Chapter 7 Love Game
In love, girls add and boys subtract.
Qi Lang's so-called love was too short-lived. Dating him was like a consumption, draining away his favorability. When it reached a certain critical point...
The good impression disappeared.
Bai He knew it a long time ago that he was very good to her as a friend; but he was not a qualified lover. At least, from the perspective of Bai He's imagined requirements for her partner, Qi Lang did not meet the requirements.
If a girl asks Bai He to help deliver a small gift to Qi Lang, Bai He will agree, but she will also solemnly advise the girl that this guy is a bit of a scumbag.
Qi Lang didn't know why Bai He suddenly got angry and ignored him. He came over with the wrong answer book and sat down with her at the head of the bed: "What are you doing?"
"Nothing."
"Did I offend you?"
"No, I just don't want to bother with you."
Qi Lang knew that she was being too chaste and was standing up for another girl again. This was not the first time.
He picked up the pillow and put it under his neck, saying lazily, "You're meddling too much, Sayuri. Didn't I ever tell you not to meddle in my affairs?"
"Yes."
"and you..."
"I just don't want to pay attention to you."
“…”
Qi Lang felt uncomfortable all over his body, as if there were bugs crawling in his skin, making him itchy but unable to catch them. He felt very irritated.
He could only explain it by saying, “I don’t think I’ve met true love yet.”
Bai He rolled his eyes.
"Really, I want to find someone I can continue to appreciate and who also understands me. Otherwise, I might as well stay with you guys."
"You can talk about this in a few days."
Bai He knew that it wouldn't be long before there would be beautiful girls around him again.
Qi Lang said, "I'm going back to Hong Kong during the holidays. Do you want to go with me?"
"go back?"
"Well, Dad asked me to go back and take a look."
"Are you looking at him, or is he looking at you?"
"Of course he was looking at me. That old man, what's so good about him?"
Qi Lang has a very indifferent relationship with his parents. He is the child of the third wife of the richest man in Gangcheng. In the early years, there were fierce struggles within the family. The third wife has a Buddhist character and does not want him to be involved in these dirty struggles, so when he was very young, she sent him to Nanxiang City to be taken care of by relatives there.
"It's very expensive to travel to Hong Kong City, right?" Bai He asked.
"You guys go, I'll take care of it."
"No need. If you want to go, my parents will support you." Bai He shrugged, not worrying about it. "Let's see the scores first. If I don't get the scores, I won't feel at ease anywhere I go."
Qi Lang leaned on her thin shoulders and marked her wrong questions: "If you really want to repeat the grade, I will join you."
Bai He nudged him with his shoulder and said, "What a lunatic! Why are you here together? You're guaranteed to get into Peking University or Tsinghua University, okay?"
"A year earlier or later, what does it matter?"
"The college entrance exam is a serious matter. It's a matter of thousands of people competing for a single-plank bridge. Your future is at stake. Don't joke about it."
"My family doesn't need the college entrance examination to give me a future." Qi Langman said nonchalantly, "Why cross a single-plank bridge? All roads lead to Rome."
“…”
Bai He rolled his eyes.
Yes, yes, it’s great to be rich.
"If you don't leave, I won't leave either."
"Qi Lang, all good things must come to an end. We will have to separate one day."
"As long as I don't say to break up, no one dares to break up." Qi Lang said firmly.
“…”
He continued, "You and Yanyi are my best friends."
"You and Yan Yi are good friends. Does Yan Yi know about this? I think he really hates you."
"He hates me because..."
Qi Lang's words got stuck in his throat. Why... because Yan Yi liked her?
But what does this have to do with him? Why does Yan Yi hate him?
You little brat, you just love to be jealous.
The two of them leaned against each other, doing their own things, the atmosphere was peaceful and harmonious, until Yan Yi washed the dishes and found that Bai He's door was closed.
He walked over and wanted to push the door open, but then he thought it was not a good idea and knocked on the door with the back of his fingers.
"Enter."
After getting permission, Yan Yi walked in and saw the two of them lying together at the head of the bed reading a book.
Qi Lang is a strong man, and a single bed can't even fit him. Bai He snuggles up to him like a little bird snuggling up to a big dog.
It felt like a fly had gotten into his eyes, stinging them so much that he walked over and pulled Qi Lang off the bed.
"What?"
