Chapter 5 Sugar Bowl



Gu Yueshuang didn't have much stuff, so she moved quickly. When she finished packing, Lin Yanqiu and Xu Qing, who were in charge of shopping, and Zhou Yao and Qin Ye, who were in charge of walking the dog, had all returned.

After helping Gu Yueshuang move her things, Gu Yang went out again. He has been very busy recently, as he has to go through some official procedures and attend many meetings.

When Lin Yanqiu saw her coming downstairs, he was the first to greet her: "Please pack up, we are going to eat next door."

Gu Yueshuang: "Okay."

Xu Qing relayed a message in the WeChat group: "The coach said we'll have uniform fittings and final photos in two days, so we need to be ready. Oh, and we'll also have to send someone to the opening ceremony."

He raised his head and looked around, and finally his eyes fell on Gu Yueshuang: "Brother Shuang, you are a newcomer, why don't you show yourself?"

Zhou Yao immediately agreed: "I think it's possible. Brother Shuang is also good-looking. He can shock them with his looks."

After playing a training match last night and watching their team's double C duo queue, they were completely impressed by Gu Yueshuang's strength and started calling him Brother Shuang.

Having two or three winning games might be due to good luck, but having winning games all night can only mean strong strength. However, only Gu Yueshuang can treat a disadvantageous situation as a favorable one.

Gu Yueshuang wasn't interested in this kind of activity and casually asked, "Who would a normal team send?"

Lin Yanqiu: "Substitute."

Gu Yueshuang: “?”

Xu Qing added with a guilty conscience, "And the team pet! You know the team mascot, right?"

Gu Yueshuang glanced at him.

Xu Qing scratched his head in frustration, "We don't have any substitutes on our team... and we'll probably have to go to the opening ceremony. It doesn't matter who goes, so why not let the good-looking ones show up?"

Gu Yueshuang shifted the blame: "I think AD is also OK."

Lin Yanqiu raised an eyebrow and smoothly shifted the blame to someone else: "Let the silent ones go. After all, we're a new team, and we're easily tricked. The more we talk, the more mistakes we make. If we make a mistake on the first day, we might get scolded enough to retire or even disband."

Xu Qing nodded thoughtfully: "It seems so. I heard that Brother Shuang used to be a big troll. Let Brother Ye go."

Qin Ye, who was suddenly caught in the crossfire: "..."

Gu Yueshuang refused to admit it: "What are you talking about? I'm very civilized and have never been fined for swearing."

After washing their hands and packing up, the five of them went to the next door to eat.

Qin Ye seemed to be hesitant to speak, as if he was thinking of how to politely decline to attend the opening ceremony. After thinking for a long time without any result, he simply gave up and accepted the result.

Zhou Yao stared at Gu Yueshuang for a while, his face serious: "Indeed, you were fined for assaulting someone."

Gu Yueshuang: "Don't talk nonsense, just once."

Everyone: “?”

Is it true?

Zhou Yao: "I heard it twice. Once in the internet cafe, and once in the backstage."

Xu Qing silently took a step away: "I didn't mean to trick you, please don't hit me."

"It's a misunderstanding. Let me explain."

Gu Yueshuang tried hard to force a friendly smile, but because she was not very skilled, she looked even more ferocious.

Xu Qing trembled and hid behind Lin Yanqiu to avoid Gu Yueshuang's sight.

Gu Yueshuang: "I was fined only once. I was just surfing the internet at the internet cafe, and two people were fighting, so I went to stop them."

Zhou Yao: "Stop fighting?"

Gu Yueshuang nodded, not looking like she was lying at all. She continued confidently, "But those two men refused to listen to my advice. They weren't thinking straight, and their noise was giving me a headache. So I tried to sober them up."

Xu Qing: "...You wouldn't beat them both up, would you?"

Gu Yueshuang: "Have you heard that pain can make people sober?"

The German Shepherd guarding the house: "Woof!"

Everyone: “…”

Lin Yanqiu patted the German Shepherd's head and introduced Gu Yueshuang to it: "This is a new friend."

"Let it get familiar with the taste." He beckoned Gu Yueshuang over. "What about another time?"

Gu Yueshuang stared at the German Shepherd and passed the topic over: "Someone tried to persuade me to fix a match, but I beat him up."

Lin Yanqiu smiled and looked at Xu Qing: "You are safe for now. He won't beat you up just because your teammates betrayed you."

Gu Yueshuang was annoyed: "If you use the support to go solo again, I will get angry and open the microphone."

Xu Qing kept shouting, "It's unfair! It was Xiaoqiu who asked me to practice my courage!"

Gu Yueshuang's eyes flashed with a fierce look: "You, a support, are going to the top lane to practice your courage? I can help you practice your mental endurance, okay?"

