Chapter 106 (2)
Little Fatty cleared his throat– —
The two who were now in the middle of tugging each other looked up at Little Fatty in unison. Little Fatty switched the bowl to the other hand and forced himself to suppress the urge to throw it like a grenade at the two. He thought for a moment then asked: “……………..How long have you two been like this?”
“It has been for some time now.” Lu Sicheng flatly answered.
Oh, it’s been that way for some time now.
……To hell with it, Little Fatty thought!
“……You’ve covered it well. No one has noticed it. Shit. Yesterday, Xiao Rui even let his imagination run wild with Tong Yao and Dubhe?” Little Fatty asked again: “Who committed the crime first to break the pure teammate friendship?”
“Me.” Lu Sicheng answered without any hesitation: “I threatened her that if she didn’t go along with me, I would throw away her cat……”
Tong Yao frowned and slapped the back of Lu Sicheng’s hand. Lu Sicheng didn’t resist, but moved his hand on the waist to her shoulder. He pulled her into his arms, patted her head and quite proudly said: “Then she just went along with me without a hitch.”
Little Fatty: “……”
The bullet comments flying in Little Fatty’s head all changed into [Damn, is that how it works?]
Lu Sicheng had been acting quite unperturbed, as if calmly saying “Oh, you happened to find out, what a coincidence.” Faced with Lu Sicheng’s frankness, Little Fatty was frustrated that he couldn’t really speak all the things he wanted to say– —
Five minutes later, the three of them found some empty seats to sit down. Tong Yao sat to the right side of Lu Sicheng and buried her head in her cell phone. It looked like she was embarrassed to face Little Fatty because she “accidentally caught their captain.”
Lu Sicheng sat in the middle and kindly reminded Little Fatty: “Your noodles are getting soggy.”
Little Fatty sat at the leftmost seat and opened his noodle bowl to take a bite. Then he happened to recall the scene he had seen earlier when Tong Yao stood on her toes, clutched their captain’s clothes to let him bend over to kiss him. The seafood instant noodles instantly lost its flavor, the only thing Little Fatty could taste was the bitterness of being a single– —
“It’s not right, you two.” Little Fatty put down his noodles and said hurtfully: “There’s only one girl in the whole team. Everyone cherishes her, protects her and treats her like a treasure. You, as our captain, took her from behind our backs……”
Lu Sicheng: “So, I should let you guys get her first?”
Little Fatty: “……”
Lu Sicheng: “I’m captain, not Lei Feng.”[1]
Tong Yao: “……”
Little Fatty felt what Lu Sicheng said seemed to make some sense especially when he said it so self-righteously. He turned then to the team mid who seemed to have a more guilty conscience: “And you, Tong Yao, you too. Didn’t you say you wanted to be a good professional player and wouldn’t fall in love with professional players since they’re all jerks? You just slapped your own face like this– –”
Tong Yao lowered her head, her chin almost disappeared into the collar of her shirt, then said in a small voice: “Captain isn’t Jian Yang. He doesn’t mess around, nor cheat. All he does is play ranked and watch competition videos. The other day, I sneezed next to him, he doesn’t even smoke anymore……”
Tong Yao’s voice was getting lower and lower and her head bent further and further downwards. On the other hand, the smile on Lu Sicheng’s mouth became more and more visible. He reached out to pat Tong Yao’s head with a complacent expression on his face……It was probably the same expression he had when he replaced Pope, won the Korean regional championship and received the trophy with his own hands.
Little Fatty felt the smell of the noodles in front of him had become even more unpleasant.
