Chapter 1: A chaotic encounter 2
In Qiancheng Shopping Mall, the glass-like sunlight gently sprinkles on the white marble floor through the spotlessly clean French windows, and the soothing piano music quietly flows in everyone's ears. The atmosphere is so peaceful and beautiful.
Apart from……
Lv Yan patted Ye Xiaoling's shoulder helplessly and whispered in her ear: "You have done good deeds, shouldn't you leave quietly and hide your achievements and fame now?"
After all, her jaw-dropping fight just now was already at the level of a martial arts movie...
After hearing Lu Yan's words, Ye Xiaoling came back to her senses as if awakened from a dream. Her fair cheeks turned red and her heart beat rapidly!
She definitely didn't mean to be in the spotlight!
It's just that her body reacted faster than her brain, and when she came to her senses, everything had already happened!
As expected...it's better to slip away quickly at this time!
Thinking of this, Ye Xiaoling took Lu Yan's arm, which was extremely rare. She lowered her head and hurried to a corner where there were few people. But the two of them had just walked a few steps on tiptoe when they suddenly heard a low and pleasant voice behind them.
"Would you mind waiting a moment?"
Squeak——
Ye Xiaoling couldn't help but slam on the brakes, causing Lu Yan to almost fall to the ground!
She turned her head weakly, only to find that Yuan Ye, who was not far away, was walking towards her with an elegant smile on his face and with firm steps.
As the distance between them shortened, she felt that Yuan Ye's facial features became clearer and clearer. His gem-like eyes seemed to become deeper, emitting a light brown light, and his eyes were slightly upturned, with a hint of sharpness that was difficult to capture but could not be ignored. His straight and handsome nose was like a perfect statue of an ancient Greek god, and his beautiful thin lips were slightly raised, and the corners of his mouth seemed to gather a little dazzling light like the starry sky.
and……
Ye Xiaoling, who had always been fearless, took a few steps back nervously.
He smiled so gently, why did she feel a strong sense of oppression from him?
Could it be that Yuan Ye’s outstanding appearance and the team he owns almost represent the entire e-sports circle, so he is so eye-catching in the eyes of her, an “insider”?
While Ye Xiaoling was in a daze, Lu Yan's jaw almost dropped to the ground. She looked at Yuan Ye, who was standing in front of them in a neat suit, with shining eyes. She tried hard to suppress the scream in her throat, but her fingers couldn't help but pinch Ye Xiaoling's arm hard!
Being able to have such a close contact with Yuan Ye completely satisfied all the fantasies of this “fan girl”!
"Although I am very grateful for your help just now, you are a girl after all." Yuan Ye's voice was as warm as the warm breeze, "Protecting yourself is the most important thing. Are you not hurt?"
As if she had not yet recovered from the "light" on Yuan Ye, Ye Xiaoling shook her head somewhat woodenly. The moment Yuan Ye looked at her, her eyes suddenly became a little excited:
The man in front of her was a genuine e-sports god, and the rich man she "admired"! If she could develop the gym while playing games like Yuan Ye...
Thinking of this, her heart began to beat rapidly, a beautiful picture unfolded in her mind, and the whole world became sunny and bright...
A very light blush spread across Ye Xiaoling's seemingly transparent skin. From Yuan Ye's angle, he could see her butterfly-like eyelashes trembling slightly, and her eyes becoming brighter and brighter. Yuan Ye noticed this somewhat abnormal behavior and quickly came to a suitable conclusion -
She rescued others regardless of her own safety when an accident happened. She looked nervous and blushed inexplicably when chatting with me. This girl should also be a fan of their team, right?
Such violent and crazy fans...
Yuan Ye shuddered secretly, but he quickly glanced at the reporters who were still guarding around and refused to leave. Still maintaining a decent smile on his lips, he continued patiently and gently: "I'm glad you're not hurt. Thank you again." Then he stretched out his hand gracefully, and his slender fingers stayed in front of her eyes, as if waiting for her response .
