It had been a long time since he last played, so Ethan He was a little tempted. After he agreed, Dylan Shang called him again: "Wait."
Xiaoxian Ajin: "Hmm?"
Dylan Shang: "You are about to level up."
Ethan He saw that it was true. Another 500 or 600 experience points would allow him to reach level 30... What was level 30? A Sanxian?
Dylan Shang said: "The Gods and Demons have been revamped. There are two ways to go when you reach level 30. If you have enough experience when doing the task later, remember to choose the second one to upgrade."
Ethan He did not doubt the "expert's" suggestion, and he even felt a little guilty about it, so he said "OK" and ran towards Magpie Bridge.
The Magpie Bridge was very long. When Ethan He stood in front of the Weaver Girl, Dylan Shang was only a small figure in the distance. The distance between the two was beyond the talking range, so even if they spoke, he could not hear.
Ethan He right-clicked "Vega" and a pop-up window popped up on the screen---
Ten Questions for Husband and Wife: Click Prepare to start the task.
Your husband Dylan Shang Wuqing is ready, the mission begins!
Question 1: Where was the place where you and Dylan Shang Wu Qing first met?
a. Tongling Mountain; b. Initial Village; c. Initial Village Mountain; d. Other (please fill in ____ here)
Countdown: 10, 9, 8, ...
This question was extremely simple. Ethan He pressed c. After a pleasant sound effect, the system prompted that the answer was the same. Xiaoxian Ajin gained 100 experience points!
Question 2: What is your favorite dish?
a. Sweet and sour pork; b. Sweet and sour pork tenderloin; c. Sweet and sour spare ribs; d. Others (please fill in ____ here)
Hey, there was actually his favorite dish in the options. Ethan He pressed c and heard the sound effect of increasing experience again - Dylan Shang also guessed it right!
Question 3: What is your favorite song?
a. You were a teenager; b. An imperfect child; c. Who do you think of when you are lonely; d. Other (please fill in ____ here)
Ethan He was puzzled... Why were all the questions about himself? And the options were all very old songs. Although he liked some more now, for the sake of higher accuracy, Ethan He still chose one from the first three.
System: The answers are consistent! You gained 300 experience points!
Then the screen flashed with golden light---
System: Dear fairy Ajin, congratulations on reaching level 30!
...Upgraded!!!
As Dylan Shang said, the system popped up a selection box. On the left was an icon of a person, and on the right was an icon of a person and a beast. Ethan He subconsciously clicked the second one, and another message flashed on the screen congratulating him on cultivating a pet. Ethan He didn't have time to read it carefully because the countdown to the next question had already begun - Question 4: How do you think he loves you?
a. Play with you; b. Help you level up; c. Give you gifts; d. Accompany you to see the scenery
...Play together?
System: The answers are consistent! You get 400 experience points!
With more and more experience, Ethan He was very happy. It seemed that he and Dylan Shang had a high degree of sensitivity...
Question 5: What gift would you most like to receive from him/her?
a. Artifact; b. Gold Coin; c. Rose; d. Other (please fill in ____ here)
In fact, he didn't want any gifts, and he wasn't too interested in the first three. If he had to say, Ethan He thought the Dylan Shang mount was pretty cool... Not sure what his mindset was, but Ethan He filled in "Lieyan Qiongqi" in option d, and while hesitating, he clicked Submit under the urging of the countdown.
...It's over. I seem to have been a little impulsive. Now Dylan Shang's answer will definitely be different from mine.
Unexpectedly, the system displayed "the answers are consistent" again!
Ethan He was stunned. Did Dylan Shang also write "Lie Yan Qiong Qi"? This is too amazing!
There is no time to be stunned, the next question will come out soon---
Question 6: What is Dylan Shang Wu Qing’s favorite color?
a. Black; b. Blue; c. Red; d. Other (please fill in ____ here)
Ethan He was stunned when he saw this question. Finally, it was Dylan Shang's turn to ask!
