Chapter 248: Chapter 242 You ‘re Too Bad

Translator: 549690339

Emily hesitated for a moment before agreeing without refusal. If it had been the old Emily, she definitely would not have supported the relationship between Finn Lewis and Kay Lee. In her eyes, rich men like Finn were hardly upstanding characters. Of course, the idea of Kay ending up with an ordinary man was unlikely. However, Emily believed that Kay should be with a man deserving of her.

Bryski Miller, whom Emily had previously thought highly of due to his seemingly decent behavior, fell out of her favor after everything that had happened. She lost respect for him when he went to such extremes, just because the matchmaking didn’t work out.

Even though she couldn’t change anything, she couldn’t bear to watch Kay step into a fire pit. Following the series of events that had taken place, Emily’s views on a lot of men had changed. All those men who had pranced around Kay, including those wealthy heirs and handsome celebrity men, disappeared collectively when Kay was being targeted.

Some had made phone calls, but those were merely to offer condolences. They took no practical action, paid mere lip service, and said they’d help Kay find out information. However, ultimately, it was they who fell silent. Even those who had vowed lifelong commitments to her had dared not offer words of support. It was as if they didn’t even know Kay.

It wasn’t until Finn Lewis showed up that Emily, like Kay, realized that there had been someone supporting them quietly all along. He had never shown his face, never made any grand promises, and Kay didn’t even know who he was. What he did, though, was to spring into action.

He not only quietly solved Kay’s biggest problem but also didn’t jump into the spotlight and reveal his true identity after doing so. If it hadn’t been for Bryski’s provocation, Kay might not even know about Finn’s existence until now. And even when she knew him, she was still oblivious to many of the things he had done for her.

Emily had learned of the many things Finn had done from Kay. These things only made her believe even more that Finn was the man who truly deserved Kay.

That’s why she readily supported Kay and Finn. However, what she did not expect was that Finn could actually cook. Seeing that he had bought those ingredients, however, assumedly demonstrated his confidence in his cooking skills. Though she wanted to offer to cook instead and say that he’s the one who cooked it, she didn’t voice this suggestion in the end.

“Well, I’ll clean up the kitchen and get things ready for you, Finn,” said Emily, laughing after a moment’s thought.

Finn nodded and left the kitchen. Kay Lee hadn’t emerged from her room yet, probably embarrassed about what had just happened. Finn didn’t rush her. Instead, he began looking around the living room. The apartment wasn’t too large, a three-bedroom, two-living-room layout, probably about 150 to 160 square meters.

The apartment was rented by them. As far as he knew, Kay had sold all the properties in her name except the one next to Finn’s villa. This apartment was a temporary landing spot. The decor was clearly done by the previous owner.

Leaning against her bedroom door, Kay felt a mix of embarrassment and annoyance, How could she forget to put on her underwear? She had been so absorbed in grooming and gaming that she had completely forgotten about it. Even though Finn hadn’t seen anything and there had been a layer of clothing between them, Kay felt weak all over when she thought about the way Finn had looked at her earlier.

After a long while, she realized that staying in the room wouldn’t solve anything. With effort, she collected herself and, blushing, opened the door and stepped out. She had changed out of her earlier sleepwear and put on a T-shirt and shorts, so she wouldn’t have to worry about any wardrobe malfunctions.

When she stepped out of the bedroom and saw Finn sitting on the couch, she couldn’t help but blush again. She lowered her voice and said, “Do you want a drink? I can get it for you.”

“No need. Emily’s already gotten one for me,” Finn replied lightly.

Kay blushed even deeper and lowered her head, not daring to look at Finn. Finn almost laughed. He hadn’t thought the strong and resilient Kay he saw in public had such a girlish side to her. He smiled subtly, stood up and said, “I don’t get you. I wanted to take you out for dinner, but you’re so lazy you didn’t even want to step out the door. If you keep this up, you’re going to turn into a

homebody.”

“So what if I’m a homebody? I basically don’t like going out when I don’t have work. I’d rather stay at home,” said Kay, relieved that the topic had shifted.

“What level are you at in the game now?” Finn quickly diverted the topic of conversation to their game.

“I’ve just reached level 25.” Kay sounded both casually dismissive and proud.

“Level 25? How did you level up so fast?” Finn was genuinely surprised. The game server had been opened at noon yesterday. The top players were around level 25 to 27. Kay was already in that leading queue.

“I completed a hidden task. It gave a lot of experience points, so I quickly leveled up to 25,” Kay said cheerfully. Finn was rendered speechless. Hidden tasks… These only became a thing after Olivia’s calculations. The hidden tasks were indeed hidden. Once someone completed a task, no others could do it. The tasks also caused certain changes on the game map. Furthermore, there was an honor roll in the game, accessible to all players, recording all significant events on the server. The entries on this honor roll were permanent.

