He threw up twice in the morning and couldn’t get anything else out. His stomach was filled with acidic water and he finally recovered after throwing up. However, he was so weak that, in Gu Zhixiao’s words, it was like overindulging.
After taking a few gulps of hot water and putting on a mask, Ren Jian forced himself to go to the tournament base with his teammates and coach.
This time, the friendly league had a heavy commercial atmosphere. There was a lot of media coming, and they had always been the target of besieging. As soon as they got out of the car, they were surrounded by reporters from the media. The teammates tacitly used their bodies to block the reporters so that he wouldn’t be touched again. The group of people hurried to the lounge, and only then did they find a moment of tranquility.
The coach looked at Ren Jian with some concern: “Is it uncomfortable? Why don’t you wait for the game and put a substitute on? “
Before Ren Jian could answer, the assistant immediately broke down and shouted, “Lord, please think twice! This time, the gold master[1] paid us a lot of money to play here because Ren Jian is a popular player! If he doesn’t play, I’ll definitely be beaten to death with a sack and a stick by the gold master tomorrow! “
The coach of the TKOW team raised his eyebrows. He had never liked all this fancy stuff. In his opinion, a match was a match. Where was all this nonsense?
It was good that Ren Jian opened his mouth and waved his hand, “It’s fine, I’ll go on, but I can only play casually.”
The assistant was instantly relieved.
The coach said, “Just play casually. Let Zhixiao[2] assist the ADC[3] and play the lower lane to raise the pig stream [4]. You can also have an easier time. Did you hear me, Zhixiao? “
Gu Zhixiao was excited: “Yes, playing piggyback stream. Does this mean I can finally take MVP[5]?”
Ren Jian slumped on the sofa in the lounge and said lazily, “Go for it.”
The match soon started.
The commentator, who was probably also Ren Jian’s fan, was quite excited and shouted Ren Jian’s team name: “Look everyone, Wilful is out! Well, unsurprisingly, the fielding position, eh, this time Clever has gone to the bottom lane. There’s no supporting fielding for Wilful. Is the TKOW team trying to raise their ADC this time? The opposing team will definitely target Wilful, and with Clever not following him, it’s going to be tough in the early stages of the game. “
However, five minutes later: Wilful has three kills!
Sixteen minutes later: The game is over, and Wilful is the MVP!
Gu Zhixiao took off his headphones and threw them on the table. He almost broke down, shouting to Ren Jian: “Where is the promised casual fight?”
Ren Jian rubbed his stomach, which was a bit hungry from not eating this morning, and leaned back to sit on the gaming chair: “It was a casual game.”
Other players: “Ah Xiao, calm down. Don’t smash the mouse! You can’t smash the keyboard either! Ren Jian, the cameraman is still filming! Sit up straight! You’re sliding off your gaming chair! “
Ren Jian didn’t pay attention to what his teammates were shouting. He was in a daze, thinking about Yu Qinghuan.
I don’t know if Yu Qinghuan’s check-out went well.
But I guess we won’t see each other again.
Well, he was an interesting person.
In fact, Yu Qinghuan’s check-out didn’t go too well because he didn’t expect the room rate to be so expensive.
“How much is it? 1088 yuan a night?” Yu Qinghuan almost bit off his tongue.
The lady at the front desk nodded with a smile on her face.
With trembling hands, Yu Qinghuan took out his bank card and handed it over. His heart was dripping blood and tears, raging against the corruption and oppression of capital.
If he had known last night that this room would cost 1088 yuan a night, then he would have!
Seeing Yu Qinghuan handing over his bank card, the lady at the front desk was stunned for a moment, then smiled, “This gentleman, the room charge has already been paid.”
“What?” Yu Qinghuan was dumbfounded, “Who paid for it?”
“Of course, it’s the gentleman you stayed with!”
He suddenly began to recall Ren Jian’s actions last night, but found that he did not have a deep impression of his personality. He only remembered that he was a handsome boy with an indefinable air of arrogance and unrestrainedness between his eyebrows.
What a nice guy I met.
Next time I see him again, I must invite him to dinner!
Yu Qinghuan thought to himself, put away his bank card, checked out of his room and went to take the underground to meet a client.
Who knew that he had just arrived at the underground when he saw Ren Jian?

The AD Carry focuses mainly on ranged, auto-attack based Champions that can deal a lot of damage from a distance. Similar to mages, AD Carries must be properly protected from the enemy team.
