FOG [e-sports]Chapter 53

Chapter 53:

Having some unknown internet celebrity anchor try to piggyback off on their popularity was something a lot of pro-players encounter. Having being in this industry for so long, Shi Luo clearly understood the situation. He knew that it had nothing to do with Yu Sui. However, despite listening to the entire sequence of events just now, Shi Luo still felt inexplicably angry. RytuHo

When he first met Yu Sui two years ago, there was always this person who was around Yu Sui for some inexplicable reason. For some unexplainable reason, she became Yu Sui’s friend and for some inexplicable reason, she prattled on to others about how she’s been doing this and that with him. Long story short, those who didn’t know the situation actually thought that Yu Sui had gotten himself a girlfriend.

At the time, Shi Luo couldn’t even bear how close Yu Sui and Ji Yanhan were, let alone this “person who had come later than he himself.”

For what reason?

Shi Luo himself hadn’t even gotten much of anywhere yet so why should others get to apologize and add Yu Sui on WeChat? TDd2l

In the course of time, would Yu Sui really play milktank for her?

Going a step further, in the future was he going to have to look at someone else’s face when he teams up with Yu Sui?

The most terrible thing was that Yu Sui even told himself plainly today, that he had already accepted his schemes.

While playing double row with Chen Huo, Shi Luo was tearing up with regret. He should have just asked clearly that afternoon. In the end, do you really just love falling endlessly for disaster-courting traps like these, or…

Do you only let yourself fall for my traps?

Therefore, when Yu Sui sent Shi Luo that message to team up, Shi Luo hesitated and didn’t reply.

Instead, he switched to WeChat and sent Yu Sui a message there instead.

Originally, Shi Luo only wanted Yu Sui to post two or three more messages. He has always been quick to anger but also quick to cool off. Actually, Shi Luo had already worked off his anger when Yu Sui opened that live broadcast and asked him to pair up just now. It was fine as long as it gets that little anchor to leave and get far away from their team captain. Who knew that Yu Sui, this slag man, would be so good at coaxing people? Message after message, message after message, each more ambiguous than the last. Looking at these messages, Shi Luo’s ears turned red. s6Np7H

Yu Sui’s typing speed was too fast and the messages were sent at lightning speed. Shi Luo’s ears flushed red and pressed the queue up button in a fluster. Only then did Yu Sui called off his attacks.

However, at this moment, the barrage in Yu Sui’s live broadcast was blowing up. Everyone was rendered confused and disoriented by Yu Sui’s show. For a while, none of them could react.

While waiting for the match to start, Shi Luo held an unlit cigarette in his mouth, and couldn’t help quietly reopening Yu Sui’s live broadcast and taking a look at the barrage.

[If it weren’t for this familiar hand speed and keyboard clacking sounds, I would suspect Whisper had been hacked. ]

[Although he hadn’t opened his webcam, I’m pretty sure. That’s definitely Yu Sui. ]

[Wow, teaming up with Evil again! Technical fans are very satisfied. ]

[I can’t f*cking believe it. Those were things my husband typed just now…] hlKOs1

[Don’t tease my son, Luo Luo like this. QAQ, our Luo Luo has just come of age. ]

[Doesn’t everyone Whisper wants to team up with immediately accept? What’s going on here?]

Chrysanthemum Garden.

[Can anyone tell me what happened? When did this slag man I watched grow up get so good at coaxing people? Whisper, what did you do behind our backs? ]

[Exposed — the unknown side of the Free team.] kqrXoz

[@Free e-sports club, just what is going on between your team’s medic and striker? ]

[…Who would have thought that a month ago, it was still being said that these two create nothing but an abyss of misery for each other, that they would grow old and die without having any dealings with each other? F*ck. Is there no longer any truth in this world?]

[TTATT, it’s been two years, please, please give me a definite answer. Are you two for real?]

[In the future, if anyone says Yu Sui’s a slag man, I’m gonna tell them, Yu Sui’s not a slag man, he just hadn’t found someone he wanted to coax…] N0KI72

[*Sheds tears*…Couldn’t you have given a fraction of that sweet talk you gave just now to coax your fans on Weibo? Whoever told you that your fans only wanted trophies! You slag man!]

Zhou Huo was even more contented. He watched as Yu Sui executed these series of steps and couldn’t help but be struck dumb with admiration. This was simply the acme of perfection. These two were definitely the two players who were most cooperative with his propaganda work!

