Chapter 23 – Picking up a dog from leftovers
There really was no helping it. He was going to sleep the previous night, but the animals in his room had dragged him off to a network café near school to play an entire night of games.
To be honest, he was rather energetic while he was playing, but the sleepiness instantly came when he arrived at school.
This was a sleep that lasted for the entire morning.
“Ye Zichen.”
Just as Ye Zichen was sleeping soundly, he felt someone carefully nudge his arm.
Ye Zichen blurrily opened his eyes, and saw a girl that could barely get an eighty standing quietly beside him.
“You’re looking for me?”
Ye Zichen didn’t think that he knew this girl, but the girl nodded with certainty.
“Yes.”
“What for?”
“I...” A faint blush appeared on the girl’s face. “Can I have lunch with you?”
A girl was asking him out!
Ye Zichen was very confused!
This sort of situation has never appeared before. All of a sudden, Ye Zichen was actually unsure of how to reply.
“No, Riche Bro has a date at noon.”
The weird Xia Keke popped out from somewhere and immediately hugged Ye Zichen’s arm, then blinked towards the girl with a smile.
“Then at night...”
“Night time is no good either, Riche Bro has a date at night.”
The girl bit her lips and stared at Xia Keke before running away from the classroom. Meanwhile, Ye Zichen looked at the arm that Xia Keke had been hugging awkwardly.
Don’t think that Xia Keke was just a loli due to her face, she developed very well in the areas that should be developed.
She wore rather little during the summer, so Ye Zichen was able to clearly see the outline of Xia Keke’s chest.
“Riche Bro, you’re really popular recently,” Xia Keke acted like there was no one else as she chatted while hugging his arm.
“Shouldn’t you let go?”
Ye Zichen glared at her. A hint of craftiness flashed across Xia Keke’s eye, then she rubbed really hard before letting go.
This damn girlie.
Ye Zichen swore silently in her heart, he shamelessly had a reaction due to her action just now.
“Riche Bro, it’s no good as a man if you don’t have self-control.”
Ye Zichen’s expression darkened upon hearing that. If it wasn’t because you teased me, would I have reacted like that?
Ye Zichen rolled his eyes at Xia Keke and said unhappily.
“What did find me for?”
“Hehe, Riche Bro is so petty, I’m just kidding!” Xia Keke smiled, then crossed her arms and said, while dipping her head, “I want to treat Riche Bro to lunch, I wonder if Riche Bro will give me the honor...”
“Say the truth...”
Ye Zichen couldn’t roll his eyes anymore. When Xia Keke noticed that she couldn’t trick him, she could only twitch her mouth with boredom.
“An old uncle wants to pay to date me. I told that guy that I have a boyfriend, but he didn’t believe it. So, help me pretend.”
“Pay to date you? How much?”
“Riche Bro, that isn’t the point, okay?”
Xia Keke revealed an expression of helplessness, causing Ye Zichen to quickly apologize.
“Sorry, sorry. But, just how much did the old uncle want to pay? I’m just curious about how much you’re worth!”
“How much would you pay if it was you?” Xia Keke revealed a cute expression once again, causing Ye Zichen to shutter. At the same time, he rasied two fingers.
“Two hundred thousand?”
Ugh.
Ye Zichen nearly spit.
“Twenty, no more than that.”
“Go and die.”
Since Ye Zichen was unable to put up with this girl’s begging, Ye Zichen ended up going with her to a coffee shop.
“How much longer is he going to take?”
Ye Zichen asked as he looked at the WeChat group.
The WeChat group seemed to fallen into a quiet phase. The time of the last message sent was 10 in the morning.
Ye Zichen scrolled up, and saw that three deities had sent red packets.
Ye Zichen habitually clicked all of the red packets. Although he knew that there definitely wasn’t any left at the moment, he was still willing to do it.
He might get some leftovers!
Speaking of which, Ye Zichen really did get one.
You received Howling Celestial Dog’s red packet.
When Ye Zichen saw that he could still get a red packet, his heart beat wildly, but when he saw that it was from the Howling Celestial Dog...
No wonder no one wanted it, a dog sent it.
Eliminated Dog from the Celestial Dog Show x1
F*ck, eliminated!
Ye Zichen’s was face nearly covered in distaste.
“Should be quick. He said he was on his way when I called him just now.”
Xiao Keke was clearly not interested in that uncle. She held her head with her hands and blinked, while starting straight at Ye Zichen.
Ye Zichen, who was just about to check his friend’s statuses, felt the gaze from opposite him. He subconsciously gulped, then put his phone away and backed away a bit.
“What! What’s with your gaze?”
“I’m just curious, why would Susu like someone like you? You aren’t really handsome, and don’t seem to be really rich. You seem to be trash at academics as well, why is it that I can’t see your good points?”
Xia Keke tiled her head and looked at Ye Zichen curiously.
Ye Zichen knew that Xia Keke couldn’t say anything good, so he just ignored the second half of what Xia Keke said.
“You said Su Yan likes me? She told you?”
“Don’t think too much, I’m just speculating,” Xia Keke rolled her eyes at Ye Zichen. “I just noticed that Susu has never went out with any guy, then you suddenly popped up, so I got curious.”
“Tsk!”
Ye Zichen looked at her with an expression of despise.
“Oh yeah, why didn’t you just find a boyfriend? What’s me pretending supposed to be?”
“If I find a boyfriend, then I have to find one who’s better than me at League.”
“Isn’t that simple?”
Ye Zichen shrugged, most of the girls playing League were in Silver or Gold, it’s really hard to find one in Platinum or Diamond.
There were so many talented people in Polytechnic University, it was all too simple to find one who was Diamond or above.
“Easy? This girl is Master on Ionia, okay?” Xia Keke raised her delicate chin and said coquettishly. “There hasn’t been any that could pique this lady’s interest in Polytechnic University.”
Ye Zichen instantly spaced out.
He looked at Xia Keke like he was looking at a monster.
Master.
And it was such a pretty girl.
“What rank are you?” Seeing Ye Zichen’s shocked expression, Xia Keke felt an indescribable pride.
“Gold,” Ye Zichen answered honestly.
“Noob. When this lady is in a good mood, I’ll help you climb. Boy, you can only get girls if your rank is high!” Xia Keke patted Ye Zichen’s shoulders a few times like an older brother, causing him to be unable help but smile wryly.
“Then carry me tonight!”
“No, I’m not in the mood recently. I got wrecked yesterday, so I have to relax.”
The moment Xia Keke mentioned that, she revealed an expression of depression. Ye Zichen couldn’t help but snicker when he saw that.
Girls were moody, the people they meet in Master were definitely people around the same skill level, isn’t it normal to get wrecked?
Just as he wanted to say a few words to comfort her, Ye Zichen saw the corner of Xia Keke’s lips raise.
“Riche Bro, he’s here. Don’t give it away later, ‘kay?”
