Losi couldn't speak. She slowly rested her head against Cheng Qing's chest and said in a muffled voice, "I'm not competing anymore, it's pointless."
A woman who doesn't know how to cherish someone like that is only trying to turn back to Teacher Cheng now that she's famous, and might even have hurt Teacher Cheng in the past.
No matter how hard she tried, Luo Xi couldn't believe she would lose to someone like that, and Teacher Cheng would definitely look down on her.
Why should she be jealous of a past she wasn't a part of? Now, she only wants to create a future that belongs only to them with Teacher Cheng.
Upon hearing this, Cheng Qing's expression softened, yet she found it amusing: "You were the one who wanted to compete, but now you're not?"
Losi shook her head in her arms, remaining silent and sullen.
Cheng Qing felt a ticklish sensation as her chest was rubbed back and forth, so she quickly gave in: "Okay, fine, if we don't want to compete, then we don't!"
Mingyue was taken aback, stood up, looked at Cheng Qing, and asked incredulously, "Why?"
Cheng Qing looked at her, her eyes turning slightly cold, but because of the camera and her years of upbringing, she didn't show her true colors.
He mechanically curled the corners of his lips and said with a smile, "This competition started because of your willfulness, and a willful start will inevitably end in willfulness."
She helped Luo Xi up, and as they passed Ming Yue, Ming Yue even tried to reach out and grab Cheng Qing.
Cheng Qing avoided the question, turning to Ming Yue coldly and saying, "She has already said... she won't compete anymore."
Mingyue's heart skipped a beat, a bittersweet feeling washing over her. She closed her eyes and asked, "What if I insist on competing?"
Cheng Qing calmly said, "Then let's compete."
What kind of talk is this?
Mingyue was shocked by these words. She stumbled back slightly, losing her footing. But she quickly regained her balance, and her gaze towards Cheng Qing was filled with sorrow.
Compared to you? Who can compare? Are you really that cruel to me?
Mingyue really couldn't understand why Cheng Qing, who was standing in front of her, felt so strangely unfamiliar to her.
The Cheng Qing who used to be willing to give her life for anyone who agreed seemed to have... died.

Chapter 104
Cheng Qing ignored the silent Ming Yue. If it weren't for the fact that she had transmigrated into this body, Cheng Qing would have given Ming Yue no face at all, out of respect for the original owner. But as long as she thought about how the original owner cared for Ming Yue just as she cared for Luo Xi, she felt reassured.
Cheng Qing knew she had no right to do anything to hurt Ming Yue on behalf of the original owner. But as Ming Yue got closer and closer, Cheng Qing couldn't always tolerate it.
Ignoring her heartbroken gaze, Cheng Qing helped Luo Xi back to the tree.
It's unclear what the two talked about during the match, but Losi still seems to be in a daze.
Cheng Qing took off the water bottle from his body and handed it to Luo Xi, who obediently took it and drank it.
Zhao Baibing, standing to the side, chuckled and teased Cheng Qing, "You seem quite protective of her, aren't you? Don't you care about your old classmate anymore?"
Cheng Qing could only say, "Classmates are just classmates, and my relationship with Luo Xi is naturally different."
Ahhh, that's so well said!
Since Teacher Cheng is so eloquent, please say a few more words!
[Huh, Luo Xi didn't blush after hearing Teacher Cheng's words today?]
This doesn't make sense!
Upon hearing this, Luo Xi silently glanced at Cheng Qing, her eyes filled with pity.
Cheng Qing asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
Losi shook her head and changed the subject, saying, "I hit a rock when I fell, and it hurt so much."
Zhao Baibing: "..."
Cheng Qing seemed to have expected this from Luo Xi's words; he had noticed something was wrong when he saw Luo Xi fall earlier.
Even though I already knew, I still asked her with concern, "Where does it hurt? Let me see."
Losi pouted and stretched out her arm.
Purple bruises were visible on her right arm. It wasn't serious, but the bruising made it look very bad.
Cheng Qing glanced at it and then said, "So, why be so stubborn? If you don't participate in this competition, none of this will happen."
Losi turned to look at her in shock and said loudly, "Do you even know how to comfort someone? You might as well shut up!"
Cheng Qing: "..."
Zhao Baibing chuckled and said, "Teacher Cheng, look at how you're comforting him, he's almost crying from the comfort."
Luo Xi was so angry she almost cried. She snorted and turned her head away. Cheng Qing choked, unsure how to respond.
The comments section burst into laughter.
Teacher Cheng is still Teacher Cheng after all!
[With Professor Cheng's personality, if it weren't for Luo Xi, he would definitely be alone for life.]
Straight men and women are simply a nightmare.
I suddenly feel so sorry for Losi, but I still want to laugh more, hahahahahaha
So how can someone who's full of sweet talk and someone who's utterly straightforward blend together so seamlessly? Hahahaha!
