Chapter 50 Junior
Cheng Che returned to the dormitory and happened to run into the internet celebrity friend that Yang Mingxi had brought with him. The internet celebrity excitedly greeted him, "Senior! I finally meet you!"
Yang Mingxi explained, "Brother Che...this is my friend Lu Jiayi. He came to play with me today. Let's grab something and leave."
Lu Jiayi pestered Cheng Che for his WeChat account, and even mentioned that he had met Cheng Che before and called him "Senior." "Senior, you're from No. 7 Middle School, right? I'm also from No. 7 Middle School, a year below you. Do you still remember me?"
Cheng Che finally looked the person in front of him in the eye. Lu Jiayi quickly lifted his bangs and pulled his eyelids into a straight line. "I used to look like this. Senior, do you remember me?"
I have some impression of it.
When Cheng Che was in junior high school and was rebellious, he had several fights with thugs in society. He also started practicing his boxing skills at that time. The reason for the fights seemed to be that those thugs bullied a little boy and he couldn't stand it.
"It's you."
"Yes! It's me! Senior still remembers me!"
Lu Jiayi was deeply moved, "I didn't expect that senior still remembered me."
Yang Mingxi was a little confused about this development. Lu Jiayi was the nephew of the president of the company he signed with, and a very popular e-sports anchor. Logically, he had no direct connection with him, a comedian. But one day, Lu Jiayi saw his live broadcast room and kept giving him rewards, and even connected with him for a live broadcast.
Later, they added each other on WeChat, and Lu Jiayi kept asking about his roommate's younger brother. Yang Mingxi was shocked to realize that he came for Cheng Che, but how could he dare to refuse the boss's nephew who wanted to play with him.
"Brother Che, you're going to the library, right? Go quickly, it's too late and there won't be any seats left."
Yang Mingxi tried to interrupt Lu Jiayi's recognition of his relatives.
Ever since he discovered the affair between Cheng Che and Li Zimai, Yang Mingxi has seen everyone as gay. He doesn't dare to bring Li Shen, his rival in love, to Cheng Che, even though Lu Jiayi is completely incomparable to Li Shen.
Lu Jiayi said pitifully, "Senior, are you going to the library? Can I go with you? I dropped out of high school and I will never have the chance to go to college in this lifetime..."
Cheng Che: "I'm not going."
Lu Jiayi still didn't give up. "Then can you add me on WeChat? I'm really grateful for your help back then. Later, my family sent me out, and I've been asking about you outside. I wanted to thank you in person..."
Lu Jiayi finally stopped making a fuss after being added on WeChat. She smiled as she sent Cheng Che downstairs and tried to keep up with him.
Yang Mingxi held him back: "Goodbye."
Lu Jiayi held his phone and smiled contentedly, "Okay, thank you for today. I'll ask my uncle to give you a bonus when I get home~"
Yang Mingxi was speechless. He just didn't want to be fired, but he wasn't greedy for any bonus. Lu Jiayi was taller than him, but his personality was like a child. His emotions came and went quickly. He didn't want to offend a rich second-generation man casually.
Every night at ten o'clock, Lizimai sent a preview message on time and then made a video call. This went on for a week.
"Baby...I missed you so much."
On the other side of the video, Li Zimai was curled up in bed, his hair messy, as if he had just woken up. "My brother is so annoying. There are so many things to deal with, one after another, and he can't even finish them all."
Cheng Che had just come out of the library. There were few people on the campus roads. He was wearing headphones and was not staring at the camera. The picture was shaking and Li Zimai could only see the pitch-black road.
"Put your phone up. I want to see you."
Cheng Che didn't want to pay attention to him and continued on the video as if he had completed a task. Li Zimai was very dissatisfied, "Don't you miss me? Why am I the only one who misses you?"
Cheng Che reluctantly raised his phone and squeezed his face into the frame. The street lights were too dim, and Li Zimai couldn't see clearly at all. He complained, "You don't live at home."
"When will you be back?"
Li Zimai was immediately distracted, "Three more days at most! Do you miss me?"
Cheng Che said calmly, "The exam is next Saturday."
"I know you miss me, but you don't say it."
“…”
On the other side of the screen, Li Zimai walked into the bathroom with his cell phone. Cheng Che felt nothing in his heart. Li Zimai would video chat with him every time he went to the bathroom, and would put his cell phone on the sink when he washed up, not wasting a single moment.
Li Zimai started brushing his teeth with his upper body naked. Halfway through, someone knocked on the door. The knock was very light, every few seconds. Li Zimai thought it was the aunt at home, so he went to open the door with his mobile phone, and then the screen suddenly went black.
When it came back to light, Li Zimai had already put on a short-sleeved shirt with the threads hanging out. It was obvious that he had put it on in a panic.
Cheng Che thought of those messages from [Yang] and asked coldly, "Who is it?"
Li Zimai was stunned for a few seconds, then quickly explained, "It's Yang Yanning. He's my mom's student, and he came to visit her."
Seeing Cheng Che didn't respond, Li Zimai said anxiously: "I didn't contact him. I didn't know he would come to our house. My mother wants to receive him. I can't just chase him away. I'll wait until he leaves before going downstairs. Honey, don't be angry, okay?"
Cheng Che said "Oh" and said, "You were not wearing any clothes just now."
