Absolutely Spoiled - Chapter 23.2
Chapter 23.2
Canteen
When the interval bell rang, students rushed into the cafeteria.
There were three boys sitting by the window, and there were still vacancies on the opposite side.
Two girls with pigtails walked towards them with their dinner plates and asked a little shyly, “Can we sit here?”
Shi Yi pushed the pink and white lunch box towards an empty seat. “Sorry, there are people here.”
After getting rejected, the two girls went to another table and started to talk.
“So handsome, especially the one on the far left.”
“Isn’t that Shi Yi from the first grade? I heard he is a very bright student.”
“Ahhhhh, he is handsome and has good academic performance—a male god-level figure.”
“Put away your nymphomaniac appearance; we are all in the third year of high school.”
“…”
The girl stopped talking about Shi Yi with her friend, but it didn’t stop her from appreciating him in her heart.
At this time, three girls walked towards Shi Yi’s table, and the one who came empty-handed sat directly in front of Shi Yi.
Others noticed that the lunch boxes used by Shi Yi and the girl opposite him were obviously of the same style with different colours.
………
Li Shaozhou finished his meal quickly. “Do you have any tissues?” he asked while looking at the three female classmates opposite him.
Yu Zhiyi took out a pack of tissues and gave one to each other.
Qiao Lezhi quipped, “Thanks, Yiyi; oh, now I have to return a tissue to you.”
Li Shaozhou wiped his mouth while saying, “How could sister Yiyi be as stingy as you!”
As soon as the voice fell, he felt a sharp gaze on him.
“Who is your sister?” Shi Yi’s eyes were glaring at him.
Li Shaozhou immediately raised his hand and surrendered. “Okay, I was wrong, brother; I said the wrong thing; the opposite is classmate Yu Zhiyi.”
Li Shaozhou didn’t dare argue with Shi Yi because he still wanted to copy his homework.
Shi Yi quietly waited as the three girls ate slowly, not intending to leave.
Seeing this, Li Shaozhou relaxed and silently pulled out his phone. He clicked the link to the gaming city’s anniversary trade, “buy one, get one free,” that someone in the community had posted. “Brother Yi, do you have an appointment on the weekend?” Li Shaozhou kindly inquired.
Usually, when others asked Shi Yi to hang out, he declined, but unexpectedly, he asked, “Where?”
Upon hearing this, Li Shaozhou was excited and quickly showed the page on his mobile phone. “I have been to the video game city several times. It is very interesting.”
“Game City…” He said it softly, and after reading the introduction to the activity at a glance, he tapped his finger twice on the phone screen.
His eyes fell on the girl, who was eating seriously. “Ok.”
…………
On weekends, the video game city would become lively. Li Shaozhou rushed up first and bought a hundred game coins.
Seeing that, Jiang Mier gave him a thumbs up, saying, “Typical tyrant, he bought so much as soon as he came.”
Li Shaozhou smiled and shook his head. Then he put some of his game coins into Jiang Mier’s basket.
Shi Yi bought twenty game coins.
Seeing that Li Shaozhou suggested. “Brother Yi, buy more at once. How can these twenty be enough?”
“Enough.” He calmly handed the basket containing the game coins to Yu Zhiyi beside him for safekeeping, took her hand, and went straight to the coin pusher.
Li Shaozhou and Jiang Mier looked at each other and followed them suspiciously, wanting to see what the two of them were going to do.
He saw Shi Yi walk to the coin pusher, observed for a while, pinpointed the position, and controlled the time to put the game coins in. The coin pusher was squeezed out a bit, but coins had not yet fallen.
Shi Yi kept throwing in without a hurry and suddenly heard the sound of game coins falling, so he grabbed a handful from the coin drawer.
Yu Zhiyi triumphantly put all the game coins into the small basket. “Look, no need to buy so many coins.”
Li Shaozhou felt that his IQ was insulted.
……………
Jiang Mier was a sports girl. Generally, she was interested in shooting and driving games that boys were interested in.
But Yu Zhiyi’s taste was different. So in the end, she played in front of the music machine. As the rhythm of the music got faster and faster, Yu Zhiyi, who had only played two games, was sweating. “It’s a bit hot,” she said while wiping the sweat from her forehead with her hand.
Shi Yi quickly took out a tissue from his backpack and gave it to her. “Rest a while.”
Li Shaozhou and Jiang Mier were focusing on playing a diving game, so they were not aware of what was happening around them. After playing for a while, Li Shaozhou remembered two of his friends and looked around.
When he saw Shi Yi and Yu Zhiyi sitting on the bench not far away, he went there. “You two are not playing? Why are you sitting here? Get up and play.”
Before Shi Yi opened his mouth to refuse, Yu Zhiyi answered. “Brother, go and play with them for a while; I’ll wait for you here.”
Shi Yi didn’t move. “No need.”
“You must; otherwise, I’ll feel bad.” She became a little upset because she thought that Shi Yi couldn’t enjoy himself because of her.
When Shi Yi noticed the young girl’s earnest expression, he touched her head and urged her not to leave and get lost.
“I’m not a kid, you see.” In the city of video games, she could never get lost. And this was the only resting place, so it was best for her to stay here and wait.
When Shi Yi and Li Shaozhou went to play there, the game coins were all left in Yu Zhiyi’s hand.
She rested for a while and saw that there was an empty space in front of the music machine. She couldn’t help but drop coins and try.

Thank you so much for translating! I haven’t been so enchanted with a Chinese novel since the General’s Little Fairy.
