Chapter 1048: Chapter 1036: Offline etup
Qiao Lin leaned in close to Qiao Jing, holding her arm, and said with a cheeky smile, “Xiao Jing, that player called ‘Big Fat Orange’ in the ga just now, invited us to et up at the match. What do you think?”
Qiao Jing replied nonchalantly, “I don’t care, anything is fine.”
“Then let’s et up. I’ve been playing gas with this person for quite a while, I’m quite curious about what they’re like.”
After saying this, Qiao Lin winked and took out her phone to reply to ‘Big Fat Orange’.
[Dazzling Line-Up]: “See you at the entrance of the venue.”
[Big Fat Orange]: “OK! It’s settled then!”
…
In the blink of an eye, the day of the KPL finals arrived.
Qiao Jing and Qiao Lin arrived at the entrance of the venue as agreed, waiting to et ‘Big Fat Orange’.
While waiting, Qiao Lin held onto Qiao Jing’s arm and said with great interest, “Honestly, I’m really curious. I’ve known this ‘Big Fat Orange’ in the ga for quite so ti, and it sounds like they’re probably young from their tone.”
As she spoke, Qiao Lin paused, and then changed her tone, “But, you know, so people like to pretend to be young online, it’s hard to judge their age.”
Qiao Jing nodded slightly, speaking in a cool tone, “That’s true, you can never tell online, just going by tone isn’t enough to judge anything.”
Unlike Qiao Jing’s nonchalance, Qiao Lin was genuinely full of curiosity.
Unable to stay calm for even two minutes, she shook Qiao Jing’s hand again and said with interest, “I wonder if this ‘Big Fat Orange’ is a guy or a girl? I think it would be best if they’re a handso guy, more pleasant to look at!”
Hearing this, Qiao Jing raised her eyebrow slightly, looking at Qiao Lin playfully, “Second sister, seems like you’re thinking of developing a little romance on the side?”
Qiao Lin “eh-ed” twice quickly, saying, “Don’t say such things lightly, I don’t an it like that. I just think that good-looking people are more pleasing to the eye!”
Saying this, she reached out and lightly lifted Qiao Jing’s chin with a mischievous smile, “Just like you, naturally beautiful, a true beauty that could topple a country. Honestly, I could look at your face every day and never get tired!”
Qiao Jing pulled her hand away, chuckling softly in amusent.
Seeing this, Qiao Lin said solemnly, “Don’t you believe , I’m being serious! I said long ago, if I were a guy, I’d definitely go to any lengths to win you over!”
Qiao Jing really didn’t know how to respond to that, so she just smiled faintly and said nothing.
However, she did rember that Qiao Lin had indeed said sothing like that before.
It was when she disguised herself as a man and pretended to be Qiao Lin’s boyfriend to accompany her to a classmates’ gathering.
After teasing enough, Qiao Lin looked at her watch and muttered, “It’s practically ti, why isn’t this ‘Big Fat Orange’ here yet? So strange…”
After muttering a few more tis, she turned to Qiao Jing, “Xiao Jing, do you think we’ve been stood up?”
Qiao Jing thought for a mont, then said, “Did you exchange any contact details with them? If so, you could try reaching out to ask where they are.”
“Um…”
Qiao Lin shook her head awkwardly, “We only communicate in-ga and haven’t exchanged contacts yet. The other person might not be online now. I should have asked for their phone number sooner.”
“Don’t worry, let’s wait a bit longer. Maybe they’re stuck in traffic or sothing ca up.”
Just as Qiao Jing finished speaking, they saw a taxi approaching from a distance and stopping a few steps ahead of them.
Qiao Lin glanced over a few tis and guessed, “Could the person we’re waiting for be in that taxi?”
“Co on, let’s go take a look!”
Saying this, Qiao Lin pulled Qiao Jing along towards the taxi.
anwhile, the rear door of the taxi opened, and a boy of about fifteen or sixteen years old got out.
The boy had thick eyebrows and big eyes, with a clean and handso look and delicate features. Although not astonishingly good-looking, he was definitely a very charming, sunny-looking guy, the kind who draws attention at first sight.
He had a black backpack slung over one shoulder and looked full of energy, exuding a sense of youthfulness.
Many girls around turned their attention to him as he got out of the car.
Qiao Jing and Qiao Lin were observing the boy when he walked directly up to them.
“Hi, I’m ‘Big Fat Orange’.”
Zeng Xiangyang waved at the two and introduced himself with his gaming na, then asked, “Which one of you is ‘Dazzling Line-Up’?”
“That’s ,” Qiao Lin responded, giving him a few more scrutinizing glances.
Unexpectedly, this ‘Big Fat Orange’ was actually quite young!
And quite handso too!
Zeng Xiangyang nodded, glanced at Qiao Jing next to her, and said to Qiao Lin, “So if you’re ‘Dazzling Line-Up’, then she’s your sister?”
“Yes, that’s right, she’s my sister…”
Before Qiao Lin could finish, Zeng Xiangyang had already started chatting warmly with Qiao Jing.
“You were the one who helped with that gaming match that day, right? Your gaplay was absolutely amazing! I was totally blown away by your skills!”
Qiao Jing didn’t say much, just curled her lips slightly as a polite response.
Zeng Xiangyang blinked his big eyes again and blurted out, “You don’t look remarkable, but your gaplay is spectacular! I even suspected you might be a professional player from a team!”
Upon hearing this, Qiao Lin imdiately glared at Zeng Xiangyang, “Hey! How can you talk like that? What do you an by ‘not remarkable’? We just t, and you’re throwing personal attacks. What’s wrong with you? Can’t you speak properly?”
Seriously, the young ones really don’t know how to talk!
Saying soone isn’t remarkable right away, is that polite?!
Zeng Xiangyang shrugged and defended himself, “Co on! Could you focus on the main point? I didn’t an any personal attack, I mainly wanted to complint your sister’s skills and gaming prowess!”
This chatty and bright-eyed boy in front of her made Qiao Jing inexplicably feel a sense of déjà vu.
It was as if there was once a little kid just like this, always hanging around her, pestering her to teach him how to play gas…
But these fragnts, incidentally recalled, were very clear, yet beco blurry when she tried to think about them carefully.
Perhaps, like Qiao Lin said, she had so kind of special connection with this ga before, at least she definitely had co in contact with it, otherwise, these scenes wouldn’t erge from her mind!
As Qiao Jing was musing, Qiao Lin suddenly grabbed her arm and pulled her towards the venue, “The match is about to start, let’s hurry inside.”
Zeng Xiangyang followed the two inside.
Inside, the three took their seats in the audience.
Zeng Xiangyang sat down and got back up to buy so water and snacks, then returned, chivalrously handing them to Qiao Jing and Qiao Lin.
Qiao Lin casually complinted, “Who would’ve thought you were so considerate!”