Yan Yi pushed him out and said, "I've never seen such a casual person. You just casually sleep with a girl?"
"I've slept in her bed before, so what? I've known her longer than you."
He grabbed Qi Lang by the back of his collar and dragged him out of the room.
"Where are you going?"
"Play basketball." Yan Yi slapped the basketball in his hand and pulled Qi Lang into the elevator.
"We just finished eating, who wants to play ball with you?"
Yan Yi pulled Qi Lang out of the building without saying anything. He really couldn't bear to be in the same room with Bai He, breathing the same air and having skin contact.
My whole body, including my hair, is about to explode.
In early summer, the wind carries a sultry heat. On the community basketball court, Qi Lang feels the energy burning in Yan Yi's body. He is not just playing basketball with him, he probably wants to stick the basketball into his body.
Looking at the buzzing backboard after the young man's dunk, Qi Lang put his hands on his hips and gasped, "Are you sick?"
Yan Yi threw the basketball hard to the side, turned his back to him, and tried his best to suppress the anger that was jumping in his chest.
Since when did he start to feel disgusted with Qi Lang's every word, action and gesture?
It was probably from the time he knew that Bai He subconsciously had a secret crush on Qi Lang.
Bai He would definitely refuse to admit it, and Qi Lang was completely unaware of it, but Yan Yi could see that she liked Qi Lang as much as those girls.
Others dare to express themselves, but she doesn't.
She was afraid that she would not be a good friend if she told him, and she was also afraid that Qi Lang would dislike the burn scar on her neck. After all... every girl he had dated in the past was fair-skinned and beautiful.
Qi Lang was completely unaware of this. Not only was Bai He feeling inferior, but Yan Yi would never let Qi Lang find out about this.
He is a romantic and passionate person by nature. Now that you know about this, how can he be good to Bai He?
Nine times out of ten, you'll trick her into having sex with you.
Yan Yi endured it, turned around and said to him: "I was wrong to misunderstand you this afternoon."
"The sun is rising from the north?" Qi Lang patted the ball, turned around and made a jump shot, easily passing the basketball into the basket.
"But you have no sense of boundaries, which can easily lead to misunderstandings." Yan Yi looked him straight in the eyes, "She's not a child anymore, so don't touch her all the time."
Qi Lang could see that this kid was not focused on playing basketball, so he called him out because he wanted to be "honest" with him.
"Why do we need boundaries? I'm open and honest." Qi Lang took a step forward, exuding an overbearing and intimidating aura. "But you, all you care about is her. For the past three years, you've been pretending to be an average student, and you really act like one. When her grades go up, you do well in the exams, and when her grades go down, you follow suit... You really are her little follower."
"It's just a coincidence."
"Coincidence? You and I won the national gold medal in the junior high math Olympiad together. Is that also a coincidence?"
"I only took it once."
"That's because Sayuri didn't make the finals. From then on, you never participated in extracurricular competitions like this again. You wanted to stay on par with her through elementary school, middle school, high school...even college. You wanted to stay by her side."
Yan Yi hid his hands behind his back and clenched his fists tightly: "This is just your imagination."
Qi Lang's eyes were sharp, piercing Yan Yi like nails. "Imagination, then tell me again, you skipped from fifth grade to sixth grade in elementary school, and also skipped a grade in junior high school, until you were in the same grade as her. I'm also curious, how did you suddenly become Zhongyong?"
Yan Yi had nothing to say. It was no big deal if he saw through it, as long as Bai He... Bai He didn't doubt it.
"Boy, you have more thoughts towards your sister than you do."
"She's not my sister," Yan Yi said. "She never was."
Qi Lang raised his eyebrows, with a playful look in his eyes.
Just as the two were arguing with each other, Bai He came over with two bottles of water.
When exercising, Qi Lang likes to drink energy water that speeds up blood flow, while Yan Yi only drinks mineral water. She threw a bottle to each of them, and then sat outside the plastic line to watch the two play basketball.
Because of her watching, Yan Yi got excited and rushed forward fiercely. Qi Lang was not willing to be outdone. If Qi Lang scored a goal, he would definitely follow up with a goal. The two of them confronted each other and refused to give in.
However, Bai He yawned after looking for a while, and out of boredom, he took out his cell phone.
