Ji Chen successfully added Lin Zimao’s social account, feeling very happy.
After Lin Zimao finished adding, he glanced at Jiang Xuan behind Ji Chen, and said: “This senior looks a bit familiar?”
Just as Jiang Xuan was about to speak, Ji Chen stepped in: “Let me tell you in a low voice, he is Senior Jiang Xuan, the school grass of our school.”
Lin Zimao smiled at Jiang Xuan, he acted very skillfully and naturally as a stranger: “Oh? Senior Jiang Xuan, long time no see, you are still so handsome.”
Seeing Ji Chen putting away the communicator with great care, Jiang Xuan was a little angry: “Not as handsome as you.”
Lin Zimao blinked: “Do you appreciate my kind of handsome then?”
Before Jiang Xuan could answer, the host called Lin Zimao to do the interview.
When Lin Zimao left, he gave Ji Chen a small smile, it looked a little harsh to Jiang Xuan’s eyes, thinking that he shouldn’t come with Ji Chen, but he couldn’t hold back.
After he left, Ji Chen was still immersed in Lin Zimao’s smile, making him dazed and disoriented1暈頭轉向 (yūn tóu zhuàn xiàng): confused and disoriented; lose one’s head/bearings; be muddle-headed., when he turned around, he suddenly realized that his brother’s face was cold, looking at him with gloomy eyes, as if strangers should not approach him, Ji Chen felt terrified when he saw him.
Ji Chen coughed and asked him: “Why are you upset, did junior offended you? No, you two know each other?”
Jiang Xuan said without emotion: “Um, I know him.”
Ji Chen almost jumped up: “You know Lin Zimao, why didn’t you tell me earlier? I’m going as far as asking someone’s social account in embarrassment.”
Jiang Xuan emotionlessly said: “I was in charge of their class during military training.” In his heart, thinking, why should I tell you?
Ji Chen was a little excited again: “Why? Don’t you know him well enough to understand his situation? Tell me, tell me about his military training!”
Jiang Xuan paused for a second: “A difficult person to deal with, there is nothing to understand. He may not fancy you either, as you said earlier, he has rejected many people’s confessions.”
Ji Chen: “Why? Maybe I’m the exception?”
Jiang Xuan said an answer that he has always disdained to use the most: “You are average-looking, not the exception.” For the first time, he took advantage of his appearance, this face also has its advantages.
Ji Chen squinted at him: “No need for such a personal attack, Jiang Xuan.” Something suddenly came to mind, “No, you two don’t get along, so you don’t want me to be friends with him, I’ve read the forum, I heard that he fought during military training, but which boy doesn’t fight, don’t ask too much, after all, it’s me who makes a boyfriend, not you. However, you are my brother, if junior brother agrees to be my boyfriend, and you have a conflict with him, should I help you or help him?” Just a little worried.
One is a cold man, armed with ice blocks all over his body, while Lin Zimao is like a scorching sun, with shining points on his body, Ji Chen is attracted to him imperceptibly, this is probably the legendary personality charm!
Jiang Xuan stared at him: “Anyway, it’s out of the question.”
Ji Chen received Jiang Xuan’s death stare, since his brother is so opposed to his ‘marriage’ with his junior, he should just accept it on the surface, as for dating in private, that’s his business, emotional matters, who can say for sure?
Ji Chen seriously just for show to his brother: “Okay, okay, I understand, I will listen to you and not pursue him.”
Only then was Jiang Xuan satisfied, and emphasized again: “With him, without me.”
Lin Zimao went to the host’s side and picked up the microphone, before he could open his mouth, there was a lot of shouting from below, all in support of Lin Zimao, Ji Chen even whistled, Jiang Xuan took the initiative to remind him: “You promised me.”
Ji Chen patted his mouth: “I can’t hold back, junior brother’s persona is too fragrant.”
