T0 Gaming Guild Saves the World.

Chapter 483. A Family
The leaderboard only displays the progress of each sect in the Three Realms, including specific details, whether they are stuck, and the fog of war over the boundary between the real and virtual worlds.

The existence of the Star Gazing Sect effectively compensated for this.

Most importantly, the details of the dungeons experienced in the Three Kingdoms may not be included on their website.

The pre-launch inspection results brought everyone to their happiest.

Li Furan is such a reliable person.

The progress information of top-ranked guilds is detailed, down to the reason why they are stuck.

I've already cleared the floors, and I know what methods I used to complete the game. I'm confident I can get my hands on it.

Jiang Heyi could imagine how anxious Zhi Feng was, silently observing the changing situation.

After uploading the information of the three critical copies to the Tower World Encyclopedia, Jiang Heyi suddenly had a strange feeling.

It felt like being secretly watched by something, sending chills down your spine.

He turned around sharply, but did not see the affectionate couple he had expected.

The door to French Fries' room was tightly shut, and the room was empty except for him.

After hesitating for a moment, he shook his head, assuming it was just a hallucination.

Today is Lunar New Year's Eve, but the spring cleaning was already completed yesterday, so at 10 a.m., the house was still in a lazy state.

The winter morning light filtered through the gauze curtains, casting dappled shadows on the black and white fabric.

The whole room was filled with a kind of wintery laziness, and the tangerines that were not finished last night were scattered on the coffee table.

The fruit at the Tea God's house seems to be something the couple never tires of, showing off one fruit after another. It's almost like I'm worried I'll wake up to find a little Minion.

At this moment, the two of them were entwined together like two sloths hibernating in winter.

Lu Xinxin nestled in Liu Jinhong's arms, her fingertips twirling around the buttons on his pajamas.

Liu Jinhong rested his chin on the top of her head, humming something under his breath.

The two of them had their down comforters slipped halfway down, revealing cartoon characters on their fluffy socks underneath—there's a reason these two can get along so well with young people; their mentality is no different from that of young students still in school.

The TV was showing a war movie, and it's amazing that they could be all lovey-dovey amidst the sounds of gunfire and explosions. They've really reached a high level of artistry.

Seeing that Jiang Heyi was busy, French Fries went to the next room to exercise alone.

She is a very self-disciplined person. Since they started living together, she has never stopped her daily plans unless she is disturbed by him or forced to.

Seeing Jiang Heyi peeking around, she stopped sweating profusely and picked up a towel to wipe her face.

Jiang Heyi stepped forward, took the towel, and obediently tilted her head back and then down to wipe her.

"Busy working?"

"Yes, things are really tough on the Three Realms Land. It's difficult to resolve without spending points to skip levels."

"Is it that difficult?"

The fries were getting a little eager to try.

In her view, the critical instance was not invincible; it was just that the people of the Three Realms had not found the trick.

"I can't say about other things, but that guy who can automatically switch between magic-suppressing and magic-based forms is quite troublesome, and he forces the team to have an equal number of warriors and mages."

While faith-based classes might have some advantages, their presence in the Stars of Proof is generally low.

After all, the random team environment is always like this: you're playing a dedicated class, how come you don't have support skills, no healer, no shield?
What? You actually play a damage dealer?

What heresy! Get out of here!
Aside from players who have chosen a class from the very beginning and have never wavered in their second class, no one in a fixed team would specifically switch classes for the Tower of Trials.

As they chatted, Jiang Heyi's gaze naturally fell on... her waist.

French Fries pretended to be nonchalant: "Go ahead and touch it if you want."

Jiang Heyi glanced at the doorway, then seemed to remember something: "Let's do it tonight..."

The couple is acting like ghosts; who knows if the walls are listening.

After only two days, he deeply understood the feelings of the French fries.

We should move out as soon as possible.

The house of the gluttonous couple is like a magic card; anyone who enters becomes their big toy, and you can't do anything about it.

At noon, Jiang Heyi pinned the lovey-dovey couple to the sofa and refused to let them into the kitchen.

For the two days he was there, he felt like he was being raised like a pig by the two of them.

Every time they ate, Lu Xinxin would give him double the amount of food, assuming that his appetite was the same as that of French fries.

Every morning, before they were even fully awake, the two of them would be busy in the kitchen preparing breakfast for them, so that they would have something to eat as soon as they opened their eyes.

Every few days, they would ask him if he was thirsty, just like a toddler learning to walk who needs constant care from his parents.

Jiang Heyi, who had developed independent living habits at a young age, was flattered.

Looking back on the past ten years or so, perhaps this is the trouble of happiness.

It was something he had never experienced before.

Lu Xinxin tried to struggle, but Liu Jinhong held her back.

