Transmigrating Rookie Misses Home

Chapter 9: The Newbie Transmigrator Misses Home

A few days before school started, Wang Yue returned to the dorm to find his roommates there, each busy with their own things while chatting.

Boss Huang Tao said with some emotion, "I feel like this summer vacation was incredibly fulfilling."

The other brothers sighed in agreement. Second Brother chimed in, "Before I started working, I just thought working wasn't that tiring and didn't understand it at all. Turns out, working for just over a month this summer, even at a relaxed startup like Xiao Nai's, was exhausting enough."

Good kid Fourth Brother also said, "I felt pretty tired after just one month. I don't know how my parents managed to work for so many years."

Listening to their discussion, Wang Yue couldn't help but mutter to himself, Isn't it all for a living? But what is living for? Before I transmigrated, I was a slacker for nearly ten years and never figured it out.

This Slacker Transmigration System is probably meant to help a slacker like me turn things around. When I was lying too comfortably, heaven couldn't stand it.

"With school starting in just a few days, why don't we go out for a drink? How long has it been since we went out for skewers and drinks together!" Wang Yue was lost in thought when Second Brother Jia Honghai suddenly slapped his bed, grabbing everyone's attention, and voiced his idea.

"Alright! Let's go to KO's place. I'll go. KO isn't there anymore, is their food still good?" Fourth Brother immediately followed up.

"Then let's find another place!" Boss frowned in thought, but still couldn't figure out a good alternative.

"I'll ask Brother Hao Mei!" Fourth Brother Liu Wei, whose ideas were always simple, grabbed his phone and called Hao Mei.

Seeing that he was calling Hao Mei, Wang Yue knew this might turn into a company gathering, so he quickly took out his phone and invited Er Xi.

After all, although Xiao Nai was scheming, he was good at handling people. After all, this fox had been pretending to be human for so many years, he had become a seasoned expert.

Sure enough, a short while later, Liu Wei happily announced that Hao Mei and the others would also be joining the gathering. They had already booked a private room at a hotel near University Town. Apparently, Xiao Nai was very satisfied with the name of the room, Qingyun Pavilion.

When the group arrived at the hotel, Wang Yue's mouth twitched involuntarily as he saw the name of the private room opposite Qingyun Pavilion. He immediately understood why Xiao Nai would be there. This taught Wang Yue another lesson: the art of going with the flow, played out masterfully. He figured even Wei Wei wouldn't find anything amiss.

At first, Wang Yue thought Xiao Nai would let Hao Mei pay, and he wouldn't have come. But then he underestimated how scheming Xiao Nai was, and his determination to protect what was his.

After entering the private room, while waiting for others, Fourth Brother Liu Wei and Boss were discussing the Jiuxuan across the hall.

Wang Yue sat down and heard Fourth Brother still giving Boss a detailed report of his eavesdropping findings.

"Boss. I just heard that the group across the hall is an offline gathering for a guild from the Imperial Capital Wind and Cloud server," Fourth Brother Liu Wei whispered to Huang Tao and Jia Honghai, as if afraid the people across the way might hear.

"Which guild?" Second Brother Jia Honghai asked.

"I think I heard the number one beauty, Xiao Yu Yaoyao!" As soon as Fourth Brother finished speaking, Hao Mei's ears perked up at the mention of Xiao Yu Yaoyao.

"What about Xiao Yu Yaoyao! I haven't been online in a long time, is there any new development?"

"Did Xiao Yu Yaoyao provoke Third Sister-in-law again?"

"..."

Several people who had arrived early in the room were quite excited. After all, she was the most beautiful woman in the game, but that was just a photo. What was she like in reality?

"The group across the hall is from A Chinese Ghost Story, and I heard someone mention Xiao Yu Yaoyao." Liu Wei, seeing the situation, revealed what he knew.

"I'm going to listen!" Yu Banshan's eyes lit up, and he opened the door, ready to go eavesdrop. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Xiao Nai about to open the door to the opposite room!

"Third Brother, I never thought you were this kind of Third Brother. You already have Junior Sister Weiwei! Stop messing around." Hao Mei followed behind Yu Banshan with an expression of disappointment.

"Third Brother, Qingyun Pavilion is this way!" Qiu Yonghou also kindly reminded him.

However, they didn't expect Xiao Nai to remain calm, his expression unchanged, and he replied with certainty, "That's right! I'm going in to pick up Weiwei!"

"Junior Sister Weiwei is in the other room?" Hao Mei's childlike face clearly showed the words, Are you kidding me?

The others also looked surprised, only Wang Yue instantly understood the situation. So the plot had already progressed to this point.

Thus, Wang Yue explained to everyone with an "I knew it" tone, "That makes sense! Otherwise, why would Xiao Nai choose to have the company dinner here!"

Everyone nodded in agreement, but this didn't dampen their enthusiasm; it only made them more excited.

Xiao Nai ignored them and sternly opened the door to Jiuxuan across the hall.

As he entered, a buzzing murmur of discussion could be heard from inside.

Then, Wei Wei's voice was heard, "My boyfriend is here, you guys continue. We'll leave first?"

At this moment, another female voice said, "Since your boyfriend is here, why don't you join us!"

"Yes! Yes," a group of people chimed in.

"No need, we're right next door. They're all waiting for us!"

A moment later, Wei Wei and Xiao Nai came out and entered Qingyun Pavilion with everyone else.

"No one across the hall can compare to Junior Sister Weiwei. No wonder Xiao Nai was worried and came straight here!" Yu Banshan, who had somehow slipped to the back, had already taken the opportunity to scout ahead.

"It's not as you say, they're all quite good!" Wei Wei said modestly.

"Senior Sister Weiwei, those people across the hall include Xiao Yu Yaoyao, who doesn't get along with you. You're walking into a tiger's den?" Fourth Brother Liu Wei worried unnecessarily.

"It's not as dangerous as you say. Today, I transformed into a Great God, and I easily neutralized their little tricks!" Wei Wei looked at Xiao Nai triumphantly, seeking praise.

"You showed some of my skill!" Xiao Nai was showering them with PDA at every opportunity.

Bei Weiwei said, "I didn't even need thirty percent of my strength to deal with them!"

"That's right! The red-clothed female swordsman Senior Sister Weiwei played was so heroic!"

"Yeah! Senior Sister Weiwei fought so well that others questioned her gender!"

The group livened up again, one after another, gradually shifting from discussing the game to work, and then to their aspirations for the future. The atmosphere grew more fervent, and the banquet was getting better and better.

Boss, Second Brother, and Fourth Brother were attending such a gathering for the first time. They were a bit reserved at first, but after a few rounds of drinks, they loosened up. After all, besides Wang Yue, most of the people in the room had just graduated and hadn't completely shed their student demeanor.

Wang Yue handled the situation with ease, making Xiao Nai look upon him even more favorably. After all, in Xiao Nai's eyes, Wang Yue had only just started his second year of university, yet he showed no signs of awkwardness in this situation.

No matter how brilliant Xiao Nai was, he could never have imagined that Wang Yue was a transmigrator who had been a slacker for ten years.

At this gathering, Wang Yue felt as if he had returned to his slacker life. At this moment, though he was somewhat reluctant, Wang Yue still missed home, missed his original world.
