Chapter 989: Xu Che’s Side 1 – Was This Child the Devil?
The saddest thing in life was that he was already in his early 30s, but he had a baby face that looked like he was in his early 20s.
As the chief assistant to the CEO of zhongteng, Xu Che had a seven-figure annual income, a house, and a car. He was clearly at the age to start a family, but he did not even see the shadow of a girlfriend.
As the little princess of the Sheng family grew up, Sheng Xiao returned home earlier and earlier.
This also meant that Xu Che had more and more free time.
Actually, this was Mu Qiqi’s intention. Xu Che should have found someone to accompany him a long time ago.
It was another boring night. Xu Che was called home by his older brother for dinner. In actual fact, it was to arrange a blind date for him.
The other party was an English teacher who had stayed overseas. When she heard of Xu Che’s good traits, she wanted to meet him. However, when she saw him, she immediately stood up and left.
It was rumored that Xu Che was already thirty-two years old, but the young man in front of her was barely an adult, wasn’t he?
He was very handsome, but…
What women couldn’t stand the most was looking older than the people around them. This was also the reason why she had left like that.
“Brother, can you stop making such arrangements?” Xu Che was very helpless.
“I’m thinking about your happiness.” A voice came from the kitchen.
“Where’s Yang Yang?” Xu Che began to change the topic and looked around for his nephew.
“Recently, he’s become addicted to games. He doesn’t even eat anymore…” his brother answered as he cooked.
Xu Che pushed open his nephew’s room door and saw that he was holding his phone and frantically tapping on the screen.
“Oh… I dropped a star again.” The obedient little boy looked up and when he saw Xu Che, he immediately jumped up. “Hurry up and help me play games. Help me rank and get stars.”
Xu Che frowned and took the phone. This child had been especially addicted to mobile games recently.
King of Glory, a very popular game recently. Adults and children could play just by sitting on the sofa for half an hour. It was indeed very relaxing.
He was, after all, the mighty assistant of Zhongteng. His skills were extraordinary, but now he was being used by his nephew to play games?
“If I help you get stars, will you obediently eat your meal?” Xu Che asked the child in his arms.
“I promise.”
Xu Che put down the child and seriously looked at the game’s controls. “What hero do you usually use?”
“Luban…” the child scratched his head and laughed. “Because he’s a primary school student. It suits my temperament!”
Xu Che shook his head helplessly. Then, he saw Han Xin in his hero pool. “Did you spend money?”
“No, I didn’t. I saved up for a long time before I got a crystal to exchange for it,” the child quickly explained. “Recently, a young lady added me as a friend because she said that I’m so cute… She even invited me just now. I don’t want to play with her.”
Xu Che sat down on the child’s bed. Then, he saw someone take his rank.
The username was: Win or Lose. The avatar is a cute little chubby girl. This is probably the young lady that the child mentioned.
Xu Che agreed to form a double team and entered the hero selection screen.
The kid’s hero pool was very small. It was probably because he didn’t have enough pocket money. Other than Arthur Luban, there was only Han Xin.
Usually, the kid used Luban to practice, so Han Xin had almost no proficiency.
Xu Che instantly chose Han Xin. When the kid saw it, he immediately panicked. “Uncle, you know it, right? You know Han Xin, right?”
“Your father is calling you. Hurry up and go.” Xu Che didn’t like to play games when there were people chattering non-stop, so he sent the child away.
“Then play well. I can’t drop any further…” the child told Xu Che as he left the room.
Xu Che didn’t say anything. He saw a message. “Little Brat, choosing Han Xin? Hurry up and change back to Ludan.”
Not only that, she also instantly chose Li Bai.
Xu Che did not move at all. He did not intend to pay any attention to the other party.
“Be good. Switch back to the primary school student. I’ll take you and we’ll fly.”
The one on the third floor said, “Damn, he’s really a primary school student.”
“Let’s go for a 60-point throw.”
“The two assassins will definitely lose.”
This was how low-end games were. Xu Che pretended not to see it at all. He originally wanted to directly block this game and deal with it. However, for some reason, when he saw Li Bai, Xu Che resisted the urge to block it and waited for the game to start instead.
After the game started, Xu Che saw Li Bai squatting in the grass with the blue buff. A long line of words was sent to Xu Che. “Primary school student, follow me or hide in the grass. It’s safe this way!”
Xu Che couldn’t take it anymore and replied, “You talk too much.”
After saying that, Xu Che went straight to the enemy’s wild area and squatted in the grass of the river. After the enemy’s assassins were almost done fighting, he immediately went forward and took the Duff. Then, he jumped back into the river without looking back.
As this was a low-level game, there was almost no cooperation between teammates. Therefore, with just a little alertness from the enemy team, they would be able to attack their high ground in six minutes.
Throughout the entire process, the teammates were cursing.
“Han Xin is trash. He doesn’t even join the team.”
“Han Xin is an assassin. He doesn’t even know how to capture people.”
“Everyone is dead, but Han Xin is still fighting in the wild.”
