Yu Sui tried his best to restrain himself and warned himself not to ruin the care and preparation hed been doing these past few days on a moment of impulse.
Yu Sui leaned against the balcony railing with both hands. Dropping an indirect hint, he said, And... Shi Luo, Im not the kind of straight man who doesnt know when Im being made the subject of some scheme.
Being a veteran in this industry, the number of times people have attempted to seduce or entice Yu Sui wasnt exactly few.
Back then, Yu Sui rushed to the top of the industry as soon as he made his debut, not to mention internet celebrity anchors, he even normally ran into small time entertainment celebrities. The entertainment circle was shallow.
There was no lack of minor celebrities who relied on this somewhat good looks to chat and flirt with a star player to either rub off on their popularity or to make a quick buck. Since entering the industry, Yu Sui has been affixed with the dazzling rich label. He had the face and the reputation.
Naturally, there were quite a lot of people who saw him as a target for easy profit.
Expressly confessed to, secretly seduce, Yu Sui had seen it all from when he was in his teens to now.
It wasnt that Yu Sui had absolutely no clue about Shi Luos little occasional schemes.
Yu Sui never thought of those as scheming.
When people he didnt like schemed, those were scheming.
When the person he liked schemed, that was called acting spoiled.
Even if this spoiled act was a tad bit intense, consequently earning him stomach trouble and landing him in the hospital for an overnight stay.
But Yu Sui himself was a willing party in all this.
Shi Luo hadnt yet recovered from when Yu Sui said, After I went to Germany, I only had a stomach problem once. He looked at Yu Sui and said guardedly, You... dont you think Im being unreasonable?
The wind on the terrace was a bit strong, and Yu Sui held down the team uniform jacket he had on. He shook his head. I told you. Ive already accepted this.
Shi Luos lips moved.
He wanted to ask Yu Sui whether hed let himself fall for anyones repeated disaster-courting traps or if hed only do so for Shi Luos disaster-courting traps.
But just now, telling Yu Sui that hed deliberately thrown away his life in order to tell him the real situation had already exhausted up all his courage for the day.
All the replies hed gotten from Yu Sui so far have been so gentle. He said that he had fallen ill after knowing that Evil was Shi Luo himself and he said that he had been distressed.
Yu Sui hardly ever lies. Shi Luo didnt want to hear something similar to I didnt recognize you at all that could pierce his heart, nor did he want to destroy the rare tenderness that was between him and Yu Sui at this moment.
Shi Luo lit a cigarette. This was enough.
If Shi Luo didnt ask, there was nothing to regret. This was answer hed finally gotten.
Not long after the two returned to the training room from the terrace, Old Qiao called everyone to the conference room to start the game review. The contents of their match against Sacred Sword could truly make one feel unwell. Fortunately, Zhou Huo was very good at maneuvering everyones emotions.
In the middle of the review, he used the projector to show them the comments posted on Frees official Weibo. The comments under Zhou Huos impassioned post insulting Sacred Sword had already surpassed 10,000 comments. From beginning to end, the fans all insulted Sacred Sword.
After reading the first 100 top comments, they resumed the review.
Everyone dug into dinner as they did the game review. It was ten o clock in the evening by the time they finished. Old Qiao said, Ill compile all the things you need to pay attention to and send them to you separately later. There are also things you need to personally pay attention to.
Remember to take a look at it.
Zhou Huo sleepily stayed with them til the end of the review. Seeing that it was finally done, he hurriedly told them, Ok. Tomorrow, were flying to Chongqing. Well wrap up things here for today.
Go and hurry to sleep.
You dont really need to sleep if youre not tired. Old Qiao refuted. You can start a live broadcast or whatever.
Without waiting for Zhou Huo to speak, Puppy said helplessly, I really cant sleep right now. If you force me to go to bed, Im just gonna play on my phone. Its not as though we can change our biological clock in just a single day, right?
All right... Zhou Huo said helplessly, Just dont stay up too late. Lets agree now. When youre called tomorrow to wake up, dont complain or laze around in bed, okay?
None of them returned to the dormitory. They all went to the training room.
After their one-to-one match with Sacred Sword today, an alarm sounded in everyones hearts. They would joke around but they stifled a sigh in their hearts. None of them were willing to delay their training time too much.
Come on, come on. Agreed. Lets practice our cooperation. After entering the training room, Chen Huo reluctantly said, Shi Shen&#k2026;I know you dont like teaming up with me.
As it happens, I also dont like teaming up with anyone who isnt a medic but during todays practice match we were practically coming apart. Sigh, lets go&#k2026;
Normally, Shi Luo also pairs up with a medic. Naturally, he wasnt willing either but pairing up would indeed be the best way to practice their cooperation. Frowning, he said unhappily, Add me.
Puppy looked at Yu Sui We dont need to practice our cooperation, right? Theres nothing for us to practice. I will go play some matches by myself. You...youll do a live broadcast?
