Chapter 168 You think I'm good at games?
Ye Lan paid no attention to his teammates' suggestions; his deep gaze fell on the petite and charming Ye Wanying.
As if sensing that she was being watched, Ye Wanying raised her head.
Looking at Ye Lan, her pink lips parted slightly, and her slender, jade-like fingers gently stroked her smooth face:
"Brother, is there something dirty on my face?"
"No, it's very fair-skinned, just like a peeled hard-boiled egg." Ye Lan smiled and pinched her chubby cheek.
Ye Wanying did not resist; on the contrary, she thoroughly enjoyed the process, her watery eyes still filled with confusion.
"Then why are you staring at me?"
"I just wanted to hear your opinion."
Ye Lan's thinking was simple: he didn't have much affection for either his opponents or teammates.
Their demands couldn't change his determination to win.
But Ye Wanying is different. The two are like siblings who have grown up together. Ye Lan will protect Ye Wanying in his own way, and Ye Wanying will take care of Ye Lan in her own way.
The bond of family ties tightly binds them together.
They have long since become an indispensable part of each other's lives.
In other words, only Ye Wanying can change Ye Lan's decision.
"Why don't we let him win this round? When someone in our class doesn't do their homework, the teacher erupts like a volcano, looking like she's about to devour them!"
"I guess their teachers are about the same."
Ye Wanying has excellent grades and always finishes her homework the fastest, without any procrastination.
So she has never experienced what it feels like to be reprimanded by a teacher.
But she had seen other classmates who didn't do their homework get scolded by the teacher.
Even from an outsider's perspective, it feels like a huge rock is pressing down on my heart, making it hard to breathe.
So she wanted to help Sun Wukong on the other side.
Students are the most empathetic towards each other.
Of course, the most important point is that Ye Wanying doesn't care about winning or losing the game.
She played games simply to have more in common with Ye Lan.
After all, Ye Lan was really addicted to the internet back then. She spent at least a dozen hours a day playing games. Eating, defecating, and sleeping were all done on fast-forward, and she was always holding her phone and playing games.
Listening to Ye Wanying's explanation, Ye Lan affectionately patted her head.
"Alright, let's consider this game a free win for the other side."
The minority submits to the majority, and besides, there wasn't a single person on Ye Lan's side who objected.
In the later matches, Ye Lan played very casually. Pei Qinhu carried Yao Mei through the King's Canyon, with Yao Mei riding on Pei Qinhu's head, enjoying the natural scenery. It turned into a completely relaxed game.
At this point, no one cared about winning or losing the game; everyone even started chatting.
It was only then that they realized the monkey on the other side was a junior high school student.
Just like Ye Lan before him, when he first came into contact with video games, he was attracted by the bizarre and wonderful scenes and became immersed in the virtual game.
However, she is somewhat different from Ye Lan.
He has no talent.
They're the type who's bad at the game but loves to play.
At first, his parents tried to reason with him to limit his gaming, but they found that it was not only ineffective, but it also triggered his resistance. He made a scene at home, causing great disharmony in the family.
Later, inspired by a teacher, I changed my strategy.
Not only did they not restrict him, but they also told him not to do his homework when he came back, but to play games first, and not to do his homework until he finished the game tasks.
At first, he didn't think it was a big deal. After all, how many kids dream of having their parents stop them from playing games?
But then he realized something was wrong.
I'm so bad at the game that I can't complete the tasks my parents assigned me.
Instead, it delayed their studies.
He didn't do his homework, was listless, and was scolded by his teacher every day.
He has developed some resistance to games, but his parents want to completely wean him off internet addiction, so they are still using the same methods as before.
The best way to deal with rebellion is to comply.
Ye Lan said with a smile, "Brother, when your parents first tried to persuade you, did they say something like this?"
"If you had put the same energy you use for playing games into studying, you would have gotten into Tsinghua or Peking University long ago."
[All] Sun Wukong: "I've said it before, and I don't know how many times I've said it."
Other teammates also chimed in, saying that their parents had said similar things.
Ye Lan laughed even louder, "Then you can muster up the courage to tell your parents, do you think I'm good at games?"
Everyone: ........
What a brilliant move to kill someone by destroying their spirit!
Ye Wanying couldn't bear to listen anymore and tugged at Ye Lan's sleeve with her small hand, "Brother, what you said is so hurtful!"
Ye Lan, however, seemed completely unconcerned, saying, "Oh dear, learning to acknowledge your shortcomings is the first step in growing up."
"Back then, I openly admitted that I wasn't cut out for studying."
But after hearing this, Ye Wanying pursed her lips in disdain, her left cheek puffed up with anger.
"No way, brother, you're obviously very smart, you just never focus on your studies."
"Your parents were absolutely right. If you put half the effort you put into playing games into studying, you might actually be able to get into Tsinghua or Peking University."
"Your brother isn't a masochist. Why should I do something I don't like, within the limits of my abilities?"
Ye Lan has been quick-witted since childhood and learns things very quickly, which is why her parents chose to let her grow up freely and respect all her choices.
Perhaps it was because she was too indulgent that Ye Lan's personality became too carefree.
Don't do things you don't like.
Unless you give enough!
However, it must be said that Ye Lan's carefree and unrestrained temperament really attracted a large number of female and male fans during high school.
Most ordinary people are in an awkward situation: they don't have the courage to do what they want to do, and they don't have the courage to refuse what they don't want to do.
Ye Lan is the kind of person who does what others want to do but dare not do, and refuses what others want to refuse but dare not refuse.
Time slipped away quietly amidst the casual conversation.
When the game reached the six-minute mark, Ye Lan was the first to surrender.
The teammates, who had already discussed the matter, didn't cause any trouble and all clicked "agree."
With five votes in favor, the game came to an end.
"Sigh, this Diamond rank is truly unfathomable. I never thought I'd fail."
Ye Lan sighed with feigned regret, her expression filled with remorse.
This affected manner drew criticism from netizens, since it was obvious to everyone that if Ye Lan hadn't followed Ye Wanying's advice, the opposing team would have surrendered in six minutes.
No, and not absolutely.
It probably took less than six minutes for Ye Lan to destroy the opponent's crystal base.
Just as Ye Lan was chatting with his online friends, the Monkey King from the previous game sent him a friend request.
"Bro, can you play games with me? I want to win 3 more games."
"If I don't finish this task soon, I won't be able to finish my homework tonight."
