Chapter 768: Come Home Often
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Hong Dali put some blood on the Dragon Blood Ring and sure enough, a burst of intense energy fluctuated. A delicate one-meter long blue dragon appeared above the Dragon Blood Ring! The blue dragon danced in the air and after a while, finally prompted the coordinates…
After the coordinates were entered, space was distorted and a flash of white light appeared. When Hong Dali looked at the surroundings, he was so shocked he opened his eyes wide!
It was a main city under construction. The roads and streets were more than 50 meters wide. The buildings looked similar to those in ancient Heavenly State and were beautifully carved. At that moment, there were many pedestrians on the road and it was very lively. Especially on the side of the road, several shops had opened. Weapons stores, armor points, jewelry stores, etc. It was small but complete. Everything that a virtual world should have…
It seemed the virtual world on Earth was developing fast as well!
Hong Dali and the others looked around. They attracted enough attention usually. With the cool Honorary Aristocrat cloak, some people started to scream—
“Quick, look! It’s Young Master! Young Master is back ahhhhhhhh!”
“Young Master, you’re my idol. Sign for me! Young Master!”
“Young Master, I’m too fortunate to have met you in my life. Seeking for love and support. Can cook and warm the bed!”
Hong Dali’s sweat fell like water. It was Earth, indeed, in Heavenly State. But he was not sure which city…
“That, uncle,” Hong Dali asked a man who came up to ask for an autograph. “what city is this? I just came back and I’m not too sure!”
This uncle had come to ask for an autograph, but it seemed he might not get one—he quickly replied, “This is Beijing. Young Master, look at the surroundings, aren’t the buildings all built like Beijing palaces? This virtual world is really good. I don’t get tired working here and I even get paid. I earned a few hundred yuan in just a few days. I”m too happy…”
En, our luck is not bad, indeed. We really teleported to Beijing. Hahaha! It’s too easy!
Hong Dali: “Uncle, can you tell me, are there any government officials here? I need to look for someone.”
“Yes, definitely.” Hong Dali disappeared with no news for a couple of days. When he returned, quite a few things seemed to have changed. He must be here to settle proper business. The uncle did not dare to reject him and quickly led the way. “Young Master, please follow me. It’s just around the corner.”
A group of people set off and soon arrived. Hong Dali was overjoyed when he looked up—
A huge door with two stone lions on each side. The words on top of the door wrote: “Government.”
“Good place.” Hong Dali appeared satisfied.
…
In the Second Fish aircraft carrier, Bureau Chief’s office.
“Bureau Chief, good news, good news!” A guard ran into the Bureau Chief’s office in long strides and shouted. “Good news, Bureau Chief!”
“What good news got you so excited.” The Bureau Chief smiled as he asked, “Speak slowly, what news is it?”
“Young Master, Young Master is back!”
“What?! Where?!” Hearing that, the Bureau Chief jumped up from his seat and asked anxiously. “Where is he now?”
“Virtual world, in Beijing’s government office!”
“I’ll go over right now!” Bureau Chief made his way out but suddenly stopped. “Who did Dali come back with?”
The guard: “Other than those movie-makers from Hollywood, everyone is back.”
“Good!” The Bureau Chief instructed immediately. “Inform the Hong Family, and everyone else related. Ask them to enter the virtual world right now. Quick!”
“Yes!”
…
In the virtual world.
“Wahahaha, Uncle Chief, long time no see!” Hong Dali’s tears welled up when he saw the Bureau Chief. He went up to give him a tight hug. “I finally meet my family after so many days, haha!”
“Brat, look at you. You must be doing quite well there!” The Bureau Chief looked at Hong Dali and was very satisfied with his current situation. He laughed. “Hahahaha, you’re from Earth, indeed. Good luck follows you wherever you go, awesome!” The Bureau Chief did not usually speak like that, but it was different today…
“Hehe, so-so, not bad.” Hong Dali rubbed his nose. “Where are my parents?”
The main reason for his return was to show his parents that he was safe and well. He must not forget about that.
“I have informed them. They should be here soon.” The Bureau Chief was in a very good mood. He looked around. “I have informed everyone’s family and friends. They will be here soon.”
The Bureau Chief was indeed reliable. That was why Hong Dali came to look for him once he returned—if he had to inform everyone one by one, it would have taken forever.
Speaking of which, Hong Dali had finally returned to Earth. The Bureau Chief finally had a weight lifted off his chest. He had many questions for Hong Dali. But he knew that Hong Dali had no time for him. Not now, at least. So he just waited with Hong Dali. Everything could be discussed after he had met with his parents.
