Chapter 105
FOG [e-sports]
E-sports clubs with a little history generally have some personal characteristics.
As a competitive sport, although their turnover of old to new was very fast, e-sports clubs have a kind of magical quality. With the replacement of players from generation to generation, each club will precipitate its own characteristics.
One example was NSN, whose name stood for ânever say neverâ. In the finals a few days ago, they had accepted that it was hopeless and yet they would rather break the cauldrons and sink the boats and play their characteristic head-on fighting style against Yu Sui and his team. If they lose, then they lose. We will never be afraid and will stand bravely in any fight.
Another example was Saint, whose every member, from their boss to the players, were saints. They were kind and gentle, willing to stake everything and give it their all for their players. They were even willing to be a free sparring team for their fellow teams in the domestic division.
Then there was Free...whose biggest feature...was probably mutual pitting.
Even if they were teammates whoâve walked through a mountain of swords and a sea of flames together. Even if they are lovers madly in love.
Two years ago, Yu Sui was able to kick Shi Luo without pity into the college entrance examination venue. Two years later, he was able to fool the unbearably sleepy and unbearably hungry little Shi Shen without blushing and without any change in his heartbeat.
After eating, Shi Luo still felt sleepy, especially sleepy, so sleepy that he couldnât keep his eyes open. Yu Sui packed up the food containers and let Shi Luo lie back on the bed. Shi Luo lay back on the bed with a frown on his face. He buried his face on Yu Suiâs pillow and fell asleep.
Yu Sui took the food containers downstairs. When he came back up, he changed his clothes and sat down by the bed. Shi Luo held Yu Suiâs hand and frowned, âItâs so cold...â
âThe temperature dropped today and itâs raining too. Here upstairs is better. Itâs even colder on the first floor.â Yu Sui scratched Shi Luoâs chin. âShi Shen, you havenât been downstairs in a few days?â
Shi Luo moved further in, making more space on the bed. He said ambiguously, âCome, come up...â
Yu Sui climbed up on the bed. Shi Luo leaned against Yu Sui and closed his eyes once again.
Yu Sui continued to play on the phone. Shi Luo continued to sleep.
An hour later, Shi Luo opened his eyes.
After having eaten and slept enough, Shi Luo regained use of his âcan score 130-points on the math test without any preparationâ brain. He sat up slowly, narrowed his eyes and said, âYu Sui, I think your logic is a bit wrong.â
Yu Sui, who was looking at his phone, didnât even lift his head. He sighed and said in a low voice, âShi Shen, thereâs no need to be so smart at your young age.â
Shi Luo became angry, âI am so...â
âIâve already followed your side account. What can I do? If I could go back in time, I might even have followed it sooner.â Yu Sui raised his head to look at Shi Luo. He smiled, âItâs my fidgety hands. How would you like to vent your anger? You tell me.â
Yu Sui leaned on the pillow and said good-naturedly, âJust donât hit my eyes or waste my hand, whatever else is up to you. I wonât try to dodge and if you leave a mark, I wonât tell others that you beat me.â
âTsk&#k2026;â Yu Sui held back a smile, âWhere can you find such a good boyfriend? Willing to endure humiliation to carry out an important mission. Willing to suffer through your domestic violence in silence.â
How could Shi Luo ever be willing to raise a hand against Yu Sui? However, he really couldnât swallow this anger. Shi Luo was going dizzy from anger. He gritted his teeth, unable to say properly what he wanted to, âYou &#k2014; you&#k2026;â
Yu Suiâs slag man essence had fully manifested. Seeing Shi Luo not moving, he lifted his chin slightly and there was a smile in his eyes, âThen how about if ge slaps himself a few times?â
Shi Luo looked at Yu Suiâs impossibly handsome face and his anger completely dissipated. He frowned and said, âDonât fool around. Donât you even dare to try to commit self-harm...â
Yu Sui lowered his head and smiled, âThis is self-harm? Then what should I do? How can you vent your anger?â
Yu Sui once again suggested good-naturedly, âThen how about you punish me by making me open a side account and have me write a small love entry every day? Then you use your main account to like my posts every day?â
Shi Luo was fully awake now and couldnât easily be deceived. Shi Luo choked from anger. âIsnât that even more inexplicable?! Youâve already admitted yourself that youâre seeing someone, whatâs the point of a side account? And besides, who would like your entries? Who the hell knows how you would depict me?!â
âI wouldnât go so far as to fabricate anything but I wouldnât be as restrained as you.â Yu Sui looked at Shi Luo. His voice was very soft, âI donât care what others say so I definitely wonât cover it up like you do. I would write whatever I want. Iâll write that you pour hot water for me. Iâll write that you went downstairs in the middle of the night to turn on the heating for me. You werenât very clear about when I got you trapped. Iâll write that I said that I wanted you to cooperate as well. And also...â
Shi Luo covered Yu Suiâs mouth.
