Chapter 53


Jian Shiwu...was dumbfounded.

He understood what Shen Cheng said together, but not separately, he stammered, "But, but you're great, you're ninth on the list, how can you need a baby?"

Shen Cheng didn't change his face: "Then why would Qiao An need it if he was tenth."

?

Makes sense!

Jian Shiwu was in a state of self-doubt, why did all these ranking masters need babies while he, a small rookie, was not thinking about it? Is this the difference between him and the experts?

Jian stammered, "But I've already promised Qiao An."

Shen Cheng lowered his eyes, making it hard to see his emotions, the boy's voice was low and magnetic: "Really?"

"Yeah."

Jian had an inexplicable feeling of weakness and foreboding, even if it seemed to come from a very inexplicable place.

Then he heard Shen Cheng’s words, "Then call Qiao An over, let’s play together."

"Um okay...er what?" Jian Shiwu's eyes widened, he didn't know that this game could be played on a bigger scale?

After Shen Cheng’s book was put down, Qiao An who was playing in the game room was called over. It was the first time Shen Cheng asked him to play a game, it was really new!

Qiao An came over with his computer in his arms and said, "Are the three of us playing?"

Shen Cheng’s posture was lazy as he sat on the sofa, and he said, "Yeah."

"Aren't you still injured?" Qiao An looked into Shen Cheng’s eyes somewhat hesitantly as he sat down on the sofa next to him, smiling, "Don't say we're bullying the injured when the time comes."

Shen Cheng gave him a sideways glance, a meaningful one, and the corners of his mouth curled up in a smile, "No."

The racing game can be played by three people at the same time, which means the Ji family can have three computers at the same time for the youngsters to finish their homework and also play games.

When the game began, Qiao An had not realized the seriousness of the matter, and it was not until after one round that he became enraged, and glance up to look at Jian Shiwu: "Shiwu, why do you always give Shen Cheng open looks, I am the teammate who has to brush up on his intimacy with you."

When Jian Shiwu was in the sports car, he was always looking at where Shen Cheng’s car was, and always opened to Shen Cheng's point of view, to Qiao An, this was the equivalent of giving Shen Cheng’s 'looks".

Shen Cheng turned off the victory page and gave Qiao An a faint look, "Where's all this nonsense from?"

Qiao An felt... wronged! Shen Cheng directly changed the game and restarted it, he invited Qiao An and Jian Shiwu and whispered, "Let's start again."

The new game was again novel and exciting, this time it wasn’t just the three of them, it was a room of six with their other opponents as well, and the new entertainment mode was so open; that if you could crash your opponent’s car with your own remaining intact, your opponent would simply be eliminated from the game.

Qiao An looked at Shen Cheng cautiously, "Unity is strength, you know?"

Shen Cheng gave him a cool look and Qiao An shut up.

Once the game started, none of the three of them had made a move yet, it was the other team that was the first to pick a fight, because Shen Cheng and Jiam Shiwu were kind of new, they didn’t have many skins or appearance, they looked easy for bullying. So the other team showed twelve points of strength as soon as they came up, intending to flip Jian Shiwu and Shen Cheng’s car over.

At first, the person the other side targeted was Shen Cheng.

All three cars tried to take advantage of the corners to counter Shen Cheng’s advantage, and as the yellow car jammed into position to come over, Shen Cheng’s blue sports car, which had been driving calmly, flicked its tail in the air to avoid their pincer attack. Flames burst out across the computer screen as Jian Shiwu exclaimed, "Watch out!"

Shen Cheng’s face was expressionless as he looked at the screen, his long, slender fingers sliding across the keyboard, easily shrugging off his opponent.

The group also discovered that Shen Cheng’s car wasn’t a soft persimmon, and they began to turn their attention to Jian Shiwu, the only real rookie within the group.

"Clang!"

The car with the hostile sign hit Jian Shiwu from behind.

Because Jian Shiwu was indeed the slowest runner in the group, he was quickly surrounded by three hostile cars in a targeted manner. In a sparring match, points are doubled if you can destroy an enemy vehicle. After a few tries and finding out that Jian Shiwu was a real rookie, the hostile team got excited.

Qiao An frowned: "Shiwu, I'm coming to save you."

Jian Shiwu sighed after saving himself several times without success: "You guys don't have to come, I wouldn't have been able to run fast anyway, might as well stall them to buy you guys time, as long as you win, wouldn't it still be considered a victory for me?"

