Kapitel 12: CHAPTER 12
Ten minutes later.
"Delete the Weibo post."
"No."
"Delete the Weibo post."
"I won't."
"I'm telling you for the last time, delete the Weibo post."
"I definitely won't."
Lu Sicheng sat on the sofa, glancing at the short haired girl sitting right across from him-- --The girl wore a t-shirt, flip flops, and big shorts. An ugly cat sat in the crook of her arm. Her luggage stood beside her as she smiled brilliantly.
"..."
Lu Sicheng had seen enough.
He frowned and turned to look at his phone which he had thrown away earlier. He opened Weibo again-- --His Weibo had been quiet for over ten days, but just ten minutes ago, he kept getting new mentions. When he clicked on them, they were from fans who kept mentioning him under a certain Weibo post. The post read as follows-- --
[Smiling: I arrived at the base and knocked on the door. Cheng Ge came to answer the door, then he looked at me and shut the door-- --thus, I'm still standing in front of the door, with my Dabing.]
The text was superimposed on top of an image of an ugly cat collapsed underneath pots of plants. The background showed the front door of the ZGDX base. Those pots had been planted by Xiaorui.
There were 700 comments.
A lot of people were saying things like, "Ahhhhhhh, I feel for you." "My goodness, hahahahahahaha. Why? Hahahahahaha." "Is it because you look too much like an insurance saleswoman?" "Dabing is cute."...
Or the comments were like-- --
[Neat freak: Cheng Ge, how could you! It's too much. Smiling, let's retaliate together! How about you take some indecent pictures of him and sell it to us.]
[--Nini: Dabing, hurry, eat all of his fish! @ZGDXLu Sicheng.]
[Dreams of salty fish: I'm dying from laughter here @ZGDXLu Sicheng. Cheng Ge, open the door for my Smiling. She has a dream, she wants to play professionally!]
[Ahmaomao: Indeed, she isn't good looking, but by opening the door again you still can't give your new mid a new face like in a magic show @ZGDXLu Sicheng.]
[I'm your fangirl: It's alright, keep her outside, but let our Dabing into the room first?@ZGDXLu Sicheng.]
[I suspect you're not salty fish: Eat his fish.]
[Chicken Mua: Eat the goldfish! Eat his goldfish! ! !]
"...Stupid."
Lu Sicheng threw his phone down and stood up to return to his computer to start a new ranked game. The others also went back to their computers after they had each greeted her…..The manager, Xiaorui, walked down the stairs. Tong Yao stood up from the sofa and nervously spoke, "Rui Ge, I'm reporting for duty."
"Ah, you're here." Xiaorui hurried to Tong Yao's side and, with shining eyes, took the cat from her arms. "Come here, let me hold you, Dabing-- --Aiyo, this cat is heavy…...By the way, I saw your Weibo post, Lu Sicheng shut the door on you?"
Tong Yao twitched her lips.
Lu Sicheng: "I thought she's a fan trying to gank our base."
Xiaorui stroked Dabing's head and the cat drooped its ears and purred in satisfaction…..Xiaorui looked down at Tong Yao's flip flops, "Have you ever seen a fan dressed like this coming to gank the base?"
Lu Sicheng focused on his computer screen, replying matter of factly without even turning his head, "No, I haven't. That's why I shut the door."
Tong Yao: "..."
Should she apologize for not dressing up?
Xiaorui: "Tong Yao, your room's ready. Let's go up and take a look? You can put down your luggage there. If you still need things like a toothbrush, toothpaste, or towel, I'll have someone drive you to the nearby store to shop after you put away your luggage."
Tong Yao nodded. Dabing seemed very happy inside Xiaorui's arms, she was happy to let him take care of the cat for now. Just as she was about to pull her luggage to go upstairs, the top, Old Cat, kicked the support, Little Fatty, "Go help."
Little Fatty had just finished a round while Old Cat was just starting another. He had no good excuse to refuse and walked over to help carry the luggage. Tong Yao kept thanking him as Little Fatty said matter of factly with a smile, "We're teammates from now on, we should help each other out. Even though Cheng Ge doesn't act very friendly..."
Tong Yao: "?"
Little Fatty: "Well, actually, he's not very friendly at all."
Tong Yao: "..."
Little Fatty: "But it doesn't matter. Everyone, except him, at base is easy to talk to-- --After you settle down, come help me get some points. The end of month audit will be in two days, if I don't get to Master tier again, I'll get a deduction on my salary."
Tong Yao looked at Little Fatty in confusion about the quick change in topic. Little Fatty said with a grin, "It's hard for support to get points in ranked games."
"Oh, sure." Tong Yao nodded, "I'll help."
Little Fatty was satisfied with the answer. Not long after, Old Cat called from downstairs as if he was clairaudient, "Tong Yao, don't let him fool you. He only causes trouble when he plays. If you play with him, then you're giving away your own points."