Jiang Xuan looked at Lin Zimao who was standing on the stage calmly dealing with the host at this time, when he is at home, he always lazily lying on the sofa, sometimes playing with Jiaoyan for a while, sometimes browsing the communicator, the most tangled thing every day is to order takeaway, planet Feige always has a many kinds of takeaway, after finally finding a suitable store, he will be entangled in how to make up the order to get the full discount.
At this time, Lin Zimao, who was standing on the stage, was glowing and confident, where is the appearance of acting like a baby when he’s a little sick.
But this kind of Lin Zimao, Jiang Xuan didn’t hate it, even his heart feels like it’s bursting, there are many questions he want to ask him.
At this time, the host asked the most acute question that everyone is most concerned about: “Which place do you think you can get in this competition?”
Lin Zimao laughed: “I’ll take the highest ranking.”
The host asked him again: “Can you continue to hold the record of one game in less than five minutes?”
From the corner of his eye, Lin Zimao glanced at Jiang Xuan who was standing aside, and said: “It depends on whether the opponent is good-looking or not, if they are good-looking, it may last a little longer, otherwise, it depends on the mood.”
There was applause from the audience, God damn it, if the opponent looks good, just play longer, and vice versa, if they doesn’t look good, how early do you think it is!
All the students who support Lin Zimao are willing to applaud him for his statement, with the calmest attitude, saying the most sexy words, it is really explosive!
Since Lin Zimao made his mark2嶄露頭角 (zhǎn lù tóu jiǎo): to reveal outstanding talent (idiom); (of talent) to come to the fore; to stand out as conspicuously brilliant; (of young people) cut/make a brilliant/conspicuous/splendid figure; come to/into pro-minence; begin to show one’s brilliant talents; display remarkable abilities or talents. in the first game, he has not spoken publicly on the school forum or anywhere, today, in the first interview in the eighth-finals, as soon as he opened his mouth, the words he said is sensational3語不驚人死不休 (yǔ bù jīng rèn sǐ bù xiū): The language is not amazing; to describe writing poems or articles and striving to find amazing sentences. Now when it is used orally, because this sentence is misinterpreted by many people or misled by bad media, sometimes it also has the meaning of sensationalism., it really had no official taste at all, it makes the audience to be fired up4熱血沸騰 (rè xuè fèi téng): to be fired up (idiom); to have one’s blood racing; with heart afire; boiling over.! They like players who can create atmosphere, really know how to mobilize people’s emotions!
This is what a high-spirited and vigorous5意氣風發 (yì qì fēng fā): high-spirited; full of mettle; to be high-spirited and vigorous; be daring and energetic. eighteen-year-old boy looks like!
At this time, the students of the Combat Department who were sitting in the audience were about to be pissed off because of Lin Zimao, they all cursed in private: Lin Zimao, you can’t be too crazy, the big shots are all behind and haven’t come out yet! There will be time when you’re abused!
Lin Zimao succeeded in mobilizing a wave of hatred, someone immediately posted the video of his interview on the forum, and also gave him a more hateful title than Lin Zimao’s interview.
【Come and see, how many more rounds this shameless new student can stay in the mecha simulation cabin competition? Asking for the big shot of the Combat Department to slap his face on the spot!】
There are really many students from the Combat Department replying below.
1st Floor: Damn, it’s a little shameless.
2nd Floor: Is it a little? It’s a billion points!
3rd Floor: If it weren’t for the simulation cabin, with his thin frame, can he get this far? Real men use real mecha PK! @Lin Zimao
…
18th Floor: The building is crooked6歪個樓 (Wāi gè lóu): T/N: In the Internet, 歪樓 mainly refers to the shifting of comments from one topic to another in major forums. Crooked posts in online life refer to someone deliberately going off-topic in a reply on a forum and asking questions that seem to be related but unrelated to the original intention of the poster., I like his face very much, I might be seduced by him at a glance.
19th Floor: I also like it!
No matter how much malice or goodwill there is towards Lin Zimao in the forum, Lin Zimao is not interested in knowing now.
