Chapter 1806: Young Generation Side Story (58): Panic, Escape, Flirtation Right Beneath the Eyes

In that instant, Qi Zhiyi felt as if her breath and heartbeat were tightly gripped by someone, her breathing heavy and tense, not daring to breathe too loudly, and she could sense the pounding of her heart in her chest.

Because of his words, her whole body underwent a subtle change.

Her whole body was flushed, her brain lacked oxygen, and she felt her entire being starting to lose weight.

At that moment, the intelligent system alerted her that her heart rate was too fast.

Duan Yiyang held her hand, removed her wristband, lightly clasping her hand with a feeling of indescribable tingling spreading throughout her body instantly.

At this point, the system alert had disconnected, but Qi Zhiyi felt as though her consciousness and body also seemed to have disconnected.

She didn’t even know what she was thinking, her mind blank, with only the deafening sound of her heartbeat roaring.

She was terrified that Duan Yiyang would hear it, focusing all her attention on their still clasped hands.

Until Duan Yiyang helped her put back her wristband and turned to set up the equipment, Qi Zhiyi’s consciousness suddenly returned to her.

His warmth still lingered on her hand, hanging down at her sides, and she felt a scorching sensation clinging to her clothing.

"What else would you like to experience?" Duan Yiyang asked with a smile, looking at her.

"I don’t want to experience anything more, my brother is outside, he might be looking for me now." Qi Zhiyi couldn’t dare stay here any longer, with even her body temperature and heartbeat being publicly exposed; if she stayed any longer, she feared she might go mad.

"Didn’t you tell your brother not to bother you?"

"..."

When Qi Zhiyi was making the call, Duan Yiyang didn’t hear what the other person said, but he did hear Qi Zhiyi’s words clearly.

"How about going to my office for a while, wait for your brother to call you, then I’ll take you out," Duan Yiyang suggested.

"No need, you surely have work to do, I’ll leave first."

Qi Zhiyi nearly fled in panic, but luckily, she encountered a staff member who thought she was a visitor who had lost her way, leading her into the hall where she fortunately found Qi Lie’s location.

Qi Lie was still immersed in gaming at the time and didn’t notice his sister’s return. When he finished the game, he didn’t realize anything was amiss and even said:

"Didn’t I tell you to sit over at the café? Why did you come back over here?"

"There’s nothing much to do, so I came back; let’s go."

"Wait a bit longer, why don’t you sit nearby while I play another game."

"..."

Qi Lie was so focused on the game that he couldn’t notice his sister’s anomalies, much less know that under his nose, she had been flirted to the point of blushing.

**

Watching her run away, Duan Yiyang chuckled, fiddling with the wristband in his hand, wearing it himself; the metallic wristband seemingly retaining the warmth from her wrist, and at this moment, the system alerted:

[High Body Temperature]

The responsible person monitoring the system was left somewhat dumbfounded.

When he saw the girl leaving the crowd with Duan Yiyang, he was stunned; how did the two end up leaving?

Watching Duan Yiyang take her to the test room, where there was no surveillance, he couldn’t see inside, so he could only switch between the few surveillance cameras at the door.

Then the young woman emerged with a flushed face and ran away!

She fled swiftly, as if someone was chasing her.

Duan Yiyang emerged a few minutes later, full of smiles, looking satisfied.

What exactly happened in there?

Did Mr. Xiaoduan do something to her inside the room?

The responsible person wanted to find the young woman but she had already blended into the crowd, and with so many people in the venue, once you lose sight of someone in the crowd, it’s impossible to find them again.

Duan Yiyang’s gossip was rare, but even knowing these details, he wouldn’t dare to disclose his superior’s privacy; that would be the end of him, so he could only keep it to himself.

Qi Lie didn’t know what his sister went through, Qi Zhiyi kept urging him to leave, which even annoyed him slightly.

Qi Zhiyi was afraid Duan Yiyang would suddenly appear and talk to her, in front of her brother, then that would be a complete disaster.

"I knew you weren’t interested in this stuff, shouldn’t have brought you along, I’m not done having fun." Qi Lie frowned, feeling his sister was a killjoy, "Whenever we find a good immersive game, we should set one up at home."

"I heard Duan Family’s immersive games are quite good, we should try them next time."

"I heard that too, but today, their section was too crowded, I didn’t even manage to squeeze in."

Qi Lie frowned, "Duan Family?"

If his dad knew he was gaming, he’d be scolded; going to Duan’s territory to experience games could even break his legs.

Qi Zhiyi listened, her heart racing.

Qi Lie criticized Duan’s stuff, saying, "... How long have they been doing this, there’s nothing fun in it, their family just excels at promotion, they used to do news media, probably their stuff is hyped beyond measure, it’s nothing impressive."

"That’s true, Duan’s stuff is probably just well-promoted." Some friends who know the Qi-Duan family feud chimed in.

One person ended up watching Duan’s promotional ads.

Got tempted.

Couldn’t control himself, took action.

That afternoon, he went to the Exhibition Center personally to experience Duan’s section.

To avoid the crowd, he deliberately chose to go in at the start of the afternoon when the hall just opened, avoiding peak hours, not encountering the morning crowd, but then bumped right into Duan Yiyang.

Their eyes met...

The atmosphere became extremely awkward.