But...what color does Dylan Shang like?
Ethan He recalled the other party's bird and mount, all of which were flaming, and his clothes also seemed to have fire patterns, could it be red? But he seemed to be wearing a black cape, so was it A or C? Or C...
System: Wrong answer! Dylan Shang Wu Qing's favorite color is --- b, blue
The blue-clothed loli on the screen spat out a mouthful of blood, and her health bar dropped by 15.
Ethan He: ...
Question 7: Which of the following descriptions do you think best fits Dylan Shang Wuqing’s character?
a. Mature and calm; b. Innocent and enthusiastic; c. Simple and honest; d. Dark and perverted
Ethan He: Uh, innocent and enthusiastic?
System: Wrong answer! Dylan Shang Wu Qing thinks the most suitable character for him is --- d. Dark-bellied pervert
Ethan He: ...Is this true or not!
The blue-clothed Lolita gulped down another old blood, and her health bar dropped by 15 again...
Question 8: What does Dylan Shang Wu Qing most want to hear you call him?
a. Dylan Shang; b. Great God; c. Husband; d. Other (please fill in ____ here)
When Ethan He saw the third option, his face turned red and he chose option a with an ostrich mentality.
As expected, the system displays "wrong answer". Dylan Shang Wu Qing most wants you to call him "c, husband"!
Ethan He: ...
Question 9: Will you and he/she develop into a real-life couple?
a. Yes; b. No; c. Let’s see how they look; d. They are already a couple in real life
Ethan He: Yes, definitely not...
System: Wrong answer! Dylan Shang Wuqing's choice is ---a. Yes.
Ethan He: ...
There are only 15 health bars left! You must not make any mistakes on the last question. No matter what the question is, choose an answer that will please Dylan Shang!
Question 10: What gift does Dylan Shang Wu Qing most want to receive?
a. Lieyan Qiongqi; b. Gold coins; c. Roses; d. Others (please fill in ____ here)
Hey, isn't this the third question I just answered? How come the answer I filled in is also included in the backup options? Could it be that this task has a built-in memory function?
Which one to choose...
Dylan Shang, a great man who is on the wealth ranking list, must not be short of money. As for Rose, he is not a woman, so he probably won't like her...Others? Ethan He couldn't guess!
Or choose A? According to the law of "telepathy", maybe Dylan Shang will choose the same answer as he did just now...but Lieyan Qiongqi already has it!
Countdown: 4, 3, 2, ...
It’s over. There’s no time to worry about it. Ethan He gritted his teeth and clicked A!
System: Wrong answer! Dylan Shang Wu Qing's choice is --- d. Other (you)
System: You are dead, mission failed!
System: In this task, you answered 5 questions correctly and 5 questions incorrectly, and your telepathy index increased by 0.
Ethan He: ...
The blue-clothed Lolita bled to death and fell to the ground as her original form. On the gray screen, the Magpie Bridge broke, and the rubble fell into the lake, creating waves of whirlpools...
An icon appeared in the upper left corner of the screen, indicating that the character's position was locked for 15 minutes. Ethan He was trapped on Caifeng Island.
He couldn't hear anything. He only saw Dylan Shang standing on the other side of the lake, seemingly facing him. Because they were husband and wife, the other party couldn't move either. They could only look at each other from a distance.
Ten questions and ten answers, Dylan Shang answered all the questions related to himself correctly, such as his favorite food, favorite songs... If Ethan He could say that the other party guessed it correctly after answering one, then the "gift" he filled in by himself could not be explained by luck at all.
All I can say is that they have done questions like this before, the system has memorized the answers, and Dylan Shang has also memorized them, just like Ethan He got first place in the class and wanted to go to Hua University. This person has remembered these details for eight years.
But Ethan He didn't answer any of the questions related to the Dylan Shang correctly...
He felt mixed emotions.
