Once Jian Yiling finished dinner, she was about to return to her study. At this moment, Yu Xi came over to visit.
“Grandma Jian, I’m looking for Jian Yiling. Is she free tonight? Can I bring her over to play a few games?”
In front of the older generation, Yu Xi was respectful and gentle. He was quite good at gaining their favor.
In addition, he had good grades and went to a good university. He was the child that other parents always compared their own child to.
Grandma Jian had no objection, “Go ask Yiling. If she wants to go with you, I won’t object. However, you must bring her back before eight o’clock.”
Jian Yiling could go over to play, however, she shouldn’t come home late.
As this wasn’t the first time that Yu Xi had asked Jian Yiling to join them for fun and games, Grandma Jian had agreed quite easily. No bad incidents had happened the previous time either.
“No problem,” Yu Xi vouched.
Jian Yiling looked at Yu Xi for a moment. However, she quickly realized that she still owed Zhai Yunsheng a favor. Thus, she agreed to go with Yu Xi.
She followed Yu Xi next door and into the entertainment room.
Yu Xi led her directly into a corner that had a row of computers.
He had indeed brought Jian Yiling over to play games.
However, they were playing together with Zhai Yunsheng.
Zhai Yunsheng was already sitting in front of one of the computers.
When Jian Yiling saw Zhai Yunsheng, the first thing she asked was:
“Have you figured out what you want?”
“Nope.”
Zhai Yunsheng sat on the gaming chair. He held his chin with one hand and smiled at Jian Yiling.
On the side, Yu Xi said, “Yiling, this time I called you over. I want to gain elo1… I begged Master Sheng to carry me. However, he insisted on calling you over to join us before he carried me!”
Sigh… His friend had changed over the years. Why did he want to carry a girl and not him…
Was it that difficult for Master Sheng to help him gain elo…
For him to ask a girl to join them…
To be honest, Yu Xi didn’t approve of calling Jian Yiling over to play with them. This was because the game that they wanted to play was a bit violent. It wasn’t suitable for a girl like Jian Yiling.
However, Master Sheng had insisted on Jian Yiling joining them. As a result, Yu Xi had no other choice.
Yu Xi looked at Jian Yiling with pleading eyes, “Yiling, please help me! Do this for my sake. Think of it as repayment for posting the chat logs between Ji Ming and Qiu Yizhen okay?”
To gain elo, Yu Xi was ready to do anything.
“You posted them?” Jian Yiling asked. She had initially assumed that it was done by the people that she had been contacted by.
“Yep, I posted them. However, Master Sheng dealt with the matter,” Yu Xi replied. He didn’t dare to take Master Sheng’s credit. As such, he could only say that he posted the chat logs.
Once she heard this, Jian Yiling’s gaze fell on Zhai Yunsheng again.
The man never wore his clothes properly. There were always one or two buttons on his shirt that were undone.
He had a slight smile on his face as he gazed back at her.
“Why, why did you help me again?” Jian Yiling asked.
She hadn’t yet repaid him for the last time.
“Who said I wanted to help you?” Zhai Yunsheng replied. He denied that he helped Jian Yiling in the matter. “Yu Xi said that he didn’t want the girl next door to be pestered by trash. That’s why I helped him.”
When Yu Xi heard this, his eyes widened in shock. When had he said that?
However, he had roasted the delinquent. Master Sheng was correct about that part.
Yu Xi thought about it for a moment before saying, “Why don’t we start playing? I promised Grandma Jian to send her back by eight o’clock. Please cherish the time!”
If they started right now, they could fit in a few more games.
This would determine whether or not he gained elo today.
Jian Yiling didn’t reply. Instead, she sat down into an empty seat next to Zhai Yunsheng.
She adjusted the height of the gaming chair before she turned the computer on.
