Chapter 223 A Long-Awaited Embrace



"Junior, you should go now. You're no use staying here."

Wei Yufan shook his head upon seeing this, "We've been trying to persuade him for days, but it's no use at all."

"Senior Yu, you can't give up because of this little setback. There are still many people supporting you!"

Chen Zhixi's face was full of determination. She then took out her phone and said, "I'll ask my dad for money right now. I believe that even if you fail this time, you can get back up next time."

Yu Mobai's eyes widened; seeing her dialing as if she were serious, he grabbed her arm.

"I'm just thinking things through here. I'll leave once I've figured things out. You're keeping me here, so I don't want to go in."

"You're not lying to me?" Chen Zhixi asked.

"No."

"Okay, I'll come back in a few days. If you still don't leave, I'll definitely pull you away from here."

On the fifth day, Yu Mobai had a scraggly beard, his hair had grown a lot, his eyes were bloodshot, and dark bags under his eyes meant that he hadn't slept well for several days.

He exuded an aura of dejection.

The others weren't really interested in playing computer games either; many people had come over to check on Yu Mobai's condition these past few days.

Dong Yike would call frequently to inquire about the situation, but Yu Mobai would only give her perfunctory replies.

In the latter half of the night, everyone was fast asleep.

Yu Mobai leisurely got up and went to the toilet to relieve himself.

As soon as he stepped out of the private room, he immediately perked up and even jumped around to stretch his body.

Damn, it's tiring to pretend to be a melancholy man.

He sits hunched over in his chair all day, like he's paralyzed.

That bastard Feng Linhao is really clueless.

What time is it? Can't you at least show Ji Mushu a picture of me?

It wasn't that he didn't want to tell Feng Linhao the truth, but he was afraid that Feng Linhao would reveal the truth under Ji Mushu's pressure, and then all the suffering he had endured these past few days would be for naught.

After all, Feng Linhao has always been a pretty damn honest guy.

After relieving himself of his water, he went to the bar and ate two bowls of instant noodles, then returned to the private room to feign depression.

On the sixth day, the news continued to spread online.

Many people are questioning why Teamfight Tactics hasn't issued a public statement.

Feng Linhao finally sent a message to both Ji Mushu and Dong Yike: "Mo Bai's condition has been very bad these past few days. Why don't you come back and check on him?"

In a coffee shop in Beihe City.

Ji Mushu sat in her usual spot, waiting for Dong Yike.

The two of them have been keeping a close eye on the progress of this matter for the past two days.

So we meet at the coffee shop almost every day.

Unfortunately, Mobai Technology has never come forward to answer the question, allowing various rumors to circulate.

Some tabloids reported that "Teamfight Tactics couldn't afford the exorbitant compensation payouts and ran away with the money."

Other reports have also surfaced: "The founder of Mobai Technology, unable to withstand the pressure, attempted suicide by jumping off a building!"

"Shocking! A shocking scandal in Teamfight Tactics!"

Ironically, even after these announcements, Alipay's promotional efforts did not stop.

They even went so far as to hire online trolls to further amplify the matter.

It doesn't matter if it's a black cat or a white cat, as long as it can catch mice, it's a good cat.

Yu Mobai had already discussed it with Alipay.

Therefore, Ge Taiping's side was also very cooperative in their plan to make Teamfight Tactics famous.

Whether it's a good reputation or a bad reputation, as long as everyone knows about it, when Yu Mobai finally produces the evidence, it will be a stunning reversal.

These reputations will gradually translate into word-of-mouth and slowly turn users into loyal customers.

Ji Mushu gently bit her lower lip with her pearly teeth, her watery eyes like a pebble thrown into a calm lake, creating ripples.

She scrolled through posts about Teamfight Tactics on her phone.

These past few days, she has often secretly looked at news about this matter late at night, and every time she does, she gets into arguments with other people on the forum.

However, she didn't show it in front of Dong Yike.

I just quietly keep an eye on the latest developments.

Every time she saw news articles praising the founder of Mobai Technology, her heart would skip a beat.

She had thought about going back, but she didn't know what identity she could use to return.

Ji Mushu is that kind of person; she always keeps things to herself and refuses to speak out.

But she is also a very sensitive person.

They are especially sensitive about their first love.

Therefore, regarding that previous incident, she preferred to withdraw herself rather than accept any explanation from Yu Mobai, since any explanation would be futile.

Her eyes were filled with complex emotions, her two fingers intertwined and placed on her chest, the coffee on the table long since cold.

The girl's heart was filled with unspoken worries, yet she had nowhere to vent them.

Her long, black hair cascaded down her shoulders, carrying a hint of sadness.

Even the soft music in the coffee shop couldn't dispel her confusion.

Soon, Dong Yike's voice rang out from behind.

Are you going back?

She originally wanted to go back on the first day, but Yu Mobai kept telling her it was okay.

Only by making Ele.me stronger can he overcome this difficulty. So Dong Yike has been busy running around the market these past few days, hoping to help Yu Mobai get through this as soon as possible.

Ji Mushu turned her gaze away from the leaves outside and quietly looked at Dong Yike.

The weather outside was hot, and since she had run there, her face was covered in pink.

She hadn't figured out how to phrase it, so she just kept a straight face and took a sip of her cold coffee.

Ding~

The two people's phones rang one after the other.