After the match, Wang Yi, Su Ran, and the others took him to eat hot pot7火鍋 (huǒguō): Hot pot. at the school food street, celebrating his successful advancement to the quarter-finals today!
They ate until after ten o’clock in the evening before dispersing.
Except for Wang Yi who can’t drink well and almost did a cartwheel in this street, everyone else was not drunk, Lin Zimao was also okay, he walked straight, didn’t seem to be drunk, so he took a taxi back by himself.
It was almost eleven o’clock when he got home, Lin Zimao didn’t call the robot CICI to turn on the lights, he was already used to the feeling of darkness when he was alone at home, since there was only one person anyway, it didn’t matter if he didn’t turn on the lights.
After entering the door, he fell down on the sofa.
However, today’s pillow seems a little different, a little hard, he moved his hand back and felt the warm skin.
Lin Zimao was half awake, and sat up at once.
Only at this moment did he remember that he was not living alone now.
What he just touched seems to be Jiang Xuan’s thigh!
Immediately call the household robot CICI to turn on the lights.
Sure enough, Lin Zimao saw Jiang Xuan sitting next to him, he is wearing a pair of casual shorts, it’s rare to see him showing his legs, it doesn’t fit his aloof style.
The two were still very close, Lin Zimao pressed his temple: “Why are you sitting in the hall without turning on the lights?”
Jiang Xuan didn’t answer but frowned, and asked Lin Zimao: “Have you been drinking?”
Lin Zimao leaned to the other end of the sofa and grabbed a pillow to cushion the side of his face: “Um, my classmates celebrated my win, so we drank a little.”
Jiang Xuan wanted to say that no matter how young he is, he can’t indulge in recklessness, but his words changed: “I’ll get you hangover pills.”
Lin Zimao hummed, Jiaoyan came over and stretched in front of Lin Zimao, he stretched out his hand to pinch the tip of its high tail, Jiaoyan flicked the big furry tail, then rested its front paws on the edge of the sofa and sniffed Lin Zimao’s face, Lin Zimao blew alcohol on it, Jiaoyan snorted and meowed in disgust, and left.
Jiang Xuan took Lin Zimao’s cat teasing process into his eyes.
He came over with a glass of water and hangover pills, and couldn’t help but say: “Childish.”
Lin Zimao raised his eyes to look at Jiang Xuan, got up, took the hangover pill, and then drank half a glass of water, moistened his throat, and then said: “From now on, Senior Jiang Xuan is forbidden to touch Jiaoyan’s tail.”
Jiang Xuan: “…” He felt that Lin Zimao knew something, so he changed the subject calmly, “It’s late, don’t sleep on the sofa.”
Lin Zimao was amused by his behavior and lay back on the pillow: “Lie down for a while and go upstairs to sleep.”
Jiang Xuan couldn’t help it, he also afraid that he would fall asleep in the living room and get sick tomorrow, and he would have to trouble himself, so he had to stay in the living room, drawing pictures on his computer screen, while Jiaoyan ran away somewhere.
Hangover pills do not work immediately, it takes half an hour to an hour to have an effect.
Jiang Xuan sat across from him, Lin Zimao admired him drawing earnestly, a model of a mecha hand gradually formed between his fingers, Lin Zimao’s mind is full of thoughts about how flexible his fingers really are.
Jiang Xuan was stared at by Lin Zimao for a long time, it’s not that he’s not unaware, his fingers paused slightly: “Congratulations on your advancement.”
Lin Zimao softly said: “Thank you.”
Jiang Xian’s fingertips slid and continued to draw the outline of his mecha diagram, there are many questions he had been pressing in his heart all night, in the end, he didn’t ask.
Lin Zimao was interested in watching him draw at first, but he fell asleep while watching him.
When Jiang Xuan raised his head again, Jiaoyan is already at Lin Zimao’s feet, this time he didn’t mind that its master is reek of alcohol.