Transportation was convenient in the virtual world. The key was that the Bureau Chief had given Hong Weiguo and Lan Ruoxi, and everyone else, a designated place of residence in the city. Once they came online, they would be in the city. In just about five to six minutes, Hong Weiguo, Lan Ruoxi, Tang Muxin’s parents Tang Ruisi and his wife, Geezer Wang, Ling Mufeng, and everyone else arrived.
It got really lively in the government office, bustling and full of people!
On Hong Dali’s side.
“Dali!” Lan Ruoxi ran towards Hong Dali once she entered through the doors. She dashed to Hong Dali and held Hong Dali’s hand, looking at him from head to toe, not missing any detail. His hair, eyebrows, eyes, nose, mouth… she wanted to know if Hong Dali even lost a strand of hair. When she finished looking and found nothing missing, her eyes were smiling. “Aiyo, our little prodigal seems to be doing quite well. You put on weight in just a few days…”
Actually, it was nothing for parents and their children to not see each other for ten over days. But it was a little different for Hong Dali—how far apart was Earth from the Galaxy Alliance Center?
Tens of thousands of light-years! Even if he could come back often, it was different from being on Earth.
At least, Hong Dali had people taking care of him everywhere he went. But it was different in the Galaxy Alliance Center.
“Mother,” Hong Dali felt like he was about to cry and quickly pinched his nose. “I’m okay. I eat well and drink well there. Everything is good. Hehe. It feels quite good at the moment, I even met a few new friends. They are all very powerful.”
“As long as you’re not treated badly, as long as you’re not treated badly!” Lan Ruoxi looked at Hong Dali. She would have imprinted Hong Dali’s face in her mind if she could. She pulled Hong Dali to the sofa and sat down. Then, she looked left and right again. Finally, she looked at the words on the cloak that Hong Dali wore. “Our little prodigal, this cloak is very impressive. Let me see, Aristocrat.Dali. Haha, good, good! Such a good cloak could only be matched with our little prodigal’s status!”
“Hehe, it’s okay.” Hong Dali laughed. “I’m an Honorary Aristocrat, Double Honorary Aristocrat at that. Mother, look at the quality of this cloak, it’s really durable. High-quality material in the universe! Original!”
“Rubbish, how could our Dali wear something pirated? If that was the case, I’ll go to the Galaxy Alliance Center to fight for you.” Lan Ruoxi was really in a good mood. She held Hong Dali tightly, refusing to let go. After all, Hong Dali was her only precious son. She would definitely not be able to leave him for a while.
Both of them chatted for a while and Lan Ruoxi suddenly kicked Hong Weiguo who was quietly smoking beside. “Old man, are you dumb? You only know how to smoke. Why don’t you say something?”
“Ah? Say something?” Hong Weiguo clearly felt uneasy. He was a man, after all. He did not express his feelings freely like his wife. But his pride, Hong Dali, had returned. It was certainly worth saying something. He stood up and sat beside Hong Dali. After a long time, he finally said, “Come home often.”
One statement, all the words he wanted to say expressed in one statement.
Come home often.
Hong Dali hugged Hong Weiguo without saying a word and chuckled. “Father.”
Hong Weiguo’s tears welled up.
“Aiya, this virtual world is really like the real world. Something got into my eye.” Hong Weiguo rubbed his eyes and took out his cigarette to offer Hong Dali one. “One?”
“One!” Hong Dali took the cigarette and started smoking together.
Lan Ruoxi winked at Hong Weiguo with all her might, but Hong Weiguo was oblivious to it. After they finished their cigarette, Hong Weiguo asked, “Dali ah, you’re not young anymore. Shouldn’t you start planning for the future?”
“Ah? What future?” Hong Dali was a little dull. That could mean a lot of things. Future? What’s there in the future?
“Forget it, I can’t rely on you.” Lan Ruoxi pulled Hong Dali’s hand. “You stayed there with Xinxin and Nianwei. During this period of time, did you do it?”
Do it? Do what?
“What is it exactly?” Hong Dali said vehemently. “We are doing very well there. Do what?”
“Little rascal!” Lan Ruoxi ferociously stepped on Hong Dali’s foot. “What else can be done, of course it’s the matter of making babies! You’re already an adult at eighteen years old. It’s time for a girlfriend. There are so many beautiful ladies beside you, and Tang Muxin is your fiancée. Can’t you spare a thought for your mother’s feelings? You should at least have done one of them!”
Damn, have you seen a mother that talked to her son in this way? The extent of her concern is really…
