Chapter 106 Mencius's Discussion: I Really Want To

After strolling through the night market.

Jiang Yuan and his group returned home.

In the car, Yang Chaoyue leaned on Jiang Yuan's shoulder, watching Jiang Yuan run 10,000 meters in the game "Temple Run". "Here, you can play."

Jiang Yuan dodged the obstacle and returned the phone to Yang Chaoyue.

This was arranged long ago.

Yang Chaoyue quickly took it, swiped her finger twice, and actually took a screenshot.

Then, in a panicked leap, he was struck and killed by a high-speed obstacle.

"That's too fast, there's no way to dodge it."

Quietly taking photos in the back seat, she noticed Yang Chaoyue's death and said...

"Hehe, so what if he's dead? Speeding comes at a price."

Yang Chaoyue, however, didn't seem to care and turned to Jingjing, asking, "Jingjing, did you take any photos?"

"I got the picture, I'll send it to you now."

Jingjing sent Yang Chaoyue a photo she had taken of her playing games on her phone.

Subsequently, Jiang Yuan saw that Yang Chaoyue sent both the game screenshots and the photos Jingjing had taken of her to Meng Ziyi.

Mission accomplished.

Yang Chaoyue turned to Jiang Yuan and waved her phone. "Brother, let me tell you, Sister Meng played a game of Run Run Run with me on QQ during a break from makeup on set a while ago. She ran 6,000 meters and kept bragging to me about it. Now I'm bragging back."

Xiao Yu, who doesn't play games much, asked curiously, "Then why didn't you run the 7,000 meters back then?"

"I want to too, Sister Fish."

Yang Chaoyue slumped into the car seat, "But unfortunately, I'm not capable enough; four thousand meters is my limit."

"Is it that difficult? Sister Meng, you're amazing at the 6,000 meters!" Xiao Yu praised.

"Sister Meng was resurrected three times—once as a character, and twice more using diamonds as a cheat," Yang Chaoyue explained. Then she slapped her forehead, "Oops, I should have done that too!"

So it was the power of premium diamonds.

Jiang Yuan casually said, "Then I'll top up some diamonds for you, so you can use cheats to revive next time."

Yang Chaoyue stuck out her tongue: "Brother, I got diamonds from doing quests, and I used them to revive people. I've been saving up diamonds for so long."

Shi, competing with Sister Meng, spent all his money in one day.

Okay, it seems like even cheating didn't work.

Jiang Yuan laughed.

"Can I only be resurrected twice?" Xiao Yu asked.

"Yes, you can't revive indefinitely, otherwise if you could keep reviving with unlimited spending, the mileage would be meaningless," Yang Chaoyue replied.

Jingjing said regretfully, "That's already 10,000 meters. Chaoyue, you should have run it again after you were resurrected."

"Too fast. Even if it revives, it won't be able to run more than a few dozen meters. Forget it."

Yang Chaoyue opened her friends list and was very happy to see her 10,000-meter record at the top of the list among the girls: "I found that the diamond resurrection cheat is not as useful as my brother's human body cheat."

"If I could run that far myself, I wouldn't need to take photos and fake it; I could just compete with Sister Meng on the spot."

Yang Chaoyue felt miserable about her weak strength.

"Maybe you haven't played enough, Chaoyue. Just play occasionally when you're putting on makeup or riding in the car. If you play more, you'll be able to go further," Jingjing said.

"My brother doesn't play either. I just play with Sister Meng and Xiaotian occasionally."

Yang Chaoyue has her own understanding: "Time should be spent on the league and improving skills."

Jiang Yuan was pleased. Chao Yue was currently the best player in the league among the girls, and she was even thinking about improving her skills. She was so hardworking.

"You want to go pro?" Jiang Yuan joked.

"No, I want to beat Xiaotian up."

Yang Chaoyue spoke cold words from her soft lips.

