Chapter 72 Preference
Chi Dong was stunned for a moment, then he looked up and saw Professor Mo looking at them seriously. His heart suddenly tensed up, so he had to hold his words back and calm down to listen to the class carefully.
"Ding bell~"
The bell rang for the end of class, and Chi Dong put down his note-taking pen. Lin Jie on his left was still writing furiously, copying down his notes frantically, while Zhou Yize, who was sitting on his right, had already packed up and stood up to leave.
Chi Dong hurriedly grabbed Zhou Yize's clothes and asked in confusion: "Where are you going, Third Brother? Aren't you going to the cafeteria to eat with us?"
Zhou Yize stopped what he was doing and saw that he looked nervous. He couldn't help but put his fist to his lips to hold back his smile, and smiled, "Don't worry, Xiaodong. I'm just going to discuss something with Professor Mo. I'll go to the cafeteria later. I won't eat with you this time."
He raised his hand and looked at the watch on his wrist. "I have class selections this afternoon, so I won't be going back to the dormitory. You guys should have a good rest."
"Oh, then second brother... no, then third brother, are you going back to the dormitory tonight?" Chi Dong was a little worried about his condition, but he couldn't show it, so he could only wait until they returned to the dormitory.
"It depends on the situation. If nothing unexpected happens, he should come back." Zhou Yize knew that Chi Dong and Lin Jie were concerned about him, so he didn't think they were meddling in his affairs. The corners of his mouth slightly raised, "I know what you want to ask, but Cheng Mo's matter has nothing to do with me. But you don't have to worry, he will be fine."
"Okay, let's talk about this later. Now I have to talk to the professor about something. You guys should go to the cafeteria and have dinner early."
After saying that, Zhou Yize turned around and left his seat, ignoring the sound of Lin Jie shouting at him to borrow his notebook. When he reached the door, he paused, turned his back to them and said, "The notebook is in the drawer, remember to take it. I'm leaving now, see you later." As soon as he finished speaking, he quickly left the classroom. Chi Dong watched his back gradually disappearing into the distance and couldn't help but sigh.
Hearing that Zhou Yize left his notes in the classroom, Lin Jie was as happy as a child. He jumped out of his seat, walked around Chi Dong, and went to the seat where Zhou Yize had sat. He bent down and took a look. Sure enough, he saw the notebook he had been thinking about. He opened it and the densely packed words came into view.
Lin Jie was taking notes while scratching his head in confusion, not even having the time to raise his head. "Are the second and third brothers arguing again?"
Chi Dong shook his head, indicating that he didn't know. By the time Lin Jie finished copying the notes, half an hour had passed. The two of them packed up their things and went to the cafeteria to pack some food to take back.
It’s not that they don’t want to eat in the cafeteria, but that time period is when the cafeteria is busiest. The entire cafeteria is full, and even if there are seats, they are single seats, and the two seats are far apart, so they have to share the table with others.
Chi Dong knew Lin Jie's eating habits. He didn't like sharing a table with strangers, so Chi Dong suggested that they pack up their food and take it back to the dormitory.
On the way back to the dormitory, I passed by a small woods and happened to see Cheng Mo and a girl walking intimately together.
Looking at the backs of the two people walking away not far away, Chi Dong's brows suddenly frowned, his eyes filled with surprise and a little anger. He felt sorry for Zhou Yize.
Lin Jie, who was carrying the packed box, was eager to catch up and ask for clarification. Chi Dong quickly grabbed the corner of his clothes and whispered to stop him, "Boss, let's go back first and wait for Third Brother to come back."
"Ah? Oh, okay!" Seeing Chi Dong resisting so much, Lin Jie was confused for a moment. He was just shocked that Cheng Mo actually had a girlfriend and wanted to go up and get to know her, but he didn't expect Chi Dong to show an unhappy expression. Did he know that girl?
Back in the dormitory, Lin Jie was so hungry that he finished his meal in just a few bites. When he finished, Chi Dong was still sitting on the chair, chewing slowly. He looked absent-minded, as if he was still thinking about what he had just seen. Lin Jie didn't care too much. After eating and drinking, he lay down on the bed and played with his phone comfortably.
Chi Dong always eats a little slower than the average person, and this speed depends on the situation. If he eats in the cafeteria or in an unfamiliar place, he will eat a little faster; but once he eats in the dormitory or at home, his speed will be much slower.
There was only one class in the afternoon in late winter, and it was an elective course. Lin Jie had no class in the afternoon, so he squatted in the dormitory and slept soundly.
After Chidong finished his afternoon class, he went to the express station and picked up some express parcels that had been piled up for a long time. On the way back, my phone vibrated a few times. Because I had a lot of express parcels in my hand, I could only put them on the ground and open my phone to check.
It turned out that Lin Jie said in the dormitory group that he was going out for dinner and karaoke with some junior students in the club that night, so he would not return to the dormitory to sleep at night, and asked them not to leave the door.
Not long after he finished speaking, Cheng Mo also replied in the group that he would not go back tonight either. After he finished speaking, there was silence in the group for a long time, and no one responded. Seeing this, Chi Dong had no choice but to deduct a 1 in the group to indicate that he understood.
After replying to the message, Chi Dong looked at the WeChat chat avatar that he had pinned. His eyes suddenly lit up, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but slightly rise, and a hint of tenderness appeared on his face.
Chi Dong's heart moved slightly, and he had the urge to talk to "him", but this urge was quickly suppressed and hidden deep in his heart.
"Don't be silly, people only add you as their friend because they know you well."