Yu Sui shook his head. Ive gotten enough hours this month already. Ill play some matches.
Puppy nodded and went to queue up. Yu Sui turned on the game client, logged in to the game, and started queuing up as well.
Yu Sui sometimes suspected that he must be some sort of jinx.
Whatever it was, as long as it was something bad and he mentioned it, it would basically happen for certain.
That afternoon on the terrace, hed mentioned that hed been the subject of others scheming before and that evening it was like he had summoned it.
Actually, at first, there was nothing the matter. Yu Sui quietly leveled up on the national server.
He used his main account and when his passersby teammates see him, they would bluster loudly for a while, or theyll be super excited or they would confess to being a fan; basically, how they treat most every professional player. Yu Sui was accustomed to it.
Under normal circumstances, he wouldnt reply; only occasionally, when he was in a good mood would he type a few words. Coincidentally, today, Yu Sui was in a very good mood.
Actually, what Shi Luo said that afternoon on the terrace pricked his heart a bit but for Yu Sui, who perpetually walked on mountains of swords and seas of flames as though he were walking on even ground, he was able to easily accept this.
Yu Sui actually didnt care that she tried to piggyback off on his popularity. He was long used to that. He was a bit angry right now though was because he was worried that a certain someone in the training room was now upset.
And judging by Chen Huos anguished wailing and the exceptionally heavy clacking of a certain someones keyboard, that certain someone truly was upset.
Yu Sui ground his teeth lightly. He had finally made a little progress with Shi Luo today. He wasnt about to let some nobody interfere with that.
Yu Sui started his own live broadcast.
If you wanted to reduce the popularity of the other anchors live broadcast, wasnt the best way to open one yourself to snatch it all back?
Yu Sui opened his in-game friend interface where all his friends status were displayed. Shi Luo had just finished his team-up with Chen Huo.
Yu Sui immediately invited Shi Luo to team up.
Yu Sui sent a message to Shi Luo through the friend interface.
In his live broadcast, in order purely to let others see, he typed
[Whisper]: [Playing single row is boring. Can you team up with me for a while? ]
The fans frantically flooded the live broadcasts barrage. Everyone jeered. Sharp-eyed fans grabbed onto Yu Suis Playing single row is boring and they began to mock and ridicule the rival broadcasting platforms anchor for her self-directed performance.
[Aiyo, Yu Shen himself said playing single row is boring.
[(_)Of course its boring. How can pro-players play when theyre matched up to mere entertainment anchors? They wouldnt be able to perform to their best at all.]
[Its still more interesting to watch them pair up with teammates.]
[Ha ha ha ha ha, the popularity of a certain anchors live broadcast suddenly dropped by 2 million.
[Its so disgusting. Just now that anchor even opened her webcam to show that she added Yu Shen on WeChat. She says she wants apologize to Yu Shen. The faker.
*throws up*]
[She just wants to brag that she knows Yu Shens WeChat. Sigh.]
[I dont know which executive gave her that WeChat account. Although a lot of industry insiders know Whispers WeChat account, can you please respect the pro-players privacy?
[Okay, stop giving publicity for the enemy live broadcasting platform. Calling Shi Shen.]
[Calling Evil+1]
[Calling Evil+2]
[Calling Evil+757. Whats wrong? Wheres Shi Shen? Why isnt he replying?
Yu Sui also wanted to know. Yu Sui tilted his head and glanced at him. Shi Luo was obviously not in the middle of a game or doing anything else. He was just staring at his computer screen with a blank expression.
Yu Sui continued typing.
[Whisper]: [Can you? ]
[Whisper]: [you gonna sleep already? ]
[Whisper]: [Shi Luo? ]
Shi Luo still didnt reply.
Yu Sui took in a light breath. Was he really angry now?
Then, it seemed that simply doing a live broadcast was not enough to coax him.
Yu Sui was about to get up when his phone buzzed.
Yu Sui clicked to open
[Evil]: [Keep typing...]
[Evil]: [...Be a bit gentler. ]
The corners of Yu Suis lips couldnt help but tick up. He tried his best to keep from laughing.
What a bag of vinegar.
Yu Sui put down his phone and opened the game client that was being shown on the live broadcast. He started typing amidst all the howling in the barrage.
In front of another computer, Shi Luo was beginning to regret that hes been a bit too unreasonable. But within a couple of seconds, messages began popping up on his friends chat interface.
[Whisper]: [If you want to sleep already, its okay. But if youre not yet sleepy, should we play for a bit?]
[Whisper]: [Do you want to maybe play for a bit?]
[Whisper]: [Ill play milktank for you and help you level up.]
[Whisper]: [Is that ok with you?]
[Whisper]: [Why wont you reply?]
[Whisper]: [Reply back, okay?]
[Whisper]: [If you dont want to reply, you can also just click to agree.]
[Whisper]: [Ill be waiting for you.]
