Chapter 21: Chapter 21: Has He Ever Been Kissed?

“Don’t forget what we’re here to do.”

“Who are we here for? Is there anyone else besides me?”

“Bai Qing, if you could just stop bragging for a moment, you’d save yourself a lot of trouble.”

“Uh… isn’t it just that there’s no opportunity yet? When there is, I promise I’ll do it…”

“Game on!”

“No account, is it okay if I just spectate?”

Ten minutes later, Li Yang logged into the two accounts Bai Qing bought from someone else.

The names were a jumble of random characters, but Bai Qing had the money to change them.

So, they quickly renamed themselves.

The names were chosen by Bai Qing.

His was called “Hoeing Crops Yes.”

Bai Qing’s was “Noon Ahhhh.”

She was still the same as before, and Li Yang almost thought he was hallucinating earlier.

Bai Qing said something quite true; if she didn’t unfriend them, they wouldn’t have taken the money.

Even knowing it’s impossible, they’d still impulsively hope for a chance to curry favor.

It’s like when the goddess you like asks to borrow a hundred bucks. Even if you’re broke, you’d want to find a way to lend it to her.

When she pays you back, no matter how broke, you’d graciously say, “Consider it a treat from me…”

On a sleepless night, hearing that the goddess has a boyfriend, you’d regret not taking back that hundred dollars…

At least Bai Qing gave the two a respectable reason to take the money.

Blocking and deleting was the only way.

“Placement match, hubby, just play whatever you like. Leave the game to me.”

“Then I’ll play Yasuo.”

“Uh… alright…”

During the game, Bai Qing was a bit more serious.

The main reason: Li Yang chose a god-awful hero.

“It’s just the first placement match anyway, super easy… I’ll definitely carry you to victory, hubby…”

Before the game started, Bai Qing vowed confidently.

Twenty minutes later.

Bai Qing looked at the defeat screen, feeling dejected.

“Hubby, why’d you vote to surrender?”

“Huh? I thought it was you who did it…”

“Next round, let’s not surrender, okay? Trust me, we can win.”

“Yeah, I trust you.”

So, they started another match.

Thirty-five minutes later… Bai Qing was entirely drained.

She felt more exhausted than after a night with a man.

Li Yang was just too god-awful!

She was only at a Silver level. Even with a slight advantage in her lane, Li Yang would lose it faster.

“Hubby, can we not play Yasuo anymore?”

“Sure, I can play Teemo.”

“…”

Well, at least he could place mushrooms.

The third match began.

They met a pro playing on a smurf account. Bai Qing herself was overwhelmed, and at 16 minutes, the opponents destroyed the nexus.

Li Yang could only marvel at how long 1557 looks.

Even with five terrible players on their side, they managed to drag it out for more than 16 minutes.

He didn’t want to win; he just wanted to see how long Bai Qing could hold on.

A so-called ’hubby’ was just a term. You only truly benefit if she’s willing to let you take advantage. If you force it, you’re just being a creep.

No matter how diligently she called him, he never surpassed the boundaries of her personal space – akin to being slightly jostled in a crowded subway. Who cares about that?

Enduring a loss tests one’s patience. Bai Qing could act, but her patience only went so far.

In the fourth game, 45 minutes later.

“Hubby, I’m sorry, I made a mistake.”

During the fifth game, at the 26-minute mark.

“Boo-hoo, hubby, trust me.”

In the sixth game, at the 34-minute mark.

“Hubby, are you tired?”

Li Yang smiled lightly, “I’m not tired.”

“Okay, then let’s go another round.”

For Bai Qing, the seventh game was a must-win.

She didn’t care about anything else, just wanted to regain a bit of her mood.

She didn’t want to go back now, and having Li Yang by her side gave her a sense of security.

Once the sun rose, she’d call her close girlfriends to come and stay with her at home.

She didn’t expect a game to exhaust her so much.

She’d never seen someone so terrible like Li Yang before.

Even when they had a great advantage several times, he’d go and feed the enemy team and you couldn’t say anything.

