Chapter 400: Feeling Refreshed and Energetic
Qin Xiang’s explosive reveal about having a boyfriend was… unexpected.
She didn’t suspect that Qin Xiang did it on purpose; possibly, she was too emotional at the time, and blurted it out in a rush to refute Rong Weiwei.
But fortunately, Qin Xiang only mentioned having a boyfriend without revealing anything about Duidui.
Rong Yan breathed a sigh of relief, relieved that Duidui’s exposure had been averted, and the tension she carried for days finally eased.
Thankfully, things turned out better than she had anticipated.
Her phone chimed twice right then.
She picked up her phone to check.
It was a message from Nick.
Just like him, the message was aloof, just one sentence, “You’ve impressed me once again.”
So, he looked down on her from the start?
Messages from Estelle followed, instructing her to prepare well for the new song performance at the gala the day after tomorrow.
There were also messages from Gu Linxi, Little Baby, Cui Jiangjing, and even Lin Xinbei, who had been away for a long time, sent her a message.
“Not bad, Little Demon Rong.”
This whimsical style was exactly like that of her boyfriend.
Rong Yan replied to only a few people and ignored the rest. She opened the live-streaming platform provided by AQ from the last show and logged into her gaming account.
She rubbed her fingers, loosening them up.
Oh, it’s been a long time since she played games.
She had been itching to play, and with her spirits high, it was the perfect opportunity for a game.
She had thought the live-streaming room would be empty, but upon entering, there were still a few people inside. She aimed the camera at the floor and logged into the game.
Perhaps it was her good mood, her luck in the game was also exceptionally good. After parachuting down from the plane, she swiftly collected gear, found a vehicle, and drove to the bridge. She secured an excellent vantage point and began her bridge-camping strategy.
With the crossbow, it was one bolt, one kill!
When outnumbered, she used a combination of crossbow and stealth bombs; when few, Rong Yan switched to a sniper rifle and took them out one by one, each shot a headshot.
In the end, the game concluded amidst her overpowering skills on display.
Rong Yan watched her character lift the winner’s trophy, still feeling the urge to play another round.
Just then, her door opened.
A tall and handsome figure walked in, carrying a cup of honey water, his voice deep as he said, “You ate too much tonight, I was worried you wouldn’t sleep well, so I made you a cup of honey water.”
“Uh,” Rong Yan, seeing him enter, awkwardly glanced at the cup of honey water next to her and stammered, “That… I also made one after taking a bath.”
Li Shengxiao noticed the glass on the table and, with poise, put down his own cup and picked up the one made by Rong Yan, saying, “Perfect, let’s swap!”
Rong Yan watched dumbfounded as he took her half-drunk honey water, saying, “I have some work to deal with tonight, you don’t have to wait for me, go to bed early.”
Although he longed to keep her within his sight, he indeed had an important matter to attend to remotely that night and didn’t know how late it would keep him.
“Do you want me to make you a cup of coffee?” Upon hearing that he would be working late, Rong Yan finally remembered her duty as a girlfriend.
“No need,” Li Shengxiao lifted the glass in his hand, his mood seeming pleasant as he curved his lips, “This is enough for me!”
