On the post-game interview stage, Meng Ziran stood there blankly, with the spotlight shining on him, and his eyes regained their former indifference.
"Hello, player Meng Ziran, I am Xiao Jia, the official host of the National Soul Taming Competition Post-Season Challenge. I have just completed the Tianyuan breakthrough from four stars to five stars in the competition. This is a huge feat after 33 years. May I ask you
How do you feel now?"
She paused and said with a smile: "I'm very happy, really happy. This way I can continue to stay in LND and won't hinder Lin Xiao, probably."
"Oh my, this is probably a bit conservative. I have heard from many professionals that the level of your red wolf after its breakthrough is definitely not low. It is also among the best among five-stars. What are your expectations?"
"There are no expectations. I am very satisfied if I can break through five stars. However, according to the requirements of the competition system, I will re-evaluate next. I hope it can give me another surprise."
"Okay, then I won't bother you to go to the Soul Control Bureau to refresh your battle soul information. Congratulations again, player Meng Ziran."
"Thanks."
She didn't leave immediately. After the host asked her, it was time to interview Lin Xiao. She wanted to see what Lin Xiao had to say.
After a while of polite remarks, the host asked the question neatly.
"Player Lin Xiao, what do you think of player Meng Ziran's breakthrough on the spot?"
Lin Xiao straightened his voice and looked at the camera with a smile. At this moment, he didn't know how many pairs of eyes were looking at him through this lens.
"I'm very happy. Meng Ziran and I have come all the way. We are classmates and even companions. If possible, of course I am happy to see her become stronger. It really gave me a big surprise. I hope she can go further in the future and break through from five-star to six-star.
Star."
The host immediately stopped talking: "Ah haha, you are really good at joking. Now that player Meng Ziran has made a breakthrough, your team has made up for a shortcoming. Do you have any new recruitment plans in the future? If so, what will it be?"
Who would poach a wealthy family like player Ayao?"
Lin Xiao smiled and said, "I don't know about that. Just ask our coach."
Then there were some questions about his thinking and form during the highlight moments of the last game. This was a routine matter, and Lin Xiao left after speaking.
Of course, I didn’t forget to express my heartfelt thanks to the audience in front of the screen.
Through the private channel of the team player ***, he returned to the separate men's locker room. He originally wanted to take a quick shower and change clothes to go to Meng Ziran to congratulate him, but unexpectedly, Meng Ziran was already waiting for him here.
"I'm going...this is the men's locker room."
"So what?"
Meng Ziran said indifferently.
Lin Xiao's eyes widened, and he seemed to be dreaming back to the first time he talked to Meng Ziran.
This girl had a condescending look, and would retract her careless eyes as soon as they touched his face, just to make sure who was talking to her, and never look at him twice.
But that was not the case with Meng Ziran now. There was something in her eyes that Lin Xiao had never seen before.
"There's something I want to tell you."
"What's up?"
Lin Xiao closed the door and walked in, and vaguely seemed to hear a series of footsteps.
At this moment, a girl with light blond hair and twin tails was raising her arms and preparing to knock on the door.
Look at that exquisite and beautiful face, she is the eldest daughter of the Qi family.
She came to Lin Xiao for a showdown and was determined to make things clear between them.
"Before I do that, let me ask a question. You and Qian Jin are not serious, right?"
But when she heard Meng Ziran speak, her movements stopped.
Then came Lin Xiao's confused voice, "Yes, didn't I tell you about this?"
"That's fine, I just want to confirm one last time to prevent you from pretending that we are already together, so that I am not stealing someone else's boyfriend."
Lin Xiao: "Haha? What are you talking about? What on earth is going on?"
"I said
,Date with me?"
In an instant, Qian Jin felt as if her eyes were about to pop out.
She quickly covered her mouth to prevent it from making any sound.
The room was eerily quiet for a while, and then Lin Xiao's voice came out.
"What are you talking about? We are good friends. I treat you as a brother but you want to sleep with me?"
"Fuck you! I'm not poor with you. I really like you. Are you really unable to tell or are you just pretending to me?"
Lin Xiao: "..."
Qianjin:DNMD!
I can’t believe that this guy Meng Ziran is poaching her!
How dare you poach this young lady!?
Her heartbeat almost stopped for a moment. If Lin Xiao agreed, she would cry immediately. Believe it or not!
"Uh... no, I can't be with you."
Upon hearing this, Qianjin felt relieved and let out a long breath.
What, haven’t you always pretended to be someone else’s in your heart!?
How can one’s mouth be too honest for one’s body?
Meng Ziran asked in a confused voice: "Why? You don't like her."
"Who says I don't like her? She is so cute and beautiful. What boy wouldn't like her after seeing her?"
"You!? So you like pretty people when you see them, right?"
"That's not entirely true. In short, Qianjin's character is quite to my liking. The main reason is that she doesn't act evil or cause trouble, and she doesn't plot evil against me like Su Jinwu, so I won't betray her."
What he said was sanctimonious, but Chu Xianhui didn't allow it.
If Lin Xiao dares to break up with Qian Jin, he will be hacked to death by that hellish sick girl when the day comes to hand over the public food. He knows very well how terrifying the sick girl who is dissatisfied with her desires is.
But Meng Ziran didn't know, and Qian Jin didn't know either. They thought Lin Xiao was of high moral character!
Hearing what he said, Meng Ziran snorted heavily and walked out with a cold face. When he saw Qianjin eavesdropping outside the door, he was surprised and snorted: "You do have a good boyfriend!"
Qianjin is inexplicable. You are trying to dig me out, but you are still attacking me!?
She stood up and planned to chase him out, but when she thought that Meng Ziran had just completed a breakthrough and was gaining momentum, there was no guarantee that she would get anything good out of a fight with her.
After a slight hesitation, Meng Ziran's figure disappeared around the corner. Lin Xiao patted her shoulder and asked in surprise: "Why are you here?"
"Ah? I happened to pass by by chance."
Lin Xiao squinted his eyes with suspicion, how could he happen to pass by this place!
He thought of something in an instant and complained: "You are too defensive, aren't you? But you caught me right now."
Qian Jin's eyes lit up and she just followed the donkey downhill!
"That's right! I knew that woman would take the opportunity to come and harass you. She's so complacent! She just got lucky and happened to complete a Tianyuan breakthrough. There's nothing to be arrogant about. She seems to be able to get along with you on an equal footing."
Lin Xiao's mouth twitched. He didn't expect Qianjin's sense of smell to be so sensitive. Is this guy born in the year of the dog?
"Then what are you going to do about this matter?"
"I must make her look good!"
"Forget it, give me some face."
Lin Xiao grabbed Qianjin's waist and put her head into his arms.
If you don't agree, you won't be allowed to come out. The smell of sweat will suffocate you to death.
Qian Jin was bullied by him for a long time before finally agreeing.
She didn't dare to mention the incident from before this minute. Now with Meng Ziran watching eagerly from the side, there is no chance of an own assist in the showdown with Lin Xiao. She finally managed to get rid of two seniors!
"Okay, then I'll let him go this time, but you have to come to my room to sleep tonight. I have a couple Q&A in the live broadcast room, you have to cooperate with me!"
"Okay, okay."
Lin Xiao helplessly messed up her hair, and after receiving the last punch, she went back to the room to change clothes.
