Looking at the other person's retreating figure, Lin Qi wanted to say, "How could I possibly lay a hand on you? With your two older sisters leading the way, you little bean sprout, it's not your time yet."
Lin Qi couldn't help but think about the other person's two older sisters. Normally, the other person shouldn't be doing too badly, unless they were like his own Xiaoping, whose nutrition was taken away by their older sisters, preventing them from growing up. In that case, it would be a different story.
At this moment, Lin Qi couldn't help but think that it was impossible; such a thing was unlikely to happen.
Lin Qi could only silently pray that things wouldn't turn out this way. After all, being an average player was enough for him; he still preferred playing basketball.
"Ha Qiu".
In a luxury apartment, a pretty but unremarkable girl in casual clothes sneezed at that moment.
At this moment, Yukino had a strange feeling that someone was talking badly about her. The person who was talking badly about her was definitely Lin Qi.
Yukino isn't the type to do these kinds of things or have these kinds of fantasies, but she can't help it. Sneezing for no reason is definitely not right, not to mention that she's experienced this before, even when that guy talked about her behind her back, saying she was mediocre. So she has experience with this. If she feels this way again now, it's definitely because that bastard is badmouthing her again.
Even if I didn't say it out loud, I was definitely thinking it to myself. Thinking about it makes me really uncomfortable.
Even if Yukino told him directly that it was someone else who was behind it, she had no evidence and could only keep quiet.
Lin Qi spent the rest of the night dealing with all sorts of people approaching him, looking at their hypocritical faces. Since he didn't have a direct statement about not eating beef, he pretended to be hypocritical with these people until he finally got rid of the last group of them.
"Hey, busy man, you're finally done."
A white-haired, red-eyed girl approached and spoke with a sly smile, her expression revealing ill intent.
Lin Qi smiled when he saw the other person. His smile was genuine and sincere, without a trace of falsehood.
"Alice."
Lin Qi naturally reached out to hug the other person, but the other person slid away and dodged, leaving Lin Qi with nothing.
Lin Qi paused for a moment, looking at the other person with a puzzled expression as if asking, "What are you doing? Why are you dodging?"
Alice chuckled as she watched the other person freeze in surprise at her unexpected dodge. It was rare to see such disbelief on their face; it was quite amusing...
"Hey, you're the star here today, so you can't ask me to be the female lead. There's someone else who's the female lead. If I were to become your female lead now, I'd steal the show."
Although Alice enjoys causing trouble, she is also quite thoughtful, unlike some arrogant and willful individuals who do whatever they want.
Lin Qi was also surprised that the other party would say such a thing. It was beyond his expectations, and he couldn't help but give the other party a thumbs up in response to what the other party said at this moment.
"As expected of you. But you should know, I don't care about these things."
At this point, Lynch shrugged, indicating that he didn't care and there was absolutely no need for such formalism.
"Oh dear, of course I know you don't care, but I want to help you care a little. Right now I feel like your reputation is already terrible, and being a girl myself, I understand even more that today is the show for those three, so I won't steal the spotlight."
"To avoid having to face the three sisters' targeting. I'm just a poor Alice, and a weak Alice can't withstand the targeting of three sisters."
After Alice finished speaking, 2.4 blinked, put on a pitiful look, and pretended to be a really pitiful little thing.
When Lin Qi saw this scene, he said, "You're having too much screen time, girl. You're such a good actress. Do you look pitiful? I feel like there are two little devil's feet on your head. You're obviously trying to be cute and elevate your image. Do you really think I can't see through you?"
Lin Qi said that this kind of move and routine is outdated.
Chapter 915 This guy can't be dealt with through suppression.
"Alice, I must say your acting is pretty good. Using this method to move people, a normal man would definitely keep praising your image and think you are very sensible and so on. But who am I? Your acting is not up to par. Your eyes did not perfectly express that feeling. Instead, because of your inner emotions, your eyes betrayed you."
"And this is such a huge contrast to his usual performance, it's too deliberate."
