Chapter 84: I’m Looking for a Game Sparring Partner
“Do you like to play games?” Lisa asked.
Jennie nodded fiercely. “Of course. We young people all like to play games.”
She specially emphasized on the “we”. Was that to tell him that they were not of the same circle??Thinking of this, Lisa took Jennie’s phone and opened the game software. He wanted to play a round too!
He was Lisa and Fog. How could a mere game stump him?
Jennie watched quietly from the side with a face full of curiosity. This was the first time she had seen President Manoban play games. However, the battle situation was not very good. Thirteen minutes later, the words “failure” were especially eye-catching on the screen.
Mr. Manoban had lost, and it wasn’t just a huge loss. He was beaten up by the other party one-sided. He wanted to show off in front of his wife, but he accidentally revealed his shortcomings.
Lisa had mixed feelings and didn’t know what to say.
“It’s fine, it’s fine. It’s your first time playing it. Moreover, your ability to accept such new things shouldn’t be strong at your age. It’s understandable.” Jennie tried to ease the awkwardness and comforted him softly.
However, it was better not to say these words because Lisa’s frown deepened once he heard those words. At his age? He’s not that old, right? He knew that the lass’s words were innocent, but was there a need to hurt him again and again?
“I only slipped up for a moment. Besides, my learning ability is extremely strong. I guarantee that I can surpass your teammates within a week for this game.” Lisa was stubborn. Even if he lost, he would never lower his head.
“Okay, okay, okay.” Jennie felt that the current Lisa was like a child who had not eaten candy. He was clearly so mature, yet she still had to coax him.
However, Lisa wasn’t joking. When he saw Jennie skipping back into the house, he immediately took out his phone and called his assistant, Mo qing.
“Mo qing, go and arrange a few of the best game coaches for me. The sooner the better. Then, adjust my schedule for the next week and give me three hours of gaming lessons every day,” Lisa said.
“President… President Manoban, is it the kind of game you play on the phone?” Mo qing had been with his master for so long, but this was the first time he had received such a strange request.
“Yes! Remember, the sooner the better. Of course, the effect must be guaranteed!”
After hanging up the phone, Mo qing twisted his ears fiercely to make sure that he wasn’t dreaming.
Heavens, so many things happen between countries and cities every day. President Manoban didn’t care about all these when he’s the regiment commander. Instead, he was so obsessed with a mobile game. It was an inexplicable and sudden obsession.
This… this must be related to Young Madam.
Mo qing finally understood. Only the Young Madam could make his boss react like this.
As the saying goes, you can’t make bricks without straw. No matter how amazing Lisa’s skills in the wilderness were, he wouldn’t be able to withstand every meal of wild vegetables.
Jennie didn’t say that she didn’t have an appetite, but he thought that as long as he left the countryside early in the afternoon, he would be able to find a convenience store. At that time, it would be a good choice to buy some snacks for Jennie.
When they left, Jennie was still a little sad. No matter how many years had passed, this would always be the place where her memories began.
There were smiles and tears, and there were the purest emotions. Her parents were gone, and she was going to leave too. The once lively courtyard would be like the surrounding wilderness, silent from now on.
She never liked to cry, but in the blink of an eye, cold tears dripped onto her clothes and stained them.
“I know you can’t bear to part with them. I’ll bring you back often in the future.” Every time Jennie was sad, his heart ached so much that he didn’t know what to do.
Who could say for sure what would happen in the future? But even if she didn’t come back often in the future, Lisa’s words at this moment were a huge comfort. Jennie nodded, gritted her teeth, turned around, and walked straight into the car without looking back.
After two and a half hours of bumpy journey, the two of them finally saw a convenience store. Considering the accident when they first arrived, Lisa insisted that Jennie stay in the car while he went down to buy milk, drinks, bread, and ham sausage.
“Jennie, you must be hungry, right? Eat something to fill your stomach first.”
Jennie took the milk that Lisa had already opened and took two sips. Although it was already past three in the afternoon, she wasn’t very hungry. She was just surprisingly tired. However, she didn’t fall asleep as the path swayed.
