Chapter 120 Hehehehehe

Yan Qing: ......

An Jin glared at him: "What, you don't want to go?"

Yan Qing: "Go."

An Jin nodded in satisfaction, reached out and gave Yan Qing's chest muscles a quick rub, then finished her perfunctory reply to Pei Ning and went to watch the live stream of the offline match.

The offline tournament on Saturday was extremely intense, lasting from 7 p.m. until midnight before the four teams that would play in the finals on Sunday were determined.

Jiang Jinhan and others watched the match live while analyzing their opponents' situations.

They are all top performers on their respective platforms, and each of them has a unique skill. They discuss things for a long time in the live stream, but all they do is create some smokescreens to see if they can fool some idiots.

After watching the match, An Jin was about to end the broadcast when Jiang Jinhan stopped her, saying he had something to tell her.

"What's up?"

An Jin asked Jiang Jinhan with a puzzled look on her face.

"It's nothing serious."

Jiang Jinhan said, "Breadman and I were thinking that since everyone is already here, why don't we wait until the competition is over and then go have some fun around S City?"

Traveling, huh?

An Jin thought about it and still refused.

"Let's play sometime next time. I haven't been able to stream properly lately because of the competition. So many viewers are waiting for me. If I go out to play, I won't be able to stream anymore."

Besides.

After what happened with Yan Qing and Pei Ning, An Jin wasn't blind.

Even if she was slow to realize, she could tell that Jiang Jinhan had feelings for her.

Although she didn't dislike Jiang Jinhan.

However, An Jin has been surrounded by too many romantic entanglements lately. Yan Qing and the clingy Pei Ning alone have already made her a mess, and now with Jiang Jinhan on the other hand, An Jin really feels like she can't handle it all.

Hearing An Jin say this, Jiang Jinhan suddenly became dejected.

However, he was clearly easier to deal with than Yan Qing and Pei Ning, probably because he hadn't experienced the harsh realities of love. When An Jin rejected him, he looked like a pitiful, wet white rabbit that had accidentally fallen into the water, making people feel sorry for him.

"All right."

Jiang Jinhan said, "Then let's go play together next time we have time."

An Jin hummed in agreement: "Sure, I'm not going to talk to you anymore. I'm too tired. I'm going to go to sleep after the broadcast. See you tomorrow."

Jiang Jinhan replied softly, "See you tomorrow."

An Jin's live stream went dark. Many viewers were engrossed in watching the gossip when they didn't expect An Jin to leave so quickly, without even saying goodbye to the chat, and ended the stream at lightning speed.

After the broadcast ended, An Jin planned to rest for a while.

Unexpectedly, just a few minutes after she ended her live stream, her phone started banging on the floor as if it was about to explode, and she was lying on the coffee table in the living room, calling out to her departed soul.

An Jin, who was lying in Yan Qing's arms and receiving a massage from him, picked up her phone in frustration. Seeing Pei Ning urging her on the other end, she got up from the sofa in annoyance.

"Damn it, this is so sticky! I'm going to change my clothes. Qingqing, wait for me."

Yan Qing nodded, and after An Jin changed her clothes, the two went to the hotel's coffee shop.

————

On the other side.

Pei Ning and Xue Mingyue, who had been waiting in the coffee shop for a long time, almost choked on their coffee when they saw Yan Qing accompanying An Jin.

Xue Mingyue's eyes widened: "Well, Lao Pei, do you think you're like a mistress from the old days, here to meet the matriarch today?"

Pei Ning pursed her lips, her face as black as ink.

Xue Mingyue was used to Pei Ning's stern face, and he was even adding fuel to the fire.

“Speak up, Lao Pei! Your darling is here, why are you silent now?”

Xue Mingyue smiled with her eyes crinkling, ignoring the venom he spewed from his mouth. Just by looking at her face, she appeared to be a refined gentleman.

Pei Ning gave Xue Mingyue a warning look.

"Shut your mouth."

Xue Mingyue: ?

What do you mean by that?

Pei Ning looked at An Jin and the other person who were slowly walking over, and said softly, "The literal meaning."

