Chapter 885: Chapter 885: Heaven Earth Alliance's Future Director! (3)

“When you enter, you’ll receive a new player game manual,” Si Fuqing explained. “It will have all the information, but since you have a three-star account, you won’t be able to access those ten forbidden zones.”

Even five-star and six-star players could meet their demise in the Top Ten Forbidden Zones, let alone those of lower star ratings.

Xi Jiang understood. “If I use sleep mode for training, my progress will be rapid.”

The sleep mode time ratio was one to ten compared to real-time.

Feng San didn’t say a word, casting a cold glance at Xi Jiang.

In his heart, he had already resolved to train even harder and outdo Xi Jiang.

The two of them made plans to spar in the holographic game.

“Prepare everything for the trip to Eastern Mulberry at the end of the month,” Si Fuqing said, placing the completed talismans into a sachet and handing it to Yu Xiheng. “Boss, always carry the Sisi-brand talisman with you. This way, if you’re in danger, I can get to you as quickly as possible.”

“You know your talismans best,” Yu Xiheng replied calmly. “If I place it incorrectly, it might not be as effective as if you placed it yourself.”

“True,” Si Fuqing agreed. She propped herself up on the sofa with one hand, carefully reached over with the other, and tucked the sachet into the pocket of his shirt.

Then, she patted his chest with satisfaction. “Keep it here, closest to your heart for the best effect.”

Yu Xiheng leaned on the sofa, looking down at her.

Their faces were incredibly close.

At that moment, a voice interrupted them.

“Brother Nine, Miss Si, I still have—”

The words were abruptly cut off.

Xi Jiang quickly shut the door and shouted, “I didn’t see anything!”

Si Fuqing sighed, “…”

She glanced at Yu Xiheng, who was adjusting his tie. “You’ve ruined my reputation!”

“Mhmm,” Yu Xiheng slowly straightened up. “How does the lady wish to be compensated?”

Si Fuqing stared at him for three seconds and then demanded, “I want milk tea!”

Yu Xiheng’s hand that was previously moving stopped, then he seemingly sighed. “Easily satisfied.”

“Exactly,” Si Fuqing shrugged. “I’m not asking for gold.”

Thinking about her financial predicament, Si Fuqing grabbed a certain pixiu creature’s ear, gritting her teeth. “Ungrateful brat!”

Little Bai looked aggrieved. “…”

Why was it always the one to get hurt?

Meanwhile, on the other side.

Duan Jingtao still couldn’t believe he had been expelled from the Heaven Earth Alliance.

But his account information had been entirely erased, and he could no longer log into the Heaven Earth Alliance member website.

When Master Zhuang heard about it, he was also shocked. “What exactly did you do?”

“I-I just misspoke a bit,” Duan Jingtao recounted, still feeling indignant. “Besides, I wasn’t wrong. She’s not a senior member of the Heaven Earth Alliance, so why should she attend the treasure appraisal meeting?”

“This is unacceptable,” Master Zhuang frowned. “You’ve been with the Heaven Earth Alliance for a long time. How could they expel you over such a trivial matter? I’ll call to find out what’s going on.”

Ji Qingwei’s reputation as a plagiarist was now irrevocable, and her career in the art world was essentially over.

Master Zhuang had few disciples, and Duan Jingtao was one of the more outstanding ones.

He couldn’t just watch Duan Jingtao’s future be ruined as well.

Director Mou’s attitude was no longer as warm as before. “What is it?”

“Director Mou, isn’t Director Gu going too far?” Master Zhuang began. “Si Fuqing is just a celebrity. Expelling a senior member over a minor issue will dishearten others.”

“Celebrity?” Director Mou, holding back his anger, sneered. “Do you mean to say that Gu Huiyan’s student, the future director of the Heaven Earth Alliance, doesn’t even have the authority to expel a senior member?!”