Qiao An hesitated, "But ......"

In his moment of hesitation, Shen Cheng, the one at the foremost stopped with a sharp brake at the bend, he looked at Jian Shiwu's vision and said in a deep voice: "I’ll count three seconds, then jump out of the car."

?

Jian Shiwu subconsciously: "Jumping out of the car wouldn't that mean I’m dead?"

Shen Cheng looked at him sideways, those dark eyes with a twilight, he had the general self-assurance of victory, he said, "Trust me"

A silence fell over the room.

There was little time for hesitation, Jian Shiwu's eyes flickered slightly, just a few moments later he lowered his head and heard Shen Cheng s voice ring out across the room, "One, two, three..."

Jump!

Jian Shiwu's brave avatar pressed the jump button, losing control of the car all at once and began to swing around the track, soon falling behind the most and just as Jane Shiwu was about to wait for his game to end, the blue car that had been braking and waiting ahead made a sharp turn and got stuck at the bend, the three rival men were too late to react and all crashed into the blue car, collectively scrapping it.

The game's public screen displayed a series of four cars' end-of-game notifications, Shen Cheng’s car was scrapped, but he dragged three people to hell together, directly getting for them three times the points.

The game screen was in ruins and sparks were flying, but his side was expressionless.

Shen Cheng said to him, "Now go back to the car."

The man had a few dozen seconds to temporarily jump out of the car, but there was a there was a problem. Jian Shiwu said, "The road ahead is already in ruins, I can't get across.”

Shen Cheng dropped his own computer, he pulled over the keyboard of Jian Shiwu to steer the car. He made a few leaps and jumped over the originally difficult place to fly in a few clicks, after he had jumped the car over the rubble, he switched the keyboard to Jian Shiwu again, "Go on."

Jian Shiwu took it dumbly, and he looked at Shen Cheng’s eyes a few more times in some disbelief.

Shen Cheng thought he was still scared, the boy had a faint smile on his face, looking gentle and elegant, his voice sounded faint but it sent chills down people's backs: "Don't be afraid, no more unscrupulous people will touch you now."

Watching his acting, the tip of Jian’s heart trembled a little.

At the end of the game, he and Qiao An reached the end of the line, all three of the enemy's men were wiped out, while among the three of them only Shen Cheng didn't make it out.

Back to the hall of the room, the three men cursed..

"Crazy people."

"No martial virtue."

" I’ve been down eight lifetimeswhem I was inlinein line with you guys!"

Some childish and vulgar words came into view, and before Shen Cheng could say anything, Jian Shiwu next to him was already huffing and puffing, already annoyed by the whole operation: "Whatever you speak, I'm reporting it all."

When he was angry, his white face was flushed with a little red, and he scratched his little head while he was talking, it looked was naive and cute, like a little sparrow that was stirring.

Qiao An said next to him, "That's it, who the hell doesn’t talk about martial arts ah. Moon you do not worry ah, just ignore these scumbags, when we have a baby, I will go to practice a bull attribute, then I won’t have to put them in the eyes!"

Jian Shiwu: "Huh?"

Shen Cheng’s voice came from the side: "Battle record is 5.25."

Both Jian Shiwu and Qiao An turned their heads to look at him and saw the teenager sitting lazily on the sofa, he slowly said to Qiao An, "I suggest you forget the baby."

Qiao An: "Why?"

"Now with this war record, can you still use a baby as an excuse." Shen Cheng’s lazy: "Won’t it be more even humiliating when you have a baby?"

Qiao An was furious but compared to Shen Cheng’s battle record, he couldn’t say anything to refute it!

In fact, he wasn't that obsessed with babies himself, and Shen Cheng’s words reminded him that hard work on his skills was hard but better.

“But I've already given Jian Shiwu the rings, and it's a waste if he doesn't get married now."

"Is that so?" Under the light, Shen Cheng, wearing a white shirt, looked warm and harmless, he lifted his eyes and glanced at Jian Shiwu, the implication was obvious: "Let the unused rings go to someone in need."

Jian Shiwu: "......"

Under the joint gaze of Qiao An and Shen Cheng, he felt the invisible pressure and the air in the room seemed to be much thinner. Jian Shiwu was shivering while sitting in the corner of the sofa: "I thought about it, this ring I don't even need. "

There was a moment of silence in the air.

A long time later

Shen Cheng raised his eyebrows and asked indifferently, "Why?"

