Chapter 378

Jiang Zhi finished washing up and breakfast, then lay back on bed to catch up on sleep.

She still cannot leave.

Ning Xun's upcoming matches are very important to him, so she must wait until the MSI competition ends before thinking of a way to leave.

In the days that followed, Jiang Zhi even lost the right to go out; the boy installed a tracker on her phone, always knowing where she was. During matches he would bring her to the venue, though she didn't know where he had hired the female bodyguard from. He said it was for her safety and close protection, but she knew this was Ning Xun's way of restricting her.

Jiang Zhi no longer provoked him as she used to, avoided games altogether, and reduced her meetings with Xixi.

She also wouldn't speak to any boys.

Continuing to the day of the finals, YK broke through the encirclement and played the final match against a team from H Country.

Jiang Zhi sat in the audience, watching the boy's handsome yet cold face flash across the screen.

Her phone vibrated.

She received a text message from Xixi.

【Xiao Zhi, once you come out, a car will pick you up, and then my private plane will fly you to Y Country.】

Jiang Zhi replied with an okay.

She put down her phone and looked again at the boy in the soundproof booth on stage.

It was a best-of-three; his team had already lost one game, and if they lost another, the championship of this MSI would go to the H Country team.

He stayed focused throughout; although he was only an eighteen-year-old who cared deeply about winning and losing, he didn't want to appear indifferent to others' opinions on the surface—he had simply grown accustomed to it.

That's just how the esports circle is: being unskilled is the original sin, no matter how much glory one has achieved before.

Having been with him for so long, Jiang Zhi rarely saw him like this.

Full of charm, attractive, and possessing the vigor and drive typical of his age.

YK won the second game.

The tense third game began shortly after.

It lasted over fifty minutes; not only them, but the people seated in the audience were on edge, not daring to blink for fear of missing a crucial moment.

As the cheers rose, the outcome of this game was decided.

YK won the championship.

Jiang Zhi stood up, and the female bodyguard sitting beside her also rose.

All the way to the restroom, she picked up the phone and said, 'Congratulations on winning the championship, little brother.'

After a while.

Jiang Zhi continued, 'Alright, I'll wait for you; go receive your award.'

She hung up.

She told the bodyguard, 'I've got my period, but I didn't bring any sanitary pads; could you go outside and buy a pack for me?'

Upon hearing this, the female bodyguard hesitated in place, wondering whether to call Ning Xun for advice.

Seeing her hesitation, Jiang Zhi said, 'He's receiving his award; if you want Ning Xun's approval, I can accompany you backstage to wait.'

Not daring to offend her, the bodyguard trembled and said, 'I'll go buy it for you.'

Having said that, she turned and hurried away.

After Jiang Zhi confirmed the bodyguard had completely disappeared, she quickly left the venue, got into the car arranged by Xixi, took out her phone, and composed a text to Ning Xun.

Then she turned off the phone and tossed it straight out the car window.

The driver stared in shock.

Seeing the woman in the back seat swiftly put on ordinary clothes, a hat and mask, lift her gaze slightly, and meet his eyes.

The driver hastily averted his gaze.

The car soon arrived at the private airport.

After Jiang Zhi boarded the plane, she thought.

This counted as a complete breakup with Ning Xun.

Once the Hatred Value reaches its maximum and her mission is complete, she will travel and vacation in various countries, spend the rest of her time, and then move on to the next world.

She had planned everything thoroughly; the final chapter of the novel had been released two days ago, and the story would conclude today or tomorrow.

She took off her coat, brushed aside the dark hair that had grown longer at her shoulder, and decided not to cut it, leaving it long as is.

She slept on the plane.

When she woke up, outside it had grown completely dark; the lingering heat of late summer clung to the evening breeze blowing on her face.

Y Country borders Hua Guo nearby, with a climate of warm winters and cool summers; she bought a house in a seaside location and furnished it with plenty of furniture.

The clock struck nine in the evening.

【Villain Ning Xun's Hatred Value is rising unstably……】

Until the next morning.

Ning Xun's Hatred Value reached its maximum.

【Main quest one completed.】

Jiang Zhi finally breathed a sigh of relief; the task was half done, and the other half was underway.

Next up was a pleasant vacation.

Another week passed.

Jiang Zhi dialed her best friend Xixi on her newly bought phone.

Li Qianqian answered her call at the bar, went to a quiet restroom, and after connecting said, 'Xiao Zhi, your boyfriend isn't a sweet puppy at all—he's totally a wolf dog, and now he's acting crazy, searching everywhere for you.'

A few days ago I was driving home, and halfway there he drove his car straight into me; luckily I braked in time, otherwise you'd be coming to eat at my place now.

Jiang Zhi: 'I'm sitting at the kids' table.'

Li Qianqian laughed: "You damn it!"

Jiang Zhi sighed: "Sorry, sorry, are you okay?"

Li Qianqian belched: "Don't worry, I'm hiding too, he can't find me now."

After she said that, she immediately asked: "Xiao Zhi, are you really determined to break up with him?"

Jiang Zhi, who had rented a shop in Y Country to sell fruit tea, held a cool tea cup, took off her high heels, and stepped onto the soft sand.

"Yeah, I don't like overly clingy people."

Li Qianqian thought for a moment and agreed: "Ning Xun is really a pervert; indeed, I shouldn't have looked for a boyfriend younger than me……"

Before she could finish speaking, her phone vibrated and a call came in.

"I won't tell you for now; I need to take this call, let's talk again when I get back."

"Okay."

Li Qianqian answered the call and asked: "What do you need from me?"

Shen Lebai said: "Xixi, you really don't have your friend's phone number? I feel the team captain is about to die; these days he's locked himself at home drinking every day. Please, just have your friend call Ning Ge."

Li Qianqian was speechless: "If he had a proper talk with my best friend, it wouldn't have come to this. When people date, basic respect and space should be given to each other, right? As for your team captain, he's fine—he practically wishes my best friend would never go out."

Shen Lebai didn't know the details, but hearing her say that, he roughly understood.

Li Qianqian heard her friends outside calling her, so she said: "Alright, that's it, I'm hanging up."

Shen Lebai was about to speak when the call was hung up.

He scratched his head hard, and he and the few teammates who had come over looked at each other.

"She really wants to break up with our Ning Ge."

Zhuang Hui was a bit confused: "Our Ning Ge is so great, why does she want to break up? He's got a good figure, is so handsome, so many people are rushing to date our Ning Ge—what the heck, sister-in-law, why is that?"

Wuzihang said: "Enough talk; only they themselves know about dating, we shouldn't be guessing here."

Zhuang Hui unhappily pursed his lips: "After finally winning the MSI championship, I never expected something like this to happen; it's so frustrating, Ning Ge doesn't even know how he's doing……"