The indoor temperature was a little low, so Jiang Xian raised the temperature, and took a thin blanket from the storage room and gently covered Lin Zimao.
It was the first time he saw Lin Zimao sleeping, very quiet and well-behaved.
He was radiant on stage today, completely different8截然不同 (jié rán bù tóng): to be completely different; to be poles apart; as different as black and white/chalk and cheese; Describes that two things have nothing in common. from now, Jiang Xuan didn’t know which one was Lin Zimao’s true appearance, he put away his drawing interface, put on his earphones, and played on the school’s official website, where all the competitions of the top sixteen contestants were compiled, Jiang Xuan didn’t have to look for it, and it saved a lot of trouble.
He opened the interface of Lin Zimao’s match compilation and clicked on the video of the first match.
When Lin Zimao woke up again, the sky was already shining, Jiaoyan pressed the blanket at his feet, and when he moved, Jiaoyan woke up.
At this time, Jiang Xuan was no longer on the sofa opposite him, and the living room was very quiet.
The sun had not yet fully lit up in the morning, and it was Lin Zimao’s favorite egg yellow color.
He stood in front of the window and had a big stretch, while Jiaoyan did a cat-style stretch beside him, without looking at the shape of its belly, it is quite slender, a handsome boy, the kind that can be mated.
He went upstairs to wash up and went downstairs, Jiang Xuan was already running.
Lin Zimao went to the exercise room, asked him what to eat for breakfast?
Jiang Xuan said he wanted to eat pan-fried buns9煎包 (jiān bāo): Pan-fried buns. .
Lin Zimao nodded, pan-fried buns are also delicious, after placing an order, he also ordered soy milk for the two of them.
Breakfast together every day seems to have become a quiet agreement between them, whoever wakes up early cooks or orders takeaway.
Jiang Xuan occasionally cooks, frying an egg fried on both sides, making a simple sandwich is still possible, provided that it is a weekend.
Lin Zimao has eaten it twice and thinks he can continue to eat it.
After breakfast, the two went out one after another.
Lin Zimao has a class at eight this morning, he has to wait for the bus at seven thirty.
Jiang Xuan also started his own car after he got in the car, and saw Lin Zimao being squeezed aside, his face still had an expression of lovelessness, full of helplessness, he couldn’t help but hook the corners of his mouth, he was in a particularly good mood at this time of day, everyday.
Jiang Xian’s good mood was maintained until he finished his afternoon class.
Sometimes when people pay attention to something, they will find that there are many people and things related to it around them.
He observed for a day and found that many students in the class were also paying attention to the simulation cabin competition of the first-year students, they also made an appointment to watch it at the venue at seven o’clock in the evening, not only that, some of them even went there specially for Lin Zimao.
Ji Chen didn’t look for Jiang Xuan to watch the match today, this guy is a playboy, Jiang Xuan thought maybe he is not interested in Lin Zimao anymore.
A classmate asked Jiang Xuan if he would go to the competition, but another student said, Jiang Xuan is definitely not interested in the competition, he still has to prepare for this year’s mecha design competition, and has to go to the laboratory every day.
Jiang Xuan’s professional ability is excellent, was favored by his mentor when he was in first-year, he often disappears after class, there’s nothing wrong with his classmates saying so.
They all said everything Jiang Xuan could and couldn’t say, Jiang Xuan left after saying not going.
After leaving the classroom building, Jiang Xuan did not go to the laboratory, he didn’t have any new design ideas for the time being, and he does not want to go today.
His eyes fell on the building where the simulation competition was, he returned to his car, Lin Zimao had a match today.
Today’s competition venue is more lively than yesterday.
Yesterday was the eighth-finals, the venues are open from morning until evening.
Today is the quarter-finals, two matches in the morning and two matches in the afternoon.
Given that Lin Zimao is currently the most popular, his match is scheduled for seven o’clock in the evening, the main reason is that his game time is the shortest, other people’s game time is counted by ‘hours’, but he is counted by ‘minutes’, so he had to be scheduled at the last game, which happens to be at seven o’clock in the evening, the students have time to come and watch the game, won’t delay them going to the library or classroom for evening self-study.