Xu Qing shrank his neck and said, "No, every time I feel I can't win, I want to run away. But Xiaoqiu's minion line is the dignity of the AD. He would rather trade blood with the opponent than give up the minion line."

Gu Yueshuang: "And then you go and cheat others?"

Xu Qing: "No one else does. I only choose this when it's your turn... Others usually don't let me do this."

Gu Yueshuang: "..."

Gu Yueshuang was quiet before, but every time Xu Qing matched up with him, he would say, "My Tam/Anaconda are really good at singles, I don't believe you Frosts."

Since Gu Yueshuang didn't say anything, Xu Qing could just say with a smug look on his face, "He agreed, but he was just too embarrassed to praise me."

It works every time.

"I've gained a lot! My positioning is much better now than before!" Xu Qing was afraid that she would walk away, so he quickly explained and said flatteringly, "Let me tell you, Grandpa Lin's cooking is really delicious. You'll regret it if you don't eat it."

When Chef Lin saw Gu Yueshuang, he seemed to see through her at a glance and said with a smile: "Little baby is still growing, eat more."

"Hello, Grandpa Lin." Several people greeted him hurriedly.

"Okay." Chef Lin smiled kindly and took out a can of brown sugar from the cabinet and gave it to Gu Yueshuang. "It's a meeting gift. Drink it and you won't have a headache or stomachache."

Gu Yueshuang knew what was going on and accepted the brown sugar generously: "Thank you, Grandpa Lin."

Brown sugar doesn't have so many benefits. It's just that Grandpa Lin saw through her gender at a glance, and then, as an elder, showed kindness and said tactfully, "I know, but I will keep it a secret for you, so you don't have to worry about it."

Xu Qing complained that it was unfair: "Grandpa, why didn't I have a gift for meeting you?"

Old Master Lin looked at him and said, "You've gained five pounds in the three days since you came here. Isn't this my welcome gift to you?"

Xu Qing was stunned. How could it be calculated this way?

He rubbed his belly: "I'm growing too."

Zhou Yao complained: "I just focused on growing horizontally."

Gu Yueshuang was indeed in a much better mood when she saw the table full of delicious dishes. She said, "In fact, when I first saw Zhou Yao, I thought he was a robber. I was ready to call 120 and then beat him up."

Xu Qing wondered: "Shouldn't we call 110?"

Zhou Yao slapped Xu Qing on the head in frustration. "He wants to send me to the hospital! Who are we going to arrest by calling 110? Himself?"

It is winter now, and everyone is wrapped up tightly, so you can only tell whether they are fat or thin by their faces.

Xu Qing looked at her for a while and said, "You don't look like you can fight very well..."

Mr. Lin jokingly said, "You'll know if I can beat you if I try."

Xu Qing pursed his lips, ate his meal obediently, and said, "Since you said that, I guess he's quite good at fighting. You really can't judge a person by his appearance."

Lin Yanqiu sighed, "Indeed, Zhou Yao just looks fierce."

Xu Qingshun said: "Brother Shuang is just a cute guy."

After he said that, he realized that he was led into a trap by his own AD!

Xu Qing looked up at Gu Yueshuang cautiously, and only after seeing that she had no special reaction did he dare to eat with peace of mind.

After the meal, Gu Yueshuang took the initiative to help clear the plates and even wanted to help wash the dishes.

Mr. Lin smiled and said, "Go back and play. The hourly worker will come to clean up soon."

Gu Yueshuang was not polite and smiled: "Okay, thank you, old man."

Mr. Lin liked this little girl very much and said, "If you have anything you like to eat, just tell me. You're welcome."

"Yes."

Gu Yueshuang smiled.

After eating and drinking, the group slowly walked back to their base, turned on the computer and started today's training.

Lin Yanqiu sent a ranking invitation: "Do you want to play in a duo?"

Gu Yueshuang asked, "Do you have a trumpet?"

"Yes, what rank do you want?" Lin Yanqiu pulled out his smurf record book and reminded, "Don't let anyone else know about your smurf, especially when you're sharing it with others. Insist that you only have one account, otherwise the authorities will confiscate it."

"I see." She opened the drawer and wanted to put the brown sugar in, but found another sugar jar in the drawer. "Why is your sugar here with me?"

Lin Yanqiu took a look and explained, "This can is for you. It's full of fruit candies. They're not as stimulating as mint candies, but they're also refreshing."

Xu Qing spoke up for his AD: "He went to the supermarket to look for coffee for you, but he didn't like any of the coffees, so he reluctantly gave up his candy and gave it to you. This candy is really valuable."

Gu Yueshuang looked at the can of candy with suspicion. Xu Qing repeatedly emphasized that "sugar is expensive" and "reluctant to give it up". Could it be that this can of candy was given to him by his sponsor Lin Yanqiu?

Gu Yueshuang pushed the candy back: "It's not nice for me to accept it."

Lin Yanqiu: "Don't listen to his nonsense, just eat whatever you want."

