Chapter 72: An Unexpected Encounter with Tao Jingyu

  "Hey! Hey! Blue Universe brother, open the door!" Ying stood at the door of Blue Universe and Qiao Jia's room, impatiently knocking on the door. "Don't be busy being affectionate, the night view here is beautiful, let's go for a walk and have dinner together! If you don't open the door, Lian Xi and I will leave..."

  The door opened before he could finish speaking... It was Qiao Jia who came to open the door. "So loud, what's wrong with you? Alright, we've packed up, let's set off!"

  A few people strolled leisurely along the bustling pedestrian street, eating while walking, and the feeling of being out on a trip was really great...

  "Wait a minute! Look!" Ling Xi suddenly stopped in her tracks, pointing at the crowd ahead.

  "What's wrong, Lianxi? What did you see?" Qiaojia looked in the direction where Lianxi was pointing, but there was nothing except a large crowd and a row of snack stalls. "Lianxi, are you hallucinating..."

  "She's actually still alive? What a small world, and to think we'd run into her! Hmph." Ying Qianqian smiled faintly and shook her head, "Lian Xi, let's go. Let's just pretend we didn't see her... after all, we don't have any relationship with her..."

  "You two are so strange, what's going on? What did you see?" Lan Yu was also confused.

  "It's Tao Jingya!" Lianxi's words shocked Lan Yu and Qiao Jia.

  "What? That new player from the last game, Tao Jingya? It's really impressive that she managed to survive!" Lan Yu silently praised... During the last game, Lan Yu and Qiao Jia didn't have much contact with Tao Jingya, and later they were separated, so it wasn't unusual that they suddenly met again.

  "It's true, the world is really small. But it's strange that in such a difficult game, only three players have died so far! I and Lan Yu were lucky to survive, and Tao Jingyao actually managed to survive as well... This is unbelievable."

  "There's nothing incredible about it! Qiao Jia, Lan Yu brother, have you forgotten? When I and Lian Xi rushed into the exit gate with a desperate mindset, Tao Jingyao was right behind us! It's only natural that she survived!" Ying's words were relentless, and he seemed to dislike this woman named Tao Jingyao. "Alright, let's not bother with her, let's go! We shouldn't let her ruin our mood..."

  "Alright then, let's just pretend we didn't see anything! With so many people around, she probably won't notice us either!"

  Four people continued to move forward, but Tao Jingya happened to see the four of them... To be specific, she saw Ying at a glance in the crowd.

  "Ying!" Tao Jingya stretched out her arm, waving it hard and squeezing through the crowd to reach Ying's side. "It really is you! I thought it was just a dream!"

  Ying didn't bother to respond, someone like Ying who had seen countless people, how could he not see the hidden schemes beneath Jing's beautiful appearance? Ying disliked people with ulterior motives and naturally didn't want to bother with her, so he kept his distance.

  "Jingwa, it's really you!" Lianxi looked at Jingwa with a hint of embarrassment, possibly because she was too shy to greet her after seeing her just now, so her voice was very soft.

  "Ah, you're here too! And the two of you as well... what's your names again... Lan Yu and Qiao Jia, right?" Jing Ya enthusiastically greeted everyone, but in her heart, she knew that these four people had seen Ming Ming looking at her, yet they pretended not to notice. She could only suppress this anger and try not to show it.

  "How did you end up here?" Qiao Jia asked in puzzlement.

  "My home is just here!" As expected, this world is really too small...

  "We still have things to do, I'll take my leave first!" Ying said coldly, and then pulled Lian Xi's hand to walk away in the distance. Who knew that Tao Jingyao was so sticky, following closely behind them. It wasn't easy for Jingyao to meet her Prince Charming in real life, how could she possibly let him go!

  "Slow down! I can't keep up."

  For some reason, Qiao Jia suddenly felt annoyed with Tao Jingya too and thought to herself that she didn't want to follow them anymore. As she thought about it, she quickened her pace. But Jingya's persistence really made the four of them feel both helpless and admiring, and they finally stopped in their tracks.

  "Why do you always follow us? Is there something?"

  The cold attitude made Jingya feel very wronged, she didn't know what to say and stood there in a daze. Ying took this opportunity to shake off Jingya and turned around to leave.

  "Sorry! I just wanted to ask, why the people in my dream appeared in real life! That night I had a nightmare, with all four of you in it, and I didn't think much of it... But today I met you, exactly like in my dream, even your names are the same, and you actually know my name too... Is that really not a dream?!" Actually, these were the questions Jingyuan wanted to ask, but she more so hoped to hear Yining say a few more words.

  Jingyao's words made the four people's hearts 'thud' for a moment, originally they didn't want to recall the last game anymore, but Jingyao's question awakened the memories they wanted to seal away...

  "Tao, your home is in this city, you should be familiar with it. Is there a quiet place nearby where we can talk?" Lan Yu's voice was very gentle, making Qiao Jia feel uncomfortable. Ying also secretly glared at Lan Yu.

  "There's a park not far ahead, it's open 24 hours, at this time there shouldn't be anyone else around, let's go!" Jing said and walked to the front of the group, pulling Lanxiu's arm, "Follow me!"

  Tao Jingxiao secretly smiled, as long as she continued to cling to Lian Xi, Ying would only be able to follow behind honestly... She only cared about Ying, and as for the others, namely Lan Yu and Qiao Jia, it didn't matter whether they followed or not... Hehe, let's see how you shake me off!

  Originally, when they were shopping, Qiao Jia was always holding her own arm, the four of them chatting and laughing, eating delicious food, it was so much fun. But now Lian Xi doesn't have any major complaints, but she's also stopped speaking. Ying's expression became very unnatural, Qiao Jia suddenly let go of her hand and walked coldly to Lan Yu's side.

  In an instant, Lan Yu suddenly realized that his good intentions this time seemed to have really done something wrong! Lan Yu secretly regretted in his heart, blaming himself for being too talkative. Others didn't say anything, but he had to go and make a fuss. Now thinking about it, it's really better to do less rather than more...

  This suddenly disrupted everyone's interest, and the joyful atmosphere became solemn in an instant...

  But it's too late for regrets, and there's no other way out of this situation. Originally, I wanted to get rid of Tao Jingyao, but now it seems like that's not going to happen. Because she has been tightly holding onto Lian Xi, from the moment Tao Jingyao took Lian Xi's arm, even a simple girl like Qiao Jia could see her intentions...

  Several people had no choice but to silently follow behind...
