You're Beautiful When You Smile
Chapter 61 Part 3

Tong Yao went back to her own room and laid down on her bed. Before she fell asleep, she checked Tieba which was full of discussion about her duel with Lu Sicheng. Most of the people thought that Lu Sicheng had lost the match on purpose, only a small group of people believed otherwise. Their reason was quite straightforward; why would Lu Sicheng let her win?

Only a very few noticed Lu Sicheng's mishap and complimented Tong Yao on her excellent play. However, comments like these were lost in the heated discussion.

Tong Yao grew bored of reading the posts after a while and threw her cell phone down to go to sleep.

A few hours later, Tong Yao was awoken by Little Fatty's incoming text message. She confusedly opened her eyes and discovered that it was already dark outside. Little Fatty informed her: That woman's here.

Tong Yao jumped up with a start to sit up on her bed, but fell back down on the bed again because the sudden movement made her dizzy after sleeping for so long…… Three seconds later, she remembered that the front door of the base was right under her window. She struggled to get up again and sneakily opened the window to look down. Just as expected, that long legged woman was standing right outside the base. Lu Sicheng stood in front of her with his back to the base, they were talking to each other.

All Tong Yao could see was the lit tip of the cigarette between Lu Sicheng's fingers-- --

As far as she could remember, he hadn't smoked for quite a while now.

After watching for a while next to the window, Tong Yao saw the two in front of the base were turning to head out. She almost called out to ask them where they were going. She stopped herself since she had realized it wasn't her business to butt in. She pressed her lips tightly against each other and closed the window.

……

In the front yard of the base, Lu Sicheng had made it clear to the person in front of him that they weren't a good match for each other. He suggested that it was getting late and he could see her home…...Su Luo sensed that Lu Sicheng had no intention to continue with the conversation and had to inform him that she had driven herself here. She had parked her car outside the residential community. Lu Sicheng thought about it and then said: “Then I'll see you to the gate.”

Su Luo was quite irritated: This man was perfect inside out. How could he not be hers?

Su Luo realized that the distance between the ZGDX base to the parking lot outside the gate would be her last chance to try to change his mind.

“Lu Sicheng, is it because I made a too high-profile appearance when I went to see your competition last time and you're unhappy about it?” Su Luo said: “I truly wasn't doing it on purpose. I just answered the people who asked me questions. I had no idea that you're this famous and those people would analyse what I said……”

“......” Lu Sicheng paused a bit: “It has nothing to do with that.”

“Your fans have made a big fuss about it. I'm really sorry about it.” Su Luo said with a frown: “They even located my Weibo account and some of them left really ugly messages saying that I'm shameless pretending to be your girlfriend-- --”

“Sorry.”

“Why are you saying sorry. It's not your fault, it's your fans……” Su Luo stopped for a while then continued: “I don't quite understand the things in your esports circle. But if we have the chance to move forward, I'm willing to learn-- --”

“It has nothing to do with that.” Lu Sicheng extinguished the cigarette. Actually, he had only smoked a few puffs this whole time. Now, he just tossed it into the trash bin. “I don't know whether Lu Yue had said some silly things to you, like the rules of this circle. But you don't have to pay attention to what he said. The fact is that if I really want to develop a relationship with someone, I would take good care to protect her. She doesn't have to learn anything.”

Lu Sicheng paused: “Therefore it has nothing to do with any of that.”

“Then, is it because you're afraid to hurt your fans' feelings?”

“This isn't the entertainment circle. I'm just a game player, not a monk entering a monastery.”

“Then what exactly-- --”

“We're not a good match.” Lu Sicheng simply replied.

The two had already reached the outside of the gate, probably because they were both tall and had long legs…...It was a busy street outside the gate and they could hear the music coming from bars. Under the street lights, Su Luo turned to look at the man who was only half a head taller than her. Half of his face was hidden in the shadow with stubble on his face. But it didn't hide the fact that he was a handsome man-- --

The matter of fact tone when he said “she doesn't have to learn anything” made her heart skip a beat.
