Reborn to Make Games: My Girlfriend is a Game Streamer
Chapter 57 Such a Coincidence
The following morning, on the streets of Lin'an.
A brand-new BMW SUV smoothly merged into the traffic and headed towards the hotel where Du Fan was on a business trip.
In the driver's seat, Chen Xu gripped the steering wheel, a smile he couldn't hide constantly playing on his lips.
Ji Siyu, who had taken a seat in the back earlier, could not hide her excitement. She would look down at her phone from time to time and then look out the car window, as if she could already see the big secret that was about to be revealed.
"Are you sure Du Fan is reliable? Don't let him slip out beforehand, that would be so boring." Ji Siyu couldn't help but confirm again.
"Don't worry at all!" Chen Xu said confidently. "The eldest brother is a steady and reliable person. He's very clear-headed, and he's even more gossipy than we are! Back in the group chat, when I was still pressing the second brother about his indie game project, he was the one gossiping about the second brother and your best friend's relationship first!"
As the car turned onto the side road in front of a chain hotel, Du Fan could be seen from afar, carrying a backpack and standing by the roadside looking around.
Chen Xu rolled down the car window and called out, "Boss, get in! You sit in the front, we need to save the back for them."
Du Fan opened the passenger door, letting in the cool morning air, and greeted them with a hearty smile: "Third brother, sister-in-law, good morning!"
Du Fan seemed to be in good spirits. He glanced at the two of them, and his smile gradually became meaningful: "Our secret mission this time has a very clear objective."
"It couldn't be clearer." After Du Fan fastened his seatbelt, Chen Xu restarted the car, and the navigation destination was already set—Mingchun Garden.
He introduced them as if they were his own treasures, his voice filled with barely suppressed excitement: "Target one, Chen Bainian, my two best buddies, the newly minted hit game producer;
Target Two: Jiang Yiting, Siyu's best friend, a young, beautiful, and extremely popular female game streamer;
The key clue is: they both currently live in Mingchun Garden!
Even if they don't live together, they're definitely neighbors!
We reasonably suspect that their relationship is definitely more than just that of 'neighbors'!
Ji Siyu leaned forward eagerly to add, her eyes sparkling: "They both publicly maintain that they're single. Although they've clarified the rumors online before, the more they do that, combined with their current apparent cohabitation, the more suspicious it becomes, right?"
Du Fan listened with great interest, stroking his chin and nodding: "Now that you mention it, it's quite interesting. I know Bai Nian's personality; for him to be neighbors with a girl and get so close... that's really not like him."
"Right!" Chen Xu excitedly slapped the steering wheel. "So, today's plan is for us to pretend it's just a regular friends' get-together and pick them up on the way."
Once everyone was present, the group split into two teams in the morning.
You and I are responsible for taking our second child back to our alma mater for a nostalgic trip and to see our teachers.
In that atmosphere of reminiscing about youth and lamenting the passing years, we subtly probed and caught them off guard!
Ji Siyu picked up the conversation in a tacit manner, speaking quickly: "As for me, I'll be responsible for keeping my Tingting occupied and finding a quiet coffee shop for a deep conversation between best friends."
We'll operate on two fronts, sharing information, and make sure we have a pretty good grasp of their true relationship before we meet up this afternoon!
"Understood!" Du Fan immediately got into the zone, rubbing his hands together eagerly. "I guarantee I'll complete the mission! But third brother, what if... they really just have a purely platonic neighborly relationship?"
"Impossible!" Chen Xu and Ji Siyu exclaimed in unison, then burst out laughing.
Chen Xu said decisively, "Based on my understanding of the second brother and Siyu's knowledge of her best friend, the odds are lower than winning the lottery! We'll see!"
Amidst laughter and excited conspiracies, the car sped towards Mingchun Garden.
-----------------
Unit 3, 12th floor, Mingchun Garden.
Chen Bainian glanced at his phone; Du Fan had messaged him saying he was almost there.
He filled the cat's food and water bowls, rubbed the cat's head, put on his coat, grabbed his keys, and opened the door to 1201.
