Cold Night sent Jiang You's group the document. They all opened it and began studying it. After reading it through, they discovered that in order to break the record, they still needed to consult with Lord Grim. If they had known this earlier, then they wouldn't have done so many tricks.
There were no words to describe what they were feeling right now. The only thing that made them feel a bit better was that they knew who Lord Grim really was.
Ye Qiu. It was an identity that wouldn't garner any love in Tyrannical Ambition.
At least against such a strong opponent, losing wasn't shameful.
They were all comforted by this thought to some degree. They tacitly agreed not to mention Ye Qiu, nor Lord Grim, and focus only on the guide's content.
They were all experts, so they quickly understood the guide's value. The highlighted portions were the guide's most important points. The guide had originally required the use of five fixed classes, but...... by learning the most important parts of the guide, the classes didn't need to be fixed. Jiang You's group discussed this issue about how they could integrate the strategy into their class setup.
Meanwhile, Ye Xiu had already logged off. Ye Xiu was now off from work, so he went out to eat breakfast. While coming back, he saw Chen Guo standing outside of the entrance, ordering a few employees around.
"Oh? Are we going to celebrate Christmas?" When Ye Xiu walked over, he saw that a small pine tree was standing erect at the Internet Cafe's entrance. Chen Guo was currently putting on bright lights and presents.
"Oh? You actually know the date? You didn't make a mistake, did you?" Chen Guo said. For people like Ye Xiu who had their days and nights flipped upside down, in her eyes, it was very easy for them to lose track of time.
"I accidentally noticed it." Ye Xiu circled around the small pine tree.
"Not bad!" Ye Xiu praised.
"Of course."
"Is there actually stuff in here?" Ye Xiu pointed to the small presents hanging on the tree.
"Of course."
"What's inside?"
"Raffle prizes, coupons, etc." Chen Guo said.
"Oh, oh." Ye Xiu understood. Clearly, Chen Guo was like a lot of business owners and used this holiday as a marketing scheme.
"I say, boss! When you set up events, you should pay more attention to it! You should buy a Christmas tree. What's up with this tree? Did you make it yourself with wires?" Ye Xiu circled around the Christmas tree again. Ye Xiu could tell that this Christmas tree wasn't real and had been made entirely by hand.
"A handmade one isn't good enough?" Chen Guo walked over and said.
"It's not that it's not good. It's just that it can't compare to an actual tree. It also looks kind of old. Was it from last year?" Ye Xiu asked.
Chen Guo shook her head: "I made it with my dad ten years ago."
Ye Xiu was startled.
He had worked in the Internet Cafe for almost a month. Even though he hadn't heard Chen Guo say it personally, he had heard quite a few stories about her from other employees. He had heard that Chen Guo had taken over the cafe by herself after her parents had passed away.
This rough-looking, hand-made Christmas tree wasn't just used by Chen Guo for advertisement, but it was also a reminder of her memories with her parents. This Christmas tree definitely had a lot of history behind it.
