C21 (1/2)
Ah Tai's rhetorical question completely shocked Yang Yingsen. He did not expect that the big miss of the Avalanche Company, who he had always been carrying such enmity towards, would actually be his tablemate. Yang Yingsen felt mixed emotions in his heart. This thunderbolt news was like a bolt of lightning that broke all of his fantasies towards Li Xueyang.
Thinking about that, Yang Yingsen could no longer stay. He wanted to grab hold of this clue, he wanted to question Li Xueyang why his parents would die in their company for no reason. He wanted to know the whole story!
Yang Yingsen rushed to the stairs like a madman, leaving behind the shocked and confused Ah Tai.
Closer. Closer! The slightly opened back door of the classroom opened slowly following Yang Yingsen's hurried footsteps, revealing the back of a short-haired girl. Yang Yingsen knew, she was Li Xueyang!
”Li Xueyang! I have something to ask you! ”
Yang Yingsen did not hesitate to pat her shoulder.
Li Xueyang calmly turned her head, her eyes shooting out cold gazes. Towards Yang Yingsen's sudden visit, she did not display any surprise, fear or excitement, as if Li Xueyang was a robot that cut off all emotions.
”Excuse me, is there something you need?”
Li Xueyang put down the book in his hands and politely replied Yang Yingsen's impolite actions.
It was only now that Yang Yingsen noticed his recklessness. He calmed his emotions and said to Li Xueyang calmly.
”Come to the roof, I have something very important to ask you.”
Yang Yingsen had already gathered many ”spectators” around him, and they were all looking forward to see what kind of show this constant interlude would bring them again.
Even though she did not hear what Yang Yingsen said to Li Xueyang, she had a kind of inexplicable feeling of loss in her heart. She did not understand why people who were easily ignored would often be the closest to him …
”You said that your parents were the developers of 'The World'?”
Li Xueyang opened his eyes wide and stared at Yang Yingsen in disbelief.
He slightly frowned, with a serious expression on his face. Yang Yingsen did not seem to be joking, his mouth slightly opened, and continuously gulped, as if a stomach of words was stuck in Yang Yingsen's throat.
”Oh my god, that's amazing, Yang Yingsen, you are really concealing your strength!”
Ah Tai asked in shock at almost the same time.
”I received an email from your company saying... My mother, she... ”He died …”
The choked Yang Yingsen really couldn't face his mother's mysterious death. Her sad mood filled his heart and he blamed all of his mistakes on Avalon of Five Elements.
”Yang Yingsen, don't worry, I'll go back and ask my father.”
Li Xueyang consoled Yang Yingsen, who was about to shed tears. The heart of the expressionless her had already rippled a long time ago. This delicate and weak youth in front of her had really piqued her interest.
”You play …” ”The World?”
Li Xueyang asked tentatively.
”Play!” We are all playing. Our team is still short of a ”Silver”! ”Hehe, Miss Li, look, are you …”
Without waiting for Yang Yingsen's answer, Ah Tai hurriedly answered.
”Tonight, at the Heroic Hotel.”
Li Xueyang lightly said a few words, then silently walked away.
Yang Yingsen looked at Li Xueyang who was far away, and his anxious face finally relaxed a little. Looking at Ah Tai who was laughing foolishly at the side and fantasizing on the side, he felt an inexplicable sense of fullness in his heart.
”Ah Tai.”
”Hmm?”
”Thank you!”
”Thank me for what?” I didn't do anything. Besides, friends should help each other. There's nothing to thank. ”
Hearing Ah Tai's straightforward reply, Yang Yingsen's heart warmed.
Think: Friends... Yes.
”You don't know, but that bad guy was bounced off all of a sudden!”
On the way back from school, Yang Yingsen gestured at his adventures in the game.
”Yang Yingsen, your mood is good.”
