Due to the new messages in the [Sexy and Frisky] group, it was bumped up to the very top. So, out of sheer convenience, Shi Yao tapped into it.
After she sent the message and picked up her phone, <Juice> swiftly popped up:[This is bad. Sis Yao is really angry this time!]
<Expert of the Monkeys>: [I’m very angry too. The kind of angry that none of you will be able to coax!]
<Juice>: [You speak as if we’re interested in coaxing you.]
<Expert of the Monkeys>: [You speak as if I’m interested in having you coax me!]
…
Shi Yao roughly swept across the chatlog between Expert and Juice, and she couldn’t help shaking her head helplessly.
Weren’t they talking about how she was angry? Why did they suddenly start arguing about who was interested in coaxing who?
Were these two… always this unfocused?
Shi Yao continued scrolling down the long, long chatlog, and after what was long enough for her to exclaim, “Finally!”, Juice and Expert finally returned to the topic at hand.
<Expert of the Monkey>@<Yao Loves Ice Cream>: [Sis Yao, are you really angry? You know that our Boss is always like that. He really doesn’t mean anything by it. Why don’t I apologize to you on his behalf then?]
<Juice>: [Sis Yao, I’ll share my greatest treasure with you right now.]
Right beneath his message was a photo. It was a printed book, and the name of the book was “A Billion Stars Can’t Amount To You”.
<Juice>: [It’s incredibly interesting. Sis Yao, I guarantee that you’ll forget all about your unhappiness when you open the book because the plot will leave you tormented till you’re constantly on the brink of tears…]
Perhaps it was due to her long period of silence, but everyone really thought that she was angry, and in the end, Juice and Expert even started criticizing Mister Numbers,
And what was shocking was that Mister Numbers didn’t even react to their remarks.
After sweeping through the messages in the [Sexy and Frisky] WeChat group, Shi Yao didn’t rush to respond. Instead, she went back to the main page and noted that [111111] had privately sent her some messages.
So, she tapped into the chat.
<111111>: [?]
<111111>: [??]
<111111>: [???]
<111111>: [Are you really angry?]
The emoji that Shi Yao sent to the group before she disappeared contained a huge assortment of biscuits. When Mister Numbers realized that she wasn’t responding after sending her several consecutive messages, he sent the very same emoji back to her, but with an alteration. On top of the original ‘ What biscuit do you think you are?’ , there was an additional red circle around the largest biscuit in the pile, captioned ‘I am this biscuit’ .
Actually, Shi Yao wasn’t really mad. It was just that her mom had coincidentally called her at that moment.
Upon seeing Mister Numbers’ response, she couldn’t hold back her amusement and a chuckle escaped her lips. She then replied to Mister Numbers: <The hand in the photo is really mine.>
<111111>: [Yes yes yes. If you say so.]
What did you mean if I say so? That hand is really mine!
Shi Yao was just about to emphasize that it was hers when another message appeared on her screen.
<111111>: [It’s a beautiful hand.]
By all accounts, Mister Numbers’ venomous tongue was completely untreatable, and yet… To think that he’d actually be capable of speaking human speech!
As this thought flickered across Shi Yao’s mind, yet another message appeared on the screen.
<111111>: [I guess it’s ‘looks over functionality’. I must say it’s truly a pity that a hand like this can perform so atrociously in the game.]
Ouch, my face… Shi Yao fondled her cheeks for a while before typing out a message on the screen: <I’m starting to pity you now.>
<111111>: [?]
<Yao Loves Ice Cream>: [While other people are destined to be single for life, you’re actually charging toward singlehood based on sheer capability. And it’s like you’re riding on a wild horse; galloping furiously ahead into the distance, unable to turn back no matter how hard you pull on the reins!]
