Chapter 1055 Yandere E-sports Brother vs. Gentle Doctor Sister (18)

Shen Shuyi stayed up late watching a movie with 66 last night, and got up early this morning. She fell asleep as soon as she got in the car.

Jiang Ye noticed that she had fallen asleep, so he boldly moved over, put his arm around her shoulder, and let Shen Shuyi lean against him to sleep.

Looking at Shen Shuyi now, her state of mind is completely different from before.

Jiang Ye couldn't control his gaze at all; he kept staring at her.

He gently stroked her fair face with his fingers, then withdrew his hand after just a moment, afraid of waking her.

Once home, the designated driver left.

Jiang Ye originally intended to wake Shen Shuyi, but somehow he leaned over and his thin lips landed on the corner of Shen Shuyi's lips.

So soft.

Jiang Ye's heart was pounding.

Shen Shuyi opened her eyes. "What's wrong?"

What are you doing coming closer?

Jiang Ye'ergen became an internet sensation after saying, "I... I wanted to unbuckle my sister's seatbelt."

"We're home."

"We're here." Shen Shuyi pinched the bridge of her nose. "I'm still a little sleepy."

Jiang Ye found her sleepy-eyed appearance quite adorable.

"Sister, how about we take a nap before going to T City?"

"I'll take you to the airport then."

"Okay, that's the only way, but I'm afraid I'll oversleep."

"It's okay if you oversleep. You can have dinner and leave tomorrow."

"No, I've already booked my plane ticket."

Jiang Ye's eyes darkened slightly. "Then you can sleep soundly. I'll wake you up when it's time."

"Okay." Shen Shuyi snuggled into bed as soon as she got home.

……

When Shen Shuyi actually left Jiang Ye's side, she was a little confused as she looked at the system whose favorability rating was about to be maxed out.

[Dear host, the favorability rating is just a little bit short. Why don't you just max it out and complete the mission?]
Shen Shuyi chuckled, "He doesn't even dare to confess, what's the point of secretly increasing my favorability rating?"

"Besides, I prefer training puppies and want to see them lose their temper."

[Hehe, be careful not to get burned while playing with fire QAQ]
The courtyard of the Shen family's old house was bathed in warm sunshine. At the dinner table, the father mentioned the company's latest project: the development of a thousand-year-old tomb in the suburbs, with plans to build a provincial-level ancient tomb museum. Government cooperation was the most difficult part, but the Jiang family helped to make it happen.

"It was Jiang Zhengxiao, the head of the Jiang family, who personally intervened and helped us a lot," the father said with emotion. "This young master is so reliable."

Shen Shuyi raised an eyebrow but did not reply.

On the day of the project launch meeting, Shen Shuyi attended as a representative of the Shen family.

When the meeting room door was pushed open, she looked up and saw a tall figure walk in. His handmade dark gray suit was perfectly pressed, and his cuffs were adorned with understated jade cufflinks. His eyes and brows possessed a gentle maturity that Jiang Ye lacked, yet his aura exuded the composure of someone in a superior position.

This is Jiang Ye's half-brother, Jiang Zhengxiao.

When Jiang Zhengxiao's gaze fell on Shen Shuyi, he paused noticeably, then stepped forward, extended his hand, and said in a humble and polite tone, "Miss Shen, I am Jiang Zhengxiao."

"Hello Mr. Jiang, my company owes a great debt to you this time." Shen Shuyi shook hands lightly and then withdrew her hand.

After the meeting, Jiang Zhengxiao deliberately lingered until no one was around before speaking softly, "Miss Shen, I should thank you on behalf of my father." Shen Shuyi looked up, her eyes calm and undisturbed.

“Jiang Ye suffered a lot when he was young. Last year’s car accident almost ruined him.” Jiang Zhengxiao’s tone was complicated, with estrangement and pity, but no disgust. “The doctors said he would have a hard time recovering. You saved him. The Jiang family owes you this.”

