Book 3: Glory on the Other Side

Chapter 34

There were several times Ai Qing wanted to go out and clear everything up.

Despite being so old, she was inexperienced dealing with men like this, especially when it was forced upon her.  It wasn’t a simple thing to forget the anger she felt for him.  For the whole night, her brain played fragments of their time together.  Sometimes she was so angry that she wanted to cry.  But it didn’t take long before her feelings softened……

Finally, she fell into a half slumber just as day broke.

She saw pieces of different dreams before feeling someone press down on her body in her dream-- --

“I’m so sleepy.”  Her sister complained in her ears.

She relaxed, but was too sleepy and too lazy to speak.

“I fought with Shen Zhe for the whole night.  Then I heard that something big had happened here, so I ran over here to take a look.  But you look more carefree than me.”

She kept listening.

“What’s wrong.  Did Solo reconcile with you?”  Her sister kept talking.

“How does it have anything to do with Solo……”  She finally spoke.

“Oh, so it has nothing to do with Solo…..Didn’t his daughter get taken away already? Didn’t he come talk to you?  How could he not come talk to you?  Isn’t the first love the most difficult one to forget?  There is no obstacle now and he still didn’t come back to you.  Ah.  Men are really fickle.”

“......”

“How about this, don’t work for SP any more.  You organize a new team.  Wu Bai definitely would follow you without a second thought.  I could sacrifice my beauty to fool Grunt to join.  We then recruit several players.”  Her sister spoke lightly.  She slid off of her and ducked into the blanket, using both her hands and feet to embrace Ai Qing.  “The more I talk about it, the more doable it sounds.  Don’t you think so?”

“......Why does everybody think SP is equivalent to Solo?”  Her sister’s words roused Ai Qing’s ire.

The day A team was founded, it wasn’t just Slide’s team, but also hers.

They were her brothers, her comrades.  How could they cast away each other?

If someone asked Han Shangyen to quit K&K and join SP, he would never give up those kids he had led either.

“But won’t your boyfriend be jealous?”

Ai Qing wanted to say something, but swallowed her words.  In the past twenty-five years, she got through everything depending on her friends. In the end, how could she throw away all her friends just for Dt?

Slide and All returned after they retired, Inin, Following, and Bug joined because of A team. And those substitute young players, the strength of their daily training was as intensive as the main team, but they basically had no chance to compete at all.  And Xiaomi, who took the initiative to withdraw to strengthen the team…...and Solo, ignoring all objections, forcefully organizing the A team.

All this trust from these people were all thrust upon her.

How could she say that, ah, I thought I would be happier if I left SP.  Anyway, I would have fame if I cared about fame and money if I cared about money.  Why shouldn’t I have a more carefree life?  Goodbye.  All my good friends?

……

The deeper Ai Qing thought about it, the angrier she got.

She pursed her lips, her chest tightened.  She really wanted to call Dt to tell him to forget about it.  We didn’t fit each other……

Her sister noticed that her mood had changed, she drilled into her embrace and spoke playfully.  “Ah, ah, my Gou Gou’s angry again.  I’m just kidding.  You always take things too seriously.  Were you taking it too seriously again last night?  That guy Wu Bai is so handsome.  It would be a pity to break up with him.  We don’t break up.  Good girl.”

While her sister was speaking, she also massaged Ai Qing’s chest to calm her down.  “How could you break up right after you just started.  Wouldn’t it mean that we’re too whimsical, right?  Poor Wu Bai.”

“......”  Ai Qing really wanted to ask her whether she was her sister or Wu Bai’s sister…...

“Let me tell you.  Don’t think I’m shallow just because I’m admiring how handsome he is. A  handsome man is very useful.  It would heavily influence the DNA of our next generation.  Our Gou Gou has fame and money already.  What will you pursue in the future?  Don’t you just want to have a beautiful child?  So I have looked over all the young men around you, only Wu Bai is the best.”

“......”

“But frankly speaking, I really don’t know what you two were fighting about.”  Ai Jing kept asking curiously,  “Your boyfriend’s personality is very weird.  He begged Grunt to ask me to come to comfort you.  But he just wouldn’t say why you two fought.  This boy…...how do you communicate with him usually?”

“......He doesn’t like to talk.”

Ai Jing whispered, “Then how do you deepen your relationship usually?  Do you two just kiss directly?”

“......”

She decided to not say a single word.

And went back to sleep.