It was a way for players to make a name for themselves, but getting their names on it was no easy feat.

“You’re really lucky,” said Finn Lewis, unable to contain his admiration. You see, these hidden tasks, with their trigger probabilities and conditions, were all designed by Olivia Thatcher, and were exceptionally challenging. These tasks had nothing to do with levels, although some tasks did have level restrictions. However, reaching a certain level didn’t guarantee that the task would be triggered.

But it was surprising that Kay Lee could already trigger hidden tasks. You could say that her luck was defying the heavens! Remember, she’s just an average player. Finn certainly didn’t cheat for her, or anything like that. Even her gaming character was unknown to Yuri Johnson.

“Well, of course,” said Kay Lee. “And just so you know, my gaming skills aren’t half bad either. And, by the way, we’re probably going to be the first team to clear a level-25 instance on this server this afternoon.” Kay, feeling pleased with herself, said.

“Really?” Finn asked, his voice filled with evident praise.

“Of course, it’s true! You’re clearly not believing me!” Kay replied with confidence.

“Is that so? Let me see.” Finn rose from the sofa, speaking.

“Alright.” Kay hesitated for a moment before agreeing. She then led Finn to her bedroom. Walking into Kay’s room, Finn couldn’t help but feel a little smug. He wondered how many would believe him if he took a picture of the room and claimed it to be Kay’s boudoir.

Kay’s room was a bit untidy, but there weren’t any scattered undergarments or anything. Some stuffed toys were set on her bed. The feature that attracted Finn the most was the several hundred butterfly specimens on one side of the wall. Each specimen was sealed, neatly hanging on the wall. It looked like a large butterfly exhibit, probably more comprehensive than some public exhibitions.

“Excuse the mess. Make yourself comfortable,” said Kay, her face turning slightly red.

“I thought you would be playing the game in the study, I didn’t expect you to move them into the bedroom,” Finn laughed. “And this computer… You aren’t playing with Emily, are you?” He noticed another computer next to Kay’s.

“Nope, if I get disconnected, I use the other computer to reconnect directly. I also have a secondary account set up for vending collectables. After all, who told you to make the outfits in the game so pretty, I hate it. I like a few of them but can’t seem to get the materials, so have to collect them,” Kay said somewhat frustratedly.

“Haha, is that right? Wait, I’ll give you an outfit,” Finn laughed heartily, then quickly claimed a seat next to Kay’s computer.

“Really? Which outfit?” Kay leaned in curiously. For female gamers, outfits are an irresistible topic, and Kay was no exception.

“What’s your game name?” Finn had already set special privileges for his account, Olivia Thatcher, so he didn’t need to wait in line. Hence, he quickly found Kay’s server and logged in.

“Lily Shorewood,” Kay reported her game ID. Finn quickly set up his gaming character and first added Kay as a friend.

Kay sat down beside Finn and accepted his friend request. “Huh, why aren’t you using your old ID?” Now, of course, Kay knew Finn’s old gaming ID.

“I’d be bothered constantly if I used that ID, but it doesn’t matter since nobody else can set that ID now,” Finn replied with a laugh. He had just picked a random ID: Flying Rice Cake.

“Hurry! What outfit are you going to give me? Let me see,” Kay leaned in with curiosity.

“No need, just wait to receive your gift.” Finn chuckled and quickly clicked on his computer, barging into a costume shop in Novice Village. He bought an outfit from them and chose to gift it. Immediately after, a system announcement rang out in the center of the computer screen.

“System: News shocks the world! The one and only artifact outfit, Phoenix Dance Soaring Dress, created by the late master tailor Lily Williamson, has appeared among people. The bearer of this artifact outfit will permanently have unrestricted access to descend to the world at any time. Phoenix Dance Soaring Dress has appeared. Dragon Soaring Cloud Armor will also appear.”

“System: News shocks the world! The one and only artifact outfit, Dragon Soaring Cloud Armor, created by the late master blacksmith Oliver Yeoman, has appeared among people. The bearer of this artifact outfit will permanently have unrestricted access to descend to the world at any time. Both Phoenix Dance Soaring Dress and Dragon Soaring Cloud Armor are now in the world! A pair of celestial companions may be gracing the world.”

rlkvvo system messages left the entire game in astonishment! Although the system messages were somewhat inscrutable, in essence, these were two outfits that anyone could see and buy in the game. However, they were also the only two outfits. More importantly, their asking price was an astronomical 1,0,000,000 Flame Nation coins, which horrified all the sisters and brothers who took fancy to these outfits. And now….someone actually bought them?!
