Chapter 24

The milk tea shop in summer is an excellent place for college students to escape from the summer heat. Order a cup of milk tea in their spare time, spend a few hours in the shop to kill time, and an afternoon passes in the blink of an eye.

The clerks are busy making milk tea for customers. Groups of students play board games at a table, and there are also couples talking in private. The whole painting style is quite harmonious.

Except for Ji Huai, there were three people at the table.

It was more than 10 minutes since Ning Xuzhi called the two of them out, and the floating milk cap on the surface of the milk tea gradually sank, and the few people remained motionless.

Finally, Ji Huai couldn't hold back anymore, he put his arms around his chest and leaned back slightly, kicking the corner of the table.The milk tea on the table shook, and a few drops of milk splashed out.

"If you have something to say, it's okay to dismiss, don't play dumb here, I don't have time to spend time with you." After finishing speaking, he cast a suggestive look at You Zhengzheng.

You Zhengzheng closed his eyes, gritted his teeth and said, "Ning Xuzhi, I'm sorry, we didn't mean to lie to you because you are interested in PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, so I approached you under the guise of Ji Huai, but actually I just want to learn how to play basketball with you." !"

Ji Huai: "..."

"Is that so?" Ning Xuzhi shifted his gaze from You Zhengzheng to Ji Huai's face suspiciously, trying to find something suspicious.

"No..." Just as Ji Huai was about to deny it, the back of his foot was suddenly stepped on and crushed hard. The pain in his mouth made him change his tune, "Hiss—no, yes, he wants to strengthen his body."

"Then there's no need to hide your identity." Ning Xuzhi picked up the fruit tea slowly, stirred the almost melted ice cubes and took a sip.

Ji Huai was very speechless. You Zhengzheng made up a random reason and played people like a fool. If Ning Xuzhi believed it, there would be ghosts, so it was better to be frank and lenient.

As the top warrior, You Zhengzheng naturally had to jump into the pit he dug without hesitation: "I think, contacting the field you like can express my sincerity. I am still playing this game now, but the technology is too high." Cai dare not look for you."

Hearing this, Ning Xuzhi smiled for the first time since they met, as light as the cold fruit tea with small bubbles in his hand.

"It's okay, I can teach you how to play basketball." After a pause for a few seconds, he said again: "I can also play games with you."

"No, no." You Zhengzheng shook his head like a rattle, and refused without thinking, "Suddenly I'm not that interested in playing basketball."

He took out his mobile phone and glanced at it, patted his forehead and exclaimed: "Oh, I have to go to the club activity room to borrow something, so let's go first, let's chat!"

After speaking, he rubbed oil on the soles of his feet, grabbed the milk tea and ran away without looking back, leaving only Ji Huai and Ning Xuzhi sitting there staring at each other.

Silence is Cambridge tonight.

"Um... that's it for today?" Ji Huai moved his buttocks, also feeling divorced.

You Zhengzheng's reaction was obviously that he was determined not to let Ning Xuzhi know what he was thinking. If Ji Huai continued to communicate, it would be impossible to guarantee that he would not leak his words, and besides, he and Ning Xuzhi had nothing to say.

"It's fine for him to hide from me, you don't have to hide from me, right?" Ning Xuzhi sensed Ji Huai's intentions, raised his eyelids and stared at him, "We are also teammates who have played games together, or are you trying to avoid suspicion?"

"Avoid suspicion? Avoid suspicion?" Ji Huai suddenly felt that his throat was a little dry, and took a few mouthfuls of milk tea, the rich liquid flowed into his throat, bringing a hint of sweetness.

"Afraid that Snow will misunderstand?"

"Ahem..." Ji Huai was choked, he beat his chest and coughed violently, "What the hell?"

"It's nothing." Ning Xuzhi changed the subject, propped his chin on the back of his hand, and said vaguely: "I should be considered an old fan of Snow. He rarely has such close contact with the other party when he collects live broadcast materials. You are the first one."

Ji Huai took out a tissue to wipe off the milk tea stains around his mouth, and sat up straight with interest: "So?"

"So, you're not curious about his affairs?"

Ji Huai twitched the corner of his mouth, unmoved: "I remember you told me a little bit."

