Then Do You Like Me?

On the day she returned to Jiangcheng, Wu Jin went to the hospital to see Grandma. She opened the door and found Rong Qiao there too, but only glanced at her without saying anything.

Rong Qiao wanted to chat with Wu Jin, but after she took the initiative to say a few things, she found Wu Jin's responses lukewarm and said no more.

She sighed. Compared with her, her good girl probably wanted to talk to the old lady more.

After chatting with Grandma for a while, Wu Jin returned to the club. Although she had traveled out of town for the competition, she had still attended her online classes on time every day and hadn't fallen behind in her studies.

After all, Wu Jin had only one month left before the college entrance exam.

She had spent the morning on a plane and gone to the hospital again in the afternoon, so she wasn't supposed to have class today. But her tutor, Luo Li, offered to come teach her that evening.

Shi Mu and Brother Qian thought it was fine when they heard. With the college entrance exam so close, she couldn't afford to slack off too much.

Luo Li breathed a sigh of relief when she got their answer. She hadn't seen Shi Mu in ages and had only been able to watch his competition livestreams. Whenever the camera swept across his face, she found herself blushing.

That's the man I have my eye on!

So handsome!

She tossed her phone onto the bed and immediately began choosing an outfit and putting on makeup, making herself look beautiful.

When Clear opened the door, he saw a woman dressed in a mature, elegant style. Every strand of hair looked meticulously groomed, and her perfume smelled of freesia.

Clear knew a thing or two about looking good and could tell at a glance that the tutor had put effort into dressing up. He raised an eyebrow and stepped aside to let Luo Li in.

As soon as she entered the villa, Luo Li's gaze roamed constantly, searching for a certain someone. Only when Brother Qian led her to the lounge did she discover Shi Mu inside.

Wu Jin was holding a chemistry workbook, and Shi Mu sat beside her. Their heads were together as he explained the problems, and they were practically glued to each other.

Only when Brother Qian announced that the tutor was here did the two look up. Shi Mu stood and nodded to Luo Li, then turned to Wu Jin with a smile.

"I'll go warm up some milk for you. Pay attention in class."

"Oh."

Luo Li's gaze shifted between the two, and she sensed a subtle atmosphere. But work came first; everything else had to wait.

She gently explained each minor point and checked the homework she had assigned Wu Jin in each subject. She stayed focused on the lesson the whole time, except when Shi Mu brought them milk and water and she couldn't resist sneaking a glance at him.

Watching Wu Jin identify the key points of the questions and analyze them, she could hardly conceal her admiration. Wu Jin had learned quickly in such a short time; it was hard not to envy her ability to learn.

They always took a fifteen-minute break halfway through tutoring. Seeing that the girl was still absorbed in the questions, Luo Li felt something she couldn't quite put into words. She really wanted to ask whether there was anything between her and Shi Mu.

Sensing Luo Li's gaze, Wu Jin raised her aloof little face and said evenly, "Teacher, the bathroom is just around the corner to the left."

"Huh? Oh, no, I don't need the bathroom."

Luo Li waved a hand awkwardly, thinking, I don't want to do that. I want to do a man!!

Seeing that she had misunderstood what Luo Li wanted, Wu Jin lowered her head to look at the questions again.

As the seconds ticked by, Luo Li felt as if ants were crawling through her heart. She was anxious but didn't know how to bring it up. After a long while, she chose her words carefully and spoke.

"Xiao Jin, does your captain like you?"

She was a little nervous. Her hand clenched unconsciously, mangling a tissue, and uncertainty flickered in her eyes.

Wu Jin's eyes were deep, and even without trying, she gave off a chilly air that others could feel.

Those eyes met Luo Li's, making her heart tremble.

Why is this girl's aura so powerful...

"Yes."

Wu Jin's voice was cool and clear, leaving no room for doubt.

A bright mirror was crushed beneath the ice.

Luo Li froze for only a second before letting out a breath. It was just as she had guessed; this had only confirmed it.

Wu Jin: (｡-_-｡)

Of course the captain likes me. Otherwise, how would everyone get along so harmoniously? And she was certain Shi Mu liked the other members of GOD just as much.

What Luo Li had said was simply pointless.