Little Fatty delivered Tong Yao and her luggage to the outside of her room. Tong Yao turned and saw a small open area across from her room with several computers set up there. There were people in front of each computers. Tong Yao looked at Little Fatty.
Little Fatty told her, "They're kids from the B team."
Tong Yao nodded. Little Fatty rushed to leave after telling her "Let's play duos tonight", preventing any chance for her to refuse…...Tong Yao turned to go into her own room. The people at base had really spent a lot effort to prepare the room for her. It was very clean, the room had brand new beddings, a white closet and dresser, and a fluffy carpet under the bed. It was obvious this was a teenage girl's room just by the look of it!
Tong Yao was touched by the arrangement the team had done for her. She took out her tomboyish clothes, which mismatched with the room, to hang in the closet and placed all of her skin care products on top of the dresser. All that remained in her suitcase were Dabing's canned food and snacks. She stuffed all of them into the small refrigerator in the room. Now she just had an empty suitcase.
Tong Yao rolled around on the soft bed to rest and checked her cell phone for a while. Then she was ready to go downstairs to find Rui Ge to go shopping...
When she went down, she discovered that it had changed into a different world within the hour she had spent in her room-- --It was very quiet on the first floor. Except for Old Cat and Little Fatty occasionally exchanging some words about the game or items. The rest of them sat in front of their computers focused solely on playing their games.
Rui Ge was nowhere to be found.
Her Dabing…...had curled up into a furry ball, lying like a sea cucumber next to Lu Sicheng's foot. Its four little short legs surrounded his foot, sound asleep.
Lu Sicheng was concentrating so hard on his game, he hadn't noticed something warm hugging his foot.
"Dabing..."
Among all the people in this base, it knew that it had to suck up to this man in order to survive!
But it was of no use! ! ! !
In this man's eyes, it was just a little animal that would eat his fish sons! ! ! !
Tong Yao hurried over to try and pick up the cat. The cat struggled during the attempt. Tong Yao forcefully picked it up, calling its name to calm it while very naturally kissing its furry head-- --
When she raised her head, she saw the man who was playing had abruptly stopped and turned to look at her.
The look he gave made her feel uneasy, "...What's wrong?"
Lu Sicheng: "This cat just rubbed against my foot with its head."
Tong Yao: "? ? ?"
Lu Sicheng: "If it'll make you feel better, I showered this morning."
Tong Yao: "..........."
Tong Yao thought about it, then threw the cat down to start wiping her mouth with her sleeve desperately. Dabing didn't understand why it had been discarded all of sudden, after it landed, it ran a few steps away then turned to protest against Tong Yao-- --
Lu Sicheng: "Do you feel better now?"
Tong Yao: "Not really."
Lu Sicheng showed a short but satisfying smile.
Tong Yao finally reacted, "I'll never delete that Weibo post."
Lu Sicheng didn't raise his head, "Be my guest."
"I'm going to pin it."
"Really? I'm so scared."
"..."
"..."
As they silently faced off, Xiaorui returned. He looked at Tong Yao and Lu Sicheng, then asked, "Tong Yao, you've put your things away?"
Tong Yao nodded. Xiaorui replied without giving it much thought, "I just lent my car to the cameraman. Cheng Ge, why don't you take her to shop for groceries?"
Lu Sicheng was taken back, turned to look at the manager with a frown, "I'm busy."
Xiaorui came closer to see his computer screen, "Busy being afk? You're going to drop to Diamond 2 my friend."
Lu Sicheng: "That's why I'm busy. The audit is only two days away."
Xiaorui: "You want to go from Diamond 2 to Master in two days, do you think you're a magician?"
Lu Sicheng thought about it and probably agreed that it was an impossible task. He slowly got up from his seat and looked down at the girl who was looking up at him. He paused, then simply said, "Go." He grabbed the car key next to the computer and went ahead towards the door.
Tong Yao stood stupefied taking a few moments to react to what had happened. She quickly followed that tall man whose each step was equal to two of hers-- --
"Wait, Cheng Ge…...Ai, can I call you Cheng Ge?"
Lu Sicheng lowered his head to look the girl who only reached to his waist as she bent over to get her shoes on. Tong Yao got her flip flops on and curiously raised her head to look at the man-- --
"..." Lu Sicheng's lips had a slight curve. "It'd be more proper to call me dad."
"..."
"Shorty."
"What shorty. You better talk nicely. It's our fate to meet each other, why are you so hostile?"
"Delete the Weibo post."
"I won't. You shut the door first."
"I didn't expect our future teammate to be underaged."
"I'm 19!"
"Your height is telling me that you're lying."
"......That post is getting pinned now."
"Ha."
Tong Yao walked in the front with her head held high. The man behind her closed the door, saving the people inside from listening to their senseless arguing. Both of them walked towards the garage.