Click, click!
The sound of shutter clicks rang in my ears, and the eyes of several reporters and fans seemed to become more fanatical!
Ye Xiaoling, who once again became the focus of the crowd, stood there in a daze, secretly twisting her hands, with dense cold sweat oozing from her palms. She stared at Yuan Ye in confusion, originally wanting to leave in a magnanimous and unrestrained manner, but now...
Why did everyone look as if they wanted to eat her alive?
There was also a gentle yet extremely persistent look in Yuan Ye's eyes, which seemed to carry a hint of helplessness...
What the hell! If it's just an apology, there's no need to be so serious, right?
It’s very difficult to leave here now!
Under the gaze of countless eyes, Ye Xiaoling, who had completely lost the ability to think, stretched out her hand hesitantly, only wanting to resolve the incident quickly and then leave with Lu Yan.
But, just a second before their fingertips touched!
Ye Xiaoling's eyes suddenly widened and she looked straight in the direction behind Yuan Ye!
He saw a young man with a ferocious face jumping out of a huge "Transformers" model, roaring and running towards him!
At the critical moment, Ye Xiaoling, whose sense of crisis had skyrocketed to 100%, once again returned to her role as a female hero. Without saying a word, she took a step behind Yuan Ye and knocked down the man who was rushing towards her with a neat shoulder throw!
Yuan Ye, who finally realized the situation, trembled with both shoulders. His handsome features gradually became stiff, and his body joints seemed to be rusted. He turned around with difficulty...
Just now... I seemed to hear the sound of bones touching the ground?
The boy who was knocked to the ground was taken away by the security guard who had come to his senses before he could even stand up. The scene, which had gradually calmed down, seemed to become fanatical again.
Ye Xiaoling stood there straight, with a clear smile in her eyes. She looked at Yuan Ye's frightened expression and thought he was greatly frightened. She did not forget to comfort him: "It's okay now."
But she didn't know that her bright smile at this moment formed a strong contrast with her "heroic action" just now, which made people feel extremely uncomfortable...
This is a living “Barbie”!
Because of the fear of the reporters who rushed over and surrounded the two of them, Ye Xiaoling was even more at a loss, and could only look at Yuan Ye in front of her pitifully. Yuan Ye couldn't help but let out a very low laugh, leaving all the panic and confusion behind, and asked patiently: "You have helped me so much, how can I thank you?"
There it is again! This trump card smile!
Ye Xiaoling's nerves suddenly jumped, and she couldn't help but think over and over again in her mind: Maybe this is what Lu Yan said, the influence of handsome guys?
Moreover, Lv Yan, who had been squeezed out, had completely entered the "brainless fan" mode. Ye Xiaoling was even more certain that it was not suitable to stay here for long. She simply gritted her teeth and hastily said "No need" and wanted to walk through the crowd to pull Lv Yan away quickly. Unexpectedly, Yuan Ye actually stood in front of her and raised his eyebrows thoughtfully: "Are you here to play with friends today? Tell me if there is anything you like in the mall, and I will buy it for you?"
His deep voice seemed to have some kind of magical power, which made Ye Xiaoling suddenly feel at a loss. She didn't dare to continue looking at him, and squeezed out a few words from between her teeth with difficulty: "No need..."
Can't she just leave in peace? If she continues like this, those fans will really tear her to pieces!
Lu Yan, who was standing next to her, pinched her arm hard, staring anxiously: How come you don’t cherish such a good opportunity?
Yuan Ye didn't care about her stiff answer and continued to ask patiently: "This is what I should do, don't be polite, or..." He suddenly seemed to remember something, his eyes lit up, "Which member of our team do you like? I'll take you to take a photo, okay?"
after all……
A gleam of fatigue flashed across his bright eyes. There were so many reporters around him, if he was caught "not knowing how to repay kindness", there might be another earth-shaking hype.
