Chapter 71: Driving to Chang'an
Chapter 71: Driving to Chang'an
"Esports hotel is great! It's been so long since I've played games," Lu Xiaoxue exclaimed.
"Indeed, games are more enjoyable to play on a computer. This trip will allow me to play games to my heart's content!" Mo Xunhuan clenched his wrist, his face full of anticipation.
"Can I watch movies on my computer?" Lu Qingqing asked excitedly.
"Sure, but you have to finish your homework first, and you can only watch for one hour at a time, and you have to sit far away from the screen," Mo Xunhuan instructed.
"Great, Daddy is so great!" Lu Qingqing cheered excitedly.
The car entered the highway and continued driving.
Highways are usually very crowded before New Year's Day, but fortunately they set off in a hurry, leaving overnight after the holiday, so the highways usually don't get congested until the next morning.
Time passed slowly, and Lu Qingqing and her daughter Lu Xiaoxue, who were sitting in the back seat, both fell asleep one after another, leaving only Mo Xunhuan in the passenger seat.
"Don't you get tired driving like this for so long?" Mo Xunhuan asked Su Qi, who was driving.
This is a highway, and it's nighttime. If someone is driving while fatigued and doesn't pay attention, it could be fatal.
"It's alright. I bought energy drinks and chewing gum beforehand, but I'm still a bit sleepy, unless..."
"Unless what?"
"Help me, then I won't be sleepy~" Su Qi winked at Mo Xunhuan and said meaningfully.
"You..." Mo Xunhuan was speechless. He could only say that this guy was really strong. He had done it so many times in the afternoon and was still thinking about it now.
Although I really want to complain, I have to say that this is indeed a good method, and it's no wonder that there are so many scenes in the movie where female characters help put out fires while driving.
"You're really bold!" Mo Xunhuan glanced back at the back of the car, seeing that the two were both fast asleep, before...
call……
With a relaxed breath, Su Qi, who was originally a little sleepy, suddenly woke up and stared straight ahead.
"How are you feeling? Are you more awake now?"
"Okay, I'm perfectly sober now!"
Mo Xunhuan: ………
From dusk until late at night, Su Qi drove the car the whole time, while Mo Xunhuan in the passenger seat, worried that she would fall asleep, also stayed awake.
I feed her water or snacks like chocolate every now and then to keep her energized.
"Actually, you don't need to worry. Just sleep when you feel sleepy. I'm very alert. When I was working, I often traveled between several cities, and staying up late was a regular occurrence for me." Su Qi could tell that he was sleepy, after all, it was already 12:30.
"It's alright, I'll stay with you. If you doze off, I can wake you up. Otherwise, everyone in this car will have to go to the Western Paradise with you." Mo Xunhuan said, yawning.
However, not long after saying this, Mo Xunhuan gradually fell asleep.
When he woke up again, the car had already exited the highway, and what lay before him was a bustling and brightly lit city at night.
As New Year's Day approaches, Chang'an remains brightly lit even at night, with many people strolling back and forth on the bustling streets.
"Hey, you're awake!"
"What time is it?" Mo Xunhuan rubbed his eyes, sat up and stretched.
"It's 2:30. We've arrived in Chang'an. We'll be at the e-sports hotel I booked in two more minutes," Su Qi said, smoking a cigarette.
Mo Xunhuan, smelling the smoke, finally realized what was happening and turned to look at her in confusion. "You smoke?"
"Otherwise, driving late at night, you just can't keep up without a cigarette or two." With that, Su Qi took a deep drag of her cigarette, opened the window, and threw the cigarette butt out.
"Hey, why did you throw it outside?"
"So what? Who can't see in the middle of the night?" Su Qi raised an eyebrow at him, looking flippant.
The car soon arrived near the e-sports hotel and stopped in a parking lot. Mo Xunhuan woke up the mother and daughter who were sleeping in the back of the car.
"Wake up! We've arrived in Chang'an!"
"What? We're already in Chang'an?" Lu Xiaoxue opened her eyes and sat up abruptly.
Lu Qingqing stretched and rubbed her sleepy eyes, then turned over and fell fast asleep again.
"Get up! Still sleeping? You can sleep all you want when we get to the hotel. Now get up and get dressed."
Mo Xunhuan opened the car door, dressed his daughter, and pulled her out.
Upon arriving at the e-sports hotel, the four of them were able to check in immediately, as Su Ran had booked rooms in advance.
Upon arriving upstairs, they opened a door to a room and immediately saw a fully equipped computer, instantly igniting their passion for esports.
"Wow, this hotel is amazing! The computer is so good, and the room is pretty nice too. It must be expensive to stay here for one night!" Lu Xiaoxue's eyes lit up when she saw the computer. She put down her luggage, immediately went forward, sat down in front of the computer, and turned it on.
"It's alright, this is a two-person gaming room, it's only around 300 a night. But there are also more upscale rooms, with two floors and a movie screen, which cost more than 500 a night."
Su Qi lay down by the bed. More than six hours of driving had left her physically and mentally exhausted, and all she wanted to do was lie down and get some sleep.
"It's so expensive! It must cost over two thousand for three days!" Lu Xiaoxue calculated the price and was immediately overwhelmed.
"It's okay, I'm paying anyway, you don't need to worry about how much it costs, I'll pay for it. Phew, finally I can get a good night's sleep." Lying on the bed, Su Qi stretched and squinted at Mo Xunhuan sitting next to her, her mind involuntarily conjuring up various images.
Once, when Su Qi went out with a good friend, they stayed at an e-sports hotel, and the friend brought a couple with her.
One night while playing a duo game, she heard strange noises coming from her opponent's mic. She later learned that while playing the game, her opponent was also...
Su Qi was incredibly envious at the time, and the first person she thought of was Mo Xunhuan. She fantasized that if she had been able to win him over, she could have experienced this extraordinary way of playing the game.
"This time... I can finally give it a try!"
As if possessing telepathic abilities, Mo Xunhuan suddenly turned around and stared into Su Qi's eyes.
Just by looking at her eyes, Mo Xunhuan could tell that she was thinking some bad thoughts again. After all, he had already made preparations before coming here, and Su Qi was definitely going to cause trouble.
"Wow, let me see! This computer has such high specs! A 5090 graphics card, and so many games on it!" Lu Xiaoxue's surprised voice came from the other end of the computer.
"That's great. You finally get a holiday, so you can have some fun and play with Su Qi," Mo Xunhuan said with a smile.
"Hmm, honey, what about you? Aren't you going to play?"
