Chapter 78 - Made the other person’s belly big
Edited by Divetus
The arena was starting in just a few minutes, and Jing Huan stood beside the arena transporter, looking through Mount Qiya’s sect skills one by one.
Mount Qiyas had very few set skills. They relied on anticipation, judgment, and reaction, similar to that of Fox Fairy Caves, so not many people played them. Jing Huan had never come into contact with one before.
Just studying the skills wasn’t enough, he also spammed his skills in place to check out the specific attack range.
All the players watched as their server’s God of War stood outside the arena and danced wildly about while carrying around the divine artifact.
Xiang Yu came with Love is For You to Eat and saw this scene.
[Current] Love is For You to Eat: …
[Current] Kiss Kiss Fish Fish: What’s this? A demonstration?
[Current] Don’t Ask when I’ll Return: Who knows? I can only keep my resentment to myself. [smile]
[Current] Peachy Fate: I don’t see you keeping anything to yourself?
[Current] Yearning For: ….
[Current] Yearning For: It’s not that…
Xiang Yu looked at her Ge’s team and found that it actually wasn’t Xiao Tianjing, but a little healer with transparent wings.
[Current] Kiss Kiss Fish Fish: Well, well, taking advantage of your wife’s pregnancy and immediately fighting with other women in the arena. [clenched fist]
[Current] Qiufeng: [clenched fist]
[Current] Love is For You to Eat: [clenched fist]
[Current] Yearning For: >. < No!! You’re all misunderstanding what’s happening!!
[Current] Kiss Kiss Fish Fish: ….
[Current] Chunxiao: .
[Current] Regardless of Lovesickness: [thumbs up]
Yearning For had only said one sentence, and it immediately cleared up the situation for everyone.
[Current] Don't Ask when I’ll Return: Maybe this counts as key identifying features ba.
Jing Huan continued to type to explain, but as soon as the scene shifted, he had been taken to the arena.
“Are there any skills that you couldn’t understand?” Xiang Huaizhi closed the healer’s skill introduction interface and asked.
“I theoretically understand them,” said Jing Huan, “But I might not be able to really use them… Why don’t we go back to weeding ba.”
“It’ll be fine.” Xiang Huaizhi clicked to start the match. “Lots of points, lose as you wish.”
Unexpectedly, Jing Huan’s operation was very skilled, even crisper and more clean-cut than when he first took his own Fox Fairy Cave to the arena.
It could be seen that he knew how to position himself and fully take advantage of the map’s battlefield terrain; however, his timing of switching to the divine artifact wasn’t good, resulting in him not being able to use the divine artifact to its fullest potential.
After watching several PK rounds, a few questions arose in Xiang Huaizhi’s heart.
Although the fighting system of NCH was very similar to the games that Jing Huan had said he had played before, the NCH’s arena battle map was unique.
In some battle maps, there was a healing pool that would only spawn every few minutes. Both sides could use it, but it could only be used by one person, first come, first serve. In PK, the healing pool was basically exclusively used by DPS players, and healers or sealers wouldn’t try going for them.
Xiao Tianjing had never tried to mistakenly go for the healing pool.
In addition, DPS players who wanted to get the free healing pool had to remember the refresh time and place where the healing pool spawned, in order to steal it away from their opponents.
In these battles, the healing pools were all bagged by Jing Huan, and even Regardless of Lovesickness couldn’t grab them before him.
This wasn’t something a novice healer player could do.
In the past, Xiang Huaizhi would’ve probably just chalked it up to talent. However, since he knew that Jing Huan was lying to him about some things, he had to think a bit more.
When Lu Hang came back with midnight snacks, he saw his bosom roommate frowning and asked, “What’s the matter? Do you want to eat spicy hot pot?”
“No.”
Xiang Huaizhi controlled the loli healer on the screen and gave Jing Huan a bit of healing.
Operating this sect was very simple, the cooldown for the skills was long, so it wasn’t any different from playing Lian Lian Kan.
Lu Hang opened up the snack and asked, “How is it, is playing a healer fun? Is it a lot easier than being a DPS?”
Xiang Huaizhi didn’t respond to him, and he didn’t know how long it took before he asked, “Under what kind of circumstances would someone deliberately act weak in front of another?”
