Why are you always thinking about dating me?

Once in the game, Lin An rarely spoke. The opposing team had chosen a combination of Ashe and Nautilus, which was strong in both lane and team fights. The game started normally, but after reaching level three, the opposing team was pushed out of the experience zone.

Because Hanbing was hooked once, losing half her health and having to use Flash, which was more fatal than losing a Heal, Xu Qinghuan controlled the line, with a strawberry-flavored lollipop in her mouth, looking very lazy.

Lin An's positioning was also interesting, as he was positioned parallel to the minion wave. Nautilus and Ashe eventually pushed forward. Nautilus initiated with his Q on Thresh, but Thresh didn't move. Lin An pressed E to block Nautilus's position, preventing him from getting close enough to land an auto-attack and trigger Aftershock. Lin An immediately applied Ignite, and Xu Qinghuan followed up, adjusting her angle to auto-attack. After the three-hit combo ended, she used her E just as the opponent was about to use Flash.

Even though the opponent flashed, the angle still determined that E hit, which was the opponent's mistake. Thresh then used E again, and Ms. Xu Qinghuan's Vayne secured the first blood.

"The laning phase is over," Xiao Chacha muttered from the audience.

Ten minutes in, when Xu Qinghuan's AD carry had 90 CS, the enemy Ashe had 37 CS. The enemy team launched a 4v2 gank with their mid and jungle, but Lin An's wards detected it early and they retreated quickly, losing some gold. However, the enemy mid and jungle lost the Rift Herald and two turret plates in the mid lane as a result.

The laning phase was indeed over. At 15 minutes, Xu Qinghuan's Vayne was already 5/0. This was purely a difference in the bot lane. The mid laner played well and was able to hold his own against the pressure. The top laner died twice, but it wasn't a big deal. Next was forcing a dragon fight. After the dragon fight, Vayne and Thresh replenished their items and switched lanes to top. They took the second Rift Herald and then farmed. For the next dragon fight, Lin An forced another team fight. His first item was a Dry Chop. After one team fight, Xu Qinghuan's Vayne was already godlike.

The game ended at thirty-two minutes. Because Lin An and Xu Qinghuan didn't deliberately push the tower, Xu Qinghuan's final score was very good, and she even got a quadra kill. Lin An waved his hand, and the girls next to him were still cheering as if they had won a dream. Lin An stood up, waved his hand, and said, "Then I'll be leaving first?"

But as soon as he finished speaking, Ahri, the mid-laner sitting in the middle, stood up, walked up to her, extended a hand, and gently placed it on Lin An's shoulder.

"You play really well. How about coming to our team as a permanent support player? We can just play some exhibition matches and grudge matches in our spare time."

"No."

"Okay, okay, let's be friends? You're Qinghuan's friend? Why didn't Qinghuan tell me?"

"..."

Lin An could feel the inexplicable aggressive gaze in her eyes, as if she wanted to devour him. He frowned slightly. How could she be so open on the first meeting? Did she not even try to hide it?

He stood up from the chair. "No, I'm leaving."

"Wait a minute, hey, what's your name? I think we could really get to know each other." Her voice was gentle, but also inexplicably hurried, and her cheeks flushed slightly.

"Huh?" Lin An watched her walk towards him step by step, then reach out a hand and press him against the edge of the movable wall. The audience below the stage erupted in cheers, as if some kind of BL (Boys' Love) scene was about to unfold.

"What are you going to do?" Lin An looked directly into her eyes.

"You smell so good, little sister," she said.

"Are you fucking serious?" Lin An's lips twitched.

"Don't swear, it's unpleasant to hear. Such a handsome face..." She reached out and gently touched his cheek with her fingertips. In Lin An's view, he could see Xu Qinghuan sitting there laughing so hard she almost choked.

Lin An grabbed her hand that was stroking his cheek. "What are you doing? Are you going to perform some kind of indecent assault or lesbian scene in public? The audience is cheering. What are you trying to do?"

"Hmm? It seems... you're not very resistant?"

The girl, dressed as Ahri's sister, bent her knees slightly, parted his legs, and slowly lifted them up. She reached out a hand to lift his chin, laughing especially happily, "Anyway, we're both girls, let's give each other a kiss."

"We've only just met, how could he be such a jerk?" Lin An remained expressionless.

"But you seem to have a vaguely expectant look on your face, hmm?"

Her voice was light and flirtatious, and she moved closer to him, blowing a breath into Lin An's ear. Lin An looked at Xu Qinghuan behind him, covering his mouth and laughing until tears streamed down his face.

"..."

Lin An watched as she slowly approached him.

The audience below the stage cheered and jumped for joy, as if this was some kind of big-scale prank, as if in such a scene, if he resisted or showed anger, then he couldn't take a joke.

Lin An saw the burning passion in her eyes and was especially confused. Was this woman a bitch?

Or are you blind?

But it seemed there was no time to worry about that. Lin An stretched out a finger and pressed it against his lips. The corner of the girl's lips touched the corner of his lips. "You're being naughty... little kitty."

"...Are you kidding me?" He couldn't help but ask.

"A kiss won't hurt you, just give your sister a kiss, hehe." She muttered to herself. Lin An's expression was strange. After a second or two, just as she was about to kiss her, Lin An reached out and pressed her shoulders down.

"I'm a boy, are you from Shakou?"

This time his voice was normal, and the cheers and whistles from the audience stopped, leaving a moment of deathly silence.

At this moment, only Xiao Chacha and Su Yuejin's laughter could be heard from below the stage. The two of them were doubled over with laughter, laughing so hard they couldn't stop.

Lin An looked at the girl cosplaying Ahri across from him and his face turned green.