Unaware of this, Luo Li was briefly caught up in the heartbreak of unrequited love.

It was rare for her to take a fancy to someone, only for him to go and fall for someone else just like that. And to top it off, the person her crush liked was so talented and beautiful that she couldn't find a single fault with her.

Alas, just as I arrived, spring had already come for him...

Before leaving, Luo Li took a long look at Shi Mu, then sighed and strode out of the villa with firm steps.

I'm definitely not dressing up like this next time!

It's a waste of time and a hassle.

Shi Mu, who had no idea what was going on, watched Luo Li leave with a polite smile before closing the door.

"She likes you."

A quiet voice floated over from behind him, giving Shi Mu such a fright that he almost jumped. He touched his little heart and turned to see Wu Jin eating potato chips.

Crunch, crunch.

Shi Mu tilted his head and smiled. "How can you tell?"

Wu Jin gave him a casual glance. "I could see it."

When someone liked another person, the aura they gave off was very different. It was easy to notice.

More importantly, she had met Luo Li only a few times, and Luo Li mentioned Shi Mu every time. It couldn't have been more obvious.

"What about you?"

Shi Mu stepped forward and lowered his head, bringing himself infinitely closer to Wu Jin until he stopped where they could feel each other's breath.

Wu Jin looked calmly at the man in front of her and parted her red lips. "What about me?"

Feeling Wu Jin's breath envelop him, Shi Mu's ears instantly turned red at the tips. He gave a low chuckle and took a step back, putting some distance between them.

"You're beautiful."

"Mm-hmm."

Watching Wu Jin's slender figure from behind, Shi Mu raised a hand and rubbed his temple.

When it came to Wu Jin, even a casual remark from her could rout him completely...

And to top it off, she was a difficult one to win over.

What was he supposed to do with himself?

Wantonly posted the travel photos he had taken in Pengcheng on social media. A huge wave of fans began searching the pictures for their own kids, and before long, the post had more than ten thousand likes and comments.

"Teacher Fatty's photography is as reassuring as ever~"

"Baby Clear, stop grinning with your teeth out. The first signs are already showing!"

"Wait, wait, wait, are those Jin and God Mu from behind in the fifth photo?!"

"wokwok, food's here! Leopard and kitty are such a perfect match!! Someone, grant them a marriage!"

"Huh, why isn't our baby Sun there? I'm shattered..."

To prevent people from saying the team was isolating a player, Sun promptly posted a few photos of himself eating with his parents to show that he had gone home to visit. Only then were the fans reassured.

The funniest part was that Clear also posted a set of photos, with a picture of him and Wu Jin together in the middle. The caption read: Who is more beautiful, my little sister or I?

The fans could tell he was competing, but they weren't about to indulge him.

"Clear, can we not force the comparison? You're not in the same league, so don't force yourself in."

"Nine photos, eight handsome shots of yourself and one with Jin. Baby, it seems you don't even know how to make a comparison..."

"You're both beautiful, all right? Kid, can you go to bed early?"

"How can you treat my husband like this? Hubby, of course you're the most beautiful! Even if the angles in your selfies are painful to look at, and you were as happy as a monkey flying a kite."

"Even you didn't spare him, netizen."

Still, the Jin-Clear CP fans kept picking up their bits of sugar. People getting fed didn't complain that the cook was low...

GOD had one match left, a battle for third place. Wu Jin didn't go to the venue because she had to prepare for the college entrance exam, so she took the opportunity to make up some of her required livestreaming hours.

Before leaving, Brother Qian gave her reminder after reminder. He only regretted not having learned a cloning technique, so he could stay at the club and keep an eye on Wu Jin without worrying.

Even though security in the villa complex was already extremely thorough.

After finishing her class and homework, Wu Jin sat down at her computer. For once, the villa felt so empty, though thankfully Qiuqiu was there to keep her company.

"Woof, woof!"

Qiuqiu wagged its tail and whined as it rubbed against Wu Jin's calves, then curled up around her feet.

She started her livestream and clicked into the game interface without saying a word.

The fans were all stunned when the notification "GOD-Jin, whom you follow, is livestreaming" suddenly popped up, then immediately clicked in.
