DCBS: Chapter 86

Li Yayi’s mood was quite different from the last time when she knocked for a second time on the door that still had the Spring Festival couplets attached to them.

She exchanged looks with her cameraman colleagues next to her. They both knew the special features of today’s interview.

The protagonist in the lens would be an intelligent robot.

If they were lucky, maybe two.

There was a short wait and the door opened. Li Yayi was ready to greet Pei Qingyuan. Her eyes were about to sweep over his previously completely ignored wrist without a trace, looking for a mysterious black watch.

However, she saw an unfamiliar face beside Pei Qingyuan.

“Good afternoon.” Pei Qingyuan’s voice was flat.

The young man next to him also followed him. “Good afternoon~”

Two very different voices stacked together. One was obviously cold and the other warm but there was a strange harmony.

Li Yayi was stunned before quickly saying, “Long time no see. I am disturbing you.”

This family, which originally had Pei Qingyuan living alone, suddenly had an extra member.

She looked around curiously. The funny, handwritten Spring Festival couplets pasted on the kitchen door, the jelly bean robot on the workbench and the dolls and cute decorations that could be seen everywhere were still present, but there were a few more things.

For example, various reference books spread out on the coffee table, there was a large plate of fragrant, fresh fruit, volleyballs placed in a corner of the living room and a pair of bracers and knee pads thrown on a chair.

There was more of a youthful atmosphere in the warm room.

Li Yayi remembered that there was no such person from the mouths of the students who knew Pei Qingyuan.

During this time, she had occasional contact with Pei Qingyuan. She didn’t feel too awkward so she asked curiously, “Is this your relative?”

Pei Qingyuan replied, “No, a friend.”

He saw what she was thinking from the sudden realization in Li Yayi’s eyes and added, “A new friend made during the holidays.”

The young man immediately came up to greet her. “Hello, my name is Ji Tong.”

Li Yayi quickly responded but her heart was even more dazed.

It turned out that during the holiday, Pei Qingyuan did go on a trip with a friend in a real sense.

So what about the watch?

Before the interview officially began, Pei Qingyuan dispelled her attempt to stare at the black dial with a calm sentence, “It is just a watch.”

He didn’t acknowledge the speculation online.

There was also no outright denial.

Li Yayi had witnessed the emotion flowing from Pei Qingyuan’s eyes on the day of the interview and didn’t think he was lying.

Perhaps Pei Qingyuan didn’t want to make the secret of the watch public and decided to avoid it, just like his family problem. It was just a coincidence that he met new friends during the holidays.

However, the relationship between the two of them was filled with a natural and casual atmosphere. It was as if they had known each other for a long time. With her understanding of Pei Qingyuan, this cold provincial champion didn’t look like a character who would quickly get close to a new person.
