Chapter 418 - Level Up

The mage and swordsman entered the forest together and began to slay some monsters in the forest. Their action triggered another quest and soon, a high-level boss appeared in anger.

The two moved quickly to fight this big boss. General Huo swung his sword around to attack the big boss while using his shield for defense. Meanwhile, Shadow stood at a distance away ad cast some magic spell t attack the monster.

Seeing that the swordsman's health was dropping fast, Shadow threw a high-level potion to General Huo to help him.

After evading the monster's attack, Shadow stood a distance away and cast a spell for the special move. The teammates worked together and attack the monster at the same time. The boss's health decreased greatly. General Huo swung his sword one more time and the boss finally screamed in agony before he fell on the ground.

"We did it..." Huo Yun Chen looked at the screen in disbelief. This was their third attempt to kill this monster. They had thought that if they failed again, they would have to log in another day and asked Little Star to aid them as their healer.

However, their combo moves had finally killed the monster.

Huo Yun Chen laughed happily when he saw the rare materials in his backpack. He glanced at the person beside him and smiled. "Xia Yu, you're really great."

Xia Yu replied to him with a chuckle.

"It seemed that you have leveled up quite a bit as well," Huo Yun Chen commented.

"Mhmm... After I quit my job, I have more time to log in and level up."

Huo Yun Chen sighed, feeling slightly jealous that Xia Yu could play games while he will continue to get busy after he return to Capital City.

However, when he recalled her quarrel with her mother earlier that morning, he realized that Xia Yu deserved some off time to play games.

He stared at his phone screen absentmindedly and spoke, "That's right, I heard from the company that there will be an event that required a CP to work together next week. Let's exchange contact numbers. It will be easier for us to contact each other."

Her movement froze for a brief second. Xia Yu hesitated for a few seconds before she finally nodded.

Once they are done, Xia Yu stared at the man's contact for a few seconds before she quickly switched the screen back to the game.

She lowered her head and let her hair cover half of her face. Her heart was palpating and her face reddened.

Xia Yu could not believe that she had Huo Yun Chen's private number.

It seemed that the longer she spend her time with this man, the dangerous it would be for her.

When he was on stage, she could only watch him from afar and liked him quietly. He had always liked him as a celebrity. But now that she had actually met him and interacted with him. They sat side by side and killed monsters together. Glancing at him, Xia Yu realized that she liked him even more.

Her hand gripped her phone tighter as she tried to control her feelings.

Unfortunately, once the sunrise and Huo Yun Chen's manager showed up, she will be forced to wake up from this dream and return to her real life.

As she thought about the people at her home, Xia Yu's mood began to plummet.

If only... she could freeze time and stay like this a little longer.

Huo Yun Chen's phone in his hand vibrated. Before Xia Yu could react and head out again, Huo Yun Chen walked out to answer the phone call.

"Brother Xiang," Huo Yun Chen spoke as the phone call was connected.

"Are you in a safe place?"

Huo Yun Chen glanced at Xia Yu who was looking at something on her phone before he answered. "Mhmm... Brother Xiang, you don't have to worry. I'm safe."

"My flight was supposed to depart in fifteen minutes," the manager said. "But it's raining heavily over here and our flight is delayed. I'm not sure when we'll arrive."

"Brother Xiang, don't worry. You can take your time."

The manager let out a long, exasperated sigh. Huo Yun Chen was supposed to be the least problematic talent in the company. He had never created troubles. Instead, whenever he was involved in a scandal, it was because someone had tried to play dirty tricks on him.

However, this time, Huo Yun Chen head to A City without telling him or his assistant. He had created havoc in A City but he still told him not to worry.

Before he could meet Huo Yun Chen and get him to his side, Brother Xiang would not be able to stop worrying. He wanted to scold this person, but he could only suppress his frustration.

"Just stay where you are and don't run around." Brother Xiang gave Huo Yun Chen a few more reminders before they hung up the call.

Taking a deep breath, Huo Yun Chen returned to the passenger's seat and froze when he realized that the driver's seat was tilted back slightly and Xia Yu had closed her eyes to sleep.

He closed the door gently and glanced at the time. He waved his hand before her eyes a few times and called her name But the girl continued to breathe peacefully.

A warm feeling surged in his heart as he thought of what Xia Yu had done for him. This girl had run around the city to look for him and now, she had to accompany him for his safety. It was not strange for her to be this tired.

Huo Yun Chen stared at her sleeping face for a while. Now that she was not putting that serious look on her face, Huo Yun Chen thought that Nurse Xia Yu was a little cute.

A crease appeared between her brow. Subconsciously, Huo Yun Chen stretched his hand to flatten at the crease, wondering what she was worried about in her dream.

Swiftly, he retracted his hand away and snapped out of his thought.

Fortunately, the girl did not wake up, or else, he would not know how he should explain his action.

Turning around to pick up her jacket that she had thrown at the back seat.

Just as he was about to cover her body with the jacket, Xia Yu suddenly opened her eyes to look at him. Huo Yun Chen suddenly realized that Xia Yu had a pair of clear and beautiful eyes.

His heartbeat accelerated but his body remain frozen in place.

Huo Yun Chen was aware that they were looking into each other for a long time but he could not make himself look away.

Suddenly, Xia Yu's lips tilted into a languid smile. At the thought that she was still in her dream, Xia Yu moved over and kissed the man in front of her on the corner of his lips.. Without realizing what she had done, Xia Yu closed her eyes and continued to sleep.