As long as tonight’s game wins, Lin Zimao will go straight to the semi-finals, that is, the battle of the top four.
There is another reason for his high popularity tonight, in this round, he met Chen Song, who was also a student of the Combat Department and was admitted to the academy as the second place.
Backstage preparation time.
Lin Zimao was bored in class today, so he downloaded a Sudoku, and now he is filling in the numbers on the grid, as if he didn’t care about Chen Song who was sitting on the other side.
In fact, Lin Zimao had been keeping a low profile before yesterday, his so-called high profile was all set off by his peers.
Chen Song is not one of those guys who makes a fuss, he is too lazy to do those boring things.
However, he has been paying attention to Lin Zimao, and has studied his match videos over and over again, his rules are no rules.
Even Jiang Man said he couldn’t quite see through it, he sat there thinking, does Lin Zimao really have no weaknesses?
It seems interesting to break his record of ending a match in five minutes.
Chen Song doesn’t seem to realize that he has already fallen into the strange circle called ‘Lin Zimao’, he forgot about winning against Lin Zimao, but set his goal to lengthen the match time with Lin Zimao.
Lin Zimao single-handedly changed the direction of the competition.
Take the first place? No, no, no, our goal is to break the five-minute curse.
The match begins and the host calls them both to the stage.
Lin Zimao put away the thin communicator, the host invited Chen Song into the simulation cabin first, he stood at the back and glanced at the audience, his eyesight has always been good, and he seemed to see someone wearing a mask at the back, who looked a bit like someone.
There was light in his eyes instantly, the competition seemed to be interesting again.
At that time, the host introduced him and asked him to come out.
The host asked: “Zimao looks a little more excited today than yesterday?”
Lin Zimao nodded: “Not bad.”
The host asked again: “Is there anything happy to share with us?”
Lin Zimao blinked and said in a good mood: “No.”
When the host couldn’t ask anything, he let him into the simulator.
Someone was recognized while parking the car just now.
That person’s name is Jiang Man, his cousin, a first-year new student in the Combat Department.
Jiang Man: “Brother Xuan! How come you are here? Are you also coming to watch the competition?”
Jiang Xuan said very coldly: “No, I have business along the way, I was just leaving, what competition are you watching?”
Jiang Man said: “Simulation cabin competition, today is Chen Song’s match, if you are free, let’s watch the match together, and help me as a reference, it’s possible that Chan Song’s opponent today will be my next opponent.”
Jiang Xuan pretended to hesitate: “Okay.”
Then he ‘appeared’ in the auditorium, and listened to his brother constantly chatting with him, which was a little annoying.
Just want to watch the competition quietly, why is it so difficult.
Competition Start.
The mecha figures of Lin Zimao and Chen Song appeared on the big screen one after another.
Lin Zimao knows Shen Youhui’s style of play, of course, he also watched Chen Song’s match video, his style of play is different from the previous contestants, Chen Song will change different types of mecha during the competition, he liked to use assault mecha, the way is relatively wild, but Lin Zimao is not too worried.
Because he also changed his mecha today.
The audience saw Lin Zimao’s mecha, my mom, he changed the mecha again! This time it’s another series!
The model is assault type D1234, an old-fashioned mecha, which was popular ten years ago, and was later eliminated by other new models.
Chen Song also saw the D1234 taken by Lin Zimao, there is no doubt that he is good at assault mecha, but he couldn’t think what characteristics the D1234 had?
He started sweating on his forehead.
Jiang Man in the audience was also asking Jiang Xuan at this time: “Brother Xuan, do you know the characteristics of D1234?”
Jiang Xuan clasped his hands tightly and said the biggest characteristic of D1234: “Cute.”
Jiang Man looked at him with the expression of an old man looking at the communicator: “…” Are you kidding me?
