Even the air in the room seemed to improve.
Qiao Nansheng was happy and started watching TV and scrolling through Douyin (TikTok). Even at 11 or 12 o'clock, she wasn't sleepy at all. She even got up and leaned against the headboard to start playing games.
She was recently introduced to Honor of Kings by her classmates and has been playing ranked matches, progressing from Bronze to Silver.
My teammates were really great this game. We were about to push to the enemy's high ground and were ready to take down their crystal in one go, but then a phone call came in.
Qiao Nansheng was flustered for a moment, then hung up the phone to focus on the game. The phone rang again a short while later, and she hung up again, but accidentally clicked "exit" while hanging up, and the game page disappeared.
When she logged back in, they had been pushed to the high ground by the opposing team.
Her four teammates were hurling insults at her, and a few seconds later, the crystal was destroyed, and they lost.
Then she went back to the game lobby and checked her inbox. Sure enough, she had been reported by four teammates for AFK and had three credit points deducted from her account.
Qiao Nansheng: ...
grass!
She's so angry!
Her anger flared up, and Qiao Nansheng found the person who had just called her and discovered it was Zhou Cheng.
She dialed the number, and as soon as the other end answered, they launched into a tirade of insults.
Zhou Cheng was completely dumbfounded by her scolding, which was still good. What was bad was that he was now playing a game with the other guests, and the loser had to call the first number in their contacts.
He pinned Qiao Nansheng to the top of his chat list without leaving a note, just a phone number. He had originally wanted to refuse and change the punishment, but then he suddenly wanted to hear her voice, so he called her.
However, several calls were cut off in a row. Zhou Cheng thought she was sleeping or busy, so he explained to the guests in a few words after hanging up. Everyone believed him, but then she called back at that moment.
Everyone looked over and saw that it was the number he had just dialed but hadn't been answered, so they egged him on to answer it.
Zhou Cheng accepted the offer.
But to everyone's surprise, the first thing that came through the phone was a woman's angry, cursing voice.
The group of people who were laughing and joking just a moment ago are now too scared to even laugh, their eyes glued to his phone.
The air was eerily quiet.
Qiao Nansheng's cursing continued, echoing through the quiet night. Curious eyes turned towards him from all directions, and Zhou Cheng suddenly felt a headache coming on.
He rubbed his temples, picked up his phone, and stood up: "I'm going to take this call."
Han Ye and Xu Yao nodded.
"Okay, go ahead."
Although they were genuinely curious about the owner of the female voice, their immediate priority was to appease the woman.
It's not too late to ask after Zhou Cheng has calmed down and returned.
Anyway, the footage and sound from just now were filmed, so if the production team wanted to create some buzz and generate hype, they wouldn't cut that part out.
Han Ye watched Zhou Cheng's departing figure, making sure he couldn't hear him, before speaking: "Actually, if someone called me while I was playing games, I would also get furious like this."
And she cursed even more fiercely than the woman on Zhou Cheng's phone.
When asked why he was so sure, he replied that he had had the same experience.
He was in the King of Glory promotion match. His skills were not good, and he was carried to the top by playing mid and support all the way. He was about to reach the King of Glory rank, but he lost because of a phone call. Han Ye was so angry that he smashed his phone on the spot.
Xu Yao: "Xiao Ye, have you forgotten? We're still filming a variety show. Zhou Yingdi is too far away to hear us, but he's been filmed."
She pointed to the drones hovering in the air.
Han Ye: "..."
day.
I completely forgot about that.
Han Ye tilted his head back and smiled at the drone: "Could our universe's cutest, most handsome, and most adorable director Su please cut this part out?"
Su Jing, watching their filming from outside the mountains: "..."
I blushed inexplicably after being praised for being cute.
…
Zhou Cheng took his phone and walked a distance away from Han Ye and the others.
"Do you know I almost won just now! I was in the promotion match, and I lost because of your phone call. My teammates even cursed me out and reported me. Waaaaah, you have to pay me back my star!" Qiao Nansheng was extremely aggrieved. She stared at the missing star on the screen, her heart aching so much that even breathing hurt.
God knows how long she played her promotion matches. A couple of days ago, a classmate offered to play with her. As a result, the classmate went from Silver to Gold and was matched with very skilled teammates. They played one game, but because she was so bad, the classmate disliked her and refused to play with her anymore.
This time I finally didn't let my teammates down and was quite capable, and look what happened!
Zhou Cheng heard her repeat it several times. Her tone went from being excited at the beginning to being so excited that he could feel her murderous intent even through the screen. After a while, the excitement and murderous intent disappeared, and Qiao Nansheng's voice came through with a slight sob.
"Waaaaah, I don't care, you have to pay me back my stars!!"
