Ji Mushu's expression softened slightly, and her gaze towards Dong Yike became somewhat complicated.
"Don't look at me like that."
Dong Yike waved her hand dismissively, then laughed, "I felt like I didn't perform well that day, it's all Yu Mobai's fault."
Ji Mushu didn't continue the topic; some things are better left unsaid.
As for Yu Mobai, she didn't want to mention him right now.
But the drilling noise from the other side was so loud that she had to turn her attention outside.
Ji Mushu looked at the familiar words in the corner of the plaque and felt inexplicably wronged.
I've already left, why do you insist on coming after me?
She turned her head slightly, and where Dong Yike couldn't see, she subtly wiped the corner of her eye.
"There's a competition in a few days, and Xiaobaibai might be there. Do you want to watch it? Or I can come find you and we can watch it together?"
Winter can also extend an invitation.
Ji Mushu shook her head. She came here to escape, so why would she want to move forward?
"Alright then, but there's something I need to tell you."
Dong Yike looked around and whispered, "Xiao Baibai's emotions have been very unstable lately. She often wakes up in the middle of the night and talks in her sleep, saying, 'Wooden comb, how can I live without you, wooden comb.'"
After she finished speaking, she looked up and stared at Ji Mushu.
To everyone's surprise, Ji Mushu showed no expression at all; in fact, her face became even colder.
"Dong Yike, do you think I'm stupid?"
"I knew it! You wouldn't believe this kind of thing. He insisted that I tell you."
Dong Yike smiled and straightened up.
Ji Mushu didn't say anything; her attention was drawn away again by the sound of the electric drill outside the door.
"Little Sister Wooden Comb, I have to go now. I'll come find you for dinner tonight."
Dong Yike said with a smile, "The owner of this coffee shop is back."
Ji Mushu turned around abruptly and saw through the glass a female boss's car parked on the side of the road.
She thought Dong Yike was there to keep her company, but it turned out he was waiting for the owner of this coffee shop.
Watching Dong Yike walk towards the female boss, Ji Mushu rolled her eyes.
She originally intended to leave, but looking at the sign being installed across the street, she didn't know why she didn't want to go.
Ji Mushu stared blankly outside for a long time when Hao Xinqing called, so she simply called her out.
"Hey, which handsome guy are you dating?"
Hao Xinqing smiled and looked at the now-cold cup of coffee, saying, "Are you in a good mood today?"
Ji Mushu withdrew her gaze, a clear look of worry on her face.
"Uh... I take back what I just said."
Hao Xinqing was taken aback and followed her gaze. "What's wrong? What are you looking at?"
Ji Mushu shook her head. "It's nothing."
"Wow, the Teamfight Tactics City League match venue is right next to our school!"
Hao Xinqing suddenly exclaimed.
"You know Teamfight Tactics?"
Ji Mushu asked.
"I know, I even played during the summer vacation."
Hao Xinqing nodded. "I've been too busy since school started recently and haven't had time to play. Do you know that Teamfight Tactics is preparing for that city league?"
Ji Mushu really wanted to say she didn't know, but with all the news flooding her ears every day, it would be too strange not to know, so she could only nod.
"I heard there will be a live broadcast on the official website in a few days, a match between the two schools. I wonder if it will be exciting."
Hao Xinqing said with a smile, "You have to remind me when the time comes, I have to watch it."
Two schools?
Ji Mushu was taken aback. "Which two schools?"
"Oh, one is the Shengjing campus, and the other is the City College."
Hao Xinqing suddenly realized, "Wooden comb, isn't that your school? I didn't even realize it."
Ji Mushu's heart suddenly tightened, and her body stiffened for a moment.
She then comforted herself, thinking that it was just a school competition and she might not even see him, so why be so nervous?
Thinking about it this way, she gradually relaxed.
"Oh, I don't really pay attention to that."
Ji Mushu said something that didn't match her true feelings.
"Oh my, this is really interesting."
Hao Xinqing sat down next to Ji Mushu and shook her arm. "Will you come with me to watch the competition this time? I heard that the big boss of this game will also participate in this competition between the two schools. I want to see if he's handsome or not."
"Hehe...hehe."
Ji Mushu forced a smile. "Forget it... I still need to study. Besides, I don't really like games."
"Oh dear, the competition is on the weekend, what are you going to study for?"
Hao Xinqing continued to shake her arm, "Good wooden comb, you'll keep me company while I look at it."
"Stop shaking it, it's going to fall apart."
Ji Mushu sighed, her expression complicated. "Since you've said that, what can I do? We'll see."
...
The preliminary rounds are still ongoing.
Its popularity is also increasing.
There was even one who attempted malicious revenge after failing to advance; luckily, the police stopped him outside, otherwise who knows what might have happened.
This was just a minor incident, and everyone quickly forgot about it.
After several days of preliminary rounds, Yu Mobai's team actually made it all the way to the top 16, which even Yu Mobai himself didn't expect.
"Brother Yu, tell the truth, was there any behind-the-scenes manipulation?"
Stepping out of the internet cafe, Wei Yufan felt refreshed. "In the last game, your opponent actually sold one of the flags he had just played. Could it be a spy you planted?"
"He's a gambling addict, what does that have to do with me?"
