Chapter 141: Second Round of the Semi-finals: A Wise Man Doesn’t Fall in Love, Shi Chan is a Fool…
"don't want."
Shi Chan refused without even thinking about it.
"Even if that was something Old Fu brought back, it passed through your hands. Who knows if there might be any problems? Minghui, you need to understand our mutual stance. It's one of exploitation and opposition, not friendship where we can exchange small gifts."
After saying that, Shican hung up the phone.
He returned to the room, placed Lin Zhuyue's mobile phone on the bedside, and plugged in the charging cable.
He looked at his girlfriend who was sleeping peacefully and had the idea of playing a prank on her. He picked up a pen, grabbed Lin Zhuyue's wrist and started painting.
The next day, Lin Zhuyue woke up, rubbed his eyes, and got up in a daze to wash up.
When she reached out to turn on the faucet, she discovered that a watch had been drawn on her left hand. The blue ink was quite solid and the watch was not deformed at all.
“Shi Chan——!!”
Lin Zhuyue didn't even wash her face and opened the door to settle the score with Shi Can.
Shi Can happened to be in the corridor. He felt guilty. When Lin Zhuyue rushed over, he turned and ran.
The two people were chasing each other across the floor and stairs in the room, and words like "If you have the guts, don't run" and "Only a fool would not run" were heard one after another, making a lot of noise.
Shi Yingshao was sitting in the restaurant, drinking coffee and reading the newspaper. He turned a page and said:
"Young people are so energetic, making so much noise so early in the morning."
Cui Yi sighed and said:
"Shican has provoked Xiaoyue again."
Shi Yingshao put down the newspaper and suggested, "After this mess is over, how about we go to Norway and live there for two weeks?"
Cui Yi said, "I'd rather go to the port of Murmansk."
"Aren't you afraid of the cold?"
“I’m scared, but I still want to go.”
After Shi Yingshao and Cui Yi left the table and went out to do things, Shi Can and Lin Zhuyue came to the restaurant to have their breakfast.
Probably because Cui Yi and Shi Yingshao came back, breakfast has been prepared with extra care recently. The plump thick egg toast looks very tempting, and it is filled with matsutake mushrooms fried in butter. The fresh and fragrant taste arouses Lin Zhuyue's appetite even more.
After breakfast, they headed to the coast east of Amagi.
Lin Zhuyue is going to train here to learn how to deal with Luce who blows up the stadium in every game.
Ten days of rest and preparation passed quickly, and the second round of rematches was about to begin. The second round of matches would no longer be held twice a day, split across two venues. The eight matches between the sixteen players would all be held at Stadium One, one per day. Because some players often caused damage to the venue that could not be repaired on the same day, Stadium Two would be used as a backup venue.
The first game of the second round is still Shican's.
His opponent is Huo Anan, who stood out in the same group of preliminaries as Lin Zhuyue and is also his classmate.
Shi Can stood on the field and said to Huo Anan:
"Give up. If you give up, we can both save time."
“What a terrible attitude.”
Huo Anan put her hands on her hips, and you could tell from her expression that she was very, very unhappy. She said,
"I'd rather give it a try. What if I win the Double Color Ball and defeat you, the big devil? That would be a very fulfilling thing."
Shi Can said sarcastically:
"Yes, yes, I have a lifetime of pride."
Huo Anan became even more annoyed.
When the referee announced "match start", she poured out the "Silver Moonlight" stored in the test tube without hesitation. The silvery-white liquid metal circled around her twice under the control of spiritual power, and then all rushed towards Shi Can.
The light of the silver moon is like a wave, one higher than the other.
As they approached Shi Can, they transformed into thin blades, spinning and slashing at Shi Can from all directions. The blades carried a cold light and chill, and leaves that drifted into the arena simply landed on the blades and broke in two.
This is simply a murderous posture.
Shican threw the bamboo sword in his hand out of the field.
Instead, there was a long sword emitting a blue-purple glow. This was Shi Can's spiritual weapon, the Absolute Blade.
The audience cheered——
This is the first time the Great Demon King has used spiritual weapons.
Thousands of blades formed by the light of the silver moon all slashed towards Shi Can.
Shi Can swung his knife——
A "whoosh" sound was heard.
The blade formed by the light of the silver moon shattered, scattered all over the ground, and then melted into a mercury-like liquid again, retreating towards where Huo Anan was.
Shi Can didn't let down his guard just because Silver Moon's Radiance retreated. He sensed movement beneath his feet. The moment the silver metal spike shot out, Shi Can focused his spiritual energy on his feet, blocking it. He even stepped on it and leaped high towards Huo An'an.
Shi Chan was suspended in the air.
Huo Anan instinctively wanted to hide, but she reacted immediately, stopped, and drove the Silver Moon towards Shi Can.
The high, surging waves instantly submerged Shi Can.
Huo Anan clenched his fists.
Silver Moon's Light, hold him tightly, hold him tightly...
If we can control him, we can win the game.
But the next moment, the blue-purple tip of the knife pierced out from the light of the silver moon. Shi Can, like a vicious beast, used the ferocious and sharp weapon in his hand to completely tear apart the light of the silver moon.
