Chapter 459 – Team Member

Xiong YaoYue walked out of the steel cage and her second step turned into a hop. She gnashed her teeth and said her foot was number and asked me to support her.

Of course, how could your feet not be number after standing in spot for four hours? Do you think you’re a marble statue?

It couldn’t be helped as I supported the groaning Xiong YaoYue and slowly brought her near the basement steel door.

“It’s all because you had nothing better to do.” (TN: This is an idiom, if I literally translated it would mean you ate too much)

“But I’m not full at all.” Xiong YaoYue said, “I heard you can get a wife in China-North Korea border with a steamed bun. I’m in a similar state where I might marry any man who treats me to a good meal.”

“Hold it in, don’t marry. Ai Mi’s going to treat you to a meal when you head upstairs, abut all you have to do to repay her is to be her servant.”

In the pitch black basement, with only the small flashlight on the Swiss army knife to illuminate our way, the two of us did seem like victims.

Xiong YaoYue laughed, “Haha, you make it seem like I can get married immediately. You’re the only man near me right now, but you’re gay and won’t marry me.”

Girls seem to always joke around with each other about marriage. When I was in elementary school, I heard the two girls sitting in front of me call each other ‘husband’ and ‘wife’ (They weren’t lesbians, they were just showing intimacy). Xiong YaoYue was also having a intimate talk between besties with me.

I’ve already stated numerous times that I wasn’t gay, but Xiong YaoYue was already deeply mistaken. So I decided to see if I could use a roundabout way to tell her the truth.

“Ahem.” I cleared my throat, “Winnie, have you heard of bisexuals.”

“I’ve heard of it before.” Xiong YaoYue seemed shocked, “Aren’t bisexuals the ones who like both men and women and are known as universal adapters? Are you saying you’re a bisexual?”

Universal adapter sounds so vulgar, but to save the situation, I might as well go with it.

“That’s right.” I said seriously, “I’m a bisexual who likes both men and women. Make sure to stay wary around me or I might step out of bounds.”

“Ehhhhhh~~~~” Xiong YaoYue stretched out a sigh like she didn’t believe me, “But I heard male bisexuals are usually tops, but last time you prepared sexy underwear to wear, so you’re obviously a bottom.”

“That underwear was for someone else.” I couldn’t stop once I began to lie, “I’m clearly a top. If you compare me and Shen ShaoYi, which one of us is more like the bottom?”

Xiong YaoYue opened her mouth and came to a realization: “You do seem more like a top. Do you carry sexy underwear with you for Shen ShaoYi to wear?”

“But that doesn’t prove you’re bisexual!” Xiong YaoYue tilted her face up and took a closer look at me. My arm was underneath her armpits to support her, but her actions made my elbows accidentally touch… her bouncy breasts.

It’s a completely different style when compared to Gong CaiCai’s large pudding breasts.

Oh right, ‘large pudding’ is what Xiong YaoYue calls Gong CaiCai’s breasts after she teased her, I have never felt Gong CaiCai’s breasts.

“Tell me how you’re going to prove you’re bisexual.”

Xiong YaoYue kept pressuring me without noticing she was pressing her breasts against me.

Luckily, the lights were turned off in the basement, otherwise the bulge in my crotch would have been proof. Even though I had the idea of using the flashlight to shine my crotch, but I quickly dropped the idea because it was too dirty.

Seeing me speechless, Xiong YaoYue smiled and said: “As I expected, you were teasing me. Stop trying to turn yourself straight because you feel bad that you’re gay. If you’re straight then we can’t be sisters anymore.”

I was a bit surprised, “So you’re going to ignore me if I became straight?”

“Of course not. If you turned straight, then we would be brothers. I’ll act as your wingman for any girl who caught your eye.”

So that means you will never treat me as the opposite sex? For some reason that makes me feel bad.

After we came out from the basement, the French chef served Xiong YaoYue a sumptuous lunch. The starved Xiong YaoYue ate while shedding tears. She might even have offered to marry him if they spoke the same language.

After the meal, Ai Mi was watching power puff girls in room 101 of the VIP building. Xiong YaoYue did a military salute when she saw Ai Mi and reported:

“Miss Ai Mi, Winnie is back. Thanks for your hard work today on set, I will definitely cheer for you next time.”

