The National Sweetheart Livestreamer Is A Pro! Chapter 170

“I’m very angry, all of you, don’t plead on his behalf.

“You should pay regard to the status of its master in beating a dog, I won’t hold my tongue.

“If I see any other marketing account trying to start things, I will directly make him a goner with a lawyer’s letter. To be honest with all of you, the club doesn’t have much of anything else but there’s no lack of lawyer’s letters.”

“… Stop rattling on, quickly shut the h.e.l.l up.”

“Don’t be arrogant.”

[OhmyG.o.d I’m dying of laughter HAHAHAHAHAHA! What kind of angels among the devils are these two?]

[Choking warning from ahead: Mix’s new team dictator is online.]

[Don’t worry Fi-G.o.d, I won’t let you suffer for nothing!]

Mo Huaifeng threw a few glances at the screen, when he found there weren’t any other questions, and there wasn’t much left of the mental draft that he had prepared previously, he just turned off the livestream.

The living room instantly quieted.

The few others were all in the training room. Mo Huaifeng covered up his laptop, then pinched Ji Zhiyao’s thigh, his expression intentionally intimidating. “So mischievous?”

“Don’t spout nonsense, I wasn’t!” Ji Zhiyao denied stoutly. “It’s because you were too talkative today and it scared me, my response is usually very speedy. So how many days worth of talk did you expend tonight?”

“I’ll beat you up later. Give me a gla.s.s of water first.”

“Okay okay.” Ji Zhiyao hurriedly poured a gla.s.s of water for Mo Huaifeng, handing it over in humble reverence. “Please have a drink, have a drink.”

Mo Huaifeng downed half a gla.s.s in one gulp then sighed contentedly.

Ji Zhiyao hesitated for a moment and said, “Actually, it’s useless. No amount of explaining will do, there will always be people who pretend that they did not hear.”

“Those have nothing to do with me.”

Ji Zhiyao was stunned and happened to meet the look in Mo Huaifeng’s eyes. Very neutral, but also very warm, it was completely impossible to describe that feeling. With a stir, his neck stretched forward forcefully and he bit onto Mo Huaifeng’s lips.

Mo Huaifeng was also stunned. Ji Zhiyao couldn’t help but became even happier after seeing his dazed look and grinned. “It is a reward that I grant you, aren’t you going to kneel and thank me?”

Mo Huaifeng made a “heh” sound. “Why, are you thinking of sleeping with your fan?”

Ji Zhiyao promptly cowered into a heap. “Don’t spout nonsense! I’m so mannerly, how is it possible that I will do such a thing?”

“If you won’t, let me do it.”

His ears were entirely red because of this person who was full of amorous words and directly picked up a cus.h.i.+on and threw it at Mo Huaifeng. “Don’t even think about it!”

Mo Huaifeng held in forehead in speechlessness, appearing extremely helpless. Hence Ji Zhiyao was even more delighted, with both hands on his waist, he looked like a scoundrel realizing his ambition as he said smugly, “Look how awesome I am now, standing akimbo.”

He gave two long cackles into the air, then, with an accidental sweep of his gaze, realized that the door to the training room had opened. At the door stood a total of five teammates along with one stats a.n.a.lyzer, every one of them looked perplexed.

Ji Zhiyao exclaimed, “What the f*ck when did you guys come out? Why is there no sound when you walk?”

With that he stiffened, instinctively looking towards Mo Huaifeng’s lips that had just been nibbled by him, there were even teeth marks on them.

“It’s not what you guys think it is!

Even he himself did not believe those words that he just said.

Ji Zhiyao directly hugged himself and sobbed, deciding to d.a.m.n the consequences. “That’s right. It is just as how all you imagined Captain and I are together. Your daddy the idol of the eSports scene is now mine. You guys can scold and hit as you wish but I absolutely will not return Captain back to you guys again!”

The others stared.

Mo Huaifeng suddenly started to laugh softly, the sound of his laughter gradually becoming louder.

Ji Zhiyao was confused. “Captain what are you laughing at?”

Mo Huaifeng still laughed and did not say anything.

Nuo suddenly spoke up, “Actually we only saw you smas.h.i.+ng the cus.h.i.+on on Captain, that expression was to convey our admiration.”

“Yet you revealed everything of your own accord.”

Nuo looked very serious now. “Now it’s not just a matter of admiring you, should we call you h.o.m.o or sister-in-law?”

Ji Zhiyao dropped to his knees.

…

Previously Ji Zhiyao was still worried that once the news of his gay relations.h.i.+p of Mo Huaifeng was made known to their teammates, they would be discriminated or criticized. He’d even mentally prepared himself to be beaten up. Yet the facts had proven, from how the others calmed down very quickly after witnessing that, then kept asking for them to treat a meal, it seemed that Mo Huaifeng’s worth in their heart was only equated to the amount of food that he could be exchanged for.

Though it doesn’t sound as pleasant, Ji Zhiyao had sighed in relief and happily took on the responsibility of buying a meal.

All of Mix came to the palace cuisine restaurant again.