Xiao Yu and Jing Jing couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"I'm serious," Yang Chaoyue said earnestly. "Of course, beating up Xiaotian is just a side thing; my ultimate goal is to be able to team up with my brother."

That's a bit difficult; Jiang Yuan isn't too optimistic.

These girls are all pretty average at gaming; Tian Xiwei is only good at shooting games.

However, due to their limited talent, it's difficult for them to even team up with him.

It's difficult to rank up against him like Chen Duling.

However, Jiang Yuan didn't dampen her enthusiasm. Instead, he said, "Playing matchmaking is actually not bad. There's also ARAM, isn't there?"

The fast pace and constant team fights suit us quite well.

"Yeah, ARAM is fun too."

Yang Chaoyue actually wanted to take back some of the time Jiang Yuan spent playing ranked games with his friends.

The game is fun only if you play it with Jiang Yuan.

However, she was too embarrassed to say it.

That's a bit greedy.

"Sister Meng replied to me!"

Yang Chaoyue felt her phone vibrate and excitedly opened it, only to be struck dumb.

Yang Chaoyue, with a pained expression, showed her phone to Jiang Yuan: "Brother, how can I reply in a way that makes it seem like I was playing by myself?"

Jiang Yuan then looked at her phone's chat history.

[Sister Meng: It's obvious you had Jiang Yuan do the playing for you. You can't fool me. You actually thought you could lie to me? Next time we meet, you'll give me a back massage.]

"It seems difficult."

Jiang Yuan didn't have a good solution either.

"I was originally planning to wait until Xiaotian had a holiday so I could brag about it to him."

Yang Chaoyue sobbed, "Looks like my dream has been shattered. Now I have to massage Sister Meng's back. I brought this on myself." Jiang Yuan smiled. "Human body cheating is punishable. Chaoyue has been punished."

Ding Ding Ding!

Jiang Yuan's phone rang.

"Who called?" Yang Chaoyue asked softly, without leaning over to look, respecting Jiang Yuan's privacy.

"Sister Meng."

Jiang Yuan raised an eyebrow. Could it be that Meng Ziyi had come to cause trouble for him, the substitute player?

The call was connected.

Mencius's refined face appeared on the screen.

"I knew it, Jiang Yuan, you were right next to Chao Yue."

Meng Ziyi's alluring fox-like eyes slanted upwards as she said smugly, "Chao Yue actually tried to trick me by having someone else play for her. Jiang Yuan, how could she have such a thought? Doesn't she know her own limitations?"

"Hey, Sister Meng, I'm right here."

Yang Chaoyue squeezed into the frame, complaining, "Besides, having my brother play for me is my own skill, okay!"

"Then I'll ask Jiang Yuan to substitute for me next time. I want to run 20,000 meters."

"We'll talk about it when you have it."

"Chaoyue, you just wait."

"I'll be waiting."

The two girls were bickering through the screen.

Jiang Yuan was completely bewildered.

"Stop, stop."

Jiang Yuan spoke up, and the two girls stopped fighting.

Meng Ziyi was still wearing his costume, indicating that he was still on set and hadn't finished work.

Jiang Yuan said, "Then Sister Meng, you can continue filming. I'm hanging up."

"No, I still have a night shoot to do, but I'll stay a little longer. Talk to me for a bit."

After stopping Jiang Yuan from hanging up, Meng Ziyi said resentfully, "Jiang Yuan, you have no heart."

After saying that, Meng Ziyi turned to the assistant the company had assigned to her and said, "Could you get me the chocolate? It's in the right pocket of that bag over there, thank you."

Jiang Yuan's expression became somewhat unnatural upon hearing about chocolate.

Mencius did it on purpose; seeing Jiang Yuan's expression, the corners of his mouth slightly turned up.

She repeated, "No heart!"

Yang Chaoyue didn't understand and just thought that everyone had a good relationship. But when she hung up the phone so quickly, Sister Meng got angry.

