The day before the holidays, Massacre OL’s official site released the news that Silent Words was voicing the new NPC, Qing Siyu. They also posted a cover of Massacre OL’s theme song, sung by a few of the more popular singers in the traditional-style song circle. In the middle of the song, there was a snippet of dialogue voiced by Yu Linling and Silent Words. It was clearly a result of post-production editing, because Xu Moyan had indeed voiced those lines, but they were only things the NPC said during in-game cutscenes. In other words, she had never recorded lines specifically for the theme song, and the same went for Yu Linling’s part.

Clearly, they had taken a few lines after the recordings and mashed them together.

Qing Siyu’s part talked about how deeply she missed Qi Shaofeng, from her shyness when they first met to her deep love for him when they confessed their feelings for each other. Finally, there was also her pain when she found out the truth, and her grief after Qi Shaofeng passed away. She was lost in her memories of him, and she swore an oath to never love another.

The Massacre movie ended after Qi Shaofeng dragged the eunuch down to their mutual deaths, and the hero killed the emperor on his throne. It never mentioned what happened to the ones who were left behind after.

On the other hand, Massacre OL showed what happened to Qing Siyu after her lover passed away. She remained single from then on, staying unmarried her whole life. Even if she would never see her lover again, her heart would be with him wherever she went.

As for Qi Shaofeng’s dialogue, it described his initial admiration of Qing Siyu when they first met, followed by his internal conflict when he could not confess his feelings due to his secret duty. He knew what she felt, but he did not dare to respond in kind, and it pained him deeply. Eventually, his love won over his rational mind, and he was determined to throw everything away, all so he could be with her. There was also his agony at never being the one to determine his own fate, as well as his exasperation and frustration at his destiny when he died.

Their dialogues were played at different intervals. Qing Siyu’s voice would rise whenever Qi Shaofeng’s fell silent, and just like that, they kept missing each other.

In the office, Xu Moyan could not resist but to listen to the song over her earphones. She could not tell that she was the one voicing Qing Siyu, because that voice was just so different from her usual speaking voice. She could barely make the connection at all.

To think her voice could also sound so good. When it laced with Wei Zilin’s voice, they were somehow perfectly in sync and harmony.

Both of them spoke those lines with plenty of emotion, so when she heard the helplessness in their lines, Xu Moyan’s heart twisted along with the characters’. She was completely caught in their emotions.

It was as though she had really become Qing Siyu, and Wei Zilin’s voice was so familiar that she instinctively thought of Qi Shaofeng as Wei Zilin.

As she listened, she grew so upset that it sapped the energy right out of her.

She secretly ran to the washroom to play the clip on repeat several times. The song sounded good, but she only ever replayed the dialogue.

Massacre OL Official: The most popular 2D couple, Yu Linling + Silent Words pour their hearts into their dubbing. Mrs. Yu Linling, Silent Words’ debut show. Do you want to hear more of Silent Words’ voice? Do you want to see Yu Linling reprising Qi Shaofeng? Do you want to give Qi Shaofeng and Qing Siyu a happy ending? Come play Massacre OL, and you’ll decide if Qi Shaofeng and Qing Siyu can end up together!

The more Xu Moyan looked at the words ‘Mrs. Yu Linling’, the more she liked it.

As expected, this post gave Xu Moyan’s Weibo account many tags and comments.

Since she was already involved in this, and since this was a favor for Nan Jingheng, Xu Moyan was practically obligated to share the post, be it professionally or personally.

Hence, she shared it once and added, “This is my first time dubbing something. I’m nervous but excited, so I hope y’all like it. Please give us your support.”

“Goddess, you sound great!”

“Now that we’ve heard the goddess’ voice, all that’s left is to see your face.”

“Is this what they mean by a wife following her husband?!”

“It has to be! My liege Yu Linling is voicing Qi Shaofeng, so the goddess went and voiced Qing Siyu. They’re lovers inside and outside the game, how sweet.”

However, the comments on the Massacre OL official Weibo page were not so positive.

“I heard that so-called Silent Words’ voiceover, and it’s just so-so. It can’t hold a candle to Yu Linling’s, they don’t match at all.”

“Shouldn’t you get a professional for these things? Even if you wanna make it viral, you should get a celeb. Silent Words is clearly riding on Yu Linling’s coattails to get this job. To be honest, her dubbing was meh.”

“Who knows how she managed to hook Yu Linling? She seems quite devious, I bet she fell for Yu Linling’s assets.”

“I heard that Qing Siyu’s VA was supposed to be Mo Xiaoqing. Qing-chan was the voice actor for Qing Siyu in the Massacre movie. Apparently, Nan Yin had contacted Mo Xiaoqing earlier too, but all of a sudden, she was replaced by Silent Words. They were clearly using Yu Linling to steal someone else’s job.”

