“He’s quite close with these two girls. He interacts more with Girl A in his life, and the two of them have gone through a lot of things together. How should I put it… I guess they’re more intimate than friends, but not at the point where they can be considered as lovers yet…”
At this point, Shi Yao suddenly interjected, “In other words, your friend is romantically involved with Girl A, right?”
Did she just say that we’re romantically involved with each other?
Lin Jiage suddenly found the words ‘romantically involved’ extremely pleasing to the ear, such that even his lips couldn’t help inching up a little. “Un, they’re romantically involved with each other…”
“Whenever my friend knows that Girl A is unhappy, he always tries his best to cheer her up. When my friend learned that it was Girl A’s birthday, he kept thinking of ways to celebrate her birthday with her. When my friend heard that someone had bullied Girl A, he stood up to protect her. When my friend found out what Girl A liked, he made sure to remember everything she said. In other words, my friend…”
Coming to this point, Lin Jiage suddenly had no idea how to continue.
On the other hand, it was Shi Yao who picked up his words, “That friend of yours seems to like Girl A quite a lot.”
Lin Jiage’s fingertips trembled slightly. “You also think that he likes her?”
What do you mean by I also think that he likes her? It’s so obvious, isn’t it?
Shi Yao blinked her eyes in confusion as she asked, “Isn’t that the case? Well, I can’t really say how much your friend loves Girl A from what you’ve said, but without a doubt, he’s definitely interested in her…”
Since even Soft Bun said so, that should mean that… I really like her?
So, this is how it feels to like another person…
Immersed in his thoughts, Lin Jiage was silent for quite some time.
Shi Yao waited for a while but Lin Jiage didn’t say anything, so she couldn’t help prodding him, “Is that all?”
Lin Jiage quickly shook out of his daze and continued, “I told you that my friend got to know two girls, right? He met Girl B by coincidence; they got to know each other online. They haven’t met in real life before, but they already know everything there is to know about each other in real life.”
“Because he isn’t acquainted with Girl B in real life, my friend doens’t think that he’s as close with Girl B as he is with Girl A. Then again, their relationship online is pretty good. When Girl B is unhappy, he always tries to cheer her up. When Girl B wants to play, he’ll try his best to accompany her. When other players killed Girl B, he would try his best to avenge her…”
Hm? This sound surprisingly similar to my relationship with Mister Numbers…
This was the thought that surfaced in Shi Yao’s mind, but she didn’t interrupt Lin Jiage’s words.
Lin Jiage: “How should I phrase this? In any case, the relationship between my friend and Girl B isn’t that simple either. So, another roommate of mine told him that he’s two-timing; flirting with Girl B even though he already has Girl A…”
Shi Yao blinked, and an excited gleam twinkled in her eyes, “So, that friend you’ve been talking about is a roommate of yours?”
Darn it… I gave myself away without realizing it…
Lin Jiage nodded calmly without the slightest change in his expression.
Shi Yao: “Which roommate is it? Is it the flamboyant yellow strawberry guy, or is it the deep blue pineapple guy?”
Flamboyant yellow strawberry guy? Deep blue pineapple guy?
What the heck were those?
Lin Jiage was confused by Shi Yao’s nicknames.
Noticing Lin Jiage’s bewildered expression, Shi Yao suddenly realized that she’d accidentally used the nicknames that she’d come up with, so she hurriedly clarified, “Ah, I was referring to the sportswear they were wearing the first time we had a P.E. class together. One was dressed in flamboyant-yellow sportswear and the other was dressed in deep-blue sportswear. Later that night, when I was blocked by Qin Yiran and her gang, they happened to walk by. One of them was holding a pineapple milkshake and the other was holding a strawberry milkshake, so…”
