Chapter 41: Hidden Skills Jiang Ci's childhood shouldn't be like this...
"Do you think it's possible?" Yu Xiang replied with his eyelids twitching.
Fang Chengyu, who arrived right after Zhang Miao, saw Jiang Ci, who was empty-handed, and immediately realized something: "I see. You two put your coins together, right?"
Yu Xiang pulled the corner of his mouth, and replied with a somewhat embarrassed expression: "Well, you could say that."
"But can we tell who has used how many? What if they use too many?" Zhang Miao asked doubtfully.
"Only people who are not familiar with each other can tell the difference so clearly. It doesn't matter if you use more or less." Fang Chengyu said slowly.
Hearing this, Zhang Miao slyly stretched out his claws towards the basket in Fang Chengyu's hand: "Then let's put Old Fang in the same basket too. It will make it look more... Hey!"
Before he could finish, Fang Chengyu, who had already guessed what he was going to do, had already alertly protected his basket and quickly distanced himself from Zhang Miao: "Get lost. Don't even think about it."
"Fuck, Old Fang, how come you change your attitude faster than turning the pages of a book?" Zhang Miao looked distraught. "Don't you think we're familiar with each other?"
Fang Chengyu: "You're overthinking it. I just wanted to say that the informality between acquaintances is out of trust, but I'm 100% sure that you will take advantage of me."
"I'm sad, Lao Fang. Is this how I look to you?"
"I suggest you think about how many of my drinks you've finished since we met."
"Well, I usually share snacks with you."
"Stop it, you two. You're both the same," Yu Xiang interrupted, his voice aching. "If you don't want to be the center of attention, just shut up."
As soon as Yu Xiang spoke, the two men immediately shut up. They then looked around again, and finally couldn't help but lean over and whisper, "But Brother Yu, it seems like we've become the focus of the whole place."
Most of the people coming and going around were young men and women. When they passed by and saw Yu Xiang and Jiang Ci, who were both very outstanding in appearance and height, standing side by side, they would always take a few more glances at them intentionally or unintentionally.
"That's all your fault, reflect on it." Yu Xiang's mouth twitched slightly, and he pretended to be calm and passed the blame.
Zhang Miao's eyes widened upon hearing this, and he said aggrievedly, "It's unfair, Brother Yu, they were clearly looking at you—"
"Let's go." As soon as Zhang Miao said the word "look," Jiang Ci naturally pulled Yu Xiang's wrist and led him to the inner hall. "We're here to have fun, not to be exhibits."
"Brother Jiang, wait for us!" Zhang Miao reacted quickly. He hurriedly grabbed Fang Chengyu, who was still stunned, and chased after him.
This video game arcade is very large, with colorful lights flashing overhead, making the faces of the guests who come to play colorful as well. At the same time, various music comes from different directions.
"What are we playing--" Because the music was too loud, Zhang Miao had to speak in a louder voice.
"I already have a plan, but it can only be a PK between two teams at most. What do you think?" Yu Xiang's eyes seemed to glance somewhere inadvertently. It was unknown what he thought of, and a faint smile hung on the corner of his mouth.
"Then take turns, I'll follow you!"
"Me too!"
At this time, Zhang Miao and Fang Chengyu fully demonstrated their brotherly spirit and expressed it without thinking.
"But first of all, I'm not sure if you can do that thing." Yu Xiang raised his eyebrows and reminded.
Zhang Miao hadn't realized the seriousness of the situation yet. He pointed at Jiang Ci disapprovingly and said, "Will Brother Jiang do it?"
Yu Xiang nodded: "He will."
Zhang Miao immediately patted his chest and said, "Then we will!"
Although Jiang Ci is far ahead in his studies, when it comes to games, there is no reason why Jiang Ci can do something that he can't.
"Hmm... I think... forget it." Yu Xiang hesitated for a moment before finally saying nothing. He turned to look at Jiang Ci, "Remember when I said we wanted to try something new? You agreed."
Jiang Ci had roughly guessed Yu Xiang's thoughts at this time, and replied calmly: "..."
The music in the room happened to be at its most exciting part, drowning out Jiang Ci's voice. Yu Xiang couldn't hear the content clearly, so he moved closer and tried to raise his voice: "What did you say just now - I didn't hear clearly -"
Jiang Ci moved his upper and lower lips, as if he was saying something.
Yu Xiang's eyebrows twitched as he complained, "God damn it, can you speak louder?" At a time like this, please don't worry about whether speaking loudly is not elegant enough!
Jiang Ci thought for half a second, then lowered his head, leaned down slightly, and leaned close to Yu Xiang's ear, his warm breath sweeping across the other's ear: "I said, I won't refuse."
After he finished speaking, he tilted his head to check Yu Xiang's reaction and waited for a response, but the latter seemed to be stunned and did not move for a long time.
"Didn't you hear?"
"Ah, I heard it." Yu Xiang finally came to his senses, a suspicious blush on the tip of his ear. "Well, well, let's go over there."
Jiang Ci straightened up and raised his hand towards him: "Then you lead the way."
Yu Xiang responded immediately, raising his foot and running straight in a certain direction.
