Chapter 15: 015. My Wife is Here
015. My Wife is Here
May be the girls themself were too dirty, obviously the school idol said this sentence in a very serious tone, he did not even specifically say whom that sentence was for, but all of them had turned red-faced, their imagination running wild...At last, they could finally understand what kind of true 'color' this idol of theirs actually had. It's a "crazy evil charm aura" which could cause instant nosebleed for girls.
The girls hurriedly bowed their head and continued to eat, no longer dare to tease him.
The rest of the meal passed very enjoyably, however when they received their bill, the total unexpectedly reached 1200 yuan. To make Qin Yu paid this much amount by himself somehow felt wrong, after all, it was the first time Qin Yu had agreed to go out with them, so they did not want to leave a bad impression. In the end, each of them decided to pay 100 yuan, while the remaining would be covered by Qin Yu. Qin Yu also had no objections, all of them were still students, he felt no need to care so much about keeping his image.
Because of the rain, everyone wander around the scenic area, discussing where should they go next. The girls proposed going shopping downtown, it's on the subway line, so they didn't have to worry about the rain. Zhao Xibai, as Guo You's boyfriend, naturally would also accompany them.
"What about you?" Tong Xuan looked at the remaining three boys, her sight especially fell on He Jin, in her heart she was still holding a little hope that He Jin would choose to accompany her.
"I"m going back to school first," He Jin glanced at the GPS on his smart bracelet, "there is a bus stop nearby, I'll take the bus back."
Tong Xuan: "...."
Shang frowned: "It'll take at least one hour if you go back by bus, or do you want to take taxi together? "
He Jin shook his head and said: "No, it's fine. Later, if we have the opportunity, let's play together again," before walking away.
Looking at He Jin's back, Zhao Xibai said jokingly: "These days who still take the bus ah?"
Over the past decade, because of the continuous development of underground rail transit and the development of car industry, the slow and inflexible bus had long been left by people. Bus had almost become something that only the older generations would use, so hearing He Jin said he wanted to take the bus, not only Zhao Xibai, but most of them thought he was a bit odd.
Guo You: "He feels a bit withdrawn ah, even during this whole day today, I rarely hear him talk ..."
"I also have something to do, so I'm going first." Qin Yu, who seemed to have received some news from his smart bracelet, was also quick to say goodbye to them, heading on a different direction from He Jin.
"Eh wait, are you going to take a taxi? Give me a ride ah..." Shang waved his hand to the crowd, and chased after Qin Yu.
The remaining people looked at each other, until finally, the shy Xu Yu continued on their previous conversation: "It's not that he is withdrawn... Actually, I feel, both He Jin senior and Qin Yu have a similar personality, they are very indifferent..."
Tong Xuan bit his lip, wanted to say a few words to defend He Jin.
These people did not know, in fact, when He Jin first entered the students ' union, he looked like he always had a smile on his face. He was gentle and courteous to anyone, mature and had good behavior, never made people feel uncomfortable around him. That's why there were so many seniors who appreciated him, and had been trying to push him to be the student union's President. It's just... they didn't know since when, but He Jin suddenly changed. He did not want to be in charge, did not participate in collective activities, also slowly stopped answering their phone call. He became a bit introverted, and with time, more and more isolated from them...
"Xuan Jie, what are you doing there, let's go!" Guo You's voice interrupted Tong Xuan's thoughts.
"I'm coming ..." In the end, Tong Xuan did not say anything. They broke up already, what's the point!

He Jin stood alone by the bus stop, he just wanted to be alone right now.
After waiting for 10 minutes, he finally saw the "city tour bus". Nowadays, except for those buses operating at important sections of the urban area, this bus was the only other bus still running. Kun Lake was a famous attraction in the city, so of course, this road must be passed by a tour bus.
Because it wasn't a tourist season, there were not that many people in the bus. He Jin found a window seat to sit down on, then propped his chin on his hand, and looked at the moving scenery outside...
Not so different from the sudden bad weather before, He Jin's mood also suddenly darkened. His body was covered by a thin layer of sweat, probably a result of their running escapade from the rain before.
"Jin Ge, you also don't be too serious, real life is tiring enough, why not allow people to indulge in the virtual world?"
"You ah, don't be stuffy all day, have a little vitality, it's rare now that the temperature outside is not too low, we have to go out to relax! "
"Whatever you want to do, just do it as soon as possible. The longer you hesitate, the less daring you will become"
These encouraging advices kept on echoing constantly in He Jin's ear...
He Jin asked himself:If I really have to go back home after graduation, what do I want to do in my remaining 1.5 years freedom time?
What kind of person would I be if I had another chance to redefine myself?
If this life only belongs to me, what kind of life do I want to live?
I don't want to focus on achievements, or grades...
Don't want to care about titles, or resumes...
I want to learn to drink, want to sing and dance in karaoke, want to play games, want to go skiing, want to play tennis, want to travel, want to experience a true love ...
All of these, in that woman's mouth, were viewed as wrong, a bad thing, a so-called "deviant."
But He Jin longed for it, he really wants it. It was always a great question for him..
Why did other people can do it, but he can't?
Why did he have to always act as a good boy?
Why must he live like a puppet...
With his dark mood kept deepening, He Jin tried desperately to suppress himself from recalling that special words in his mind, and yet it still slipped out-
"Eight years, I have and will always wait for you online, Ah Jin."
Every words of that sentence was raging in his mind, engulfing his whole brain, sweeping to the core of his soul... depriving him of his common sense, and igniting a blazing feeling of rebellion in He Jin's heart which had been dormant for eight years.

