Chapter 56 (4)
The match was still on.
Though the enemy team worked well as a team, each individual player’s skill was somewhat lacking compared to ZGDX, except for their mid who was comparable to the new comer Tong Yao. Since the enemy team lost the team fight early on, they didn’t have much of a chance to turn the tide around– —
ZGDX quickly won the second match.
They won today’s match with ease again for a 2-0 win.
Lu Sicheng thought back about the two matches, from beginning till end, Tong Yao had only spoken once with the word ‘tax’ to him– –There hadn’t been much communication from her, but she had no problem cooperating with her teammates. As a captain, he couldn’t find anything to pick on her performance during these two matches.
After they destroyed the enemy nexus, ZGDX players took off their earphones and went over to shake hands with the other team. Tong Yao walked straight over without looking back. From where Lu Sicheng was standing, he could only see the side of her face. Her quietness made him feel awkward, but he couldn’t tell how exactly it was awkward.
After shaking hands, the five players from the winning team walked to the front of the stage to bow to the audience.
Lu Sicheng seemed absent-minded during the entire time. After bowing, he was the first one to turn and walk back. As he was pondering how long Tong Yao could keep her silence, a sudden squeak came from behind. He subconsciously turned around– —
From the angle of the audience, what they saw was: After the five players from ZGDX bowed, they turned to walk back; Lu Sicheng was first, Tong Yao second, Little Fatty third, followed by Old Cat and Old K……Little Fatty turned to chat with Old Cat as they walked and accidentally stepped on the back of Tong Yao’s sandals. Tong Yao staggered and lost her balance, she was about to fall to the ground……
At that second, Lu Sicheng who was walking in front abruptly turned around as if he had a pair of eyes on his back. He stopped Tong Yao’s fall with his arms from behind and lifted her up onto his shoulder like she was a huge toy.
The air seemed freezed at that very second.
The person, who was hanging face down from Lu Sicheng’s shoulder with one bare foot, was dumbstruck.
Little Fatty, the culprit, was stupefied.
The entire audience was amazed.
It wasn’t until a shout broke the silence in the audience that Tong Yao lifted her head in a daze from Lu Sicheng’s shoulder. She saw numerous cell phones and cameras aimed at them and flashes lit up like stars in a dark night– —
Lu Sicheng said to Tong Yao: “How can you fall walking on a flat surface? Are you calcium deficient?”
Amid the man’s baritone voice, Tong Yao didn’t even have a chance to argue that it was his support who had stepped on her sandal.
……
[Originally, we thought we’re here to watch a competition. We didn’t find out until the end that we actually are here to watch a Korean drama……Tsk, tsk, tsk, at that moment, tsk, tsk, tsk, I’m even embarrassed to describe it. I only dreamt that kind of scene in my dreams when I was 14.
……I also want to trip accidentally, then be picked up by someone onto his shoulder.
My teenage heart thus wished.]
