Chapter 25
The next day was a weekday and all activities were scheduled in the evening.
Yang Mingzhou was an idle person. He didn't need to look for a job in his senior year, and he refused his sister's offer to join the company. He stayed in school and relaxed.
"Brother Xu, are you going to fight on the battlefield tonight?"
As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw Ming Xu sitting in front of the computer.
Mingxu was busy with his business venture. He was getting more and more busy, and he was a little overwhelmed. When he heard Yang Mingzhou's voice, he didn't even raise his head and said, "No."
As expected, Yang Mingzhou curled his lips and continued, "Where is your little apprentice?"
Mingxu paused typing and corrected him: "Not a disciple."
"Okay, okay, what's the difference? I'll ask her myself."
Yan Qing was a junior in college and had a full class schedule at 8am. She was already sitting in the classroom at this time. She got up late and didn't have time to eat breakfast. She felt a little groggy and only came to her senses when she saw the news from the gang leader.
[Eat porridge first]: Hot pot! Are you coming to the evening event? I need to count the number of people now.
[Just eat spicy hot pot]: Come on.
After the two of them finished talking, Yan Qing suddenly thought of something and found Zhou Mingshu.
[Yan Qing]: What have you been busy with lately? It's okay if I don't play games, but we haven't seen each other for a long time.
Yan Qing has been playing the game for more than three months. In the beginning, Zhou Mingshu always came to check on her progress, but in the past month, the two haven't met in real life once, and she hasn't even been online in the game. Yan Qing can only extract some information from occasional chats.
Zhou Mingshu was at the airport when he received Yan Qing's message.
[Zhou Mingshu]: Hahaha, I’ve been busy lately.
Yan Qing noticed that something was wrong with her.
[Yan Qing]: Are you hiding something from me? Tell me the truth.
People were coming and going in the airport. Zhou Mingshu released all the emotions that he had been holding back for a month after seeing the message from his friend.
The passengers nearby saw this and looked over, and a kind-hearted person handed over a tissue.
Zhou Mingshu took it and thanked him with sobs.
[Zhou Mingshu]: It’s okay, don’t ask. I’m going home and will be back next month.
Next month? Yan Qing glanced at the date. It was already the end of December. Zhou Mingshu's school had always had the earliest holidays in Beicheng. She had been indignant about this during her freshman year. To accompany her, Zhou Mingshu would stay in Beicheng for an extra half month every holiday, waiting for her to go home.
[Yan Qing]: Our school is closed on the 15th. Are you going to come back after I go home? What's wrong with you?
Seeing that he could no longer hide the truth, Zhou Mingshu had to tell the truth.
Looking at the messages on his phone, Yan Qing finally understood what it meant to be so angry that one's back teeth were almost broken in the novel.
It turns out to be realistic.
Finally, the get out of class was over. Yan Qing went to the corridor and called Zhou Mingshu. The cold female voice on the other end reminded her that her plane had already taken off.
After class, Zhou Mingshu came to report that he was safe.
Yan Qing was eating, but lost his appetite when he saw the news. He said goodbye to his roommate and returned to the dormitory.
As soon as the call was connected, Yan Qing was about to speak when he heard Zhou Mingshu's faint crying. Yan Qing lost his temper and softened his voice: "Mingshu, what happened?"
Zhou Mingshu: "I'm heartbroken." After saying that, she cried even louder.
Broken heart?
Realizing that Yan Qing didn't seem to understand, Zhou Mingshu wiped his tears and explained to her, "My in-game romance, we broke up."
Yan Qing always thought that they just had a good relationship, but she didn't expect that they were in love.
After saying that, Zhou Mingshu patted herself. She hadn't told Yan Qing about her relationship with Fan Zhuoyi, but now it was all out. She didn't care about her sadness and asked cautiously, "Xixi, um, I didn't mean to hide it from you. It's just that this matter is too complicated, and I'm afraid you can't accept it."
"Am I an old-fashioned person? Isn't it just an online romance between you two? How complicated is it?" Yan Qing said sarcastically. She couldn't blame her. Even if Zhou Mingshu told her, she wouldn't really let them break up. She had heard a lot of relationship problems in the gang during this period.
This time Zhou Mingshu really felt guilty. The fear of having his secret discovered by his best friend had overwhelmed the sadness of breaking up.
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while before Yan Qing continued, "Tell me, why did you two break up? Did he cheat on you?"
"No."
If it's not a matter of principle, then it's a matter of personality. Yan Qing thought of the characters in his novels. There are always some small conflicts in the love plots, mostly because of the differences in the two people's personalities.
Zhou Mingshu stammered, "He's too clingy." He felt a little embarrassed and explained, "At first I thought it was fine, but over time, he wanted to know everything I did, or he'd get mad. It was so annoying."
"Not enough."
Zhou Mingshu didn't hear clearly: "What did you say?" She had just got off the plane, and the airport was noisy with people coming and going.
Before Yan Qing could speak, another call came in.
Looking at the hung up call, Yan Qing put down her phone. Now that the male lead was here, she didn't need to counsel him anymore.
When I put down my phone, I saw a message from my beloved Coal Balls, ten minutes ago.
[Coal briquettes I love to eat]: I have something to do tonight.
Still concise and to the point.
[Just eat spicy hotpot]: Got it, any other instructions?
Ten minutes later, new information appeared before her.
[爱吃煤块]: Please come to my account and help me with the activity.
Thinking of the warm new pet in her backpack, she couldn't refuse and agreed with a smile.
Since she had no classes in the afternoon, she planned to do the activities for Meiqiu first.
Looking at the male character on the screen, Yan Qing couldn't help but sigh: "It's so good to be rich." When the roommate came back, he saw Yan Qing staring at the screen in a daze and expressed his concern.
