As soon as Shen Weiqi said this, Jiang Zhi almost choked on the noodles she hadn't swallowed.
She was stunned for a second, then coughed a few times to the side.
When she sat up straight again, her face seemed to have a faint pink color.
"Unreasonable expectations?" Jiang Zhi pointed at herself. "Are you talking about me?"
"right."
"I didn't," Jiang Zhi explained. "I just said I was your girlfriend because you hinted at me with your eyes. You said there were two girls over there who seemed to like you, and asked me to pretend to be your girlfriend."
Shen Weiqi: "No, I didn't say that."
"You said it."
"No, I didn't."
Shen Weiqi's insistence made Jiang Zhi purse her lips, as if she was in the wrong.
She thought about it carefully, just now... Shen Weiqi did not ask her to pretend to be his girlfriend or anything like that.
However, he blinked at her a few times, hinting at her to help him out.
Why did Shen Weiqi pretend to be taken advantage of by her after she helped him?
Jiang Zhi naturally couldn't bear the loss in vain, so she tried hard to stick to her point of view: "No, you said it, and I heard it."
Shen Weiqi: “Really?”
Jiang Zhi: "Yeah."
Jiang Zhi's voice was light and non-aggressive, and the tone of her rebuttal was soft and unconvincing.
Shen Weiqi stared at Jiang Zhi in a daze.
It seemed that Jiang Zhi had been pretending to be a well-behaved person for too long, and she always acted "pretentious" in front of him.
She was clearly a big-headed wolf, yet she always pretended to be a little white rabbit. While she would bare her claws and fiercely scratch someone when cornered, most of the time she kept her inner self hidden, not daring to easily reveal her true nature in front of others.
To others, Jiang Zhi's condition was understandable.
But when Shen Weiqi thought that she might also be suppressing herself in front of him, he felt a little unhappy.
He always hoped that he was different in Jiang Zhi's heart.
It's like he has a favorite treasure that he has kept at the top of his heart for a long time. One day, he can't help but hope for a response. Even a little bit of it will make him happy for several days.
However, after such a long time, his love seemed to have not received any response...
Even just now, when he deliberately teased her like this, she still looked like she wanted to be angry but didn't dare to.
His serious and gentle attitude didn't seem much different from when they first met.
He thought...
It turned out that he was overthinking it.
Thinking of this, the smile on Shen Weiqi's face gradually faded.
After thinking it over for a while, he replied lazily, "Oh, I guess I did."
Jiang Zhi noticed that something was wrong with Shen Weiqi and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
What's wrong?
Of course, it was because the girl I had been pursuing for a long time didn’t take me seriously, so I felt a little disappointed.
Shen Weiqi seemed to be amused by Jiang Zhi's clueless expression. He curled the corners of his mouth lazily and asked casually, "Do you really want to know?"
Noticing that Shen Weiqi seemed reluctant to speak, Jiang Zhi didn't intend to embarrass him any further: "If you don't want to say it, you don't have to."
There was that curious yet not-so-difficult attitude again.
Shen Weiqi smiled faintly, as if his rebellious heart was aroused.
She didn't want to know, but he insisted on telling her.
Shen Weiqi propped up his chin with his arm on the table: "You don't have any unreasonable expectations of me..."
"But I have you."
“!”
Jiang Zhi sat up straight in shock, standing there in a daze.
Shen Weiqi retracted his arm and put away his lazy expression. His black pupils focused on Jiang Zhi, and his beautiful peach blossom eyes were slightly curved, as if smiling.
His smile was calm and serious, without a trace of cynicism, and he seemed like a completely different person.
He stared at Jiang Zhi, his eyes locked on her, his thoughts going back to two years ago. When he first met Jiang Zhi, the network administrator at the internet cafe, he felt that she was special.
Although network administrators and players are the most common passers-by in life, Shen Weiqi just remembered the little network administrator whose eyes were shining when he was playing games.
