[MelonRind: Didn’t you say that there would be an advertisement job after the national qualifiers? My figure is about to go out of shape as I stay at home!]
[ManagerYuanWei: Damn it you remembered! Very worthy of how much I usually dote on you!]
[ManagerYuanWei: I’ve already found the advertisement a month ago, high fees and it does not require too many shots. Otherwise I’m afraid our Captain won’t allow us to do it.]
[MelonRind: Why?]
[ManagerYuanWei: He finds it low.]
[MelonRind: What advertisement is it?]
[ManagerYuanWei: A newly launched hair shampoo, Kao Anti-hair Loss Shampoo. I say you ought to really rein Captain in, I’ve already told him that you want to do it and he still wouldn’t approve of it!]
[MelonRind: You ought to feel blessed.]
[ManagerYuanWei: What?]
[MelonRind: Feel blessed that Captain can’t hit you through the screen.]
[MelonRind: You ought to properly reflect on your abilities, as a battleteam manager, really, you’re letting the nation’s top battleteam take on this advertisement… tsk tsk tsk, even I can’t bother nagging at you.]
[ManagerYuanWei: ?]
Ji Zhiyao was all refreshed from rebutting Yuan Wei, laying back on his bed, he laid for a moment and still could not fall asleep, then got up again to switch on his computer.
He had not touched his game in several days, his hands felt especially itchy.
Ji Zhiyao first launched the Heroes client, then logged onto his own livestream room. Though he was on vacation now, but the clauses of the contract remain in effect, they were still required to complete 40 hours of livestream in a month.
Ji Zhiyao took several glances at the livestream room, there weren’t too many fans, about 20 thousand. He greeted them, then minimized the livestream room and began a ranked match.
As it was the holidays, there were many people playing ranked matches, Ji Zhiyao waited for quite a while before he was matched up with teammates. He had just locked in his position, when he saw the messages in the public chat growing rapidly.
[ [TEAM] I Am The AD: What the f*ck? Yao-god? Is this for real?]
[ [TEAM] Big-chested Loli Alice: Ahhhh! Yao-god please carry us! I am your little fan, you’re really handsome!]
[ [ENEMY] My Hug Is Very Firm: Suddenly feeling guilty.]
[ [TEAM] Five Pigs Opposite: I can meet a professional player, even in a casual ranked match? Wow, I have nothing for that. I will first go get a lottery ticket when I head out later.]
[ [ENEMY] NabiXOXO: Oh dear dear, Brother Yao-god xoxo, please have mercy on us later, do go easy QAQ]
Ji Zhiyao was stunned, then instinctively glanced at his username.
Damn it, he’d forgotten to switch to his alternate account.
… But actually it wouldn’t be of much use if he had switched to his alternate account either, after all he was still livestreaming.
Ji Zhiyao scratched his head resignedly, then bit the bullet and sent a “hello everyone”, so as to avoid having screenshots taken and being criticized on Weibo and Tieba that he was outrageously arrogant that he had no respect for anyone… But he did not expect that after his reply, it was as if the public chat exploded, messages were spammed, Ji Zhiyao’s became distressed the more he read on.
He had also met Mo Huaifeng in a match previously, but back then he was obviously very restrained. The others in the game also merely expressed some exclamations and did not appear to be too surprised…
Why were the people now so exaggerated?
Ji Zhiyao could not understand.
Actually to Ji Zhiyao now, as long as there weren’t any especially good feeders or professional players in his team, winning could be easily achieved. Yet something that totally differed from his imagination was that his teammates all totally weren’t playing serious, everyone was just symptomatically moving around here and there, then they would send messages in the public chat, clamoring for him to show a penta-kill.
His opponents were also very interesting. Out of a total of five people, with the exception of the mid-laner who wasn’t too ridiculous and assiduously remained in the middle lane, the remaining four all came into Ji Zhiyao’s jungle to block his way.
He was jungling when a bunch of people suddenly appeared and surrounded him, his other teammates pretended as if they did not see a thing, seeming like they were intending on leaving him to his own devices.
Ji Zhiyao prided himself on being good-tempered, but he was also utterly frustrated by such brainless plays. Taking into consideration that he was livestreaming, he could only suppress his anger and barely made his escape.
He then decided to consecutively buy a few pairs of accelerated boots and roam the top, middle and bottom lanes, as well as the opponent’s jungle to develop himself, his movements were as slick as mudfish, no one could catch him.
[ [ENEMY] You Fool: Psh, why are you so good at hiding, what’s the big deal about the champion of the national qualifiers, who are you looking down on? Looks like you can’t beat us all the same?]
