Chapter 1380: If We Win, I'll Pursue Her (3)

“Mm, mm, it’s so delicious.”

“Aunt, please make more in the future.”

Zhou Qi listened to them awkwardly change the subject without exposing them, calmly sitting down at the dining table, elegantly peeling a small lobster and eating it.

Then he leisurely started on a second one, everyone watching him. The few young people who had just been gossiping breathed a sigh of relief, but then they heard Zhou Qi say: “I see everyone is quite idle, so after tomorrow’s practice match, let’s have an internal training session too.”

“Pfft…”

Someone was drinking water and spat it out upon hearing this. Everyone except An Rui looked to Zhou Qi in unison: “Brother Qi, we were wrong.”

“Brother Qi, please don’t be too tough.”

Zhou Qi smiled slightly, ate another small lobster: “I’m not rough, I’m very gentle.”

Everyone sweated, waterfall sweat.

This classmate, do you have the nerve to say you’re gentle?

Who was it during training that treated them like NPCs and rubbed them on the ground?

The young people were tearful, while An Rui looked thoughtfully at Zhou Qi.

Though he didn’t understand what had happened, the years of friendship made it very clear to An Rui that Zhou Qi was in a good mood now.

Considering the events of recent times and potentially forthcoming ones, even with low emotional intelligence, An Rui had a suspicion.

A plate of small lobsters was quickly finished, the young ones about to be roughed up ran back to their rooms.

Downstairs, only An Rui and Zhou Qi were left.

An Rui isn’t the type to beat around the bush, when he has a suspicion, he says it directly: “You and Xiao, making progress?”

“Hm?”

“In a great mood.”

Zhou Qi smiled: “Next Saturday, if we win, I’ll pursue her.”

“Have you thought it through?”

Zhou Qi looked down, fiddling with the cup in his hand, silent for two seconds then smiled: “Because I realized, I can’t accept other men standing beside her.”

As someone who’s never been in love, An Rui could understand this statement but didn’t quite grasp it, yet with strong brotherly loyalty, he patted Zhou Qi’s shoulder: “Go for it, I’m rooting for you two.”

“Thanks.”

As they spoke, neither noticed in the dark hallway, a person in floral pants was standing there with a cup, quietly retreated to his room after hearing their conversation.

Shortly thereafter, a WeChat group was established.

I am Ah Shuang: [Brothers, for Brother Qi’s happiness, let’s work hard next Saturday.]

I am Ah Shuang: [Typo, typo, I meant happiness.]

Head tilt: [Kid, you’ve been exposed.]

[Seconded]

The next day, Xiao Rou got up early and arrived at the milk tea shop.

“Rourou, morning.”

Turns out someone was even earlier, it was her friend Xu Qingqing whom Xiao Rou had asked to come along.

“Qingqing, you’re up so early.”

Xu Qingqing, though not highly educated, has a bold and open personality. If you’re not familiar with her, you’d never guess that this sunflower-like girl actually comes from a very unhappy family.

Xu Qingqing’s mother passed away early, her father remarried, the family situation was decent, but she wasn’t so lucky, didn’t encounter a good stepmother, and her grades weren’t good, which is why Xu Qingqing set out on her own early.

“It’s the first day, always exciting.”

Xu Qingqing smiled, she wasn’t particularly pretty, but her smile was bright.