To divert attention from her brother, Yang Chaoyue said, "It's so late, Sister Meng, are you still eating chocolate? Be careful your teeth rot."

o

"No, I will brush my teeth."

Meng Ziyi stared at Jiang Yuan's handsome face in the dim car lights, his pink lips pursed, looking triumphant.

Jiang Yuan composed herself and said expressionlessly, "Eating too many sweets will make you fat."

Mencius smiled and said playfully, "It's not something we eat often."

"I've been really trying to control my sugar intake lately, just like my manager said."

Mencius licked his lips. "I just suddenly wanted to eat it. It was so sudden. I really wanted it. I just suddenly had a strong craving. I haven't had any sweets for half a month."

"That's strange, why is that?"

"It's a pity you weren't here, otherwise you could have tried the new flavor of chocolate I found."

As the girl spoke, she casually glanced into Jiang Yuan's eyes.

"I don't know if you eat sweets, like chocolate, Jiang Yuan."

chocolate----

Sister Meng, do you really not know whether I'll eat it or not?

Jiang Yuan's lips twitched as he thought of the meal Sister Meng had treated him to last time.

Unexpectedly, after only half a month apart, Sister Meng has changed her ways and is now dancing wildly on the "death line".

Aren't you afraid that Chaoyue will find out and strangle her?

"My brother rarely eats sweets, but I can eat with you."

Yang Chaoyue crossed her arms and nodded in complete agreement: "And sometimes people suddenly crave sweets, maybe because they're in a bad mood and need to eat sweets. I asked my brother about it before, and he told me it's normal, so don't feel guilty, Sister Meng."

"So, Sister Meng, are you in a bad mood?" Yang Chaoyue asked with concern.

This concerned expression made Mencius feel embarrassed.

When I chatted with Yang Chaoyue before, all she could think about was how she was having a heart-fluttering conversation with someone.

"No, no, I'm in a good mood. Thank you for your concern, Chaoyue. You're so kind, Chaoyue."

Mencius said with remorse, "I'll send you some chocolates that I think are delicious."

"Um, I wasn't really craving chocolate. Let's not bother, sending things is too much trouble." Yang Chaoyue shook her head.

Meng Ziyi blinked and pointed at Jiang Yuan: "Then why don't you ask Jiang Yuan to buy some for you? He's so smart, he can't possibly make a mistake."

Jiang Yuan was indeed clever; he understood.

But Sister Meng, have you forgotten that my Chaoyue is a minor?

"She's young, she needs to protect her teeth," Jiang Yuan said irritably.

Sister Meng's mouth speaks volumes; what is she saying?

"Then wait until she comes of age."

Mencius covered his mouth, suppressing a laugh, "Luckily, I'm an adult now—"

Yang Chaoyue frowned: "What do you mean, wait until I'm an adult? Sister Meng, what are you talking about? Chocolate isn't tobacco or alcohol, I can eat it too, okay?"

Yes, you can eat it.

Mencius said meaningfully, "It's a pity Jiang Yuan won't let you eat it."

"That's too late, I need to protect my teeth," Yang Chaoyue said, echoing Jiang Yuan's earlier words.

"I've hung up the phone."

Mencius's repeated outrageous remarks left Jiang Yuan speechless, and she didn't want Chaoyue to be led astray.

"Don't!"

Mencius said urgently, "I really have something important to say, and I hope you will believe me."

"explain."

Jiang Yuan remained expressionless and decided to give Sister Meng another chance.

Mencius asked in a gossipy tone, "Hey, Chaoyue, did you see Sister Jiang Xin's Weibo post?"

"Sister Jiang Xin?" Yang Chaoyue was stunned. "Today? What's wrong? I didn't notice."

"She broke up with her boyfriend."

Meng Ziyi's smile faded, and his clear eyes fixed on someone.

"You broke up?"

Yang Chaoyue didn't notice Meng Ziyi's appearance. She quickly flipped through her phone, opened Weibo, and found Jiang Xin, whom she had followed during the filming of The Journey of Flower.