Xue Mingyue laughed in exasperation: "This is the first time I've seen you fawn over someone like this. She's just a female streamer, and you're already threatening me."

"What's wrong? Are you afraid I'll let something slip and her boyfriend will find out?"

Just as Xue Mingyue had grown accustomed to Pei Ning's stern face, Pei Ning had also grown accustomed to the hurtful words from Xue Mingyue's mouth.

He said calmly, "I just don't want to make things difficult for An An."

Xue Mingyue's lips twitched: "Old Pei, to be honest, the way you are now really scares me. You weren't like this before. How come you're acting like a Casanova now, with your whole heart on someone else?"

Pei Ning glanced at him: "You don't understand."

You won't understand the feeling of having your whole heart drawn to someone you've never truly invested in a relationship or fallen for.

Pei Ning knew perfectly well that he was not a good person, but then again, if he were a good person, how could he have gotten what he wanted so quickly?

There's a saying...

A forced relationship will not be sweet.

Pei Ning didn't care whether the melon was sweet or not; he just wanted to take it to his own home first.

Even if the melon isn't sweet, he can still eat it with sugar. In this era, money can get 99% of things done.

Xue Mingyue gagged in mid-air: "You beat Lao Pei."

Pei Ning ignored Xue Mingyue and called over a waiter from the coffee shop: "Bring me your menu."

Just as An Jin walked nervously (pretending to be) to Pei Ning and the other person, the waiter brought over the menu.

Perhaps because Yan Qing was present, Pei Ning behaved very politely during his meeting with An Jin.

Would you like something to drink?

Pei Ning personally handed the menu to An Jin and asked Yan Qing for her opinion in a calm tone.

Yan Qing met Pei Ning's subtly provocative gaze, and a cryptic smile appeared on her face.

He glanced down at the menu on the table and said coldly, "No need."

"Of course we need it, how can we not use it?"

Xue Mingyue said, "It's not easy to have another chance to see An'an, so please don't be shy, assistant."

Despite Xue Mingyue's constant anger towards Pei Ning, he has a friendship with Pei Ning spanning over ten or twenty years, and in times like this, he will definitely side with his own people.

The three men were openly and subtly at odds, but An Jin, noticing that Yan Qing was being targeted, immediately stepped in to smooth things over.

"Waiter, give him an iced Americano."

An Jin defended herself, saying, "Xiao Yan is currently trying to lose weight and basically doesn't eat anything at night."

Yan Qing, who was being protected, chuckled and said, "Yes, I'm sorry."

He was fine when he didn't speak, but as soon as he started talking, Pei Ning's face darkened.

Pei Ning felt a mix of bitterness, resentment, and anger. If An Jin, who was sitting opposite him, hadn't stepped on his calf, he would have immediately lost his temper.

"Mr. Yan works out regularly?" Xue Mingyue said sarcastically. "I didn't realize that."

Yan Qing: "Yes, I also need to protect An'an's safety, so I need to exercise occasionally to maintain my physical fitness."

His words really hit Pei Ning where it hurt.

Pei Ning found it incredibly difficult to even meet An Jin, while Yan Qing, on the other hand, had the upper hand and was able to stay by An Jin's side every day under the guise of being her assistant.

Pei Ning's anger intensified, and he clenched his back teeth until they were hard.

An Jin, who dared not speak, looked up and saw that Pei Ning was about to get angry. Without thinking, she stomped on him.

Pei Ning, who was halfway through her anger, immediately blushed, looking as if she were on fire.

"waiter!"

Pei Ning called out.

The waiter approached with a smile: "Sir, how can I help you?"

Pei Ning blushed and said, "Give me an iced Americano too."

Unaware of what was happening under the table, Yan Qing chuckled and said, "What, Mr. Pei, you've suddenly taken a liking to iced Americano too?"

Xue Mingyue also noticed that Pei Ning's actions were a bit strange, but he thought Pei Ning was angry.

Despite being rebuked by Yan Qing, Pei Ning remained unperturbed. He picked up the bitter coffee on the table, took a sip, and looked at An Jin, who had been keeping her head down and hadn't spoken, with red eyes.

"I just suddenly realized that I should pay more attention to my health, and exercise might be a good way to do that."