Shen Shuyi smiled faintly, her tone distant yet polite: "Mr. Jiang, you're too kind. My dealing with him was a transaction, and the Jiang family helping the Shen family was a collaboration. We're even, so there's no need for thanks."

"Besides, we are friends now, and as a friend, I am very willing to help him."

Meanwhile, at the AE training base thousands of miles away, the sounds of keyboards clapping and mice clicking never ceased day or night, and the lights in the training room were almost never off.

On the computer screen, the hero's skills flashed and danced. In the instant the team fight broke out, Jiang Ye's fingers flew, his positioning was perfect, his skills were precisely linked, and his operation was smooth and seamless. He initiated the team fight perfectly, made zero mistakes and reaped the kills, leading his team to end the game in one fell swoop, and he did it cleanly without any hesitation.

He took off his headphones, his bangs damp with a thin layer of sweat, clinging to his full forehead. The restraint and awkwardness he usually showed when facing Shen Shuyi had completely disappeared, leaving only the cold sharpness unique to a professional player, his eyes sharp as blades.

The captain patted him heavily on the shoulder, his voice brimming with excitement: "Perfect! Ye-ge, our teamwork right now is absolutely world-class! The international finals championship is in the bag!"

Jiang Ye's teammates gathered around, cheering and teasing him, but he only twitched the corners of his lips, his gaze unconsciously falling on the phone on the corner of the table.

The screen was completely black and silent; there were no messages, no incoming calls.

For the past month, he poured all his surging longing and restless energy into relentless training. Day and night replays and countless team battles honed their teamwork to perfection.

But the more exhausted he was, the clearer Shen Shuyi's image became in the dead of night: the corners of her eyes when she smiled, the raised eyebrows when she teased him, and the resolute back she left behind without ever looking back.

Countless times he picked up his phone, his fingertips hovering over the dial button, ready to hear her voice with just a gentle press.

But he dared not.

He was afraid that the moment he heard her voice, he would drop everything and rush to T City to be in front of her.

What I fear even more is that I will lose control and confess my feelings in a pathetic way before I have even reached a higher level.

What he wanted to give her was never a fleeting flutter of the heart, nor a hidden affection; it was the glory of standing on the podium at the World Finals, holding the championship trophy, a dignified qualification that no one dared to question.

He wanted to stand before her with his most outstanding achievements, and tell her, clearly and solemnly, word by word:

Shen Shuyi, I, Jiang Ye, like you.

It's not a secret concern, it's a desire to keep you firmly by my side, a love that lasts a lifetime.

Jiang Ye gripped his phone tightly, his knuckles turning bluish-white, and gazed out at the deep night, his eyes filled with an almost obsessive determination.

The system was frantically prompting Shen Shuyi in her mind:
[Host! Jiang Ye's favorability has skyrocketed! It's at 99! Just one more point away!]
Shen Shuyi was sitting on her balcony, holding a cup of warm tea in her fingers, quietly gazing at the lights of thousands of homes in T City. Upon hearing this, she chuckled softly, her voice gentle yet full of certainty.

"They're having a competition next week, right? As his good older sister, of course I have to go and support them."

She picked up the phone and called Jiang Ye.

Jiang Ye had just finished showering and was lying in bed when he received a call from Shen Shuyi. His hand trembled slightly, and his voice trembled almost imperceptibly.

"Sister, aren't you asleep yet?"

Shen Shuyi's sweet voice came from the other end, "Ah? Xiao Ye, you're asleep? Did I disturb your rest?"

"No!" Jiang Ye quickly replied, "I haven't slept yet, it's still early."

"Don't stay up too late, okay? You have a competition coming up soon. I'll come see you there, but please don't let me see any pandas."

"Sister, you've decided to come?"

"Hmm, you're not welcoming me?"

"Welcome. I'll pick you up at the airport and then take you backstage." Jiang Ye had so much to say to Shen Shuyi.
