37 Chapter 34 Part 2
The picture had gone viral on the internet, having been reposted over
2000 times and was overflowing with comments-- --
[That young man's Lu Yue: Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh my Lu! ! ! !]
[Her king: Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh my wife Smiling! ! !]
[ZGDX larger than all: Nice picture.]
[Yihaha: The new generation "light and shadow" has been born. Looking
forward to the summer season.]
[Short legged dog: New summer uniforms looking good. Hehe, ZGDX should
be in blue and white.]
[Little wife of Ah Yue: …...I'm jealous. Doesn't this picture look like a wedding
picture if it was hanging in the bedroom? ? I want to send over some razor
blades again.]
[I'm just passing by: Does this mean that Lu for sure will be on the summer
player list? The picture seems to pass the message-- --start player: Smiling;
substitute: Lu.]
[Give me an elephant: Cheng-Yao gang, hold me tight! Make sure I stand
firmly in the ground and not be swayed so easily!]
[Ah Tong: How are you, the most popular Cheng-Yao gang. I'm Yue-Yao
gang. From today and onward, this gang will emerge as a new force.]
...
Tong Yao stared at the picture for a while, then went through the comments.
After a long while, she turned her head to check on Lu Yue. Lu Yue was also
looking at his cell phone in his hand. As if he sensed Tong Yao's gaze, he
raised his eyes to glance at her-- --
Both of their eyes locked in the air for 3 seconds.
Then they each rolled their eyes and turned their eyes away in disgust.
Tong Yao collapsed back into the sofa.
"I told the official site to release this photo." Xiao Rui came into the living room.
"Before the official announcement, I'll let those who can figure it out know that
ZGDX will still has two Mids at the summer games."
"Not many people will figure it out." Lu Sicheng sarcastically commented,
"Most of them will think our Mids got married at the Civil Affairs Bureau."
Tong Yao jumped up from the sofa, straightened her upper body, put both of
her hands on her knees, and widened her eyes to look at the captain in
confusion. Xiao Rui was also taken aback: "Most people? Who?"
"My mom, his mom." Lu Sicheng pointed at Lu Yue. "On my cell phone, there
are 5 missed calls and over a dozen unread WeChat messages. All of them
are asking whether her youngest son has a girlfriend now. And why a couple's
portrait would be released on the official site."
Lu Yue was stunned to hear it. He hurriedly grabbed his cell phone to dial
a number and went outside to clarify about this affair.
Tong Yao was glad that her mom hadn't gone onto Weibo yet. But she
overlooked the fact that she had a good friend who did go on Weibo.
Less than 5 minutes after Lu Yue had gone outside, the Mid from the team
next door came by for a visit with his girlfriend. The moment Tong Yao
opened the door, the hand of her 172 cm tall, high heels wearing friend
landed on her shoulder: "Nice picture."
Tong Yao felt a gaze shooting daggers from behind.
Tong Yao tightened her back: "Don't talk nonsense! Our team forbids
internal love affairs."
Jinyang smiled like a flower: "I didn't say anything, my friend."
Tong Yao felt the gaze behind had turned into a spotlight. She turned to
check and found there was no one behind her. Xiao Rui was on the phone;
Old Cat and Old K were playing duos on the computers; Little Fatty was
kneeling before the refrigerator, flipping through its contents; Lu Sicheng
was sitting on the sofa playing on his cell phone-- --
Everyone seemed busy.
Tong Yao breathed out a sigh of relief. She left Ai Jia to her teammates
and pushed Jinyang upstairs. Jinyang spoke as she was whisked up the
stairs: "I saw the male lead talking on the phone on my way in-- --I heard
he's Lu Sicheng's brother, they do look alike. I almost mistook him as Lu
Sicheng when I first saw him…...He's really handsome, it almost gives me
the wrong impression that there's good looking guys everywhere in the
esport circle."
"Then?"
"Then, why do I get to pick the leftover Ai Jia among all the good looking
ones?"
"..."
"-- --Hey, the one upstairs, I heard that!"
Ai Jia's voice came from downstairs. Jinyang made a face and dragged
Tong Yao into her room…...Tong Yao was still wearing their summer uniform
which was somewhat scratchy since they hadn't been washed yet. She
wanted to change into something more comfortable once she was back in
her own room-- --Jinyang sat crossed legged behind her as Tong Yao was
changing. When she saw the underwear that Tong Yao was wearing underneath
the uniform, Jinyang chided her: "Tsk, what are you wearing?"
"Underwear." Tong Yao turned around without much expression. "What
about it?"
Jinyang glanced over the childish prints on the underwear, though there
were two bow ties on both sides of the panty-- --
Jinyang supported her chin with one hand and understandably said: "Now
I think I might have gotten something wrong."
"What?" Tong Yao turned to grab a t-shirt to put on and asked.
"It's quite possible that there are people who do like this kind of underwear."
"..."
"But, you have to be careful now. If someone truly likes this style, then he
must be, without a doubt, a pervert."
Tong Yao threw the summer uniform onto her face. Jinyang fell onto the
bed in laughter. Tong Yao got on top her trying to stifle her laughter, yelling
all the while, "You better shut up, hurry." The person who was being pushed
down couldn't possibly see that Tong Yao was blushing more than usual-- --
As the two were fooling around, Tong Yao's cell phone vibrated. She got
up to get her phone, panting. On the screen, there were a few short messages-- --
[djwdb2333: Food's here.]
[djwdb2333: I paid.]
[djwdb2333: Come down to eat.]
Tong Yao; "Ahhhh!"
Jinyang got off the bed as well: "What?"
Tong Yao smoothed out her hair: "The food's here."
She quickly sent out three WeChat messages-- --
[Don't, don't, don't.]
[I'll pay, I'll pay. I promised to buy dinner for everyone today!]
[I'm coming! Don't you do anything!]
Tong Yao put the phone into her pocket and hurried downstairs. When
she opened the door, she could hear people moving around and picking
up bowls and chopsticks downstairs. She quickened her steps, ready to
pay Lu Sicheng back. On the way, she heard Lu Yue asking: "Ge, give
me your phone. Mine's out of battery."
Tong Yao didn't think too much about it and kept going.
While she was half way down on the stairs, she heard Lu Yue pause a
bit then confusedly asked-- --
"Who's this 'rabbit hugging carrot'? He sent a WeChat to you saying that
he's coming soon and to not do anything. Do what?"
Just as Lu Yue finished, everyone downstairs heard a crashing sound
coming from the staircase, followed by a girl's pained scream. Startled,
everyone turned their head to take a look and saw their Mid sitting at the
bottom of the stairs in a awkward position. Her slippers landing some
distance away. She continued to sit in the same position as she had when
she tumbled down.
"Shoot, are you alright, Tong Yao?"
"What are you running for? You can't be that hungry."
"Get up, get up, hurry…...Are you hurt anywhere? Did you twist your foot?"
Everyone swarmed around her after getting over the shock.
Only the Lu brothers stood still. Lu Sicheng glanced at the person who
was in so much pain that it caused her face to twist and being helped
off the ground by Little Fatty. Then he turned his face away and pulled
his cell phone back from Lu Yue's hand: "It's no one. Why are you so
curious? Just use the phone, what are you nosing around for?"
