Chapter 18: Old Wei, you’re really a man with deep sins

translator: xiin

Bai Cai watched the clip from the live stream and tsked, “Old Wei, you’re really a man with deep sins.”

The video clip contained over ten professional players. Other than the top three, the rest were all newer players and even included Xia Dan and the rest.

Xia Dan was good at putting on an act. He even wiped off a tear and cried, “To be honest, the Grandmaster was idle a few days ago, and Old Yu and I were both summoned to play a full six hours of wheel wars.”

Yu Fei just so happened to be in a doubles game with him and followed up with, “Can you guys imagine? The sour yet refreshing feeling of your Egg God’s famous hero being stomped on and smeared into the ground.”

Xia Dan gave as good as he got, “Nah, your Fish God is a high and lofty jungler king, but he was slapped in the face by Grandmaster’s eight light arcs, papapa.”

Mm. These two mutually dragged each other down, and the video became even more lively!

The audience caught the key point, “Why was Grandmaster so idle?”

Xia Dan: “This can’t be said…”

Yu Fei: “Secret…”

The next video clip showed a real man who really dared to say it. Moonlit sneered, “He heard about the training match between Close and Gary.”

Fans: “???”

Moonlit spoke expressionlessly, “In ‘19, Close won the championship. He finished watching the live broadcast, then found me and Eurostar to solo for eight hours.” It was now 2021. In 2019, Moonlit and Eurostar hadn’t been in the starting lineups of their teams.

The scrolling comments exploded, “Damn damn damn! He really got caught up in it!”

The next clip cut back to the smiling Eurostar, “Yes, I switched to the bottom lane after that.”

When they heard the obsession contained within these words, the passersby couldn’t help but feel heartache!

What had their Euro God gone through during those eight hours?!

Wei Xiao also saw this video clip. He watched it twice, then called Bai Cai, “What’s the matter with these guys? They’re all star players. Can’t they feel some burden of their responsibility as idols?”

What kind of things had they said? A group of professional players had been bullied by a casual player. How could they just talk about it so frankly!

Bai Cai laughed, “A single person who has been abused still needs to care about having face, but a group of people who’ve been abused can get excited about it as a group!”

“What’s more, they know that you’re going to play professionally. Shouldn’t they lay down a good foundation for it and wash away their shame?”

Wei Xiao froze, then immediately refuted it, “Who says I’m going to play professionally?!”

Bai Cai was surprised, “Ah, the captain didn’t invite you?”

Wei Xiao choked: He really had invited him.

Bai Cai: “F*ck, brother, you’re really amazing. You rejected the great demon king twice. You’re really something else and can’t be considered an ordinary person.”

Wei Xiao felt a little guilty for some reason, “Don’t talk randomly about things that didn’t happen.”

Bai Cai: “No way, you two stayed in one room together for a few hours, and the captain didn’t do anything to you?”

Wei Xiao was quiet for a moment, “Old Bai, I suspect you’re driving, and I even have evidence.”

Bai Cai: “The driver sees the car. Brother Xiao, it’s time for you to wash your mind.”

Wei Xiao was too lazy to continue being pithy with him, “In short, you’re all overthinking it. I won’t become a professional gamer.”

Bai Cai’s words were accurate enough to draw blood, “Then what are you going on about?”

Wei Xiao paused.

Bai Cai wanted to strike while the iron was hot and poke at him again. Who could’ve known that this fellow would slap his thigh, “Right, as long as I don’t play professionally, the flames of their revenge won’t be able to burn me!”

Bei Cai: “Sigh…”

That wasn’t the point. He wanted Wei Xiao to see his own restless and eager professional player heart. But why was it that…

Wei Xiao: “Good brother, you’ve helped me see things clearly!”

Bai Cai: “……”

Wei Xiao: “In fact, if it’s like this, there’s no need to worry so much about it. Make an appointment with those star players later on; I think they’re quite looking forward to it. We can’t favor anyone more than anyone else.”

Bai Cai: “S C R A M!”

Wei Xiao: “Hm?”

Bai Cai: “Scram!”

Wei Xiao scrammed, but he came rolling back soon after, “Old Bai, I used to only know that you were shameless before, but I really never thought that you would be this shameless!”

