Chapter 102: The Wish of a Lifetime (1/2)

[Chu Ge]: Ah, but he’s not online right now, and I’m busy in the afternoon.

[Chu Ge]: dismayed.jpg.

[Fishy]: You don’t have to be in such a hurry. It wouldn’t make any difference if you were to challenge him two days from now.

[Chu Ge]: You don’t understand. Don’t say two days, even two hours would be enough for that Yan Jin fellow to transform from trash to a genius.

[Fishy]: Don’t exaggerate, he’s really terrible.

[Chu Ge]: I’ve known him for over ten years, and I understand him too well. If I don’t defeat him while he is still new to the game, I will definitely not have a chance afterward.

Originally, Xiao Yu wanted to say that Yan Jin had already started playing yesterday night, but he was afraid of destroying Chu Ge’s confidence, so he stopped himself from saying anything.

[Chu Ge]: Master Fishy, my hamster master, this is my wish of a lifetime! Make him log on and fight me! If I could kill him just this once, I won’t have any no more regrets!

[Fishy]: But he truly is very bad…

Chu Ge has sent you a red envelope¹.

[Fishy]: Leave it to me.

……

After lunch, Xiao Yu immediately suggested that they log on. Yan Jin was visibly very dissatisfied with this suggestion.

Although he enjoyed sharing in another aspect of his pet’s life, this game inevitably occupied too much of Xiao Yu’s attention.

Chairman Yan, who was even jealous of a game, regretted agreeing to play with Xiao Yu while he tried to change the subject: “Don’t you want to play at the Crystal Palace?”

“Squeak.” What Crystal Palace?

Xiao Yu assumed that Yan Jin was talking about in-game content and did not make the connection.

By the time he realized his mistake, it was too late.

Chairman Yan narrowed his eyes dangerously. Then, he picked up his phone from the table and went into the kitchen, pulling the glass door shut with a swish behind him.

Bringing up his contact list, he dialed a number.

Xiao Yu immediately rushed over to the kitchen, trying to make up for his lapse, but he did not make it in time.

Xiao Yu and Yan Jin’s gazes met across the glass door.

“Squeakk.”

Xiao Yu pulled at the glass door. Looking at Yan Jin pitifully, his eyes were earnestly big as he blinked them sincerely.

The usually pitiless Yan Jin… lowered his phone and took a picture.

Xiao Yu pressed on his attack while he had the advantage. Going with the flow, he laid on his back, exposing his white little belly.

“Hey? What do you want? Hey?” Chu Ge’s voice could be heard from the phone.

Yan Jin casually hung up, then pulled open the glass door and scooped Xiao Yu up.

He rested a finger on top of Xiao Yu’s belly. Xiao Yu wanted to hold onto Yan Jin’s finger and act cute, but it was a pity that his waist was too fat and he muster up enough strength. His limbs were too short to reach, and after two futile attempts, he ended up panting for breath as he laid at the center of Yan Jin’s palm, playing dead.

“Explain it to me clearly.” Yan Jin suppressed the fervor in his heart and spoke coldly.

“Squeakkk.” T-that is, at the time Chu Ge looked like he was very busy, so I told him he could go. After all, I could play with the miniature artifact at any time.

After debating for a while, Xiao Yu chose to sell out his friend. Although he did feel like he was letting Chu Ge down, he truly wasn’t able to come up with a better excuse when he was exposed so suddenly.

“If he was busy, then why did he agree when I asked him to take care of you?” Yan Jin called Xiao Yu’s words into question: “Not to mention, he is the Yan family’s private doctor. Even though he is registered as a doctor in the hospital, he should not have encountered a situation where he was unable to get away.”

Most people had trouble lying to Yan Jin’s face. Chairman Yan seemed to have some sort of special power to see through lies, not allowing any room for pretense to hide.

But Xiao Yu was an exception to that rule. It was unknown why Yan Jin was not only very tolerant of him, but when it was necessary, Yan Jin would even take the initiative to help tighten up the holes in Xiao Yu’s story.

Xiao Yu truly had his methods of dealing with Yan Jin. He could even meet the all-seeing gaze of Chairman Yan for an extended period of time and calmly come up with an appropriate response.

The core of it was slander, and his method was to blather and let Yan Jin’s own brain fill in the details.

“Squeak.” It seemed like he had a friend that was not doing so well in the intensive care unit, I don’t really remember.

Even before he finished speaking, Xiao Yu started to roll around in Yan Jin’s hand.

Roll, roll, roll.

The moment Xiao Yu was about to roll out of his hand, Yan Jin used his other hand to block him.

“Squeak.” Xiao Yu happily climbed onto Yan Jin’s other hand before he obediently stood still with both hands clasped together and continuously bowed.

His obvious act of begging for mercy made Yan Jin happy. Unable to maintain his stern expression, Yan Jin could only forgive this adorable little hamster once again.

When Xiao Yu saw Yan Jin smile, he let out a sigh of relief in his heart, then complacently let out a squeak.

“Squeak.” Do you want to play a game?

“You only know how to play games. Why didn’t you tell me you did not receive your present on your birthday?” Yan Jin intended to be indifferent.

“Squeak squeak.” Xiao Yu squeaked twice meaninglessly to express his dissatisfaction at Yan Jin’s relentless questioning.