Gu Yueshuang asked tentatively, "Where did you buy this jar of candy?"

Lin Yanqiu thought she was embarrassed to accept it, but she felt it was useful so she wanted to buy it herself.

He put the candy jar in her drawer and said, "Eat it with peace of mind. If you feel good after eating it, I'll send you the address. Don't listen to Xu Qing's nonsense. It's not that expensive."

Gu Yueshuang became more and more certain of her thoughts. He really didn't know where to buy the candy! So he just brushed it off for now, and he must have planned to ask the sponsor later and share the purchase channel with her.

She had already imagined a big drama in her mind and couldn't help shaking her head and sighing. It was really not easy for boys nowadays. They had to make money to support the family and be beautiful at the same time.

Lin Yanqiu was completely oblivious to her imaginary drama and asked, "Can I get a Diamond account on the Korean server? I haven't played on this account in a long time."

"OK."

Gu Yueshuang knew that he was changing the subject, so she tactfully avoided asking questions related to sugar.

Zhou Yao reminded them: "Remember to gain points in the Canyon of Heroes, otherwise you will be fined."

Gu Yueshuang didn't care: "Whatever."

She would rather pay money than play on the national server.

The atmosphere in the national server was better a few years ago, but now it is a complete mess. Not only are the actors blatant, but there are also a bunch of noobs who have poor operation skills and like to criticize others.

After playing for a long time, your mentality will be easily affected and you will gradually adapt to their level.

Xu Qing: "Our team is poor—"

Gu Yueshuang: "I'll give you the account. You help me play. The official won't know."

Xu Qing: "...You should pay the fine."

There was silence in the base for about three minutes, and Xu Qing couldn't help but ask, "You really don't want to fight? You might as well donate the money to our team instead of giving it to the alliance."

Gu Yueshuang: "I'm underage, so my account has anti-addiction measures, so I can only play for two hours a day."

Xu Qing: “…”

Two hours a day, ten qualifying matches, it will take at least five days to finish.

According to the league's requirements, you have to continue to move up to Diamond 1, otherwise you will be fined.

It's actually chronic torture. If it were Xu Qing, he would also choose a fine.

But when Xu Qing thought about having to pay the fine, he couldn't help but feel the pain.

Xu Qing gritted his teeth and said, "I'll help you fight, but you have to help me rank up on the Korean server later."

Gu Yueshuang smiled brightly: "Deal."

Lin Yanqiu: "To be on the safe side, the two of you should switch places to prevent the authorities from finding out."

Gu Yueshuang found a Korean server account that she rarely used and reminded Xu Qing: "Don't play mid or support, so as not to ruin your game. When you enter, block your teammates and ignore everything they say."

To be on the safe side, Xu Qing decided to choose a pure tank top laner and hide in the top lane until he develops enough to join the team.

Who knows the result——

"You didn't say you were going to be 5-on-1 in the top lane!!! Your name is too hateful, isn't it???"

Xu Qing looked devastated and roared heartbreakingly.

Gu Yueshuang was used to it: "You can buy any name change card, and it's okay to clear your friends. It's okay to do whatever you want."

Xu Qing: “…”

He regretted it.

That night, Gu Yang brought back their team uniforms for them to try on. "Where's Xu Qing? They've prepared one-size-fits-all uniforms. Come and try to see if you can fit them... Where are you?"

Zhou Yao pointed to the sofa and said, "He's lying there?"

Gu Yang looked concerned: "What's wrong? What's this?"

Gu Yueshuang: "Nothing, I just played Canyon of the Peak for two hours."

Gu Yang smacked his lips: "Is it really that serious?"

Zhou Yao sighed, "It was horrific. He was beaten for two hours, and even had a beating that involved whipping the corpse."

Gu Yang didn't understand what was going on and just thought they were joking.

He distributed the team uniforms to them and said, "Thin jackets and short-sleeved shirts. The venue should be heated in winter, so if you're afraid of the cold, you can wear more layers inside."

When it was Gu Yueshuang's turn, she was given an extra small doll about 20 centimeters long, and she was told, "Your sister gave this to you."

Gu Yueshuang looked at the little doll that looked so much like her sister, and a smile filled her eyes.

She was afraid that the little doll would get dusty if she placed it next to the computer, so she thought for a long time and decided to put it in the most conspicuous place in the transparent display cabinet in the room.

Gu family.

Gu Xingran yelled, "Mom! Have you seen my baby?"

"What doll?"

Gu Xingran gestured: "A little doll that looks very similar to me, about 20 centimeters long. It's my handicraft class homework."

“No.”

Gu Xingran muttered, "Where did it go? I was thinking of entering it in a competition... It's so rare to make a doll that looks so much like me, it couldn't have become a spirit and run away, could it?"

The author has something to say: Gu Yang: Didn't expect it? I took it away.