Almost simultaneously, the door to room 1202 next door clicked open.
Jiang Yiting came out.
She was clearly dressed up a bit today, no longer in her usual casual hoodie style.
A sleek black workwear jacket paired with a simple white T-shirt, casually tucked into high-waisted jeans, accentuating a slender waistline.
Her long hair was tied into a neat high ponytail, and she wore light makeup, which made her bright eyes and white teeth stand out even more. She looked handsome and dashing, with a refreshing charm.
The two met face to face in the narrow stairwell and were both taken aback.
"Are you leaving now too?" Jiang Yiting blinked.
"Yeah, my friend's almost here." Chen Bainian nodded, his gaze lingering on him for a moment. His casual attire was different from his usual appearance. "Your friend's arriving around this time too?"
"Almost there." Jiang Yiting shook her phone; the screen was lit up with a "Coming Soon" message from Ji Siyu.
"Shall we go down together?" Chen Bainian stepped aside, gesturing for her to go first.
"Sure." Jiang Yiting didn't stand on ceremony, and the two of them entered the elevator one after the other.
As the elevator descended, only the two of them were in the cramped space.
Feeling a slight sense of weightlessness, Jiang Yiting watched the constantly changing numbers and suddenly felt it was a bit of a coincidence, and also a bit funny: "You know, if we find out later at the entrance of the community that we're waiting for the same group of people, that would be hilarious."
Chen Bainian imagined the scene for a moment, a hint of a smile flashing across his eyes: "The probability of that is even lower than winning the lottery."
The elevator "dinged" as it arrived on the first floor.
The two walked out of the apartment building side by side.
Today is a rare good day in March in Jiangnan, with the warm sunshine shining on the two of them.
Greenery is sprouting in the neighborhood, and spring is gradually in full bloom.
They walked together naturally toward the entrance of the residential area, standing at a distance that was neither too close nor too far apart, in the open space next to the guardhouse.
From a distance, the two looked like a couple who had arranged to meet in spring and were waiting for a friend or vehicle.
It is natural and harmonious, blending into the surrounding scenery with the residents who are taking a walk or returning from grocery shopping.
Among the security guards on duty today was the familiar Grandpa Qin.
He saw the two of them, smiled, and poked his head out to greet them: "Little Chen, going out with Little Jiang?"
"No, Uncle Qin," Chen Bainian replied truthfully, "We both have friends coming over today, and we're both waiting for our cars to pick us up at the door."
Jiang Yiting smiled and nodded as a greeting.
"Oh..." Upon receiving the answer, a faint hint of disappointment flashed across Grandpa Qin's face, as if saying, "So that's not it." His voice lowered slightly. "Then, are you getting along well in the startup park?"
"It's great, Ming-ge is very considerate and has helped a lot," Chen Bainian replied politely.
"That's good, that's good."
The two chatted with Grandpa Qin for a few more minutes. A few minutes later, a white BMW SUV, matching the description in the text message, slowly slowed down and stopped precisely at the roadside near the entrance of the residential area.
The passenger and rear windows rolled down simultaneously, and three smiling faces, brimming with gossip and excitement, popped out, their eyes fixed intently on the two people standing together.
"Second brother! Over here!" Chen Xu shouted loudly, his eyes quickly sweeping over Chen Bainian and the beautiful figure beside him.
"Tingting!" Ji Siyu leaned out of the back seat, waving her hand vigorously with a bright smile, but her eyes quickly scanned Chen Bainian like a detective.
Chen Xu and Ji Siyu's calls rang out almost simultaneously.
Then they saw the two people standing side by side turn their heads at the same time, look at each other, and both of them showed a moment of surprise and bewilderment.
The three people in the car, seeing the incredulous expressions on the faces of the two people outside, finally couldn't hold back and burst into knowing laughter.
Jiang Yiting and Chen Bainian exchanged a glance, instantly understanding what was going on, and couldn't help but shake their heads with a smile.
The joke made in the elevator turned out to be a self-fulfilling prophecy.
The three people in the car couldn't help but laugh as they watched the two people being taken off with incredulous expressions.