Ye Xiaoling waved her hands again, and she felt as if two burning flames were dancing on her face. She could not think of any nice answer except to shake her head, but suddenly she caught the distressing weariness in Yuan Ye's eyes.
She couldn't help but stand there in a daze, and some disgusting comments on the Internet came to her mind.
As a famous e-sports player, Yuan Ye's rule of "never participating in live competitions" caused dissatisfaction among many players. Some even suspected that he had been cheating from beginning to end and was just using his identity to hype and make profits.
As for her, she simply concealed her true identity because she didn't want to attract too much attention. Not only did she never show her face in the game videos she made, but her voice was also processed. Many people suspected that she was operating behind the scenes.
Maybe... Yuan Ye also has some unspeakable difficulties?
Thinking of this, Ye Xiaoling felt that he was also a person who worked very hard but could not get recognition. She even forgot to say the word of refusal. She only left a meaningful look and whispered: "You... still try hard to play games, one day... everything will be fine..." At this point, she suddenly realized that her consolation was too pale and powerless, and hurriedly added sincerely, "I also saw your last battle video! Although it was a narrow victory, the location of the trap and the calculation of the attack time were simply perfect! If it weren't for the late support of teammates, we could have won in 20 minutes!"
When talking about her favorite game, Ye Xiaoling's dull and silent habit disappeared, and she became energetic. Yuan Ye couldn't help but frowned in confusion, but asked some questions calmly. Ye Xiaoling didn't notice it, but happily answered them one by one, completely ignoring the sharp light in Yuan Ye's eyes.
The girl in front of him was definitely not an ordinary fan! Most of his fans were male fans who were attracted by the excellent operating skills of his team members, and the rest were almost all female fans who were attracted by their "looks" but knew nothing about game operations. And the girl in front of him...
From her words, we can tell that she is not only very knowledgeable about the game, but also very good at playing the game. Could it be that she is also an unknown master?
Ye Xiaoling finally finished speaking and felt Yuan Ye's inquiring gaze, as if a basin of cold ice water fell from the sky, and all her rationality quickly returned to her brain...
Why did she say it so clearly!
"Uh... I mean..." She began to rack her brains to find a reason to make amends, "This is just my personal opinion, a random guess, hehe..."
Her hesitant attitude aroused Yuan Ye's vigilance, and he couldn't help but recall that the girl's attitude towards him seemed not as excited as when talking about the game, and she didn't show much joy when she heard the request to take a photo with the teammates, so... maybe she wasn't their fan at all?
"It seems to me that you have a very thorough understanding of the game." Looking at the girl who seemed to be full of secrets, Yuan Ye could not help but slowly approach her again, "How about this, you have helped me so much, if there is anything I can do for you, just ask..."
"Really, there's no need!" Feeling the pressure from Yuan Ye again, Ye Xiaoling jumped a few steps away with sweat all over her forehead. She pulled up the corners of her mouth very reluctantly, and then revealed an encouraging smile, "You play the game very well! Keep it up!" After saying that, she really didn't stop for a second, and directly grabbed Lu Yan's arm and left.
If I don't run now... I'll never have another chance!
In the blink of an eye, Ye Xiaoling's figure had disappeared from the sight of the onlookers. Lu Yan was still looking back reluctantly, and couldn't help complaining: "What a good opportunity! A man like Yuan Ye! It wouldn't be a bad thing to get in touch with him, right?"
Contact? Or not!
As a nobody, she shouldn't have anything to do with Yuan Ye, right? What if her identity was discovered by his terrifying fans?
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but turn her head and glance at the person behind her.
He seemed to still be staring in her direction. As the distance between them gradually widened, his slender figure became blurred, but his sharp gaze seemed to remain on her, like a shadow that could not be shaken off...
Another drop of cold sweat slid down her cheek. Ye Xiaoling turned her head quickly as if feeling guilty, and continued to run towards Huayuan Pavilion without saying a word.
OMG! Today, just pretend that you have never been out!
