"Umm… why don’t we discuss it when we meet later in the evening?"  An Yan was having trouble continuing the conversation because he was being watched by so many people.

In the next instant, everyone withdrew their eyes in sync. One of the students even gave An Yan a look that said, "You guys go on, we didn’t hear anything."

An Yan: "…"

Cheng Yi did not support An Yan’s decision like he usually would. He paused for a moment and said, with a bit of grievance, "Is Yan Yan not willing to team up with me? Although I may not be able to win the championship, I am not weak in piloting mecha, so I hope Yan Yan will have confidence in me."

An Yan quickly denied.

"No, it’s not that I’m unwilling to team up with you, it’s just that..."

An Yan was cut off before he could finish his sentence, "So Yan Yan is willing to team up with me?"

"Of course I..." An Yan almost fell for it, but fortunately, his sanity stopped him in time. "Of course, I have to first think about it seriously."

Cheng Yi didn’t succeed in tricking An Yan, and he sighed with slight regret. His tone seemed even more aggrieved: "If Yan Yan really doesn’t want to team up with me, it doesn’t matter. In fact, it’s okay not to participate in this competition."

An Yan was a bit confused. What was the relationship between not teaming up and not participating in this competition?

Cheng Yi sighed and continued pitifully, "I only want to team up with Yan Yan. If Yan Yan is not willing, then I will have to give up this competition. "

For some reason, An Yan's first reaction was to blush instead of feeling embarrassed.

This reaction startled even him, and he hastily covered up, "If... if senior doesn’t mind, then I’ll team up with you."

"So Yan Yan is promising me?" Cheng Yi’s voice, which was still full of grievances one moment, became lighter the next. He even brought up a faint smile.

An Yan did not dare think about what was wrong with his state. He just nodded his head repeatedly and said, "Mmm."

Having gotten what he wanted, Cheng Yi softened his voice and said, "Thank you, Yan Yan, for being willing to team up with me. You can take your classes normally and we’ll discuss the competition in detail when we have dinner tonight."

"Eh? But didn’t we just have dinner together last night?" An Yan thought back carefully. It seemed that not only last night, but the night before and the night before that, he had eaten with Cheng Yi.

Cheng Yi, however, did not think so: "We are discussing business this time, so we should of course have dinner together."

"But I already made plans with other classmates to have dinner together in the evening." An Yan hesitantly said.

Cheng Yi, on the other hand, said without hesitation, "I don’t mind having dinner with your classmates, and I don’t think they would mind either, right?"

Cheng Yi was already jealous more than once because the little one was getting closer and closer to his classmates.

But in the face of the simple-minded little one, he wouldn’t understand it even if he hinted. But he was also afraid of scaring the little one if he said it directly. So, in the end, he could only hold the jealousy in his heart and sulk alone.

Cheng Yi thought about this jealousy for a long time and finally decided to take a jagged approach to it.

He would start with the people around the little one, and let them know through his actions that he is the only one who can match the little one. This will save them from having any undesirable thoughts about the little one.

An Yan hadn’t thought of this possibility before, but since Cheng Yi had taken the initiative to ask, he couldn’t say no directly, "Then I’ll first ask them if they’re willing to eat with you."

As soon as the words left his mouth, he saw the few people who had asked An Yan to have dinner with him quickly turn around and say, in voices that could not hide their excitement, "We don’t mind!"

 Having dinner with Senior Cheng Yi was a beautiful thing that they couldn’t even think about. How could they possibly mind now that the opportunity was right in front of them?

They would be envied to death if the others knew that they had eaten with Senior Cheng Yi.

Other students sitting nearby rushed over and said with special enthusiasm, "An Yan, are you free tomorrow morning? Can we have breakfast together? It would be great if we could have breakfast together with Mr. Cheng Yi! "

“I’d like to have breakfast with you too. If not breakfast, then lunch is fine. If not for lunch, then dinner is fine too! "

“If tomorrow doesn’t work, the day after tomorrow is fine. If not, the day after next week is fine too!"

"I can wait in line no matter what time it is!"

……

An Yan was taken aback by the enthusiasm of these people and stammered to Cheng Yi who was laughing darkly over the communication, "Well… senior, why don’t we talk about it later?"

Cheng Yi said with a low smile, "Okay, goodbye little one."

Perhaps it was because Cheng Yi’s voice was too magnetic, but An Yan could feel his ears burning a bit. When he hung up, he was still thinking: why did the senior call him "little one"? Was it because he was a hamster spirit?

But he soon didn’t have the time to ponder this question. At this time, his surroundings were already full of students.