After all, there’s a persona to maintain.

She just wanted to hang in for another couple of hours; once dawn broke, all would be well.

But if she didn’t win this game, she’d feel like she was just going to explode on the spot.

So she put her all into it!

Finally, seventy minutes later.

The defeat screen displayed on the monitor, and Bai Qing was completely exhausted, her emotions on the brink.

For a full seventy minutes, she’d held her ground despite a huge advantage, and it was gone.

Li Yang managed to die fifty times, and each time he’d die consecutively five or six times, then grab a kill and die again.

She abruptly stood up.

Li Yang thought perhaps the drama was about to unfold.

Because even he was feeling reluctant to continue.

He almost blew his top as the actor.

But Bai Qing simply placed her hands on his shoulders, saying, “Hubby, you’ve been sitting for so long, you must have a sore waist and back. Let me massage it for you…”

At this moment Li Yang had his back to her and couldn’t see her expression; in fact, she was already grinding her teeth.

Li Yang said nonchalantly, “I played games with you, although my skills are lacking, you can’t go back on what you promised.”

Bai Qing giggled, saying, “Why would I? Having hubby play games with me for so long and not being able to secure a win, I don’t know how guilty I feel. As long as your friend gets into Qingbei, I assure that the bonus from Green Water Group will be distributed immediately.”

After she finished, she added, “Hubby, feeling good…”

Li Yang didn’t respond because he was asleep.

After a night of hustling, his WeChat steps had exceeded thirty thousand steps, and he also played games for nearly five hours.

Being an actor was truly exhausting, fearing inadvertently winning.

Now with his head resting on a 32D, even the best latex pillow couldn’t compare to this comfort. Combined with Bai Qing’s decent massage skills, it felt like a remedy on a tired body. In almost no time, fatigue washed over him, and his brain didn’t want to think anymore.

“Hubby…”

“Huh…”

Bai Qing watched Li Yang breathe steadily and sighed.

She wasn’t really tired, after all, her schedule was basically on U.S. time.

She took out her phone, sent a few messages, then returned to her seat to play two games herself.

Easily won both matches.

After consecutively winning two games, she looked again at Li Yang next to her.

This guy was really handsome, but his gameplay was a mess.

If Li Yang played well, he’d really grow in her heart.

It was already daylight outside, and as Bai Qing stood to leave, she felt a tiny bit reluctant.

“Forget it, no point in leaving my WeChat.”

She leaned down and pecked Li Yang on the cheek.

“Giggle, thank you, mister!”

With that said, she left the internet café.

Feng Ping and the other three had just wrapped up their overnight outing at the internet café and hadn’t noticed the situation over by the booth.

But Bai Qing’s figure caught their attention.

The light blue camisole looked mature and sexy. Her skin was fair, her figure full, and that smile carried a certain allure.

The feeling they had was familiar.

It was called craving.

“Isn’t that Li Yang?”

“Hmm? Damn!”

“No wonder he hasn’t been chasing after Wang Manqi lately.”

“If it were me, I’d choose that lady just now. Wang Manqi’s at best like an iPhone 5, 32GB, while that lady’s at least an iPhone 5s, 256GB.”

“Suddenly I don’t feel like eating anymore.”

“I gotta eat something; my stomach feels acidic.”

Ten minutes later, at the breakfast stand, the four of them took a bite and then looked up at each other in silent understanding.

“Honestly, Li Yang’s a real scumbag!”

An hour later, they were back at the dormitory.

Having stayed up all night, they should’ve caught some sleep.

But tossing and turning, they just couldn’t sleep.

With closed eyes, they saw Bai Qing’s alluring silhouette; open them, and Li Yang’s bed started looking displeasing.

“Hey, could it be that woman is Li Yang’s sister? We’re all brothers, maybe he could introduce her to us?”

“Have you ever seen a sister kiss a brother?”

“Which sister wouldn’t kiss her brother… wait, do you guys think Li Yang has been kissed?”

“…???

“Damn, you want a taste of what it was like?”
