Chapter 171: Meeting Again
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Chen Yu did want to get first place, but as he looked at Cheng Yiâs beautiful face, his heart turned into a puddle of mud by her words. What did taking first place matter compared to the girl he liked?
âPoints arenât important. Iâm willing to give you all my points, even if it means that.â
Cheng Yiâs beautiful eyes lit up, and then she was deeply moved. âReally?â
Chen Yu nodded firmly. âOf course itâs true.â
Cheng Yi held his hand and said sincerely, âThank you, Brother Chen Yu. I really donât know how to thank you.â
Chen Yuâs cheeks turned red, his heartbeat accelerated, and his breathing became warm.
Cheng Yi looked at her hand and quickly let go. She lowered her head and said shyly, âOops⦠Iâm sorry, I was too excited.â Chen Yu shook his head, âNo⦠Itâs alright.â
Cheng Yi said, âLetâs go to the next secret room.â
Now she couldnât wait to meet He Jing.
With Chen Yu around, she would definitely be able to surpass He Jing.
She thought, âI wonder what He Jingâs expression will be like at that timeâ¦â
âThe next chamber is Secret Room 07, right?â
âYes.â
As the most important secret room in the big secret room, Secret Room 07 had very rich points. It wasnât as difficult as 08, 09, and 10, but many complicated missions required a lot of mental effort. At the same time, it was also related to the BOSS of the entire secret room.
When He Jing saw that Secret Room 07 was highlighted in the manual, she knew that this place would trigger the final battle for the points leaderboard. Perhaps she would encounter Chen Yu and Cheng Yi.
However, when she really saw Chen Yu and Cheng Yi at the entrance of Secret Room 07, she couldnât help but feel stifled. Then, she glared at Yan Hanxi beside her.
This troublemaker was the cause of all the wars.
Cheng Yi also saw He Jing and Yan Hanxi. She didnât expect that the opportunity to turn the tables and slap her face would come so quickly. With Chen Yu by her side, she no longer felt the shame and inferiority complex she had before. She confidently went up to greet them, âStudent Yan, Student He Jing, what a coincidence.â
Chen Yu frowned and glanced at He Jing.
Was this the He Jing that Cheng Yi had mentioned, who was jealous of her popularity and conspired with others to kick her out of the team?
She actually looked quite beautiful and she didnât seem like that kind of personâ¦
However, he still believed Cheng Yiâs words more. After all, one could never know a personâs heart by their appearance. Cheng Yi had been with him for so long, and her kindness was evident. She couldnât possibly deceive him.
He Jing also looked at Chen Yu. He had thick eyebrows and big eyes. He wasnât as handsome as she had imagined. No wonder the real heiress in the original novel wasnât interested in him no matter what. Compared to the god-like Yan Hanxi and the extraordinarily handsome He Ning, he was indeed a little inferior.
However, with just one glance, she was certain that this was her formidable opponent.
Secret Room 07 also had a prerequisite mission, not rewarding any dolls but offering a chance to make an initial guess about the boss who designed all the secret rooms. Whether it was right or wrong didnât affect the final result. In short, it was a very good opportunity to find out about the Boss.
Other than the two groups, there were three other groups with a total of ten people participating.
Cheng Yi said with a smile, âStudent He Jing, Iâm fourth.â
He Jing had no expression. âCongratulations.â
Seeing that she was calm, Cheng Yi couldnât help feeling annoyed. She pretended to be so calm, but who knew how angry she was?
Thinking of this, Cheng Yi became excited again. âStudent He Jing, Iâll strive to surpass you. I hope you wonât mind when the time comes.â
He Jing replied, âYeah, whatever.â
Anyway, things were going according to the rules of the novel, so she just lay flat.
As long as she wasnât cannon fodder, anything was fine.
Cheng Yi gritted her teeth and decided to change her position. She turned to Yan Hanxi and said in a soft voice, âStudent Yan, I will prove my strength to you.â
Yan Hanxi glanced at her and chuckled. âDonât worry, with me around, you wonât get first place..â
