Those Sweet Times
Chapter 58 Part 2

Xiang Nuan told herself to calm down.

She found the delivery slip, the handwritten address was blurry. She searched the slip number online and discovered that it was from Z province.

Shen Zemu lived in Z province.

Xiang Nuan couldn’t believe Shen Zemu would send such a gift.

Shen Xuezhang was a very decent man……

Yet, who knew…...Any normal person who got closer to Lin Chuyan might be influenced by him and become weird……

Xiang Nuan sent a message to Shen Zemu, trying to find out.

Xiang Nuan: Xuezhang, I received a box of chocolate. Is it from you?

Shen Zemu: En.

He admitted it! Without hesitation!

It came as such a surprise to Xiang Nuan. At first, she was shocked, feeling all her admiration of him had crumbled. Then, she found it especially unfair. Even though she used to have a crush on Shen Zemu, she had never done anything to hurt him in any way. Why was she being humiliated like this?

Xiang Nuan replied in distress: Xuezhang, what do you mean by sending this kind of thing.

Shen Zemu: It’s just what you think it is.

Xiang Nuan: Xuezhang wants me to eat poop?

Shen Zemu: ……

Shen Zemu, cell phone in hand, stared at Xiang Nuan’s message, confused. Was this young lady actually brain dead? What sort of logic equated “giving chocolate” to “eating poop”? Even if she wanted to turn him down, did she have to say such disgusting things?

He couldn’t understand it or figure it out.

Shen Zemu tried to gather his thoughts and typed several replies but deleted them all. Finally he asked her directly: Why would you say that.

He was really curious about how she came to that conclusion.

Xiang Nuan sent him a picture of the chocolates.

Inside the exquisite box sat six pieces of poop shaped chocolate.

Shen Zemu immediately understood what had happened. His face darkened, he was furious.

After sending the picture, Xiang Nuan bitterly added: Xuezhang, you’ve changed.

Shen Zemu replied with a dark face: It’s been switched.

Xiang Nuan was shocked to hear that: Ah?

Shen Zemu: It wasn’t like that originally.

Xiang Nuan understood what he meant right away and said: Wuwuwu, I knew Xuezhang wouldn’t turn into a weido. Xuezhang is the last normal person in this world……

Shen Zemu: Thanks.

He truly felt that way himself sometimes……

To be polite, Shen Zemu added: You’re a normal person.

Xiang Nuan: Xuezhang, I’m sorry, I failed at living up to everyone's expectations. I’ve defected already. Q A Q

Shen Zemu stared at her words and found it to be rather unusual for her to say. As he was carefully trying to decipher the meaning of it, Xiang Nuan spoke again.

Xiang Nuan: So, who switched it anyway? I guess someone has nothing better to do?

Who switched the package? Well, he very much wanted to know that himself.

Shen Zemu replied: Let me find out.

Then Xiang Nuan suddenly became very quiet.

……

The reason why Xiang Nuan suddenly stopped responding was because she realized an even more serious and embarrassing problem-- --

Shen Zemu’s chocolate happened to arrive today. So was it a confession? It must be?

She went back to the previous messages and saw Shen Zemu said “It’s just what you think it is.”

It really was a confession.

Shen Zemu had confessed to her the moment she had switched her interest onto other things.

Xiang Nuan had seen a lot of regretful love stories on TV or in novels. But this was the first time in her life that she had experienced the so called “missed each other.”

When Xiang Nuan liked him, he didn’t want to see her. When Xiang Nuan had gradually gone pass him, he came by to tell her that he likes her.

To Xiang Nuan, his ‘like’ came too late……

Xiang Nuan felt it was such a shame and was saddened by it.

You’re Beautiful When You Smile
Chapter 70 Part 2

During the duration of her father’s phone call, the only words Tong Yao said were “en,” “ah,” “oh,” “I know,” or “I was wrong.” The only long sentence she had said was immediately retorted by her father. She had no choice but to remain silent for the remainder of the phone call. Before hanging up, her father asked her a question which finally proved to her that her parents hadn’t found her at some trash dump: “Did you get hurt?”