Passionate and flamboyant, it seemed as if the small body was filled with energy, and every little fluctuation was filled with love for the game.
At one glance, just one glance, Shen Weiqi was shocked.
So, when he agreed to join ITG, it was ultimately selfish. He figured that since his network manager had recommended him to join ITG, then with his talent, if he ever wanted to become a professional player in his adult life, he might also join ITG.
But... he waited for two years, and the young network administrator had no intention of joining a professional team. Instead, he was doing very well in the anchor circle.
Shen Weiqi called softly, "Zhizhi."
Jiang Zhi: "Hmm?"
Shen Weiqi seemed to be muttering to himself, "You know what? At Worlds, we lost to HG in a shocking upset. I was completely devastated. In the post-match locker room, I even considered giving up on ITG and looking for my next team. But when I was searching for my next team on Weibo, I saw your trending search. In an instant, the thought of leaving disappeared. I even felt like the world was illuminated by light."
Jiang Zhi: "..."
Although she didn't want to spoil the mood when Shen Weiqi confessed his love.
But the hot search that made his eyes light up when Shen Weiqi said it was probably a sentence she said during the live broadcast - ITG did not deserve to win.
Shen Weiqi didn't seem to notice her distraction.
But from Jiang Zhi's dazed expression, he subtly realized his own abruptness.
His sudden confession this time... seemed to have really scared the little lion disguised as a well-behaved kitten.
Shen Weiqi turned around and smiled: "Sorry, did I scare you?"
"Ah?" Jiang Zhi, feeling a little dizzy from Shen Weiqi's sudden confession, was stunned. "No... I wasn't scared."
Seeing Jiang Zhi's bewildered expression, Shen Weiqi admitted his mistake and said half-jokingly: "I... was just kidding."
Jiang Zhi replied somewhat disappointedly: "Oh."
Shen Weiqi seemed to be really helpless with Jiang Zhi: "Eat quickly, and then we'll go back to the club."
"good."
In the afternoon, Jiang Zhi returned to the club and played a few games in duo with the new support Lin Chong'an, hoping to improve their tacit understanding.
Jiang Zhi was confused the whole day, and kept thinking about her conversation with Shen Weiqi during the day.
Lin Chong'an seemed to feel extremely fresh as it was the first time for him to play duo with Jiang Zhi as an official ITG team member, and he kept chattering.
Every time Jiang Zhi finished killing a soldier, he would let out an exaggerated exclamation, followed by a burst of shameful flattery.
Jiang Zhi, who was already in a bad mood, tried to stop him several times, but Lin Chong'an couldn't control his mouth at all.
At night, Jiang Zhi returned to her dormitory and made herself a glass of boiled water.
Then he sat in the kitchen chair and lost himself in thought.
What lingers in my mind is still the content of the day.
Jiang Zhi felt that even if she racked her brains, she couldn't guess what Shen Weiqi was thinking.
I just sent a message for help.
She first exchanged some polite words with Jiang Sui.
[Super cute Zhizhi baby: Brother. ]
Jiang Sui replied quickly: [What? ]
[Super cute Zhizhi baby: I have a question for you. ]
[Super cute Zhizhi baby: If a boy confesses his feelings to you and then says it was just a joke, what does he mean?]
[Jiang Sui: Oh, then he must be mentally ill.]
[Super cute Zhizhi baby: Why? ]
[Jiang Sui: If he wasn't mentally ill, would he confess to me? Can't he see that I'd rather die than be gay?]
[Super cute Zhizhi baby: ...]
It’s still a piece of shit after all.
Following Jiang Sui's train of thought, Jiang Zhi gave up completely.
She went to ask Zhou Suihe again.
She just sent a message to Zhou Suihe, "Are you there?", and Zhou Suihe replied very quickly.
[Pixie Zhou: Ahhhh, Zhizhi, we haven't been in touch for a long time. Woohoo, I thought you forgot about your fan club president after you became famous.]
