Quick Wear: Love still depends on two love brains

The light in the corridor was a bit cold and white, stretching the shadow of Bing Lanxin in her high heels very long.

She stood outside the door of Quan Jiuxi's lounge, her fingertips unconsciously stroking the strap of her bag, and her slightly furrowed brows concealed an indescribable complexity.

"Sister Xin, do you think there's anything wrong with them?"

"What level of existence is Xi Lanxiu? And what stage is Quan Jiuxi in now? If there really is something going on between these two, it would cause a tsunami-level disturbance if word got out."

Tailin scratched his head, a look of innocent confusion on his face. "But...but they don't seem to be doing anything together. Aside from the recording session, they're even more distant than ordinary colleagues."

"You have to be more careful when you're distant." Bing Lanxin sneered, her eyes showing the sharpness of someone who has experienced it. "Only those who are truly hiding something will make every effort to show it in public. Do you think those paparazzi are just there to eat for free?

Last time, Quan Jiuxi's fan club was chasing him at the airport and even dug out the brand of the mineral water his assistant was holding, not to mention the crew environment where they spend every day together."

She paused, her eyes falling on the closed door of the lounge. The door was like an invisible barrier, separating the two worlds inside and outside.

"You and I both know how crucial Quan Jiuxi's rise is. From being the second female lead in web dramas to now being able to take on big-budget films, how many people were eyeing her position during this period?

Last month alone, three competing companies wanted to poach the executive brokers on her team. Why do you think that was?"

Tailin's expression gradually grew serious. He knew how turbulent things were in this industry. "But...but if they were really together, wouldn't it be better to just make it official?"

"Official announcement?" Bing Lanxin raised her eyebrows slightly as if she had heard something incredible.

"Do you think Xi Lanxiu's fans will agree? His female fans can line up from here to the airport. Last time, a co-star accidentally put her arm around him, and even though his studio issued a statement overnight, it couldn't suppress the trending topics.

Quan Jiuxi is now going international and will be walking the red carpet at Cannes next month. If something like this were to break out at this critical juncture, do you believe that marketing accounts would be accusing her of 'scheming to get ahead' the next day?"

After all, it is well known that Xi Lanxiu's family is a wealthy family.

There was a hint of disappointment in her voice, and her gaze fell back on the door: "I'm not targeting anyone, I just think it's not worth it.

Sister Chen spent three years pulling Quan Jiuxi out of the mud, pushing aside countless hidden rules and blocking countless dirty waters to get to where she is today. She has the potential to become an international film queen, and she can't let this happen."

Tailin didn't say anything else, but subconsciously moved closer to the door, wanting to listen to the movement inside.

But after putting my ear to it for a long time, I couldn't hear anything except my own heartbeat. The soundproofing in the lounge was amazing, not even the whispers of the people inside could get through.

"That's strange," Tailin straightened up and scratched his head in confusion. "Even if the soundproofing is good, there shouldn't be no sound at all, right?"

Bing Lanxin also frowned. She took a half step back and looked at the ordinary-looking wooden door.

Quan Jiuxi's lounge was specially arranged by the crew. They chose the most secluded corner. Unexpectedly, even the sound insulation was so perfect.

This feeling of "not being able to hear anything" is more annoying than hearing something.

"Could it be some special equipment installed?" Tailin's voice was filled with speculation. "Last time, I heard from the props team that some celebrities' lounges have signal blockers installed to prevent secret filming or recording..."

Bing Lanxin didn't respond, but just stood there with her arms folded, her eyes heavy.

From refusing to sign a hidden contract in the talent show to later turning down big productions to protect her own team, she has her own methods for everything she does and will not be easily manipulated.

Since he was close to Xi Lanxiu this time, he might have already thought of a way to deal with it.

At this moment, the door of the lounge was suddenly opened a crack from the inside, and Lin Tian's figure peeked out.

She obviously didn't expect there to be two people standing at the door. She paused for a moment, but it was quickly replaced by a gentle smile.

Tai Lin was just moving forward to listen to the noise when the door suddenly opened. He was so scared that he stumbled and almost bumped into Lin Tian.

He quickly took a half step back, waving his hands frantically: "Ah... Sweetie, what a coincidence, you came out to get some fresh air too?"

Lin Tian glanced at the two men's faces, and seeing the confusion and inquiry in their eyes, she felt relieved.

They didn't know that when they were at the door, Quan Jiuxi asked Xiaoyi to block out all sounds.

"Yeah, it's a bit stuffy in there, let's get some fresh air." Lin Tian smiled, her tone as natural as if she was talking about something very ordinary. "What are you two doing standing here? Are you looking for Jiuxi? She's talking to Lan Shen about the competition."

As soon as she finished speaking, Bing Lanxin snorted coldly.

She raised her eyes and glanced at Lin Tian, ​​said nothing, turned around and walked away in her high heels.

The sound of high heels hitting the ground was particularly clear in the empty corridor, carrying a sense of unspoken dissatisfaction.

She knew in her heart that Lin Tian's words were flawless. They not only explained the commotion inside, but also hinted that they should not stay here. If they continued to dwell on it, they would only appear petty.

Tai Lin looked at Bing Lanxin's back as she walked away, then looked at Lin Tian who was smiling gently in front of him, and was a little at a loss for a moment.

He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but didn't know where to start. In the end, he could only utter: "Then...then we won't bother you anymore. Let's talk after Sister Xi is done."

Lin Tian smiled and nodded, her gaze lingering on his face for two seconds. Seeing that he hadn't caught anything, she felt completely relieved. "Okay, I'll let her find you when she's done."