He also gave Jiang Heyi an approving look: "We're all family, so let's not stand on ceremony. This year's New Year's Eve dinner is up to you two. Whatever you make, we'll eat it."

French fries instinctively shut out my parents' cloying sweetness, so I ignored the unspoken meaning in my dad's words.

Jiang Heyi understood.

I glanced at the food stored in the refrigerator; everything was there.

The kitchen is spacious, and the couple are both good cooks and eaters, so it is fully equipped with all kinds of kitchen utensils.

Tie on your apron and get to work!
The rising steam from the kitchen fogged up the glass, shutting out the cold wind and the sound of firecrackers outside, leaving only the bubbling of soup and the light, rhythmic sound of a cleaver hitting the cutting board.

Jiang Heyi stood in front of the stove, holding a long ladle, stirring a pot of soybean and pork rib soup. The steam carrying a fresh aroma wafted over, making him squint.

French Fries stood in front of the counter next to him, head down, intently cutting potatoes.

Her knife skills were superb; the blade flew between her fingers, and the potatoes quickly piled up into a small, yellowish-brown mound.

Occasionally, a few stray hairs would slip down behind her ears, and she would tilt her head slightly, gently brush them away with her shoulder, and continue what she was doing.

Jiang Heyi glanced sideways, somewhat dazed, as if she could see the scene in the game where she was chasing enemies with a mad wolf, carefully slicing them into minced meat.

For any potato-related dishes, French fries will take care of it.

This is a regular part of our family's routine.

Jiang Heyi guessed that with so many pieces cut, there would be hot and sour shredded potatoes and French fries.

On the stove, the braised pork belly was bubbling away in the casserole, the amber sauce coating the marbled pieces of meat and emitting a rich, sweet aroma.

Simmer over low heat, then turn to a gentle simmer until the fatty meat becomes translucent and flavorful.

Just looking at it makes you imagine the delicious moment when chunks of meat slice open in your mouth, juices flowing out and filling your mouth.

The aroma of soy sauce mixed with a hint of caramelized rock sugar flows slowly in the warm air.

The dark brown soy sauce was bubbling with tiny bubbles, and a plump free-range chicken was soaking in it, its skin already turning an enticing amber color. Jiang Heyi gently poked the base of the chicken leg with long chopsticks, and clear juices immediately seeped out.

Where did you learn that?

The potato twig stared intently as Jiang Heyi poured spoonful after spoonful of the bubbling sauce over the chicken, making its color even more vibrant and tempting.

"Cuttlefish."

Zhong Zemo puts his heart and soul into preparing different dishes for everyone every day, and Jiang Heyi is the one who helps out the most.

Over time, I learned some of the techniques as well.

"I have a feeling that when Moyu is at home in bed, he's probably surrounded by a bunch of people in the kitchen, marveling at his abilities and praising him endlessly."

Zhong Zemo's nose was itchy, and as soon as he reached out, his older brother in the blanket immediately handed him a tissue.

As soon as the poached chicken was placed on the cutting board to be chopped, my second brother, who was in bed, quickly took out a suitable plate and handed it over, just like an apprentice chef.

He was indeed surrounded by a group of people.

"Brother-in-law, where did you learn this...?"

"I learned it by watching videos; I was forced to do it."

"We know what Du Jingwen did." Her profile has gotten a bit too high.

Zhong Zemo has lost count of how many times he has answered the questions from his relatives at home while they are in bed, but he never tires of it.

"Brother-in-law..."

"Uh, wait until I tell you, brother-in-law, we're not married yet."

"Hey, it's only a matter of time. I don't believe anyone can take her away from her. This girl is like a dog, especially possessive of her food."

"..."

Remembering how Du Jingwen slunk away after being scolded by her husband in bed.

Then think back to the accident where she crossed the boundary between reality and illusion in her attempt to vent her anger...

A brother truly understands his sister.

They definitely guard their food!

Zhong Zemo didn't try to win over his relatives in bed much, but everyone here had an unusually high opinion of him.

Jiang Heyi complained in the group that his parents were too enthusiastic and wouldn't let him do anything.

That's pretty much the same for him.

If he hadn't been showing off his unparalleled culinary skills in bed, he probably would have just been playing on his phone on New Year's Eve, and no one would have called him lazy...

Only after asking did I find out that it was because of Du Jingwen yet again...

It was as if he had been given an invincible reputation buff. Before bringing him back, his father specifically emphasized the value of Du Jingwen's reputation.

"We absolutely cannot let Youzi bear the same reputation as Du Jingwen. Everyone, be more alert, and don't let others laugh at our Xia family."

Outside the kitchen, squid is busy.

Outside the kitchen, the bed was being besieged by relatives who had come to eat together.

