Chapter 41
[The unlucky uncle and nephew duo, both of them stumbled and fell, so pitiful.]
Is it possible that Xixi doesn't want to get close to your poop either (just kidding)?
[XiXi is so amazing! She scraped such a big hole; applying iodine must have hurt!]
[The veterinarian is so gentle!]
The "expert" was currently slumped in his ergonomic chair at his workstation, not wanting to say a word.
He was none other than Secretary Li, the struggling employee of the Jiang family.
Secretary Li had been working like a dog and a horse. She had just taken a half-week vacation a few days ago and had just returned from the Maldives last night. When she got off the plane at four o'clock in the morning and connected to the Internet, she saw the gossip about her own president's wife.
He made an urgent call to Jiang Yijing that very night: "President Jiang, what's going on?"
“Mr. Leng probably wouldn’t…” Secretary Li hesitated.
Jiang Yijing's voice was unwavering: "What are you thinking about? This is the team coach."
Secretary Li chuckled twice: "Yes, I didn't mean that. Of course, Mr. Leng can't think about anything else... I'll contact the team right away and handle this matter through public relations."
What he really meant was that Mr. Leng only cared about esports and would never have anything to do with the coach. However, Jiang Yijing clearly interpreted it differently.
Hmm... It can only fit him.
The photo wasn't very clear, which actually eliminated the skin-smoothing effect of old photos from the millennium. The more Jiang Yijing looked at it, the more pleasing Leng Zhi's profile seemed.
He muttered, "Tch, so you're just a national server player while he's a professional. Just wait and see!"
As the vice-captain's younger brother, he has had easy access to the base lately. After watching so many of LSG's training matches, his game understanding has improved at lightning speed, and he has a general understanding of the team's strength—of course, this may also be due to his biased view of his pro teammates.
The Moon Rabbit Fairy Chang did not disappoint Zou Lin.
Despite being a mid-lane mage, the jungle seems to be Tyrant's home. The complex terrain and countless neutral creatures here provide the perfect nourishment for Chang's mana bar.
He single-handedly fought with the ferocity of a thousand troops. Gu Zuo clearly knew he had to avoid Xian Chang's magic array, but there was nowhere left for him to settle down!
It's either fight, or we hand over the jungle to them.
How can we let that happen? If we let it happen again, our jungler will be finished.
The little grass spirit seized the opportunity, stepped forward to the right, and released its only control skill.
Tiger Gate General also promptly followed up with an attack skill. The hero transformed into a fierce tiger, his muscular body rolling as he lunged at the Moon Rabbit Fairy Chang.
"Look, he abandoned the spell attack runes most commonly used by mages and replaced them with 16% lifesteal. This is a bold move; such an approach has never been seen in professional matches before."
His companion understood: "So that's how it is. Sacrificing burst damage for longer sustain, so they can keep harassing WRC's jungle and make them collapse! This isn't a mage, it's practically... calling him the second jungler wouldn't be an exaggeration."
"No, you're wrong." The commentator slowed down his speech. "Tyrant is the number one mid laner, and Ghost will become his... second mid laner."
The core reversal, the resilient and powerful immortal Chang, has opened up a new approach.
Sure enough, in the next few minutes, LSG truly revealed their true colors.
Tyrant's economy grew at an alarming rate.
With the support of his own support and jungler, he successfully controlled half of the enemy's jungle, plus his own mid lane.
Not only that, he also took advantage of a break to return to his own jungle and take all the red and blue buffs.
"Chocolate and strawberry combo, please!"
"Just like him!"
Jiang Mingzhe, hands on hips: "Mengde, why are you copying me! Hami melon is a flavor only the Squirrel King can eat!"
Meng De: "Who said that? Did you make these rules? And tonight, the Squirrel King is mine!"
The two kids were at loggerheads, and Youyou, caught in the middle, rolled her eyes: "Two childish brats."
Jiang Mingzhe & Meng De: "Hmph!"
Jiang Yijing recalled what Leng Zhi had told him last night.
[Leng Zhi: Mr. Jiang, if you see a student named Meng De, please remember to tell his parents for me to stop stealing game points.]
Leng Zhi specifically typed out a long paragraph explaining the leaderboard mechanism of this mini-game.
"Are you Mengde's parent?" Jiang Yijing asked.
Meng Cheng was scanning a QR code to pay when he glanced at the aristocratic-looking man beside him and asked, "Yes, what's wrong?"