The concern in those words suddenly moved Tong Yao to tears. After she told him that she was fine, her father added one more warning before hanging up: “Don’t cause any more trouble.” Lu Sicheng and her other teammates walked into the rest area right afterwards. Tong Yao took a glance at her stone faced captain and suddenly had a revelation— —

It seems that all men in the world knew how to play the “carrot after stick” trick.

Lu Sicheng found his own coffee mug, sipped some coffee, and turned around to see the team’s mid staring at him with her black and white eyes. He paused and asked: “What are you looking at?”

Tong Yao numbly turned her eyes away.

Lu Sicheng asked Xiao Rui: “What’s wrong with her?”

Xiao Rui: “You guys played the match for 40 minutes and she was lectured by her father for 40 minutes.”

Lu Sicheng raised his eyebrows.

Xiao Rui added: “Her biological dad.”

Lu Sicheng’s eyebrows flattened.

……

Lu Yue was doing an interview outside because he had earned MVP for the second match. Tong Yao walked out of the rest area to stand in the passageway to listen. She heard the host ask Lu Yue how he was feeling coming back onto the stage— —

“Pretty good.” She could hear the smile in Lu Yue’s voice. “That’s why I play a new champion that I’ve been training with.”

“That’s right. It was a real surprise today when you suddenly took out Twisted Fate who doesn’t really match your usual style. So it was something you’ve prepared for a while now?”

“En. Not really. It’s just that our data analyst— —” Shouts and screams came from the audience; some were shouting Ming god’s name. Lu Yue laughed then continued: “Our data analyst told me that a Chinese mid has to know how to use this champion, otherwise I’d lose face. So I practiced him.”

“So that means Smiling can play Twisted Fate as well?”

“Yeah, she plays Twisted Fate well. Actually, I always feel that she seems to play everyone well. In the beginning, she wasn’t good with Azir, but she got a handle with him a bit later.”

“Oh, it looks like there’s not much tension between player and substitute on our ZGDX team— —”

“There’s no tension at all. We have different styles…...Maybe today some people will think that, after seeing my performance, I shouldn’t be just a substitute or something. But the fact is that for now she is more suitable than me to be the main player. Though I’ll be stronger later on, that’s for sure.”

“Looks like this is the reply Lu Yue would say in response to doubts being posted online.”

“I trust my teammates’ ability to make the right decision. If there’s anything I want, I’ll fight for it on my own.”

Tong Yao concluded after hearing the interview that Lu Yue was truly protective of his brother. Then Tong Yao put on her jacket and went to gather their stuff to go to the parking lot— —There were many fans who had waited there right after the match was over and media reporters as well— —Usually there were only fans, but today even reporters were there too. The crowd looked rather large.

When those reporters saw Tong Yao, they excitedly ran over with their cameras. A swarm of camera lenses and microphones were stretched right under her nose— —

“What do think about the suspension this time?”

Tong Yao: “I deserved it.”

“Don’t you feel that you’re being treated unfairly? People said that you did it because you were protecting your teammates!”

Tong Yao: “I don’t feel it’s unfair.”

“Tell us, tell us.”

Tong Yao: “Tell you what?”

“Are you worried that you’ll be replaced by Lu Yue?”

Tong Yao: “I’m only suspended for one match.”

Those Sweet Times
Chapter 58 Part 1

On Valentine's Day, Xiang Nuan ate takeouts for every meal of the day. Her parents were annoyed that all she did was play games and went out by themselves instead of taking her along.

Xiang Nuan figured that it made sense that a couple would go on a date on Valentine’s day and the person who was single would stay home eating takeout.

During the day, Xiang Nuan received a large bouquet of lilies. The flowers were fresh, beautiful,  and had a pleasant fragrance.

The delivery girl didn’t say who the bouquet was from and Xiang Nuan couldn’t find a card on the flowers either.

Why did the sender want to stay anonymous?

Xiang Nuan took a picture of the bouquet and posted it to her friends: Who sent this?

Three people claimed that it was from them, but Lin Chuyan wasn’t among the three.

Xiang Nuan left a private message for Lin Chuyan: Why haven’t you given me a thumbs up yet today?

