He accidentally bumped into the witch while flying on his sword.

Fanfan hesitated for a long time, but finally couldn't help asking, "By the way, little sister, what's your relationship with Chichi?"

Li Mei: "Sister, what does this have to do with the game?"

Fanfan: "No... I was just asking out of curiosity."

Li Mei: "We don't have any special relationship. We're just classmates who came to Nancheng for vacation together."

Fanfan: Really? You two seem to work together very well.

Li Mei: "We just hang out together occasionally."

Fanfan: "Occasionally..."

Fanfan: "Little sister, let me tell you, a woman's happiness is something she has to fight for herself. When the time comes, she should act decisively and never hesitate."

Li Mei: "Then, sister, did you make a move?"

Fanfan: "..."

Fanfan: "?"

Fanfan: "My little sister is quite the talker..."

Zhang Chi chose to remain silent and not get involved in the verbal sparring between the women.

……

Fanfan: "By the way, are your IDs a couple's IDs?"

Zhang Chi: "Huh?"

Fanfan: "You two, one sleeps late into the spring outside the window, the other sleeps soundly like a pig in a thatched cottage. Isn't that like 'sleeping soundly in the thatched cottage, the sun lingers late outside the window'?"

Li Mei: "Blind Monk, you've spotted the key point."

Fanfan: "So, I know Chichi. Who's outside the window? And who is Caotangchun? Why is one being slept with, and the other sleeping with a pig?"

Zhang Chi: "Fanfan, don't overthink it. This is a funny ID that my brother and I came up with together. She borrowed my brother's account."

Fanfan: "Oh, I thought my sister had a nickname called 'Outside the Window'."

Li Mei gritted her teeth, raised her fist and waved it at Zhang Chi, who quickly put his hands together and begged for mercy with a smile.

……

Fanfan: "How was it, little sister? How are Chichi and I? We've been playing for so long and haven't lost a single game!"

Zhang Chi: "Indeed, it's mainly because the jungler at home is too strong."

Fanfan: "Hehe, our AD isn't bad either."

Li Mei felt like she had just been fed a mouthful of dog food: "Aba, aba aba."

……

Zhang Chi: "Fanfan, leave the red one to me."

Fanfan: "Okay, here you go."

……

Zhang Chi: "Xiao Long."

Fanfan: "I'm here."

……

Zhang Chi gave a signal.

Fanfan: "So you're going to help me block the line, huh? Here I come."

……

Fanfan felt more tired after just a few games than after playing duo queue all night with Chichi.

Li Mei was initially engrossed in her acting and became very enthusiastic, but later she felt she was being overshadowed and lost interest.

Xiao Bai stood to the side, her brows slightly furrowed.

He didn't understand why he felt so resentful.

Was it because he saw Li Mei pretending to be Zhang Chi's ambiguous partner?

But what does what Li Mei does have to do with me?

He couldn't interfere with or control what she did.

But why do I feel so unhappy?

Even Zhang Chi felt that Li Mei had gone a little too far.

But judging from Fanfan's performance, the effect should be good.

He became even more certain of the other person's feelings for him.

He will find a good opportunity to confess and apologize to the other party later.

If she doesn't accept it, then I will keep apologizing until she does.

Of course, an apology should be made after the confession.

Since both of them have this idea, why not take that step forward bravely?

===Chapter 238 The Season of Love

Fanfan: "Chichi, I'm going to sleep."

Zhang Chi: Huh? So early today? Have you finished your broadcast?

Fanfan: "Not yet..."

On the other side, Zhang Chi was using Zhang Ze's phone to open a Bilibili live stream.

A streamer named "Folding Paper Boats for You" is live-streaming a game that several people are playing, and the characters are dressed as the recently popular virtual costume figures.

The option chosen was the one he had previously said he liked the most.

Long, straight white hair and red eyes.

The screen was filled with comments, some cursing Zhang Chi and Li Mei for teaming up to disgust people, others urging Fanfan to hurry up and get an A, otherwise it would be too late.

There were also long-time viewers who had been watching Zhang Chi and Fanfan play together, and they were speaking up for Zhang Chi.

This intensified his feelings of guilt.

Moreover, he could clearly sense that Fanfan was in low spirits, especially when she replied to the comments, stiffly explaining that she and Chichi didn't have any special relationship, and that she shouldn't be stirring up trouble. For some reason, he felt a sudden pang in his heart.

Zhang Chi: "Alright then, let's call it a day."

Li Mei: "Bye-bye, I'm going to sleep too."

Fanfan: "Bye-bye, little sister."

Li Mei: "Bye."

Wang Rui left the game with a smack of his lips, seemingly still wanting more.

He'd had his fill of gossip, especially the tension between those two women—it was really interesting.

Naturally, he understood Li Mei; she was just finding it fun, which was why she was so engrossed in the role.

Zhang Chi had very mixed feelings. After briefly greeting everyone, he went back to his room.

The crowd dispersed, satisfied.

……

Xiao Bai squeezed his knuckles, which were already turning white from squeezing so hard, took a deep breath, and then found Li Mei.

"Li Mei, can we have a chat?"

"Little Bai?" Li Mei covered her mouth in surprise.

"Okay, is that alright?"

“Of course, where shall we talk? Your room? Or…” Li Mei blinked, a sly glint in her eyes.

"Outside the house."

"..."

Li Mei rolled her eyes, but still followed Xiao Bai outside.

Her eyes were alluring, and she feigned shyness as she smoothed a strand of hair behind her ear, her bright eyes slyly scanning the surroundings.

After all, this kind of environment where two people are alone is often suitable for confessing one's feelings.

Although she knew in her heart that the possibility was very small, she still held a sliver of hope.

She used the soft voice she had just used to impersonate Zhang Chi's ambiguous partner to ask:

"Little Bai, what's up so late?"

Upon hearing this voice, Xiaobai would recall the scene of Li Mei pretending to confront another woman, and he couldn't help but frown slightly.

Seeing that Xiaobai disliked her voice, Li Mei quickly switched to her normal voice:

"There are so many mosquitoes here, I don't want to get bitten..."

Xiao Bai was silent for a moment before speaking:

"Li Mei, could you please stop doing this kind of thing?"

"What is it?" Li Mei knew perfectly well what was going on, but still tilted her head and pretended to be stupid.

This made Xiaobai a little anxious.

"It's...it's what you just did. Based on my understanding of Li Mei, although she can be quite generous and open-minded at times, you probably wouldn't like doing something like this."

"Oh? So, Xiaobai, you know me very well?" Li Mei's eyes were full of smiles.

Xiao Bai blushed and stammered an explanation:

"I don't know you very well... It's just that after spending a lot of time with you, I feel that you... you are very... very..."

"Very what?"

Li Mei took a step closer, leaned down, and asked with a smile.
