chuckle, "Let's not talk about this, it's almost time to go. We should head upstairs; Fei Er is probably waiting for us in the lobby..."

"Oh..."

Wan Er was smart, and she didn't continue to press on about my past. She knew I wouldn't talk about it anyways.

......

In the ZGTV lounge. Fei Er had changed into a coffee colored uniform dress; smiling, she got up from the sofa and greeted us, "You two finally came; I was almost afraid of being stood up. If that happened, then my poor salary for this month would had been a travesty to see..."

"How could we, we are honest players that keep our promises..." Wan Er laughed.

Fei Er looked at Wan Er's powdered face silently, "Ai, an interview with the legendary Heart of Time singer, Lin Wan Er. The pressure is too big. You're so pretty too, I'm already feeling weak in the knees..."

I pounded my chest, "Don't worry, you have me as a support actor here. Being beautiful is something that should be left up to you two; I'll focus on being mediocre."

Fei Er laughed, "Xiao Yao Zi Zai is such a jokester. You are the leader of [Zhan Long], and the new handsome player of Ba Huang City. You are in no way the support role; you and Lin Wan Er will be today's leading roles. Let's go on, the broadcasting station is on the 9th floor. I'll take you all there."

"Alright."

......

As the elevator slowly rose towards the 9th floor, we watched as the broadcasting hall came into view. The lights were already lit and five cameraman were already working on the set. With Fei Er as the sixth member, she gave me and Wan Er the manuscripts for the interview. On the script were all sorts of topics regarding Destiny; that way, the interview would not run out of topics to discuss.

"Need some light makeup?" Fei Er asked us, "Otherwise when the light shines on you, you won't look as good."

Wan Er asked, "I already have some on, just some minor foundation. It won't be that noticeable to anyone else."