“That person’s fans are crazy. Since when did Nan Yin contact her? Don’t be so high up your own butt, okay? So are you saying that every character in Massacre OL has to be voiced by the same person who did them in the movie? Unfortunately, that’s just not true. Other than Yu Linling reprising Qi Shaofeng, everyone else in Massacre OL got different VAs. Why don’t you just accuse all of them of stealing the others’ jobs?”

“Mo Xiaoqing isn’t that great a VA, okay? She managed to get the job for Massacre because she sucked up to a senior in the industry and got back-door access. After that, she had beef with that senior and they broke up. Do you want me to spill the tea? Mo Xiaoqing has a terrible personality, so don’t try to kidnap the convo here anymore.”

“I heard that Mo Xiaoqing hasn’t been getting a lot of gigs lately. She’s getting desperate, eh? That’s why she wants to use this incident for exposure.”

“I always thought the biggest failure in the OG Massacre voices was Mo Xiaoqing. You’re saying Silent Words can’t match up to Yu Linling? HAHAHA, what a joke. I don’t think any voice in the circle can match Yu Linling’s. Silent Words’ voice is gentle and soft, so it fits Qing Siyu perfectly. Besides, the two of them are actually a couple, so they have a chemistry that gives their voices this indescribable chemistry. Mo Xiaoqing’s voice back then just made me wonder why Qi Shaofeng would ever like Qing Siyu.”

“As though Mo Xiaoqing could ever match Yu Linling’s voice. Forget matching, the difference between them is like 100 Silent Words’s, okay?”

Xu Moyan never thought that a mere voiceover could lead to such a heated argument.

Still, this was not the time for her to voice out, so she just turned off Weibo and went back to work.

Once she turned her attention back to her work, she quickly forgot about what was happening on Weibo.

Wei Zilin had booked her a train ticket back to Jin City, scheduled for early Qingming morning. Since Jin City was so close to B City, it only took half an hour by the high-speed train. If she took the plane, she would have to transit, and it would take her a few hours or even a whole day.

Xu Moyan sat on the train, and it began to move slowly, the scenery outside slowly picking up speed as it retreated into the distance.

Not long after the train left the station, she received a call from Wei Zilin.

He told her that he would be done by the afternoon, and he had already booked a plane ticket for 3.10 pm, so he would be able to land at about 5 pm.

“Alright, then I’ll go pick you up.” Xu Moyan’s eyes curved into crescents. Wei Zilin completed his work earlier than she expected.

This way, he would arrive at Jin City on the first day, too, so there was not much of a difference.

Wei Zilin had to squeeze out some time to call her, so after he said “okay” with a laugh, he hurriedly hung up.

Xu Moyan did not even have the time to ask about the weariness in his voice. Once she reached home, she thought, she would buy some ingredients at the grocery store to make soup and help Wei Zilin regain his energy.

Not long after Wei Zilin hung up, she received a call from her mother, Li Lanying.

Although Jin City was close by, it was still only a short holiday of three days. The tickets were not easy to buy, either, so she usually did not go home for Qingming. She only went back during the seven-day holidays, and sometimes she would drop by for a visit on the weekends too, avoiding peak seasons like the short holidays.

It was because everyone wanted to go on a trip during the short holidays, but they did not have the time to go too far, so they could only aim for some nearby cities.

Jin City was one of the more popular destinations, so it was hard to buy tickets and the place was always crowded.

This time, they were going back because Wei Zilin wanted to meet her parents. In the past, her parents had nagged her head off over this, and now that she had a boyfriend, Xu Moyan felt like she had a boost of confidence, and she was no longer scared.

Instead, she wanted to give her parents a surprise, ambushing them with this news by suddenly appearing before them.

All these years, she rarely ever thought of doing something so mischievous, so she really looked forward to their reactions.

Xu Moyan picked up. “Hey, Mom.”

“Moyan, your dad’s in the hospital,” Li Lanying said across the phone.

“What? Is he seriously ill?” Xu Moyan was shocked, and her heart immediately sank.

“It’s nothing, don’t worry. If it was really serious, I wouldn’t dare to tell you. He just injured his waist and can’t move, so now he’s recuperating in the hospital,” Li Lanying said, and Xu Moyan heaved a sigh of relief.

“I just thought that today happens to be a holiday, that’s why I dared to tell you. If you can, come back and visit him,” Li Lanying said.

It looked like the surprise was not going to work. Xu Moyan said, “I’m on the train right now. Actually, I wanted to give you guys a surprise.”

Li Lanying was clearly surprised enough. If she had known… she would not have mentioned it…

“Which hospital is Dad in? I’ll go straight to the hospital once I get off the train,” Xu Moyan said.