The two boys were exhausted from playing. When they looked at Bai He, they saw the little girl leaning against the basketball pole and playing games with great interest.
Qi Lang felt that he was a little stupid. It seemed very immature to compete with Yan Yi, an arrogant underage kid.
He threw the ball and sat next to Bai He: "What game?"
As soon as he approached, Bai He felt a surge of heat.
This guy's body is really hot, especially after exercise. Being next to him is like being warmed by a fire. It's unbearable.
She couldn't help but think that if his wife slept next to him in the future, it would be okay in the winter, but how could she bear it in the summer? She would definitely be burned to death by him.
"What are you thinking about?" He nudged Bai He with his strong arm.
"Nothing!" Bai He was shocked and her cheeks flushed.
Why is she thinking about the scene of him sleeping with his wife? What does it have to do with her?
Qi Lang handed her the half-drunk energy water.
Bai He went to take it, but Yan Yi pushed her hand away, unscrewed the cap of the mineral water he hadn't had time to drink, and handed it to her: "Don't drink those messy drinks during your period."
"oh."
Bai He was used to being taken care of by him, so without thinking much, she took his mineral water and drank it in one gulp.
The three of them sat under the basketball hoop and watched the sunset in the distance. The fiery clouds smoked Qi Lang's white shirt to a scorch yellow. Yan Yi wore a cool fiery red basketball jersey. He had a great figure and fair skin.
Compared to Qi Lang, who looked like he had been drenched by heavy rain after exercise and was sweating profusely, Yan Yi sweated less and felt very refreshed. Bai He leaned on Yan Yi's arm and played games.
Qi Lang came over curiously and said, "No monsters, no equipment, just card drawing, what's so fun about it?"
She plays an otome love game on a very niche platform and has been particularly addicted to it recently.
"You don't understand. If I do a mission with the man I like, I can even get an S-rank plot card if I'm lucky. It's the perfect romance, okay?"
"If you want to be in a relationship so badly, find a real boyfriend. Playing with paper figures is a waste of time."
"Qi Lang, you don't understand anything, don't bother me." She leaned her head on Yan Yi's shoulder and didn't want to pay any attention to him.
Yan Yi casually said, "She drew a card and got some R-rated plot. She was so excited that she almost kicked the bed over in the middle of the night."
“…”
Bai He pushed him, and Yan Yi raised the corner of his mouth modestly and pressed her head back onto his shoulder.
Qi Lang: "So, this is an erotic game."
Bai He quickly explained, "No! The embarrassing plot with my boyfriend can only be found on certain S-rank rare cards. You have to buy them with money. If you rely on luck, you may only get one out of dozens of them."
“So there’s still some eroticism.”
"Ahem, I don't deny it, but after playing for so long, I only got..."
Qi Lang and Yan Yi looked at her at the same time.
She coughed lightly and stretched out her fingers. "I only drew one, a very clear one... I only touched the abdominal muscles."
Qi Lang couldn't understand this: "If you want to touch abs, why not just find a boyfriend with abs? Why spend money to buy a card? Give me this money and I'll let you touch my abs every day, okay?"
Bai He knew he had abdominal muscles, and they were standard eight-pack abs, the kind that made people want to commit crimes...
Her cheeks were slightly pink, and she said, "It's a water card, and it's not just about touching the abdominal muscles, you can do other things..."
Yan Yi didn't want this topic to arise between her and Qi Lang, so he said, "I still have some savings and can help you buy a card if you need it."
Bai He immediately became interested. She knew Yan Yi was actually quite wealthy! Growing up, every year during the Lunar New Year, the amount of lucky money his family gave Yan Yi was several times more than Bai He's!
Because his father was the benefactor who saved Bai He, all the relatives, whether from the Bai family or his mother Tang Xin's side, were very kind to Yan Yi, fearing that he would feel unhappy living under someone else's roof, and they loved him very much and kept him close to them.
Yan Yi's parents often gave him more pocket money behind Bai He's back, thinking that Bai He didn't know. In fact, Yan Yi didn't hide anything from her. If he had extra pocket money, he would give it to his little sister and ask her if she wanted it.
Bai He said, "This is for you, take it yourself."
Yan Yi was afraid that she would be unhappy, but Bai He wouldn't be unhappy. She was carefree and never felt that her parents were partial to her.