An Yan hesitantly asked, "Umm… you all really want to eat with Senior Cheng Yi?"

The people around him nodded one after another, "Definitely. I guess there’s no one in the college who doesn’t want to eat with Senior Cheng Yi."

As soon as the words left his mouth, he heard Cheng Yang say, "No, there are still people like that, such as me."

Then he was completely squeezed out.

Cheng Yang: "…" Do you guys still remember that I am your Senior Cheng Yi’s real brother?

The students no longer remembered such trivial things. All they knew now was that the students who had previously made a dinner date with An Yan for the evening would soon be having dinner with Senior Cheng Yi.

Although they hadn’t been able to take advantage of this opportunity, there was still the next time and the next time after that. As long as they had a good relationship with An Yan, they could always wait!

An Yan looked at Cheng Yang, who was squeezed out of the crowd, and inexplicably felt even weaker and more helpless than him. He subconsciously swallowed and said weakly, "This evening is purely a coincidence. If you really want to have dinner with Senior Cheng Yi, you can contact him directly. "

“But we can’t contact him at all! I can’t even get his contact number! "

"It’s forbidden to add friends and private messages to his virtual online account, and he hasn’t posted anything for months, right?"

"That’s right. Senior Cheng Yi is so cool that he can’t even be found on the school intranet…"

…..

An Yan inexplicably felt that the Cheng Yi he knew was probably not the same Cheng Yi they were talking about.

The Cheng Yi he knew was friendly, kind-hearted, and had helped him many times. The Cheng Yi these people were talking about was.....cold?

There is no relationship between the two.

But he concluded that these people may not have had any contact with Cheng Yi before, and their knowledge of him was only hearsay: "Let me tell you, senior Cheng Yi is actually a very good person. He is very kind to people; he never puts on airs. He would even take the initiative to help people. "

There was silence all around by the time An Yan finished his words. Everyone was staring at An Yan with a serious expression, as if he had said something really outrageous.

An Yan was a little uncomfortable, and he blinked his eyes as he asked, "What…… what’s wrong?"

He didn’t say anything strange just now.

The nearest classmate spoke seriously, "An Yan, I think you may have a misconception about Senior Cheng Yi."

A classmate nodded in agreement, "I think so too. So we need to help you correct this cognitive error."

I’ll start. A student dared to provoke Senior Cheng Yi earlier and was dragged to the arena and beaten up. "

"Being beaten up is not the point. The point is that this one-sided abuse happened in the real arena. In other words, they were actually piloting mechas in a battle against each other. "

“So here’s the point: it is said that when this sparring match ended, the student who provoked him had a completely ruined mecha, the kind that can’t even be repaired."

"Apart from this incident, there is another thing that is also widely circulated."

"It is said that last summer, a girl plucked up the courage to confess her love to Senior Cheng Yi and was directly rejected on the spot."

"The point is that after being rejected, the girl cried and slipped the gift she had prepared into Senior Cheng Yi’s hand."

" Senior Cheng Yi threw the gift straight into the rubbish bin."

At that time, this girl cried and asked Senior Cheng Yi why he did that, but he only said one thing back."

"Since you’ve already given it to me, do I need to ask your opinion on what to do with it?’ That’s what Senior Cheng Yi said at the time. "

"Apart from these two incidents, I know of an equally famous incident."

……

An Yan’s expression became increasingly subtle as he listened to everyone piecing together things that they all seemed go know. By the time the picture came out, his face was already serious.

The students’ expressions were equally serious: "So An Yan, now you should know what kind of person Senior Cheng Yi is, right?"

Cheng Yi, who had just entered the mecha and was completing an S-rank difficulty training session on the training ground, suddenly sneezed. An insectoid scraped on his mech arm, and his damage level instantly went from 0% to 0.1%.

He pressed his nose. Could it be that the little one missed him?

 An Yan sighed heavily and corrected in an extra serious tone, "Although you have described so much, it does sound like it’s true, but are all these things what you saw with your own eyes?"

Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads in unison.

Seeing this, An Yan seriously concluded, "So I think the one who has a wrong perception of Senior Cheng Yi is not me, but you guys."

He realized that the person who had been suffering the most from the rumors was actually Senior Cheng Yi.

When he thought that Cheng Yi had never mentioned this matter in front of him, let alone shown any displeasure, An Yan couldn’t help but admire his open-mindedness. Senior was surrounded by so many rumours and was not affected at all.

Seeing the obvious sympathy and admiration on An Yan’s face, the students around him were puzzled.