[ [ENEMY] My Hug Is Very Firm: Yao-god, look, I’m a jungler too, why don’t we play a solo against each other?]
[ [TEAM] BigBoobsLoliAlice: Chaaarge Yao-god, fight them head on! Don’t let them look down on us!]
When Ji Zhiyao caught sight of these few lines, he lifted the corner of his lips, the angle that formed was a little cold. He hid in a bush, then typed: [Sorry, I’ve been my Captain’s stooge for a long time, I love sponging off him, I don’t dare to fight head on, I’m really cowardly.]
After sending that message, he did not read the replies that followed, leaped out of the bush and continued to roam the map to develop.
Meanwhile, his foolish teammates seemed to have finally become aware of how ridiculous they were and began to play in their own positions after sending replies of “heh heh heh”. 20 minutes later, as he was dying to end this match, Ji Zhiyao went at a mad pace to consecutively take down the big and small dragon and pushed into the opponent’s base very soon after.
Then it was followed by…
Kill!
Double kill!
Triple kill!
Quadra kill!
As the opposite support “NabiXOXO” was standing slightly towards the back, after Ji Zhiyao had wiped out the other four players, he then walked in her direction with his long sword. Yet it was as if a switched on “NabiXOXO” had been turned on as she began to fervently spam messages.
[ [ENEMY] NabiXOXO: Yao-god could you please don’t kill me QAQ, I am your loyal little fan, I bought lots of your merchandise!]
[ [ENEMY] NabiXOXO: I’m quite pretty, I’ll show you a photo of myself, Yao-god do you want to consider video-calling me?]
[ [ENEMY] NabiXOXO: Can you bring me up to Challenger rank if we become friends with benefits Brother Yao-god? You’re so good-looking, I really like you very much.]
[ [ENEMY] NabiXOXO: Hey look at me Yao-god!]
What bullsh*t strategy was this?
Hooking up for Challenger rank?
His face was a little blue and he ignored all the messages on the public chat, moving to finish off the last player “NabiXOXO” who was still spamming messages, then pushed the crystal, ending the torturous match.
Ji Zhiyao did not even look at the results and directly quit the interface of the previous match. After deliberating for a long time, he chose a solo mode against bots.
Had he chosen another ranked match and it turned out to be as atrocious as the previous match, he might just develop a ‘phobia of games’.
After several matches against bots, Ji Zhiyao sighed and heard the vibration of a call from his phone. Upon seeing the caller ID, he secretly coughed and hung up, placed his phone at a side and pretended that nothing had happened.
After ten plus minutes, he “unintentionally” glanced at the time, maximized the livestream room and said, “That’s enough for today, let’s continue to chat tomorrow.”
With that, he did not even read the comments and turned off the livestream directly.
In the next second, Ji Zhiyao had already leapt out of his chair and frantically picked up his phone to return Mo Huaifeng’s call.
The call was picked up very quickly, he said, “Captain, I was livestreaming just now, what’s up?”
“I know, I was watching.”
“Sponging off?”
“That was just a casual remark, don’t take it seriously! I obviously carry the match often alright?”
Mo Huaifeng leisurely replied with an “oh”. “Friends with benefits to bring her to Challenger rank, this condition is so tempting.”
“Damn you saw that!”
“Heh, it’s not like I’m blind.”
A wave of guilt suddenly washed over Ji Zhiyao, he pinched his ear lobe and grumbled, “Oh dear you really can’t blame me for this, I wasn’t the one to say that am I right? Did you see me pay any attention to her from the start?”
“You were dazed.”
“That was obviously from being shocked-
“Hm, Captain are you jealous?”
“Do you know what I like about you?”
Ji Zhiyao was dumbfounded, not knowing why the topic suddenly took a turn so quickly, yet he was really looking forward to Mo Huaifeng’s cheesy words… Hence he coughed in an attempt to hide his intentions but only served to expose himself more as he asked, “What?”
“I like how you are when you’re so imaginative.”
“Screw you!”
Ji Zhiyao felt very aggrieved, the type that could not be surprised.
Mo Huaifeng then continued, “I saw you on the trending searches earlier, ‘Yao-god seduced by beautiful female player’, the description is really not bad.”
Ji Zhiyao froze and was promptly overwhelmed by anger. “What bullsh*t, even a beautiful female player, I didn’t even see her face alright?”
Mo Huaifeng was calm. “You’re feeling rather regretful about that?”
Ji Zhiyao instantly shut his mouth and became low-spirited.
He had realized, no matter what he said his Captain would be able to link it to something negative, it would be better if he just kept his mouth shut.