Yan Yi has no parents, so no matter how much they love him, he will never be happy. In fact, Bai He loves him more than his parents do, and she will share anything good with Yan Yi.
"How much money have you saved in your small treasury now?" Bai He asked curiously.
Yan Yi took out his phone and showed her his bank card. Qi Lang also came over, but Bai He quickly pushed him away: "What are you looking at?"
"Curious, why can't I watch it?"
"You know Yan Yi is rich, so you might try to trick him out and take advantage of him at any time."
This happened when they were children. Qi Lang lied to Yan Yi and said that his sister wanted a Transformers train. Yan Yi went to buy it and gave it to Bai He. But... Qi Lang still took it to play with.
Qi Lang is rich, but he likes to cheat Yan Yi, and he knows that Yan Yi is deliberately being deceived, and the boy knows it very well.
He would pretend to be innocent and simple, pretend to be easily deceived, and establish the image of a pitiful and silly brother in front of Bai He.
Very scheming.
"Just lend me a hundred yuan." Bai He chuckled and said to Yan Yi, "I've used up all my pocket money this month, and I have an S card that I really want."
"Is one hundred enough?"
"That's enough. One card is one hundred yuan."
Qi Lang frowned and said, "Yan Yi, do you support your sister playing this kind of game with pornographic plots?"
"It's just a game."
Yan Yi thought to himself that playing with paper people is better than playing with certain people.
When Yan Yi transferred the money to Bai He, Qi Lang had already downloaded the game on his mobile phone, logged in and registered, added Bai He's account friend, and then soared to give her twenty S cards.
Bai He was stunned when she saw the gift from his friend: "Qi Lang! One hundred for each!"
Qi Lang raised his chin and looked at Yan Yi: "You're welcome. Tell me when you're done playing and I'll buy you another one."
Bai He: “…”
Seeing the little girl speechless and without any joy on her face, Yan Yi came over to take a look and said sarcastically, "You didn't buy her husband's S card at all. You bought the S card of her husband's enemy, a villain, the person she hates the most."
He didn't care at all what she was playing, or why she was pretending to be a big shot or showing off.
Qi Lang was a little embarrassed and lowered his head to poke into the mall: "Buy it again."
Bai He quickly stopped him: "Don't do that! I won't play if you do that!"
Originally, playing games was a way to relax when one was free, but Qi Lang turned her into a pay-to-win player. Without the surprise of drawing cards, the fun was cut in half.
After Qi Lang agreed not to send any more cards, Bai He let him go. He looked at the several male character cards in the mall and asked curiously, "Xiao Baihe, who is your husband?"
“This is it.”
Bai He pointed at the man on the phone who looked like a domineering boss and was wearing a black suit.
Qi Lang poked into the card and read the character introduction——
"Liang Xiao, the beautiful CEO of LX Group, has short hair, dark eyes, and a teardrop mole at the corner of her eye. She is domineering, affectionate, and jealous. She is uninhibited and loves freedom. She is both bad and passionate. She has a sunny and cheerful personality, and occasionally licks her wounds alone late at night. She has a first-class ability to make money, and her abilities in certain areas are also outstanding."
He casually opened a random plot that had just been triggered, and saw the CEO Liang Xiao pressing the female protagonist named Lily onto the desk, pulling her tie, and domineeringly said, "Did you buy his S card?"
Lily: "This is a misunderstanding. Let me explain."
Liang Xiao pinched her jaw with his tiger's mouth: "Did I ever tell you that you are not allowed to see him without my permission? Woman, you are disobedient."
Lily: "Even if I met him, it's none of your business."
The gloom in Liang Xiao's eyes deepened: "Look at me, do you think I can control you..."
After saying that, he took out a belt and tied the girl's hands, pressed her on the desk, kissed Lily's lips forcefully, turned her over, and slapped her buttocks hard.
“Hahahahahahahahahahahaha.”
Qi Lang threw away his phone and burst into laughter.
Bai He blushed and quickly snatched the phone back: "Qi Lang, you're so annoying! Stop laughing!"
"It's really an erotic game."
"What do you know?"
Qi Lang laughed so hard that his stomach hurt. Bai He was so angry that she could only beat him repeatedly to make him forget the embarrassing incident.
Yan Yi's gaze slid towards the phone screen and saw the forbidden scene.
The blood was boiling silently.
