Aunt Wang felt a deep inner struggle. On one hand, there were dozens of brothers, and on the other hand, there were the talents she valued most and her own younger sister. However, the brothers had built a relationship over several years, and the entire operation of the studio relied on them. Therefore, what Aunt Wang was doing felt like cutting away a piece of her heart. To stabilize the emotions of the brothers, she even let her beloved sister leave the studio.
Although Lufeng had anticipated this outcome long ago, facing the moment of separation left him somewhat at a loss. The money everyone had saved was not much; six people's living expenses required a significant amount, which was quite a burden in B City.
One night away from home led to such an outcome. Lufeng felt he had no way to explain things reasonably to everyone and was left feeling helpless—suffering in silence.
As Lufeng reached the door, he turned back and said softly, "Auntie, the scariest thing is not the enemy!"
Aunt Wang was taken aback, sensing that Lufeng had something to say but hesitated. However, she didn't dwell on it too much and replied, "Hurry up and go. Take good care of Xiaojing. If I find out she has been wronged, you'll be in trouble!"
Aunt Wang was no fool; she naturally understood that Night Wolf had liked Wang Xiaojing for several years and had expressed his feelings both openly and subtly. However, he had never harmed Xiaojing, so he chose to turn a blind eye to it. Now that Lufeng had been driven out of Myth Studio by Night Wolf's manipulation, it was merely an attempt to bury Lufeng within Wen Tian. This way, he could be sure that Wang Xiaojing would leave Lufeng. Yet Night Wolf's calculations fell short; he underestimated Lufeng's growth. Without Myth Studio's support, although Handmade equipment would suffer greatly, with the cooperation of Lufeng and others in the future, they could still earn considerable wealth—this was a matter for later.
"Sigh~"
Seeing that Aunt Wang didn't take it seriously, Lufeng sighed. Before Night Wolf took action against Aunt Wang, he couldn't reveal Night Wolf's wrongdoing; even if he did, few would believe him.
After returning to the studio suite, Lufeng quickly arranged, "Everyone pack up your things immediately. Xiaojing, you have a wide network; go rent a better suite and try to move everything over before midnight!"
Wang Xiaojing couldn't help but chuckle lightly: "No need to rent; I have an apartment near B University with two bedrooms and a living room. We can all squeeze in together. I'll send someone over to clean it up!"
"Two rooms? Are we supposed to sleep in the living room?" Climax said with embarrassment.
"We'll arrange it when we get there; that suite is quite large. I'll have two big beds sent over shortly!"
After saying this, Wang Xiaojing made a phone call and settled everything in less than a minute. She then said, "Everyone hurry up and pack your bags; let's meet here in half an hour!"
"No need; ten minutes is enough!" Climax smiled brightly, feeling incredibly cheerful. As long as he was with Lufeng, he wouldn't starve; any salary was just trivial to him. Leaving now felt rather liberating—no longer dependent on others and free to do as he pleased.
Wang Xiaojing ignored the situation and pulled Xiaoxiao to their respective rooms.
However, Qiu Han couldn't find any reason to smile. Without a salary, continuing to play felt devoid of any passion.
"Don't worry, even though we've left Myth Studio, all of us from the Fifth Squad are still here. I will invest in restructuring our studio and create a myth that belongs to us!" Lufeng said passionately, both comforting Qiu Han and giving himself a long-term goal.
Climax, Qin Shou, and Qiu Han were once again stirred with interest, but Qiu Han still felt uneasy: "How can I accept your money? Besides, you don't have enough funds to support our living expenses!"
"Yeah, boss, just take care of my food and lodging; talking about money feels too distant!" Climax quickly added.
"Second Brother, Fourth is right!" Qin Shou chimed in.
Lufeng couldn't help but smile: "You guys are overthinking it. I won't guarantee you a base salary, but I will take care of your food and lodging. Everything you earn in the game will be distributed by me. I will archive the value of what you obtain and record it, distributing it as your salary each month. As long as you work harder than before, your salary will not be less than five thousand. We'll discuss the specifics later! Now go pack your things!"
"Okay!" Qiu Han felt reassured and went back to pack his belongings, believing that Lufeng would lead him down a bright path.
Climax and Qin Shou casually nodded and also went back to pack.
Watching everyone leave, Lufeng felt an increase in pressure. The future living expenses of everyone rested on his shoulders; if he couldn't earn his first pot of gold in Asking Heaven, life would become difficult.
However, that wasn't the main concern. He also had to be wary of Night Wolf. For now, with Old Wolf's protection, Night Wolf couldn't make any big moves. They only needed Lufeng to collapse under Wen Tian's influence. In Night Wolf's eyes, after Lufeng left Myth Studio, he lost a significant amount of Handmade items and gems; any chance of standing out again seemed like a fantasy. All they had to do was wait.
