Chapter 1355: Chapter 1355: What Does It Feel Like to Like Someone
Qing Kong Wanli: What’s it like to like someone?
God replied instantly: Who do you like?
Qing Kong Wanli: Just asking casually.
The dialog box kept showing “typing.”
God: When you like someone, even if you’re busy, you’re always thinking about them.
God: You enjoy being alone with them.
God: When you’re together, you pretend not to notice them, but when they’re out of sight, you can’t wait to find them.
God: When they’re hurt or sick, you care about them.
God: When they’re close to others, you feel jealous.
God: When they get close to you, you blush and your heart races.
God: When you think of them, you feel sweet inside and smile at the corner of your mouth. You’re happy because they’re happy, delightful because they are.
Qing Kong Wanli: …
She was just asking casually, didn’t expect God to answer so thoroughly. She looked at it seriously, but soon lost interest. Typing on the keyboard, she replied: Save that for impressing girls.
God: Didn’t you ask me what it’s like to like someone? That’s exactly how it feels.
An Bai kept typing non-stop. If Chenchen is asking this, it means his recent efforts haven’t been in vain. He should keep up the good work!
Meng Shuqing replied: I have something to do, let’s leave it at that for now.
Meng Shuqing exited the game, shivered at those cheesy words, and felt goosebumps all over.
Meng Shuqing thought for a moment, then sent An Bai a message, saying she’d be with Jian Xing for the next few days and won’t have time to come back for dinner.
An Bai was in the game, wondering why Meng Shuqing had left so suddenly. His phone flashed with a message from her. After thinking for a moment, he replied: Okay, my company happens to be busy too.
Meng Shuqing sent a cute emoji and then went to Jian Xing’s house.
“Huh, you haven’t been visiting your childhood friend or that Lance, the male god, but came to me instead?” Jian Xing was at home eating instant noodles, wearing pastel pink rabbit-themed loungewear, looking incredibly cute.
“Star, isn’t there a genius in the law department chasing you?” Meng Shuqing didn’t answer but asked in return, eyeing the instant noodles Jian Xing held. “Star, you’re not being nice, cook more for me.”
“I want to add an egg.” Meng Shuqing added.
Jian Xing gave her a sidelong glance and handed over the egg noodles, already prepared in the kitchen, saying: “Here, yours.”
“Star, you’re the best.” Meng Shuqing took a deep breath. Even though she was half full, she couldn’t resist eating more when she smelled the aroma of the egg noodles. They bantered back and forth as they ate, having a great time.
After eating, Meng Shuqing eagerly cleaned up the bowls and tidied the kitchen. Jian Xing had already cut up a melon, and they sat on the balcony, taking in the beautiful night view.
Jian Xing said: “Honestly, that exchange student, Lance, right? Seems like he likes you.”
Recently, the school was buzzing with rumors, especially since Lance wasn’t just good-looking and humorous but also reportedly came from a great family. He exuded a noble aura, winning the admiration of many girls at school.
“I’m not RMB.” Meng Shuqing pursed her lips and said: “Lance has quite pretty eyes, but I can’t just like him because he’s good-looking. There are plenty of good-looking people in the world; am I supposed to like them all?”
“True enough.” Jian Xing agreed, then leaned forward and asked: “You like An Bai, right?”
“Who said that?”
Meng Shuqing instinctively denied it, feeling uneasy all over. Just hearing An Bai’s name made her heart skip a beat. She changed the topic, saying: “I came to see you because I wanted to discuss forming a team. There’s an international competition at the end of the year. Should we give it a try?”
“The one with a 100,000 prize for the first place?” Jian Xing immediately recalled the pinned post on the forum.
“Yes.” Meng Shuqing nodded affirmatively, saying: “Our team, let’s call it Star Team, how about it?”
“Sure.” Jian Xing nodded without a second thought. “But there are just the two of us; isn’t that too few people?”
Meng Shuqing replied without hesitation: “We’ll recruit directly; I know someone good.”
“I know two reliable people too.” Jian Xing said: “We have some good picks, but participating in a competition means going on stage.”
Jian Xing didn’t like going on stage, nor did she enjoy being in the spotlight.
“How about we wear masks?” Meng Shuqing had forgotten about that.
“…” Jian Xing rolled her eyes.
Who participates in a competition wearing masks?
Is there something to hide?
“Then never mind.” Meng Shuqing sighed and said: “I was hoping to try out the international competition.”
She didn’t like showing her face either.
“But we could try smaller contests!” Jian Xing had played many before. Although much smaller in scale compared to large international or domestic competitions, they were still fun to play.
Jian Xing pulled Meng Shuqing into the pit.
…
When they were both tired, Meng Shuqing just stayed overnight at Jian Xing’s place. After all, they were about the same build, both slender with a hard time gaining weight.
Jian Xing’s closet was filled with clothes, many of which she hadn’t cut the tags off yet. From the looks of the brands, they were all high-end.
“Don’t you like Star Bright’s clothes?” Meng Shuqing casually picked a pajama to change into, feeling curious.
Star Bright was now a top-tier brand, renowned both in Huaxia and abroad. All her clothes were either Star Bright designs or made by her mother; sometimes, she’d even make her own clothes.
“Yes, I do.” Jian Xing smiled as she led Meng Shuqing to another wardrobe and said: “Look, this one’s full of Star Bright.”
“…”
Looking at the full set of clothes, Meng Shuqing couldn’t help but ask: “Why don’t you hang them together?”
“There’s no room.” Jian Xing replied without a thought: “Star Bright clothes are so pretty, I can’t bring myself to wear them.”
Jian Xing cherished those clothes so much she wanted to store them all as collectibles. Therefore, she usually wore clothes from another brand.
“Do you buy so many clothes just for collecting?” Meng Shuqing felt an urge to roll her eyes. Aren’t clothes meant to be worn?
“Can’t I?” Jian Xing tilted her head and asked.
Meng Shuqing: “…”
“What’s the use of just collecting them?” Meng Shuqing looked at these beautiful clothes, all designed by her own mother. She preferred seeing people wear them, dressing themselves up beautifully, rather than just buying them for keepsakes.