Tailin said "Oh", turned around and followed him, but there was a hint of confusion in his steps. After taking a few steps, he looked back, as if he was still wondering why he couldn't hear anything just now.

Lin Tian stood at the door and watched the two figures disappear at the end of the corridor, then she breathed a sigh of relief.

She raised her hand to tidy up the hair by her ears, her fingertips still felt a little cold - from being inside just now.

……

Everyone noticed one thing, which was that Lan Shen was in a particularly good mood.

Although he is still lazy, he has become much more patient.

Including those who were eliminated, there were still twenty guests left in the arena. The three teams' gazes drifted vaguely towards Quan Jiuxi. Everyone knew that this impromptu match was entertainment, but in reality it was a silent competition - to stand on the stage opposite Quan Jiuxi was itself a traffic secret.

On the stage, Tianlong had already begun compiling the list of participants, and the staff were bringing in two separate gaming chairs. As Quan Jiuxi stood up and walked towards the stage, she passed by Su Miao. She suddenly looked up, a stubborn glint in her eyes. "Sister Xi, I want to play a game with you."

The surroundings instantly fell silent; even the passing cameraman stopped in his tracks. Su Miao's hand trembled as she clutched her phone, but her voice remained remarkably firm: "1v1, I want to try."

The barrage immediately went crazy:

[??? She was beaten like that just now, and she still dared to go up?]

[Is this an attempt to capitalize on the popularity or is there a real back-up plan? ]

Quan Jiuxi looked at her for two seconds and nodded slightly.

Tianlong's eyes lit up, and he immediately raised the microphone and shouted, "Okay! The first 1v1 matchup is Quan Jiuxi versus Su Miao! Family members, please show your expectations on the public screen!"

The light switched back and forth between the two people.

When Su Miao walked to the battle seat and sat down, her fingertips felt cold, and she suddenly remembered what her mother said when she was a child: "Being pretty is an advantage, but being brave enough to take risks is a real skill."

She knew that she would most likely lose, but being able to stand opposite Quan Jiuxi in the camera at this moment was the closest she had ever been to the fire.

Quan Jiuxi was still calm as he adjusted his headphones, his eyes fixed on the hero selection interface on the screen.

The delicate eyebrows and eyes are extremely beautiful, the high nose bridge, the rosy lips, every part of her face seems to be a work of art carefully carved by God.

Her skin was as white as snow, without a single blemish, and glowed faintly under the light.

Su Miao looked at Quan Jiuxi and wondered why this woman had no blemishes on her face.

She clenched her palms, jealousy welling up in her.

She felt that Quan Jiuxi was like an insurmountable mountain, and no matter how hard she tried, she could not reach her height.

Quan Jiuxi nodded slightly at the camera, and her beautiful and aggressive appearance triggered screams from the barrage of comments.

At that moment, she seemed to have become the focus of the entire world, with all the light focused on her.

Su Miao sat opposite Quan Jiuxi and blocked out several of Quan Jiuxi's favorite heroes.

Choose Diao Chan.

This is a t0 hero in a one-on-one fight in Honor of Kings. Generally speaking, no one can beat him.

And Quan Jiuxi didn't have any BP for any hero, and everyone could see that this was a naked mockery.

However, in esports, strength comes first. The hater's comments were quickly brushed off by Milkshake.

Quan Jiuxi chose Zhuang Zhou.

When this figure wearing a green robe and carrying a fishing rod appeared in the hero selection interface, the entire venue seemed to have pressed the mute button.

Three seconds later, a deafening roar of discussion erupted, nearly making commentator Tianlong bite his tongue. His hand holding the microphone froze in mid-air. "Quan... Quan Jiuxi chose Zhuang Zhou? This... am I seeing things right?"

The screen's comments instantly exploded, with dense text almost drowning out the screen:

Zhuang Zhou? Sister Xi, are you serious? Can this hero fight one-on-one?

[Su Miao uses Diao Chan, and she uses Zhuang Zhou? Is she planning to give up or does she have some trick up her sleeve?]

[Am I crazy or is the world crazy? Zhuang Zhou fights Diao Chan, isn't this an easy question?]

[Milkshakes are here! Trust Sister Xi! Everything she chooses makes sense!]

Su Miao sat on the battle seat, her fingers hovering above the skill key, and she was completely stunned.

She specifically chose Diao Chan - a hero who is almost unbeatable in single combat mode. She has short skill CD and strong mobility. As long as she stacks her passive, she can dance in the crowd. Many national players have fallen into her hands.

For this game, she stayed up all night to practice for five hours last night. She even memorized every displacement distance of Diao Chan in her mind. She was sure that Quan Jiuxi would choose assassins with good skills like Luna or Jing, so she even thought of the targeted equipment.

But Zhuang Zhou?

The support hero who is famous for "releasing control" and "slacking off"?

Su Miao's cheeks turned red instantly, not because of shyness, but because of the anger of being humiliated.

Zhuang Zhou's skill mechanism is not suitable for single combat at all - there is no hard control, and the output depends entirely on the superposition of passive and second skills. Facing a flexible magic assassin like Diao Chan, he is simply a mobile blood bag.

Quan Jiuxi was clearly telling everyone: Even with this kind of "mixed hero", he could still beat her.

"Heh." Su Miao sneered, tapping the screen with her fingertips. She bought the first Speed ​​Strike Gun. She wanted to let Quan Jiuxi know that there was a price to pay for underestimating the opponent.

However, Quan Jiuxi seemed not to notice the anger in the other's eyes. He slowly bought a pair of resistance boots and even stayed in the spring for two more seconds, as if waiting for Su Miao to set off first.
