Chapter 145 Part 2
“I’m calculating the importance of tomorrow’s match– –First place in the spring competition gets 300 points, second place 200 points. First place in the summer competition would automatically move on to the S series finals, second place gets 300 points and third place 200 points. That means if we beat CK to go to the summer finals, even in the worst scenario where we lose to YQCB and get 300 points from being in second place, with the points from the spring, we’ll have 500 points in total. Also, if CK defeats Huawei again, CK would be third place with 200 points, then we’ll have the same total accumulated points as CK. We’ll have to play a tiebreaker game to decide which team has the greatest point total for the year. Then, that means we’ll have one more chance to fight for the slot than simply playing the stepladder tournament. But if we lose tomorrow’s match, we can only hope that CK defeats YQCB to be first place and we can qualify for the S series world finals by having the highest amount of points in the year. Otherwise, we’ll have to do the stepladder round……”
Tong Yao, holding her milk glass, listened earnestly. She looked up and saw Little Fatty also had put down his mouse and looked at Lu Sicheng with a confused look on his face…… Tong Yao waved her hand: “That means we have to win tomorrow, right?”
Lu Sicheng: “I don’t like to hand over the opportunity that we can decide our own fate to the hands of other teams.”
Tong Yao: “Oh.” She sat down on her chair. Lu Sicheng asked: “Do you understand what I just said?”
Tong Yao honestly said: “No.”
Lu Sicheng: “……”
Tong Yao looked at the time after sitting down, it was already 10:30 pm. She decided not to play ranked games. She flipped through her notes and reviewed the videos of CK’s recent games. She studied the usual route Yang god takes to go to the jungle……
Lu Sicheng stretched his neck over to see what she was watching. Tong Yao’s eyes were fixed on the mini map on the lower right corner on the screen and her notebook was filled with notes such as “x minute x second, get wolf,” “x minute x second, get the four raptors”. Lu Sicheng slightly frowned and dropped the folder that he was reading down. He reached over to pinch Tong Yao’s chin and turned her face towards him: “What are you watching?”
“Replays of games.” Tong Yao’s eyeballs moved to the edges of her eye sockets to try to keep looking at the computer screen. She used her hand to pat Lu Sicheng’s hand: “Let go, I can’t see……”
Lu Sicheng released his hand and looked at Tong Yao who had already pasted her eyes to the computer screen again: “Is it that good?”
“It’s pretty good. This match was between CK and Red Arrow. Yang god dominated their jungle in this game. In other words, this was a match won in the jungle. So I want to see how Yang god played……”
“……”
Lu Sicheng raised his eyebrows.
Anytime Yang god appeared in a sentence more than once, he found it quite irritating to his ears. In addition, the way Tong Yao wholeheartedly praised Yang god, though unintentional, made him feel even more…… annoyed.
Before he realized what he had done, he had already reached over to shut off Tong Yao’s computer. Tong Yao was stunned to see her computer screen go dark before she realized what had happened. She hissed and turned to stare at the man next to her– –However, Lu Sicheng had already turned his head back to look at the folder like nothing had happened. He could feel her stare angrily at him, but he remained calm and didn’t look up. He reached over to touch her head: “Go back to your room and sleep early. I’ll be right over after I finish reading this.”
Tong Yao was surprised: “We have a match tomorrow and you’re still coming to my room to sleep?”
Lu Sicheng wrote and drew on the folder: “I can’t?”
Tong Yao moved her lips and stressed: “…………………..We have a match tomorrow. You said it yourself that you don’t like to hand over our fate to the hands of other teams……”
Lu Sicheng gave her a glance: “I won’t do anything tonight.”
Tong Yao thought about it then said: “Oh.” She sat back down to flip through her little notebook. Little Fatty, still with a confused look on his face, blinked and asked: “What does it mean that you won’t do anything tonight? Then what have you been doing usually?”
Old Cat lazily gave Little Fatty a look: “Those bashful things between adults.”
Little Fatty: “……”
An awkward silence lasted for five seconds.
Suddenly, Lu Sicheng’s tittering broke the silence. Tong Yao abruptly stood up from her chair, annoyingly used her notebook to slap on Lu Sicheng’s head, then she dashed upstairs with a red face and slammed the door shut with a loud thud– –The base was momentarily dead quiet. Everyone turned to look at Lu Sicheng. He calmly picked up Tong Yao’s half drunk milk glass and drank the rest of the milk in one gulp. Then he also stood up, went to the kitchen, washed the glass, put the glass on the rack, turned to all the other singles at the base, and raised the folder in his hand while saying: “I’ll go sleep. You guys all go to bed early.”
Afterwards, he simply swaggered off.