After a little while, Lin Chuyan replied: I didn’t see it.

Then he immediately gave a thumbs up.

Xiang Nuan thought the flower probably wasn’t from Lin Chuyan. Somehow, she felt a little disappointed and deleted the picture.

Lin Chuyan gave her a red envelope.

Lin Chuyan: Don’t be angry.

Xiang Nuan: Who’s angry. = =

Xiang Nuan accepted Lin Chuyan’s red envelope and returned one to him with the same amount: Happy holiday.

Lin Chuyan used the money to buy a box of chocolate. After returning home, he opened the box and started to eat the chocolate while playing with Xiang Nuan.

Xiang Nuan could tell Lin Chuyan had something in his mouth whenever he spoke and asked him: What are you eating?

“Chocolate.”

“Who gave it to you?”

Lin Chuyan thought to himself: You did.

But instead said: “Guess.”

Xiang Nuan figured that there was a lot of people after Lin Chuyan and it wasn’t strange that he would receive chocolate from someone. Despite that, she felt somewhat jealous and brushed him off: “I don’t want to guess. Don’t you have anything better to do?”

Lin Chuyan asked her: “Would you like to have some?”

“Hmph, not at all.”

After playing for a while longer, Xiang Nuan heard Lin Chuyan chomp on another piece of chocolate. She unconsciously spoke her real feelings out loud: “I really want to eat chocolate too.”

Lin Chuyan’s voice sounded happy and said in a low voice: “Go buy some yourself.”

Xiang Nuan harrumphed. What kind of suggestion was that? Buying chocolate for herself on a Valentine’s day…...She may be single, but she still had pride.

Someone up there must have heard Xiang Nuan’s deepest wishes. Another delivery arrived.

This time it was a box.

Xiang Nuan took off the wrapping and excitingly stared at the exquisite box. Finally, after waiting for a whole day, she also received a box of chocolate! She was pretty sure it was a box full of chocolates! Without a doubt!

She expectantly opened the box.

The inside of the box was beautifully decorated with gold foil paper and contain 6 pieces of……

Uhr?

Xiang Nuan didn’t want to admit that they were chocolates

The dark brown chocolate pieces were made to look like a pile of poop.

Ahhh, who would make chocolate into this kind of shape? ! It didn’t make sense!

Why would anyone would send this to her as a gift unless they wanted to hurt her feelings……

It was sad enough already that she was single, why did she have to be insulted like this.

She was so upset that she wanted to take a picture of the chocolates, send it to her friends, and trash whoever sent this to her. But she was afraid that her friends would laugh at her, especially Lin Chuyan. They were both single but he had received sweet chocolate while all she got was poop……

Starlight Has No Past
Chapter 45 Part 1

Ye Qiao had begun to settle down. Zhou Tingsheng lightly kissed her eyes and forced a smile on his face: “What is there to cry about? I’m not interested in a underage kid.” He glanced at her and whispered in her ear: “I only like someone just like you.”
His alluring voice was hard for Ye Qiao to resist. Zhou Tingsheng continued whispering in her ear trying to defuse the tension.

As her tears dried, Ye Qiao could hear her own heart pumping. Many faces were flashing through her mind. The girl seemed familiar to her, but was too exhausted from using up most of her strength earlier to continue the thought. When she woke up again, it was like another world was waiting for her.

Something was floating outside the window.
Zhou Tingsheng held her in his arms and lightly said: “It’s snowing outside.”
The first snow of the year, finally fell before Chinese New Year.

Ye Qiao was still in a daze: “That night, the noise that I heard…...it wasn’t you?”
Zhou Tingsheng tried to recall the night and deciphered what she meant: “No, it wasn’t. Her life style isn’t that good and no matter how hard I try to discipline her, it’s been of little use. That day, I happened to be there to see it myself.”

No wonder Qianxi heard the sound of fighting next door that day. The wounds on his face that night were probably because of the fight. Ye Qiao remembered their encounter in the drug store. Suddenly, she realized how blinded she was by jealousy and broke out into a chuckle.