Xiang Huaizhi’s words were very general. Others may not understand him, but Lu Hang had known him for so long that he immediately understood.
He grabbed a napkin to wipe his mouth with. “Are you talking about Xiao Jingjing?”
Xiang Huaizhi’s brows creased. “How did you know?”
“Isn’t that obvious? She plays very well, but she’ll act coquettish and spoiled as soon as she arrives in front of you.” Lu Hang said, “She probably wants to arouse your protective instincts.”
Xiang Huaizhi still didn’t understand, his eyes were half-lidded, and he didn’t make a sound.
“Forget it, anyway, as long as you know you’ve been taken in, it’s fine.” Lu Hang said, smiling and calling him “Xiao Tianjing’s husband.”
They played in the arena all night and only lost two matches.
Jing Huan breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, at least he didn’t lose any points.
“Gege, I’ll log off of your account first?” Jing Huan looked at the time. “Then, I’ll go to bed la; I have early classes tomorrow.”
Xiang Huaizhi let out an “en”, and then suddenly thought of something. “You don’t have anything you want to tell me?”
Jing Huan paused in his actions of quitting the game.
What else does he have to say?
He blinked, thought for a long time, and then choked out a sentence, “Good night?”
Xiang Huaizhi very softly frowned.
They’re in-game husband and wife, but this person didn’t even tell him his birthday?
Don’t you want to take advantage of your birthday and ask for a gift… Or something else?
His earphones were quiet. Jing Huan hesitated and called out, “Gege?”
After a long bout of silence, at last there was a little noise at that end.
“Sleep ba.”
*
On his birthday, Jing Huan slept until noon and woke up to find his cellphone full of WeChat messages.
By the time he had finished opening up red envelopes and replying to messages, his hand had gone numb, and an hour had passed.
Finally, Lu Wenhao called to hurry him up, and he finally rose out of the bed.
He was the last to arrive.
There was a Land Rover parked downstairs. When the people inside saw him, they opened the door, and Jing Huan crouched down and jumped into the car.
“You’re too slow, aren’t you? Two hours of makeup?” Lu Wenhao asked.
“Laozi is already very fast. When you called me, I hadn’t even gotten out of bed yet.” After Jing Huan finished talking, he turned his head towards the driver’s seat and said, “Troubling you, Lu Ge.”
They were originally going to rent a car, but Lu Hang had said that he could drive his. The Land Rover could easily fit five big men and still have space leftover.
Lu Hang heartily laughed, “It’s a small matter, I also want to thank you for inviting me. It’s too boring to just stay at school every single day.”
Jing Huan smiled, turned his head, and called out to the man in the front passenger seat, “Ge.”
Xiang Huaizhi could smell his cool and pleasant cologne, mixed with the refreshing smell of toothpaste.
“En.” He turned his head and looked into Jing Huan’s eyes. “Happy birthday.”
Jing Huan didn’t know why, although he had been very sleepy when he had come downstairs, as soon as he said a word to Xiang Huaizhi, he wasn’t as sleepy anymore.
He actually wanted to talk more, but Lu Wenhao put his arms around his neck and dragged him back.
A gift box was handed to him. “Huanhuan, your birthday present, open it quickly and look.”
Jing Huan grinned and unhurriedly opened up the box.
It was a brand name wallet with a brown grain design and a nice texture.
Jing Huan took a look and then closed the box. “Thank you.”
Gao Zixiang said, “The present I prepared for you hasn’t arrived yet. When it comes, I’ll give it to you.”
“I’m already this old, why bother giving any gifts ah,” Jing Huan propped his head on his hand and said, “If you call me daddy, that would be better than anything.”
Gao Zixiang laughed and cursed at him, “Scram.”
Lu Hang was put in a good mood while listening to their quips and banter. He shook his head and said, “Xiangxiang, look how united and loving other people’s dormitories are.”
Xiang Huaizhi didn’t even bother looking up. “Why, do you also want to call me daddy?”
Lu Hang: “…”
When going out this time, Jing Huan hadn’t brought anything but his cellphone.
Lu Wenhao looked at him and asked, “You didn’t bring your computer?”
