CHAPTER 47

With Lu Sicheng's interruption, Jian Yang couldn't possibly continue with his

confession. Tong Yao dragged him to the gate but Jian Yang wouldn't leave

unless Tong Yao unblocked him from every social network.

Tong Yao looked down on her cell phone and unblocked Jian Yang from QQ,

WeChat, Weibo, and his cell phone number…...The light from the cell phone

shone on her face. Jian Yang leaned against the fence and watched her as

she was working through each app------

"That should be all of them?" Tong Yao finally removed his name from her cell

phone's blocked contact list and waved the phone: "Don't say such nonsense

or I'll put you back on the list."

"What nonsense?"

"Asking to get back together or asking me watch you excel in the field; those

things."

"Oh." Jian Yang briefly acknowledged it. Then he stretched his arm over her

shoulder and pointed at her cell phone: "Have you unblocked me from our

school's directory?"

Tong Yao laughed and raised her head: "Are you for real? Who's still using

the school directory-----"

Before she could finish, the arm above her shoulder suddenly latched onto her

shoulder and pulled her backwards. As Tong Yao leaned back, the man behind

her lowered his head and his soft, cold lips landed on her cheek.

Tong Yao stood frozen for a couple of seconds.

Jian Yang had released her and pretended like nothing had happened. He

straightened up and flagged down a passing taxi. He paused when he opened

the taxi door and couldn't help but turning to glance at Tong Yao who was still

standing there, dumbfounded. Jian Yang lightly said: "I'm going now."

"En?" Tong Yao nodded: "Oh."

The car door closed and Jian Yang was gone.

Tong Yao watched the taxi grew smaller and smaller, then lowered her head

to check her cell phone, and finally raised her hand to wipe her cheek with the

back of her hand. She blinked and couldn't really figure out what she was feeling------

But she had a hunch that she wouldn't need to block Jian Yang anymore. Jian Yang

wouldn't be talking about that nonsense anymore...

It was all in the past.

It was the best result if the two of them, who didn't interact much before, could

talk peacefully face to face once again.

Tong Yao put the cell phone back into her pocket and turned around to go back

to the base. She was shocked to find Lu Sicheng standing behind her-----He

was in a t-shirt, shorts, and flip-flops, with a black windbreaker on top. The odd

combination somehow looked quite nice on him.

Tong Yao was so startled that she backed away a few steps. Lu Sicheng had to

grab her so she wouldn't fall off the sidewalk and get crushed by a car…...

Lu Sicheng released his grip after she steadied herself. Tong Yao shuddered:

"When did you get here?"

"Just now." Lu Sicheng said: "You two back together?"

"No, we aren't."

"Then why did he kiss you?"

Tong Yao blushed a bit: "It's just a friendly kiss."

"..." Lu Sicheng fixed his eyes on Tong Yao for a while and flatly said: "Do

you think I'm a three year old?"

After saying that, he slightly raised his chin and turned to go back to the

residential area. Tong Yao stood there for a few seconds, then quickly

followed after him-----Lu Sicheng walked very fast; on of his steps was one

and half steps for Tong Yao. In the end, Tong Yao almost had to hop like a

rabbit to stay behind him.

"Captain."

"En."

"Why did you come out?"

"To buy cigarettes, didn't I tell you?" Lu Sicheng took out the cigarettes he just

bought out of his pocket, together with his wallet.

Tong Yao raised her eyebrows: "Didn't you say you didn't have money with you?"

"...Just because I have my wallet with me doesn't mean I have money in it."

Lu Sicheng very naturally put his wallet back into his pocket.

Tong Yao thought that could be true. Many times she had only a couple dollars

left in her wallet------She rarely went out and even if she did, there wasn't much

use for cash nowadays since everything could be paid online…...She watched

Lu Sicheng stuff the cigarettes back into the pocket: "You haven't smoked in the

past couple of days because of your cough, I thought you're going to quit it."

"I'm fine now." After saying that, Lu Sicheng stopped and coughed again.

Tong Yao: "..."

Lu Sicheng pretended nothing had happened and continued to walk forward.

Tong Yao hopped to get in the front of him and stared at his expressionless face

for a while: "Why do I feel that you came out deliberately to mess things up? Did

Jinyang say anything to you?"

"No. Mess things up? Mess what up? Why do you say that?"

"Based on my teenage girl's sixth sense."

"A person like you who's as slow as an elephant doesn't have that."

"Then let me see your cell phone."

"You want to see my cell phone?"

