Certainly, Song Ting noticed her refusal. However, he opted to remain silent, fixing his gaze upon Song Yin. Though his expression remained neutral, it was intimidating enough to unnerve anyone who faced it.
Under the mounting pressure, Song Yin found it increasingly difficult to endure. She lowered her head, unable to meet Song Ting’s gaze. Over time, beads of sweat formed on her forehead.
Unable to withstand the pressure any longer, Song Yin cried out, “I’ll apologize ngnt away.”
With that, she abruptly turned and fled from the study, shutting the door behind her. No matter how hard the servant knocked, she refused to open it.
Song Ting approached and commented, “Let her be alone for a while. She likely can’t process everything at the moment.”
Song Ting assumed that Song Yin couldn’t come to terms with the fact that her friend had deceived her. Little did he know that what Song Yin truly couldn’t accept was the requirement to apologize. To her, her ability to acquire a cheating device was sufficient. Apologizing to those poor individuals seemed unnecessary.
Yet, since Song Ting had already made his stance clear, Song Yin didn’t dare to lie in his presence. She could only lock herself in her room and postpone any potential apologies.
Meanwhile, in the chat room, Song Fan was growing increasingly irritated with Xu Yuan’s ceaseless chatter. She marveled at how someone could talk so much and heap praises upon her skills in every sentence, each compliment coming from a different angle.
Unable to bear it any longer, Song Fan expressed her frustration in the chat, saying, “Don’t you think you talk way too much?”
This comment caught Xu Yuan off guard, interrupting his excited state. His companions sitting beside him couldn’t help but burst into laughter. It was a clear instance of mockery.
“Finally, someone said it. I’ve long felt that Xu Yuan talks too much,” Xiao Lei chuckled.
Xia Rui held his stomach and remarked, “Sunflower is more direct, isn’t she?” “But the way she talks is really reminiscent of Gu Chen,” Qi Shuo sighed.
“Are you guys finished laughing now?” Xu Yuan’s face betrayed his exasperation.
Upon hearing Xu Yuan’s words, the others managed to stifle their laughter. However, at this juncture, Gu Chen posted a message on the screen, stating, “He really does talk a lot.”
Unable to contain himself any longer, Xu Yuan stood up and exclaimed, “Can
Gu Chen just keep quiet?”
However, Xu Yuan’s outburst was limited to the confines of his room. He obediently typed, “Can we change the subject?”
Song Fan, noticing that something was amiss, inquired, “Do you all know each other outside of the game?”
The way they bantered with each other suggested that they were more than just in-game friends.
Gu Chen replied, “We grew up together.”
Xiao Lei quickly proposed, “Since we’ve just experienced such a tremendous victory, should we meet up and celebrate?”
He was really curious about Sunflower’s true appearance, although it doesn’t really matter considering her incredible skills. Her abilities are more important than her looks.”
Also, upon thinking about Gu Chen’s high regard for Sunflower, he couldn’t help but express his desire to meet in person.
Song Fan found Xiao Lei’s suggestion quite reasonable. After all, meeting offline was common among in-game friends. After considering the synergy they had in the game, she thought about their teamwork and replied, “I’m currently in A City. Do you think it’s convenient to meet?”
“We’re all in A City too,” Xu Yuan replied enthusiastically.
Since they were all in the same location, arranging a meeting was straightforward. Xiao Lei immediately started discussing a suitable time in the chat room, and Song Fan suggested that a weekend would work for her.
Xia Rui, looking at their chat, quipped, “We can’t take Sunflower to eat at roadside stalls, can we?”
It wasn’t that they disliked roadside stalls, but now that Sunflower had become a deity in their eyes, they felt that they should treat her with the utmost respect.
Qi Shuo suggested, “Why don’t we book a private room at Phoenix Restaurant?
That way, we can ensure our privacy.”
After hearing Qi Shuo’s idea, the others found it sensible. After all, they were all considered heirs from well-off families, and the media often sought to photograph them. So, taking precautions was wise.
Upon seeing unanimous agreement, Qi Shuo proceeded to call Duan Feng. Since he believed he was in charge of Song Fan’s case, Duan Feng graciously arranged a private room for them.
At that moment, they had no inkling of just how momentous this gathering would turn out to be.
Song Fan powered down the computer, stood up, and headed downstairs. She made her way to Star Technologies’ building with all haste, where Hua Yue was waiting for her at the entrance.
She rushed toward her with excitement. However, as Song Fan embraced her, she couldn’t help but remark, “Have you lost weight recently?”
