Chapter 691: Chapter 554: The Grand Wedding (Part 2)
*Hmm… being single wasn’t so bad; at least one could be as carefree as they wanted.*
*Single life forever!*
Cao Lingxuan comforted herself .
But even so, she couldn’t help but sigh,
“It was such a wonderful wedding…”
“Yes, it really was an enviable wedding,”
a somewhat wistful, complex, and envious female voice came from beside her.
Cao Lingxuan turned her head and saw a female player dressed as a rogue standing next to her without her noticing. She had black hair and eyes, and there was a hint of bewilderment in her gaze toward the center of the venue.
Cao Lingxuan instinctively glanced at the top of the other’s head and found that her ID was also hidden.
“Why do so many players in this city hide their IDs?”
she muttered quietly.
Noticing her gaze, the female elf gave a dazzling smile,
“Ah… yes, I just started today,”
Cao Lingxuan replied.
The female elf looked her up and down, nodded, and laughed,
“I could tell, welcome to Segis World. But… don’t be shy. Once you get used to this place, you’ll grow quickly.”
With that, she extended her hand,
“I’m called Nightingale Shadow.”
*Nightingale Shadow?*
Cao Lingxuan secretly memorized the ID, then shook the other’s hand,
“Hello, I’m called Bilodis.”
“Bilodis? What a nice name,”
Nightingale raised her eyebrows and said with a smile.
Then, she casually snatched two drinks from a flamboyantly red-haired person carrying a tray who was passing by and handed one to Cao Lingxuan,
“Here, try this, it’s a specialty from Feilengcui—Hundred Flower Tea.”
*Such skillful movements!*
Cao Lingxuan’s eyes lit up.
However, she soon glimpsed the player with the four green words “Demacia” on their head, from whom Nightingale had taken the drink, sitting at a banquet table and looking puzzledly at their empty tray…
*That player wasn’t a waiter, right?* *Definitely not, right?!*
Seeing the peculiar look in her eyes, Nightingale laughed,
“Don’t worry, the drinks here are unlimited, he can get more himself.”
She twitched her lips but still accepted the drink called Hundred Flower Tea that the other handed her.
The young woman held the wooden cup, curiously eyeing the translucent amber liquid inside.
Just holding it, a strange and refreshing fragrance wafted over, invigorating her while also making her want to drink it.
Cao Lingxuan swallowed and then brought the floral tea to her mouth.
The cool drink entered her mouth, sweet with a hint of sourness. The floral aroma rapidly spread through her mouth, and its refreshing taste was as delightful as drinking a chilled beverage on a hot day, leaving a lasting impression.
Cao Lingxuan’s eyes lit up,
“Isn’t it? Isn’t it?”
Nightingale said with a smile, enjoying the floral tea with her eyes squinted.
Cao Lingxuan nodded vigorously, glancing around the venue, unable to resist asking,
“Are weddings often held in the game?”
Nightingale hesitated, then shook her head as if suddenly understanding,
“No, this was the first one.”
After speaking, she looked at the couple receiving blessings, and her gaze softened,
“This wedding was initiated by the Life Temple and hosted by the Nature’s Heart Guild and Mengmeng Committee Guild, arranged specifically for Noah and Constantine.”
*The Nature’s Heart Guild, huh… Mr. Black Cat mentioned that it’s the largest guild in the ‘Elf Kingdom,’ no wonder the event was so lively.*
Cao Lingxuan suddenly realized.
And Nightingale continued,
“Noah and Constantine are both members of the Elf Guard. During the previous War of Faith, they participated as supporters in the Chosen One Army of Nature’s Heart and Mengmeng Committee. Many attending their wedding are high-level members of the two guilds as well as Chosen Ones they befriended in the guild.”
*So that’s how it was.*
Just earlier, Mr. Black Cat had briefed her that players recently fought a big battle with tens of thousands involved, which was spectacular.
And the opening scene she had watched, its final war scene was taken from that event.
*But for some reason, listening to Nightingale’s words, Cao Lingxuan felt that something seemed a bit off…*
*However, she couldn’t pinpoint what felt discordant.*
“So… did they get together during a mission?”
Cao Lingxuan asked again.
Nightingale paused, then laughed,
“Sort of, but it was Noah who pursued Constantine at first. He wasn’t very good at courting, and Constantine had a fear of men due to some unpleasant experiences in the past…”
“In the end, with the help of the Chosen Ones, Noah helped Constantine overcome her fear during a battle in the Death Desert and moved her, and Constantine accepted his love proposal.”
*This female player must have had some bad memories in real life,*
Cao Lingxuan speculated.
*With the help of the Chosen Ones?*
*Why did that sound a bit strange to her?*
The girl mumbled a bit.
Nightingale, on the other hand, looked in the direction of the players and sighed slightly,
“I must say, some of the Chosen Ones really know how to woo women.”
“But there are also lots of jerks, especially online.”
Nightingale blinked, seemingly not understanding Cao Lingxuan’s meaning.
Seeing her puzzled expression, Cao Lingxuan sighed,
“Anyone can speak sweet words, but knowing someone’s face doesn’t mean knowing their heart…”
