WNSYM Chapter 75.1

Chapter 75.1 - The spring night is bitterly short

Mu Cheng’s third uncle did have one last move up his sleeve.

Right before he was at his wits’ end, he still wanted to take a large sum of investment capital from Mu Yifang’s company.

Luckily, the Ning family stopped him just in time.

“This business isn’t worth it, let’s just both take a step back and compromise …” Mu Cheng’s third uncle said on the phone.

Mu Cheng answered noncommittally, “It’s worth a thousand in gold to make me happy.”

“You’ll be losing out on a lot too. Just compromise and I’ll make it up to you.”

Mu Cheng continued slowly like he was teasing a cat, “You wanted to hurt Tang Xiao, so you should’ve been prepared for me to retaliate.”

“You’re doing all this for a Tang Xiao that has an ambiguous relationship with Ning Jing? Nephew, you really are big hearted.” Mu third uncle mocked.

Mu Cheng laughed coldly, “Third uncle, you really should’ve investigated clearly.”

Just like what Mu Cheng said, Mu third uncle, was bankrupt in a week.

The whole B city was shaken.

His whole company was closed for investigation and other related people were taken in too.

Mu Cheng and his sister were pushed into the public eye.

Along with them were Night Changan, but the two sides didn’t give a public response.

Mu Cheng came in and out mysteriously so reporters couldn’t catch him.

Mu Yifang was also good at fielding questions from reporters, so they couldn’t get a single word out of her.

As for Night Changan, they also kept their lips sealed.

Even when a fly tried to get in, they checked if there was a camera stuck to it.

Then quite a few people found out that even though Night Changan had begun filming a month ago, Tang Xiao, who was supposed to be at the set early, hadn’t appeared once.

-- Two best actors/actresses have already entered the set but Tang Xiao’s still missing.

-- Rumours say Tang Xiao’s acting like a diva, and there are suspicions that she’s getting swapped out.

-- She’s actually 9 months pregnant and secretly giving birth.

All different types of rumours swirled around as the media began spinning fanciful stories.

Chief Ning had also received various calls from gossip magazines.

The company and the PR team also fielded lots of calls.

They just had to keep up with excuses to brush them away.

As for the [disappeared], [diva], [9 months pregnant] Tang Xiao, at this time, was busy running away in game.

[Party] This emperor: Little Tang poem! Stand right there! I’ll teach you to have sticky fingers that like touching monsters! We wasted a whole day fighting them and suddenly you come up with this!

Tang Xiao didn’t even turn around before running away like crazy.

The whole group had been seated in front of their computers since 7am.

They fought the whole day against this mob before finally killing the monster and getting some loot.

Just as they opened up the chest, Tang Xiao jumped up first and exploded the chest into rubbish.

The best thing out of the chest was a dagger.

Alongside the dagger, a system generated message said, ‘The dagger Jing Ke wanted to use to assassinate King Qin’.

This wasn’t much but the most important thing was that Spirit Road’s producers had recently begun being a bit too creative.

Any teams that hit the jackpot and received this dagger, would then activate some in-game court officials, who would then try and kill the whole team as if they were assassins.

The whole group was furious.

It was okay if they didn’t end up getting anything worthwhile from the chest, but to then be chased to death by some NPCs who couldn’t be killed??

[Party] King calls me: This game is poisonous! I’m going to mail the producers some razor blades!

[Party] July: No, it’s what’s wrong with you and Su Muzhe? There are all sorts of rumours outside. And you said that you two were overseas, but you’re actually here playing games?

[Party] King calls me: This is called the spice of life, don’t you understand!!!! What’s so good about going overseas. The scenery in-game is just as good and varied, it’s also just as exciting!

[Party] Powerful hotpot: Next time you want to play games, don’t drag us along with you. I blanked for a moment and the next moment, I’m getting chased to death by a bunch of NPC’s, this isn’t a good influence.

[Party] King calls me: ……

TL note:

Jing Ke - famous would-be assassin of King Qin (first emperor of China), emphasis on ‘would-be’