"Yuzu, Yuzu, are there any single people in your guild? Introduce some to us."

"Yeah, Yuzu, I don't expect it to be as good as Cuttlefish, but if you know of a suitable one, please recommend it."

It's impossible not to be envious, and it's impossible not to feel anxious.

Going to university already means that the bed, which is not short of money, has solved most of the problem of future wealth.

While playing games, she also snatched a legendary boyfriend, basically securing her fiancé. Her track record is verifiable; she's practically cheating.

After leaving university and struggling in society for a while, they looked back and found themselves completely outmatched, so they hurriedly sought advice from others.

But when it comes to love, there's no going back; cuttlefish are truly rare creatures.

My personality is that of a person who enjoys daily life; my hobby is playing games; I have no bad habits, I don't smoke or drink, and I have a stable job.

If Du Jingwen hadn't torn the net herself, she would have been stuck watching that big fish forever.

The only other person who fits this requirement is the good chairman Jiang Heyi.

Since the game started, I have handled team issues flawlessly, and I always prioritize the development of everyone else over taking less resources myself.

Good personality, good character.

But they were also pre-ordered by Shui Liu Mai fries two years ago.

These gamers, who bury themselves in their games, live in a small circle, and are purely focused on their daily lives, are like cavemen. Unless you can catch them on their foraging route, you'll never encounter them.

Unless you're also cavemen and play video games.

"Is there nothing else besides these two?"

He shrugged, lying in bed.

"There is another person who seems to be harassed by a blonde woman, but the situation is unknown."

"As for the other one, you'd better stay away from him. He's a top-tier superhuman, not someone that ordinary people can handle."

"Why does it feel like you're being possessive of your food, Yuzu? You already have squid, are you still hiding things?"

He covered his forehead with the blanket.

These people's brains are definitely not suitable for introduction.

For an ordinary person to have fantasies about a prison guard, their anime/manga fantasies must be extremely strong.

Not only that, but you also have to match his unique brainwaves.

Otherwise, if you get close, you'll be blocked by the prison guard's strange "stance," making normal communication impossible.

Even if you do manage to do so, you still won't be able to delve into his excessively rich inner world.

When it comes to being a pervert, he's top-tier.

She quickly found an opportunity to escape the group's interrogation.

Only someone with a brain full of idiots would give them advice; they'd be better off going to Cuttlefish's side and enjoying the New Year's atmosphere.

Hehe, she wants all her relatives to know how she used her powerful skills to catch the top-quality seafood!

……

……

After a busy afternoon, it gradually got dark outside the window. The twilight was like a drop of ink falling into clear water, slowly spreading and gradually swallowing up the daylight.

Warm yellow lights flickered on the distant high-rise buildings.

Thousands of lights twinkled.

The coffee table in the living room looked crowded, with dishes piled up all over the table, and even a plate of pork belly in the center had to be stacked up.

Even before they were halfway through their work, Lu Xinxin and Liu Jinhong came to "inspect" the New Year's Eve dinner preparations.

Watching the two of them busily working in the kitchen, their smiles practically reached the heavens.

Unusually, they didn't linger in front of the two of them, but instead quietly left, giving them space again.

Without waiting for anyone to pick up their chopsticks first, Fries muttered to himself, "Okay, let's eat."

Without saying a word, he picked up a piping hot French fry that had just come out of the oven and took a bite. Then he snatched the biggest piece of pork belly and put it in Jiang Heyi's bowl.

"Eat, ignore them."

Is this appropriate?

Jiang Heyi felt that the way the fries were made was as if they had gone through something.

Do the couple usually pull some surprises during the New Year's Eve dinner?
"Xiaofei is really very vigilant."

"Unfortunately, we didn't play any pranks this year."

So there used to be a prank segment?

Liu Jinhong poured a glass of coconut juice and handed it to Jiang Heyi with both hands.

"Just like Xiaofei said, let's start eating. We're all family, don't be shy."

French Fries' mind came back to normal.

She coughed, quickly gulped down a mouthful of soda, and swallowed.

"Eat, just eat, stop talking!"

"Can your whole family tolerate your stuttering, Xiaofei?" Lu Xinxin interrogated. "You're already sleeping together, what's there to be shy about?"

Liu Jinhong clinked glasses with Jiang Heyi.

“Heyi, I know you used to spend Chinese New Year alone, but you won’t anymore.”

“I know you all dislike me. I come home for a few days every year to experience that feeling of being annoyed. After the New Year, if you can’t stand our time together, you go back to your own time together. That’s perfect.”

"In short, starting this year, remember to go home for the Chinese New Year on time."

Liu Jinhong refilled the glass and swirled it in front of Jiang Heyi.

"can do it?"

Jiang Heyi smiled and held out her cup.
