After a while, someone sat opposite her. Xu Li looked away from her phone screen. It was Jiang Kai. They had just praised each other's skills. For some reason, Xu Li suddenly felt awkward. She felt like she was sitting on pins and needles. She wished she could order with Meng Qingqing.
Fortunately, Jiang Kai had no intention of chatting. He only lowered his head and looked at his phone. In fact, his mind was not on his phone at all. As a result, when the phone notified him, he almost fell off his chair!
The person who sent the message was Lu Qizhou. Jiang Kai looked up at Lu Qizhou, who was queuing up to pay the bill. Just as he was about to ask him what was wrong with him, he saw the content of Lu Qizhou's message. "Brother Kai, are you interested in that Xu Li?"
Jiang Kai stared at his phone for a while, not understanding how that fool Lu Qizhou could tell. The next second, Lu Qizhou sent another message. "I've been in a relationship once, after all. I can still tell this. You don't have to pretend in front of me. I won't tell anyone."
Jiang Kai frowned and stole a glance at Xu Li. Seeing that she was still playing with her phone with her head lowered and did not pay attention to his situation, he tapped twice on the screen. "Is it obvious?"
"F*ck!" Lu Qizhou exclaimed. Jiang Kai looked in the direction of the voice and saw Lu Qizhou frantically catching the aluminum basin that was about to fall to the ground.
Jiang Kai's face darkened. He knew that Lu Qizhou was bluffing! He kicked his chair back a little, stood up with his phone, and walked towards Lu Qizhou.
Lu Qizhou was so frightened that he threw the aluminum basin into Wen Heng's arms and ran away.
Wen Heng looked at the basin in his hand in confusion and then at Jiang Kai, who was walking over aggressively. He swallowed his saliva in fear. "Well… Brother Kai, what are you doing?"
Jiang Kai took two bottles of coke from the freezer and took the aluminum basin that belonged to Lu Qizhou. After paying, he asked the shopkeeper to pack it up. He took the coke back to the table and placed a can beside Xu Li.
Xu Li looked up in confusion. Jiang Kai said nonchalantly, "Lu Qizhou treated you to a drink. He said that your words woke him up."
Xu Li did not think too much about it and thanked him.
After dinner, Jiang Kai took the food that he had packed for Lu Qizhou and went back to the internet cafe with Xu Li and the rest. Lu Qizhou was playing games with his headphones on. He was probably angry with his teammates and cursed all sorts of vulgarities.
Suddenly, there was a takeaway box in front of him. Lu Qizhou's words were stuck in his throat. He looked up stiffly. "Hi, Brother Kai?"
"Okay." Jiang Kai nodded and sat down at the side. He turned on the computer and logged in again.
Lu Qizhou, who had thought that he would not be able to escape death, was a little curious when he realized that Jiang Kai did not hit him. He mustered his courage and went over. "Brother Kai… are you not angry anymore?"
"Why am I angry?" Jiang Kai asked.
Lu Qizhou instantly fell silent. Although he didn't know why Jiang Kai didn't mind him bluffing, he was afraid that he would really get beaten up if he continued asking.
In the private room, Meng Qingqing was watching a youth idol drama. She was crying while Xu Li was playing games and passing her tissues.
Wen Heng was definitely not a good teammate. His gaming skills were too lousy! Xu Li started to despise him after playing a few rounds with him. When the game was over, Xu Li stood up, scooped up the water bottle beside her, and took a sip. She said, "You guys play first. I'm going out to take a breather."
"Boss." Wen Heng raised his head and called out to Xu Li. "Bring me a pack of tissues. I need to go to the toilet."
Meng Qingqing stopped crying and went to hit Wen Heng in disdain. "Aren't you disgusting? Shut up!"
"It's nature's call." Wen Heng scratched his head and urged Xu Li. "Boss, hurry up. I can hold it in for a while longer."
Xu Li: "…" The corners of her mouth twitched. Coincidentally, her teammates called for Wen Heng's support. Wen Heng looked at the computer again.
There were people selling tissues in the internet cafe at the counter at the entrance. When Xu Li passed by Jiang Kai's desk, she subconsciously stopped. At this moment, Jiang Kai's game was about to end. Xu Li stood at the back and watched for a while.
At the end of the game, Xu Li's hands were itching. After all, compared to Wen Heng, that noob, Jiang Kai's gameplay was so perfect that she had nothing to say!
After this round, Jiang Kai rubbed his sore left wrist. He seemed to have sensed something and turned around to see Xu Li standing behind him.
Xu Li raised his eyebrows and took the initiative to invite him. "Want to play a round together?"
"Sure." Jiang Kai kicked Lu Qizhou's chair leg.