However, at this moment, Li Bai stood up and said to the other three teammates, “What’s wrong with the primary school student? Aren’t you guys still in the Silver Level? I brought the elementary school student here. If he needs scolding, I’ll scold. Who are you guys to do it?”
“I’m not fighting anymore. I’m hanging up!”
The three teammates all hung up together without even discussing it.
Then, Li Bai stood at the foot of the tower and said bitterly, “A group of adults are even worse than my little Ludan. Even the primary school student knows that we should never give up.”
Xu Che was speechless.
“Little Ludan, be good. This game is over. We still have another one coming!”
Xu Che insisted on fighting in the wild. Very soon, he dropped his third piece of equipment and began to crouch down on the other side in various places. One kill, two kills. Even if it was four against nine, he would not lose so easily.
Following that, he snatched the dragon from the position of the ruler and exhausted all of the other party’s HP to return home.
Then, he took the next route. If one enemy came, one would die. If two came, two would die.
And just like that, Li Bai stood under his own crystal and saw Xu Che’s beautiful flower.
“Sob, sob, sob, you’re not the little Ludan I know. Who are you?”
Fifteen minutes later, the game ended. The three people who had hung up were probably dumbfounded. They had won out of nowhere.
Then, Xu Che returned the phone to his nephew to show off his battle results. “Can we eat properly now?”
The little brat was happy to see the battle results. He said to Xu Che, “Let me tell you a secret. This young lady is the lady boss of the dessert shop at the entrance of the residential area. She’s a little chubby, but she’s very cute.”
“If you think she’s not bad, then marry her and she’ll become my aunt. It’s okay if she’s a little chubby. The most important thing is that the desserts at her house are really delicious.”
Xu Che was speechless. Was this child the Devil? Was he selling out his uncle’s happiness just to eat?
Even so, when Xu Che left his brother’s neighborhood, he paid special attention to the dessert shop at the entrance. The shop was called Tangerine’s Nest.
The decoration was bright and cute in a youthful style. It was very popular with children.
Xu Che subconsciously looked inside. He saw a girl with a bun on her head sitting on a chair and playing games. She was indeed chubby, but her skin was surprisingly good. She looked a little round and cute.
He also recognized the avatar in the game. It was herself.
It was winter. Xu Che stood at the entrance of the dessert shop. After a while, two employees walked out with small pieces of Napoleon cake in their hands. “Sir, do you want to try?”
Xu Che took the small piece of dessert and put it in his mouth. No wonder the child liked it.
“Give me one piece. I’ll take it.”
“Yes, sir. Please follow me.”
Xu Che followed behind the dessert shop assistant, but his gaze was on the window seat.
She was so addicted to games. Wasn’t she afraid that the shop would collapse?
“Sir, our strawberry cake is also very delicious.”
“Let’s have one each.” Xu Che didn’t know where his curiosity came from, to actually have such a strong interest in that round little Li Bai.
He felt that he must have been possessed, so after getting the cake, he turned around and left. However, at that moment, a man entered.
Then, Xu Che heard the sound of someone banging the table. “Xiao Yi, what do you mean? You promised to send 100,000 yuan to Big Brother. Where’s the money? You’re so good at supporting that pretty boy. Why are you so stingy with your family?”
Xu Che turned around, only to see the girl finally put down her phone and stand up. “I worked hard to earn this money. I’m happy to give it to whoever I want!”
“You’re supporting a loser. If he likes you, I wouldn’t say anything. But he’s just using you, don’t you see? You sent him to participate in the training of professional gamers. You spent a lot of money, but in the end? After he became famous, does he still recognize you?”
The man was tall and thin, but he was full of energy.
He grabbed the girl’s hand and kept pulling, “It’s because you’re fat. I told you to eat less and give the money to me, but you didn’t listen.”
The girl’s eyes reddened. She wanted to break free from his shackles, but the difference in strength between men and women was too great.
“Give me the money. I’ll take the money and leave!”
“I don’t have it!” The girl cried out.
When the man heard this, he wanted to make a move, but Xu Che grabbed his wrist. “You shouldn’t hit a woman.”
When the man saw Xu Che’s baby face, he immediately smiled and said, “Kid, how old are you? Learn to mind your own business…” Before he could finish his sentence, the man’s body had already flown out of the dessert shop.
Holding her phone, Xiao Yi watched this scene with widened eyes.
Was he some kind of Superman?
However, Xu Che’s expression was calm as he asked Xiao Yi, “Are you alright?”
Xiao Yi held her wrist and shook her head. “Thank you, I’m fine.”
“You should call the police.”
“The police can’t do anything about it. Although I don’t want to admit it, he’s my brother. I’ve made a fool out of myself today,” Xiao Yi said apologetically to Xu Che. “To show my apology, I’ll give you all the pastries in the shop today.”
Xu Che didn’t care about her pastries. He just looked at her phone on the floor and said, “You’re about to be reported.”
Xiao Yi immediately squatted. “Ah, ah, ah, my qualifying match.”
What was this? She could give him the cake, but she couldn’t lose the game?
Moreover, she had just been troubled by her gangster brother. Now, she was completely focused on the game?
Did all the fat people in the world have this special ability? Forgetting things really fast?
It’s cute, though.
