276 An Invitation
When Su Ming heard that, he first waved his hand indifferently before he said, “I’m also on my way in the game, so I won’t delay my work.”
Hearing this, Shen Yi let out a sigh of relief, and her expression relaxed.
Once they got out of the car, the two of them went to a cafe in Five Leaves Plaza. Shen Yi and Su Ming sat in the same row.
“Don’t you think today’s matter is a bit of a waste of time?”
When Su Ming heard Shen Yi’s question, he first cast her a glance before he said, “That will depend on what your brother is looking for you for.”
Shen Yi was first stunned, then she looked at Su Ming with a slightly amused expression.
“The way you speak, it’s as if you’re very close to him.”
“He’s looking for me all of a sudden. I guess there’s nothing else other than family matters.”
“If I wasn’t afraid of annoying him, I probably wouldn’t even be willing to ask you to come along.”
When Su Ming heard that, he smiled, but he did not take the initiative to reply to her.
Based on Shen Yi’s family situation, Su Ming felt that Shen Yi’s understanding of Shen Fang might not even be as deep as his own.
After all, after these few days of contact, he could be considered to have a general understanding of Shen Fang.
In the eyes of the Shen family, the eldest brother of the Shen family, who worked at Shencun Gaming Company, seemed to be just an ordinary white-collar worker.
However, in Su Ming’s eyes, there was a high chance that he was a traitor, and there was a high chance that he would be on the side of the extraterrestrial.
Under such circumstances, Su Ming had to be on guard against him.
Even if Shen Yi did not ask him to come over today, as long as Su Ming knew about this, he would still take the initiative to come over and take a look at the situation.
The two of them sat in the cafe for a while and chatted.
Fortunately, the two of them were already quite familiar with each other, so they wouldn’t feel awkward because of a moment of silence and awkward silence.
After another 15 minutes, just as Shen Yi was getting impatient and was about to call Shen Fang, the door of the cafe was pushed open.
A refined-looking young man with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose walked in from the entrance of the cafe.
It was Shen Fang.
After seeing Shen Yi, a smile appeared on Shen Fang’s face, and he even waved his hand in her direction.
However, the moment he saw Su Ming, the smile on his face instantly disappeared.
After staring at Su Ming for a while, Shen Fang quirked his eyebrows and walked over.
He walked in front of the two and sat down. Shen Fang first sized up Su Ming for a moment, then looked at Shen Yi.
“Little Yi, your relationship with Su Ming has become so good. I didn’t even know about it.”
When Su Ming heard Shen Fang’s words, he first quirked his eyebrows, but he did not say anything.
When Shen Yi heard this, she first cast a glance at Su Ming, who was beside her, then turned around to look at Shen Fang.
“Oh, really? It seems like you don’t know a lot about the Shen family.”
When Shen Fang heard this, he was slightly startled, then he couldn’t help but laugh bitterly.
“Little Yi, there’s no other way. I also have my own difficulties…”
Shen Yi waved her hand. “Ever since you graduated from University, you have not returned home. It was as if you had disappeared from the world for a few years.”
“The next time you appear, you’ll be a part of Shencun Gaming Company. You must have your own difficulties…”
Shen Yi rubbed the space between her brows, and her expression was somewhat impatient.
“If you called me here today just to say this, I think I’ve wasted a bit of my time.”
Shen Fang took in a deep breath. He first cast a glance at Shen Yi, then at Su Ming, who was standing beside her.
“Su Ming, it seems like I’ve made a fool of myself.”
Su Ming did not expect Shen Fang to suddenly mention him. He quirked his eyebrows and said, “It’s fine, it’s fine. Just pretend that I don’t exist.”
Shen Fang took a deep breath and looked at Shen Yi, who was standing beside Su Ming.
“Little Yi, can you be a little more patient? I called you over today because I really have something important to tell you.”
Shen Yi nodded and took a sip of the coffee in front of her.
“That’s why I haven’t left yet. I’m waiting for you to tell me about your so-called important matter.”
Shen Fang looked at Shen Yi and seemed to be considering his tone before he spoke again, “I called you over this time mainly because I wanted to talk to you about the game.”
“I heard from dad that you’ve recently joined a gaming studio, right? For Origin of Humans: Horde.”
When Shen Yi heard Shen Fang’s question, her eyes first focused and after looking at Shen Fang, she nodded her head.
“Yes, what’s the matter?”
Shen Fang shook his head and turned his head to look at Su Ming before him. He said, “If I’m not wrong, Su Ming is with you?”
Su Ming did not wait for Shen Yi to speak. He nodded his head and said, “Yes, that’s right.”
Shen Fang also looked at Su Ming and asked, “What’s your level in the game now?”
When Su Ming heard Shen Fang’s question, he first paused for a moment before he said, “Level 24.”
Naturally, Su Ming did not want to reveal his identity as a game player to Shen Fang.
It did not matter whether it was the players in the inner circle or the identity of Night Blade, Su Ming did not want Shen Fang to know about it.
Level 24 was about the same as the mainstream level of the open beta players, and Shen Yi happened to be at this level.
This level was already considered the top level of the current mainstream players.
When Shen Yi heard Su Ming’s words, she did not seem too surprised.
Su Ming had mentioned the problem of his avatar during the meeting at the workshop.
When he said that he needed to keep his identity in the game a secret, the other people in the studio were not surprised and were willing to cooperate with him.
After all, they were the Origin of Humans: Horde players, he naturally knew the importance of the ID Night Blade.
Once Shen Fang heard Su Ming’s words, he first cast him a glance, then nodded his head.
“This level is already considered very high among the current players.”
“However, if you want to gain a foothold in this game and even become the top player in the future, this level is not enough.”
When Su Ming heard this, his expression did not change much. He only continued looking at Shen Fang.
When Shen Fang saw that Su Ming had fallen into silence, he did not continue speaking to him. Instead, he turned his head around and looked at Shen Yi, who was standing before him.
“Shen Yi, you should be clear that everything I said is the truth.”
Shen Yi looked at him, and her brows unconsciously furrowed.
