It took quite a while for the daydreaming Xia Shangzhou and Lu Benlai to notice that there was something amiss with Lin Jiage’s expression. Afraid that they might have gone overboard with their jokes, they immediately feigned ignorance and changed the topic.
“Student Lu, the weather today seems fine.”
“Student Xia, the weather today is indeed fine. A beautiful azure sky filled with many white clouds.”
Returning from his thoughts, Lin Jiage first glanced at Xia Shangzhou and Lu Benlai, who were discussing the weather with serious looks on their faces. He turned to look at the dangerously smoggy sky outside and criticized internally:These two idiots!
In that instant, he was really tempted to pretend that he didn’t know them.
While thinking of this, Lin Jiage increased his pace even more.
A second after the trio stepped into the classroom, the school bell rang.
Seated at the very last row, Lin Jiage only listened to the lesson for five minutes before he brought out the newly copied information on his laptop and began reading through it.
There was a section of the text where the letter ‘S’ appeared rather frequently.
As he stared at it, Lin Jiage eventually found his gaze fixated upon the ‘S’.
S, the first letter of Shi Yao’s name.
Just when did her name become so deeply imprinted in his mind, that even an alphabet letter could remind him of her?
Stretching his finger forward, Lin Jiage tapped on the ‘S’ on the screen. His mind slowly drifted back to what happened yesterday…
After his late-night cold shower, he returned to his bedroom and saw that a certain unparalleled and one-of-a-kind pet had flung off her blanket, so he walked forward to pick it up and covered her snugly.
Perhaps due to the warm temperature in the room, her sleeping face had a tinge of redness to it.
In that moment, Lin Jiage suddenly felt the same urge he had in his grandfather’s ward yesterday. He wanted to eternalize this moment, and so—
…
Returning back from his thoughts, Lin Jiage suddenly took out his phone and tapped into the Photo Gallery.
There were only two photographs saved inside. One was snapped yesterday afternoon, an image of her munching on an apple in his grandfather’s ward. The warm sunshine on her face accentuated the simple satisfaction radiating from her face, perfectly displaying the serene wonders of life.
The other photo was one of her sleeping peacefully. Her long eyebrows were slightly curled upward, slightly resembling the wings of a butterfly. Her scarlet lips were slightly pressed together into a slight pout. It was a face so adorable that it could warm one’s heart down to its very depths…
…
Eight o’clock that night, the four-person Chicken Dinner Team of the [Sexy and Frisky] chat gathered punctually in the Great Desert of Miramar.
Today’s [111111] wasn’t as dazed and inattentive as the [111111] from yesterday, but as a whole, he was still performing beneath his usual level.
At half past ten, [111111] logged out of the game.
Intrigued, Shi Yao asked, “Why did your boss leave so early tonight?”
Surprisingly, the usually noisy Juice and Expert didn’t reply to her through the voice chat. Instead, [Expert of the Monkeys] sent a message, [Boss isn’t feeling too well today. He has a fever and just took his medicine, so Juice and I won’t be able to use the voice chat anymore.] Shi Yao quickly replied with an “I see” before falling silent.
Without the voice chat, Shi Yao couldn’t understand what Expert and Juice were up to, so she eventually found herself unable to keep up with their tempo. Expert and Juice would type out messages to guide her along, but as a result of that, they were unable to concentrate fully in the game. In a moment of inattention, their entire team was wiped out.
By the time they finished the game, it was already close to eleven. Thus, Shi Yao told Expert and Juice that she wasn’t playing anymore.
She backed out of the game and went to bathe, but couldn’t help recalling that [111111] had a fever, and this inadvertently reminded her of Lin Jiage’s cold…
