MMORPG: Crowd Control

Chapter 172 Fan



Lei Zhen was getting a constant headache from the questions and suggestions that Liu Lingxin bombarded him with.

It was like an endless wave of enemies rushing through to break his defenses.

Scratching his head, Lei Zhen glanced around the surroundings for a few seconds, seemingly wondering if there was any surveillance here.

"You can rest assured, Lei Zhen. This room is reserved for the Tang Group, and the Golden Restaurant wouldn't do something stupid such as eavesdropping on us." Tang Qiaolian seemed to understand his glance and explained.

"Was I being that obvious?" Lei Zhen questioned.

He was sure his face remained the same and wasn't making any random movement. His glancing was only for a glimpse second. Yet it seemed like he got caught right away.

"No, you're not obvious." Tang Qiaolian replied.

She then smiled briefly, "It's just that I have been looking at you for a long time. Hence, I would know how you act occasionally and it slowly became easier to predict what you think."

Although the explanation was clear, Lei Zhen had rather not listened to it.

From her explanation alone, it meant that she was keeping a close watch on his behavior and action enough to know what he wanted, almost like she had become a psychic.

"Hey, can you stop talking to Qiaolian and respond to my questions already?" Liu Lingxin suddenly interrupted and pouted slightly.

"I just got a question. Why do you seem to know about me when we only met once in the past?" Lei Zhen returned her question with a question.

Now that Cecile was gone, he could finally ask why Liu Lingxin was so interested in him.

pαndα`noνɐ1--сoМ "Heh, it's because of your identity Lei Zhen. Did you think that anyone could have a special identity like you?" Tang Qiaolian chuckled softly.

"You are the son of Lei Tuoming even if you are not blood-related in the eyes of many. Plus, you are the only one that Lei Tuoming has praised in public. Based on that, Liu Lingxin was practically a fan of yours." She added.

Liu Lingxin nodded her head in agreement.

"It was dumb of me to not recognize you right away before. If it wasn't for the bullet injury, then I wouldn't have made such a blunder." Liu Lingxin then said to Lei Zhen.

"Oh, speaking of that bullet injury. Has the culprit been caught yet?" Being reminded of that incident, Lei Zhen suddenly asked in concern.

"Oh, about that." Liu Lingxin giggles softly before flashing a cold smirk.

"The culprit has been disposed of and anyone related to the culprit has also gone to drink Meng Po soup." She said coldly.

The fact that Liu Lingxin was calm and giggling about killing the culprit, almost as if it was some normal grocery shopping didn't surprise Lei Zhen much.

In this cruel world, those without power or fame can be killed without a single notice. And by chance, even if their bodies are discovered, as long as one had the money to suppress the matter, then no one else would care.

"I see… I'm glad you're fine now." Lei Zhen smiled slightly.

"Anyway, back to the original question. Have you joined a guild yet? If not, you should totally join Miracle Wing. I'll definitely carry you." Liu Lingxin said, returning to the original topic.

Lei Zhen was helpless at this since he thought he had successfully diverted Liu Lingxin.

However, it seemed like she had her goal set from the start and didn't let his question misdirect her.

"I've created a guild myself with Griselda, and it's called Zero Fear." Lei Zhen replied honestly.

Sooner or later, Tang Qiaolian would recognize him based on the video alone, so it was better to be honest right now than to be exposed later on.

Meanwhile, Liu Lingxin held an astonished look as she shuttered, "B-By Griselda, do you mean that charmer celebrity who's known to be solo?"

Lei Zhen nodded his head.

"Well, there were some encounters here and there and we somehow created a guild."

"Qiaolian, did you hear that?" Liu Lingxin turned around and exclaimed in shock.

However, she noticed Tang Qiaolian was in deep thought.

"Qiaolian, are you okay?" She asked in concern.

Tang Qiaolian snapped out of her daze and stared at Lei Zhen.

"I've seen a recent video lately that has gone viral and it was about Zero Fear Debut, especially an article from Jack Frigel. So you were the so-called Chancellor of Yors Castle?" Tang Qiaolian said in disbelief.

She had always thought Lei Zhen was struggling to level up properly, but never did she expect he was secretly manipulating behind the scenes.

It was too much of a shock for her, especially when she knew that Lei Zhen was a complete amateur regarding Magnolia and the game terminology.

Scratching his head, Lei Zhen could only smile sheepishly in response to their astonished look.

"Now that you know about this, I hope the two of you can keep it a secret." Lei Zhen asked.

And he continued, "Besides I'm going to go on an offense against the Aries Guild soon, so I might need your assistance when the time arrives."

"That's a given, the Aries Guild deserves to plummet to the ground." Liu Lingxin was the first one to show her support.

Tang Qiaolian also nodded her head in agreement.

"Our Miracle Wing has clashed with the Aries Guild numerous times already. And now that we have snatched the first clear achievement, we could be considered to be a death rival where only one could survive. So make sure you call us for help when you need it." She calmly said.

Lei Zhen could only smile and give his thanks for their support.

Time slowly passed by, and Lei Zhen conversed with them for a few more hours before bidding farewell.

He had not visited his sister in the hospital for quite some time so he wanted to take this opportunity to see her.

Tang Qiaolian and Liu Lingxin were understanding people and allowed him to use this excuse to leave.