Ning Xuzhi showed helplessness, so he had to change the angle: "Didn't you find that he knows all your friends? In other words, he is integrating into your circle."

"Isn't that great? You don't have any more of him." Ji Huai waved his hand indifferently, "Okay, I know that as a fan, you want to give passers-by the best brother in the world, and You Zhengzheng often gives me alms too. Favorite idol, just tell me and I will listen to you.”

Ning Xuzhi, who was well-intentioned but misunderstood, was silent for nearly a minute before he struggled to recount Ruan Yuchen's debut experience.

Ruan Yuchen was 22 years old when he entered the live broadcast industry, and Ning Xuzhi was one of his earliest fans.

The anchor career in the initial stage is the most difficult period. The exposure rate is not enough, the number of fans is not enough, and you may be talking to yourself all day long.Many people would give up because they couldn't bear it, but Ruan Yuchen persisted.

On weekdays, when someone clicks into the live broadcast room, he will politely say welcome, and no one will concentrate on playing the game.Ruan Yuchen's technique can't be said to be very good, but it reveals an indescribable sense of weirdness. The marksmanship is excellent but the positioning is like a newcomer, which is extremely disharmonious.

Ning Xuzhi is a person who doesn't like to talk very much, and he never bubbles up in the live broadcast room. He occasionally sends some small gifts to Ruan Yuchen to increase his traffic.

Ruan Yuchen has been broadcasting in this way for several years. The anchors who are at the same time as him either rely on routines or jokes, and basically have a lot of progress. Only he is consistent.

Muddy as always.

It seems that he really likes e-sports, and he always has a high spirit in his heart, and he doesn't want to follow the trend.

Until two years ago, I don’t know what stimulated me, and I suddenly talked like other anchors, flirting with passers-by, and the popularity of the live broadcast room went up.

Just in the same year that he broke the world record with a kill and reached the top of the official four-row competition, Ruan Yuchen became famous, and he still maintains the habit of molesting passers-by until now.

"Many of the later fans didn't know that Snow's temperament had changed drastically. They thought he had always been like this. A few old fans knew and didn't gossip. After all, they are all hardcore fans."

The customers in the store changed wave after wave, and white cold air rumbled out from the air outlet of the air conditioner.Ji Huai pushed the cup of milk tea that had bottomed out to one side, and after a long silence, he said slowly, "Do you want me to try to find out the reason for his drastic change in temperament?"

"Well, Snow doesn't have many friends. Since he treats you differently, he should treat you as a friend."

Hearing what Ning Xuzhi said, Ji Huai also became curious about Ruan Yuchen.

Afternoon tea time was over, Ji Huai and Ning Xuzhi bid farewell to the dormitory, lay down on the bed and dialed Ruan Yuchen's phone number.

His tone was a little tired, with the laziness and hoarseness of just waking up: "Hello?"

"You didn't sleep all day, did you?" Hearing his slurred voice, Ji Huai's finished manuscript became difficult to speak.

"Last night I had insomnia, and the all-night live broadcast took too long." Ruan Yuchen covered her mouth and yawned, turned over and got up, went to the bathroom to brush her teeth and wash her face.The mobile phone is placed on the sink, and the hands-free is turned on.

"It's nothing serious, just a daily greeting."

Hearing Ji Huai's voice, the haze on Ruan Yuchen's face dissipated a lot.He forgot to turn off the computer before going to bed. At this time, the screen glowed faintly and stayed on the mailbox interface.

[Sorry for contacting you so late. Regarding the extra rewards of the finals on May 5, the GW team meeting will be held at 20:[-] am this Saturday at the lobby on the first floor of the club. I look forward to your arrival. ]

The rewards for the champions of the four volleyball competitions have already been distributed, but there has been no movement at the meeting.Although I know the time to determine the team players, it has been more than four months, and if it drags on, it can even be distributed together with the rewards for the double volleyball match.

Ruan Yuchen had long forgotten that there was still this problem, and he had a sleepless night when he received this email last night.

After he hung up Ji Huai's phone call, he suddenly had a plan, and his slender fingers crackled on the keyboard to type and reply.

[I am not free that day, can the quota be transferred to a friend? ]

[OK. ]
