Chapter 206 The Real and Fake Heiresses Used as Cannon Fodder (18) Bai Zhiyao...
Bai Zhiyao looked at the young man and began to pretend to do some calculations, her expression changing every now and then. The young man couldn't help but mutter to himself, "Surely none of these three girls are my destined partners."
The "gossip system" had already revealed the answer. Bai Zhiyao had specifically chosen people related to the game today, so naturally she wouldn't choose gossip with negative news.
"These three are all your destined partners." Since there was still plenty of time, Bai Zhiyao kept everyone in suspense before revealing the truth.
Upon hearing this, the boy opposite him jumped up, staring blankly for a long while before stammering, "I, I wouldn't! I didn't cheat! I only plan to have one girlfriend!"
The arrogant young man, who used to look cool and cocky like a wolf cub baring its teeth, has now broken down and become a silly, goofy, howling husky.
Although he's had contact with several girls and other women, once he actually has a girlfriend, he'll definitely keep his distance from other women. It's absolutely impossible for him to have three girlfriends at the same time!
Bai Zhiyao suppressed a laugh and said, "These three accounts all share the same IP address. Haven't you noticed that they've never appeared at the same time?"
The arrogant young man was stunned for a while before saying, "I only found three gaming partners for different time periods. Do you think they have any connection with each other?"
Bai Zhiyao looked inscrutable: "You're a junior now. Back in your freshman year, didn't you have a crush on a girl? You'd secretly buy her breakfast and save her a seat, and even give her brown sugar ginger tea at special times, and then..."
The arrogant young man took over the conversation list listlessly, sighing, "Before I could even confess my feelings, she already had a boyfriend."
"Do you remember what her name was?" Bai Zhiyao continued to ask.
"Of course I remember, her name is Liu Xuewen, how... how... Holy crap!!!" The arrogant young man was so good at the game that he couldn't be brainless. After being reminded a little, he immediately realized what was going on.
What Liu Liu, Xue Xue, Wen Wen, if you put them together, isn't that Liu Xue Wen?!
He suddenly remembered that when he was chatting with the three women, they had all vaguely mentioned that they lived in the same city as him and were not far away.
Otherwise, the arrogant young man wouldn't have thought that one of these three people would be his future girlfriend.
But now, to tell him that these three gaming partners he's had the most contact with, whose personalities are most compatible, and who even have a vaguely ambiguous relationship with him, could very well be the person he's had a crush on for a long time?!
Then, everyone in the live stream saw the arrogant young man who had just been so self-righteous in criticizing others for being single, frantically shut down the game, unplugged his computer, and even pulled out his suitcase to pack his clothes, looking like he wanted to run away immediately.
[Hey hey hey, isn't this the dating guru? Everyone else is single, but you're not, so what are you afraid of?]
[You look so flustered, anyone who didn't know better would think you'd been caught cheating by your girlfriend.]
[Why are you running away, master? This is the steel reinforcement the God of Love tied for you! Don't be a stubborn fool.]
[I have a feeling there's something we don't know about this. Master Bai, please continue the calculations. You can't just eat half a melon's soup, can you?]
The audience wasn't going to take it lying down, and they seized the opportunity to quickly retort. Unfortunately, the arrogant young man was busy packing his things and had no time to look at the comments in the live stream.
Seeing that he was sweating with anxiety, Bai Zhiyao kindly reminded him, "Relax, don't bother packing. You don't need it anyway, you don't need to run around."
The arrogant young man had just breathed a sigh of relief after hearing her words when Bai Zhiyao added, "Anyway, she'll be standing at the door knocking in five minutes. If you run out now, she'll probably block your way."

"Since there are still a few minutes left, aren't you going to wash your face and tidy yourself up?" Bai Zhiyao reminded him again after seeing him acting like a wooden doll, not moving for a full minute.
The boy yelled and rushed to the bathroom, took a quick shower in three minutes, changed into a clean set of clothes, and removed all the fancy decorations he had put on to look cool. In an instant, he transformed from a wolf cub into a cute little white rabbit.
The little rabbit's eyes were still a little red, but that didn't stop him from quickly tidying up the room. By the time the knocking sounded, the room, which had been a mess caused by the boy, was already mostly back to normal.
The knocking sounded slowly and deliberately, but the boy instinctively took two steps back, bumping into a live-streaming phone next to him. A comment floated across the screen:
Come here and open the door, or you'll regret it!
To ensure the boy could read it clearly, Bai Zhiyao considerately read it aloud to him. The already nervous boy visibly trembled.
There were two more knocks on the door, seemingly urging or threatening. The boy moved forward with small, clumsy steps, closed his eyes, and opened the door as if facing a formidable enemy.
Standing outside the door was Liu Xuewen. The young woman looked at the boy, who had his eyes closed and looked resigned to his fate, with a half-smile. She said softly, "Jiang Jingci, why did you open the door so late? Did you not want to see me?"
Before the boy could answer, she pulled him into the house and slammed the door shut. The boy shuddered, but kept his eyes closed, letting her pull him along, not daring to dodge.
