In the blink of an eye, it was another Friday.
After finishing her morning lessons, Shi Yao had her lunch at the canteen. Glancing at the blinding sunlight outside the window, she decided to head back home when the sun set.
Shortly after returning to her dormitory room, Shi Yao received a message on her phone.
It was from inviting her to a game.
Shi Yao wasn't sleepy, so she didn't have the urge to take an afternoon nap. Considering that there were still a few more hours before she had to return home, she accepted Mister Numbers' invitation, logged into the game, and entered the room he had shared with her.
Juice and Expert weren't around.
Shi Yao had been asking them about it in the group chat, but they said that they were busy revising and preparing for their exams.
So, after putting on her earphones, Shi Yao casually asked, "Are Juice and Expert still busy revising?"
Mister Numbers replied with an "Mm" before falling silent.
Even though the two of them were spending more time playing than before, Mister Numbers still didn't like to talk much.
However, compared to the past when Mister Numbers switched off his microphone, his microphone was now on whenever he played with Shi Yao. Even if the two of them weren't talking, Shi Yao could still hear the occasional faint sounds coming from his side through the earphones.
On the third round, a female voice suddenly spoke from Mister Numbers' side, "The fruits are here."
Mister Numbers didn't respond.
The female voice didn't respond either.
Even though it was through the phone, Shi Yao could still tell that the female voice belonged to a middle-aged man.
It was only because of the word "fruits" that Shi Yao asked, "Are you at home?"
: "Mm."
Shi Yao: "Was the person who brought the fruits to you earlier your mother?"
: "No, it's the auntie at home."
Shi Yao replied with an "Oh". Five seconds later, she suddenly realized something and asked, "Are you from Beijing?"
replied with an "Mm" before replying with a "Yes". While he was speaking, he even killed someone in the game.
Shi Yao replied casually, "What a coincidence. I'm from Beijing too, but my house is in the suburbs. What about you?"
gave her a rough location.
Shi Yao was astonished. Mister Numbers' house was actually in the same area as Lin Jiage's …
…
When it was around five o 'clock, Shi Yao finally logged off, and Lin Jiage stopped playing.
He closed his eyes and rested for a while. Then, he found his computer and continued with his unfinished project.
At around seven o 'clock, a maid called him for dinner. He put down his laptop, and when he headed down the stairs, he sent a message to Shi Yao: [Are you home yet?]
Shi Yao didn't respond to him.
He didn't mind either.
After dinner, Lin Jiage took a stroll in the courtyard. When he returned, he took out his phone and sent Shi Yao a WeChat message: [Are you done eating? Are you playing games? "
Shi Yao continued to ignore him.
Bored, he watched the television for a while longer before whipping out his phone and sending Shi Yao a WeChat message: [Call me when you're done with your work.]
There was still no reply from Shi Yao.
This time, Lin Jiage didn't do anything else to pass the time. Instead, he logged into the game, only to see that Shi Yao was actually online.
Then, he sent a message to Shi Yao in the game: [Pull me after this round.]
He didn't log out of the game. Instead, he waited until Shi Yao's game was over before he took the initiative to form a party with her.
After a long while, Shi Yao finally agreed to his request. As he put on his earphones, he replied with a "Hello".
Right after he said those words, the microphone icon next to Shi Yao's name lit up, and a male voice sounded in his ears, "Hello."