He didn't know if it was an illusion, but Jian Shiwu felt that although Shen Cheng’s words were not threatening or murderous in any way, he felt that it was a send-up question that had to be answered properly.

Shen Cheng looked at the obedient child in front of him and after holdinv his tongue for awhile,he answered crisply in front of his own eyes, "Because my mother said I should concentrate on my studies and not be too precocious."

Once again, the room fell into dead silence.

On ths other side of the table, Qiao An, laughed out loud, laughing so hard that his shoulders shook.

Qiao An was laughing, even Jian Shiwu smiled. Onlh Shen Cheng wasn’t amused one bit.

Jiaam Shiwu could promise to be with Qiao An, but not him, obviously he tried to do better, obviously it was him who cleared the way for Jian Shiwu, but in the end, if it was to choose him, Jian Shiwu still wouldn't rather not.

Qiao An said, "What kind of innocent reason is that, how did you come up with it?"

See, even Qiao An knew it was an excuse to pass the buck.

"What the heck." Jian Shiwu didn't think anything of it, but he was a bit ashamed to be laughed at, so he buried his head in packing books, "Now is the time to concentrate on studying."

Qiao An couldn't stop laughing and patted Shen Cheng’s shoulder: "Jian Shiwu, this thought, this awareness, you see, can't compare, right?"

Shen Cheng couldn’t laugh.

Jian Shiwu packed up his things and stood up to leave: "I'll go back first."

Just as he reached the door, a voice came from behind him, "I'll see you off."

Jian Shiwu twisted his head to see Shen Cheng put hus jacket on and walked over. The two walked side by side on the stairs, Shen Cheng in a leisurely stroll, Jian Shiwu still immersed in the shame of being laughed at, his head buried very low, both in silence for a while.

Then he heard Shen Cheng’s words, "The wound you sustained was because of saving Annie."

He didn't know why Shen Cheng had suddenly thought to ask, but Shen's words were not a question but an affirmation, although he had no intention of hiding it: "Yes."

The two men marched to the door, the cool night breeze blowing through and the autumn laurel on the estate contained a little fragrance.

Shen Cheng looked up at the dim sky and took a breath of the chilly autumn night air to calm the messy emotions in his heart, time was slowly proving many things that he couldn’t reconcile with Jian Shiwu no matter how hard he tried, and now he only had one question, why should Jian Shiwu be nice to him when he rejected him so much?

Shen Chengl spoke: "Why?"

Jian Shiwu looked at him in confusion.

"Why did you save her, you didn't know each other well if I remember correctly." Shen Cheng spoke, "She spread rumours about you, and she did the tampering with your sound for the opening ceremony, you know all that."

The osmanthus flowers swayed in the wind, accompanied by a cool breeze coming in.

Shen Cheng stopped and looked at him condescendingly, his gaze sullen: "Even so, you risked your life to save her?"

If he remembered correctly, he hadn't given Jian Shiwu any good looks in primary school or even in his first year, so why did he still have to be so good to him? At that time it could be explained that it was because Jiaan Shiwu liked him that he did all that, so since he was also so nice to Annie this tims, could it be that ......

Shen Cheng’s gaze went cold: "You like her?"

Jian Shiwu couldn't help but open his mouth wide for this nonsensical conclusion: "How is it possible, I’m normal with her, okay?"

The words fell, the phone inside his pocket suddenly vibrated and rang.

Shen Cheng’s gaze moved down as he said, "Your phone."

He thought it was his mother calling to ask when he was going back, so he picked it up and answered it without thinking: "Hello."

However, a somewhat soft, sweet girl's voice came from the other end of the line: "Hello, Shiwu, this is Annie, this is your phone, right?"

Jian’s eyes widened in disbelief, "Annie?"

He stole a glance at Shen Cheng and saw the young man in front of him, who was half a head taller than himself, looking at him quietly with a deep gaze that made him feel guilty.

Jian Shiwu nagged, "Annie, what is it ah?"

"Oh, I’ve been at home lately, and I heard you’re getting married to Qiao An, right?"

"...... Nothing like that."

So it was just to gossip, Jian Shiwu was relieved and was just about to tell her to stop asking when he heard Anne say, "Is that so, I thought you liked foreigners."

Jian Shiwu was puzzled, "Is there some necessary connection?"

"Of course there is." The openness of the M country made girls over there very outspoken: "If you liked foreigners, then I have a chance too!"

"......"
