Xiang Yu did not respond to Ji Kexin's confession immediately, but waited for fifteen minutes before replying. In that long period of time, Ji Kexin actually already had an answer, but she still wanted to wait for Xiang Yu to tell her in person.
[Private Chat] [Xiang Yu]: Ji Kexin, I have someone I love. I'm sorry.
[Private Chat] [Ji Kexin]: Is this Jiang Hua?
[Private Chat] [Xiang Yu]: Yes.
Finally, she admitted it; finally, it was over; finally, she knew... Tears streamed down Ji Kexin's face. So that's how it was—Xiang Yu liked Jiang Hua. Ji Kexin felt a sense of relief, but the sadness in her heart only deepened.
[Private Chat] [Ji Kexin]: But Jiang Hua already has someone she likes!
[Private Chat] [Xiang Yu]: I know.
You know? Xiang Yu knows Jiang Hua has someone she likes, and you still like her, right? Why?
[Private Chat] [Xiang Yu]: But I just like Jiang Hua.
[Private Chat] [Xiang Yu]: Ji Kexin, in this lifetime, one can only love one person. If you give everything to the first person, you can't give anything to the second. I'm very sorry to you.
I can't afford to give this to anyone else... Xiang Yu, why are you so resolute towards me, Ji Kexin! Fine, I've said everything I wanted to say, I've given you the answers you wanted to know, and I have no regrets. Since you like Jiang Hua, then I'll grant your wish, and I won't bother you anymore.
[Private Chat] [Ji Kexin]: I'm so sorry for the trouble I caused you. I will never bother you again.
Ji Kexin logged off immediately after saying these words. She was afraid of seeing Xiang Yu's reply; she was afraid of Xiang Yu... Her love was so humble, so selfless...
Meanwhile, Xiang Yu, on the other side, also felt a pang of sadness for some reason. But he thought it was just his imagination... and then Xiang Yu logged off.
Ji Kexin returned to her dormitory looking quite disheveled. Jiang Hua, seeing Ji Kexin's sad and exhausted expression, casually asked, "Kexin, where did you go so late?"
However, Ji Kexin understood very well that love couldn't be forced, so she didn't dislike or hate Jiang Hua at all. But right now, she truly didn't know how to face Jiang Hua. She was exhausted.
Seeing that Ji Kexin looked very tired, Jiang Hua didn't ask any more questions, because she knew that asking would be pointless. So she decided to let Ji Kexin have some peace and quiet.
With Ji Kexin's matter settled, Jiang Hua wanted to go online and play games. She opened the game page, intending to invite a few friends to play together. Jiang Hua carefully browsed her friends list and decided to play with Yi Ming and Liu Yun Yi Shuai.
However, Jiang Hua noticed that Liu Yun Yishua was not online, so she started bombarding him with calls.
[Private Chat] [Di Ruhua]: Is Liu Yun Yishua online?
[Private Chat] [Di Ruhua]: Is Liu Yun Yishua online?
[Private Chat] [Di Ruhua]: Liu Yun Yishua, wanna play games together?
Jiang Hua was puzzled. Usually, Liu Yun Yi Shuai would log on quickly whenever she was online. What was wrong today? Was everyone having some troubles? Should she still ask Liu Yun Yi Shuai to log on and play games?
Jiang Hua stopped asking questions and decided to browse the school's homepage for a while to relieve her boredom.
After a while
[Private Chat] [Liu Yun Yi Shuai]: I'm here, are you still there?
[Private Chat] [Di Ruhua]: Yes, yes. Why are you so late online today? Is something wrong?
[Private Chat] [Liu Yun Yi Shuai]: Yeah, I've run into some things, and they're quite bothering me.
[Private Chat] [Di Ruhua]: So, have you solved it?
[Private Chat] [Liu Yun Yi Shuai]: It's resolved. I even had a little drink because of these worries.
[Private Chat] [Di Ruhua]: Drinking? Today?
Drinking?! Ji Kexin went drinking today too and said she ran into... Xiang Yu! Could the "Flowing Clouds Flick" I'm chatting with now be... Xiang Yu?!
Upon hearing Xiang Yu's words, Jiang Hua suddenly remembered what Ji Kexin had just said. Jiang Hua's mind began to recall every little thing she had done with Xiang Yu, including Xiang Yu's sudden appearance at the restaurant and how he saved her.
Furthermore, Xiang Yu's way of speaking and his habits towards people, which he had previously encountered in the game, gradually overlapped in Jiang Hua's mind with Xiang Yu's.
Especially after Jiang Hua and Gu Yiming had a fight not long ago, and Xiang Yu came to the library to comfort her, Jiang Hua suddenly understood. If she didn't know Gu Yiming, how could Xiang Yu know Gu Yiming's "personality" and comfort her?
If I hadn't met Gu Yiming and known what was happening in the world, how could I have gone to the library so accurately to comfort myself?
If we didn't know each other, if we didn't know each other's identities, how could it all be such a coincidence?
Everything came together at this moment, and Jiang Hua suddenly understood that Xiang Yu was Liu Yunyi.
At this moment, Jiang Hua's heart was filled with sorrow. Jiang Hua couldn't say whether she cared about Xiang Yu's deception or simply because she couldn't bear the deception.
Jiang Hua still remembered what Xiang Yu had said when they met not long ago: Xiang Yu said he also played Legend of Mir, Xiang Yu said he was just a newbie, Xiang Yu said…
So all of this was just one of the lies Xiang Yu told to cover up that he was Liu Yunyi.
Jiang Hua was very unwilling. No matter what the process was or what the cause was, Jiang Hua could not swallow this anger.
After calming down for a moment, Jiang Hua ultimately decided not to expose the matter for the time being. Acting is great, everyone can do it together. Is it really that fun for Xiang Yu to act all by himself? Jiang Hua also inexplicably wanted to try it out.
Jiang Hua, who was furious at first, gradually calmed down. At this moment, she thought of a way to give someone a taste of their own medicine. Jiang Hua silently turned on the computer, which was in a black screen state, and found Liu Yun in her friends list.
Private message to Emperor Ruyun: Liuyun, let's go to Tangchi together at 8 pm tonight.
On the other end, Xiang Yu saw that Jiang Hua hadn't replied for a long time and thought something had happened. He kept staring at the computer and refreshing the message page when suddenly an unread message popped up.
Xiang Yu glanced at the message and saw that it was sent by Jiang Hua. She smiled, read the message, and replied.
Private message to "Liu Yun Yi Shuai": Okay, see you at 8 PM.
Private message to Emperor Ruhua: Okay, see you at the hot spring at 8 pm tonight.
Jiang Hua saw Liu Yun agree to her request, then sneered as she picked up her phone, tapped a few times to unlock it, quickly found Xiang Yu in her contacts, and dialed the number.
Hearing the phone ring, Xiang Yu glanced at the computer, then got up, picked up the phone from the sofa, and tapped the screen to turn it on. Seeing a message from "Jiang Hua" displayed on the screen, her heart skipped a beat.
After calming down a bit, I answered the phone and listened quietly to why Jiang Hua had called.
