Three days of game time have passed, leaving 27 days until the gold coins and Renminbi can be exchanged at an equivalent rate.
The commercial value of Asking Heaven is undeniable. This has been analyzed not only by sociologists, economists, and internationally renowned assessment companies but also supported by major banks, allowing for this currency's equivalent exchange, achieving a value higher than Q Coin.
After exiting the virtual world, Lufeng organized the daily Dungeon tasks as usual and prepared materials for the next day, fully immersing himself in this professional work.
In the upcoming activities, Dungeon and fixed Dungeon, Lufeng was almost completely familiar with them. To this day, Lufeng had not lost to Aunt Wang; whether in team strength or individual attributes, they were about equal. However, Lufeng knew that after reaching level 45, once a large number of top-tier Handmade equipment emerged, these wealthy players would regain their dominance.
However, this speed of improvement provided by Asking Heaven allowed for a one-month buffer period. During this month, wealthy players would not spend huge amounts on high-priced gold coins from the black market; aside from necessary expenses like guild establishment fees, no one would do something so foolish.
Lufeng analyzed the month ahead; with Aunt Wang's help, he would definitely not fall behind those wealthy players and would have the necessary Handmade items. But after a month, Aunt Wang would also be critically limited; after all, there were many people richer than Aunt Wang in this world. Such a soulful game attracts both the rich and the poor to play. Therefore, Lufeng needed to rely on his own strength to earn the equipment and pets he needed.
Lufeng thought about many things; no country has absolute fairness. A communist society will always be a longing for beautiful things, just like a loser falling in love with a goddess—there will never be a connection. Even in a virtual world, survival of the fittest applies; without ability or financial resources, one cannot gain status or attract beautiful women anywhere.
With ability comes wealth naturally. Lufeng now eagerly hoped to complete his Gathering Qi proficiency so that he could unleash skills and achieve efficient attack effects.
Lufeng knew this was a gradual process; the final result of organizing everything was that he could not waste each day's Life-and-Death Chess Game, which was the fastest way to enhance his Vital Energy Control Technique.
"Knock knock!"
A series of knocks on the door.
Lufeng glanced at the time and smiled wryly; it had already been over ten minutes.
When he opened the door, it was still that stunning face. He didn't know when she had learned Wang Yuyan's charm. She slightly parted her lips and smiled: "Lufeng, it's time to eat... stop playing with yourself!"
Just a second ago, Lufeng had indeed been captivated by Wang Xiaojing's allure; her last sentence completely shattered his fantasies about love.
"Playing with myself is so last season; my realm has already transcended—I can let the bullets fly!" Lufeng replied with a lewd smile.
Wang Xiaojing pouted her red lips, "You rogue, why are you learning from Gao Chao? By the way, those three haven't come out yet. They can't really be searching for that beauty, can they?"
Lufeng shook his head. He couldn't care less about them. If he got too involved, others might think Lufeng lived by the sea—always meddling in everything, even in people's private matters.
"That—Xiaojing—"
Lufeng hesitated, unsure of how to start. He could only change the subject: "Where's Xiaoxiao?"
"She’s not eating today. Didn't she just arrive? I thought you knew everything about her!"
Lufeng: "..."
Seeing Lufeng's expression, Wang Xiaojing felt that he had a lot to say to her.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" Wang Xiaojing asked with concern.
Lufeng shook his head again, struggling for a moment before asking the question that had been on his mind: "Why are you so nice to me? I'm just a poor kid who doesn't deserve you. Besides, I'm an orphan; apart from Xiaoxiao and Director Hu, no one has ever treated me this well. Can I speak honestly? I don't believe in love at first sight. Moreover, we've only known each other for a few days. How could you possibly like me?"
Wang Xiaojing was taken aback at first and found it hard to speak, but she still expressed her feelings: "It's not like; it's love. Loving someone doesn't need a reason. I just know that at the right time, I met the right you. This is the happiness bestowed upon me by heaven. Although I haven't personally experienced all of life's ups and downs, I can feel your greatness through Xiaoxiao's inner world. To be honest, it’s your deep love for Xiaoxiao that attracted me. Throughout college, Xiaoxiao always told me stories about you. You're just as great and selfless as my brother. So, I believe you are the right person for me in this life. I don’t want you to be just a passerby in my life; I trust my judgment and don’t care about your current status. Also, I won’t deliberately tie you down; as long as you have me in your heart, I hope to accompany you alongside Xiaoxiao!"
After hearing Wang Xiaojing's heartfelt confession, Lufeng was completely stunned, his heart racing. How could he be so lucky to experience such a thing? It felt cliché but also so real.
Soon enough, Lufeng relaxed and smiled slightly: "Thank you for your trust. I've decided... I don’t want to be just a chapter in your life; I want to be the perfect ending of your story. Let’s go eat now, my wife~"
After saying this, Lufeng pulled Wang Xiaojing into an embrace.