Getting results in the competitions was the players’ job. Zhou Huo’s job was to make sure no outsiders would hinder or obstruct the team. This naturally included not letting people from outside the team who had nothing to do with them to piggyback off the heat and popularity of his team. Today, the one who was angered the most by this anchor’s coquettish scheme was undoubtedly Zhou Huo. Zhou Huo went to check the popularity of that little anchor’s live broadcast. After seeing that it had fallen to her usual level, he was in a much better mood. Still, his anger was not yet satisfied and so he had the team’s publicity department download Yu Sui’s live broadcast video to come up with a short video to warn off those persistent bloodsuckers trying to target pro-players. dwaV80

Adding someone on WeChat pretending to want to apologize after a few car crashes, Zhou Huo would never believe someone who did this didn’t come with ulterior motives.

Free’s publicity department staff were all Zhou Huo’s personal soldiers. They executed his orders cleanly and resolutely, with the power of a thunderbolt and the speed of lightning. Early the next day, a video was posted. The title entirely captured Zhou Huo’s intention. “Whisper’s Double Standards”.

In the morning, in the airport VIP lounge, all of Free’s players were too sleepy to even open their eyes. They collapsed on the sofa, trying to catch up on sleep. Zhou Huo looked at Weibo, absolutely beside himself with joy. “Look at this popularity, look at this page views…”

“What did you post again?” Chen Huo’s face was the very picture of renal deficiency. He opened his eyes with much difficulty and took out his phone to have a look. He refreshed Weibo, movements sluggish, clicked on the comments, glanced at it, and read, deadpan, “I, have, discovered, that, Yu, Shen, likes, the type, who, throws, mini, temper, tantrums oh…hee hee, hee hee…” u2Adnd

“Looks, like, Yu, Shen, likes, little, kids, who, act, all, petulant…”

Chen Huo narrowed his eyes. He tried to get his tired brain working. Not quite understanding, he asked, “Are they talking about Yu Sui?”

Chen Huo raised his head to look at Yu Sui, who was leaning against the sofa with his eyes closed. Chen Huo decided to test out what he had just learned. He said, trying to sound him out, “Yu Ge~, pour me a glass of sparkling water and put a slice of lemon in it.”

Yu Sui slowly opened his eyes and tilted his head to look at Chen Huo. His voice carried that slight early-morning-hoarseness, “What did you say?” yhmCWA

Chen Huo gulped and continued, “If you don’t, I won’t drink water for the entire day! I’ll let myself die of thirst.”

Yu Sui looked at Chen Huo like he was some sort of idiot. He agreed, “Okay, if you can’t hold back from drinking, then you’re my b*tch.”

Puppy laughed, half asleep. Chen Huo said angrily, “The fans said you liked it when people threw mini temper tantrums! They even f*cking praised you for being all gentle! Gentle, my ass! Did you record that just now? Video staff? Tell me you recorded that!! Let the fans see how he normally treats me!”

The video staff who followed them around chucked and didn’t dare turn on the cameras. Chen Huo glanced at a certain sunglasses-wearing someone who was sleeping not far away. He snorted, “Calamitous beauty. Why aren’t Yu Sui’s fanatical girlfriend fans tearing into him…” dKiuma

As facts would prove, Yu Sui’s girlfriend fans were very calm. They even sent Shi Luo PM messages, expressing their sincere gratitude.

Before boarding the plane, Shi Luo also took a look at Weibo. His inbox was full of thank you messages from Yu Sui’s fans. Everyone sincerely thanked Shi Luo for blocking those ghouls and monsters for Yu Sui. They also asked Shi Luo to continue with his efforts. They reminded him to not be so good-tempered. So long as there was someone trying to rub off on his popularity, Shi Luo was to use any aggressive behavior to drive away that nobody. They told him to feel free to use his great spraying skills he often used on sh*t passerby teammates. He was to let loose and use his skills to its greatest extent.

With Shi Luo, with his highly effective temper tantrums, within the team, Yu Sui’s girlfriend fans could rest assured.

The flight attendant came to remind him and Shi Luo turned his phone to airplane mode. Uycg1q

Shi Luo looked at Yu Sui on his left, who was sleeping with his headphones on. An idiom came unbidden into his head.

An inside job — Stealing what is entrusted to one’s care.

Shi Luo choked, put on his headphones uneasily, and closed his eyes.