Jing Huan looked down and played with his cellphone. “No homework, why would I bring my computer?”
“Then, why did you bring it to the resort last time?”
Last time it was for doing instances.
This time daddy is pregnant. I can’t do anything, so bring along my computer my ass.
When Jing Huan thought about it, he had a headache, and he grumpily said, “Because I wanted to, shut up.”
However, Lu Wenhao had reminded him, so Jing Huan took out his cellphone and opened up the WeChat chatbox.
Xiao Jing ya: Gege QAQ, I’m going out today. I’m afraid I can’t get online to increase my health value today.
In order to increase health values, besides taking tonics and supplements, there were other cheaper ways. One of them was being in the company of your husband.
Two people in a team for more than six hours could add three points of health value, but this could only be done once a day.
Xiang Huaizhi took out his cellphone, without betraying the slightest iota of emotion, and checked his messages with drooping eyes.
Xiang: Understood.
They had been driving for only about 20 minutes, but Lu Wenhao had changed his position several times. Finally, he couldn’t help it anymore, and he asked with white lips, “Lu Ge, can we drive more slowly? I’m a little carsick.”
Lu Hang was stunned and slowed down. “Okay.”
Xiang Huaizhi glanced at the rearview mirror and said, “Find a place to stop. You can sit in the front.”
Lu Wenhao was moved. “Senior Xiang, you’re very kind.”
The car stopped at the side of the road, and the two of them exchanged seats.
Xiang Huaizhi had switched to sitting in the back seat, shoulder to shoulder with Jing Huan, the smell of cologne in his nostrils growing stronger and stronger.
Lu Wenhao was too uncomfortable to sleep. He opened up the window a bit and breathed fresh air. No one was talking, so he started to chat, “Huanhuan, who are you chatting with while clutching your phone?”
Gao Zixiang took a glance at his phone and said, “Holy shit, he’s chatting with our class flower!”
Xiang Huaizhi was a bit taller than him, so if he lowered his head a bit, he could see the content on Jing Huan’s screen.
He didn’t have a habit of peeping, but he couldn’t help peering down.
Gao Zixiang wasn’t talking nonsense. Jing Huan’s name for this person on his phone was “Class Flower.”
Class Flower first wished him a happy birthday, and then said that she had prepared a gift for him in class tomorrow.
Jing Huan said, “Scram, don’t talk nonsense.”
Gao Zixiang was happy. “You named her Class Flower yourself on your phone, I didn’t say anything.”
“I don’t know her name, and you’re always calling her Class Flower, Class Flower, so that’s why I called her that.” Jing Huan moved his finger and declined the gift.
Lu Hang asked curiously, “Class Flower? Is she very pretty? Introduce Ge to her.”
“She’s alright,” Lu Wenhao snickered. “Don’t bother, the young girl has her heart set, just take a backseat for now.”
Jing Huan also started laughing and was too lazy to acknowledge them.
Lu Wenhao got more energetic the more he talked. “Alas, I started having headaches as soon as it’s winter. Last winter, I collected five scarves for Huanhuan, but in the end, Huanhuan didn’t accept a single one. I had to return all of them for him. The expression of those little girls… Poor things. Why do you think they didn’t just give them to me? I could wrap all five around my neck.”
Lu Hang laughed and said to Jing Huan through the rearview mirror, “Why not date one? If you don’t taste the sweet and sour flavor of love in college, you’re not afraid you’ll regret it later?”
“Don’t like any of them.” Jing Huan dragged in other people. “Xiang Ge also isn’t dating anyone.”
Lu Hang responded, “Who said he isn’t dating anyone?”
Jing Huan was stunned and subconsciously glanced at the person beside him.
Xiang Huaizhi’s head was lowered, scrolling through Weibo, and unexpectedly didn’t refute the statement.
“Really?” Lu Wenhao sat up straight.
“Really,” Lu Hang thought of something, his lips twitched, and he smiled. “He even made the other person’s belly big.”
The car was completely silent for more than ten seconds.
Jing Huan turned around in shock and found his voice after a while. “Re-really?”
Xiang Huaizhi lifted his head to look at him, and who knew what he was thinking, but after a few seconds he said, “En.”
Jing Huan: “…”
Truly a player.
