Chapter 338: Chapter 338
As soon as Su Ang’s voice appeared, the comments section exploded.
[--Did I hear wrong? Was that the voice of Commander Su Ang?]
[--Ahhhh—Brother Dog and Su Ang’s second collaboration?]
[--Isn’t this the instance being tackled by the Gong Family Army? Why is Su Ang here too? Is he here to help?]
Seeing this question in the comments, Su Ang calmly explained, "I’m her fixed teammate, the kind that doesn’t change."
Qian Qi turned her head and looked at him in surprise.
"Fixed teammate?" She seemed to finally understand something, "So, the reason there are no Command Department students among my remaining teammates is because of you?"
"Mm..." Su Ang responded, while discreetly observing her expression, lightly probing, "You don’t want that?"
"Not really." Qian Qi shook her head, "Just a little surprised."
Clearly, he could have shed the idol’s aura to lead a relaxed and free life, yet he still chose to step in front of the screen... Did he suddenly feel reluctant, or was it for some other reason?
Like Su Xingchen wanting him to build a good relationship with her to gain some secrets he wanted to know?
Thinking of this, Qian Qi silently moved aside a bit, maintaining some distance from Su Ang.
It’s said that handsome men are always liars, so if Su Ang and Su Xingchen are combined, they would be double the liars; she doesn’t want to be tricked into losing everything but the system.
Seeing Qian Qi discreetly move aside, Su Ang’s eyelashes fluttered, then he lowered his eyes, "I just wanted to be friends with you, that’s why I came."
At some point, his gaze had always locked onto her, which made him realize that although she seemed to have good relations with everyone, her heart was actually quite distant from everyone.
Previously, in Sealed City, Sikong Wang sincerely said that some things were more important than money and that no matter what, the Sikong family would spare no effort for Qian Qi’s requests, but Qian Qi clearly rejected that kind of emotional bonding, only wanting to maintain a monetary transaction between them.
It was then he understood that although Qian Qi appeared open and approachable without any barriers, in reality, her sense of propriety was so heavy that it was almost emotionless. She refused deep exchanges, rejected emotional entanglements, and only wanted to use money and interests to maintain basic interpersonal relationships.
Relationships maintained by money and interests, though tight, are cold, whereas relationships maintained by emotions, though easily scattered, are warm.
Qian Qi clearly belonged to the former, and he belonged to the latter.
He wanted to be closer to Qian Qi, not because of money and interests, but simply to be friends who could share joy and sorrow.
He wanted to know her better.
So he had to be more honest, "Really, really want to be friends with you, that’s why I came."
The silver-haired youth’s tone was very calm, yet it was imbued with a sincerity and fervor comparable to that of Sikong Wang at that time, making Qian Qi feel a strange tingling sensation shoot up from her spine to her brain, setting off loud alarms.
She silently took a step back, wanting to run, but Su Ang quickly grabbed her collar, "Why run?"
"I’m not running, who’s running." Qian Qi stubbornly stuck her neck out, "My feet didn’t move!"
Su Ang did not engage in a verbal debate with her, just smiled lightly with his starry eyes and released his hand, "As long as you don’t run, it’s fine."
Qian Qi clenched her fist, taking a while to calm down the alarms in her head, muttering softly, "Isn’t maintaining a simple monetary transaction good?"
"Not good," Su Ang said, pulling a pack of sandwich cookies out of his pocket and handing it to her, "I’m a bit greedy."
Qian Qi lowered her eyes to look at the cookies and suddenly realized that there always seemed to be snacks when Su Ang was around.
The time she went to his house, he specifically brought a plate of snacks; when they went to Sikong Wang’s house, he had Sikong Wang make snacks himself. Last time at the Black Water Field, she accidentally glimpsed that his coat pocket was full of cookies and candies, and also the two candies he gave her that day...
When did this all start?
Qian Qi stared at the cookie, pondering when exactly Su Ang began using this method to close the gap between them.
Seeing her staring at the cookie without speaking or moving, Su Ang raised his hand to tear open the wrapper and handed it to her again, "It’s opened."
Looking at the delicious sandwich cookie, Qian Qi desperately suppressed the urge to take it.
Accepting this cookie would clearly mean agreeing to his "friend request."
On the side, Han Yali, who was quite gossipy, leaned over, "Senior Su, are you and Qian close? Have you known each other before?"
"Hmm... not that long." Su Ang mused, waving the cookie in front of Qian Qi’s eyes. "As for being close or not, it depends on how she sees it."
Han Yali then turned to look at Qian Qi, evidently curious about this answer.
"Consider it close, after all, we’ve eaten together, and he’s stayed over at my house to sleep." Qian Qi’s eyes followed the cookie back and forth, focusing on whether to accept this "cookie," and she didn’t realize she’d said something earth-shattering.
When she realized that the friend request could wait for later and that the cookie could be eaten first, she quickly reached out to grab the cookie, but Su Ang retracted his arm and directly bit into the cookie from the wrapper.
Her suddenly idle hands wanted desperately to choke Su Ang.
She should have just pretended to know nothing and eaten the cookie! ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ N()velFire.net
Su Ang chewed on the sweet cookie, the corner of his lips forming a subtle smile, playfully repeating her answer, "Yes, we’ve eaten together, and I’ve stayed over at her house to sleep."
The moment Qian Qi snapped out of her realization and recalled what she had carelessly answered, she was so frightened she quickly covered her mouth.
And listening to this exchange, all the viewers in the livestream went wild.
[--What did I just hear! They’ve even slept on the same bed!]
[--So they’ve known each other for a while! They are good brothers!]
[--No wonder they were inseparable during the last instance, when Brother Dog fell into the Poisonous Python’s stomach, the first one to go find him was Su Ang, and Su Ang also had Brother Dog wait for him at the original place~]
[--Brotherly love, I really ship it, wishing you two a long-lasting friendship!]
[--Cleaning up Leopard: Tch, so what if he’s stayed over at Brother Dog’s house, I’ve been to Brother Dog’s house to sleep too, Brother Dog has also been to my house to sleep!]
[--The guy above, Leopard Brother, are you crazy? Brother Dog went to your house to sleep? Are you lying?]
[--Cleaning up Leopard: Hmph, believe it or not.]
Qian Qi opened the homepage of Cleaning up Leopard and discovered it was a new account, but the IP address was in Qing City, and had awarded him lots of big rockets, a super rich account.
Clicking the avatar, it was a panther’s tail, looking exactly like Bai Yin’s.
This Leopard Brother, should be Sikong Wang.
Qian Qi immediately followed Sikong Wang back.
This follow immediately notified everyone following her. Seeing Brother Dog following "Cleaning up Leopard," wasn’t it clear that they knew each other, and that Leopard Brother was telling the truth?
Suddenly a large number of viewers at Leopard Brother, asking him who Brother Dog really was, whether Brother Dog was handsome, why Brother Dog was so awesome, etc.
This scared Sikong Wang, who was far away in Qing City, into muting quietly and not daring to say anything.
Qian Qi chuckled softly, "Serves you right for being talkative."
Su Ang pondered while looking at the comments, and on the side, Sheng Qing, who had been dozing, now squinted his eyes at the two, also deep in thought.