"What, were you planning to hide from me forever if I hadn't come?!" Liu Xuewen pulled Jiang Jingci and sat directly in front of the live stream camera, greeting everyone generously:
"Hello everyone, my name is Liu Xuewen, and I'm this husky's girlfriend."
Jiang Jingci immediately opened his eyes and glanced at her, looking like a timid wife who wanted to argue but dared not speak. After a while, he muttered softly, "I'm not a husky."
Liu Xuewen ignored his grumbling and explained the situation clearly.
It turned out that Jiang Jingci had been buying her breakfast, reserving seats for her, and giving her brown sugar ginger tea since the second semester of her freshman year. He also gave her birthday and holiday gifts, as well as a lot of milk tea and snacks.
Liu Xuewen waited and waited, receiving gifts from this guy for a whole year, but she never received a confession. He even stuttered when he spoke to her, making her seem like some kind of monster to outsiders.
Just as Liu Xuewen decided to take the initiative and get the person's approval, her brother happened to come to visit her at school. When the two were walking together, Jiang Jingci bumped into them.
This silly boy pretended to be nonchalant and even forced a smile as he greeted them, but secretly caught her brother who was alone and gave him a severe beating, saying that if he didn't treat her well, he would never forgive him.
Then he took off running and hid from her for a full six months. He ran so fast that even though Liu Xuewen saw him, she couldn't catch him. In the end, she went to the game he often played to wait for him.
"I originally planned to have someone block him when he suggested meeting, but now I have to thank Master Bai for allowing us to reunite ahead of schedule."
Looking at her boyfriend, who was still in a daze, Liu Xuewen said with a half-smile, "My brother specifically told me that if we get married in the future, he will return that sentence to you at the ceremony!"
When Jiang Jingci heard her say the word "marriage," her ears turned red. "I... I didn't know he was your older brother. I thought you were pursuing me to get revenge for your boyfriend."
After saying that, he pouted a little aggrievedly, which made the viewers in the live stream grimace and urge Bai Zhiyao to disconnect the live stream and quickly switch to the next one.
[Quickly move those two away and take the other one. It's not even noon yet. I can tolerate watching the drama unfold, but I don't want to be bombarded with dog food!]
[I'm so jealous! Even such a goofy husky has a partner, but I don't. Does tormenting single people not count as animal cruelty?]
Putting everything else aside, although this guy is a bit of a goofball, he's quite good-looking and financially well-off. When you're envious of others, maybe you should look in the mirror first, then check your own bank account balance, and you'll understand why you don't have a girlfriend, just like me.
[Next melon enthusiast, Master Bai! When you're doing your calculations, please pick and choose from the melons in the field. We're here to eat melons, not to be fed dog food!]
The live stream connection was disconnected. Bai Yichen pondered everything that had just happened. If it was a setup, Yao Yao's abilities made it impossible for her to arrange all of this without his knowledge, and she had no reason to bypass him.
Excluding these possible factors, there is only the least likely one: Yao Yao really did encounter some of the extraordinary adventures described in the novel.
Bai Yichen looked at the younger sister he had raised. The girl who was originally carefree now had something hidden in her eyes.
He initially thought that Yao Yao's insecurity stemmed from her background, but after getting to know her other sister a few times, Bai Yichen didn't notice anything amiss. The two sisters got along very well and never argued about their identities.
So what exactly is she worried about? What happened that made Yao Yao, who is usually a laid-back person, take the initiative to start her own business?
Just then, Bai Tiantian led Lin You to knock on the office door. Bai Yichen immediately composed himself, resuming his usual serious expression, but his voice was gentle:
"Tian Tian is here! You even brought your classmates to play. Come in, make yourself at home. This is our place, don't be shy."
Bai Yichen took another basket of snacks, which were quite different from Bai Zhiyao's, but were prepared according to Bai Tiantian's taste.
After greeting Bai Yichen, Bai Tian took the medicinal diet to the assistant's tea room outside, explaining its effects and telling them to take it themselves.
After saying that, she took another box and put it aside: "These are some new pastries that Mom just put on the shelves. She heard I was coming and asked me to bring them over for you to try."
Bai Zhiyao was live-streaming and couldn't easily get the snacks. Seeing Bai Yichen deliberately taking her favorite lotus flower pastry, she looked at Bai Tiantian longingly and said, "Sister, please save the lotus flower pastry for me, don't let Big Brother take it away."
Bai Tiantian took out the lotus flower pastry for her, put it on a plate, cut it into small pieces that were easy to eat, and placed it on the table next to her.
Bai Zhiyao immediately glanced smugly at Bai Yichen, and seeing the direction he was pointing, she deliberately said, "Sister, I still want to eat that butterfly pastry."
Golden, crispy, and sweet butterfly pastries were also placed in Bai Zhiyao's hands. Before she could continue to show off, Bai Yichen calmly said, "She just ordered extra-iced grape taro ball milk tea."
Bai Zhiyao paused as she reached for the butterfly pastry, staring in shock at her older brother, the dignified and domineering CEO, who had actually badmouthed her!
Bai Tiantian picked out some of her favorite snacks and put them on her table. Seeing Bai Zhiyao pout, he reached out and ruffled her hair. "Your calligraphy practice will be doubled tomorrow."
