Chapter 149: 149 Revealed!

Under the hazy video effect, the girl’s head was slightly tilted as she looked towards the camera.

Her peach blossom eyes were luminous and sparkling, seductive and full of emotion.

A well-behaved hat, uniform, and short skirt, but further down...

Jiang Xuan could discern a hint of not-so-innocent thoughts...

This was also the first time he had seen Xia Ye in a short skirt...

He quietly picked up his cup and took a sip of water, seemingly trying to suppress something.

But then, Jiang Yunyang beside him nudged his wrist, "Uncle, quick, look at what’s coming next! The best part is coming up!"

Reason told Jiang Xuan he shouldn’t keep watching, but he still moved his gaze back to the screen.

In the video, Xia Ye gestured with her finger towards the camera, appearing casual, yet under the special effect of pink petals and Jiang Xuan’s high-level filter, it took on a completely different meaning.

The background voiceover started up at just the right moment.

’Master, come home with me~’

The last thread of Jiang Xuan’s self-control snapped...

He stood up and left without a word.

Jiang He looked up, "Fourth brother, are you off to the company already? Won’t you stay a bit longer..."

Hmm?

Jiang He watched his fourth brother’s retreating figure with a bit of confusion.

Was it too hot in the room?

Why was his fourth brother’s neck so red??

Jiang Yunzhou had long gone to school, yet Xia Ye, who usually arrived just in time for the morning study, was not in a hurry and settled herself in the dining room to have breakfast.

Thinking back to her wearing a short skirt last night, she still felt a bit goosebumpy, relieved that no one else had seen!!

She noticed that there was a plate of fried chicken on the breakfast table, which is not a usual part of the Xia Family’s morning meals.

Next to it was a bowl of pre-mixed honey mustard sauce.

Seeing Xia Ye’s gaze, Mrs. Wu deliberately pushed the fried chicken closer to her.

She had specifically ordered the kitchen staff to make it.

Ever since the second Miss returned, the general manager Jiang had visited their home twice, and the Jiang Family’s Young Master had been there twice as well, and without exception, both were there to see the second Miss.

Mrs. Wu had seen the writing on the wall; now in the Xia Family, the second Miss was everyone’s darling.

She hated herself for her shortsightedness, having backed the wrong horse and wasted her affection on the eldest Miss, and for having offended the second Miss several times as a result.

Last night, she joined others in praising how nice the second Miss looked in the skirt, but the second Miss treated her like air, which indeed troubled her for the whole night.

She had to start making amends with the second Miss quickly; otherwise, what good days would she have left in the Xia Family?

With a smile plastered on her face, she bent over and said, "Second Miss, this is... specially made by the kitchen for you."

Xia Ye looked at the plate of fried chicken for a while and chuckled lightly, "Mrs. Wu, didn’t you say that the kitchen doesn’t make such greasy food in the morning?"

Mrs. Wu was taken aback, suddenly recalling that this was exactly what she had said when the second Miss expressed a desire for chicken in the morning a while back...

With an expression of extreme embarrassment, Mrs. Wu bit her lip and murmured softly, "I was wrong before, Second Miss. Please don’t take it to heart that I specially instructed the kitchen to make fried chicken for you this early in the morning..."

She didn’t know that the old ancestor was quite vengeful~

Especially when it came to food!

At noon, the school’s announcement system broadcasted a high-scoring essay from Tian Ye’s recent mock exam.

The announcer was a junior girl, clear and articulate, full of emotion.

Through her reading of this essay, it seemed apparent that she must have a crush on Tian Ye!

Tian Ye got 57 points on his second mock exam composition, out of a full score of 60—only three points deducted, which was quite high.

Graceful writing, clear purpose, clever construction, and closely adhering to the theme.

The language department specifically asked the broadcast station to read it as an exemplar, so other students could take advantage of the lunch break to learn how to write a high-scoring composition.

Tang Tianjiao frowned slightly, arms crossed, listening from the beginning to the end. As the announcer finished reading, she nudged Xia Ye, "What do you think?"

Xia Ye was nonchalant, "Honestly, pretty average."

Tang Tianjiao: "That’s what I think too!"

Xia Ye asked her, "How many points did you get on your last essay?"

Tang Tianjiao’s expression suddenly became elusive, "Twe... twenty-one points, what’s up, Brother Ye?"

Xia Ye: "..."

After a two-second silence, she forcefully changed the subject, "Is it really hard to score full points on a composition?"

Was it necessary to make such a fuss with a campus-wide broadcast for Tian Ye’s 57 points?

Tang Tianjiao: "Of course it’s hard! Our school hasn’t had a full-score composition in the college entrance exam for years, the highest was probably around 57!"

"I see," Xia Ye nodded thoughtfully.

Xia Xing had no announcements during the day, so he stayed at the club with his teammates for mock competition training.

When his teammate used Daji, Xia Xing remembered the video that little shortie shot for his sister yesterday.

His sister was really too cute, she deserved high-level attention!

He must keep a close eye on her!

During a break, Pang Shen appeared at the training room door, looking for Xia Xing.

Dressed in a black jacket with the buttons of his shirt beneath rebelliously open to his chest, his slightly curled medium-length hair casually tied back, a cigarette dangling from his lips—it was his usual style.

He walked up to Xia Xing, "So, did you leave a message for Night God for me yesterday?"

Xia Xing just remembered; he had forgotten about Night God ever since.

To avoid Pang Shen dawdling, he quickly raised his hand to signal, "I’ll send it now."

He opened the short video platform and searched for Night God’s account.

He discovered that just then, Night God had uploaded a new video.

This time, both Xia Xing and Pang Shen were very interested in the caption.

’Trying one-handed.’

Playing Honor of Kings with one hand?

He had heard of great players attempting it before, but it was really difficult, needing to control the direction with the thumb and index finger of one hand and the remaining three fingers for the skill buttons.

Just to not hold the team back was already quite an accomplishment.

This time Night God was using Zhong Kui.

Like Little Tiangao yesterday, he was also using the newest skin.

But this skin was highly sought after, so no wonder there was a collision.

Pang Shen sat next to Xia Xing, and the two analyzed the video.

One-handed play was indeed a lot slower than two hands, but Night God’s gameplay remained very smooth, especially when capturing targets, his hooks were sent with incredible precision.

As Xia Xing watched, he suddenly felt confused.

Something seemed off...

Why did it feel so familiar the more he watched?

There was a marksman next to Zhong Kui, and the two coordinated especially well.

Pang Shen pointed at the screen, "That marksman must be a pro, right? The play clearly looks very professional."

Following his words, Xia Xing also took a closer look at the marksman...

!!

This... isn’t this him???