Bai Cai’s head was hurting, “What’s the matter?”

Wei Xiao tossed him a screenshot, “This… this… give my eyes back to me!”

The screenshot showed Bai Cai’s Weibo message from this morning. Oh, it was the one he’d sent out from his Gossip Emperor alt account.

The content…

To be honest, Bai Cai felt that his own eyes hurt from looking at it, “Wei Xiao, there’s something wrong with you, right? What are you staring at my alt account for?”

Wei Xiao: “Do you think I want to? I was searching for my own gossip. Who could’ve known that I would see this sweetness between you and Close… sorry, I need to throw up.”

Wei Xiao didn’t follow Bai Cai’s alt account at all. He’d been carefully searching for One Lamp Grandmaster and trying to remember how many enemies he’d created. Who could’ve known that some craziness had pushed the famous Gossip Emperor in front of him after a certain related search?

The latest Weibo from the Gossip Emperor that had been posted just a short time ago, already had ten thousand comments and a surprisingly high level of popularity.

Wei Xiao glanced at it, then hugged the husky and fell into a daze.

––The great demon king of e-sports and his beloved little support wife.

The content burned Wei Xiao’s eyes even further. The Gossip Emperor had written a short paper with serious analysis on last night’s double queue crash.

The exact match where Bai Cai and Wei Xiao had double queued and crashed cars with Lu Feng and Ning Zhehan.

Lu Feng had killed Bai Cai 19 times, and the analysis claimed he was jealous.

Lu Feng failed to protect Ning Zhehan even once, and the analysis was that he’d been forced into teaming up with him.

Even kicking out Bai Cai and going to double queue with Wei Xiao at the end had an extra layer of explanation––

He was going to fight a solo match against his ‘rival’!

Wei Xiao’s goosebumps came out when he saw it, “Old Bai, you’re really a cruel man, and you’re really vicious to yourself…”

Nobody knew that the Gossip Emperor was Bai Cai, but Brother Cai had really sacrificed himself in spirit to satisfy everyone. It really made people want to shout––how shameless!

The corner of Bai Cai’s mouth twitched, “Do you think I wanted to post this?!”

Wei Xiao: “Everything is for the sake of traffic. Old Bai, making this money really hasn’t been easy for you.”

Bai Cai: “Shit!”

He opened up the Gossip Emperor account’s private messages and began to crazily take a series of screenshots, “Look, take a good look. Yesterday, I received 800 private messages. 700 of them are YY about you and God Lu!”

He’d been kind enough to help divert the netizens’ attention, but this guy didn’t even appreciate it!

Wei Xiao was rendered speechless by this screenshot.

Compared with the private messages from little sisters, the little articles sent to the Gossip Emperor were even clearer than still water.

Bai Cai raged, “Get it?”

Wei Xiao: “……”

Bai Cai rolled his eyes, “Laozi is protecting you, yet you’re not even grateful. You’re heartless…”

“No…” Wei Xiao asked this very seriously, “Why am I the shou?”

Bai Cai: “Ah?”

Wei Xiao was very dissatisfied, “Why do they all think that I’m the shou? Am I not powerful? Am I not amazing? Am I not Alpha-like?”

Bai Cai: “………”

Wei Xiao evaluated himself, “Oh, I seem to be shorter than Close, but I could still grow taller by at least another 3 centimeters. 185cm shouldn’t be a problem. Umm… it seems that that’s still shorter than Close…”

Bai Cai: “Old Wei.”

Wei Xiao: “Hm?”

Bai Cai: “Go and get lost ahhhhhhhhhh!!!”

There was a click as he hung up.

Why…

What kind of sins had he, Bai Cai, committed for him to end up as brothers with this crazy person!?

After irritating Bai Cai, Wei Xiao’s spirit was refreshed, and he got out of bed to walk the dog.

It was very cold at the end of January. Wei Xiao didn’t wear much, but the husky still caused him to work up a sweat.

He’d just returned home when his cell phone rang.

This was a sound effect from the accompanying player platform. Wei Xiao took out his cell phone and took a look. Indeed, it was his boss.