"Yeah."

"Don't push your luck." Lu Sicheng sneered.

Well, he was still the captain. Tong Yao had expended all the courage she had

to challenge him. She touched her nose, afraid to go further…...The two of them

returned to the base. When they appeared at the doorway one after another,

Lu Yue, who was on Tong Yao's seat, looked up at them while in the middle of

a game: "Why are you two coming back together? Shorty, where's your Yang God?

You two back together? Or did you refuse him and get together with my brother?"

"We happened to arrive at the same time. Yang God went back. To hell with

getting back with him and to hell with getting together with your brother." Tong Yao

lazily replied and put on her slippers after removing her shoes. "I want to live a

few years longer and definitely won't fall in love with a professional player."

"Can't you talk more civilly?"

"No, I can't."

As she spoke, Tong Yao walked over to her computer. She watched Lu Yue play

a ranked game behind him. Lu Yue was playing Leblanc, with 1 kill, 12 deaths,

and 7 assists. She tittered and was ready to move on, but noticed something

that didn't seem right. She backtracked, bent down, and squinted carefully at

the computer screen. With a shriek, Tong Yao pinched Lu Yue's ear------

"Lu Yue, damn you! You're messing up my account! ! ! ! !"

"Let go of me. I'm about to get the upper hand. I can win this round!"

"To hell with winning! I don't see any sign that you can win!"

As they were bickering, the enemy's mid typed in the public chat:

It was in Korean and roughly translated to: You said you're Smiling?

Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha.

Tong Yao covered her eyes with her palm: "You made me lose face. Do you

know how to use Leblanc? QRWE, auto-attack, A-move, ignite, Q. See! The

damn guy is dead!"

"I was going to use that combo. He was dead even if you didn't say anything."

"Like hell you were going to do that."

As they argued, Lu Sicheng poured a cup of water for himself and passed by

behind them, commenting: "so noisy." He took off the windbreaker and placed

it on the back of the chair and sat down in his seat, putting his hands onto the

mouse and keyboard…...Tong Yao, from the corner of her eyes, saw a mass

of white characters floating by on Lu Sicheng's computer screen. She was

stunned: "You still have your stream on?"

"To kill time."

Lu Sicheng glanced at the screen and saw someone's bullet comment "They

didn't get back together, hahahahahahaha, that's wonderful, hahahahaha." He

snickered and took out a never before opened pack of cigarette and threw it

onto the desk, then leaned back------

"Someone said that there are two grade schoolers at ZGDX. He's flattering you

two. At most, you are kindergarteners."

As Lu Sicheng was leisurely reading the bullet comments aloud, Tong Yao was

instructing Lu Yue how to use Leblanc's abilities to get the advantage over the

enemies…...Finally, Lu Yue killed the enemy's ADC, his team won the team fight,

and pushed up to the enemy's base and win the match…...Lu Yue sighed: "Don't

you think that they should give me the MVP?"

"You think the system is blind, a MVP with a 2-12-11 Leblanc?" Tong Yao kicked

him: "Get up, don't you have a computer of your own?"

Lu Yue slowly stood up. Tong Yao instantly used her bottom to shove him away

and sat down on her own seat…...Lu Yue staggered and rolled his eyes. After

steadying himself, he stretched and noticed the pack of cigarette on Lu Sicheng's

desk. "You bought it, but not going to smoke?"

Lu Sicheng: "All of sudden, I don't feel like smoking."

Tong Yao: "He wasn't going out to buy cigarettes in the first place."

As she was speaking, she put down her mouse and with lightning speed, grasped

the piggy bank on Lu Sicheng's desk and shook it up and down. A few cigarettes

poured out together with some coins.

"See." Tong Yao put the piggy bank back: "He still has some."

Lu Yue looked at Lu Sicheng.

Lu Sicheng was unmoved: "What's wrong with taking a walk outside after being in

the base for so long? The fresh air outside is helpful for getting rid of my cold."

Lu Yue: "Alright, I believe you."

Lu Sicheng looked at Tong Yao: "The goal of our team this year is the competition

finals. No puppy love. No treason."

Tong Yao: "Oh."

Lu Sicheng turned his head back to look at his computer screen which had even

more bullet comments------

...

Lu Sicheng watched them for a while.

He clicked his mouse and dragged one of his fans into the ban list for a comment…...

something he seldom did.

Then he asked without much emotion: "Are you all having a good time? I'm

logging off."

Three seconds later, the screens of all the followers of his stream turned black.
