“Thank god nothing happened, if something really did it would’ve been too late. All of you professional players are most afraid of having some scandals and still wouldn’t be more careful! Mo Huaifeng! Damn it you hung up on me again!”

…

Recuperating at the base for several days, Ji Zhiyao ate and slept when he should, and even played ranked games with Mo Huaifeng at a set time everyday. Some days they would even invite YiMao and play as three, those days were really pleasant.

These few days when he’d been going on Weibo, there wasn’t even a single word about him in posts about the Weibo Celebrity Gathering. The Weibo account with username “NanNan-chan” had for some reason, gotten reported and could not be found anymore.

Ji Zhiyao knew that this was probably the doing of his Captain. Hence on that day itself, he even saluted Mo Huaifeng with his glances of utmost worship, leading to Mo Huaifeng almost dropping a slap on his face.

Several days passed just like this and the 20th of the lunar twelfth month arrived.

On this day, Ji Zhiyao woke up really early, packed his luggage and carried his luggage case downstairs. With a sweeping glance, he realized that his Captain who should still be in bed at this time, was actually up and was seated on the sofa, looking at him with keen eyes.

Ji Zhiyao was surprised. “Captain, why are you up so early?”

Mo Huaifeng rubbed his eyes and pushed the little luggage bag by his feet, replying succinctly, “I’m going home, I’ll give you a ride too.”

Ji Zhiyao made a “huh” sound and went forward. “Why did I not hear you mention it earlier?”

“What could be done if I had mentioned it earlier? You’ll send me?”

“… I can send you with my eyes.”

“Save it.”

Ji Zhiyao smacked his lips a little regretfully, then followed behind Mo Huaifeng to change his shoes and leave the house.

The car was already in front of the door, Mo Huaifeng placed both their luggage bags into the boot, then said, “Get in.”

“Okay.” Ji Zhiyao sat himself into the car, just as he had buckled on his seat belt, he suddenly remembered. “Captain, is my home and yours in the same direction?”

Mo Huaifeng had also gotten on. He reached out to close the door, his tone neutral as he replied, “It’s not, get out.”

Yet Ji Zhiyao upon his words, silently tightened his arms around his seatbelt and looked outside, pretending like nothing had happened as he said, “Central Section, First Ring Road, Ling Shan Apartment. Thanks Captain.”

Mo Huaifeng glanced at him, the corner of lips curving up.

The weather was too cold and the traffic conditions weren’t the best, the car drove for a whole two hours before arriving at Ling Shan Apartment.

Ji Zhiyao unbuckled his seatbelt and got out, realizing that Mo Huaifeng also gotten off with him and helped him to bring his luggage bag down from the car.

Ji Zhiyao looked at his Captain, instantly so touched that tears welled in his eyes. “Thanks Captain, you’re really sweet. Are the eyes of those girls out there all spoiled? His Captain was so great, yet no one is going after him?”

Mo Huaifeng snorted. “They would need to have the guts to do so.”

Ji Zhiyao then realized that he had accidentally let the thoughts in his heart slip out, and gave a small apologetic smile. “Then I shall go, Captain.”

“Mm.”

Ji Zhiyao dragged his own little luggage bag and entered the estate.

Ten minutes later, he pulled out his keys and opened the door of his house.

The door had just been pushed open by a small crack yet Ji Zhiyao already saw half a face quietly appearing in the crack and was shocked. “Ji Qingge, are you trying to scare me to death?”

Ji Qingge took two steps back to give Ji Zhiyao space to enter, while taking a bite of the apple in her hand, her cheeks bulging. “A quiet conscience sleeps in thunder my friend, what good things have you done behind my back this time?”

“Move aside.”

Ji Zhiyao dragged his luggage bag to a side, asking, “Where’s mum and dad?”

Ji Qingge continued crunching on her apple and replied, “Went to work, have to return, I heard mum and dad say, it seemed to be their turn to be on shift again during the new year celebrations.”

Basically every year was like this, Ji Zhiyao was already used to it. He walked into the kitchen to pour himself a glass of water, the moment he turned back he realized that Ji Qingge was like a little tail following behind his butt, thus could not help but ask with a raised eyebrow, “Are you done with your winter vacation homework? Why are you following me?”

It would’ve been fine if he hadn’t mentioned it, the moment he mentioned winter vacation homework, Ji Qingge’s eyes almost rolled towards the sky. She said, looking like she barely wanted to live, “You should really take a look at that pile of papers, it’s thicker than your arm. I suspect the only reason our school was able to spot the correct questions was because they give us a lot of papers to do.”

“Ji Qingge are you asking for a beating? Thicker than whose arm?”

“Yours, it’s yours.”

Ji Zhiyao lifted his hand, pretending as if he wanted to hit her, Ji Qingge dodged grinningly, asking,”How are you back so early, the comment section of your Weibo account was a land of wailing of despair, claiming that Mix battleteam was abusing you, I thought you would be at the base training till New Year’s Eve.”

“Don’t listen to their nonsense. The internal part of our battleteam goes on leave really only, it was only because I wasn’t in a hurry to come back.”

“Everyone else has gone home, why are you staying there?”

Ji Zhiyao pushed her forehead. “Slow sparrow makes an early start, train for a few more days, in case your brother takes the blame for making mistakes the moment he goes on.”

Hearing that, Ji Qingge asked softly, “Then are you happy at the battleteam?”

Ji Zhiyao realized that although this foolish girl’s expression was fierce, the worry in her eyes could not be concealed. He was delighted. “Don’t you worry, just focus on preparing for your college entrance exams. Your brother is Mix’s new team dictator, I stand on top of the giant’s head, no one dares to bully me, don’t believe those rumors out there.”

Ji Qingge became displeased, pulling on a long face. “Who was worried? Get lost.”

Ji Zhiyao stretched out his hand, two fingers pinching her cheeks. “Heh, you’re rather unreasonable.”

Ji Qingge slapped his fingers away with an eye roll and prepared to return to her room to continue battling for three hundred round with her papers. Before she went upstairs, she ordered Ji Zhiyao, “I want to eat the fruit salad from the fourth level of Silver Throne and also the grilled oysters from Ah Xiang House. Since you’re back, help me buy them later.”

Ji Zhiyao was speechless, not understanding why every time he was home Ji Qingge would take him for a deliveryman. But in this boundless world, year 3 high school students had the most say. He couldn’t do anything with her, and could only nod cowardly, while adding tenderly, “I got it you pig.”

Ji Zhiyao tidied all the clothes that he had brought home, then sat by his bed and played with his phone for a while. When it was almost noon, he looked at the warm sunshine outside the window and figured that his parents probably wouldn’t be coming back again. Hence, he went to knock Ji Qingge’s door, leaning on the door frame as he asked, “Other than those you listed earlier, what else do you want to eat?”

Ji Qingge thought with her back against him for a moment, then replied very seriously, “You can just buy as you deem fit, get more, if not there isn’t enough to eat when I do my papers.”

What kind of habit was eating while doing papers? Could knowledge be swallowed together with food into the stomach?

He put on his jacket with a speechless expression, picked up his phone and left the house.

It was really too cold to be walking the whole way, Ji Zhiyao walked to the bus stop to wait, preparing to take a bus over, A few minutes later, the bus arrived.
