Only after quite a while do whispers start sounding in the vicinity. Wei Wei vaguely hears her and Xiao Nai's name mentioned repeatedly. Gradually, flickering glances also head towards them.

After some more time, the noise becomes louder; becoming a buzz. The glances at them increase and become more and more brazen...

Under everyone's unsettlement, Wei Wei suddenly becomes calm.

She starts learning from the Great Master, calmly turning to watch the game. As she looks, she's so shocked that she can't help but make an astonished sound.

The score on the court has actually become even!

Xiao Nai seems to know what she is surprised about and she hears him say flatly, "Don't worry, once they stop looking into the stands, their score will pull away again."

Because the gymnasium is noisy, he has to slightly lean towards her to speak, as if he's telling her a secret.  Their breathing is very close to each other and Wei Wei only needs to slightly lift her eyes to be able to clearly see his thick and long eyelashes...

It turns out, getting close is actually such a hair-raising thing.

Wei Wei lowers her eyes and looks at her hair that has fallen upon his wrist and makes an "Mmm" sound. Actually, she didn't even take note of what he was saying. She can only vaguely feel that their surroundings had become quiet again...

Only after the end of the third quarter does Er Xi wake up from her daze to call out, "How come our team is only leading by two points!

When Wei Wei hears her voice, she then remembers that she hasn't introduced Xiao Nai to her roommates yet. But Xiao Nai has been continuously watching the game before and it wasn't convenient to introduce them. Right now, he is still paying attention to the situation on the court. Wei Wei wants to call out to him, but is stomped by what the address him as.

Calling him senior male classmate is really weird...

Calling him NaiHe is even weirder; they're not in the online game...

Calling him Xiao Nai...eh...seems a bit embarrassing...how come the Great Master can call her Wei Wei so naturally >o<

Fortunately, very soon Xiao Nai withdraws his eyesight from the courts, allowing Wei Wei to avoid suffering from pondering. Wei Wei promptly says, "That, they are my roommates," prompting Xiao Nai to look at the three sitting next to her whose speech abilities have just been restored. She introduces them in succession, "Xiao Ling, Er Xi, Si Si."

Xiao Nai's eyes sweeps over them and then slightly smiles and says, "Hello."

As a result...

the three's consciousness that have just come back are jolted away again.

Wei Wei becomes straight faced.

Sure enough, people need to be compared to see who's the best. Compared to them, her own behavior is really too good.

After the fourth quarter starts, it is as Xiao Nai had said before, the score is pulled apart again. The Computer Science department has pretty much locked in the win. As the end of the game nears, Xiao Nai suddenly says, "YuGong and MonkeyWine are down there, do you want to go say hi?"

Wei Wei is startled and then asks, "Is it number 10 and 11?"

The two that she is talking about are precisely those two who had run up to Xiao Nai has he entered earlier.

Xiao Nai nods.

"What about MoZhaHim?"

"He didn't come."
