Chapter 357: She Seems to Have Opened Her Mind

A flash of hesitation crossed Jiang Baobao's eyes.

Immediately after, she heard Li Beijue continue, "Yanbao is also very interested in this game. If I learn a bit more about it, I can have more common topics to discuss with him."

Jiang Baobao's gaze flickered for a moment, and she suddenly felt as if she had even less room to refuse.

"Fine, then come in."

Jiang Baobao finally nodded helplessly, turned around, and walked into the room.

The next second, she suddenly heard a "click" sound from behind her.

"Why are you closing the door?"

Jiang Baobao's footsteps came to an abrupt halt; she turned her head subconsciously to ask, a flash of panic quickly crossing her eyes.

Li Beijue hadn't expected her reaction to be so intense. His hand, which had been resting on the doorknob, paused slightly. Watching the nervous look on the person before him, a subtle feeling suddenly rose in his heart.

She... is nervous?

Li Beijue raised an eyebrow and explained unhurriedly, "I thought you might need it to be a bit quieter."

"No need."

Jiang Baobao shook her head, realizing she seemed to have lost her composure just now. She hurriedly adjusted her emotions and casually found an excuse, saying, "It's a bit stuffy in the room, let's keep the door open..."

"Alright." Li Beijue nodded, pulled over a chair, and walked toward the computer desk.

Jiang Baobao took a deep breath, then sat down as well and opened the computer, though her mood was hard to calm.

Ever since she found out Li Beijue liked her, it seemed she couldn't look him in the eye anymore...

Although she had felt that being alone with him was a difficult ordeal in the past, the feeling now was completely different...

And this guy is too cunning!

He actually used Yanbao as an excuse!

While inwardly grumbling to herself, Jiang Baobao quickly opened a video on the computer.

"How much do you know about the game?"

She tried her best to sound casual as she asked, her eyes fixed on the screen in front of her.

Li Beijue curled his lips: "I don't know anything at all, so... I'll have to trouble you to teach me more."

Jiang Baobao: "..."

If he doesn't know anything, why did he watch the competition!

Teaching a newbie is very troublesome!

Jiang Baobao quickly complained in her heart and helplessly reached out to point at a few players preparing in the game's staging area on the screen.

"Let me explain the professions to you first. At the very least, you recognize the weapons in their hands, right?"

Once she started talking about the game, Jiang Baobao's expression instantly became much more serious.

"Mm." Li Beijue nodded faintly.

"OK." Jiang Baobao said, pressing the play button on the video.

This was a video of a practice match that Star had played just this afternoon.

As the scene began, the five team members didn't rush in all at once; instead, Ano, who was responsible for the ranged position, began to circle around the opponents.

Jiang Baobao watched with rapt attention.

Li Beijue stared at it for a while and gradually began to grasp the hang of it.

Although he didn't understand it, he could roughly see which team had the upper hand, what skills were used, and what effects they caused.

Li Beijue's gaze slowly shifted away from the screen and couldn't help but land on Jiang Baobao's face.

Jiang Baobao was slightly frowning, occasionally lowering her head to jot something down in the small notebook in front of her.

Li Beijue's gaze slowly moved downward and landed on those two thin, tightly pursed lips, a dark light flashing in his eyes.

I wonder when I'll be able to taste her again...

"Click!"

The sound of the keyboard suddenly rang out, abruptly pulling Li Beijue's thoughts back.

Jiang Baobao looked down at her notes and said in a muffled voice, "If there's anything you don't understand, you can ask me directly."

As she spoke, she pressed hard with her pen to write in the notebook, but a flash of helplessness crossed her eyes, which were half-hidden by her long hair.

I knew this guy wasn't here to learn in earnest!

If I don't find something to say, his gaze is going to stare right through me!

I have to find a way to finish watching this quickly and get Li Beijue to go back to his own room!

Just as Jiang Baobao was thinking this, she heard the person beside her say in a low voice, "It seems okay. You can continue playing; if there's anything I don't understand, I'll ask you."

"Alright."

Jiang Baobao pressed play again, forcing herself to concentrate.

Li Beijue's peripheral vision thoughtfully sized up the person beside him, a hint of a smile unable to be suppressed in his eyes, then he inadvertently glanced at the video's progress bar.

This video still has half an hour left?

Tsk... the time seems a bit short...

Li Beijue raised an eyebrow. No longer as quiet as before, he suddenly asked, "What is the blue light on that archer just now?"

"This one?" Jiang Baobao pressed pause and reached out to poke the screen: "This is the effect of him being buffed by the support's skills."

"So that's how it is..." Li Beijue nodded.

Two minutes later—

Li Beijue: "What is that purple circle of light?"

Jiang Baobao paused again: "It's a trap; it has a slowing effect."

Another minute passed—

Li Beijue: "Why did his blade stop halfway through the swing without cutting down?"

Jiang Baobao: "..."

Where did Beijue get so many questions!

If this kept up, she was afraid she would be watching this single match video until the middle of the night!

Jiang Baobao sighed in her heart, then said helplessly: "Because he was immobilized by his opponent..."

After she finished speaking, she didn't give Li Beijue any chance to talk and continued directly: "I'm not used to pausing constantly when I watch match recordings; wait until I finish watching, and I'll answer your questions all at once."

Li Beijue immediately knew when to stop while he was ahead and sensibly shut his mouth.

The next second, he saw Jiang Baobao switch the video to double-speed playback mode!

Li Beijue spoke subconsciously: "This..."

"The early stage of the match is more important; I can still see clearly at this speed for the rest."

Jiang Baobao seemed to know what he was going to say, so she explained first and swept a glance at the person beside her from the corner of her eye.

Finish playing it quickly!

That way, a certain guy wouldn't be able to linger in her room and refuse to leave!

Ten minutes later, the video, which originally had half an hour left, finished playing rapidly.

Jiang Baobao immediately let out a long sigh of relief and said to the person beside her without hesitation: "Finished watching, you can go back now."

"But I still have questions to ask." Li Beijue leaned back in his chair, his expression leisurely.

Jiang Baobao said immediately without hesitation: "I know, I have something to send you, go get your phone."

"Oh?" Li Beijue raised an eyebrow upon hearing this, then stood up and went back to his room to get his phone.

In the room, Jiang Baobao had already imported a folder into her phone.

Just as she was about to reach out and take it, she suddenly touched a warm sensation!

"What are you doing!"

Jiang Baobao jerked her hand back and stared with wide eyes at Li Beijue, who had returned at some point.

She saw that he was also holding his own phone.

"Ahem, I can take it myself." Jiang Baobao coughed lightly to cover her embarrassment and pretended to be calm as she took the phone.

Li Beijue, however, looked at the person in front of him thoughtfully, a trace of inquiry flashing in his eyes.

Whether it was when she entered the door just now or the accidental touch, her reaction was too intense.

It was as if... she was very afraid that he would do something...

Could it be...

Li Beijue suddenly thought of something, a glint of light flashed across his eyes, followed by a hint of irrepressible amusement.

It seems... a certain woman's wooden head has finally started to open up?
