"Why are you still unhappy?" Ye Wanwan wasn’t doing a great job at hiding it, and Shen Yi quickly noticed her gloomy mood.
Ye Wanwan was silent for a few seconds before she murmured to Shen Yi in a coquettish, small voice, "I played for so long yesterday, and I’m still stuck in the newbie training. It’s so annoying!"
"Just because of that?" Shen Yi raised an eyebrow, unconvinced.
Ye Wanwan nodded vigorously, "Didn’t you see someone sending messages to call me a noob? He should look at his own terrible skills before criticizing me!"
"Should I give it a try?" Shen Yi had figured out how the game worked while watching her play; it didn’t seem that difficult.
Ye Wanwan picked up her phone that she had thrown aside, opened the game app, and entered a new match. As they waited to join, she handed the phone to Shen Yi.
Then Ye Wanwan witnessed a miracle. Shen Yi won three matches in a row and was MVP in every single one!
Ye Wanwan was in shock, looking at Shen Yi incredulously, "You haven’t played this game before, have you?"
Shen Yi nodded, "Indeed, I haven’t played it. Just now, I could have scored even more kills if they hadn’t been stolen from me."
Although he won, Shen Yi still couldn’t find the joy in playing the game; he thought playing a couple of rounds of Sudoku would be more interesting.
But Ye Wanwan couldn’t help feeling jealous. They were both beginners; she got scolded in every game while he was the MVP. Why was there such a big difference?
Three o’clock in the afternoon.
Shen Yi drove Ye Wanwan to Hengshan Park. Since it was the weekend, there were a lot of people in the park.
After parking the car, Shen Yi grabbed the picnic mat and food they had prepared at home, leading an inquisitive Ye Wanwan, who was looking around, to a less crowded spot.
As he walked, Shen Yi stopped and turned to look at Ye Wanwan, who was gradually getting disoriented, and called out somewhat helplessly, "Wanwan, this way."
"Oh, okay." Ye Wanwan responded half-heartedly, not giving Shen Yi as much as a glance, continuing to look around.
It had been so long, she couldn’t remember where, in her past life, she had found Taozhi.
She just remembered there was a stall selling fruits and vegetables so that visitors could feed the small animals.
She had already spotted that stall, but the meadow was so vast. Where should she begin looking?
Ye Wanwan tried hard to recall the scene from her past life. Back then, several Sika Deer were idly strolling around the meadow. She hadn’t noticed Taozhi at first until she heard a kitten’s meowing sounding milk-voiced and curious. She took a second glance and that’s when she spotted the little kitten hidden in the meadows.
But now the time and setting were not exactly the same as her previous life. Finding the Sika Deer didn’t guarantee finding Taozhi!
The park was full of parents with their children playing, and the sounds of kids laughing and parents calling for their kids were everywhere.
Shen Yi felt like he was also out with a child when he found Ye Wanwan lagging behind again, he didn’t bother to look for another spot.
He chose a big tree nearby, spread the picnic mat under it, sat down, and watched Ye Wanwan, who kept looking around from a distance.
Shen Yi just watched, curious to see what she was up to.
Even though it was only twenty degrees Celsius, the direct sunlight still made it hot. Worried that she would get uncomfortable from staying in the sun too long, he called out again, "Wanwan."
