Chapter 818: The Allure of Stars
Chapter 818: The Allure of Stars
In language class, Winnie, who was sent to stand at the back of the classroom as punishment, discussed B-2 with me for a while, then she asked me if I wanted to go to the VIP building of Qing Zi Academy to see Ai Mi in the evening. Apparently, Ai Mi was preparing to participate in an LOL ranked game and she wanted the other 4 members of the professional team to being her to victory.
Of course, in Ai Mi’s words, she was “teaching you the right way to play the game”. Anyway, everyone was on Ai Mi’s payroll, so no one dared to express their dissatisfaction.
Ever since a professional team room was made in the VIP building, I’ve been in there a lot, but every time, I’ve only seen the players practice until they black out and I’ve never seen Ai Mi play any real games.
According to Winnie, Ai Mi’s gaming skills are quite poor, but she herself refuses to admit it. If I have the chance, I really want to check it out today.
“By the way, what level games are you guys going to play with her, silver or gold?”
“Oh please.” Winnie said to me in a lowered voice while the language teacher was writing on the board, “If we didn’t play with Miss Ai Mi, the 4 of us can play in diamond lobbies, but if we include Ai Mi, we can only play in bronze lobbies. After all, we have to make sure that Ai Mi doesn’t get killed even once.”
I spoke while leaning as close as possible against the back of the chair and pretended I was listening attentively so I wouldn’t get caught by Old Man Zhang.
“Will Ai Mi be satisfied with being in bronze the entire time?”
“There’s nothing I can do even if she’s not satisfied. If Captain Ren Peng was around, then we can just barely carry Ai Mi into silver, but now that school just started, the captain can’t spare any time right now.”
“My cousin is only awesome when playing games…” Xiao Qin murmured.
“It’s not awesome, it’s super awesome.” Winnie corrected Xiao Qin, “It’s a pity that we don’t have a full team. Captain Ren Peng isn’t the only one who’s unable to participate in tonight’s game, even the first team doesn’t have a full roster. I’m afraid we’ll have to borrow someone from the second team to help out tonight.”
“Golden Lightning’s second team?” I froze, “Isn’t the captain of the second team the trap-con Fan Chuan.”
“What con?” Winnie didn’t hear clearly.
“No, I mean, isn’t the captain of the second team the same Fan Chuan who didn’t beat you in the team hiring exams, but was still recruited by Captain Ren Peng.”
“Yeah, that’s him, we’re going to borrow him tonight to accompany Miss Ai Mi to play the game, I hope he can put in some effort…”
“Ye Lin, do you also want to stand with Xiong YaoYue as punishment?”
In the end, Old man Zhang still noticed us whispering to each other. His glare almost made me jump out of my chair.
“It’s not Ye Lin’s fault.” Winnie raised her hand to make an excuse for me, “It’s… because I’m on my period and I wanted to borrow a pad from Ye Lin…”
Hey, why would I carry around pads as a man? I’m grateful that you’re taking responsibility and trying to shift the blame to yourself, but can you use a different excuse?
Xiao Qin quickly pulled out a whole packet of pads from her bag and tossed it to Winnie like a volleyball, which she subconsciously caught.
“Te-, teacher.” Xiao Qin raised her hand while trembling, “Xiong YaoYue misspoke, she was borrowing pads from me. Can you not punish her by standing anymore since she’s not feeling well.”
I was slightly surprised: according to my observations, Xiao Qin’s menstrual cycle is usually between the 18th and 22nd of each month, but it was only the 4th today. Isn’t it too early to be carrying pads?
In order to satisfy the occasional needs of the girls in our class, or even the girls in other classes, the class leader would always carry around pads in her bag.
After Xiao Qin made the request to Old Man Zhang, she winked mischievously at me when she put her hand down, then it dawned on me: the reason that Xiao Qin packed so many pads in her bag, even more than the class leader, was to generously give them away when someone needed them, so that she could earn stars for her good deeds.
It looks like she really came to earn stars. All her actions and words are now based on whether or not she could earn stars.
Old Man Zhang really doubted whether the lively Winnie was on her period, but he was a male teacher and couldn’t really dig any deeper, so he knocked on the table and said:
“In that case, you go to the restroom first, then come back and sit down for the lesson.”
“Thank you teacher, I’ll be right back.” Winnie left the classroom happily while holding the bag of pads given to her by Xiao Qin. Based on her excitement, I’m afraid that she wasn’t going to the restroom, but was going to the shop to buy some snacks, then she will come back to her seat and play with her phone while eating them.
Seeing Winnie liberated, Eunuch Cao, who was punished along with Winnie, felt wrong. He covered his stomach and frowned, “Teacher Zhang, I’m also on my period…”
The class leader’s seat was very close to Eunuch Cao, so she gave him a hard glare and he kept quiet.
“(^_^^) Hehe…”After Winnie left, Xiao Qin looked at me with a smile on her face, “Ye Lin classmate, I helped Winnie escape from punishment, so I should be rewarded with a gold star.”