Due to embarrassment and indignation, little Shi Shen inadvertently used a little too much strength. Shi Luo covered Yu Suiâs face and Yu Sui couldnât breathe at all. Yu Sui didnât struggle even a bit. He looked at Shi Luo tenderly and didnât move a single muscle.
Shi Luo had no choice but to let go of Yu Sui. During a moment of inattentiveness, Yu Sui embraced him into his arms and tucked them back under the quilt.
âOr...â Yu Sui kissed the side of Shi Luoâs face and lowered his voice, âYou can wait for a bit and while weâre doing something, you take a few nude photos of me while Iâm not paying attention?â
Shi Luoâs ears instantly flushed red. He growled lowly, âWhat would I take your nude photos for?â
âFor blackmail.â Yu Sui whispered in Shi Luoâs ear, âDoesnât everyone say that Iâm a slag man? And that I wouldnât do you right? Shi Shen, just how many times do I have to deceive before you learn to be vigilant towards me? Wouldnât it be better to have something that you could use against me? If I ever let you down in the future, you can take my photo and...â
âShut up.â Shi Luo interrupted Yu Sui. And after a pause, he said, incomprehensibly, âAre you crazy? What if I first become unfaithful to you in the future? What if I take a photo to extort you for money? Hundreds of millions of net worth! Donât you want that anymore?!â
Yu Sui smiled, âSo fierce? Extort...In the first place, I owe you. If we really break up, I would give you whatever you want. Iâd be happy to do so.â
âBah!â Shi Luo was teased and coaxed by Yu Sui into feeling sweet but also choked up. Reaching the end of his forbearance, he bit down on Yu Suiâs arm. âHave you got anything else to say?â
Yu Sui was aware that he had made an indiscreet remark and said hurriedly, âI was the one blurting out nonsense.â
âMoreover.â Shi Luo frowned, âWho is it whoâs worried that you arenât going to treat me right? What do you mean that I have to be vigilant?â
Yu Sui paused and said, âWait...â
Yu Sui changed his position and picked up his mobile phone. After unlocking it, he opened his Weibo private message and handed it to Shi Luo. He smiled, âSee for yourself.â
Shi Luo took Yu Suiâs phone and looked downââ
[QAQ, Yu Shen! Was what you said in the interview true? Are you really in a relationship? Since when? ã
[Whisper, I have liked you for so many years but you already had someone you were dating and didnât say anything. Crying to death...]
