Chapter 57: The Devil Is Here

“You know me?”

Guan Tao looked surprised, or more accurately, flattered.

Who would remember her at a noble school like Erzhong?

“That’s right. I remember all the names in the top ten. It’s just that I haven’t seen some of them before, so I couldn’t match their names to their faces,” Xia Qinghuan said with a smile. “And your name is so unique. I remember it immediately.”

“Is that so? Heh heh.” Guan Tao laughed foolishly, but she was very happy in her heart.

At this moment, Lin Yi also said calmly, “Jian Ai and Guan Tao entered Erzhong based on their results. I heard that they received full scholarships.”

Xia Qinghuan’s eyes lit up as if she had suddenly thought of this. She looked at the two of them with joy and said, “In that case, after the monthly examination, we might all be in the same class.”

It made sense. She was the only girl in Lin Yi’s little group. Although they were very close, Xia Qinghuan had long wished to have a best friend whom she could talk to about everything.

However, the girls in Erzhong were either rich or noble. Most of them had the prideful nature of daughters from rich families that could not be shaken off. They were rich and liked to compare themselves with others. They did boring things, so Xia Qinghuan was not willing to be friends with them.

Although Xia Qinghuan was the daughter of the Xia family and had a pure and beautiful face, she was not like that in her bones. Although there wasn’t a man who lived in her body, she was not particular about many things. This was also the reason why she could play with Lin Yi and the rest.

“Who is willing to be in the same class as them?” Yan Tian could not help but mutter under his breath again. However, he did not expect that Xia Qinghuan would glare at him, and he swallowed the rest of his words.

The driver sent them to Baiyun Square and drove off.

The three boys walked in front while Jian Ai, Xia Qinghuan, and Guan Tao followed behind.

“Have you guys been to the gaming city before?” Xia Qinghuan asked.

Guan Tao shook her head, but Jian Ai answered, “My brother took me to a small arcade before. It’s my first time here though.”

In South City District and Zhonglou District, there were as many arcades and billiards halls as there were hairs on a cow. Jian Ai had been to them a few times when Jian Yu secretly took her there.

“This Big Player Gaming City is the largest in Baiyun City. There are all kinds of games inside. Dancing machines, racing, and so on. I guarantee that you’ll like them.” Xia Qinghuan became more and more excited as she spoke. However, it was obvious that boys preferred to come to such places.

When they reached the gaming city, Jian Ai and Guan Tao looked around curiously. They were surrounded by all sorts of game consoles that they could not name. It was not the age of the Internet yet, so the gaming city was one of the entertainment venues that young people liked to go to.

There was a sea of people in the gaming city. People were queuing for popular games like the dancing machines. The noisy atmosphere was very infectious. Even Jian Ai vaguely felt that nothing had changed and that she was still a child.

Lin Yi went to buy some game tokens and gave them to everyone. Xia Qinghuan yelled at the boys to go play by themselves while she brought Jian Ai and Guan Tao to play. After all, boys liked to play racing, gun battles, and fighting. The girls were not interested.

A few of them came to the dance machine. There was a Korean song playing on the machine in front of them. Two players were dancing according to the instructions on the screen. This was one of the most popular projects in the gaming city. Other than the people queuing up behind, there was also a group of onlookers.

“The devil is here!”