Sure enough, I saw Jiang Xin's statement.

"Brother, look, Sister Jiang Xin really broke up with her boyfriend."

Yang Chaoyue also showed Jiang Yuan something, "I saw in the Hua Qiangu group that Sister Jiang Xin and Sister Liying haven't finished filming yet."

Yang Chaoyue asked worriedly, "Won't Sister Jiang Xin be affected?"

Jiang Yuan glanced at the Weibo post Yang Chaoyue had found and was slightly surprised.

I think Jiang Xin officially announced their breakup early next year.

I didn't expect the timeline to be moved forward to now.

Or perhaps the celebrities had already broken up, but just hadn't officially announced it.

After all, announcing a breakup is one thing, but the actual timing of the breakup is another.

Some female celebrities can drag out their divorces for a year or two before officially announcing them, let alone a breakup like this.

"Before I left the set, she seemed to be in good spirits and shouldn't be affected."

Mencius smiled insincerely, recalling how Jiang Xin had come to Jiang Yuan for barbecue late at night after Xue Jie, Chao Yue, and the others left, leaving him all alone.

This breakup probably has nothing to do with her Jiang Yuan, right?

"What does Brother Jiang think?" Meng Ziyi asked Jiang Yuan nervously.

Jiang Yuan remained silent, naturally understanding what Sister Meng meant.

But what does that have to do with him?

He was very well-behaved during the filming of "The Journey of Flower." Even when filming was about to wrap up, he never crossed any lines with Mo Tong or Sister Meng.

Only then can there be more intimate contact.

Not to mention Jiang Xin.

Jiang Xin offered him food, but he refused.

It doesn't make sense that it has anything to do with me!

"Probably," Jiang Yuan said speechlessly. "I don't know as much as you do."

"That's true." Meng Ziyi got the answer he wanted and smiled, but quickly withdrew his smile.

Why is she laughing when we're talking about someone breaking up?

"It definitely won't have any impact," Meng Ziyi said confidently. "I'll send her a message to reassure her later."

"Should I send a message too?"

Yang Chaoyue felt she needed to learn how to be a good person.

Jiang Xinjie and the others filmed together for several months and got along well. They often had private lessons together and she would occasionally give Jiang Xinjie some acting advice.

Although it's not very useful, since my older brother can charge it up, I don't need to use it at all.

But it's still appropriate to send a greeting.

"What do you think, brother?" Yang Chaoyue decided to ask Jiang Yuan for his opinion.

"Sure, you and she just finished filming. If you still keep in touch, you can ask her."

Jiang Yuan encouraged, "Just be careful about the distance."

Yang Chaoyue's good interpersonal relationships, high emotional intelligence, and ability to handle situations were also important reasons for her later success.

Offering a word of comfort when someone is down is never a bad idea.

"I occasionally text with Sister Jiang Xin," Yang Chaoyue said. Then she asked, "Should your brother text her too?"

Jiang Yuan waved her hand: "I don't usually communicate with her, so it would be presumptuous of me to suddenly send her a message."

"Yes, you have to consider who you're messaging. We're both girls, and we just finished filming with her, so it's understandable that we'd ask."

o

Hearing Jiang Yuan's words, Meng Ziyi was even more delighted and said, "Let Jiang Yuan go. It's not like someone in our extras team broke up."

Yang Chaoyue didn't care, because she would never break up with anyone else and need her brother's comfort.

When she grows up, she should talk to her brother. It's not like her brother won't talk to her, and then he'll comfort her after they break up, right?

That brother is so mean!

So if anyone's going to be divided up, it'll be Sister Meng and Sister Xue.

Yeah, that brat Tian too.

Skillful.

Mencius thought so too.

Even though someone in the extras team broke up, Jiang Yuan was still able to comfort them.

That definitely means she's been dating other men.

It absolutely couldn't be her!
