Chapter 8

For the half day in the afternoon, Qin Tian and Xia Nuannuan could feel the gazes cast by the students in the class from time to time.

Both of them understood the meaning of those eyes very well.

Qin Tian didn't care; having been in the workplace for many years in his previous life, his skin had long been practiced to be very thick.

Xia Nuannuan, however, was a bit shy.

She used to be a small transparent person in the class, and her presence was very weak.

Now that she was suddenly so concerned, she was a bit unaccustomed to it.

However, whenever she was panicked, a glance at Qin Tian, who was calm and composed beside her, made her feel much more stable in her heart.

It was impossible to have any weekends in the senior year of high school.

According to the consistent regulations of Yucheng No. 4 High School, every half month, senior students would have one day of rest.

This Saturday afternoon, it happened to be the time for a holiday.

Tomorrow night, they would return to school for evening self-study.

With the approach of the college entrance examination, the pressure on the graduating students was getting bigger and bigger.

Even if there was only one day of vacation, everyone was extremely looking forward to it.

Not long after the last class in the afternoon started, the classroom began to become restless.

Even though the biology teacher on the podium reminded them several times and even criticized two people by name, it didn't have much effect.

Finally, the bell rang for the end of class.

Before the teacher on the podium announced the end of class, many people had already started packing their things.

The whispering discussions also began to be completely unmasked.

"Class dismissed, class dismissed, remember to take the test papers handed out back to do, the class representative will collect them before evening self-study tomorrow."

After the biology teacher gave instructions, he left the classroom directly.

Once the teacher left, the classroom instantly became like a vegetable market.

"Let's go, let's go, let's play CF at the internet cafe!"

"I want to play Dungeon & Fighter, a set of annual sets is about to be moved out."

"What kind of trash games are those, of course it's League of Legends!"

"League of Legends? Elementary school student game, I might as well play Dota!"

"Heh..."

The boys argued in groups of three or five and left the classroom together.

As for the test papers the biology teacher just mentioned, what kind of thing was that?

Many even left empty-handed.

Homework or something, copying it after returning to school and handing it in was the standard operation.

"Qin Tian, let's go to the internet cafe!"

Zhang Peng leaned over with a smile.

The full face of acne made his smile look quite wretched.

"Nuannuan, we're going to the internet cafe to play, do you want to go together?"

Qin Tian looked at Xia Nuannuan beside him and invited her.

"Ah?"

Xia Nuannuan was stunned, her heart beating faster from being called "Nuannuan" by him, and she blushed and stammered: "But I usually go straight home, if I don't go back, will Mom be worried?"

"It's okay, just make a phone call at the internet cafe, or send a message on QQ."

Qin Tian said with a smile.

"This..."

Xia Nuannuan was a bit moved.

She was always alone at school, and no one had asked her out to play for a long time.

"Let's go, let's go play for two hours to relax, combining work and rest will make learning more efficient."

Qin Tian said with a smile.

"Alright then, I'll call my mom and tell her."

Xia Nuannuan nodded and agreed.

Then, under the surprised gazes of Qin Tian and Zhang Peng, she took out a classic Apple 4S from her school bag and turned on the phone.

"My dad bought this for me last year, the school doesn't allow phones, I usually keep it turned off."

Seeing the two of them looking at her like this, Xia Nuannuan hurriedly explained.

Qin Tian knew her family conditions were very good, so he didn't think there was anything.

Beside him, Zhang Peng was a bit shocked: "Xia Nuannuan, what does your family do that you're so rich, this phone is very expensive, it seems to be nearly five thousand yuan!"

"My family just does some small business."

Xia Nuannuan smiled embarrassedly and brushed it off casually.

At this time, the phone had already turned on.

After unlocking it, she opened the address book and dialed her mother's number.

"Hey, Mom, I won't go back yet, I'm going out to play with classmates, mm mm, I know, it won't be very late... okay, thank you Mom!"

After briefly explaining the situation, she hung up the phone and gave the two of them a sweet smile:

"It's okay, my mom agreed."

"Can you lend it to me for a moment? I'll also call home."

Qin Tian asked with a smile.

"Of course, here."

Xia Nuannuan handed the phone to him readily.

"Let's go, let's talk while we walk, if we're late, there might not be any machines left."

Zhang Peng urged anxiously.

And so, the three of them left the classroom together.

When walking out of the teaching building, Qin Tian had already finished the call, notifying his mother that he would be back late today.

……………………

Along the way, Qin Tian could see that Xia Nuannuan was in a very good mood.

Although she didn't say much, she always had a sweet smile on her cute face, and she seemed to have become much more cheerful.

Soon, the three of them came to the entrance of an internet cafe called "Shidai Internet Cafe" near the school.

After walking in, they found that it was already overcrowded, and many people were waiting for machines in front of the counter.

"Sigh, still late, these bastards ran too fast!"

Zhang Peng sighed helplessly.

Qin Tian didn't feel surprised.

In this day and age, the internet cafe industry was booming.

Especially during holidays, if you didn't run fast, it was very difficult to occupy a seat.

Not to mention that this internet cafe was closest to the Fourth Middle School, and now the senior students had just been on holiday, so many people must have rushed over.

"So many people!"

Xia Nuannuan opened her little mouth slightly and looked around in disbelief.

"Is this your first time at an internet cafe?"

Qin Tian asked with a smile.

"Mm!"

Xia Nuannuan nodded and said: "I don't play games, and there's a computer at home."

"It's great to have a computer at home!"

Zhang Peng looked envious, then looked at Qin Tian and asked: "What should we do? Should we go to other internet cafes to see?"

"Forget it, looking at this situation, other internet cafes should be about the same."

Qin Tian shook his head.

"Then what should we do? How long will we have to wait."

Zhang Peng scratched his head in annoyance.

"Follow me, watch me."

Qin Tian smiled mysteriously and walked inside.

Zhang Peng and Xia Nuannuan looked at each other blankly and hurriedly followed.

In this era, there were many popular games in internet cafes.

Among them, the most popular was not League of Legends, but Dungeon & Fighter, which had occupied the top of the pay-to-win game rankings for many years.

Looking around, the warriors of the dungeon occupied most of the internet cafe.

There were also many people playing CF, QQ Speed, Dota, and other games.

League of Legends was only launched on the national server in September last year, and it had only been half a year now.

Although it already had a popular trend, only a small part of people had really started playing this game.

Most of the people playing this game in the internet cafe were concentrated in an area on the right side.

After Qin Tian came to this area, he stood behind one of the young men.

The young man was wearing headphones, one hand on the keyboard, one hand on the mouse, operating the hero on the screen.

It was easy to see that this guy also liked to show off his operations, playing the Lee Sin, which had a relatively high difficulty.

But the technique...

It was a bit unbearable to look at.

In the canyon, seven heroes from both sides were fighting around the dragon.

There were four people on the young man's side, fighting more with less.

The opponent's jungler, Master Yi, rushed over with his ultimate and took the dragon with a Q plus Smite.

"F*ck, your mother, dare to snatch your daddy's dragon, looking for death."

The young man cursed angrily, and his left index finger pressed the ultimate hard.

On the screen, Lee Sin used a brilliant "saving the dead and healing the wounded" kick to send Master Yi, who had a quarter of his health left, out of the dragon pit.

"What a Hua Tuo!"

Zhang Peng stood behind and saw this scene, couldn't help but sigh with a smile.