[Will Teacher Cheng be unable to understand sexual advances after marriage?]
【Don't you have any conscience? You need our princess to come for the proposal?】
Hey, isn't the view from upstairs getting more and more off-center?
Losi's face turned pale and then red; she was so angry that she had forgotten the sorrow and melancholy she had felt during her battle with Mingyue.
At this moment, Mingyue had also returned. She saw Luo Xi glaring angrily at Cheng Qing, and then saw Cheng Qing helplessly scratching his face.
It was as if they were in their own world, and she could never get close to them.
Mingyue silently walked over and sat down next to Zhao Baibing. Zhao Baibing chuckled and greeted her, "Actually, I was genuinely surprised when you said you and Teacher Cheng were classmates."
Mingyue was taken aback and turned to look at Zhao Baibing.
Zhao Baibing smiled and glanced at her: "Although I don't know what happened between you and Teacher Cheng, I think you should understand through this that Teacher Cheng is no longer your classmate from high school."
Mingyue was startled and said softly, "I'm sorry to have troubled you."
After she finished speaking, she followed Zhao Baibing's gaze and looked at the two people on the other side.
Lossie angrily pulled down her right sleeve and turned her head away. Her hair was already disheveled from the argument, a result of the game.
Cheng Qing glanced at her and peeked over Luo Xi's shoulder to look at her.
With such a large, living person leaning against her shoulder, Losi naturally felt it immediately.
But she just wouldn't turn around, so Cheng Qing could only lean close to her ear and say weakly, "Let me tie your hair up again!"
Where Cheng Qing couldn't see, Luo Xi smiled smugly. Then she nodded slightly, straightened her back, and waited for Cheng Qing's next move.
Cheng Qing knelt behind her and first helped Luo Xi put down her messy hair. Then, using her fingers instead of a comb, she smoothed her hair.
Losy has naturally curly hair. Even so, Losy's hair is in good condition, and her curls look naturally beautiful.
Cheng Qing gazed at him with admiration, her fingers tracing down his hair, strands brushing against her fingers as if intertwining. A slight coolness emanated from the hair, reaching straight to his heart.
Lossie felt the touch of her fingers, and every inch of her scalp that was touched tingled slightly. Every strand of hair seemed to have a tactile sensation, making Lossie almost want to lean back into Cheng Qing's arms.
But the live stream couldn't be like that. Luo Xi lowered her head slightly, blinked her large eyes, and a beautiful smile curved her lips. Under the big autumn tree, she believed she would always remember how gently Cheng Qing had combed her hair.
***
In this match, none of the people from Cheng Qing's area ultimately showed up. They said there wasn't much time left, and Cheng Qing had definitely found all the points he needed to. Therefore, there was no need for anyone to waste time on unnecessary battles.
In the end, Li Mingyao's group scored nearly 70 points, while Mu Xue, who was sent out by Cheng Qing's group, unexpectedly found two boxes.
Cheng Qing ultimately scored 480 points, which is a pretty good result.
After receiving their rewards, Cheng Qing and the other two dragged their tired bodies back to rest.
This game of tag was far too exhausting. When the three of them returned to the villa, they simply heated up and ate the leftovers from yesterday, and then dragged their weary bodies up the stairs back to their dormitory.
The three of them walked up side by side, with Luo Xi following behind Cheng Qing. Seeing that Cheng Qing didn't even turn around to look at her after returning to her room, Luo Xi felt a pang of sadness.
This guy!!! He confessed his feelings to me this morning and even kissed me!!! And now he's so cold!
Losi: So annoyed (｀??) = 3
She was angry, but she was also really tired. So, Losi went back to her room to get some clothes, took a shower, changed into her pajamas, and climbed back to her dorm.
It was only 8 o'clock, still early. With nothing else to do, Losi sat down in front of the vanity mirror and began her beauty skincare routine.
Knock knock knock.
Suddenly, a sound came from the glass door of the balcony. Rossi's heart skipped a beat. What was that sound?
Keep in mind that there's only a tiny balcony of about two square meters outside this window. Even birds wouldn't land there and knock on the door.
It couldn't possibly be Cheng Qing who climbed through her window, could it? After thinking about it, Luo Xi chuckled, realizing that she really dared to think of anything.
"Lossie, can you open the door?" Cheng Qing's highly recognizable voice suddenly came.
Losi was speechless for a moment: "..." She paused, blinked, and then suddenly rushed over and opened the door as if she had just realized what was happening.
Cheng Qing, who was outside the door, was startled by the sudden opening of the door and froze.
Losi rushed to the balcony to look, then became so angry she was speechless.
Her room and Cheng Qing's room were next door, but their balconies were indeed separate.
Independent!!!
Cheng Qing jumped over from her balcony!
