City C is also a first-tier city, but its prices are not this high.
It takes her almost two hours to get from Shuixie Yunlan to the airport by taxi, and the total cost would be around 120 or 130 yuan. Even with traffic, it would only be around 150 yuan. In City B...
It's like a robbery.
Unable to afford to sit or ride, Qiao Nansheng decisively gave up the idea of taking a taxi.
She found the subway station entrance and went to buy a ticket to take the subway.
The filming location was at the end of the subway line. When she bought the ticket, she noticed it only cost seven yuan and she could sit all the way to the end for about an hour.
It's 1:30 now, and we'll arrive around 2:30.
Then she found the hotel Zhou Cheng had sent her, checked in, put her things in, went shopping, ate some good food, visited some famous places in City B, and went back to rest in the evening to prepare for the recording the next day.
Qiao Nansheng thought to herself and couldn't help but give herself a thumbs up; the time arrangement was very reasonable.
She entered the station, and luckily, it was a new train that had just arrived, with plenty of seats available.
Qiao Nansheng found a double seat at the end of the room, placed the suitcase next to her feet to prevent it from sliding around, and then took out her phone to send a message to Zhou Cheng.
Xiao Qiao hasn't gotten any stronger today: I've arrived, send me the hotel address.
Zhou Cheng was busy and didn't reply to her in time.
Qiao Nansheng wasn't in a hurry, since it would be a long time before they arrived at that place.
She took out her earphones to listen to music, and opened Honor of Kings to play the game.
A handsome young man sat next to her, and he kept secretly watching her after Qiao Nansheng sat down.
Seeing that she had opened Honor of Kings, the boy's eyes lit up slightly, as if he had found a topic to strike up a conversation. He leaned closer to Qiao Nansheng and asked, "Hey, do you play games, miss? I'm a pro at jungling, I can carry you!"
Qiao Nansheng, who was listening to music with her headphones on, didn't hear what he said. She only saw the boy's lips move a few times. She took off her headphones and asked, "What did you say?"
The boy looked like a puppy. He blinked and repeated what he had just said.
“Sure,” Qiao Nansheng readily agreed. “Let’s do it.”
The boy immediately took out his phone, logged into the game, and added her as a friend. He then discovered that Qiao Nansheng was a Diamond player, while he was a King with 58 stars, so the two couldn't play together.
Qiao Nansheng's invitation to him failed, and she curled her lip: "Your level is too high, no way."
"It's okay, I have a secondary account." The boy said, logging out of his main account and switching to his secondary account.
His smurf account is Diamond rank, but he mainly plays mage and doesn't have runes. If he jungles, his teammates don't coordinate well. He's also a girl, so if he plays badly, it will probably be very embarrassing.
The boy was wondering what to do when the system automatically selected the mage Zhuge Liang for him since he hadn't chosen a hero yet.
"Oh no." The boy gasped. "I forgot to choose."
The other teammates are a top laner, support, and marksman, leaving only a jungler.
Qiao Nansheng said nonchalantly, "It's okay, I can jungle too."
The boy was silent for a moment: "Does the girl know how to jungle? If not, how about we switch roles? Do you know Zhuge Liang?"
While he was asking her questions, Qiao Nansheng had already chosen a jungler hero, playing Sun Wukong. Zhou Cheng gave her the Hellfire skin, which she really liked and thought was super cool.
The boy gasped when he saw the hero she chose: "Miss, do you know how to play Monkey King? Let's switch. If Monkey King doesn't farm well in the early game, he'll get crushed."
The enemy jungler is Xuan Ce. If the enemy Xuan Ce gets ahead while their Sun Wukong doesn't, these squishy heroes will die in a few hits.
Qiao Nansheng slowly took out a candy from her bag, tore off the wrapper, ate it, and said in a slow voice, "Don't worry, I guarantee I'll take you flying."
"..." Why does this sound so familiar?
The boy, filled with suspicion, finished clearing the jungle in the mid lane and followed her, hoping she could help if the enemy attacked. However, he ended up stealing a lot of Qiao Nansheng's experience points. She frowned, her face full of displeasure: "Go and mind your mid lane, don't follow me."
Boy: "...I'm afraid you'll get beaten up."
"Impossible." Qiao Nansheng said confidently. She was about to brag about how awesome she was when she saw the enemy mid laner, Daji, running out of the bushes ahead.
This Daji was lying in wait here, trying to ambush them, but unexpectedly, these two...
Daji's second skill, "Little Heart," immobilized Zhuge Liang. Qiao Nansheng, controlling the monkey, used the second skill to strike with the staff, followed by the ultimate skill, and also used the first skill at the same time.
Because it was early game, there wasn't much damage done, and Daji only died after I hit her twice with a basic attack.
Qiao Nansheng successfully secured the first kill for the enemy team, while the boys didn't even manage to get a single assist.
"Wow, you're really good at this, Miss." He managed to stammer out after a long pause, but what he was really thinking was, coincidentally, that Daji doesn't know how to play.
No girl could be that good at jungling; the opponent must be bad at it.
Qiao Nansheng didn't say anything, continued to farm in the jungle, then started the dragon and ganked the bottom lane marksman.
She gets very focused when she's playing games, completely ignoring everything else. She even swipes away the hotel address information that Zhou Cheng sent her.
She had practiced jungling before, and with the right runes, she could gank accurately every time, quickly leveling up and dominating the opponent.
This kind of game can't drag on. If it goes on too long, the opponent will develop their strength, and it will be harder for them to win in the late game.
Qiao Nansheng, along with four teammates, destroyed the enemy's crystal within ten minutes.
The boy was dumbfounded. He thought he was the one who would carry the girl, but he didn't expect to be carried by her. Qiao Nansheng didn't die once, but he died twice. He ranked fourth, and the fifth place was for support.
Suddenly I felt ashamed. I had promised to carry people, but I ended up being carried instead.
"Want to play again?" Qiao Nansheng asked, looking up at the current station. There were still more than ten stops to go, so they should be able to play another round.
"Hit." The boy nodded.
The two started a new game.
This time, the boy switched to playing Diao Chan. Since someone was jungling and there was no bottom lane or support, Qiao Nansheng chose top lane.
As it turned out, the jungler in this game was a newbie who was practicing new heroes and couldn't farm properly. He was constantly being pressured by the enemy team. Qiao Nansheng farmed the minion wave alone in the top lane and then went to gank after he got farmed up.
They had been pushed to the high ground by the opponent, but because she was setting the pace, taking the dragon and ganking, she turned the game into a losing battle.
It took nineteen minutes to finish, and there were still two stops left before reaching the final stop.
Having successfully gained two stars, Qiao Nansheng was in a great mood. She logged out of the game: "I'm not playing anymore, I'm getting off."
The boy nodded: "Miss, you're really good at jungling, do you want to join our team?"
"No." She refused without even thinking. For her, playing games was just a way to pass the time. Why join a team? She only played when she was bored.
"Okay." The boy was a little disappointed. Just then, they arrived at the final stop, and the two stood up and walked out.
