Please Sign: Your Runaway Wife Has Been Captured Chapter 17 When They First Met

That night, Zheng Xiaoguang chatted with Bluegreen-Clad for a long time. Somehow, she felt much more comfortable around Bluegreen-Clad than she did around Tong Xiangyang. She felt really awkward to talk to Tong Xiangyang during the dinner, but felt so free to talk to Bluegreen-Clad. She was not sure whether she perceived Bluegreen-Clad as just her husband in the game or as a good friend in her life.

　　When Zheng Xiaoguang went to sleep, Bluegreen-Clad looked at the clock. It was about 9 p.m. He thought that it was early. Thus he logged into Zheng Xiaoguang's game account "Flowing Light" to play the game.

　　In fact, he had met Flowing Light in the game a long time ago, when he had played the game using his friend's account "Never Deeply Attached".

　　It was about two weeks after the opening of Watery South. Back then, Bluegreen-Clad and Never Deeply Attached liked to gain levels together at night and download the instance data the next day. One night, Never Deeply Attached told Bluegreen-Clad that he did not have time to play and asked Bluegreen-Clad to gain some levels for him. Bluegreen-Clad promised his friend and logged into Never Deeply Attached's account when he finished gaining levels for himself.

　　He wanted to play instance NPC again to gain levels for Never Deeply Attached, but he needed at least two teammates to play this instance together. Only when he teamed up with another two players, he could open this instance again, and only by playing the instance with a team, he could gain more experience points for Never Deeply Attached. Besides, he had to slay a great number of small monsters before he could meet the powerful enemy in the instance. If his teammates could assist him in fighting the monsters, it would be a great thing for him. As such, he sent out a message on the Public Chat channel.

　　A moment later, some players teamed up with him, and one of them was Flowing Light.

　　When they opened the instance, the girls on his team marveled at his equipment.

　　[Team] Lazy Little Cat: Captain, you look fierce. I guess you can play this instance on your own. Can we just sit on the floor and watch you play?

　　Bluegreen-Clad never really expected them to help him. He just needed a team to open this instance. As such, he replied, "As you wish."

　　Upon seeing that, his teammates all sat on the floor and watched him playing by himself.

　　It was not very difficult to play this instance alone, since there was only one powerful enemy inside it. As the instance itself was at a low level, players could only unlock some low-level equipment here. At that time, there were no sects in the game, so there were only two types of equipment: non-magical equipment and magical equipment.

　　He was lucky that night. He unlocked a pair of non-magical blue boots by slaying a small monster and a magical blue belt, by slaying another one.

　　Nevertheless，when he fought the most powerful enemy in the instance, he nearly got killed. This was because he was not familiar with playing as an assassin in the game. Upon seeing that, most of his teammates remained unmoved, including the female magician Lazy Little Cat, who had just taken the magical blue belt from him. He guessed that they were probably away from the keyboard at the moment.

　　Suddenly, a female doctor named Flowing Light came up and added blood for him.

　　He discovered that she was not well-equipped and wanted to ask her to stay away to avoid being killed by the enemy. To his surprise, this low-level doctor was exceptionally skillful and helped him a lot.

　　In the end, they slew the enemy together and unlocked a magical purple sword.

　　Bluegreen-Clad immediately picked up the equipment and a Team message was automatically sent out by the system to inform all the team members of this incident. Upon seeing that, Lazy Little Cat cheered and begged him to give her the magical sword. As Never Deeply Attached was an assassin, who did not have any magical power, he was unable to use such a magical sword.

　　[Team] Lazy Little Cat: Dear Captain, please give this sword to me. I can sing a song for you on YY.

　　[Team Captain] Never Deeply Attached: You've just gotten the blue belt.

　　At that time, purple magical swords were quite rare in the game, and even Bluegreen-Clad himself did not have any purple equipment.

　　[Team] Lazy Little Cat: Please give it to me, dear captain, my generous captain. Thank you~~~

　　Lazy Little Cat was obviously one of those flirtatious girls who often asked a male player to give her equipment for free in the game. Bluegreen-Clad disliked such a girl, but he felt somewhat annoyed upon seeing her coquettish messages. He wanted to stop her by giving her the sword.

　　Right at this moment, he saw a Team message from Flowing Light.

　　[Team] Flowing Light: [Humph] Honey, didn't you promise to give me this magical sword? What? Do you want to give it to some other girl when I'm still alive?!

　　Bluegreen-Clad was surprised, as he did not know this Flowing Light at all.

　　The next second, he received a Private Chat message from Flowing Light: "Captain, if you don't want to give her the purple sword, you can just give me an answer on the Team channel."

　　Upon seeing that, Bluegreen-Clad immediately understood what Flowing Light intended to do. He smiled and replied to her message on the Team channel.

　　[Team] Never Deeply Attached: Yes, it's yours.

　　Game Message: Team Captain Never Deeply Attached assigns a Wildwave Sword to Flowing Light.

　　Lazy Little Cat felt embarrassed and remained silent afterwards. When the team left the instance, she immediately quit the team and fled.

　　The other team members also quit the team one after another until only Flowing Light was left in the team. Game Message: Flowing Light applies to trade a Wildwave Sword with Bluegreen-Clad.

　　Bluegreen-Clad rejected it directly.

　　A Wildwave Sword was a piece of purple equipment. In this game, once a character was equipped with something purple or golden, he or she would start to glow. As such, purple and golden weapons were also referred to as "luminous weapons" and favored by female players. However, if the levels of these purple and golden weapon were low, they were quite impractical. Bluegreen-Clad thought that it was meaningless to spend money forging such a low-grade and impractical weapon, and he did not want to sell it or just leave it in his warehouse. He would rather give it to Flowing Light than give it to some players that he disliked.

　　This was why he had decided to give the purple sword to her just now.

　　When her trading request was rejected by Bluegreen-Clad, Flowing Light directly threw the sword back to him and said, "Well, I give it back to you for free! I pretended to be your wife and asked you to give me the sword on the Team channel just now, because I didn't like that Lazy Little Cat. You could just give an answer to me without really giving me the sword. Didn't you worry that I would quit the team and flee with the sword after getting it? What a fool!"

　　With these words, Flowing Light quit the team and left. Bluegreen-Clad even did not have time to add her as a friend. He kept the Wildwave Sword afterwards.