"That's weird. Why is Brother Yu walking with his hands and feet together?" Fang Chengyu looked at Yu Xiang's back and glanced at Jiang Ci, the suspected culprit, with confusion on his face. "What did you say to him just now?"
"Nothing, maybe he has something on his mind." Jiang Ci spoke louder this time than before - at least he didn't have to be as close as Yu Xiang had just now to hear him clearly.
After he finished speaking, he took a long step and walked towards Yu Xiang.
"Old Fang." Zhang Miao patted Fang Chengyu's shoulder heavily and said earnestly, "I don't know if it was my imagination, but Brother Jiang had a smile on his face just now, which looked like a sign of triumph."
"I don't think it's your illusion." Fang Chengyu couldn't figure it out for a while, so he simply gave up thinking about it. "Let's go and follow them first."
Half a minute later.
Zhang Miao looked at the machine in front of him, and the expression on his face changed again and again, which was extremely exciting.
If there wasn't air conditioning in the room, he would probably be sweating profusely by now.
"Sanshui, remember not to bring me along next time you brag." Fang Chengyu's expression at this moment was exactly the same as Zhang Miao's, and he said with gritted teeth.
Zhang Miao was about to burst into tears: "How would I have known that Brother Yu would choose Dance Dance Revolution?"
Yu Xiang spread his hands helplessly: "So I already gave you a heads-up just now, you're just being stubborn."
Zhang Miao raised his hand to wipe the non-existent cold sweat from his forehead and laughed dryly, "Brother Yu, can I regret this..."
"I knew it." Yu Xiang tried hard to hold back his laughter, but he finally gave Zhang Miao a way out. "Go play something else with Lao Fang. We'll come find you later."
"By the way, you guys can actually play this?" Fang Chengyu realized this belatedly and said in surprise.
"I know a little bit. I learned street dance for a while before, and I was very good at it. But I haven't played it for a long time, so I don't know how much I still remember." Yu Xiang answered without thinking.
"Fuck, Brother Yu, you're such a hidden talent!" Zhang Miao was also shocked when he heard it. "Why have I never heard you say you can also do street dance?"
Yu Xiang replied confidently, "Should I report everything I know to you?"
"That's not necessary... But why does Brother Jiang know it too?" Zhang Miao then remembered that Yu Xiang had just said that Jiang Ci could do it too, and then turned his gaze to Jiang Ci who was silent aside.
Shouldn't a college genius like Jiang Ci have spent his childhood in various cram schools?
"Because he and I attended the same street dance training camp." Jiang Ci suddenly answered the question for Yu Xiang.
Zhang Miao's mind skipped a beat when he heard that, and he blurted out, "Why not a cram school?"
Jiang Ci: "..."
"Sanshui." Even though he didn't want to admit it, Yu Xiang decided to tell Zhang Miao the truth. "His grades are all his own work. It has nothing to do with cram school."
"Yes, Sanshui, I beg you to say less. The more you ask, the more you will be hit." Fang Chengyu sighed heavily and agreed.
"Comparison is the thief of anger." Yu Xiang shook his head. "Why don't you leave?"
"I haven't seen you dance yet. I want to stay and watch." Zhang Miao said immediately.
"Who told you you have to dance on a dance machine?" Yu Xiang said, turning around to glance at the machine behind him. There were two girls in short shorts dancing to the rhythm. Then he turned back with a blank face: "You better not be looking at beautiful women."
Zhang Miao: "How is that possible!"
At Zhang Miao's insistence, Fang Chengyu also chose to stay here temporarily.
After the two girls finished their last song, they came down from the stage and turned around to see two handsome young men standing beside them. Their faces immediately blushed.
"Hello, are you still playing?" Jiang Ci politely walked up to one of the girls and asked.
"No, no, no! You guys play!" The girl said, blushing as she pulled her companion aside. Her hands were shaking with excitement. She took the other girl's hand and whispered, "She's so beautiful! Can you help me get her WeChat?"
Jiang Ci didn't even have time to say "thank you", he could only nod slightly at them to show his gratitude.
At this time, Yu Xiang had already stood on one of the platforms, took out the corresponding number of coins and put them into the coin slot. Then he counted a few and turned to Jiang Ci and said, "Hold out your hand."
Jiang Ci obediently spread out his palm, and Yu Xiang placed the coins in his palm. His cold fingertips slid across the skin on his palm, making him startled: "Why are my hands so cold?"
"The air conditioning is too strong." Yu Xiang didn't pay much attention to it. He withdrew his hand and turned his attention to the display screen. "Easy or medium difficulty, please choose one?"
Jiang Ci glanced at the song list displayed on the screen and expressed his doubts: "Isn't this divided by star rating? What is the basis for your distinction between easy, medium and difficult?"
"1-3 stars are easy, 4-6 stars are medium, and 7-9 are difficult." Yu Xiang looked at him suspiciously. "Aren't you very smart? Why are you asking this?"
Jiang Ci calmly explained, "I'm just afraid you'll have another inopportune moment and decide 1 to 7 stars are easy, 8 stars are medium, and 9 stars are difficult."
"I—" Yu Xiang was about to retort, but suddenly remembered that he had done just that a long time ago. He swallowed the rest of his words and changed his words, "Anyway, I've already told you the basis. Choose quickly."