Seeing that he was behaved, a small smile appeared on Mo Huaifeng’s face on the other end of the call. “When you play next time switch to an alternate account that you’ve never used before, don’t livestream, otherwise it’s very likely for such incidents to happen.”
Ji Zhiyao could not help but rebut, “I wasn’t this idiotic when I met you for the first time in a match, when is it so different now when it comes to me.”
“I’m aloof.”
If Ji Zhiyao were to die someday, it’s definitely because he’d been too playful.
“What are you doing at home?”
Ji Zhiyao crossed one leg over the other, his tone casual as he conveyed, “I’m the only one at home, I do whatever I want to. Eat then sleep then eat again after waking up, peacefully being a phyzait. What about you Captain? You have many people at home, it must be especially fun.”
He remembered hearing from Mo Huaifeng previously that his parents had already retired and were relaxed at home every day, rearing birds and gardening, living a very idle life. Mo Huaifeng also had a biological older brother who had gotten married a few years ago and had a little nephew, their family was considered big.
“Still good. Except that my mum is making me go on blind dates.”
Ji Zhiyao’s jaw dropped. “What was that can you repeat yourself?”
Hearing the awkwardness in his tone, Mo Huaifeng’s mood involuntarily became better and he repeated, “Blind dating.”
“Damn it! Jerk! The TV dramas always show certain gays faking marriages with young ladies in order to deceive their families, while still continuing their relationships with their boyfriends on the outside, they were referring to people like you!”
“What nonsense!”
“Since I’ve encountered this, I’m going to enforce justice on behalf of the heavens!”
A moment of silence.
Ji Zhiyao sensed that it seemed like even Mo Huaifeng’s breathing was filled with confusion, he really couldn’t keep it in any longer and burst into laughter. “I was messing with you Captain.
“So did you really go?”
Mo Huaifeng had mixed feelings. “And if I did?”
Ji Zhiyao blurted out, “Impossible! I totally trust you!”
Mo Huaifeng did not had time to feel touched, when he heard Ji Zhiyao mutter the next half of his sentence to himself. “Then I will have a reason to charge you a large sum of compensation for emotional damages and happily spend my remaining days with riches in both arms, there’s virtually nothing better.”
“Heh heh.”
Ji Zhiyao was about to tease him more when he heard a beeping sound. He brought the phone to his front with a puzzled look and realized that Mo Huaifeng had already hung up.
…
It was New Years’ Eve today and a rare occasion that both their parents were at home.
The family of four sat at the table to eat together, as Ji Qingge would be taking her national exams in another half a year’s time, hence the topic of their parents’ topics were essentially all about her.
Ji Zhiyao sat dazedly at a side holding his bowl, the conversations that were happening at the table entered through one ear and left through the other.
Their mother nagged, “… You must be more diligent yourself too. If there’s anything you want to know, talk to your brother more often, he is much more experienced than you are.”
Ji Qingge nodded. “I got it, mum.”
She looked towards Ji Zhiyao who was still in a dazed state and mischievously used her elbow to bump his arm. Ji Zhiyao was given a rude awakening, Ji Qingge leaned over and whispered into his ear, “Brother, is Fi-god still ignoring you?”
Ji Zhiyao lifted a corner of his lips and feigned a smile. “Touching a tender spot there, are you asking for a beating?”
Ji Qingge dodged backwards and grinned. “I’m so scaaaaared.”
“… Damn it.”
Ever since the matter of Mo Huaifeng ignoring him after he had fooled around was made known to Ji Qingge, she had been continuously mocking him for days. Ji Zhiyao was already in a bad mood, each time he heard the teasing from Ji Qingge, he felt an even greater urge to hit someone.
… So why was his mouth so cheap then! Isn’t it great to just live happily!
Captain is truly scary when he rages.
Ji Zhiyao rolled his eyes at Ji Qingge and continued to bow down and dig into his dumplings.
His mother caught sight and asked, “Zhiyao, you’ve been spacing out quite a lot these days, what’s wrong?”
Ji Zhiyao froze, lifted his head and a thought suddenly formed astutely in his mind.
He had been dating Mo Huaifeng for about half a year…
Isn’t it time to let his parents know?
Once this thought sprouted, it was like a weed, instantly growing madly in Ji Zhiyao’s heart, the more he considered it, the more feasible it felt.
Although he ought to pick an opportune moment for this matter of publicly coming out… Yet, one always had to wait for such moments, he did not know how long it would drag on for.
Then why not do it now.
His parents have one more day off tomorrow, even if they cannot accept it for now, they would still have ample time to calm down; Ji Qingge was home on break and she could to plead for his mercy; and most importantly, he would not suffer from a beating during the New Year celebration period…
