Chapter 70 Choice
"Zhiyu—" Yu Zhi explained anxiously, "Brother Wen Yu was thinking that we might be able to form a team during the league, so he asked me to help him calm down."
Qiao Zhiyu didn't loosen his clenched fist until the girl's soft hand covered it with worry.
"Aren't you being too selfish?" Xie Wenyu said calmly, "Xiao Zhi is not your property. I have no obligation to heal you alone."
Qiao Zhiyu remained silent.
He knew rationally that it was inevitable for Yu Zhi to comfort other extraordinary people. After all, the ratio of extraordinary people to healers in the league team was 4:1.
But knowing it rationally is one thing, and being able to accept it emotionally is another.
When he thought about Yu Zhi being so close to other people, his heart felt like it was being torn by thousands of ants, and the surging jealousy almost swallowed him.
Qiao Zhiyu said with difficulty: "You can let her hold your arm, why is it necessary to hold hands?"
"That won't work," Xie Wenyu said casually, then changed the subject, "Besides, who are you to ask me for this?"
Qiao Zhiyu fell silent again.
He could rely on brotherhood and status to suppress Sheng Jiayi's fluctuating thoughts, but facing Xie Wenyu's questioning, he had no better reliance or reason.
"Third place, Xie Wenyu." The broadcast announcement sounded at the right time.
Xie Wenyu gently stroked his swollen cheek and turned to walk towards the meeting room.
This ended the dispute.

"Zhi Yu, why are you angry?" Yu Zhi asked in confusion.
It is normal for healers to comfort different extraordinary people before matching them with a fixed partner.
Not to mention that in military academies, the extraordinary people who need to train and fight for a long time need to receive treatment even more.
Qiao Zhiyu was actually convinced for a moment, and felt like a unreasonable child.
"I'm sorry," he said in a hoarse voice, "I was impulsive."
His self-esteem made him unwilling to express his true thoughts.
Moreover, Yu Zhi was only assigned to the same group with him because of the simulation competition, and now that the simulation competition is over, he seems to have no reason to keep her by his side.
Unless... Yu Zhi herself agrees to become his partner.
"Zhizhi," Qiao Zhiyu said nervously, bringing up the topic he had wanted to discuss during the simulation. "Will you be my partner?"
Yu Zhi was stunned for a moment, then lowered her eyes evasively: "But if the central intelligent brain matched with someone else..."
The regulations of the Federation and the Empire are different. Before the central intelligent computer confirms the match, the healer has the right to have close contact with multiple extraordinary people, and the relationship between the healer and the extraordinary people will also become a consideration when the intelligent computer matches.
But there are still situations where the matching results are not satisfactory to everyone, which would be embarrassing.
"Besides... I think it's too early now." She whispered in confusion.
Qiao Zhiyu was somewhat disappointed as expected. This request was indeed too early and too presumptuous.
"So how do you feel about me?" He wanted to confirm, "Do you like me... a little bit?"
After the impulse faded, he became timid again like a young boy facing the person he secretly loves.
At that time, I was confident that Yu Zhi liked me too, but when I really asked her, I felt uneasy.
Yu Zhi's cheeks flushed, her fingers clenched the hem of her clothes, and she hummed softly, "I like it."
The tension on Qiao Zhiyu's face turned into visible joy.
At least, he wasn't wishful thinking.
My heart seemed to come back to life and began to beat strong and powerfully again.
His sharp and deep eyes were filled with tenderness and affection that was dedicated only to Yu Zhi.
This topic is over.
Yu Zhi curiously asked about the performance of others in the simulation competition.
"This time it was mainly due to a setting error, which prevented the healer and the extraordinary person from landing at the same point," Qiao Zhiyu said with some regret, "otherwise, my points would definitely be even further apart."
"Barritt was able to get second place because he was so close to his healer."
Yu Zhi nodded in realization and asked, "Do you know why Chen Wang is only ranked twelfth?"
Qiao Zhiyu paused for a moment before speaking with a complicated expression, "He didn't go find a healer..."
Chen Wang's behavior in the mock competition is the negative example that teachers use as a warning.
His landing point was not far from the healer, but Chen Wang had no intention of looking for the healer. Instead, he cleaned up the strange beasts on his own.
Fortunately, the healer also came from a common family and was used to being self-reliant since childhood. In the extreme environment of the extremely cold planet, he also showed surprising tenacity.
It lasted for 28 hours before being eliminated by a strange beast it happened to encounter.
Chen Wang was naturally eliminated as well, but he kept killing strange beasts endlessly. Even though he was eliminated so many hours early, he still managed to get twelfth place.
Qiao Zhiyu could roughly guess what Chen Wang was thinking. As an emotional rival, he also felt sincere admiration and admiration.
Chen Wang's behavior and attitude show his determination to be with Yu Zhi.
He refused even superficial contact with other healers.
Qiao Zhiyu asked himself, if he put himself in the other person's shoes, he would probably find it difficult to make the same choice when there was no precedent.
Yu Zhi was also stunned, and she also realized what Chen Wang's choice meant.
The young people's sincere and passionate love, without any interest or disguise, is really touching.

Chen Wang stood in the meeting room.
In contrast, Qiao Zhiyu’s competition process serves as a positive example.
"Look at what others do!" the teachers said with regret.
"In this situation, the first thing you should do is find your healer!"
"If you had protected the Healer well in this match, with your strength, you would definitely be in the top three! Tell me if it's a pity or not."
Chen Wang was like a stubborn donkey and did not agree with the teachers' words.
It seemed as if he was saying that if he had the chance again, he would still make the same choice.
But his eyes were fixed on the two people sleeping in each other's arms in the tent in the middle of the screen.
My heart felt like it was being torn in two and it hurt so much that I could hardly breathe.
The teacher of the Mecha Department saw him looking at the screen with red eyes, and also heard that Chen Wang and Yu Zhi had a good relationship, so he wanted to comfort him.
"Don't think too much about it. This is normal for healers and extraordinary people. After all, the closer they are, the better the soothing effect will be."
But Chen Wang could hardly listen anymore. The silver dragon in his spiritual sea became restless as his mood changed, and there were even signs of a riot.
