Black Tech Internet Cafe System

“Hehe!” After leading her big brother and his two guards into the game and getting them on the path of ‘addiction’, Jiang Xiaoyue was quite happy. While she looked at Jiang Xuan who was engrossed in the game, she hummed while she skipped around, “Don’t need to go to school! Don’t need to go to school!”

“Aya!” she exclaimed when she skipped past Mr. Fang.

“Boss, why did you grab my collar?!” She looked back and glared at Mr. Fang in anger.

“Did I say that you don’t have to go to school?” Mr. Fang said solemnly.

“Ugh?!” Jiang Xiaoyue gaped and looked at Fang Qi in surprise.

“What do you mean by ‘Ugh’?!” Sitting on the couch, Mr. Fang looked serious, which was quite rare.

“I’m doing fine in the shop. Why should I go to school?” Jiang Xiaoyue snorted and said, “What’s so good about going to school? I can learn more here.”

“Of course, you can learn more in this shop than in school,” Mr. Fang said, “So you plan to watch the shop for me all your life?

“If you do, you must stay here while I go out and have fun,” Mr. Fang said.

“No!” Jiang Xiaoyue disagreed immediately while shouting, “I want to go out and play too!”

She got suspicious. After making several turns around Mr. Fang, she said in pleasant surprise, “Boss, do you plan to go out for fun?! I want to go too!”

Although she wouldn’t be able to eat the delicious snacks while being out to play, it was a bit boring sometimes to sit at the counter each day playing games and act as a cashier. Sometimes, she indeed wanted to go out and check around.

However…

“What does it to do with going to school?!” Jiang Xiaoyue said, “The Heavenly Academy is so far away! I might not be able to come back if I go there!”

It was difficult to make the journey back. She would have to cover the distance from the Heavenly Academy to the border where she had to be teleported to the Deserted Sea Realm through a special teleportation array. After which she must journey across the vast ocean to get to Dajin. One trip from the Heavenly Academy to Dajin would be tough.

It would be fine if she just went back home. However, if she went to school, she would have to do all kinds of boring and tedious homework. It was hard to say when she would get a chance to come back here.

“Please, I don’t want to go…” With a pout, the little girl grabbed Mr. Fang’s hand and begged and acted cute.

Mr. Fang was unmoved. “When I was your age, I was a Tri-Merit Student each year.”

[TL Note: In China, the ‘tri-merit’ student honor system tries to incentivize the students to obtain virtues of good morals, hard study, and sporting excellence.]

“Humph! What Tri-Merit Student?! You were still an elementary school student!” Jiang Xiaoyue ran to Jiang Xuan’s side after stomping her foot.

Jiang Xuan who was gaming saw Jiang Xiaoyue’s sulky face and said angrily, “Little Sister, did anyone bully you? Don’t worry; I’ll teach them a lesson for you!”

“It’s the damn, despicable boss!” Jiang Xiaoyue yelled, stomping her foot.

“Your boss…” Jiang Xuan was puzzled. “Weren’t you two on the same boat just a moment ago, and you even ditched me, your big brother?!”

“The boss told me to go to school! Sob…” Jiang Xiaoyue felt like crying. She had finally stopped her big brother from taking her home and making her to go to school, but now her boss betrayed her!

It was infuriating.

“Hahahaha!” Jiang Xuan was pleased. Despite my admiration for Brother Fang’s deep cultivation strength, powerful spiritual spells, and combat techniques, I thought he was unreasonable. But now, I know that I misunderstood him.

“Mr. Fang is a hero with a generous mind and great determination!” he quickly sang high praises of Fang Qi.

Then, he said, “I’ve just tried this Devil May Cry 3, and it’s indeed good. However, you’re still young, and there are many things that you can’t learn from the games, such as how to deal with people in society and life experiences. Besides, the elders in the Heavenly Academy will teach you according to your talent and interest and show you a system of detailed knowledge of everything. Tell me, Little Sister, how much of the blue flame of time in Devil May Cry 3 can you understand?”

Jiang Xiaoyue scratched her head in embarrassment. “It’s fuzzy. I can use it in the game but can understand nothing about it once I’m out of the game.”

“That’s what I mean,” Jiang Xuan said seriously. “You must start from the beginning. It’s not easy to understand a high-level law of nature.”

“Besides, the cultivation method of our Jiang Family is the result of hard efforts of many generations, and it’s the most fitting cultivation method for our bloodline; it is the origin of our Jiang Family, and we can’t just dump it just because.”

Jiang Xiaoyue seemed to have vaguely understood the reasons, but she just refused to go to school; she was on the verge of throwing a tantrum.

At this moment, she smelled the fragrance of spicy sticks.

Mr. Fang handed her a box of spicy sticks and said, “Eat some spicy sticks to calm yourself down.”

“Humph!” She averted her small face away from him.

Mr. Fang began eating with loud noises. “Wow… The spicy fragrance… The special flavor of the gluten and the crispness of the sesame seeds… It’s so tasty!”

A foodie, Jiang Xiaoyue couldn’t bear it anymore. “I want to eat! I want to eat!”

She wanted to grab the box of spicy sticks from Mr. Fang and eat everything herself.

“But…” While eating spicy sticks, she said with misery, “If I go to school, I can’t eat such tasty spicy sticks anymore!”

“I’ve decided,” Mr. Fang said with great passion, “My internet café will go out of the Deserted Sea Realm and enter the world stage!”

“!!!” Jiang Xiaoyue exclaimed in astonishment, “Boss, what did you say?!”

“I said that I plan to open internet cafés outside of the Deserted Sea Realm and enter the world stage!” Mr. Fang declared.

“Ahh!” Jiang Xiaoyue exclaimed, “Does it mean that I can play games and eat snacks after school?”

“Work hard on your sword control technique.” Mr. Fang said, “I think… it can be done.”

“Okay!” Jiang Xiaoyue finally relented. “Then, I’ll go to school reluctantly!”

Jiang Xuan wiped the sweat off his forehead in relief.

Also, he silently gave Mr. Fang a thumbs-up.

Mr. Fang finally coaxed the girl to agree to go to school!

At the same time, after hearing Mr. Fang’s declaration, he immediately asked, “Sir, you have a plan to open a branch?”

“Of course.” If there was no net, how could it be called the internet?

Mr. Fang began to imagine the scenario in which all the places in the world were connected by internet.

By that time, the big online games could be really called online games.

From the looks of it now, he still had a long way to go.

“Boss, when should we go out and open the branch?” Obviously, Jiang Xiaoyue couldn’t wait to begin.

Mr. Fang asked, “When will you go to that kindergarten?”

“Kinder…garten?!” Jiang Xiaoyue asked, “What is that? I’m going to the Heavenly Academy!”

“Ugh… Heavenly Kindergarten?” Mr. Fang scratched his head.

Jiang Xiaoyue was at a loss for words.

“In the spring of next year,” Jiang Xuan said, “The Heavenly Academy will start its new school year in the spring of next year.”

“Then, I’ll make some preparations and go there before spring.”