Yan Qing said quietly, "You've become a slave before you even graduate."
I felt a pat on the shoulder, and then I heard my roommate's firm voice: "Keep going! Just consider this an early taste of life."
After finishing all the activities, Yan Qing was about to log off, but the mouse arrow on the screen did not move. In fact, she had some ulterior motives.
Apart from the gang leader, there is no other character with full favorability in the friend list.
There is so much money in the backpack.
At this time, Coal Ball's message came, and Yan Qing could feel the man's emotions from just a few words.
That is the absence of emotion.
[Love to Eat Coal Balls]: Is the activity finished?
[Just eat spicy hot pot]: How do you know?
Looking at the screenshot in the chat box, Yan Qing wanted to slap himself unconscious. How could he accidentally send a private message to someone he didn't know when taking a screenshot?
[Coal briquettes I love to eat]: Just look at it.
Seeing this, Yan Qing turned off the game and muttered, "It seems like I really like to peek. I won't watch anymore."
[Just Eat Spicy Hot Pot]: It’s the first time I’ve seen so many clothes, and I couldn’t help but take a look.
[Love to Eat Coal Balls]: You have the account and password. You can watch it anytime next time without asking me.
[Coal Balls I Love to Eat]: Be careful not to accidentally send private messages to others.
It's so evil.
Yan Qing turned off the computer angrily.
Seeing Yan Qing put on her coat, her roommate poked his head out of bed and asked, "Are you going out?"
"To the library."
Her roommates were all resting, and the keyboards were too noisy, so Yan Qing decided to go to the library to write. This was a place she was used to: quiet and undisturbed, without worrying about others seeing what she was doing.
[Coal Balls I Love to Eat]: Half an hour left.
When Yan Qing saw the message, she was suddenly stunned. It seemed that she had an event to attend in the evening. She carefully looked at the time and found that there was only half an hour left. She packed her bag and ran to the dormitory.
At this time, she was a little envious of her classmates who lived in a smaller school. Their dormitory was at the northernmost end, and the library was in the southwest corner. Yan Qing didn't buy an electric car or a bicycle, and she relied on her own two legs to travel around during her three years in college. Now she almost failed because of this.
Yan Qing pushed the door open panting, and without time to calm down, he turned on the computer.
Seeing this, her roommate who was playing games turned around and asked her with concern: "What's wrong with you? Why did you run back?"
"There was an event, I almost forgot."
Another roommate, who was eating, joked, "I didn't expect that in your third year of college, you've become an internet addict."
Yan Qing disagreed: "No?"
After logging into the game, the gang leader's team arrived within seconds. Yan Qing breathed a sigh of relief after entering. Fortunately, she wasn't late. Leaning back in her chair and browsing her phone, she suddenly felt a pang of hunger. She had been so engrossed in writing in the afternoon that she hadn't paid attention to mealtimes. Now that she had run all the way back, her stomach was protesting.
"Momo, is there any delicious takeout near the school?"
Momo was the best eater in the dormitory. When she heard Yan Qing asking her, she immediately pulled a chair over and sat down.
Looking at the densely packed list of businesses on her phone, she felt a little dazzled and silently offered her a suggestion: "How about trying some pilaf? I think this Xinjiang pilaf is the best in our area. I've even visited their restaurant. They offer dine-in service, have an open kitchen, and are very clean. And most importantly, the owner is from Xinjiang."
Finally, I was a little worried: "Are you afraid of getting fat? I have some fat-reducing meals to recommend to you."
Yan Qing shook his head.
Mo Mo: "That's perfect, let's eat here. I haven't eaten yet, so let's order together. I'll bring the takeout up to you later."
"Thank you so much! You are so kind!"
The event was still delayed for more than ten minutes because there were always a few people in the gang who couldn't arrive on time.
The gang leader scolded people in the voice chat.
As soon as Xiao Xiao Yu Ni came online, he sent a message to Yan Qing with an emoticon.
[Just eat spicy hot pot]:/Pig head.
[Little Yu Ni]: Sister Hotpot, can I still follow you today? I am your master and your nanny. I want to follow you and practice with you.
The master she was talking about should be the gang's management nanny. Yan Qing saw the two of them calling each other master and apprentice in the group.
Yan Qing was more than happy to have a wet nurse following him, which greatly improved his sense of security.
The gang leader had just finished scolding everyone in the voice room when Yan Qing saw the last person in the team coming in late. It was Xiaoxiao Yu Ni's senior sister.
The gang leader's tone was a little unpleasant. After all, he had been reminding everyone in the group from time to time throughout the day not to be late, and that there were other activities to do after this one.
Seeing that it was a newcomer, he didn't say anything else: "Everyone, check your equipment. Don't wear it wrong. I'm starting."
The first game went smoothly. Thanks to the little Yu Ni, Yan Qing never died once. However, because Yu Ni's account was too small, he was targeted and killed several times by the opponent. Fortunately, the management nurse came later, and the two of them could catch their breath.
In the second game, the opponents were all very well equipped. Yu Ni privately chatted with Yan Qing and said that she was scared. Yan Qing comforted her, but her heart was beating fast. As expected, she was beaten up again, but this time there was someone with her. Usually, she was the one being chased and beaten here, and Meiqiu was chasing and beating others not far away.
After skipping the score settlement, everyone complained about the queuing mechanism in voice chat.
A sudden voice suddenly reached everyone's ears, "Can the nanny please look at me more? No one has nursed me the whole time. Some people can even die by monopolizing two nannies."
Yan Qing didn't pay attention to what she was saying, but suddenly heard his own name
She was a little confused: "Me?"
The gang members were also stunned.