Just after returning to the first floor of the dormitory, his cell phone suddenly rang. Chi Dong opened it and saw that it was a call from the class council member, saying that the class wanted to establish a connection with other departments and wanted him, a figurehead student committee member, to help.
The student council member on the other end of the phone reasoned with him, appealed to his emotions, and talked a lot, Chi Dong had no choice but to agree. But he still had a parcel in his hand, so he had to go back to the dormitory first, and then hurried to the place the student council member mentioned.
When he finished his work and returned to the dormitory, it was already 11 o'clock in the evening. The dormitory was dark and no one was there. If Zhou Yize didn't come back tonight, Chi Dong would be the only one left in the dormitory.
Chi Dong sat back in the chair with a tired look on his face. It took him a long while to look at the time. By this time, the bathhouse had long passed opening hours, but he had to take a bath. After all, he had been busy all night. Not to mention the stains on his clothes, the smell of sweat from all the moving around was unbearable for him.
He has always preferred cleanliness, and usually even his quilt would be folded into a tofu shape, not to mention that it is now dirty. If he doesn't take a shower, he will definitely not be able to sleep.
Chi Dong's gaze shifted from the table to the water bottle in the corner. They had never used this water bottle since the school installed water dispensers.
Later, Lin Jie felt that it was in the way, so he threw it into a corner, planning to take it with him when he threw out the garbage one day. Later, everyone got busy and forgot about it.
Now it comes in handy.
Chi Dong took it to the toilet, washed it, and used it to boil several pots of water for bathing. By the time he finished, it was already midnight.
Chi Dong tidied up and closed the doors and windows. He gradually felt sleepy. When he covered himself with the quilt and closed his eyes to sleep, he always felt as if he had forgotten to do something. But his eyelids became heavier and heavier, and soon he fell into a deep sleep.
He then attended classes during the day and helped to set up the scene at night. By the time he remembered what was going on, it was already the third day.
By then, the event site had been set up, and Chidong had helped with everything that needed to be moved and done. While the student council member was out buying supplies, he sneaked back to the dormitory, and the moment he entered the room, he rushed to the table, hurriedly turned on the computer and logged into the game.
He has been extremely busy these days, and the final exams are approaching, so they will start reviewing next week. That's why he completely forgot about the game.
Chi Dong looked at the login interface anxiously. He hesitated a second before clicking to enter. He and Bu Qianli only contacted each other in the game and did not exchange other contact information, so he had no idea what the current situation was.
He was a little hesitant, and kept muttering, "It's over, it's over. How could I have forgotten about the game? Did the masters think I had run away?!"
Time passed by minute by minute, Chi Dong was troubled again and again, and finally he closed his eyes and logged in. What he didn't know was that the moment he appeared online in Xuancheng, the world channel began to roll wildly.
[World] Tyre: Everyone! Great news, she is online, coordinates Xuancheng (689, 627)
[World] Beautiful Day: Xuancheng? What a coincidence, I'm in Xuancheng's store, wait for me to come over and take a look.
[World] Man on man: ! ! Wait for me, I want to go too.
[World] Passing by silently: On the road to Xuancheng +1

[World] Fishing without Empty Rods: I also saw you upstairs, I know you are very excited, but don't get excited yet, your big knife makes me nervous, and I, who is a red name, can't withstand your knife. [shivering.jpg]

Chi Dong didn't expect that as soon as he came online, before he could figure out the situation, he was caught by a master who was waiting for him. What shocked him the most was that more and more players gathered near them.
There were so many special effects and mounts that the computer screen was cluttered with them. Before he could react, the computer started popping up dropped frame prompts. The mouse was stuck when he moved it, and it felt like the screen would go black in the next second.
Chi Dong then remembered that he had forgotten to disable the special effects when he went offline last time, so he quickly opened the settings and disabled everything that could be disabled, even changing the picture quality to the worst smoothness, and then turned off all options such as special effects. After doing all this, Chi Dong switched back to the game interface, and immediately the problems such as lag and frame drops disappeared.
However, after these problems were solved, what appeared before him was far more difficult and troublesome than other problems.
Chi Dong stared blankly at the prompt that popped up on the top of the screen - [Player Kill One Person in Ten Steps invites you to join the team, do you agree? Agree/Reject], a trace of guilt flashed across his fair face, and he didn't dare to press the "Agree" button with his hand on the mouse.
Perhaps sensing his guilty conscience, Bu Qianli invited him to join the team three times in a row. Looking at the system prompts that kept popping up, Chi Dong had no choice but to finally click to agree to join the team.
As soon as he joined the team, he was taken to Bu Qianli's residence. Before he could say anything, two paragraphs popped up in the team chat box.
[Team] Kill One Person in Ten Steps: ...What? Are you finally willing to join the team?
[Team] Kill One Person in Ten Steps: I was originally thinking that if you didn’t come online today, I would put you on the bounty list.
Even if they hadn't met face to face, Chi Dong could feel the other person's anger just by looking at these words.
[Team] Dong Dong hid: Sorry, Master, it's my fault. I shouldn't have forgotten to fight the game, sorry.
[Team] Kill one person every ten steps: Yeah.
Bu Qianli's "hmm" made the air suddenly fall into silence.
Chi Dong didn't know what else to say, so he could only bite the bullet and continue to apologize. He really didn't mean to forget about the book, but the things that happened in the past few days, plus he was so tired that he fell asleep immediately after returning home at night, so he forgot about it.
[Team] Kill one person every ten steps: Follow me.
[Team] Dongdong hides: Where to go?
Chi Dong didn't know where he was going to take him, but he didn't dare to ask or resist. After all, he had done something wrong, and he agreed but didn't go online, wasting everyone's time.