Zhou Tongsheng however was a bit frustrated seeing her mood change: “Don’t you want to know something else?” Though he wasn’t sure where to begin explaining the complicated connections they all shared.
Ye Qiao shook her head: “It’s enough for me. I don’t need to know more.”
“Now you’re so understanding?” Zhou Tingsheng kept teasing her and pretended to be bitter: “Earlier, I thought you’re going to torture me.”

Ye Qiao pinched him: “I didn’t even scratch you…...It was I who was in pain.”
She blushed after saying that, even her ears were slightly pink. Zhou Tingsheng put her hand over his heart and spoke exaggeratedly: “When my Qiaoqiao is in pain, I’m in pain as well.”
“How glib-tongued you are.”
……

It snowed all night. By the next morning, everything was covered in a layer of white frost.
In this pure white world, all jealousy and sins seemed easily forgivable.

Ye Qiao held a cup of hot coffee with both hands and stood in front of the window. Her nose was a little stuffy, the aftereffects of catching a cold last night. Zhou Tingsheng was rifling through drawers trying to find cold medicine for her, but couldn’t find any. Zhou Tingsheng was in good health and seldom got sick with a cold. He had more medicine for injuries and wounds than other basic medicines. He put a down jacket on Ye Qiao and took Desa with them to the drug store.

The drug store was within walking distance from his apartment.
Desa wore the little boots which Ye Qiao had bought for her, happily treading in the snow. Their breath quickly froze into a white mist.

After they picked up cold medicine, Zhou Tingsheng went to pay for it. Ye Qiao waited for him outside with Desa. She heard two office workers standing there gossiping about the entertainment circle.
-- --They say the password to Z producer’s iCloud account was leaked. A bunch of nudes were exposed. There’s a lot of actresses in the pictures.
-- --Wow, it’s just like when someone got his computer repaired and the stuff stored on it go exposed.
-- --Exactly. They said that new movie which they’re promoting lately, <Innocent City>? Quite a few actresses in that movie are in those pictures.
-- --Really? It can’t be Pei Xindan and Ye Qiao?
-- --Not those two. The person in the early photos isn’t that famous, Zhao something. But this morning, a big star gets exposed, Xu Yinshan. Can you believe it!

Starlight Has No Past
Chapter 44 Part 3

Ye Qiao called Qianxi. After a brief greeting, she asked: “Is the young lady next door pretty?”
“Young lady?” Qianxi was surprised by the question. “Oh, you mean that high school girl? She’s good looking. I figured she could be the prettiest one in her grade.”
Ye Qiao said: “Heart-shaped face, big eyes, about 165cm high, no glasses, is that her?”
“......Yeah.” Qianxi was suspicious. “Why are you asking about her?”
“It’s nothing. I’m hanging up.”

Ye Qiao suddenly lost all courage to get to the bottom of it and abruptly hung up. She curled up into a ball, held her knees, and felt like sleeping.
It was so cold that she had goosebumps on her skin and shivered from time to time. When she closed her eyes, she was back to the night she first met Zhou Tingsheng. The shower in the old building was switching between cold and hot. She could still hear the heavy breathing and moaning in her ears. She had long forgotten what exactly was said, but she remembered that they were rather obscene.
She had thought that it was a thing in the past, who knew that they were far from passing.

She maintained her position and gradually fell asleep in the coldness. In her dream, she began to warm up.
She felt the bed slightly sink and instantly woke up. It was already deep into the night. There was a dim wall lamp right above Zhou Tingsheng’s bed. Without her knowing it, Zhou Tingsheng had carried her back to his apartment. But she felt that she was owed an explanation.

Zhou Tingsheng had discovered the change of her breathing pattern. His arm lightly circled her waist: “You awake?” He smiled with obvious forced casualness: “It’s so cold, yet you slept so soundly.”


Ye Qiao abruptly turned around to face him and asked a direct question: “The young lady today is the student your family has been sponsoring?”
“En.” He didn’t want to lie.
However, her second question struck home: “Is it your family, or you?”
Zhou Tingsheng was quiet for a moment then said: “It’s me.”
Ye Qiao was unusually calm: “That night when I first met you, you just came out from her home, right?”
“......Yes.” He began to hesitate.