Jiang Yijing carefully chose his words: "My wife asked me to discuss something with you. It's about the children's smartwatch games. Could we... slow down the pace of improving their scores? That would be more beneficial for their education."
He uttered the words "my wife" without batting an eye, his delivery incredibly fluent. Meanwhile, Leng Zhi, hiding behind the ice cream stand, couldn't help but blush.
No, how could he say it so naturally!
Unlike Jiang Yijing's composed demeanor, Leng Zhi felt an urge to sharpen his knife and assassinate his teammates every time he heard them use vulgar language like "your husband" or "your husband."
Seeing that Meng Cheng was still a little confused, Jiang Yijing repeated Leng Zhi's words in more detail: "We see that you are also adding points one by one. My wife's idea is that we should not do the test three times a day. Instead, we can have Meng De first place on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, and Jiang Mingzhe first place on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. We can only do one point a day."
Mengde finally understood.
However, he was just fulfilling his brother's task, not taking care of the children.
"Slowing down... is that okay? But he can't beat me in scoring later, so I won't stop."
Jiang Yijing nodded slightly: "Okay, thank you, it's all to support the child's education."
Although he had some doubts about the effectiveness of this parenting strategy, since it was Leng Zhi's idea, it wasn't a bad idea to follow it for now.
“But he might not necessarily lose to you,” Jiang Yijing suddenly added.
Meng De raised an eyebrow: "Although it's just a small game, I'm an e-sports player, this is my profession."
Jiang Yijing remained silent. Although he trusted Leng Zhi and wanted to refute him, continuing the conversation seemed somewhat offensive.
esports player?
Jiang Yijing seemed to be deep in thought.
Leng Zhi waited until everyone had left before revealing himself.
He did hear Meng Cheng mention "e-sports players," but he didn't take it to heart—e-sports players encompass a wide range, including starters, second teams, youth training players, and players from secondary leagues; it's a considerable group.
I wonder which team they're from, and whether we'll ever run into them on the field.
"Hey buddy, how about an ice cream?"
Ghost was unusually low-key today. In order to improve Tyrant's farming speed, he would even help his teammates reduce the jungle monsters to only a sliver of health before handing them over.
When the game was about ten minutes in, Tyrant entered a terrifying period of dominance.
The burst damage issue caused by insufficient magic items in the early game is completely non-existent at this moment—he has a huge economic lead and has an extra major item compared to the opponent.
On the WRC side, it was Bian Xiangyu who stepped up on the wing.
Before Tyrant's economy took off, he frequently harassed the marksman lane, causing Jingcheng, who should have been nurtured with the best resources by the team, to be suppressed and unable to emerge.
Bian Xiangyu has a very flexible way of thinking.
"It's okay, I'll switch to damage-dealing gear."
While sidelane heroes are categorized into fighter and tank sidelanes based on their stats and characteristics, this isn't a fixed rule. Sidelane players can flexibly choose their item builds and playstyles.
The two took turns tanking the tower, creating an excellent environment for Xian Chang and the sharpshooter to deal damage.
Meanwhile, the ancient Pan Shen acted like a bodyguard in black, staying close to the mid-range marksman to prevent the enemy jungler from flanking him.
"...In short, I'll have a sip of water first."
The commentator was already overwhelmed with work, having to praise Lancer's excellent marksmanship while also explaining the complex team fight situation; his lips were practically crackling with energy.
He thought for a moment and said, "The final is this afternoon. I'm afraid contacting them might affect the competition. Try to delete as many as possible before dawn. You just got back from vacation, so you can arrange for someone else to do it."
"And investigate the source of this image; eradicate it from the source," he added.
Secretary Li accepted the order and hung up the phone.
Although Jiang Yijing was very considerate of his subordinates, he dared not entrust this matter to other colleagues—after all, he felt more at ease doing it himself.
Li, the "expert," immediately mobilized all his connections, along with the power of Jiang's capital, to quell the farce within two hours.
The junior reporter at the source was still dreaming of making a fortune through traffic, but before he could even finish his dream, he was bombarded with urgent calls from his boss.
The lawyer's letter arrived at his entertainment company at lightning speed, jolting the boss awake from his sleep and waking up the equally asleep junior reporter.
"You're in trouble! Stop posting everything just for clicks! Do you think you can afford to mess with this?!"
The young reporter was bewildered, staring at the lawyer's letter with a series of charges beginning with "infringement of personal privacy" and the exorbitant compensation amount. After a while, he finally realized that he had made a big mistake.
"It's over!"