"You scared me! You were speaking so hesitantly; I thought you were going to reject me!" Wang Xiaojing said angrily yet playfully.
Three seconds later, Wang Xiaojing pushed Lufeng away and added, "It's still early; I'm not that easygoing. You're still under evaluation; I can't let you get carried away!"
Lufeng: "..."
Just then, Qin Shou entered the living room and saw Wang Xiaojing breaking free from Lufeng's embrace. He quickly turned around and went back to his room, laughing, "I didn't see anything; you two continue!"
"Come back!" Lufeng called out to Qin Shou and then asked, "Why have you been gone so long while Gao Chao has been admiring the beauties? Were you...?"
Qin Shou rolled his eyes, looking helpless. "Am I that kind of person? Although I'm a bit sleazy, I'm not that desperate or shy. Boss... why is my image in your mind so terrible?"
"Then what were you doing? Lufeng is busy organizing our upgrade direction every day; are you really that diligent?" Wang Xiaojing asked flatly.
Hearing Wang Xiaojing's words, Lufeng suddenly realized, feeling a jolt in his heart. Everything he did was known to Xiaojing. She was truly a smart yet complicated woman—clearly not spoiled like a young lady, yet still putting on a show for others.
Feeling uncomfortable under Wang Xiaojing's gaze, Qin Shou slowly explained, "I was researching how to improve Sunglasses Cat's Insight. My Sunglasses Cat is currently at 2200 Quality. If I can raise it to 10, it will be over 3000 points. Its attack won't be worse than an ordinary mouse before level 75."
Seeing Qin Shou seriously studying these game mechanics, Lufeng couldn't help but praise him, "Good job! You're finally the third one in our group to get into work mode."
"Third?" Qin Shou was taken aback and then asked, "Among the four of us in the dormitory, I admit the boss got into it first, but I should be considered second, right?"
Lufeng shook his head in denial. "The first isn't me!"
"Then who else could it be?" Wang Xiaojing asked curiously at the same time as Qin Shou.
Lufeng slowly replied, "Qiu Han!"
"Qiu Han?" both Wang Xiaojing and Qin Shou exclaimed in unison, their expressions filled with confusion.
Seeing their reactions was something Lufeng had anticipated. He explained, "You both pay too little attention to this shy guy. Although he is reserved, he craves recognition more than anyone else. That's what he desires. Can't you see his efforts?"
After thinking for a moment, Wang Xiaojing shook her head and said, "I really hadn't noticed that."
"I can't see it either!" Qin Shou echoed.
"Uh..." Lufeng paused and continued to explain, "Qiu Han is not good at expressing himself. After playing for so long, he has remained silent, but he is the most hardworking. Although I haven't seen his efforts, he managed to level all six of his mind techniques to level 20 first. Where do you think his experience comes from? Later, when I asked you all to go back to the sect to upgrade your mind techniques, he already had three mind techniques at level 30!"
Qin Shou was shocked: "No way? That's amazing! Wow, I'm impressed. His mind techniques are so much higher than mine, yet our levels are the same!"
Hearing Lufeng's words, Wang Xiaojing felt a jolt in her heart; it seemed to make sense.
"Hey, boss, how did you know that?" Qin Shou snapped back to reality and asked in confusion.
Lufeng shrugged and casually replied, "With just one skill enhancement from you, I can tell what skill you're using. Adding in the damage makes it easy to guess the mind technique level. Now that Asking Heaven is so comprehensive, I can see your attacks and skill effects clearly. So it's clear that Qiu Han is deliberately suppressing his own level. On the other hand, Qiu Han has never mentioned any requests to me, yet he has been silently putting in effort... I think he should learn to step out on his own. With his personality, he will definitely become a powerful Tianshan!"
"So I can only be considered the second person to enter a professional state. Qin Shou, work hard and unleash your gaming spirit; I believe in you all. As for Gao Chao, the rich second-generation who is out of resources, I can't say much. After all, his family situation is what it is; I can't have too many demands on him. As long as he knows he's working and lives up to that guaranteed five thousand, that's enough. But you and Qiu Han, I hope you both will be like me—if you're going to do it, do it well. There's no best; there's only better. Keep it up!" Lufeng continued to encourage them.
"Let's go!" Qin Shou strongly echoed. At that moment, he began to feel deep gratitude for this boss who had always supported and helped him.
Wang Xiaojing was deeply moved by Lufeng's words and became even more certain that Lufeng was the right person she had encountered in her life. She struggled to control her emotions and then said, "It's time to eat. Qin Shou, go call Gao Chao; Lufeng, you go call Qiu Han. I've got something in my eye; I'll head down and wait for you."
At that moment, Qiu Han was quietly shedding tears behind the door; he happened to overhear their conversation. His feelings of loyalty towards Lufeng deepened once again as he silently vowed: Lufeng, you will always be my boss. I won't hold you back; thank you! I will not let you down!
