Chapter 67: Chu Xiaoran Is Watching You
The third day was game day.
This time, the director team picked a classic foreign couple game called It Takes Two.
This game is also called Don’t Die Yet.
Because it’s a two-player game, as long as one party is alive, the game can continue. But if both die together, reaching a place without a save point, everything has to start over. That is truly miserable.
This game can be called an ambiguity shredder. Couples with a little mutual affection playing this can easily get heated.
Sure enough, in less than half an hour, Zhou Mi was seeing red (angry).
“What do you mean! Su Rui, what exactly do you mean! A broken vacuum cleaner! We’ve fought it seven or eight times! Are you playing me on purpose!!”
[Here we go again, here we go again! Is Zhou Mi an elementary schooler? Even elementary schoolers are more emotionally stable than him! Only played games for two days, and he has the most issues both days!]
[To be honest, I wish I could stuff a pair of smelly socks in Zhou Mi’s mouth! He’s typical of ‘one rat dropping spoiling a whole pot of porridge.’ When Su Rui and Fan Fangfang played, the atmosphere was great, looking very romantic. But as soon as it’s him, it’s a bellyful of trouble!]
Whether it was giving up on himself, or playing games really exposes a person’s nature, Zhou Mi had been extremely irritable these past two days, cold-faced and cursing at the drop of a hat. Netizens watched until their heads grew big, wishing they could crawl through the screen and hit him.
Su Rui pushed his glasses, his voice remaining calm. He didn’t even look at Zhou Mi: “My operation has no problem. It was you who didn’t adjust the direction well and didn’t let the fuel canister hit the vacuum cleaner.”
Zhou Mi wanted to say more, but Lin Huaizhi couldn’t stand it first.
“If you want to argue, can you go outside? There isn’t just one pair of guests in this room. Not affecting others is the most basic manner.”
Lin Huaizhi’s rule was not to stick his neck out, but Zhou Mi was truly too loud. He was happily playing with Huo Chen, about to kiss in the next second, when Zhou Mi suddenly thundered. The perfect atmosphere was completely ruined.
And more than once.
Even if Lin Huaizhi had a good temper, he couldn’t stand being disturbed like this.
Hearing Lin Huaizhi’s words, Zhou Mi was so angry his face turned completely red. He looked at Lin Huaizhi, then at Su Rui and Fan Fangfang: “I know you are all in cahoots. Fine, I can’t afford to offend you, so I’ll hide!”
Zhou Mi slammed the door and left angrily.
This time no one paid attention to him. Fan Fangfang didn’t even look at him. Fang Mo glanced once, but was immediately scolded by Chu Xiaoran the next second: “What are you looking at him for? Watch the screen properly!”
“Sorry, Brother Chu!”
Fang Mo turned his head back abruptly, immediately starting to apologize.
“Nothing to apologize for. I don’t like you looking at him.”
“Okay.” Hearing this, a flush immediately floated onto Fang Mo’s delicate face. He didn’t dare look at Chu Xiaoran, only staring at the screen, but his heartbeat was intense.
Of course, because he didn’t look at Chu Xiaoran, he didn’t discover that after saying this, Chu Xiaoran glanced in Lin Huaizhi’s direction.
Lin Huaizhi was oblivious to this, but the person beside him didn’t miss these details.
“He’s watching you.”
Lin Huaizhi was absent-mindedly operating the game character May to jump while thinking about how to kiss Huo Chen. Suddenly hearing “He’s watching you,” his hand shook, and May died directly.
“Who is watching who?”
Huo Chen, who had never played games, picked up various games extremely quickly. Perhaps men are naturally good at it, or perhaps his IQ was high and his comprehension transcendent. In short, his operation was brilliant.
But he, who was brilliant and rarely died, failed a jump at a not-so-distant step ahead and fell directly into the sewer sewage to die.
A few seconds later.
Cody respawned next to May.
The plot of It Takes Two is simple—a couple wants to divorce due to various conflicts, gets turned into clay dolls and puppets by a magic spell, and is trapped in a fantasy world. Under the guidance of love guru Dr. Hakim, they reluctantly begin to salvage their broken relationship, finally succeeding in breaking the spell and reconciling.
This couple is Cody and May.
Huo Chen looked at Cody standing next to May, put down the controller, and looked at Lin Huaizhi: “I said Chu Xiaoran is watching you.”
Their voices weren’t loud.
Thanks to the other guests’ joyous laughter… okay, mostly Xu Qiao’s joyous laughter, their conversation wasn’t noticed.
“Chu Xiaoran?”
A total of five pairs of guests. Computers were installed starting from the door inwards, five in total. Lin Huaizhi’s group was at the fourth from the back. Chu Xiaoran’s group was at the first. Lin Huaizhi looked back toward the door. “He really looked at me?”
Huo Chen heard this and his eyebrow twitched.
“Why? Listening to your tone, you seem to look forward to him watching you?”
“What?” Lin Huaizhi widened his eyes. “Don’t spread rumors. Even if I look forward to a dog watching me, I couldn’t possibly look forward to him watching me. Of course—”
Lin Huaizhi dragged out the tone, falling forward while hugging Huo Chen’s waist.
“If you ask who I look forward to watching me most, it’s definitely you. Never mind watching, even if you don’t watch me and just say a word to me, I’m very happy.”
Huo Chen’s eyes moved slightly.
What Lin Huaizhi said happened to correspond with his recent symptoms.
Not knowing if it was panic or shyness, Huo Chen suddenly pushed Lin Huaizhi away, his gaze falling from him back to the screen.
“You’d better be.”
…………
Because game rankings affected romance funds, this time Lin Huaizhi, while playing tricks, also paid attention to progress. In the end, relying on super high tacit understanding, the two took first place with data that broke away from the pack.
The next day, naturally, they had a good time playing.
The fifth day was still a game day. This time, the program team picked a veritable breakup game—Overcooked.
Of course, the original name of this game is Overcooked. Because few couples can finish playing without getting angry or breaking up, it earned the nickname Breakup Kitchen.
Not to mention the program team pulled a dirty trick, making five pairs of guests play a confrontation battle.
The so-called confrontation implies two groups confronting each other within a time limit. When the countdown ends, the group with more points wins.
And Overcooked, this game, is basically cooking. For example, chopping vegetables, then steaming/boiling/frying, and finally combining various ingredients into a dish, serving it to score points.
There are many types of dishes.
For example, burgers, sashimi, sushi, etc.
In short, there are complex ones and simple ones. Of course, the confrontation match certainly wouldn’t be simple dishes, so Zhou Mi turned red (angry) in less than half a minute.
“Serve the dishes! You guys serve the dishes!! So many dishes not served! If you don’t lose, who loses!”
Fan Fangfang considered her temper to be very good. After all, when those parents wanted to pull her hair and hit her because their child tripped while causing trouble, she smiled and didn’t get anxious.
But Zhou Mi was probably a piece of shit dropped by Goddess Nuwa when creating humans. Saying Goddess Nuwa means she deserves to be struck by lightning, but Zhou Mi appearing here means Zhou Mi deserves to be struck by lightning!
“If I remember correctly, serving dishes is your task, right?”
