Chapter 31 (4)
Ming god paused a bit, then he seemed to make up his mind. No longer looking at Lu Yue, he turned to look at Little Fatty instead and suddenly spoke, “Little Fatty, you got it all wrong. There’s more to it than what you’re seeing on the video. Ah Yue wouldn’t let me tell you about it all because he’s afraid the incident would affect you– –”
Lu Yue, who seemed to huddle up at the corner, abruptly stood up from the couch. “Yu Ming.”
Lu Sicheng lifted his foot to kick Lu Yue’s knee. Lu Yue screeched and fell back into the couch. Lu Sicheng stared at him as a warning, then turned to ask Ming god, “I knew it wasn’t as simple as that. You better tell us what exactly happened.”
……
The story began just as the summer season ended last year.
ZGDX had won the summer season championship and earned an invitation to play in the world finals. It was an occasion for celebration. After the celebration banquet, the team moved to KTV for karaoke.
Since the next day was a day off, everyone was drinking. Lu Yue had a bit too much and everyone sent Yu Ming, who didn’t drink at all, to take Lu Yue to the restroom to wash his face and sober up……
On their way back, they ran into a group from team JK– –This team was originally attached to CK as its B team. Later on, it moved up from the minor league to the professional major league. Since it was against the rules to have two teams of the same club listed under the major league, JK was sold to the son of a rich family, A. He spent big money to buy JK so he could play professionally.
A became the captain of JK. Though he played well enough, he was still far from
the professional level. Even though he had four other professional players to support him, the team was still being bombarded at competitions……In the end, the team was at the bottom of the group and had to play another low ranked team from the other group in a relegation match. The loser of said relegation match would drop back down to the minor league. JK ended up being said losing team– —
Instead of hating the team which defeated them at the relegation match, they blamed ZGDX, which was already guaranteed to move forward to the next round, for not letting JK win one match so they could avoid being placed at the bottom of the group.
“Damn it! If it wasn’t for those ZGDX bastards, we wouldn’t have been downgraded just by losing one match! Even if we lost the match between the second to last teams, we could still have had a chance to defeat second ranked junior league team to keep our place in the major league.”
“We might not be able to defeat a major league team, but taking down a junior team would be as easy as eating cake.”
“I just saw those guys from ZGDX. Looks like they’re celebrating winning the championship. They’re here, too.”
“Ha, now they’ve got the invitation, they’re so bloated with arrogance. Disgusting– –What do they have to gain from getting us downgraded? Why couldn’t they just go easy on us? A Ge spent so much money to buy the chance to play in the tournament and got downgraded just after one season. All the money has been thrown into the water……”
They were talking very loud inside their private room, almost drowning the singing from the next room……Lu Yue who was supported by Ming god suddenly stopped in front of their room when he overheard the conversation– —
People inside the room continued talking. A person who had been quiet up till now, the person referred to as A Ge by his teammates, smirked and spoke in a surly voice, “They think they’re going to the finals? In their dreams! We have to let them have a taste of what we’ve been through……”
As he spoke, the room grew quiet, even those who were singing had turned off the music.
Under the gaze of his JK teammates, A Ge took out his cell phone and dialed a number. After the call connected, he spoke in a particularly pleasant tone– —
“Go find a few more people to come outside the Caesar KTV. En, I’ll let you know when they come out……You don’t need to do anything, just waste their hands. Haha, right, right, right– –professional players– –they can still play, with their feet……Oh, remember, don’t touch the two good looking ones among them. They’re from the Lu family, it’ll be big trouble if you hurt them. Don’t worry about the others, do whatever you must. I’ll cover you if you get sued for damages. Hurry and come over, I’m afraid they’ll leave soon.”
The voice inside the room could be heard clearly out in the hallway.
