Chapter 21 (4)
Tong Yao couldn’t stand it anymore. Bending over to turn on her own computer, she went to Ai Jia’s stream and began to swiftly type– —
[ZGDX Smiling: Friend, I won’t put in any good words for you to your girlfriend, no matter how many good things you say about me.]
She sent it.
A half second later, the bullet comments that followed were, “I see something strange”, “Here she comes”, “Smiling, ahhh, I’m your little fan”, “Little sister, teach me how to play Leblanc, please”– —
One of the comments picked out the important information from the message: ……Ai Jia, what’s the relationship between Smiling and your girlfriend?
“Evil friends.” Ai Jia said, “Lately my girlfriend is at odds with me. I feel like she’s purposely trying to split with me so she can have a lesbian relationship with Smiling. I’m so angry! To top all that, I lost to her today. I feel like I have lost all the hope in my life!”
Tong Yao was greatly amused by him, standing in front of her computer.
Ai Jia kept going on, boasting about how strong she was– —
Tong Yao was enjoying the praise, then suddenly someone turned off the stream. She was taken aback and turned to look at Lu Sicheng. He was slowly moving his arm back, “You’ve had enough fun. Keep listening and you’ll really start believing what he says.”
“No one has ever praised me after I graduated from elementary school.” Tong Yao said, “Let me listen some more……”
She tried to get back on her computer as she spoke.
The back of her neck was pinched by that man. She had difficulty turning her head, seeing only Lu Sicheng’s perfectly curved chin. He said, “Don’t listening to him. You want praise? I’ll praise you.”
“……”
The struggling Tong Yao quieted down.
“Praise me.” Tong Yao blinked her eyes, with an expression that she was very much looking forward to it.
Lu Sicheng: “……”
“Come on, praise me.” Tong Yao urged.
Lu Sicheng: “……”
After staring back at that pair of sparkling, expecting black pupils for 15 seconds, Lu Sicheng released Tong Yao, bend down to turn on Ai Jia’s stream again for Tong Yao– –Tong Yao was stunned to hear Ai Jia’s raucous voice again and looked at the man who had already sat back into his own seat acting as if nothing had happened earlier.
“What’s this?”
Tong Yao grabbed his sleeve and shook it.
Lu Sicheng ignored her.
“I had an outstanding performance today, Mr. Captain, where’s my praise?”
She shook his sleeve again.
Lu Sicheng still ignored her.
“Don’t I have any merit that’s worthy of your praise– –”
Before she had finished, Lu Sicheng suddenly grabbed the oily marker on the desk, which he had used when he analysed the skirmish in the afternoon. He took off the cover of the maker, grabbed Tong Yao’s hand over, and quickly drew the ugliest flower she’d ever seen on the back of her hand– —
Tong Yao: “? ? ? ? ? ?”
“A little red flower from your captain.” Lu Sicheng threw down Tong Yao’s hand and the marker at the same time. He calmly said while fixing his eyes on the new match that was just starting on the computer screen, “Try harder next time, I’ll draw it on your forehead.”
Tong Yao: “…………………………………………………..”
She stared at him for 5 seconds to make sure that he wasn’t kidding, then she turned around and quietly went to the bathroom.
Then she found out that the little red flower from Mr. Captain……couldn’t be washed off.
She tried everything, liquid hand soap, body wash, makeup remover, soap, but the red flower was still on her hand. She raised her hand standing in front of the washbasin, finally she had lost it and shouted, “Shit, Lu Sicheng, I can’t wash this ugly flower off! ! !”
“You asked for it, then you want to wash it off. Why are you so difficult to please?” Lu Sicheng was focusing on his game and spoke without turning his head, “Besides, a young girl is not allowed to curse.”
“……”
“……You don’t want a little red flower, next time I’ll draw a turtle?”
“Bah!”
“I’ll draw it on your forehead.”
“……”
