Chapter 200
In the afternoon, Ji Yunting logs out since Ah Zhao urges him to do so, saying that it's time for him to have a proper meal .
He hates to leave her but feels happy that she cares about him, so he logs out and returns to reality .
He’s a good cook . With food bought this morning in the fridge, it’s easy for him to make a meal .
However, his phone rings again .
As soon as he learns it’s his mum, he knows it’s probably about the blind date .
“Hello? Mum, I want to tell you I have someone that I like . ” He pauses as his mum keeps talking: “I’ve heard she has been hit by a drunk driver, quite serious too . She has been sent to ICU and hasn't woken up . ”
Hanging up, now that he knows he doesn’t have to attend the blind date on Saturday anymore but his heart is heavy .
Though he doesn’t know that girl, he feels sorry for her for being struck down with such an unfortunate accident .
He doesn’t feel like eating and logs on the game after a few bites .
“Why are you back so soon? Didn’t I tell you to have a walk or go to the gym after the meal?”
Ah Zhao looks at Ji Yunting disapprovingly . She thinks it's very important to care for one’s health .
Ji Yunting takes her in his arms and tells her what just happened .
“Sometimes, humans can be very vulnerable . Affairs of the world change constantly . ”
He holds her tight and says: “Therefore, I’ll treasure every second that I’m with you, Ah Zhao . ”
Though she feels a little uncomfortable because of the tight hug, she doesn’t say anything and pats him on the arms .
“It’s going to be alright . Let's pray for her . I hope she’ll wake up soon . ”
“Mm . ”

However, it seems God hasn't heard their prayers .
Two days later, Ji Yunting hears from his mum that the girl lives but lives in her sleep .
The doctors aren't sure whether she is going to wake up or not .
Maybe someday a miracle will happen to her or she is going to remain unconscious for the rest of her life .
Talking of that, his mum can’t hide the regret in her tone .
That girl's family has been on good terms with Ji Family for a long time . Ji Yunting’s mum likes her a lot which is why she wanted to introduce her to her son .
Ji Yunting does feel sorry for that girl but that’s all .
After that, he mostly stays in the game .

However, now he is interested in this game for a different reason than he was before .
In the past, he enjoyed playing instances, upgrading, collecting gears and forging legendary weapons; now he simply wants to stay with Ah Zhao .
He won’t feel boring even if the two of them sit under a tree admiring the scenery together .
It's just that Ah Zhao is indeed watching the scenery while Ji Yunting is watching the girl who is watching the scenery .
To him, she is the most beautiful scenery of the world .
“The All Server Competition is coming . ” Ah Zhao suddenly says .
Ji Yunting isn’t very enthusiastic about it: “Oh . ”
She is a little unhappy about his indifferent reaction . “Are you sure you are not going to enter for it?”

He’s not very sure about it . “Perhaps?”
Such a competition takes a lot of time . It will take away the time he could spend with Ah Zhao .
Ah Zhao is very interested and talks a lot about it .
Ji Yunting finally understands what she wants . “You want me in?”
“Of course!” Her eyes are bright . “You are the best player of the whole server . You are going to be the champion . ”
“Do you want me to be the champion?” He asks .
“Ah?”
He strokes her on the head and speaks with all seriousness: “I’m not very interested in it . But if you want me to be the champion, I’m going to win no matter what . ”
