Chapter 178: It’s Better Not to Contend
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
When Secret Room 07’s mission was successfully completed, He Jing walked out of the secret room. She still couldn’t believe that she had actually surpassed Chen Yu and overshadowed Cheng Yi’s protagonist halo.
All of this was thanks to…
He Jing couldn’t help but steal a glance at Yan Hanxi. If it weren’t for him, she definitely wouldn’t have gotten the highest score in Secret Room 07.
As expected of the male lead. Only his protagonist halo could compete with Cheng Yi’s protagonist halo.
Yan Hanxi caught this glance. His thin lips curved slightly. His magnetic voice was like a cello, “How is it? Am I qualified as a partner? I didn’t hold you back, did I?”
He Jing made a vague sound, muttering, “Barely qualified.”
Yan Hanxi laughed. His black eyes sparkled like stars.
Cheng Yi had escaped from Secret Room 07 less than two minutes after He Jing. When she came out, she witnessed this scene.
She followed behind Chen Yu, enduring the cold violence that Chen Yu had used to play the entire Secret Room 07 without saying a word to her. She was embarrassed and humiliated.
She tightened her grip on the hem of her skirt until it was messy and wrinkled.
She was barely able to bear all this, but as soon as she came out, she saw He Jing and Yan Hanxi sharing a deep, affectionate look, their atmosphere ambiguous and warm, and she almost broke down.
She thought, “Why? Why did He Jing get Yan Hanxi’s favor? If Yan Hanxi liked me, everything wouldn’t be like this.”
Clearly, she had a premonition that Yan Hanxi would like her. What went wrong?
Chen Yu said, “I don’t plan to play with the rest of the secret chambers, let’s part ways here.”
Cheng Yi was quickly pulled back to her thoughts. When she heard this, her face turned pale again. Tears welled up in her eyes and was about to fall. But Chen Yu, without a shred of sympathy, didn’t even look at her and walked away.
Cheng Yi felt wronged and desperate. She called out, “Brother Chen Yu.”
Chen Yu stopped and turned around.
Before Cheng Yi could rejoice, Chen Yu said coldly, “Actually, I thought about it carefully. What you said in the secret room was indeed problematic. He Jing clearly said that she didn’t think collecting poker cards was the key to solving the puzzle, but you deliberately misinterpreted her and led everyone to attack her. I think what you said to me before was also to gain my sympathy and use me as a pawn, so you deliberately fabricated or distorted the facts, right?” Cheng Yi anxiously wanted to explain, “No, Brother Chen Yu, I…”
Chen Yu interrupted, “I didn’t expect that a college entrance exam top scorer like me would be treated like a fool. You’re really capable. I hope we won’t meet again in the future.”
After saying this, he strode away without hesitation. After a while, his figure disappeared.
Cheng Yi was completely dumbfounded.
After a long time, she finally came back to her senses and bit her lip angrily.
She thought, “Wasn’t it just embarrassment after losing? What was so great about it?”
She wouldn’t be interested in a man who couldn’t even defeat He Jing.
Cheng Yi snorted and couldn’t calm down for a long time.
Ever since she had fought with He Jing, she hadn’t won a single time. This couldn’t go on, and it was time to change her strategy.
Cheng Yi stood there for a long time before a hint of a smile appeared.
The secret room lasted until four o’clock in the afternoon. The sun had already shifted to the west, casting an orange glow.
When He Jing came out of the secret room, He Ning and the others were already waiting at the entrance. They had actually played for eight hours.
As soon as they saw her, He Sui quickly approached and asked with sparkling eyes, “He Jing! How do you feel?”
