He Jin thought for a while, and decided to give something in return.

He sent a message to Fire: “hj2000,********, this is my username and password in this game.”

————

At first, Fire was startled, but soon, he burst out into a low laugh: “Why, are you really giving yourself to me, ah?”

Reading this, He Jin’s face instantly turned hot. He really did not mean it like that ah…

In fact, for him, to be able to meet an “old friend” who he had not seen for eight years, and one who had become a First Ranking Master in the whole server at that… it already felt like he won some big jackpot! And now, turned out that old friend actually still treated him so nicely, giving him a mount, sending him gold coins … He was so generous, which left He Jin with a constant feeling of guilt.

For this reason, he unconsciously gave his username and password to the other player. It was like a show of trust on his part. He also did this as a subtle way of telling Fire that-the gold coins you gave me were all put here, so if you want to take it back, you can still do it, even when I’m not online.

Although, soon after sending the message, He Jin also felt that he was being a little too impulsive. After all, his username and password were used for all of his online accounts, including emails, micro-blog, post bar, forum, etc. He Jin tried to comfort himself though, Fire doesn’t know about this, so he shouldn’t use this information to do anything strange… Right?

Fortunately, Fire didn’t tease him anymore, saying seriously instead: “Okay then, when you are not online, I will use the ‘follow’ option, so that I can help you to level up.”

He Jin felt a bit puzzled: “Is it really that urgent for me to start leveling? Can’t I just take it slow?” He was more interested in knowing more about the process of playing the game, than the thrill of upgrading fastly.

Fire Ruthless: “It’s not urgent, but maybe because I have been playing this game for a long time, so for me, doing system task is very boring. I think playing in a higher level is much more interesting. Also, don’t forget that the holographic version will come out in 20days. After it comes out, the playing process will be completely different than it is now, so if you want to experience it, you might as well just experience it later.”

What Fire said made sense. And honestly, He Jin was just considering himself before, he never stopped to think that Fire was a full-level player, so it must be very boring for him to continue accompanying He Jin doing those system tasks. Therefore, if they wanted to play together, the best option was for He Jin to quickly catch up with Fire as soon as possible.

Xiao Xian-Jin: “Okay, I’ll listen to you. Let’s hurry to upgrade my level.”

The two of them then continued to do the tasks. Fire’s efficiency was very high, so soon enough, He Jin could see his experience bar kept on rising, even though he was just following behind Fire’s ass like a full-time weevil… He suddenly felt like he was living a quite comfortable life. (=v=)

Just as he was enjoying Fire’s heroic action, the said man suddenly turned around and pierced him with a sword.

System: You are dead.

He Jin: “……”

Xiao Xian-Jin: “Why did you kill me…”

Fire revived him, then answered calmly: “To increase our intimacy.”

Xiao Xian-Jin: “What? You can increase intimacy by killing? What the hell is this setting?”

“It’s not intimacy in the game, but the real intimacy between us,” Fire explained with a smile, “Actually, I just thought you looked so awfully comfortable there, so I wanted to make you feel a bit uncomfortable.”