Ye Qiao was very sensitive by his reaction. His slight hesitation was interpreted by her wildest imaginations. She pounced at him; Zhou Tingsheng, taken by surprise, fell backwards onto the bed. Ye Qiao sat over him, both hands starting to touch his body.
Her hands slowly went down his body, slowly taking off his pajamas inch by inch. Zhou Tingsheng called her: “Qiaoqiao.” He was trying to get up but she pushed him back down. She bent over and gave him a harsh kiss; she bit his lips and then said: “Isn’t this your most favorite thing to do?”

Zhou Tingsheng could feel her anger and carefully responded to her kiss. He stroked her back in an attempt to calm her down. The bitterness and anger finally turned into tears in her eyes. A big teardrop fell on Zhou Tingsheng’s eye. His eyelashes quivered. Ye Qiao watched him blink his eyes and suddenly sobbed out loud.

“Qiaoqiao……” Zhou Tingsheng called for her in a hoarse voice, trying to calm her down. But Ye Qiao grew sadder as she cried until she grew tired of crying and laid on Zhou Tingsheng’s body, motionless.

“Don’t cry, don’t cry. Listen to me, I’ll explain everything.” Zhou Tingsheng patted her back. “She’s still a kid, how can there be anything between us?”
Women from 16 to 60 were the same, they were infatuated in the men they liked. The way Ruan Feiyan looked at Zhou Tingsheng was still clearly imprinted in Ye Qiao’s mind. Her fingernails dug into his flesh without even realizing it.
Zhou Tingsheng grunted from the sharp pain and grabbed her hands. He turned around to look right into her eyes: “Qiaoqiao, you must believe me.”

You’re Beautiful When You Smile
Chapter 70 Part 1

Tong Yao followed Lu Shicheng out of the room. Lu Yue happened to be outside and Tong Yao grabbed his uniform to pull him back: “Play well. Don’t screw it up. Don’t be timid, just do it.”

“What’s wrong?” Lu Yue was confused. “You’re going to retire?”

Lu Yue looked at Lu Shicheng as he walked ahead of them: “Did you crush her will?”

Before Lu Sicheng was able to respond, Tong Yao slapped Lu Yue’s back: “Nonsense. If we win this match, we’ll have won every match so far. Didn’t you seen those people outside— — waving the fluorescent sticks? That’s the glory I helped create with my own hands……”

Lu Yue: “And with foot you kicked it all away and paid 120K for it.”

Tong Yao: “......”

Lu Sicheng: “You two are too chatty.”

Lu Sicheng pulled Lu Yue’s jacket out of Tong Yao’s grip. Then Lu Sicheng pushed her back into the room, head first— —After the emotional soul searching talk with Lu Sicheng, Tong Yao felt more relaxed now, the burden on her heart seemed to have lightened. She went back to the rest area to sit with the staff and watch the match on the big screen. To tell the truth, after the lecture from Lu Sicheng, she was now more afraid that Lu Yue would fail this round.

Especially if they lost the match because Lu Yue couldn’t coordinate well with his teammates. If that happened, she felt compelled to kneel down and kowtow to her teammates to apologize— —

Tong Yao was quite nervous sitting in front of the live broadcast. The first thing Red Arrow did when the second match started was to ban Twisted Fate. Because Red Arrow also needed to prevent Lu Sicheng from picking Kalista and teaming up with Little Fatty’s Alista in bot, that they weren't able to ban Azir. Lu Yue got to pick Azir as his champion.

ZGDX’s mid lane effectively had a third turret now.

Tong Yao breathed a sigh of relief after Lu Yue got Azir. She leaned back in the chair and watched the match attentively while chatting with Xiao Rui: “What’s the story about Lu Yue’s Twisted Fate?”

Xiao Rui turned to take a look at Ming god and pointed his chin at the smiling man: “Ask him.”

Tong Yao looked at Ming god. He explained with the same smile: “I taught him. I told him any professional Chinese mid has to know how to play Twisted Fate, a jungler just has to know Lee Sin. The older generation of players practically established this fact— —They’re traditionally strong champions which has nothing to do with the edition of the game. One of these days, we’ll take these champions back to the world stage.”