Before the dishes were served, the beers and drinks came first. Ji Zhiyao sat beside Mo Huaifeng and opened up both of their cutlery and gla.s.ses, then Mo Huaifeng took them and poured water to rinse the gla.s.ses… Heng, his expression like he had experienced many vicissitudes of life after looking at them for a while said, “In the past, I always naively thought that this was fatherly love. Now I feel that I was simply silly, pure and sweet.”

Nuo coughed. “Silly is fine, but forget about pure and sweet. Doesn’t your conscience hurt when you say these two words?”

“Go away!”

The stats a.n.a.lyzer chimed in, “Full of gayness, hurts the eyes.”

Yuan Wei called out, “The heavens finally saw me, there is finally someone who can understand how I feel! Some time ago, I was the only one who knew, I was force-fed their PDA everyday by these two people! It was simply terrible!”

Ji Zhiyao was suddenly a little embarra.s.sed from being talked about and straightened his neck, saying stubbornly, “If you guys are jealous you can go find someone yourselves. We have many people in our team, it is possible to produce and market all by ourselves.”

Mo Huaifeng agreed. “Mm. I hereby express on behalf of the entire club: There will be absolutely no objections.”

K and Xiaofei who were the closest unexpectedly looked into each other’s eyes, then both of them began to s.h.i.+ver. K quickly said, “Forget it, forget it, I realized that I still prefer soft, pretty ladies.”

Ji Zhiyao mocked, “Shallow!”

Mo Huaifeng joined in, “Men aren’t hard too.”

The others exclaimed at once, “Oh d.a.m.n!”

Ji Zhiyao hastily spluttered, “d.a.m.n it Mo Huaifeng, you shut up!”

Nuo still wanted to say something more, when the door was pushed open from the outside, he promptly sealed his mouth.

The inside of the room quietened down as if a pause b.u.t.ton had been pressed, everyone stared as the server put up the food, making the server extremely nervous, and hurriedly left the room after serving all the dishes.

When the server left, Yuan Wei said, “About this matter, we’ll all help to keep it a secret.”

The others all agreed.

That they could accept such a relations.h.i.+p, did not mean that everyone was able to. If this matter was exposed, who knew what kind of words those keyboard warriors would use to describe their battleteam.

They’d yet to compete in the international league, if Captain and Noh.o.m.o chose not to announce it, it must be because they didn’t want to affect the compet.i.tion.

Two dishes had been served, everyone picked up their chopsticks and dug in.

An hour later, everyone was extremely stuffed and boarded the van to return to the base. As almost everyone had drank alcohol, and the stats a.n.a.lyzer was even dead drunk, Mo Huaifeng decided with a wave of his hand and directly announced that they could skip training for tonight.

Hence Ji Zhiyao went upstairs, entered his room and dropped into his sofa.

He had drank some and was too lazy to move even one bit. He simply curled into a ball and held his phone, scrolling through Weibo.

The outcome of Mo Huaifeng turning on his livestream was the same as he had imagined, mixed opinions. Both of their fans were mostly bound by a common hatred for the same enemy, agreeing on going for the vile marketing accounts, nipping each one that they caught. But there were still many brainless haters or those who couldn’t accept the livestream and had to come add a kick to their side, all their words were especially nasty.

Ji Zhiyao opened the Weibo comments, preparing to read everything that the haters said from top to bottom, taking it all as a training for his own cultivation. Yet he hadn’t gone far when he so infuriated that he threw his phone.

Did these people consume poison? Their words were so malicious.

He was his fault for punching some and he had never thought of denying it, but must these people drag Mo Huaifeng into it too.

Ji Zhiyao was sulky for a while, then stood up and kicked his phone that was beside the sofa even more under the sofa and went to shower.

Out of sight and out of mind. After they take down the champions.h.i.+p t.i.tle this weekend, he’ll then switch to his alternate account and rebut every single one of this bunch.

…

Sat.u.r.day, 2 PM in the afternoon, the national qualifiers officially began. The cheers in the gymnasium were much louder than any time previously.

Before they went on, Xiao who chose to be discharged today b.u.mped Ji Zhiyao’s shoulder. “All the best Noh.o.m.o.”

Ji Zhiyao smiled as he nodded. “Don’t worry Brother Xiao, wait for me to carry you to the international league.”

With that, he held a smile on the corner of his lips and looked right towards the partic.i.p.ants’ pa.s.sageway.

Ji Zhiyao, you can do it.

Yet when he walked into the partic.i.p.ants’ pa.s.sageway, Ji Zhiyao then realized, he wasn’t as calm as he had imagined.

Once they stepped out of the entrance, they faced overwhelming cheers and shouts, the howling sounds almost overturned the roof of the gymnasium. Before he took his seat, Ji Zhiyao’s entire mind was filled with very despondent thoughts like “If we lose the compet.i.tion later will I be leaving the gymnasium horizontally?”

