Don’t Covet the Beautiful System!! - Chapter 101

Xie Yuchi, who was about to get up and leave his seat, stopped his movements and got straight to the point: “Okay, which event do you plan to participate in? Or more than one?”

“Two.” Pei Qingyuan said calmly, “The humanoid team in the football event and the competition involving bionic materials in the life event, so I thought of inviting you.”

Then Ji Tong watched helplessly as the host chatted with Xie Yuchi about professional matters.

No, he hasn’t figured out what happened yet.

Why does the host seem to have fully adapted?

Sensing Ji Tong’s blank gaze, Pei Qingyuan explained to him in his heart: “I asked senior Qiao in advance who had invited him but failed. I wanted to find out what he valued so that he could make preparations in advance. The conclusion at that time It’s because they don’t see any commonality, they each have their own strengths.”

“Thinking about it now, these captains may all be single. Senior Qiao said that they are all focused on the game, very hard.”

“But why can’t you be single?”

“have no idea.”

Although Xie Yuchi always had a cold face, unlike Pei Qingyuan, he talked a lot.

After Pei Qingyuan asked about his thoughts on the competition, Xie Yuchi immediately started talking, as if holding back for a long time.

Although the image of the cold-faced chatter was rather weird, the table finally didn’t look like it was going to fight, and the waiter quickly saw the opportunity and ran over to deliver the menu.

Ji Tong listened blankly to the conversation between the host and Xie Yuchi, his curiosity grew stronger, and he decided to use his own advantages to get closer to this strange senior.

Pei Qingyuan brought a computer to record the various ideas that came up during the meeting and communication, and he could also show Xie and Chi Kan some of the preparations he had made before.

After a topic ended, Pei Qingyuan revised his original thoughts on the computer, intending to let Xie Yuchi watch it later, Xie Yuchi, who had been talking for ten minutes without stopping, finally took a breath, and waited expressionlessly for the soda he ordered just now to be delivered come up.

He met another junior with shining eyes: “Senior Xie, is your sweater a joint model of a foreign trendy brand and a comic book?”

Xie Yuchi was stunned: “You know?”

Ji Tong nodded: “Is it reversible? One side is a print of black and white comics, and the other side is a large piece of orange with a line of inconspicuous book titles, imitating the binding of that comic when it was first published. I haven’t read the book, but Heard about the design.”

Of course he didn’t know, but secretly used the search function in his mind.

The subject matter of this comic is relatively small, so this joint sweater is not very well-known, and the comic itself has a group of loyal fans, Xie Yuchi obviously is, and it is estimated that this can be used to start a conversation with him.

Hearing what he said, Xie Yuchi’s eyes really softened: “That manga is pretty good, you can read it when you have time.”

“Yes.” Ji Tong responded, “This sweater is also very cool.”

“I bought several collections. If you read the comics later, if you like them, I will give you one.” Xie Yuchi started chattering again, “I suggest you start reading the prequel of the fourth book, the story will be clearer…”

In the enthusiasm of the senior, Ji Tong listened very carefully and nodded frequently.

Pei Qingyuan stopped typing and looked over silently.

The waiter came over with three cups of drinks, coffee, soda, and orange juice, and put them in front of the guests one by one.

Xie Yuchi, who was wearing an orange sweater, was holding a transparent soda water, and with a cold face, he was intently chatting with the fair-skinned boy who was holding orange juice.

Very harmonious.

Also very eyesore.

The coffee cup collided with the cup holder calmly, making a soft noise, until Xie Yuchi sighed suddenly while talking.

“You will definitely like this set of comics…” He somehow remembered something, and his voice became gloomy, “You are the second person who recognized this sweater as soon as we met, but it’s a pity that I haven’t read the comics yet.”

Xie Yuchi’s eloquence in introducing the story was good, and Ji Tong was excited when he heard it, and asked casually, “Who is the first one?”

“It doesn’t matter.” Xie Yuchi sneered again, “He’s dead anyway.”

Ji Tong was taken aback.

He had never experienced this kind of dialogue, and after a brief moment of hesitation, he bowed his head anxiously to apologize: “I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have asked, sorry.”

Pei Qingyuan: …

He looked back, silently motioned to the waiter to bring the menu again.

From Xie Yuchi’s rejection of other single captains after his first captain went abroad, to his duplicity and sudden resentment, he has basically figured out the logic behind it.

Pei Qingyuan had a premonition that the chat content of this meeting would not be limited to the competition, nor would it end too soon.

He turned the menu to the dessert page, handed it to the two, and at the same time explained to Ji Tong in his heart: “It should not be dead in the traditional sense.”

Xie Yuchi was instantly amused by Ji Tong’s honest reaction, and his Bingshan face, which hadn’t changed the whole time, was briefly broken, and said with emotion: “It’s been a long time since I laughed, meeting you is indeed the right choice.”

“It’s not really dead, don’t worry about it, it’s…” He didn’t know how to describe it, so he couldn’t help asking, “Is this the first time you are in a relationship? Have you ever met a trash ex?”

Pei Qingyuan on the side responded for Ji Tong: “Yes.”

Restricted by Xie Yuchi’s weird team selection request, Ji Tong dared not refute, so he could only pretend to be a couple with the host.