Tong Yao: “I haven’t seen Lu Yue play him before.”

Min god: “Twisted Fate doesn’t match his style, so he generally doesn’t play— — But once he uses it, it’d be his trump card.  It’s proof that he cares about this match very much.”

Xiao Rui: “True. After all, it’s the fight to decide who’ll be the one staying behind to watch the drinking fountain.”

Min god: “Xiao Rui, don’t go and scare Tong Yao— —But it’s true that Lu Yue wasn’t willing to learn Twisted Fate until I said to him ‘see how smoothly Tong Yao plays Twisted Fate.’”

Tong Yao: “......”

Tong Yao rolled her eyes.

At the beginning of the match, the broadcast was focused on bot because there was more action there. But Tong Yao’s attention was focused on the mini map in the lower right hand corner. She was keeping her eyes on Azir’s profile in the mid— —

Suddenly her cell phone vibrated, she pulled out her phone and discovered that the caller was her father. Tong Yao didn’t think too much about it and answered the phone. Before she could greet him, her dad began lecturing her— — The core contents of his reprimand were “I sent you to play games not to have a fight” “You haven’t even kept the first month’s pay in your pocket for long, now you’ll lose an additional 60K” “Is there something wrong with your brain, a girl having a fight with others?” and etc.

Tong Yao: “......”

Though her parents didn’t frequent the internet, her brother was a different story. She had been wondering yesterday why she hadn’t heard from her family at all and her brother hadn’t told on her yet, it was his favorite thing to do after all……

So her family was waiting for the right moment to give her the ultimate blow.

After Lu Sicheng’s lecturing, Tong Yao got another rebuking from her own father. Tong Yao was a bit overwhelmed. She had her eyes fixed on the screen while holding her cell phone up to her ear, but what went into the left ear went right out the right ear— —The match lasted 40 minutes and her dad’s phone call lasted 40 minutes. When Lu Sicheng and his teammates were pushing Red Arrow’s base, her father had just reached his conclusion— —

One of the conclusions was a familiar one: What sort of man would marry you if you act this way.

Tong Yao: “......I’m quite happy living by myself.”

Tong Yao’s dad: “You dare talk back.”

Those Sweet Times
Chapter 57 Part 4

Xiang Nuan checked the contents of the message, there was only three words: Go for it.

This piqued Xiang Nuan’s curiosity. She sent a reply: Is this that Invincible?

-Invincible-: Yes. =  =

It’s Nuannuan: Thank you. I’ll do my best.

-Invincible-: By the way, whether you believe it or not, I have to remind you that Lin Chuyan is a nutcase and a pervert.

It’s Nuannuan: I know. =  =

Xiang Nuan told her teammates about the challenge from the Physical Education Institute. After they reached consensus, she issued a statement on Weibo: Team Times has only one goal in mind and that is to win the championship. 

With such an ambitious announcement, they brushed off the challenge easily.

Xiang Nuan felt like since she had been with Lin Chuyan long enough, she had also learned how to be pretentious……

— —

The competition on the provincial level was entirely online, best two out of three. It would be held for two days, from the ninth to the tenth of the first month of the New Year. Each team was randomly matched up against another team.

Xiang Nuan checked the official site the first thing in the morning of the eighth and discovered that the first team that Nanshan University was up against happened to be…...Nanshan Institute of Physical Education.

Ha?

The first match would be against the rival of their university?

Xiang Nuan felt the pressure to win the first match doubled after their announcement.

Xiang Nuan’s mind wandered off as she held onto her cell phone.

Suddenly, Min Lili sent her a message: Nuannuan, go for it!

Xiang Nuan: En, en!

Min Lili: Today is Valentine’s Day.

Xiang Nuan glanced at the calendar, it was February 14th.

Min Lili: Have you received any chocolate?

A face came into her head when she heard Min Lili’s question.

The face was handsome, with smiling eyes and lips that were slightly curled upwards, as if asking her: Do you want my chocolate?

Xiang Nuan rubbed her heated face and thought to herself, stop having all these random thoughts, concentrate on the competition.
