Chapter 302 – Qin Xiaowei Under House Arrest
"Is his name really Lin Jichen?"
Yan Ruyu still held her phone, carefully examining the photo on the screen, as if she couldn't quite believe it.
Liu Xiazi snatched the phone and hugged it to her chest, her face full of jealousy. "Cousin, what do you mean by this? Are you trying to steal my idol too?"
Yan Ruyu quickly explained, "It's just that he looks so familiar, like someone I know."
Suspicious, Liu Xiazi asked, "Are you saying he looks like the guy you have a crush on?"
Yan Ruyu's face turned red, and she nodded.
"No way! What's the name of the guy you have a crush on?" Liu Xiazi jumped up from her chair.
"His name is also Lin Jichen."
"Damn, damn! Sis, you know Lin Jichen? You know the Sword God? Is this for real?" Liu Xiazi was beyond excited.
So her cousin knew the real Lin Jichen, which meant her idol was in the same city!
Thinking of this, Liu Xiazi was overjoyed, so excited she almost passed out on the spot.
Yan Ruyu said, "I'm not sure, but the photo looks a lot like the Lin Jichen I know. But I've only met him a few times, and the style and aura in the photo are completely different, so I can't be certain."
"It must be him! How could there be such a coincidence? Someone you know just happens to be named Lin Jichen? By the way, what does he look like in real life? Is he handsome?" Liu Xiazi asked eagerly.
Yan Ruyu nodded, and Liu Xiazi became even more convinced. She started dancing around like a madwoman.
"Hahaha, I'm so lucky! This must be fate! I was so close to my idol all along. No, no, cousin, I'm going to your school tomorrow to see him in person!"
Yan Ruyu was exasperated. "Please, tomorrow is Saturday, the school is closed."
"Really? Then I'll come next Monday. Oh no, I have to wait two days to see my idol, this is torture! I'm definitely not going to sleep tonight. Sis, tell me more about him. Besides being handsome, what else is he like? Is he a good person? Does he have a nice voice? Does he have a girlfriend? Does he..."
Liu Xiazi had completely forgotten about teaching Yan Ruyu how to play the game, her mind entirely focused on Lin Jichen, bombarding Yan Ruyu with questions.
Yan Ruyu was so annoyed her head was about to explode. She quickly escaped into her bedroom, but Liu Xiazi chased after her.
The two sisters chatted all night...
***
Lin Jichen had no idea that his number one fan from Tale of Immortal was eagerly waiting to meet him.
This loneliness and tedium were something current players couldn't comprehend.
Sometimes, breaking through a small realm could take days, tens of days, or even months.
The higher the realm, the longer the seclusion.
Before the world merger, Lin Jichen had already reached the peak of Divine Transformation.
But it took him five whole years to break through to the Enlightenment Realm.
During those five years, he spent at least two years in seclusion.
So Lin Jichen, long accustomed to this state, wasn't bothered by the tedious flying.
Moreover, it wasn't so bad now. With the gaming pod, he could listen to online music while flying, adding a bit of fun to the boring journey.
At his current speed, it would take Lin Jichen at least two more days to reach his destination.
Just then, the gaming pod's phone rang.
Lin Jichen continued flying while answering the call.
It was Qin Xiaowei.
"Sister Xiaowei, what's up? Are you so eager to talk to Tang Tang because you're almost back?"
Lin Jichen said with a smile.
However, on the other end, Qin Xiaowei's voice sounded tired and sad.
"Little Chen, I might not be able to come back for a while. Could you please take care of Tang Tang for me a bit longer?"
Lin Jichen felt something was off. "What's wrong? Did the company give you a last-minute assignment?"
Qin Xiaowei let out a bitter laugh. "It's a long story. I can't even leave the Capital City right now."
"What happened?" Lin Jichen sensed trouble.
Qin Xiaowei sighed. "I was planning to come back after the music festival, but a rich kid from the Capital took a liking to me. He insisted I have dinner and drinks with him. I refused and even slapped him. Now he's threatening me. I have to hide in the Capital City for now."
Lin Jichen frowned. "Didn't your company help you?"
"They tried, but it was useless. That guy's family has a lot of influence in the Capital. My company is just a subsidiary here, and the person in charge doesn't dare to provoke him. I'm just a small singer, so they told me to find a place to hide until he calms down. He even took my ID."
Qin Xiaowei's voice was full of helplessness.