She slowly lowered her knee from between his legs. Lin An's hand was still on her shoulder, but he released it as if he had been electrocuted. "Sister, don't do anything crazy... Didn't you see me last time?"

"you you……"

"I have something to do, I have to go now."

After Lin An finished speaking, he turned and ran away as fast as he could. He couldn't quite accept so many eyes on him from below the stage. A few seconds later, a burst of laughter rang out from below the stage, as if the air itself had become extremely cheerful.

"..."

Lin An grabbed Su Yuejin's hand and ran out of the venue. Su Yuejin was still laughing, laughing all the way outside the venue, and still holding Lin An's shoulder as she laughed, "I can't take it anymore... hahahaha... Lin An... I can't take it anymore... hahahaha."

"...You just want me to get kissed by other girls, don't you?"

"That won't do." Su Yuejin suddenly became serious and stopped talking, then hummed softly twice, seemingly very happy. She was so happy, and then she leaned closer.

"Can I kiss you, sister?" she said, mimicking her gesture by extending a hand and gently lifting her chin.

"No."

Why?

"Because it's not allowed, it's not allowed. There's no reason why it's not allowed. For the next few days, I won't kiss you, Su Yuejin."

Su Yuejin froze, looking into his eyes, "Why?"

"Because... you need to get some rest?"

He said this, looking into her confused, bewildered, and aggrieved eyes, but he wouldn't give her an answer.

"Then, how many days will it take?"

"About a week."

"……don't want."

"Not good." Lin An simply said this, he took a step closer to Su Yuejin, Su Yuejin took a step back, and then he pressed her against the wall. Su Yuejin stared blankly at him.

"I've been feeling a bit confused lately because of someone, so please be a good girl and listen to me, okay?"

He was speaking very seriously, so even though she was reluctant, Su Yuejin obediently nodded.

------

P.S.: This is the only update today, with a total word count of 11000.

Chapter Ninety-Two: Have you suffered enough?

To Su Yuejin's surprise, Lin An looked at her with a strange expression.

That emotion puzzled Su Yuejin, just as it did in Lin An's eyes.

"Why are you so obedient?" he asked.

"Huh?" Su Yuejin was taken aback.

Lin An could only sigh helplessly. He gently placed his hand on Su Yuejin's shoulder, then his smile gradually faded. He took a deep breath and then focused all his attention on Su Yuejin's fair face.

"If you listen to everything I say, then are you Su Yuejin, or just a toy that only obeys?"

Su Yuejin was speechless, stunned.

Lin An's expression remained gentle as he softly murmured, "Have you forgotten? What you want is love, regardless of whether that person is me or not. What you want is not absolute obedience. If you only listen to the other person and only depend on them, what will you do if they abandon you one day?"

"Moreover, it's not good to just keep relying on and obeying."

Lin An extended two fingers and tapped her forehead in a deliberately childish manner. "Foolish Su Yuejin, you need to understand that you are you. You must be yourself first before you can be the person you are in front of the one you love. The more flustered and worried you appear, the more anxious you will be, whether you gain or lose something. Do you understand?"

"I think I understand a little bit... but I still can't understand it."

"Then you'll understand slowly."

"Oh." Su Yuejin puffed out her cheeks, seemingly a little dissatisfied. "I'm not a child anymore."

“I know.” He nodded gently.

"I will slowly learn these principles, and then I will make you like me," she said.

"If you can do it." Lin An shrugged, then sighed softly.

He withdrew his fingers and then took her hand in his. "When you're able to do that, you'll find that you don't need to love me at all."

"why?"

There's no why; you'll understand someday.

"What? This is all so confusing. I don't want to listen to it."

"Okay, okay, whatever you say. So, what else would you like to go shopping about next?"

"Hmm, let's just wander around a bit more. It doesn't seem like comic conventions are that fun. It's better if we just stay home and play games."

"We're on the same page! Let's shop around some more, then we'll go home and play games this afternoon."

"Okay, okay."

Su Yuejin was quite happy, then she suddenly remembered something, "You said you'd make me cola chicken wings last time."

"You sure know how to think about things. Wouldn't ordering a better takeout be tastier than what I cook?"

"But I just want to eat what you make."

"Okay, let's shop around some more. You can take me home to change my clothes, and then I'll go to your place."

Lin An nodded in agreement with Su Yuejin, and then they wandered around a few venues for a while. They saw quite a few interesting cosplays, which was the only fun Lin An had at the anime convention. He didn't want so much socializing. On the contrary, he had heard a lot about the inside story of the cosplay circle from Xu Qinghuan, so he wasn't very interested in this circle. But every circle has a few disgusting guys, which is normal.

It wasn't until 2 PM that the two decided to go back. However, when they were halfway through their shopping trip, Xiao Chacha joined them. Lin An didn't mind; it was fine with him.

So when they left, the three of them were together. Su Yuejin drove Lin An home first, but Lin An did not invite Su Yuejin to his house. He told Su Yuejin to wait for him in the car.

"Why won't you let me go up?" Su Yuejin pouted slightly, looking very aggrieved.

"Next time, next time." Lin An smiled dismissively, but Su Yuejin grabbed his arm. "I'm going. You just told me not to listen to everything you say."

"Not this time, I'll definitely take you next time. Besides, there's nothing fun at my house, it's very boring."

Lin An was held tightly by Su Yuejin, as if the only way to escape was...

He moved closer to her, looked into her dark, bright eyes, and then planted a kiss on her cheek, as if it were a password. Su Yuejin obediently let go of his hand and watched him get out of the car and go upstairs.

Xiao Chacha's eyes darted around, and suddenly she thought of something.