LU: “There?”

Wei Xiao directly sent over a voice message, “I’m almost home.” He was a little breathless from running.

LU paused for a moment, “Exercising?”

Wei Xiao: “Walking the dog counts, right?!”

Wei Xiao: “Boss, wait a moment. I’m going to take a shower first.”

LU: “No rush.”

Wei Xiao washed up, and looked in the mirror after he finished wiping himself down.

Was 182cm considered short? Why was he the shou?

Oh…

Abdominal muscles.

Tsk. Wei Xiao thought of Lu Feng’s figure and was a little sour, “How could there be an internet addict like that? How unqualified!”

After pulling on clothes, Wei Xiao went out and picked up his phone, “Boss?”

LU: “Here.”

Wei Xiao: “I’m logging on.”

The low rank bracket was too easy for Wei Xiao. He could play casually, easily put in some amazing plays, and make the opposite side shout daddy.

After playing about seven or eight games together, the two became more and more familiar with each other.

Wei Xiao was the type of person who had more to say the more familiar he was with someone. At first, he was very serious as he explained general things about the game, but he slowly began to show off.

“See, if this skill is linked well, you can kill all the way to the other team’s base in one go.”

“Look at this sinister strike of mine, isn’t it badass?!”

“To be honest, most professional players can’t do this.”

After boasting more and becoming more familiar, LU typed, “You’re very powerful.”

Wei Xiao: “So-so. It’s still a little worse than the world’s number one.”

The corner of Lu Feng’s lips curved slightly, and he asked, “If you’re so strong, why don’t you play professionally?”

Wei Xiao paused.

LU: “There’s more future in playing professionally than in being an accompanying player.”

If anyone else had asked him this question, even if it was Bai Cai, Wei Xiao would simply interrupt with another topic and move past it. He definitely wouldn’t say what he felt in his heart.

However, LU wasn’t someone from the professional circle. He was just an ordinary player, one who’d taken good care of him and was both kind and generous.

Wei Xiao felt quite fond of him and didn’t mind telling him the truth. “You might not believe it if I tell you, but I was about to sign a contract two years ago. I wanted to earn money to take my grandma around the world. Yet as a result…”

Lu Feng was a little shocked.

Wei Xiao: “My grandma heard that I wanted to play professionally and almost beat me into pieces!”

Lu Feng: “It’s true that the older generation doesn’t have an understanding of e-sports.”

Wei Xiao joked, “I grew up with my grandma and in my entire life, she’s the only one I’m scared of. The things she doesn’t let me do are things I won’t do, and besides, playing professionally is really annoying. It’s stressful and tiring. Don’t just look at how much money can be earned; there’s no time to even spend the money, and it’s useless to earn more.”

Just then, the two of them entered a new game. Lu Feng didn’t say anything else.

Wei Xiao was reminded of his grandma, and his nose ached a little.

He pulled over the husky and rubbed its fur a few times before managing to hold back his tears.

The two of them queued for another three or four games, before Lu Feng said, “I have something to do here, I’ll log off first.”

After playing for so long, Wei Xiao’s mood had already recovered long ago. He was very agreeable, “’Kay!”

The boss had gone offline, so Wei Xiao switched to his main account and was just about to start queuing for games when a WeChat message popped up.

Close: “Come double queue?”

Wei Xiao’s eyes brightened. He immediately quit his individual queue and replied, “Yes!”

Close: “Have you eaten?”

Wei Xiao: “Not yet.”

Close asked casually, “Just woke up?”

Wei Xiao: “Been up for a while. I was accompanying the boss…”

He’d just typed out these three words when he felt that it wasn’t quite right.

Don’t judge him on how he’d been an accompanying player for so long. He’d really never accompanied a proper boss before. He’d previously made all of his money by abusing professional players.

One Lamp Grandmaster’s reputation was actually quite cool…

Wei Xiao was usually very shameless, but he felt an unusual sense of care when dealing with Close.

He changed his tone, “Been up for a while. I played a few matches with my girlfriend.”

After sending it out, Wei Xiao complimented himself: Laozi was really damn smart. Take a look at this style of being a life winner, a really cool guy!