A three-hour flight, plus matches in the afternoon. He really should sleep for a while. But Shi Luo just couldn’t sleep. He kept thinking of that scene on the terrace yesterday. G7qRF3

Sometimes, there are some scenes that come too unexpectedly and too hurriedly, without any rehearsal or design. Everything then just happens, without any preparation.

If he could go back twenty hours into the past, Shi Luo wouldn’t have said so little. He would have wanted to say thank you to Yu Sui.

Thank you for caring so that my sincerity was not in vain.

Thank you for your feeling distressed for me so that it could also experience the feeling of someone’s concern. fq4BNV

Shi Luo was embarrassed to say how much he cared about this.

Since he was a child no one has ever been concerned for Shi Luo.

Of course, Shi Luo grew up freely, and he grew safely up to this point. If one weren’t to be too strict about it, you could say that Shi Luo grew up well.

But he still wished for someone to dote on him. Maybe he didn’t need to put it that sappily. He also wanted someone to care. y0qTQI

To sincerely care about him.

All the people around him had designs for him to some extent. Shi Luo could see it clearly. Only Yu Sui never had any plans for him.

Therefore, Shi Luo grew addicted to Yu Sui’s care and he grew somewhat stubborn.

It felt good for his every move to incur someone’s notice. Wq5v y

Shi Luo chewed gum slowly, saying in his heart, ‘he conceded that he felt concerned, that’s already enough.’

Returning to Free after those twists and turns. It was all very much worth it.

In the future, he must try his best not to court disaster or be childish anymore. He was no longer a child. He’d matured a bit too.

Shi Luo blew a bubble. I also have someone who cares about me. 5xnpmK

After quietly pondering the things that happened on the terrace yesterday, Shi Luo finally calmed down. He opened the blanket bag and wrapped it around him. He put on his eyemask and began to sleep.

Shi Luo wasn’t a behaved sleeper. He would toss and turn even on his bed, let alone in an airplane. Even though the first class seats were a bit more spacious, it was still only a bit more spacious. Shi Luo tossed and turned, half-asleep. His blanket slowly slid off little by little until it fell to the floor.

Shi Luo frowned slightly, half asleep, he was too lazy to pick it up. After a while, he felt his shoulders warm up.

Shi Luo opened his eyes, looked down through the gap in his eyemask. His blanket was on top of him again. YWdyrv

There was no need to guess who had put it there.

Shi Luo couldn’t help but say again in his heart, ‘He cares about me’.

Shi Luo, who had just told himself not to court disasters or act childish anymore, to mature a bit, who was just covered once again by a blanket; that Shi Luo’s mental age suddenly dropped by two years, returning back to two years ago.

Shi Luo moved slightly. He leaned to the left, and after a while, leaned to the right. In less than five minutes, the newly covered blanket fell to the ground once again. cylTIg

Shi Luo instantly stopped moving. With the eyemask on, he could only look through that tiny sliver below. He paid close attention and not more than three minutes later…

In the gap below the eyemask, Yu Sui’s wrist appeared, pulling up the blanket.

After half a minute, the blanket was lightly covering him again.

For the first time, Shi Luo felt that airline blankets were so soft. XS1hk7

Shi Luo could not restrain himself from being a demon. After behaving himself for less than three minutes, he once again shook off that blanket.

He then quickly opened his eyes and stared at the gap in the eyemask.

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

Less than a minute this time, the blanket was picked up again.

Yu Sui was probably worried that the blanket would slip off again. This time, when he covered him with the blanket, he leaned over and his fingers carelessly bumped against Shi Luo’s ear. Shi Luo couldn’t see anything. He only felt that his ears had instantly turned hot. pjhyIT

Shi Luo was quiet for less than two minutes. Cursing at himself for being crazy, while also saying that this was the last time, definitely the last time, he rolled over again.

Yu Sui had draped the blanket a bit high. This time, it wasn’t so easy to get it to come off. He needed to work hard for it. Shi Luo turned over again. When he faced Yu Sui’s side, Shi Luo paused, preparing to move a bit more aggressively next time. With unrelenting effort, Shi Luo managed to throw off this unlucky blanket. Without waiting for him to turn over once again, his left earphone was plucked off.

Shi Luo couldn’t see anything with the eyemask on. The next second, before he could react, he heard Yu Sui whisper into his left ear, “If you throw the blanket off again, I’m not going to pick it up for you anymore.”
