From the beginning of their meeting this time, Fire still had yet to ask He Jin about the reason he suddenly went offline before, as if he was deliberately avoiding this problem. Instead, he was now considering about possible problems that He Jin might encounter later, seriously thinking of their future, giving He Jin both gifts and promises…

In face of such warmth, of course He Jin would feel touched. He finally couldn’t hold himself back from asking: “Fire, if I still didn’t come online, would you continue to wait?”

Fire was silent for a moment, before answering softly “Yes”.

Sure enough, this would be his answer…

“Why?” He Jin asked, “Are you really so sure that I’ll still want to continue playing this game? ”

“You don’t want to play? Then what are you doing here? ”

He Jin, who was asked, suddenly felt choked. Indeed, he wanted to play… But he asked that because he was also curious about what was Fire thinking ah, why would he do this for such an ordinary netizen!

Xiao Xian-Jin: “So many years have passed, did it never cross your mind that maybe I’m not going to come online ever again?”

At the other end of the network connection, Qin Yu was looking at the dialog box thoughtfully… To be honest, he also felt strange, because he did never thought of that.

Everyone in the game could see his “married” status, but few people knew that his wife had not been online for years. Dead Water was one of them. He had inadvertently asked Fire once whether he was still waiting for his wife, and after hearing Fire’s affirmative answer, he would occasionally use this matter to ridicule him, and even advised him to forget his so called wife once, to find another new one. But Qin Yu never took him seriously, he was used to it.

Qin Yu said lightly: “If I think about it, then I’ll probably stop waiting.”

Yes, because thinking about it, in a way, had already represented a feeling of hesitation and withdrawal.

So, he simply stopped thinking about it.

Fire’s answer caused a heat to bloom in He Jin’s heart. He Jin was originally a calm person, but meeting this type of people, to hear such words being said to him, he couldn’t help but feel a bit overwhelmed.

Pressing down the uneasiness that had risen within him, He Jin carefully chose his words, hinting tactfully: “But after all these years, what if that person you’ve been waiting for has changed, and become different from your original impression of them?”

Ah Jin no longer online, Qin Yu indeed became depressed for a period of time. He felt so lonely, so frustrated, but without Ah Jin, he also could not simply stop playing the game. So he imagined that Ah Jin was still there accompanying him, staying by his side… After that, every time he met interesting things, or saw new scenery, he would try his best to remember it all, always thinking about waiting for He Jin to come back so that he could show them to her later, to accompany her to see these new things once she returned.

Some things, he did remember, while some others, he ended up forgetting. The world would continue to change and the game was always evolving, but he had never once forgotten the feeling of playing the game with Ah Jin… to be protected, but also wanting to protect each other, as long as they were together, he was very happy. Especially after their in-game wedding, whenever he thought of Ah Jin then, he could not restrain the sudden skipping of his heartbeat.

This heartbeat, except for Ah Jin, no one else has ever made him feel so.

In this way, unconsciously, eight years had passed, and then Ah Jin was online once again. The moment he saw that name, Qin Yu’s heart almost jumped out of his chest…
