Reincarnation: Trying to pretend to be ordinary, but it turns out it's really impossible.

The scene I expected didn't happen; instead, I felt something soft on my forehead, and a gentle kiss landed on my forehead.

She paused for a moment, and a thought inexplicably popped into her mind: Is she... really that innocent?

As soon as she opened her eyes, Ji Chongyan lowered his head and gently kissed her left cheek.

Before she could react, she was gently kissed on her right cheek.

Lin Jiajia was speechless, suddenly feeling like she was dating an elementary school student.

She looked up at Ji Chongyan and found that his ears were already bright red.

This man, who is usually aloof and unapproachable, is actually this nervous.

Upon seeing this, she burst out laughing, and the tension she had felt earlier vanished instantly.

She simply reached out and wrapped her arms around his neck, then stood on tiptoe and kissed him on the lips.

"We're all adults, your way of showing affection is too childish."

Ji Chongyan's cheeks flushed, his ears burned even hotter, and he softly hummed in agreement.

He said in a serious tone:

"Then I'll learn... and improve next time."

Lin Jiajia smiled, her eyes crinkling, and kissed him on the cheek again, waving goodbye.

"I'm going in now!"

After saying that, she turned around and skipped into the school.

Ji Chongyan stood there, watching Lin Jiajia's back, a smile unconsciously spreading across his face, his eyes filled with undisguised joy.

Only after the figure completely disappeared from sight did he slowly withdraw his gaze and turn to walk towards his car.

The car turned around and, instead of heading back to its lodgings, drove straight to a private boxing gym in the city center.

For the next half hour, he hit the sandbag repeatedly, and sweat dripped down his forehead.

As he was waving his arms, a sudden inspiration struck him.

He finally remembered why Su Ningning's photos looked so familiar.

Isn't that Lin Jiajia's roommate?

Lin Jiajia had previously sent Su Ningning a video of her heroic act.

The girl in the video who was quick and agile and subdued the troublemaker in a few moments,

Her features are cool and aloof, and she looks completely different from the image in the photos.

It was because of this person that he started to train in boxing.

Ji Chongyan stopped, pulled off his boxing gloves, and a slight smile unconsciously appeared on his lips.

He remembered something: Ji Tianheng was now also on the e-sports team.

Relying on his status and background, he was arrogant and looked down on everyone, looking down on no one.

Once Su Ningning is officially transferred to the first team, the two will definitely meet again.

Given Su Ningning's personality—she doesn't tolerate anyone and is quick to resort to violence—combined with Ji Tianheng's arrogant and domineering demeanor...

Just imagining the scene made Ji Chongyan feel that there would definitely be a lot of exciting things to come.

He wished Su Ningning could beat Ji Yunheng half to death.

The fact that Lin Jiajia's affair was a major trigger for the irreconcilable conflict between him and Ji Yunheng.

But the real roots were planted long ago, when I was a child.

He had noticed since childhood that Ji Yunheng's character was truly despicable.

Relying on being the second young master of the Ji family, he acted lawlessly, engaging in early romantic relationships and causing trouble at a young age. He even got a girl pregnant and forced her to have an abortion.

He indulged in all sorts of vices, from drinking and gambling to bullying others. Ji Yunheng was involved in almost every imaginable evil.

He was even made to take the blame several times, and the main point is that his parents always sided with him and made him give in to his younger brother. Ha!

In Ji Chongyan's mind, this kind of person is not worthy of the surname Ji at all.

What bothered him even more was that Ji Yunheng had harbored hatred towards him since childhood, always feeling that Ji Chongyan had stolen everything that should have belonged to him.

It seems as if the entire Ji Group was destined to be Ji Yunheng's.

Jealous, ruthless, and unrestrained.

Everything about Ji Yunheng disgusted Ji Chongyan to the core.

As international flights landed, the entire city was enveloped in twilight.

The members of Tianchen Esports Team 1 walked into the base with their suitcases, their movements unusually quiet.

This time, we traveled all the way to the West Coast Joint Division to participate in the Intercontinental Champions Cup.

They set off full of expectations, but ultimately failed to even make it to the finals, ending up empty-handed and returning home dejected.

The heavy weight of defeat pressed down on everyone, making even breathing feel suffocating.

As soon as they put down their luggage, the team leader called everyone to the conference room and got straight to the point, announcing the news.

"A new talent has emerged from our youth training program, named Su Ningning. She's been dominating the national competitions, her performance is outstanding."

"It's already decided. He'll be promoted directly to the first team after the tournament ends."

The room fell silent instantly.

Some people subconsciously tensed their shoulders.

The number of spots in Team 1 is fixed. When someone joins, it means that someone else will be eliminated and relegated to Team 2.

The oppressive atmosphere in the air grew even heavier.

The poor performance in international competitions already made everyone uneasy, and now this additional incident has left everyone with a heavy weight on their minds.

Ji Yunheng, however, leaned back in his chair, twirling a pen casually between his fingers, looking completely indifferent.

His teammates' gazes fell on him, their expressions a mixture of complex emotions and frustration.

Everyone knows perfectly well who's dragging the team down in this intercontinental competition.

He lost points in team fights, couldn't understand tactics, and was targeted and collapsed by the opposing Northern team. Several times, his teammates did their best to save him.

He was the one who dragged the whole team down, causing them to fail to even get a ranking, yet he showed no remorse whatsoever.

Just because he is the second young master of the Ji family, Tianchen Esports is an industry owned by the Ji Group.

In terms of skill, he was the weakest member of the team.

In terms of position, he is the most stable one.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Ji Yunheng looked up, his tone carrying an innate sense of entitlement.

"There aren't enough spots, so I won't be one of the players to be kicked."

No one responded.

Jealousy, resentment, and anger were all suppressed deep in his heart.

No matter how dissatisfied they were, and how clear they knew he was not up to the task, they could only swallow their anger.

Everyone knows that this elimination is unlikely to fall on Ji Yunheng.

Even if he was absolutely certain that the club would eliminate everyone else, they would never touch him in the slightest,

After returning to his private rest room, Ji Yunheng patiently opened the replay of Su Ningning's match.

In the video, the girl moves nimbly and executes her moves with precision and ruthlessness, crushing her opponents throughout the competition.

Every team fight was fought with great strategy, demonstrating overwhelming strength.

Ji Yunheng stared at the screen, his fingers gripping his phone tightly, a deep jealousy surging in his eyes.

He simply couldn't understand how an unknown nobody who had worked his way up from a small town could possibly understand this.

How can someone possess such formidable esports talent? Why was he exceptionally promoted to the first team by the club?

A surge of resentment rose from the depths of his heart. He sneered inwardly, waiting for Su Ningning to officially join the team.

He was determined to teach her a lesson and show her what it meant to be in this industry.

Having top-notch talent alone is useless; background and power are the foundation for survival.

My gaze returned to Su Ningning's face, that sweet, obedient, soft, and harmless appearance.

This made him smile with a hint of disdain and amusement.

The girls who seem innocent and docile, the more he plays around with them, the more likely they are to be timid and cowardly at heart.

With just a little pressure and a few scare words, they can easily be frightened into tears.

Immediately, he began to daydream to himself, what if this newcomer, Su Ningning, were sensible...

They listened to him without question, worked tirelessly and obediently, always going along with him and revolving around him.

Considering her obedient appearance, it wouldn't be unreasonable for him to occasionally offer her some words of advice.

He kept replaying the image of Su Ningning being completely subservient to him in his mind.

The team was initially frustrated due to the international defeat and the resulting instability within the team.

He felt much more at ease instantly, and his gaze as he watched the match video became more playful.
