Chapter 744 Did they get back together?
Since the items were already purchased, Qin Yi was too lazy to bother returning them, even if they could be returned; after all, it wasn't much money to begin with.
He told Qiao Xing to take them all back; use what he could, and donate what he couldn't to children in impoverished mountain areas.
Although he did buy a lot, Qiao Xing was still very touched.
She told Qin Yi that there was no need to donate it, as Yang Han's wife, Xiao Lin, was also pregnant, only a month or two later than her.
When the time comes, she can send some to Xiao Lin as a token of his affection for Yang Han's child.
Upon hearing this, Qin Yi was no longer upset and quickly pulled Qiao Xing to play games together.
Since becoming pregnant, she has rarely used electronic devices except for necessary work.
Judging from the timeline, she has rarely played games since returning to Chongqing.
After not playing for a long time, she stopped thinking about it so much, but now, Qin Yi's reminder has made her itchy again.
She was about to agree to Qin Yi's request when she suddenly remembered Qin Ce.
Qiao Xing hesitated, then looked at Qin Ce and tentatively asked, "May I?"
Qin Ce looked at her intently, "What if I say no?"
Qiao Xing's shoulders slumped instantly. She tried to negotiate with Qin Ce, "Just one hour?"
Looking into her bright eyes, Qin Ce knew that if he refused, she would probably be disappointed for a long time.
Sometimes she is very independent and self-reliant, but other times she acts like a child.
There's nothing we can do about her.
Qin Yi was also waiting for Qin Ce to agree, and the two of them looked at Qin Ce expectantly.
Qin Ce shook his head slightly and sighed softly, "Go ahead and play, but it'll only last an hour at most. We should leave when it's time."
"Okay!" Qiao Xing and Qin Yi agreed at the same time.
Qin Ce happened to be dealing with some emails, so he let the two of them go and have fun.
Qiao Xing's account hasn't been logged into for a while, and his rank has dropped significantly.
She and Qin Yi weren't matched yet, but luckily Qin Yi had a smurf account of the same rank, so he could play with her.
After waiting patiently for Qiao Xing to finish updating, Qin Yi quickly pulled Qiao Xing into the room.
The two started their first game. Qiao Xing hadn't played for a long time and was a bit rusty. In less than ten minutes, he had already been killed several times.
She looked up at Qin Yi somewhat embarrassedly, "Sorry, I haven't played in a long time..."
Qin Yi didn't care at all and comforted Qiao Xing, "It's okay, sister-in-law, with me here, we'll definitely win this round!"
Less than five minutes after Qin Yi finished speaking, a victory announcement sounded on the game interface.
"See, sister-in-law? I can easily crush anyone at this level. I won't lose at all. Trust me, you won't regret it!"
Qiao Xing gave him a thumbs up, "You're the best!"
Not satisfied with just one game, Qin Yi quickly started another.
Qiao Xing didn't want to drag the team down this time, so he played very cautiously from the start.
She quickly rediscovered the feeling she had when she played games with Yang Han and the others.
Her record turned from negative to positive, and Qin Yi couldn't help but praise her, "Well done, sister-in-law! I told you you're not bad at all!"
The two were having a great time when Wang Yu knocked on the door and came in.
"I had someone cut some fruit for you. Have some to help with your digestion."
Qiao Xing put away his phone somewhat embarrassedly when he saw Wang Yu.
Once Qiao Xing stopped, Qin Yi had no choice but to stop as well.
Wang Yu put down the fruit plate and said apologetically, "Did I disturb you?"
Qiao Xing smiled slightly. "No."
Wang Yu glanced at Qin Ce, who was focused on the computer, and then said to Qin Yi and Qiao Xing, "You've finally come back, so stay at home tonight. Your rooms have been cleaned in advance and are very tidy."
Qin Yi had originally planned to stay overnight and go to work the next day.
So he had no objections.
Qiao Xing was in a dilemma; whether or not she should stay depended entirely on Qin Ce's decision.
She looked at Qin Ce, and Wang Yu also looked at Qin Ce.
Qin Ce said without looking up, "No need, we'll leave in a bit."
Wang Yu opened her mouth, glanced at Qin Ce as if wanting to say something, but ultimately swallowed her words.
She turned to Qiao Xing and Qin Yi and said, "You guys have fun, I'm going out first."
After Wang Yu left, Qin Ce looked up and saw that Qiao Xing and Qin Yi were both staring at him.
Qin Ce frowned slightly. "Why are you looking at me? Don't you want to play anymore?"
Just as he was about to say he didn't want to play anymore and leave, Qiao Xing and Qin Yi quickly lowered their heads and began discussing what to play in the next game.
Qin Ce smiled faintly and continued processing emails.
Qin Yi won several games in a row, and was the MVP in every single one, so he was in an extremely good mood.
However, just then, a jarring phone call came in.
His game page immediately froze.
Qin Yi clicked his tongue and hung up the phone without thinking.
But to everyone's surprise, the phone rang again less than a minute after the game returned to normal.
Qin Ce frowned, looking somewhat impatient.
Then he hung up the phone again.
The third time, there was a few minutes of silence, and Qin Yi thought the phone wouldn't ring again.
Just as we were about to start a team fight, he got stuck again.
"I...!" Qin Ce managed to suppress the swear word.
His good mood vanished instantly, and all he could hear was a regretful sigh coming from Qiao Xing.
Qin Yi knew that if he lost this game, his winning streak would end.
He couldn't take it anymore and answered the phone, yelling, "Qiao Ying! Are you kidding me? I'm telling you one last time, don't call me!"
His shout startled Qiao Xing.
Qin Ce also raised his head and glanced at him.
Qin Yi hung up the phone and silently repeated to himself countless times, "I can't argue with girls, I can't argue with girls."
Qiao Xing belatedly realized that he had just called out Qiao Ying's name.
Qiao Ying.
I haven't heard of or seen Qiao Xing in a long time.
Qin Yi was still deeply immersed in his anger.
Qiao Xing cautiously asked him, "Was the person who called you just now Qiao Ying?"
"Mmm." Qin Yi's voice was still filled with emotion.
We should have won that last game.
This is infuriating!
Upon hearing that it really was Qiao Ying, Qiao Xing's eyes widened in surprise, "You and Qiao Ying got back together?"
Qin Yi looked like he'd seen a ghost. "How could that be! Even if I stay single for the rest of my life, I would never get back together with her!"
"Then what is this...?"
Qin Yi had never wanted to mention this to anyone, because it annoyed him and made him feel ashamed.
But when Qiao Xing asked, Qin Yi could only answer.
“After we broke up, she found a job near my company, and I see her every day on my way to and from get off work.”
Qin Yi was in agony. "Sister-in-law, you're her cousin. Why don't you talk to her and ask her to stop bothering me? I don't want things to get too ugly, but I really can't stand her doing this every day."
When Qin Yi was with Qiao Ying, he truly loved her.
So even after the breakup, he wanted to make sure both of them could maintain some dignity.