“It’s good.” Xie Yuchi gave Pei Qingyuan a vague look, “Don’t be a scumbag.”

“…Um.”

There was an eerie silence for a while, and Ji Tong finally came to his senses.

Senior Xie seemed to have been hurt emotionally.

But in this way, shouldn’t it be because he doesn’t want to get along with a couple who show affection every day?

Xie Yuchi took the initiative and said, “Are you surprised by my initial reaction, why did you stop talking if you two were not a couple?”

Ji Tong nodded immediately: “Yes.”

The dessert was served in time, and Pei Qingyuan was already ready to listen to gossip.

“You probably haven’t had that kind of experience yet.” Xie Yuchi thought about it, and described with some emotion, “The whole team has to work hard for the game for a whole year. It’s a very close atmosphere.”

Following his words, Ji Tong couldn’t help but think of the year when he accompanied the host through the third year of high school, and couldn’t help nodding, feeling deeply.

But Xie Yuchi’s next sentence made him freeze.

“It’s easy to fall in love with each other for a long time.” He said coldly, “especially when the other party is very proactive.”

Ji Tong: …

He felt that the host around him seemed to be glancing at him.

Pei Qingyuan succinctly agreed: “That’s right.”

“Really? You think so too?” Xie Yu came late, “I thought we were alike.”

He continued to chatter blankly: “I never thought that I would fall in love with boys. I joined the team in my freshman year because I wanted to participate in the competition and win the championship. At that time, I only thought that the captain was very smart and attractive. I I naturally admire people with high IQs.”

“And I have a high EQ, and I always praise people with sincerity. Who doesn’t like to be praised? He also likes the same cartoon as I do, and has the same hobbies. He always takes me to eat delicious food around the school, and gives me gifts from time to time. Some small gifts, some dolls caught in a claw machine, some succulent potted plants raised by myself.”

Ji Tong’s fingers holding the glass began to tremble.

Pei Qingyuan silently glanced at the young man beside him who lowered his head in shame.

Xie Yuchi condemned with a straight face: “At that time, my bedroom was full of these things. I looked at them every day, and then thought of the moment when the other party was very smart and shining. Who can not be moved? Asking is a friend, and ordinary friends really love each other. Is this the case? He has no partner, and he treats other friends like this at all. “

“Probably not.” Pei Qingyuan answered calmly.

“That’s right, he was the one who started it first, and it ended up being me chasing someone.” Xie Yuchi continued to complain, “It’s not a big deal, it doesn’t matter who chases who, as long as we can get along well.”

“Winning two championships in a row, I was already planning to start a business together in the future, but suddenly began to alienate me, saying that there is no future between the two boys, and showing me some love stories that ended in dismal.”

This is a familiar operation.

Pei Qingyuan coughed lightly.

Surrounded by guilty conscience, Ji Tong covered half of his face with his hands, trying to hypnotize himself, pretending that he was just a simulated wax figure that could not understand human language.

“It was only later that I found out that he was going abroad soon. I was kept in the dark about such an important matter.”

Having said that, Xie Yuchi sighed and said angrily, “What a scumbag.”

The wax figure Ji Tong felt that he had been severely scolded.

He tried to comfort the miserable senior in front of him, and pushed the dessert pudding over in a small porcelain plate: “Don’t be sad, senior, everything is over, and you will meet better people in the future.”

“I’m not sad.” Xie Yuchi said with a cold expression, “I just don’t want to laugh anymore.”

Ji Tong stopped his movements stiffly.

…or he’d really be turned into a wax figure.

It’s over.

He had already begun to imagine that the host would never laugh again.

Xie Yuchi concluded his speech while eating pudding: “So back to the original question, as an intellectual with a relatively high moral bottom line, in my eyes, a person with a partner is just a piece of human-shaped wood, which has lost the sense of being a human being. charm.”

“I plan to die alone, and I am afraid that rationality will not be able to overcome instinct, so it is most suitable to cooperate with a couple. I am in the last year of undergraduate, and I will fight with you.”

Before continuing to talk about business, he said sincerely: “I appreciate you two very much. We had a very pleasant chat today. I hope that the future cooperation will be just as pleasant.”

Pei Qingyuan also expressed his gratitude from the bottom of his heart: “Me too, thank you senior.”

Ji Tong heard a ding-dong in despair.

The initial task of the relationship line [promoting the host and Xie Yuchi to meet and appreciate each other] has been completed.

It’s just that there is obviously something wrong with mutual appreciation.

With discussions about the details of the robot competition ringing in his ears, Ji Tong stared blankly for a while, and it took him a long time to muster up the courage to look at the mission panel.

The initial mission is completed, will the next mission appear?

This initial task is only allowed to succeed, not to fail, so even if it is completed, there is no reward. Under Ji Tong’s gaze and confirmation, the task completion interface disappears, and it seems that new text content will appear.

It seems that the next stage of the emotional line task will start directly.

Ji Tong nervously looked at the loading prompt displayed in the center of the interface.

The little circular circle kept spinning, and he waited, holding his breath.

Then until he was almost suffocated, the small circle was still spinning.

Ji Tong took a deep breath, poked the screen with his hand, and looked at the unresponsive task panel in shock.

…the task panel is actually stuck.