The friend list flickered. It was a message from Dylan Shang. Ethan He hesitated for a long time before clicking it. Dylan Shang was ruthless: "I've been waiting for you to come online for eight years, Ah Jin."
Ethan He: ...
There was no other confession or explanation, just this simple sentence - I'm waiting for you to come online. However, Ethan He felt a shock all over his body, and his fingertips on the keyboard trembled...
This sentence completely dug out Ethan He's ostrich head that had been buried in the sand.
---Dylan Shang is really waiting for him, and she even wants to develop a real relationship with him!
But, but I am a man! It's just a game, why take it so seriously... Is it that serious?
↑I really want to say this to Dylan Shang, but I can’t open my mouth.
Faced with an online friend's eight-year wait and this strange affection, Ethan He felt as if a pair of hands were strangling his throat, unable to utter a single sound.
I no longer think that the other person is funny, nor do I want to insult the other person by saying that he or she is mentally ill. I can't bear to pour a bucket of cold water on the other person at the moment when I meet him or her again, thus extinguishing the last spark of excitement.
Ethan He remained silent, and Dylan Shang did not say anything else. Seeing that the time for unlocking the immobilization was decreasing, Ethan He was so anxious that cold sweats broke out.
Fifteen minutes passed in a flash, and the Magpie Bridge reappeared.
Dylan Shang flew over from the other side of the lake. That’s right, he didn’t walk over the bridge, but flew up directly with his wings flapping… The purple-glowing devil wings and the red-flaming firebird that followed him…
This is the number one demon lord "Dylan Shang Wuqing" in the server, not the little follower "Dylan Shang" in Ethan He's memory.
Watching the figure on the screen flying closer and closer, he quit the game with shaking hands... very cowardly, very cowardly...
...going offline.
orz...

※The Past of the Spiritual Immortal※ (VII)
The first voice conversation between Ethan He and Dylan Shang after they got married in the game, Ethan He found that Dylan Shang was a little strange.
"Why are you so quiet today?" In the past, Dylan Shang always had endless things to say every time he spoke on the phone.
Chase Qin: "Hmm... is there?"
Ethan He: "No?"
Chase Qin: ...
Ethan He ignored him and dragged him to do the couple's task. The voice chat at that time was still done with software outside the game, so it would not be blocked.
This was the first time Ethan He did this kind of question-and-answer session, and he still found it quite fresh. However, since he had the "cheating" tool turned on, he was certainly not afraid of making mistakes.
After the task begins, whoever asks the question will give the answer and let the other person choose the same one.
There was a question asking Ethan He what gift he wanted. There were options like gold coins, fashion, roses, etc. Ethan He was not interested in any of them at first glance. Oh, no, he was a little interested in gold coins, but Dylan Shang was also very poor.
Ethan He: "I think a mount is better, but typing is too troublesome, so I'll just pick one at random, a."
Chase Qin: "Oh... Jin, don't you like flowers?"
The roses in the game have to be purChase Qind with RMB points. Once you receive the roses, you can be on "TV" (← the so-called world announcement). There is also a list of players who receive the most roses every day, which is a symbol of the female players' competition for status.
Ethan He: "What's the use of flowers? I like horses, they're so cool!"
Chase Qin: ...
It is indeed his Ah Jin, who is different from others!
There was another question, asking Dylan Shang how he wanted to be called by Ethan He...
Ethan He read out the answers: "Dylan Shang? Great God? Handsome guy? Husband?"
Hearing the word "husband", Chase Qin's face instantly turned red like a tomato...
Ethan He: "Which one do you like?"
Chase Qin: "That..."
Ethan He: "Which one?"
After hesitating for a long time, Chase Qin still felt embarrassed and said weakly: "Master..."
Ethan He: "Oh, I will call you God from now on, keep going God."
Chase Qin: ...
In fact, he really wanted to hear Jin call him "husband"~ (tt)
