Master Qin's Real Young Lady Is Gorgeous And Flirty - Chapter 127
Chapter 127: Just A Craving For Cigarettes…
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Lying on the bed with her eyes open for quite a while, probably around half an hour or so, Nan Yan finally sat up.
She pushed aside the blanket and got out of bed, putting on her shoes and then her coat before heading outside.
“Brother?”
Where is he? Could he be in another bedroom?
The living room was dimly lit.
Nan Yan, guided by the moonlight from outside, walked to the switch and turned on the light.
The sudden brightness startled the man who had been lost in thought by the window.
Qin Lu pinched out the cigarette between his fingers and turned to look at her. “Little one, you woke up so soon?”
“Yeah, I’m not sleepy anymore.” Nan Yan walked over to him, glanced at the cigarette butts in the ashtray, and was a bit puzzled. “Brother, are you in a bad mood?”
“No…” Qin Lu softly denied, “Just a craving for cigarettes.”
His gaze, today, seemed a bit darker than usual, his voice also huskier.
An inexplicable kind of sensuality.
Nan Yan’s mind was filled with unconventional thoughts. Hearing his intoxicating voice, her face couldn’t help but flush.
“I’ll go back to my room now.”
Nan Yan was afraid that staying longer might cause trouble. After saying this, she walked straight out.
Qin Lu watched her leave, his gaze suddenly becoming even deeper and darker, absorbing all the light…
Back on her side, Nan Yan didn’t go back to sleep.
She turned on her computer and logged onto the Dark Realm website.
Old Master An’s health was not looking good. Although he had been rescued this time, the relapse of his old illness had caused severe damage to his already weak body. It was almost devastating.
However, as long as she was there, she wouldn’t let Old Master An leave so soon.
To heal his body, she needed quite a few precious herbs. Nan Yan didn’t feel like going out to search for them, so she placed an order on the Dark Realm website.
Even though the prices here were higher than outside, the quality was better.
Thinking that Cheng Yanzhao hadn’t delivered the medicine yet, she guessed they hadn’t found the necessary herbs.
After some thought, she messaged Cheng Yanzhao, asking him what they were still missing.
Cheng Yanzhao’s reply came quickly, almost within a minute of her sending the message.
He listed two herbs that he couldn’t find even after using the Cheng family’s channels.
[I’ll find these two. Send the other herbs to Jin City, and I’ll help Old Master
Cheng refine the medicine.]
Cheng Yanzhao: [Sure, thank you for your help, Miss Nan.]
Nan Yan: [You’re welcome.]
After replying to Cheng Yanzhao, Nan Yan ordered the two missing herbs and completed the order.
Originally, she had accumulated several thousand points, but buying these herbs had used up more than half of them.
Next time she wanted to buy something more valuable, her points might not be enough.
It seemed she needed to take on some tasks on the Dark Realm to make shopping easier in the future.
In the Dark Realm, shopping was done using points, and there were two ways to earn points.
One way was to convert real-world money into points at a certain ratio, depending on the exchange rate and the value of various countries’ currencies.
For example, in her country’s currency, one thousand yuan could be exchanged for one point.
The other way was to complete tasks to earn points.
The Dark Realm had a task section, and as long as a member registered as a mercenary, they could take on tasks from this section.
The tasks were matched to the mercenary’s level, with higher-level mercenaries eligible for higher-level tasks. However, high-level mercenaries could take on lower-level tasks, while low-level ones couldn’t take on higher-level tasks.
If someone wanted to take on higher-level tasks, they had to raise their level first.
Nan Yan’s smaller account hadn’t been registered as a mercenary before, but since she couldn’t use her main account for now and needed points, she registered now.
After the registration, Nan Yan received the lowest-level F-grade mercenary title.
She casually browsed through the task area.
There were quite a few F-grade tasks, and the point rewards varied based on the difficulty of the task.
The highest reward didn’t exceed a hundred points.
Nan Yan glanced through them and accepted a few tasks that weren’t too troublesome and wouldn’t take up much time.
With nothing else to do, she spent an hour and completed them, earning one thousand points and moving up to an E-level mercenary.
The requirement to move from F to E was completing ten tasks and earning one thousand points.
For a mercenary, this requirement wasn’t particularly difficult.
However, to go from F to E in just an hour was remarkable and attracted the attention of the Dark Realm management.
Manager A: “This ‘Diving Fish’ is too impressive. She not only completed over a dozen tasks within an hour but also with a one hundred percent success rate!”
Manager B: “Probably some big shot practicing with an alternate account.”
Manager C: “Who has nothing better to do than to use an alternate account instead of their main one?”
After all, the higher the mercenary level in the Dark Realm, the more privileges they had. Especially the S-level mercenaries, each action they took came at a high price.
Who would ignore a top-tier account and start from scratch with a new one?
Manager D: “Maybe she just wants to experience something new. As long as this account remains normal, we don’t need to worry about it. Let’s just keep an eye on it.”
Indeed, that was a reasonable assumption.
No matter how outstanding ‘Diving Fish’ seemed, she was ultimately still an E-level mercenary, not worth their excessive attention.
When she leveled up to a C-level or higher, then it would be worth keeping a closer watch..
Meanwhile, Nan Yan didn’t pay much attention to the shock her actions had brought to the management. After gaining over a thousand points, she logged out of the Dark Realm and went online to surf the internet.
At this point, An Muyao had become the target of public outrage.
From Nan Yan’s exposure until now, over six hours had passed, and An Muyao hadn’t responded in any way.
Her studio hadn’t issued any announcements either.
This silence was, without a doubt, tantamount to admitting the truth of the matter.
With An Muyao’s actions being so thoroughly exposed, she had no hope of whitewashing her reputation anymore.
Keyboard warriors’ furious curses, accusations, and mockery flooded An Muyao’s social media accounts, studio accounts, and even internet forums.
This time, An Muyao had no chance of making a comeback.
Nan Yan had expected this outcome long ago.
However, An Muyao’s silence was unexpected.
At this critical moment, when she should have been focusing on damage control and salvaging whatever she could, what was she doing?
At that moment, An Muyao was standing by Lu Lehua’s hospital bed.
She was still wearing the same clothes she had on during the live stream, her hair disheveled by her own hands, her eyes swollen like walnuts, and her face was as pale as paper.
As Lu Lehua looked at the daughter she had once been so proud of, her emotions had shifted from initial disbelief to a certain calm.
“Leave,” Lu Lehua’s heart felt as lifeless as ashes, unable to meet her gaze anymore. “From now on, you’re no longer my daughter. Go back to your original home.”
This was her final bond with An Muyao.
Otherwise, given what she had done, how could the An family easily forgive her?
“Mom, please don’t send me away! I know I was wrong, truly wrong…”
An Muyao was completely overwhelmed, her legs giving way, causing her to slide down from the chair to her knees before Lu Lehua..