At this moment, Lin Qi's thought process was also abnormal, criticizing the other party's terrible acting skills.
Erina watched the interaction between the two and felt speechless. She genuinely felt that she didn't know where to begin complaining about plagiarism. Neither of them were normal people.
Lynch is abnormal to begin with, acting like a stereotypical straight man, and now Alice seems to have some issues too.
Alice was also surprised by someone's comment.
"Oh, I see. Thanks for reminding me. I'll pay attention next time."
"But I was serious about what 12 just said. After all, as a fellow young woman, I know very well that I can't be your leading lady in this kind of situation, hugging and kissing you or anything like that."
"I don't mind in private, but I'm not the main character today, so I need to tone it down."
"As a very sensible person, I am genuinely standing by your side and thinking of your best interests."
"You should thank me for being happy about this. After all, having someone like me who cares about you is something Erina would probably have been drinking a lot of vinegar by now."
Alice's words immediately made the golden retriever cat standing nearby bristle.
Erina was completely dumbfounded at this moment. She hadn't said a word, so how did this fire end up on her again? Do you guys not feel right unless you drag her into the mess every day? You guys are really going too far.
"What does this have to do with me? Who else is jealous? Don't talk nonsense. What kind of behavior does this guy usually have outside? He's always surrounded by women, and he even has a harem in other worlds. I haven't said anything about it. I can only say I'm jealous. You better explain yourself clearly."
Erina immediately went into overreaction and started ranting. "Get up! How dare you say you're jealous? What a joke! If I were really jealous, I would have been flying by now. I know what's going on with this guy all too well. He leaves his genes in every world. I can pretend I don't see it, so why shouldn't I be in a good mood?"
Alice was a little surprised to hear this and looked at the person with a questioning look.
"You have a harem in other other worlds?"
After hearing this, Lin Qi really wanted to ask, "Where did you find out about this?"
"A harem group? What a joke! I'd like to have one too, but where am I supposed to find one? Maybe she could help me put together a group. I'd be very grateful to her and ask her to help me manage it."
Lin Qi's tone was firm and showed no sign of guilt when he said this, which meant that he was speaking from the bottom of his heart and was legally stating that he did not have such a thing and that the other party was just talking nonsense.
Lin Qi was right. How many people are in a regiment? He didn't have that many people. There were only a few in a world. So he couldn't even make a regiment. He wasn't ashamed when he said that.
Erina looked at the man, who stood tall and proud, seemingly unfazed. A hint of doubt appeared in her own eyes. Wasn't this guy known for his womanizing ways? Why does he seem so strange now?
Acting skills are definitely acting skills.
Unfortunately, I don't have any evidence to expose this guy, and based on my understanding of him, he might even turn the tables on me. So I'll just have to be patient for now and things will be calm for a while.
"Hmph, keep spouting nonsense and trying to fool someone as ignorant as Alice. After all, everyone knows who you are. You can't fool me with a single word you say."
At that moment, Erina spoke angrily, as if to say, "I've already seen through you. Don't even think about trying to fool me."
"At most, it's just a way to fool Alice."
Alice looked at how honest the other person was and felt a little helpless. Don't you understand? As a woman, you should play dumb when you need to. That's what a woman should do. If you keep acting like this, you'll drive people away sooner or later. Being too assertive is not good.
Alice could only silently think to herself that this person didn't know how to back down in the face of such domineering behavior. She knew the other person was restless, but she also knew that he wasn't exaggerating. She could only say half of what he meant.
Erina really doesn't understand what balance is, honestly!
Alice couldn't help but worry about this terrible teammate. Honestly, he didn't understand anything and was always worrying about her.
"Alright, alright, Erina, didn't you have something to say to this person? Now he's here."
Alice changed the subject at this moment, since that kind of topic couldn't be continued. Since that was the case, she could only change the subject. The other person had said that they had something to say, so she let them finish what they had to say.
Alice gave herself a pat on the back for her cleverness at that moment. 210
Erina was pushed forward at this moment and understood what the other party meant. It was just to ease the current atmosphere. In fact, she wanted to say that there was no need to do this. Isn't this just a normal way for the two of them to get along?
