Chapter 56 (2)
Little Fatty: “What’s going on here? He didn’t ask us for our WeChat earlier because he already has them, but today he didn’t give everyone of us a piece of cake!”
Old Cat: “It’s so obvious that you don’t even have to use your imagination.”
Tong Yao put the box aside and stood up. She was about to say something when Xiao Rui entered: “It’s time to go. Come out when you’re ready– –Damn, what’s going on here? Flowers and cake? You guys even threw a party when there’s only a ten minutes break? You guys are so full of yourselves.”
Little Fatty: “Our team’s mid and bot have infinite charm.”
Xiao Rui: “You?”
Little Fatty: “Except me.”
Xiao Rui turned to look at Tong Yao: “What’s going on?”
Before Tong Yao could answer, Little Fatty chimed in again: “Huawei’s jungler wants to be our son-in-law.”
Xiao Rui: “He’s after our Tong Yao? He killed our Tong Yao like crazy last match and still wants to chase after her? Wow, you professional players sure have a strange way of being romantic……”
All the players walked out of the rest area while poking fun at each other. Lu Sicheng was in the front, Tong Yao at the back. She didn’t have a chance to speak with Lu Sicheng during the entire 10 minutes break. Though it wasn’t anything out of ordinary, Tong Yao somehow just didn’t feel right– —
It just felt awkward.
After she sat down at her seat on stage, she glanced over the front row of the audience. Lu Sicheng’s blind date had already went back to her seat, without that big bouquet next to her feet. Li Hengshuo also was back at his seat.
The second match started.
Everyone was rather relaxed since they had won the first match quite easily. They didn’t even take much consideration about the other team during the ban and pick phase. They just picked the champions they felt like using. Tong Yao pondered for a moment then picked Diana– –This champion hadn’t showed up in any of the matches this season. Especially nowadays, every match seemed to have the same champions being picked over and over. It caused quite a commotion when Tong Yao picked a rarely seen champion……
The audience cheered loudly, though the players couldn’t hear it.
The commentator A: [Diana, Scorn of the Moon. Wow, I wasn’t expecting to see her today– –Hahahahaha, I think mids from other teams should really take note of this. The girl from ZGDX has the confidence to pick such a champion, why don’t you?]
The commentator B: [I’ve been watching ranked games on the Korean server. Smiling’s been playing Diana quite often lately, probably practicing.]
The commentator A: [Then she probably isn’t too good at it yet?]
The commentator B: [It’s true. Once in a while she shows some brilliant moves, but most of the time, her skill at playing is still rather elementary– –I hope today she can play it well enough to her satisfaction.]
Amid the teasing from the commentators, Lu Yue, who was sitting next to the drinking fountain backstage, sneezed a few times. He rolled his eyes and recalled the conversation back at base– —
Lu Yue: [Diana is really weak during the early game. Why does a champion like that even exist. They should just remove her. There’s no meaning for keeping her like this.]
Tong Yao: [Don’t make a fuss just because you don’t know how to play her. How can you kill anyone with that maneuver, you think you’re playing a Silver level match? You don’t even use the right item. Get away, watch how I play……]
Lu Yue: [I can’t see.]
Tong Yao: [Cheng Ge, come over and pull your brother’s eyes open……]
Those who were watching the match didn’t realize that all the bad moves were played by a guy who was trying to increase his champion pool. His real id was Lu. Those occasionally brilliant moves were played by the real owner of the account who would grab the mouse back from Lu Yue to teach him a few moves when she couldn’t stand how badly he was playing……