“I already said you don’t need to speak to me with honorifics. But the manservant has always been impudent…” She pointed at me while I was trying to swipe some fruits and said: “You should learn more from Winnie.”

I threw the sparkling red grape I picked up into my mouth and thought in my mind: “You’re the one who’s acting impudent, I’ll have to punish you in the future by making you call me brother a hundred times every day.”

Xiong YaoYue sat next to Ai Mi and began watching TV with her while reporting the progress on the LOL team. I focused on eating grapes while listening in to their conversation.

Xiong YaoYue stated that she wasn’t even able to recruit one person out of the ten required people into the Golden Lightning team 1 and team 2.

I almost spat out the grape I was eating, “Why are you making a report if you didn’t recruit anyone?”

“I don’t have a choice.” Xiong YaoYue complained, “I already tried a lot of large internet cafes, I even added a lot of the national top rankers. A lot of the skilled players thought I was tricking them since my skills are pretty bad…”

“A middle school girl inviting players to a professional team is pretty hard to believe.” I analyzed, “First ignore the online players. The next time you see a skilled player at an internet cafe, just bring along one of Ai Mi’s bodyguards and then they will believe you.”

“That’s right.” Ai Mi clapped her hands together, “Let me borrow Peng TouSi and let’s see if anyone will still call me a liar.”

“That’s too troublesome.” Ai Mi kept her eyes on the TV while she said coldly, “Winnie, open the second drawer on the left side of the TV cabinet and take out what’s inside.”

Xiong YaoYue jumped up from the sofa and opened the drawer without any questions.

When she took a clear look inside, she trembled, her knees turned soft and she knelt down in front of the drawer.

Not only did she kneel down, she also pressed her forehead against the carpet and yelled out respectfully:

“Please bless me that I will always have enough of you in the future. Please accept my worship!”

I was curious, so I went to take a look.

What the hell, Xiong YaoYue wasn’t worshiping a god, but thick stacks of hundred dollar bills! Based on the thickness, there seemed to be at least 100 bills in a stack. I can’t believe Ai Mi just leaves cash lying around randomly, I can never understand the world of rich people.

Ai Mi said calmly, “Winnie, take one or two stacks. If anyone doesn’t believe you, just whack them on the face with the money.”

I wasn’t even sure how to respond, “Ai Mi, that’s so childish. What would happen if Winnie was mugged while carrying that much cash?”

“That’s right.” Xiong YaoYue added, “Then all the money would be lost.”

She completely didn’t think of the possibility that she could be hurt.

Ai Mi was focused on the new character ‘Bullet’ who just appeared and answered mindlessly: “Then you can let Peng TouSi accompany her.”

“If Peng TouSi is with her, then what’s the point of giving Winnie cash?”

The cartoon finally reached the end of the episode where Bullet did not join the Powerpuff Girls because he had to protect the other animals in the forest. Ai Mi sighed regretfully and said, “I thought they would get more members…”

Ai Mi only had temporary enthusiasm for everything she did and she wasn’t that enthusiastic about the LOL team anymore, but she still told Xiong YaoYue to pay attention for potential members. The team space was still under construction on the second floor, and once everything was in place, Ai Mi still had to play one or two games as the boss.

After a short commercial break, the four episode back to back of the Powerpuff Girls continued. Ai Mi got Xiong YaoYue to watch with her. I was bored and saw Obama sitting in a corner sullenly with the cowbell around his neck, so I decided to take him for a walk so he can lose weight faster.

Obama didn’t have any previous records of injuring people, so I didn’t use a leash. I brought him out of the building and we walked halfway around the VIP building while following the perimeter wall.

I was planning on heading to the fountain when I suddenly found, to my horror, a man who looked like a college student, squatting inside the bushes by the wall, staring intently at me.

My first reaction was that he was taking a shit. The proof was Obama barked at him, I mean we all know dogs eat that and I have no idea if Obama went crazy due to hunger.

But on a closer look, the college student was still wearing his pants. We met eyes for a while, then he asked profoundly:

“I heard that you guys are organizing a professional LOL team and you’re still recruiting.”
