The Return of the God Level Assassin [BL]

ALTHOUGH he said entertain, Luo Yan would really just go from box to box, say some simple welcoming words and then introduce the membership card. Since his identity right now was an NPC, it wouldn't be weird for him to greet the guests personally. Especially since his NPC identity was the administrator of the pavilion. Administrators were the NPC in charged of the various businesses in the game that was not owned by players.

He walked out of the back stage through a hidden door. He went first to Madam Ru and told her to let other NPCs bring a couple of small bottles of green plum wine. The number was exactly the same as the number of occupied private boxes on the second floor right now. Out of all the wines available in the pavilion, this one was the most delicious. Not overly sweet and also not overly bitter with a little bit of tangy taste that came from the green plum. But it also left some kind of kick to everyone who tasted it. 

He purposely didn't put it on the menu. To have its value alleviated by a notch. He wanted this wine to be the pavilion's signature wine. The best way to do that was to introduce it now. So, with a couple of NPCs in tow, he climbed up the second floor.

Luo Yan knocked on the first box and said in a soft voice, "Distinguished guest, may this humble one come in?"

"Go ahead," said a serene male voice inside, hearing it would immediately bring calmness to whoever heard it. 

Before entering, Luo Yan took a tray with a small bottle of green plum wine on it from one of the NPCs behind him. Then he opened the door and entered inside. He raised his head and quickly glanced at the person inside.

It was a male player wearing an ancient white robe. His long black hair was tied on top of his head with a jade crown. His features were delicate with white skin and red lips. His eyes were closed while tapping his finger on the table in tune with the music being performed on the stage. He seemed to be enjoying the performance. With his appearance, he definitely didn't look out of place sitting in such an ancient setting. 

If Luo Yan remembered correctly, this guy was the top Alchemist in the game – Bian Que. He arranged him here while the top Blacksmith was arranged in the private box right next to this one. 

He bowed. Making his movements all soft and gentle, as if he was a real lady. "On behalf of Yuexing Pavilion, this humble one welcomes you. As a form of gratitude, please have this hundred-year green plum wine. It's one of the prides of our pavilion." He put the bottle on the table. "If you are satisfied with our courtesans' performances, as well as our pavilion's services, you may avail yourself with a membership card that would allow you to visit the pavilion once it officially opened to the public."

Gu Ye, also known as Bian Que in the game, finally opened his eyes. He glanced at the NPC wearing an elegant red robe. Even with the lower part of 'her' face covered, he could tell that this NPC was beautifully designed. Even 'her' voice was programmed nicely. It could be seen that the game developers really put a lot of thought in this pavilion. Not to mention, the dishes that were served to him were all delicious. Even the tea he ordered had a unique taste to it. If he added the wonderful music those NPCs on the stage were playing, this could really be considered as a wonderful place. He had no doubt that it would definitely be a big hit among the players. 

He was still contemplating if he should continue on with his plan. But being here for just a couple of minutes, he finally made up his mind. 

"Are you the administrator of this pavilion?" he asked with a gentle smile on his face.

Luo Yan wondered why this player suddenly asked him that. But he's an NPC right now, so, whatever was asked to him, he should answer politely. "Yes, this humble one is the administrator."

"I have a business proposal to you. I'll visit tomorrow morning exactly at 8 o'clock to discuss it further," Bian Que said it in a gentle voice but there was no place for rejection in it.

Luo Yan did his best not to show any excessive reaction. After all, he's an 'NPC' right now. He racked his brain and remembered one of the things he read on the forum before. That players could indeed work with existing businesses in the game. Most of the players who did that were either Alchemists or Blacksmiths. They let their potions and weapons be sold on Pharmacies and Weapon's shops. And in turn those business establishments would get a percentage of the sale. 

This guy was an Alchemist. What exactly would he want to be sold in his pavilion?

"This humble one apologized but we are not open in the morning. Would it be alright to instead move the time to 6 o'clock in the evening instead?" he said without any change in his voice and expression.

"I have no problem with that."

"Then this humble one will expect you tomorrow evening."

After that, Luo Yan bowed elegantly and walked out of the room. Although he was curious as to what kind of business deal that Alchemist would propose, there's still a lot of things he should do tonight. So, he temporarily put it at the back of his mind.

He then walked to the next private box. He knocked and said gently, "Distinguished guest, may this humble one come in?" 

"Come in," said a low male voice. The volume was not that high so Luo Yan barely heard it.

Just like earlier, he took a tray from an NPC with a small bottle of wine on it before entering the room. He raised his head and he almost drop the ray he was holding when he saw the person sitting inside.

It was a male player with messy black hair and a pair of sharp black eyes. With just one look, anyone could immediately tell that this was a very handsome guy. But the problem was, this person looked exactly like someone Luo Yan knew. His very shy new friend. The similarity was so uncanny that he was sure this person couldn't be anyone else but that said friend. 

"Jiao Jiao?" he exclaimed unbelievingly.