The Silver Moon's Light is sharp, but the Absolute Blade is sharper.
The Silver Moon's Light is flexible, but its blade can cut anything, even water.
Huo Anan closed her eyes.
The tip of Jue Ren's knife was now pointing at her throat.
The game is over.
Yao Hanshuang complained, "Isn't this game too fast?"
Gong Yongyuan sighed and said:
"There's nothing we can do. Normally, in a spiritual master competition, everyone takes out their spiritual weapons and displays their strength to the fullest. But Shi Can, that bastard, just as someone else pulled out their spiritual weapon, he took out his absolute blade and chopped it into pieces in two snaps."
"How do we fight this? It's basically a dimensionality reduction attack."
Shi Chan left the field.
Lin Zhuyue handed him the down jacket in her arms.
It was already early December, and the temperature in Tiancheng had plummeted, turning into a cold and wet magical attack mode.
Shican was already wearing a long down jacket.
"Are you really not cold?"
Shi Can took the down jacket, but did not wear it. Instead, he put it on Lin Zhuyue's shoulders and asked,
"Wearing warm autumn clothes and a sweater is enough to keep you warm? Don't catch a cold."
Shi Can's down jacket was custom-made according to his body shape. When it was draped over Lin Zhuyue, the hem reached her heels and the sleeves were so long that Lin Zhuyue couldn't even stretch her hands out.
Lin Zhuyue walked awkwardly.
As she was walking, Shican picked her up.
The audience was very noisy——
"Oh my god, this is so sweet! It's really happening!"
Shi Can carried Lin Zhuyue away, stuffed her into the car, and drove her home.
The terrible weather did not break the defense of Lin Zhuyue, a northerner, but it punished Shi Can who dared to take off his down jacket without even wearing a sweater.
That night, Shi Chan felt dizzy and his cheeks were hot. He touched his forehead with a thermometer and found he had a fever. It wasn't high, but it wasn't low either, at 38.4 degrees Celsius.
Lin Zhuyue lay on the bed, touching Shi Can's slightly hot forehead with concern, and asked:
"Shall I take you to the infirmary?"
Shi Can said: "Just let my dad take me there..."
Lin Zhuyue's eyes were full of pity, and he asked:
"Are you crazy? Uncle and aunt are at Disneyland and aren't home. They won't be back until the day after tomorrow."
Shi Can: “…”
Shi Can had to settle for the next best thing and said:
"Just give me some fever-reducing medicine. Don't go to the clinic, or you'll be up all night. You have a competition tomorrow, so save your energy."
"The more you talk, the more I think you should see a doctor."
Lin Zhuyue grabbed Shi Can's hand and said,
"My competition isn't until the day after tomorrow. Get up! Go to the infirmary!"
Lin Zhuyue dragged Shi Can into Yunze Medical Clinic in a very forceful manner.
The weather has been bad recently, and a lot of people have caught colds and fevers.
The doctor at Yunze Clinic gave Shi Can a fever-reducing injection as usual, and hung up a small bottle of antibiotics before sending Lin Zhuyue and Shi Can back home.
Shican just had a cold, but if he stayed in a clinic with a large group of flu patients, his condition might become more serious.
After returning home, Shican fell asleep quickly.
But he could sense that from time to time, someone would come over to him, touch his forehead, pull the quilt for him, adjust the floor heating, and even chase away the cat that was scratching the door.
In the morning, Shichan opened his eyes.
After treatment and a night's rest, he no longer felt any discomfort.
He turned his head slightly and saw Lin Zhuyue sleeping on the edge of the bed.
Shi Chan carried her to the bed and sat beside her to look at her.
The girl was quiet, only her chest was heaving and her eyelashes were trembling.
Shi Chan watched for a moment, then stood up, bent over, and leaned forward, gently kissing her eyelids, then the tip of her nose, and then her lips. He was afraid of waking her, so he kissed very lightly. But he couldn't stop, unwilling to let go.
Shi Can was a little hungry, but he had no intention of going downstairs to eat. He climbed onto the bed from the other side, lay down on it, turned sideways, and smelled the shampoo scent left on Lin Zhuyue's hair.
It’s incredible…
Ye Yangjia and Wen Miyan always scolded him for being a widow for the rest of his life because of his personality.
At that time, Shi Can thought it was good to be a widower for life, because he had no feelings for either women or men, and he thought he might never like a girl in his life. He was quite proud of this.
A wise man does not fall in love. Falling in love can easily make a person's IQ drop and turn him into a fool.
Who knew I'd actually fall in love...
"I like you."
Shi Can leaned close to Lin Zhuyue's ear and whispered,
"I like you very much."
Lin Zhuyue's voice rang out: "...and then?"
Shi Chan: “…Huh?”
Shi Can moved further away and asked, "Why are you awake?"
"It would be strange if I didn't wake up after being harassed by you."
Lin Zhuyue sat up and looked sideways at Shi Can.
"Looks like you're better now... But you should keep warm and don't go out today. I'll go to the game by myself later."
Shi Can felt a little lost and asked:
"Don't you need a driver? I'm really worried that you'll drive the car into the sea when I'm not around."
"How can my driving skills be that bad?"
