Chapter 173
That was right. Jiang Sheshe was in love.
Of course, the person she was dating was not Wei Xuan.
After Jiang Sheshe finished watching Debut! Boy Group, she quickly lost interest in male idols. Instead, she became obsessed with gaming.
And, very fashionably, she even started an online romance.
According to Jiang Sheshe, her online boyfriend had an incredibly deep, magnetic, heart-melting voice-the kind that could get your ears pregnant after one listen.
Ning Xi thought about Xie Lanchen’s voice and decided Jiang Sheshe was definitely exaggerating.
Her Xiao Xie was the one with the truly heart-melting voice!
Still, Ning Xi was genuinely happy for Jiang Sheshe now that she was dating someone.
However, it didn’t take long for Ning Xi to experience the downside of Jiang Sheshe being in a relationship.
Jiang Sheshe: “I broke up.”
Ning Xi: “Huh? Didn’t you two only get together three days ago?”
Jiang Sheshe: “Listen, let me tell you…”
Ning Xi: “That really is a little too much! How could he do that…”
An hour later.
Jiang Sheshe: “We’re back together [shy]”
Ning Xi: “Heh.”
And so it went, breaking up and getting back together countless times.
Until the day The Chess Game premiered.
Early that morning, Jiang Sheshe sent another message.
Jiang Sheshe: “You there?”
Ning Xi: “Unless something unexpected happens, I’ll be here for the next sixty years.”
Jiang Sheshe: “I broke up this morning.”
Ning Xi: “Oh, how many stars?”
Jiang Sheshe: “?”
Ning Xi: “?”
Jiang Sheshe: “I broke up with my boyfriend last night! Broke up as in broke up!!! Not ranked up!!!”
Ning Xi went straight into the usual routine. “Ohhh, why did you break up?”
Jiang Sheshe: “Listen, I’m telling you…”
Ning Xi: “Sigh, forget it. The next one will behave better. Come on, big sis will carry you in ranked!”
Jiang Sheshe: “Wait, let me get on the big one first.”
Ning Xi was shocked. “You actually have a main account in Honor of Kings?”
Jiang Sheshe: “…I meant the big one. In the bathroom.”
But this time, after Ning Xi took Jiang Sheshe on two glorious tours through King’s Canyon, Jiang Sheshe still hadn’t recovered.
Jiang Sheshe: “I don’t want to be alone. I’ll come find you. The Chess Game premieres today anyway, so we can watch the first episode together later.”
Ning Xi, who was currently lying comfortably in Xie Lanchen’s arms and playing games: ?
But she wasn’t alone right now!
Still, on the first day of The Chess Game’s premiere, having one more person to watch with would make things livelier, right?
Ning Xi readily sent Jiang Sheshe the address of Xie Lanchen’s villa.
The reason they had come here today was because this villa had a dedicated media room.
Though it was called a media room, it was practically the size of a cinema screening hall.
On top of that, it had the rights to every movie-even films currently showing in theaters.
Jiang Sheshe had a vague idea that Xie Lanchen was rich, but after seeing the media room, she still couldn’t help clicking her tongue in awe.
“Such taste! He actually built a media room this huge at home!!!”
And what showed even more taste was that she was the first friend Ning Xi had invited over!!!
The concubine bestie had successfully risen to become the rightful eldest bestie!
Until-
A sound came from the villa’s front door.
Jiang Sheshe looked at the uninvited Luo Ze. “Who are you?”
Luo Ze said, “I was just about to ask who you are.”
Qin Se, who was about to knock on the door: “…You’re all already here? Am I late?”
Wen Lu hurried over with bags big and small. “Not late, not late! It’s not even lunchtime yet!”
Jiang Sheshe looked at the crowd of people. “…”
Fine. Her promotion to rightful eldest bestie had failed!
But with such a big group gathered together, she completely forgot the pain of heartbreak.
“It’s premiering, it’s premiering! Come watch!”
Ning Xi had been watching the streaming platform the whole time, and the moment The Chess Game went live, she called out.
“Coming!”
The whole group marched grandly into the media room.
The villa was filled with endless laughter and chatter.
And this was merely the most ordinary day of the lives awaiting them.
Because the road ahead for these young people was bright, and flowers bloomed everywhere.

The extras will come to a temporary stop here. Everything that needed to be explained has basically been covered.
I tend to write the scenes outside the variety show in a very plain way, so I didn’t put them in the main story and slow down the pacing.
If inspiration strikes in the future, I may post another chapter or two.
For now, I’ll say goodbye to everyone here.
Thank you all for keeping me company during this time!