[Is it someone from the industry or from outside the industry? Is it one of the female announcers for the competitions? Listen to jie jie. Donât go dating outsiders. They simply wonât understand your achievements or your hard work! ã
âNot those ones...â Yu Sui glanced at it and couldnât help laughing. He took his mobile phone, filtered the messages to show private messages from non-followers and handed it back to Shi Luo, âThese people didnât even follow me. Theyâre basically just your own fans. Look at this. ...â
Shi Luo took the phone again and read one by oneââ
[Evil doesnât even check his main account. Heâs not doing a live broadcast either. I want to ask but thereâs nowhere to ask. I am cautiously and solemnly asking for confirmation. That crazy and no good account... is that really our Evil? I donât believe it! ! ! ã
[Yu Shen, that account really belongs to our Shi Zai? Has our Shi Luo been bitten by your love bug?! Has he gone crazy?! ! ! ã
[Stop beating about the bush! Are you two really together? ã
[I should kill you! I knew there was something fishy when he stubbornly insisted on joining your team!! ! Damn it! Why! ã
[Iâm sorry, Yu Shen. I scolded you because I was feeling too emotional. Iâm sorry. Please be good to Evil, he never accepts gifts from the fans. We want to give him something he would like but every time we ask he would just say that there isnât anything he likes. He likes you so much... you should be worthy of it. ã
[It seems that itâs already been settled. I will respect Shi Luo Xuanshouâs choice and I still like Shi Luo Xuanshou. Please be sure to be good to him. I already guessed it earlier. He really has always liked you. ã
[Be good to Evil. Heâs been waiting for you for two years...]
[Please be good to Shi Zai. I have liked him for so long. Everyone sincerely hopes Shi Zai is well and I wish him happiness. ã
[No offense, but everyone says youâre a slag man. TT, please donât slag Shi Zai. ã
[In the future, I will be your fan too. Please donât be unworthy of our Shi Shen, okay? ã
[Iâm very sorry that I went along with everyone and sprayed you when I didnât know the truth. Iâm sorry, Iâm sorry, Iâm sorry. Please be good to Shi Luo. He has never ever sprayed you. ã
[This is a humble request from one of Shi Shenâs heartbroken girlfriend fans. Please be kind to Shi Shen. Old fans know that Shi Shen is actually a person who is cold on the outside but warm in the inside. He has always been good to us fans. Before, some outsiders who didnât understand e-sports scolded us, saying we were brainless celebrity worshippers. They said a lot of really offensive things. Those were some really dirty words and we didnât know how spray back. Most of the fans are girls and we couldnât open our mouths... It was Shi Shen who said that he could spray too and he spent the whole night spraying those people for us. Although he normally doesnât interact much with us, everyone knows that he really is a good person. ã
Shi Luo moved his lips and wanted to reply. Remembering that this was Yu Suiâs official account, he refrained from replying.
Yu Sui saw with a glance what Shi Luo wanted to do and he said generously, âJust reply as you wish. If you donât want people to know itâs you, you can just pretend to be me.â
âThen how...â Shi Luo looked at the private messages for a while and then let out a long sigh. He was embarrassed to say anything and after feeling awkward for a long time, said, âEveryoneâs saying youâre a slag man... You should... reflect... â
Yu Sui said easily, âI have reflected on it and have decided to let you take my photo as a blackmail material. Arenât you going to take the photo?â
âNo.â Shi Luo frowned, âIn case someone sees it...I would be the one who would suffer a loss.â
Yu Sui chuckled lightly.
This was actually the situation that Yu Sui wanted. He himself was indifferent about it but he hoped that Shi Luo could bless the fans who had accompanied him all the way.
It would be too hypocritical to say this and Yu Sui found it hard to speak out knowing that Shi Luo would also be embarrassed to listen. Everything fell within things that wonât be said.
âIâm not going to look anymore. Iâm really going to lose face if I keep reading.â Shi Luo rubbed the corner of his eyes, âI...Can I look at my side account? Iâll be careful not to like.â
Yu Sui nodded, âAs you wish.â
Shi Luo quit Yu Suiâs private messaging interface and after doing ample mental preparation, he narrowed his eyes and carefully clicked open his side account.
The usually suffocating foul, filthy and insulting private messages could actually be so warm. This side account of his, the main venue of all this... maybe the atmosphere in his side account could also be warm and harmonious?
Carrying with him a bit of anticipation, Shi Luo clicked on the comments section of his Weibo side account -â
[We already know that you are not Shi Shen. Come out! Post a few more! ã
[We already know that you are not Shi Shen. Come out! Post a few more! ã
[We already know that you are not Shi Shen. Come out! Post a few more! ã
Taking it all in, the comments from top to bottom, were all a copy-paste of this comment urging him to make a new post.
Shi Luo closed his eyes in pain. The fansâ pretending skills...were really good.
