My Real-life Dating Sim Game - Chapter 92

[Eh, why so sudden, quack??] Yaya sucked in cold air. The duck fretted over the sudden command.

‘Is Jia panicking? Shouldn’t we use the gas when we arrive, though??’

[Use the gas now. If we use the gas later, other visitors near us might be affected. But if we use it now, no one will be affected aside from us.] Lai Jiayi scanned her surroundings and saw the street was quite empty.

Only a few people were standing on the glistening footpath. The footpath moved automatically. So, the pedestrian could stay still and got off when they wanted to.

Some pedestrians chose to use the flying tube crossing the sky. Others used their vehicle, but the number wasn’t a lot.

Even though it was the weekend, today is winter. Many people chose to stay indoors rather than going out. Even with advanced technology, going out when the snow piled up wasn’t that nice.

[Ah, so you want to use the gas now and let the gas take effect once we arrive, quack?] Yaya nodded. His eyes glistened. [That way, when we arrive, both of you will be under the dramatic gas effect, right, quack?]

[Yes, correct. So, release the gas now– ] Lai Jiayi abruptly paused. The girl looked to the right and scanned Zhao Yang’s ears.

‘Ah, he doesn’t wear those weird AirPods. Safe!’

[Okay, continue with the plan.] Lai Jiayi sighed in relief. The girl didn’t push her bike anymore and just stood still, following the moving footpath.

[Roger, quack.] Yaya slowly opened his mouth. He looked back to make sure Tianjin wasn’t looking at him. He then slowly coughed the dramatic gas in the form of a tiny ball.

Next, the duck threw the ball to the crystal footpath below Lai Jiayi’s feet, and a transparent, odorless gas seeped out.

The gas rose quickly, and it reached Lai Jiayi’s height real fast. In just a few seconds, the gas enveloped Lai Jiayi and Zhao Yang’s face.

Thankfully, the wind didn’t blow the gas away for a while. Only after a few seconds, the wind blew, pushing the gas away from the two.

But inhaling the gas in just a few seconds was enough to bring out the maximum effect of the gas. Thus, Lai Jiayi wasn’t worried.

[I’m done, quack. You and Zhao Yang have inhaled the gas, quack. It will show the symptoms once you arrive at the cafe, quack.] Yaya reported. The duck looked back once more to see Tianjin.

‘Ah, Tianjin isn’t looking this way. That’s a relief!’

[Good job. Now…I should talk.] Lai Jiayi inhaled deeply. The girl turned her head to the right. She immediately saw Zhao Yang next to her. Since the footpath wasn’t big enough, Zhao Yang stood quite close to Lai Jiayi’s bike.

This means his distance with the girl was less than a meter. Maybe half a meter or even less.

“U-uh, boss…” Lai Jiayi suddenly called out in a tender voice. The girl clenched her bike handle to suppress her phobia.

“Yes?” Zhao Yang looked to the left. He looked down at the girl who was looking up at him.

Lai Jiayi had to look up to speak when they’re standing side-by-side like now, since her height only reached Zhao Yang’s neck.

“A-ah…Zhao Yun…doesn’t come with you, b-boss?” Lai Jiayi pursed her lips. The girl put a smile outside, but inside, she was screaming.

‘Ahhhh, why the heck did I ask that?! Fck. What if Zhao Yang gets mad??’

Lai Jiayi felt like walking on a thin ice. The girl’s face paled real quick. She even put her right hand inside the pocket of her trousers and gripped the bead capsule tightly.

“Oh. He is playing with his grandparents, ” Zhao Yang answered shortly. The man’s expression softened when he mentioned Zhao Yun.

Lai Jiayi secretly sighed in relief.

‘It seems that Zhao Yun is still the best topic to talk about.’

“Ah, I-I thought he would come with you, too…” Lai Jiayi smiled. The girl’s eyes dimmed down a bit. “A pity…”

‘It’s sad I can’t see Zhao Yun. But, without Zhao Yun, I can talk heart-to-heart with this guy.’

“…you miss him?” Zhao Yang suddenly asked. The man had a serious expression on his face, looking as if he’s investigating the girl.

Lai Jiayi nodded. “Y-yes. It’s a bit lonely without him…” The girl smiled sheepishly. But then, her face changed.

A trace of worry flashed by. Lai Jiayi rushed to explain. “A-ah, but it’s not in a romantic way. I-I just miss him since he’s my student at the daycare!”

‘Can’t let Zhao Yang think that I’m a pedophile, right??’

Zhao Yang paused. The guy turned his head around and covered his mouth. One could see the corner of his lips were moving up a bit.

‘Is she still thinking about the pedophile case? To think I make her traumatized.’

Zhao Yang’s shoulder shook. He tried hard to control his uplifting lips.

‘Why is this girl so amusing? So weird.’

Zhao Yang coughed to ease his urge to laugh. He then looked at Lai Jiayi with his usual stoic face. “If you miss him, I can call him to join us. How is it?”

‘Though, I don’t really want that rascal to come here.’

Lai Jiayi’s eyes widened. She hurriedly shook her head. “N-no, it’s fine! L-let’s not disturb his family time.”

‘If Zhao Yun comes here, my plan will be ruined, ah!! Let’s not, okay??’

“Ah. Alright. Just the two of us then.” Zhao Yang nodded.

When he said the last part, his voice was a bit…rougher than usual.

But, Lai Jiayi couldn’t think about it since a notification suddenly sounded.