Stats a.n.a.lyzers were allowed to aid in the segment of the selection of champions in the finals, he stood at the back and saw that Ji Zhiyao was constantly s.h.i.+vering and s.h.i.+vering and quickly rolled up his notebook to give him a smack on his head. “Noh.o.m.o sober up, it’s not like you have never played against Tall Boots why are you so nervous?”

“I did, but I lost.”

“So you have to be more careful today! If you are an ATM for the opponents today, I will definitely give you a taste of famous traditional Chinese dishes.”

“Stir fried bamboo rhizome with meat?” ¹

“Not completely right, it’s stir fried bamboo rhizome with meat personally made by Captain. Pull your pants down and whip you with a little leather belt.”

The stats a.n.a.lyzer was too visual with his words, Ji Zhiyao instantly felt his blood pressure surge and there was a gradual trend of blood rus.h.i.+ng into his brain. Mo Huaifeng “tsk-ed”. “Just talk normally when you are talking, why are you going dirty?”

The corner of Heng’s lips twitched. “But Captain, you’re obviously looking forward to it keenly.”

Ji Zhiyao suddenly snorted out loud.

His nervousness completely dissipated after this banter. He tugged at the corner of his lips and looked towards the opposite through the gaps between the computers, saying as he raised his brows. “Don’t worry, I will work hard. Even if I can’t carry, don’t we still have Captain to take us to the win?”

Nuo agreed. “Though it’s a little shameless to say that, but there’s nothing wrong. Our daddy is forever daddy.”

The countdown on the electronic screen in the gymnasium finally entered the last ten seconds. All at once, the entire gymnasium was filled with deafening cheers from the audience.

“Ten!”

“Nine!”

“Eight!”

“Seven!”

“Six!”

“Five!”

“Four!”

“Three!”

“Two!”

“One!”

“I announce, eSports event Heroes China National Qualifiers, officially begins!”

“Partic.i.p.ants of the finals, red team, China, Mix Battleteam and blue team, China, Tall Boots Battleteam. We’ll be announcing the competing system, it is three victories out of five games. The first battleteam to attain victory in three matches will win and become the champion of the national qualifiers and will be elected by the Chinese eSports a.s.sociation to directly enter the international league.”

“The first match begins, would both teams please select your champions!”

Hearing the commentator fervently announcing the start of the compet.i.tion and watching the game interface enter into the selection of champions, Ji Zhiyao had instead calmed down, only the sound of mouses clicking were left by his ear.

The stats a.n.a.lyzer spoke in a low voice behind them, helping them to allocate their champions lineup. “Do you guys want to pick more conservative champions, take down the first match before anything else, we’ll be more a.s.sured later on.”

Everyone indicated their agreement and picked balanced champions that they were respectively more skilled in.

Both teams had all locked in their champions, the screen showed the countdown, when it reach “1”, they entered the loaded interface, the match officially began.

Because they had suffered a setback right in the last minute of the game the previous time, Ji Zhiyao was extremely focused this time, covering both the big and mini map, afraid that he missed out one bit of action.

He glanced opposite and was suddenly inspired. “Heng, Captain, you guys take the first sp.a.w.n of the red and blue buffs and go to your lanes as daddies. I’ll stay wretched for now and develop when the second wave sp.a.w.ns.”

Heng was delighted. “This idea is not bad. After I get my buff, I’ll go mess with Ye-G.o.d that mutt.”

Mo Huaifeng made an “mm” sound. “Then you beware of Lan Guang.”

Hence Ji Zhiyao covered Heng as he moved towards the blue buff, yet just as they arrived outside the cave of the blue buff, a figure suddenly dashed through the bushes. Heng shrieked, “Oh my G.o.d! Someone has come to counter-jungle!”

Ji Zhiyao: “Well isn’t it just one person, I’m right behind you, what are you afraid of?”

Heng: “You are right. Did you catch who it was?”

Ji Zhiyao: “Nope. It’s either Lan Guang or Ye-G.o.d. Take two steps forward to bait him.”

Heng was very reluctant but still walked out as if he knew nothing, he had just taken a step forward, the person hiding in the bush leaped out.

It was Xiaoye who came to counter-jungle.

Heng and Xiaoye fought directly, Ji Zhiyao waited for a while more, and ensured that there weren’t other players appearing, thus he s.h.i.+fted forward by two steps and pounced onto Xiaoye and took away the remaining half of his life.

First blood.

Ji Zhiyao’s pupils were slightly diluted. He inhaled deeply, bottled up his agitation from having drawn first blood and plunged into the jungle.

Heng muttered behind, “I worked so hard and didn’t even get a sip of the soup!”

Ji Zhiyao: “Come over, I’ll help you take the blue buff, you can harvest directly.”

Heng: “Alright then, I shall reluctantly forgive you.”

Ji Zhiyao: “Thank you.”

Nuo: “Can the both of you not be so dramatic? Can’t you see that my Captain’s face is already as dark as the bottom of a pot?”

Mo Huaifeng cooperatively sneered, then said, “Stop making so much noise when you can fight, quickly finish this match, we’ll change champions for the next.”