He Jin got off the bus at the university's east gate. The rain had not stopped, so He Jin ran lightly all the way back to the dormitory. His whole body was wet, but at the moment he felt like a King Kong, invincible to it all.
A cool autumn rain, between this morning until now, the temperature had dropped seven or eight degrees. Hou Dong Yan was alone in their room, sitting in front of his computer wearing only a qiuku pants, with the room heater turned on close by. When he saw He Jin came back, he exclaimed: "Oh, where have you been"
[T/N:A picture of Qiuku Pants, if you're wondering.]
"I went to Kun Lake with some friends from student union." He Jin, who was sweating from running, casually took a piece of dry towel to wipe his head, but did not change his clothes.
Because he promised Tong Xuan and Guo You to do a lecture on Wednesday, He Jin only had time to rest for a moment before he had to get up and began searching for his review materials from last year's examination. If he worked in his fastest speed, he could finish making the ppt today- something that could be done today, he rarely ever dragged to tomorrow.
After dinner, He Jin began to print those notes, and once he was done tidying them up, it was already well past eight o'clock in the evening.
Sitting in front of his computer, He Jin looked at "Demon God" shortcut icon. He hesitated for a long time, before he finally opened a browser, and went to Fire's Fly Tour homepage. He clicked enter, and was instantly greeted with a bunch of messages floating, which startled He Jin-
"Ah ah ah ah Ruthless I love you ..."
"Ah, ah, hubby! "
He Jin: "....." What is this? (￣_￣| | |)
He Jin put on his headphones, and heard Fire's voice, confirming that he did not enter the wrong place. However, he only heard Fire said a few words, which then followed by someone else's voice that he did not recognize.
He Jin closed those barrage of messages, and finally saw a figure on the screen. It was still the same familiar character, the same one who had appeared in front of his "Xiao Xian-Jin" character before, the same figure with the four words "Fire Ruthless" written above his head, and yet, this time He Jin's heart seemed to be filled with some inexplicable emotions. His palms were hot and his chest kept thumping.
The screen showed a battle scene, it was a 1v1 between Fire and another player. The only thing He Jin could see was their crackling fireworks-like cool skills, and then both of them would dissapear, moving like clashing shadows in the air. He Jin tried to listen to the explanation, but still wasn't able to understand, however he could see their blood status, with Fire obviously faring a little better.
He Jin looked for a while, then silently closed off the web page. After his screen returned to desktop, he double-clicked on the "Demon God" icon.
-Fire is now broadcasting live, he should not pay attention to my online status right?

"OK, then let's cut to Fire Ruthless' perspective and look at his skill mix ..." Peng Yuhao explained, connecting to Qin Yu's interface.
There was a barrage of flares in the air, and now, with Qin Yu not speaking, the female fans screamed a lot less. The audiences were mostly in the middle of analyzing how Fire would win, and also occasionally talking about how handsome his character looked.
"The big God's skill is so clean, he's still hiding his skills ..."
"The Great God is using keyboard shortcuts, right?" "
"It's always a pleasure to see Fire Ruthless playing PvP..."
"I don't know what to do after holographic version comes out."
***
"We see Ruthless used ' Thunder ' after the" Red Flame Purgatory ", and Copenhagen's blood bar has dropped dramatically!" Peng Yuhao exclaimed excitedly.
At this moment, above Fire Ruthless' head, on the screen suddenly flashed a golden message-
[System]: Your wife, "Xiao Xian-Jin" is online.
The whole broadcast room instantly fell silent. Then, a moment later, Fire also stopped all of his actions, leaving all the audiences in shock.
After a few seconds of silence, the barrage exploded and the audience began to talk and throw bubble messages one after another.
"No Way! (#°д°) "
"What did I see! What did I just see!"
"Who can tell me what's going on, Is Ruthless not going to fight?" "
"Ruthless' wife is coming ..."
"...... The real wife is actually coming ......"
[Notice]: Netizen "Moon" cast a "flying bubble." to Fire Ruthless
[T/N:Flying bubble is message bubble, like the one Yiyi sent to He Jin before]
"I'm sad sad sad ..... ..."
"Ruthless's fucking wife? Xiao Xian-Jin? What the heck? "
"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah oh ah ah ah ..."
[Notice]: Netizen " morning mist ferry " cast a "flying bubble." to Fire Ruthless
"No way ah ah ... Hubby, you actually have a wife..."

Fire Ruthless' PK opponent this time was the #1 player on the second server, "Copenhagen Dazs".When he saw Fire Ruthless stood still for more than ten seconds, he also began to notice that something was wrong, and followed suit to stop.
Copenhagen Dazs: "What's wrong?"
Fire Ruthless: "GG"
[T/N:GG = Good Game, a term in game to say that one wants to surrender.]
Copenhagen Dazs: "....."
Qin Yu coughed, and then said to the microphone: "Ice cream, my wife came, so I won't fight, this time you win."
[T/N:So, Ice cream is a pun of Copenhagen Dazs' username since it's simliar with Hagen Dazs, which is an ice cream brand. ThanksAma_tsuki_MyuandBeloved_Sienna on wattpad]
[Demon God Arena #1]: The Player "Fire Ruthless" has left the room.
Copenhagen Dazs: "... Wtf! "
The slow brain-circuited Peng Yuhao finally processed this whole thing, and suddenly burst out: "I—-Fuck!"