[Super cute Zhizhi baby: No, I'm just busy with training recently.]
[Pi Zhou: I'll come visit you some other day. I'll bring your favorite game console.]
[Super cute Zhizhi baby: Sure. Oh, by the way, I have something to ask you.]
【Pie Zhou: What’s the matter?】
Jiang Zhi copied the words he had sent to Jiang Sui and sent them to Zhou Suihe.
Zhou Suihe thought for a while and asked, "Who is the protagonist?"
Jiang Zhi was too embarrassed to tell the truth and said vaguely: "My two friends."
[Pie Zhou: Is she pretty? ]
Jiang Zhi looked at her own reflection in the kitchen glass and said, "I think the girl is pretty good-looking, and as for the boy... he's not bad either."
[Pie Zhou: If a man is good-looking, I guess it's really a joke.]
[Super cute Zhizhi baby: Why? I think girls are quite attractive.]
[Pian Zhou: You've never been in a relationship, so you don't understand. Nowadays, good-looking guys have their eyes set on the sky and won't come down to earth easily.]
[Super cute Zhizhi baby: Oh. ]
Zhou Suihe added.
[Pixie Zhou: Tell your friends not to worry. It's all good to say nice things. It's not like chasing after someone you'll never catch up with. But if they look back once, they'll be yours for life.]
Jiang Zhi stared at the phone screen, seeming to think that what Zhou Suihe said made a lot of sense.
[Super cute Zhizhi baby: OK.]
Jiang Zhi had just replied to Zhou Suihe and before he could do anything else, Wuzei called.
Jiang Zhi took it and said, "Hello?"
As soon as he heard her voice, Squid's surprised tone immediately penetrated the phone and fell into Jiang Zhi's ears: "Hahaha, Second Master, it's me, Squid."
Jiang Zhi: "I know, what's the matter?"
Squid: "Hahahaha, I tell you, hahahaha, big news."
Jiang Zhi: "What big news?"
Squid: "Hahaha, before, when that shameless Shen Weiqi kept giving gifts to Ye Dominate the World in the live broadcast room, we all thought he liked you. Later, when we found out that you were the boss's daughter, we didn't dare to continue joking with you two."
Jiang Zhi was a little helpless: "Get to the point, I didn't understand what you said."
Squid: "Hahaha, here comes the point. We all thought Shen Weiqi liked you. But just now, he told me that he confessed to a girl he liked today. Hahaha, it would have been fine if he just confessed, but halfway through the confession, he chickened out. He said he was joking. Hahaha, who is he? Shen Weiqi, a man with a thick skin that can be compared to the width of the Pacific Ocean, actually chickened out when confessing his love."
Jiang Zhi remained silent.
Squid continued, "Hahaha, I'm dying of laughter, Second Master, why aren't you laughing? When I told He Xiaoxi about this, he nearly laughed his way through the entire building. Hahahaha, I can't take it anymore, this incident has such a strong aftereffect."
Jiang Zhi: "Who else did you tell about this?"
Squid: "Hahaha, huh? Are you talking about me? He Xiaoxi, Lao Xing, Han Bing, Lin Chong'an, they all know. Hahaha, I didn't dare to say it in the group, for fear of being discovered by Shen Weiqi and the person he confessed to, so I called and informed everyone one by one. Hahaha, I can't hold it anymore, I'm dying of laughter."
Jiang Zhi: “Do you know who Shen Weiqi is joking about?”
Squid: "Hahaha, Master Er, do you know anything? Tell me now, I want to see who it is that scared our Chicken God so much that he even said the words 'I was joking'."
Jiang Zhi: "Really want to know?"
Squid: "Yes, I really do."
Jiang Zhi: "It's me."
Squid: "Huh?"
Jiang Zhi: "Well, one of the protagonists in the story that almost made you die of laughter is me."