"I was wrong! I must dress properly next time! Not even Ermang can see my naked body!"
Ermang is a Czech wolfdog raised by the housekeeper in Li Zimai's family.
When Cheng Che returned to the dormitory, Yang Mingxi was playing PUBG in a four-person team match with Lu Jiayi. The game was intense. When he heard Cheng Che coming back, he automatically lowered his volume. Lu Jiayi on the other end noticed it and asked him if the senior had returned to the dormitory.
The other party had thoroughly understood Cheng Che's daily routine and specifically chose to talk to him when Cheng Che was in the dormitory. Yang Mingxi lied without blushing or beating her heart, "It's the aunt who's checking the dormitory."
Cheng Che glanced at the pile of trash boxes in the corner and asked Yang Mingxi, "Do you still want this?"
Yang Mingxi immediately said, "I'll take it out and throw it away later!"
Li Zimai hadn't posted the video yet. In the group chat, he tagged Yang Mingxi to pay attention to the dormitory hygiene, and said to Cheng Che, "Don't help him clean. Go wash up and go to bed."
"I'm hanging up."
"...Do you want to take a shower?"
"Um."
"Then take me to the bathroom! I'll watch you wash!"
Cheng Che cursed him out as a psychopath and mercilessly hung up the call. A few seconds later, the chat interface lit up again.
【Li】：Baby~ Xiao Maimai misses you so much~
Cheng Che turned off his phone screen with a blushing face.
Lu Jiayi vaguely heard Cheng Che's voice, as if he was talking to someone on the phone, and asked Yang Mingxi: "Is senior in love?"
Yang Mingxi was trying to figure out how to respond. As it stood, Li Shen and Che Ge hadn't yet announced their relationship. He was one of the few insiders, deeply trusted by the two bosses, so he couldn't speak without permission. But this Lu Jiayi was clearly trying to steal their girlfriend...
"Yes, Brother Che has a partner."
Yang Mingxi felt that he had done the right thing.
Lu Jiayi didn't show any intense emotions. Instead, he sighed, "Hey, it's strange that senior is so handsome and doesn't have a partner. Isn't his sister-in-law particularly beautiful?"
Yang Mingxi: "Uh, guess so."
"Is she from your school? I don't think there are many pretty girls in your school. I wonder which girl is so lucky..."
Yang Mingxi didn't dare to say anything. If this kid knew that his senior's girlfriend was a man, who knows what big drama would happen.
Two days later, Yang Mingxi was once again blocked by Lu Jiayi at the foot of the dormitory building. He was very depressed. Why was the school's supervision so lax now? They let anyone in?
"Is the senior back?"
"No! I told you he doesn't live in the dorm that often, so there's no point in you coming."
Lu Jiayi nodded, "So I asked him where his off-campus house was, but you didn't tell me."
Yang Mingxi replied calmly: "I really don't know, go ask him yourself, didn't we add him on WeChat?"
"If I could ask, what else would I need you for?"
"Brother Che doesn't like to chat with others, so don't bother him."
"I didn't bother him, I just said hello."
Yang Mingxi glanced at him and felt that Lu Jiayi was quite pitiful. He had few friends and was a bit immature. He was a typical fool with a lot of money. Those little internet celebrities in the company were always sticking to him and sucking his blood, but this guy was still laughing foolishly.
"We have an English exam this weekend, and he's busy studying. I guess he didn't reply to your message. Just wait a few days and see."
"Oh, I'll wait a little longer then."
The night before the CET-4 and CET-6 exams, Yang Mingxi tentatively asked Cheng Che, "Brother Che, that...that Lu Jiayi..."
Cheng Che thought for a moment and asked, "What's wrong?"
The next day was the English exam, and Yang Mingxi's delaying tactics were about to fail. If Cheng Che didn't reply to Lu Jiayi's WeChat after the exam, Yang Mingxi really couldn't find any excuse. He gritted his teeth and said, "...Lu Jiayi asked me...why didn't you reply to his message..."
Before Cheng Che could say anything, Yang Mingxi denied himself and said, "Brother Che, you don't need to pay any attention to him! Just go about your business! His brain isn't working very well! Just ignore him!"
Cheng Che thought for a few seconds, flipping through the chat history, and then asked, "What's his name?"
"Lu Jiayi!"
"No, I mean the online name."
“…”
It turns out that even the remarks were not changed.
Cheng Che did not change the note. I don’t know who is who. He doesn’t have many friends on WeChat, and even if he adds them, they don’t chat much. Even Li Zimai is still called [哩].
"He's my boss's nephew. He used to play esports abroad. My boss was worried that playing professionally would harm his health, so he opened a live streaming room for him. He's been bothering me lately and wants to play with you. Of course, I don't agree. Brother Che doesn't have time to play with a kid, so I immediately refused."
Yang Mingxi tried to clear himself, "If Brother Che doesn't want to play with him, just reply to him on WeChat?"
Cheng Che nodded, "Let's talk about it tomorrow."
"Oh, okay! Good night, Brother Che!"
After lying on the bed, Yang Mingxi asked again: "Has Li Shen not returned to school yet? It's been more than half a month, right?"
Cheng Che didn't say anything, but silently glanced at the chat interface on his phone. Li Zimai, who promised to come back in a week, hasn't come back yet and is going to miss tomorrow's exam.
