Chapter 107 Unable to Suppress Anger

Qingye's calm words left Ji Wanqing feeling uneasy. She knew that her older brother Qingye was choosing to endure it because he didn't want to put her in a difficult position.

But the frustration of being targeted yet having to consider the bigger picture made her feel even worse than if she were the one being wronged.

My heart aches for Qingtian; she's caught in the middle, facing a difficult situation.

I really want to slap them twice! How dare they make things difficult for Qing Tian and Zi Shen!

Ji Wanqing took a deep breath, trying to suppress the discomfort in her heart, and clicked to start matching.

She secretly decided that she must be more focused this time and help Qingye as much as possible to prevent the two of them from deliberately targeting her again.

Qingye remained calm and immediately locked onto an unpopular tank jungler.

【Huh? Lava Giant jungler?】

[Is this hero... any good?]

[Is Zaishen up to his old tricks again?]

Even Ji Wanqing was somewhat surprised, "Brother Qingye, this..."

"It's okay, you can play." Qingye's tone carried a reassuring certainty.

At the start of the game, Qingye changed his strategy.

He no longer engages in aggressive invasions, but focuses on farming and counter-ganking. This tank jungler doesn't deal much damage in the early game, but is extremely durable. However, he doesn't have his ultimate's crowd control abilities until level 6, so he can only focus on farming as quickly as possible.

Expired Relationship and Crab Meat seemed to think that Qingye was not doing well in this game, so they started to return to the state they were in in the first game, pushing the lane aggressively and calling for the jungler.

"Jungler, come bot, we can gank."

"Jungler, the enemy doesn't have Flash, come gank."

Qingye marked his ultimate skill's cooldown time and said succinctly, "No ultimate yet, wait."

However, the bot lane duo seemed oblivious to this and still chose to force a trade, only to be caught out by the enemy jungler and both died.

"What are you doing, jungler? Why aren't you coming?" Crab Meat complained again and started criticizing Qingye.

Ji Wanqing frowned deeply, barely suppressing the urge to speak up and retort.

She shifted her focus back to her mid lane, concentrating more on laning and observing the map.

"Brother Qingye, you can focus on farming. I'll try my best to keep an eye on the enemy mid and jungle," she said to Qingye in the voice chat.

"Okay." Qingye's reply was still brief, but he seemed happy because of Ji Wanqing's words, and there was no hint of resentment in his voice.

Qingye ignored the questioning from the bottom laner and just quietly farmed the jungle. Then, seizing the opportunity when the enemy jungler appeared in the bottom lane, he cooperated with the random top laner to easily kill the enemy top laner and take the first Rift Herald.

He placed the Vanguard directly in the top lane, giving the random top laner a huge advantage.

[Nakano is still the most reliable!]

Let's just pretend those two in the bot lane don't exist!

[The sunny weather is so warm; I've been trying my best to cooperate with Zai Shen.]

However, the tree may wish to remain still, but the wind will not cease.

Before the mid-game dragon fight, Ji Wanqing and Qingye arrived early to set up vision and kept sending signals to request a regroup.

The top laner arrived quickly, but the bot lane duo were still lingering near the bottom lane's second turret, far from the dragon pit, clearing the non-urgent minion wave.

"Can the bot lane come? We're about to have a team fight." Ji Wanqing couldn't help but remind them in the voice chat, her tone tinged with urgency.

"Wait a minute, right away." The expired relationship gave a perfunctory reply.

Just then, the opposing team's five players gathered first and immediately attacked the dragon.

The jungler, Qingye, positioned himself at the front, attempting to disrupt and contest the objective, while Ji Wanqing and the top laner immediately followed up with damage output.

The situation instantly became critical. With the dragon's health nearing its limit, Qingye seized the opportunity and delivered a precise Smite.

The Red Team has slain the dragon!

"I got it!" Ji Wanqing exclaimed in surprise, her tense nerves relaxing slightly.

However, Qingye, who secured the dragon, was positioned too deep and was instantly focused down by all five enemy players. Ji Wanqing and the top laner tried desperately to save him, but their damage output was insufficient, and they could only watch helplessly as Qingye died.

The bottom lane duo finally arrived after the team fight ended, managing to secure two kills on low-health opponents.

"Jungler, don't feed! Can't we wait until we get there to fight?"

Crab Meat was happily racking up kills with the ADC while shouting in the voice chat.

The expired relationship expert casually added, "Take it easy, we can win."

Hearing this familiar accusation, Ji Wanqing felt a surge of anger rise up again.

She couldn't help but retort in the voice chat, her tone filled with suppressed anger, "They clearly knew they were going to steal the dragon, and they gave the signal beforehand but didn't come. How can you blame the jungler for that?"

Her voice trembled slightly with anger. She knew that as a companion, she shouldn't confront the boss so directly, but she simply couldn't bear to see Qingye being wrongly accused like this.

Kiyono paused for a moment, then spoke, her voice calm and reassuring, "Qingtian, it's okay, let's focus on our own game."

His calmness slightly extinguished Ji Wanqing's anger, but it also made her feel even more sorry for his situation. He clearly possessed top-notch strength, yet he had to suffer such humiliation here.

All of this was because she simply couldn't accept playing games with him.

Just then, the opportunity arose.

The enemy jungler reappeared in the bottom lane. After clearing the jungle, he determined that there should be teammates nearby, and he promptly asked, "Sunny, can you come?"

"Yes!" Ji Wanqing didn't hesitate and immediately abandoned a wave of minions that was about to reach the tower, heading straight for the bottom lane.

Seeing Ji Wanqing approach, Qingye made the first move.

Just as he guessed, the opposing team's teammates were indeed in the nearby jungle, and their ADC and support immediately rushed over to provide support.

Fortunately, Ji Wanqing arrived at this moment. With the help of Qingye's control, she used a combo to kill the enemy ADC and easily took down three of their enemies.

"Nice!" Ji Wanqing felt her frustration dissipate somewhat.

[Naka and Jungle Collaboration! It has to be you two!]

[Tears welled up in my eyes; true friendship is revealed in times of adversity!]

Those two lousy bot laners don't deserve to win!

For the rest of the time, Ji Wanqing followed Qingye's pace, and wherever Qingye went, her gaze followed.

If Kiyono initiates a team fight, she will definitely follow up with crowd control immediately.

Kiyono also protected her, allowing her to comfortably unleash her skills.

Although his jungle stats weren't as impressive as in the previous game, his teamwork with Ji Wanqing became more and more seamless each time.

Several crucial resource groups were won thanks to the perfect coordination and control between Ji Wanqing and Qingye, as well as Qingye's unwavering protection.

Finally, when the opponent's crystal exploded, Ji Wanqing let out a long sigh of relief.

This victory was so hard-won, yet so satisfying.

On the results screen, Ji Wanqing became the MVP this time.

Back in the team-up interface, the expired relationship popped up again.

"Jungler, don't pick such a weak champion next time, it's hard to carry the game."

Ji Wanqing's hard-won sense of relief was immediately ignited by his words.

This time, she didn't choose to continue to tolerate it and immediately turned on her microphone, her voice filled with barely suppressed anger.

"Expired boss! Everyone knows who the problem is! Qingye was targeted so much in the early game, did you guys offer any support? Did you even follow up with damage in team fights once? Is targeting your own teammates in a team-oriented game just too much?"

Her voice wasn't loud, but her tone was firm, carrying a protective air.