With this thought in mind, for the time being, he was free from worries about Night Wolf and could focus on improving everyone's skills. To earn more rewards, they had to participate in today's Martial Arts Tournament; being low-key was no longer an option. Winning such competitions was the only way to gain more rewards.
Lufeng had very few belongings and packed up in less than ten minutes. After returning to the living room, he found that Climax and the others had also prepared their luggage; only Wang Xiaojing and Murong Xiaoxiao were still packing.
Lufeng, Climax, Qiu Han, and Qin Shou shared a similar smile. All four had two-character names and lived in the same dormitory at B University. Their interactions were quite harmonious. Since Climax's father cut off his financial support, he had become more amicable towards Qiu Han and was better able to understand some of Qiu Han's behaviors. This development gave Lufeng hope; as long as everyone worked together, there was no obstacle they couldn't overcome.
Before long, Wang Xiaojing and the others had packed their luggage. Wang Xiaojing had the most belongings, with two suitcases full of clothes. With the help of security from the Wang family, they left the studio and headed to Wang Xiaojing's apartment near B University.
Wang Xiaojing's apartment was located in the University Bay Community near B University. The environment inside was quite elegant; it was a special place for Wang Xiaojing during her time at school. This apartment was a gift from Aunt Wang before she enrolled. After she became best friends with Xiaoxiao, she rarely visited this little nest.
Everything in the room had been arranged before Wang Xiaojing and the others arrived. As soon as they entered, they were taken aback: everyday furniture, kitchen utensils, a sofa, refrigerator, air conditioning, microwave—everything one could need was there. The two bedrooms were very spacious; although it was described as a two-bedroom apartment with a living room and kitchen, it occupied 100 square meters, showcasing its size. Each bedroom had its own bathroom, and there was also a shared bathroom outside the living room for guests, along with a small balcony for drying clothes.
Both rooms contained two beds. Lufeng was unsure which room to choose but ultimately followed Wang Xiaojing's arrangements, unaware that his happy life was about to begin.
After moving their things in, the security from the Wang family left with a smile. Seeing this, Lufeng curiously asked, "How much tip did you give them?"
"One thousand!" Wang Xiaojing replied nonchalantly.
Lufeng was left speechless: "What? One thousand?"
Wang Xiaojing shrugged: "Yeah, what's the problem?"
Lufeng couldn't help but feel exasperated: "Oh my goodness! How am I supposed to support you in the future? They just moved your stuff and you gave them a thousand? If I had known, I would have come myself... Also, my luggage is all in your room now; I still have to move it myself later!"
"Move what? It didn't cost you anything; why are you worried? From now on, you will share a room with me and Xiaojing. I’ll sleep with Xiaojing while you get your own bed; the three of them will share one room," Wang Xiaojing quickly arranged.
Lufeng opened his mouth in disbelief: "This... this isn't right..."
Wang Xiaojing chuckled lightly and declared: "That's how it is. If you don't want to live like this, you can squeeze in with those three. But after this, don't expect to come into my room!"
Seeing Wang Xiaojing so carefree, Lufeng also stopped being coy: "Everything will follow the leader's arrangements!"
"Giggle~" Wang Xiaojing felt triumphant and laughed charmingly.
Seeing Wang Xiaojing's expression, Lufeng felt that his future days would not be easy. If this Little Demon tempted him with Xiaoxiao around, it would truly be a hardship for little Lufeng.
After organizing everything, it was still not yet eleven o'clock, and the efficiency was evident. Subsequently, Lufeng quickly held a small team meeting, gathering everyone in the living room.
"Ahem~"
Lufeng cleared his throat and simply said, "From now on, this place will be our home. We will continue the assessments we had at Myth Studio. Everything will be managed by Xiaojing. From now on, the six of us will be a team and also an independent studio. The funds will be managed by Xiaojing, while I will handle other arrangements. Gao Chao, Qiu Han, and Qin Shou will wash their own clothes, and Xiaoxiao will arrange the meals."
"So what will our studio be called?" Qin Shou asked curiously.
Lufeng thought for a moment and continued, "We have only one goal: to improve our skills while earning more money. Asking Heaven is a gold mine, and we are the miners. We aim to create a myth belonging to the six of us within Asking Heaven. Although this dream may be difficult to achieve, as long as we are willing to work hard, nothing is impossible. Our mission is to create a myth that belongs to us six. So how about we call our studio 'Create Myths'?"
"Creating our myth sounds good! Let's go with Create Myths! I believe our leader can definitely achieve our common goal!" Gao Chao echoed.
Lufeng nodded and encouraged, "We will grow together and create our own myth!"
