Learn.

  Everyone turned to look at Xue Xi in disbelief.

  When Xue Xi won against those five people easily, everyone had had this suspicion, but they could not believe it.

  From the moment XH found a female professional player to play for them, Learn had become a legend in the eSports scene.

  A girl who finished playing a single match and then retired. No one knew what she went on to do. It was as if she had disappeared. She did not go on Weibo or the game.

  So!

  She was a straight-A student. She stopped playing eSports because she wanted to do research!

  That made sense.

  It was a waste for such a talent to play eSports. She should help create more inventions.

  The boys were stunned, but the girls exploded.

  It made the girls proud to know who Learn was! Especially those who played games. After they got into an argument with the boys, when they were being criticized for not playing the game well, they believed in Learn.

  But they did not expect Sister Xi to be Learn. Everyone’s admiration for Xue Xi swelled as they looked at her with shining eyes.

  “Are you still saying that girls can’t beat boys in gaming? It’s not that our Sister Xi can’t beat them, but she’s just tired of them!”


  “Apologize! Apologize to the girls!”


  The girls shouted in unison, causing the straight male singles who were criticizing the female gamers for not being able to play the game to twitch their lips.

  Then, the boys said, “Alright, sorry.”


  Qin Shuang hooted. “I can’t hear you!”


  The other girls chimed in. “I can’t hear you!”


  The boys became even more embarrassed. They coughed and continued shouting, “Sorry!”


  Whoosh!

  The crowd exploded. The boys immediately said, “Learn, we’re not criticizing Feng Yan just because. It’s just that his actions are too much. He’s become too dispirited!”


  When Xue Xi heard this, she looked at Feng Yan and saw that he seemed to have turned a deaf ear to the curses around him. Instead, he was looking at He Gao worriedly as though he was afraid that he would rush over.

  Xue Xi lowered her eyes. “Everyone has the right to choose how to live.”


  Her words silenced everyone.

  Just as everyone felt unsure of what to do, Feng Yan suddenly smiled. His hoarse voice slowly said, “You’re right.”


  Everyone was stunned.

  Feng Yan smiled. “I really shouldn’t be so dispirited. I’ll return to the XH club now.”


  He did not want his pain to be publicized, so he never said that his most important friend and family had passed away.

  But today, he didn’t want Xiao Chen to worry for him either. Hence, he wanted to go back and rise up.

  When the surrounding fans heard this, their eyes turned red.

  Everyone did not really hate him. They were just angry at him for not fighting.

  When they heard him say this, the eyes of several old fans who had watched him slowly walk to this step turned red. Then, they said, “Feng Yan, as long as you don’t give up, no matter what results XH obtains, we will always be your fans. All the best!”


  “All the best!”


  The students of Huaxia University were all top students from various regions. They were well-educated, so they were not really unreasonable people. At this moment, they all said to Feng Yan, “All the best!”


  Feng Yan smiled for the first time in a long time.

  He waved at everyone before leaving resolutely. He didn’t even give He Gao another glance until he left.

  The fact that He Gao hadn’t acknowledged them meant that he definitely had his own concerns. This way, everyone would be safe. Even if they were separated, even if they didn’t contact each other, they would feel at ease as long as they knew that the other party was doing well.

  Carrying everyone’s expectations, Feng Yan left Huaxia University.

  Seeing him like this, Flame Number One stopped trying to talk to He Gao and surrounded Xue Xi with Qin Shuang.

  He Gao stood far away.

  He looked at his former friends.

  The world was dangerous.

  In the past, he did not know why Feng Yan had pushed him away for five years and did not let him touch eSports. Before he learned how terrifying that black-clothed person was, he was also fearless.

  But now he knew.

  His friends were all ordinary people. They shouldn’t be dragged into his world.

  His world was too dangerous. Even he himself did not know if he could escape unscathed, so he did not acknowledge them. Even when Sister Xi suspected him, he found many classmates to testify for him to make Sister Xi give up. He was just afraid that if he really passed away this time, he would bring harm to his friends again.

  He Gao lowered his gaze, hardened his heart, and turned around.

  With this turn, they walked into two different worlds.

  After He Gao disappeared from the field, Xue Xi retracted her gaze and looked at Yu Da. Yu Da still had an impatient expression on his face. When he saw her looking over, he immediately said, “Don’t look at me like that. I just didn’t want to look for trouble. Don’t think that I’m trying to be nice to you again.”


  After saying that, Yu Da thought for a while and immediately explained, “Also, don’t misunderstand. Don’t think that I’m trying to please you so that you won’t report us!”


  After saying that, Yu Da tightened his backpack and left.

  Xue Xi: “.……”


  “Report what?” Qin Shuang asked.

  Xue Xi returned to her senses and looked at her. She did not ask why they were here and instead said, “I’ll go on the program. I’ll deal with the hair issue.”


  Cen Bai had told her the truth yesterday. Xue Xi had originally planned to contact the production team herself. After all, Qin Shuang had submitted her phone and could not be contacted.

  Qin Shuang was stunned and replied, “Sister Xi, you want to dye your hair black?”


  Xue Xi touched her red hair and said calmly, “Not dye. It’s a waste of time.”


  Qin Shuang: “.……”


  Xue Xi then asked, “Does the production team have a wig?”


  “Yes, they do.”


  After Qin Shuang answered, she asked, “Don’t you want to dye your hair black?”


  Although her red hair looked valiant and pretty, she was still in school and it was inconvenient for her to do so many things. It was too eye-catching.

  Xue Xi: “.……Oh. Slowly got used to it.”


  “.……”


  She knew that Sister Xi was afraid of wasting time, but she did not expect her to want to spend this much time……

  Qin Shuang returned to the production team. After handing over her phone, she returned to the dormitory happily.

  As soon as she entered, she saw Xu Xinyao sitting in their dormitory. When she saw her, she asked, “Qin Shuang, did you go out today to look for a top student?”


  Qin Shuang raised her eyebrows. “Yes.”


  Xu Xinyao smiled. “Did you find one? Oh yeah, when you signed up for the program, there was nothing written on the family column. You’re a trainee and there’s no company to pay for your appearance. Can you afford to hire a top student?”


  Qin Shuang leaned against the door frame and smiled at Xu Xinyao. She said in an evil tone, “Xu Xinyao, you’re paying so much attention to me that I’m starting to have delusions.”


  Xu Xinyao: “?”


  Qin Shuang glared. “Don’t tell me you’ve fallen in love with me? That’s too scary. I’m not a lesbian!”


  Xu Xinyao: “!!!”


  Following that, Qin Shuang’s smile faded. “I won’t trouble you to keep an eye on me. We’ll be starting the recording tomorrow. We’ll see what happens then!”
