Chapter 5 The Unfaithful Teammate (5)



SP and BL are the most decorated teams in the history of the League of Legends esports competition, and have maintained strong strength since the competition began.

Therefore, both teams have a considerable number of fans, and coupled with City A's advantageous geographical location, tickets for this playoff game are extremely difficult to obtain.

Yun Qing's eyes lit up when she saw Su Jinyu's message; she had never been to a live match before.

Since Su Jinyu invited her, and it's nearby anyway, there's no harm in going to take a look.

Yunqing: If I go to the event, what do I need to prepare?

Su Jinyu: No need, no need, it's good enough that you came.

Yunqing: Okay, then please send the ticket directly to my school. The address is No. ××, ×× Road, City A.

Su Jinyu: So you're a student at University A? That's amazing.

Yun Qing: It's not that impressive. I'm a local from City A, and my score isn't that high.

Su Jinyu: That's great too. By the way, I'm here for a competition, how about we meet up in person? What do you think?

Yun Qing: Huh? Does this count as meeting in person? Actually, I've already seen your photos online.

Su Jinyu's ears turned red instantly when she saw the text on the screen.

Yun Qing saw his photos? How did she see them? Did she search for them herself or find them by chance? Were they from a live broadcast of a competition or professionally edited photos?

These questions suddenly flooded his mind, leaving Su Jinyu stunned. When he came to his senses, he nervously typed: So what do you think of me?

"How is it?" Yun Qing asked, puzzled. She assumed he was referring to his appearance. To be fair, Su Jinyu was quite handsome for a guy.

However, I didn't expect him to care so much about what others thought of his appearance. I just don't know if it's narcissism or appearance anxiety.

Yun Qing thought to herself, her fingers clicking away: Not bad, pretty handsome.

Su Jinyu stared at her reply in a daze, almost scrutinizing the word "handsome" to perfection, and kept grinning foolishly while holding his phone.

Time flies, and the day of the competition arrived in no time.

The mobile game's league playoffs use a double-elimination format, held in the winners' bracket and losers' bracket based on the regular season. The winners' bracket consists of the top 4 teams from the regular season, while the losers' bracket consists of teams ranked 5th to 10th. All other teams are eliminated early. Teams in the winners' bracket have one chance to revive, while teams in the losers' bracket are eliminated if they lose one major match.

SP and BL have both won the first round of the playoffs' upper bracket, so the next match between the two teams will be the upper bracket final. The winning team will advance directly to the grand final, while the losing team will fall into the lower bracket.

Yun Qing and Jiang Xiaobai both received internal tickets, which were very close to the venue; they could see it just by looking up.

Yun Qing arrived late, and the venue was almost full. Looking at the support banners all over the audience seats, she finally had a better understanding of Su Jinyu's popularity.

Thinking of something, she casually took a picture of the audience seats and sent it to Su Jinyu.

You have quite a few fans.

Su Jinyu smiled helplessly at her teasing words. He had been worried that she would be angry because he hadn't been able to pick her up, but he hadn't expected her to be so easygoing.

Compared to Yun Qing's curiosity as she wandered around, Jiang Xiaobai felt like she was sitting on pins and needles.

Before she came, she only wanted to vent her anger, so she had someone take photos of her arrival and her meeting with Makino later.

But when she got to the scene and saw the dense crowd, she suddenly thought, what if she gets recognized on the spot?

Although he claims to be a technical streamer, Jiang Xiaobai is also aware that his minor fame in the industry is due to his good looks.

There is already some overlap between the fans of game streamers and professional players, not to mention those who specifically go to her live stream to criticize her, they definitely recognize her face.

What should she do? It would be terrible if she were recognized. Would Mu Ye's fans gang up on her? Jiang Xiaobai was filled with anxiety as she moved towards the door.

"Ah!" Just then, Yun Qing returned from buying water outside. The two accidentally bumped into each other, and Yun Qing lost her balance and fell to the ground.

"I'm sorry, you—" Jiang Xiaobai bowed his head and apologized. When he saw Yun Qing's beautiful face, the uneasy look on his face was replaced by jealousy, and he stood there stunned.

The two girls next to her saw this and went over to help Yun Qing up.

Are you alright?

Yun Qing used the support to stand up and thanked the two of them, saying, "I'm fine, thank you."

The two hadn't originally intended to meddle, but upon seeing Yun Qing's face, they were suddenly filled with a sense of chivalry and a desire to help those in need. They turned to Jiang Xiaobai, who was standing there dumbfounded, and said, "Hey, you bumped into someone, don't you know how to apologize?"

Hearing their accusations, Jiang Xiaobai blushed and said, "I... I didn't do it on purpose."

"If you didn't do it on purpose, then apologize."

As the female lead in romance novels, Jiang Xiaobai makes quite a few mistakes, but most people, influenced by the female lead's halo, don't blame her.

This was the first time Jiang Xiaobai had been embarrassed in front of everyone. Oh, and considering the previous live stream mishap, it was the second time.

Seeing the unfriendly looks from those around her, her eyes welled up with tears of grievance. She lowered her head to hide her resentment and mumbled reluctantly, "I'm sorry."

"It's alright, just be more careful next time." Yun Qing waved her hand and found her seat.

After all that commotion, Jiang Xiaobai didn't want to leave anymore. Otherwise, people would think she had run away in a bad mood because she was in the wrong.

Moreover, she also wanted to see whose fan this beautiful girl was. If it was Makino, then she would use the photos tonight to let her experience the feeling of envy and jealousy.

If not, she would inquire further about her, and she would surely find an opportunity to avenge herself.

The match started quickly, and the starting players from both teams took to the stage one by one. Perhaps it was because of the contrast that made the scene more beautiful, but among a group of ordinary boys, Su Jinyu stood out as exceptionally handsome.

Both in appearance and demeanor, he was completely out of place among the others on stage, like a model student mixed in with a group of hooligans. The male lead, Mu Ye, was handsome, but his wild and untamed nature wasn't Yun Qing's type.

Yun Qing looked across the seat at the female lead in the row behind her. In a sense, the two of them were a pairing of a rough man and a delicate flower.

Su Jinyu was completely unaware of Yun Qing's thoughts. In fact, after spending a long time in this circle, he had changed a lot and was no longer the good student Yun Qing had imagined.

However, when he went on stage today, he saw Yun Qing in the first row. He was so nervous that he didn't know what to do with his hands and feet, which created this sense of contrast.

Listening to the host's introduction, Su Jinyu almost dug out a three-bedroom apartment. Although he had experienced this scene seven or eight times before, looking into Yun Qing's clear eyes, he felt for the first time that the makeshift troupe's arrangements were so unnecessary.

Yun Qing doesn't actually think he's such a chuunibyou (delusional) person, does she? If so, he'd really be devastated.