I thought for a moment and replied, “I can only give you a silver star. It didn’t help Winnie that much, and you should pay attention during class.”
Old Man Zhang gaze towards me warned me that I wasn’t really in a position to tell Xiao Qin that she should pay attention in class.
Luckily, this class ended quickly. Next, it was time for radio gymnastics, and I asked the habitually lazy Xiao Qin to participate as well.
“I’ll give you a silver star if you participate in radio gymnastics.”
“Will you give it every day?” Xiao Qin’s eyes sparkled with gold and silver stars.
“I’ll give it every day.” I was really putting out a lot in order to successfully implement the “sister discipline” plan. Anyway, it’s only one gold star a week, so even if she lasted for a year, she would only get around 50 gold stars, which is still very far away from 10,000 gold stars.
It looks like Xiao Qin was working hard in order to save up 10,000 gold stars and get back to being my girlfriend again.
She was in the girls’ group and imitated Xu Yan’s movements, the leader who was on the stage. Every time she did a twisting movement, she turned back to look at me bashfully.
When it was time for lunch, the two of us went to the cafeteria together.
Since yesterday was the first day of school, the cafeteria was packed to the brim with many curious first-year students and we couldn’t even get in even if we wanted to.
Today was different. After trying the chef’s handiwork in the cafeteria, the first-year freshmen were all scared witless and said they would never eat in the cafeteria again. All of them ran to the food street today to get better meals.
The cafeteria went back to normal, actually there were even fewer people than usual. Xiao Qin and I sat in a table for four, and no one else followed us (or perhaps they were afraid of me).
After carrying the meatless stir friend long beans with minced pork, as well as other dishes that didn’t live up to their name, I got ready to eat, but Xiao Qin asked if she could look at my phone.
“What do you want to see?”
Men were always sensitive about women looking through their phones, even if they weren’t hiding anything.
“Ye Lin classmate, I want to take a look at my star list. It’s like when my cousin plays online games, it’s boring if I can’t see my exp bar.”
I shrugged and took out my cell phone, then opened the wiz notes and moved my finger to hover over ‘Xiao Qin’s star list’…
Wait, what is this? Why is there a document called ‘My nudes’ in our group? The author was Xiao Qin and it looks like it was uploaded last night… Xiao Qin, what did you do? What did you upload in our group while you were uploading chapter 5 of ‘Cthulhu also wants love’?
Xiao Qin looked over at me across the table while squirming with flushed cheeks.
“Although, although I’m embarrassed, but I still couldn’t help but upload it. Because it doesn’t matter if Ye Lin classmate sees it, I would have to show you sooner or later….”
She said as drew small circles on the table with her finger.
Who wants to see your nude photos? The ‘sis disc’ group was made to correct your bad habits, not for you to share your nude photos! Don’t underestimate me, I absolutely won’t look at these photos and will delete it straight away.
Eh, eh eh eh eh eh eh eh…
My hand shook. My hand accidentally shook and opened the file. It wasn’t my intention and I wasn’t looking forward to seeing nude photos of my childhood friend! I swear I didn’t open it on purpose. If I’m lying, then Kyle will get run over by a road roller.
Ah, I wasn’t able to close my eyes in time and I saw it! A skin-colored image entered my eyes and she really wasn’t wearing clothes! Xiao Qin, who wasn’t wearing any clothes, had a smile on her face as she laid languidly on the bed and her perfect skin looked as soft as a baby’s…
No shit, this is just a baby picture! It was a picture of Xiao Qin in her crib before she reached one years old.
“Nice.” I feigned anger and slapped the table, “How dare you trick me? Do you know how much of a shock you gave me?”
Xiao Qin’s face was still red as she muttered: “Now you’ve seen my nude photo, I’m so embarrassed.” She said as she covered her face.
“A baby picture doesn’t count as a nude photo.” I said angrily, “Don’t put any more clickbait photos in the group.”
“Huh.” Xiao Qin removed her hands from her face, “So you mean you would like it if it wasn’t a clickbait picture?”
“…..”
“I would take that silence as consent. Then starting from tonight, I’ll upload photos you like. Can you treat it as a good deed and reward me with stars?”
“…..”
“For example, a silver star for revealing two areas, a gold star for revealing three areas…”
“Shut up, don’t try to trade nude pictures for stars.” I poked Xiao Qin’s plate, “The ‘sis disc’ plan was made to turn you into a normal person, don’t twist it in a bad direction.”
My voice was a bit loud because of my emotions. The students, who were slowly filling up the cafeteria, heard me shouting the word ‘nude pictures’ at Xiao Qin, who was on the candidate list for prettiest girl in school, and they began to discuss among themselves in private.
“It looks like Ye Lin took nude photos of Ren XiaoQin, what a sick bastard.”
“Is Xiao Qin really following behind Ye Lin every day voluntarily? What if she was being threatened?”
“Nobody stop me. I’m going to save the pitiful Xiao Qin from Ye Lin’s evil clutches.”