"Um, how about that drink tonight?"
Erina's true intention was to seek evaluation, or rather, she was unwilling to admit that she was seeking praise, since she had already made a breakthrough.
Lin Qi found it quite amusing to see the other person acting as if she was collecting opinions but actually seeking praise. He never expected that this proud young lady would have such a day.
If Lin Qi hadn't acted like a human being, he would definitely have died. You were teasing him, but after thinking about it, I realized there was no need to provoke him so recklessly.
After all, it was their good intention, and they really put in the effort this time to make that drink. They should still spend the money they were supposed to spend; suppressive education won't work.
Not to mention, the other party isn't the type to be suppressed.
Chapter 916 Erina: I'm doomed, it seems like I've been tricked.
"Not bad, not bad, it tastes pretty good."
Faced with this question, Lin Qi honestly replied that it was good and tasted quite good.
However, to my surprise, the other party was not happy at all upon hearing this answer; instead, they looked sullen.
Lin Qi was a little confused at this moment. Was the other person really angry? He didn't understand, he really didn't understand why the other person was angry. He was praising the other person, so why was they still angry?
Seeing the other person's sullen expression, Lin Qi couldn't help but reach out and poke him with his finger. The other person's face looked like a pufferfish.
Erina never expected that this person would launch a sneak attack in public.
"Baka! Don't touch me! Mind your manners!"
At this moment, Erina began to complain, telling the other party to pay attention to their image, that their hand was coming out of her face, and that if others saw it, they would lose face. She was someone who cared about her reputation.
Lin Qi almost laughed when he heard this, after all, this guy really had a lot to lose.
"Fine, don't poke me then. Honestly, you're so stingy. What's wrong with letting me poke you a few times?"
Erina was a little confused when she saw Zero Seven looking so puzzled and unhappy. "I haven't even confronted you about how you poked my face outside, and you're still acting all upset?"
"We're out here, not in a private place. This is really damaging to your image, okay? You're a grown man, what's with all the arrogance?"
Erina was acting all loud and boisterous at that moment.
It's obvious that he's unhappy because someone hit him, and he's upset. After all, the person who started it wasn't human either; even though he started it, he chose to turn the tables and blame others.
"Haha, alright, alright, stop fooling around. As for that drink you gave me, my assessment is that it's nothing special except for zero breakthroughs. The most important thing is what's inside it. You're serious. I roughly understand what your initial passion for cooking is like. But do you think this stuff will be useful to me?"
Erina looked completely bewildered at this moment.
"It's not that even I don't know its real function, I only know that I seem to have made a breakthrough, but you're telling me you know what kind of thing you're not kidding?"
"Isn't this thing supposed to have characteristics only before it truly forms, or before the drug is introduced? According to what you've said, it's just a superficial observation. How do you know that?"
Erina was completely bewildered at this moment.
After hearing the question, Lin Qi pointed to himself.
"Don't you even look at who's on the other side? How am I supposed to know? Most importantly, putting that aside, yours seems more like you want to conquer me, or rather, yours is more like a culinary queen/conqueror."
"But the main target was someone who wanted to conquer me, so that's why they created this. But isn't your challenge a bit too difficult?"
"You're trying to provoke me into a challenge, but it's like you're challenging me from thin air. It's a strange feeling, isn't it?"
At this moment, Lin Qi couldn't help but complain. The other party was completely invisible, baring its teeth and claws at him, trying to challenge him.
Upon hearing this, Erina fell silent. She did indeed have a desire to become incredibly powerful, to make this guy say "delicious!" and call her "Queen," to be conquered by her food. And then, she would leave her food behind.
But to my utter surprise, the other party saw through it. Not only that, but more importantly, wasn't the other party's evaluation a bit too much?
"So what? One day I'll make you kneel down and sing 'Conquer'!"
Erina spoke fiercely this time.
Alice stood by, feeling like the other person had made an impossible vow.
