Ruan Qi let the woman’s hands play havoc on her face, her eyes smiling as she looked at the woman, her tone soft and gentle.
“Sister Wanwan.”
“Ah, I’m done for!” Liu Wanwan clutched her chest, pretending to faint, “I really want to push Xiao Ruanruan down!”
As she spoke, she reached out with her “evil claws,” attacking Ruan Qi’s cheeks that were pinched red.
“Hey!
Liu Wanwan, enough is enough!”
The nearby youth couldn’t stand it anymore and pulled Ruan Qi’s hand into his embrace.
His azure eyes glanced at Ruan Qi’s reddening cheeks, his handsome brows frowning in anger.
“Liu Wanwan, is your brain filled with shit?
Don’t you know her skin is delicate?!” the youth roared.
Liu Wanwan also realized she had been a bit too forceful.
She apologetically gestured ‘sorry’ to Ruan Qi, then put her hands on her hips and glared at the youth.
“Liu Nanfeng, I’m your sister!
Do you believe I’ll tell Mom about the 600g of action movies on your computer?”
Liu Nanfeng choked, quickly glancing down at Ruan Qi before guiltily shifting his gaze away.
Liu Wanwan inwardly clicked her tongue.
Chicken-hearted despite having the hots for someone, you deserve to pine away forever.
At this moment, the other two people in the room also joined in.
The youth with gold-rimmed glasses spoke up.
“You siblings cause a scene over there.
Xiao Qi is all sweaty; let her rest for a bit.”
Upon hearing this, the Liu brothers immediately sealed their lips.
“Did Lei Shen not come?”
All four faces subtly changed.
The gold-rimmed glasses youth, He Yao, coughed once, vaguely saying, “The vice-captain… he’s dealing with some private matters.”
Ruan Qi put away her smile and let out a gentle sigh.
“… He’s still angry with me, isn’t he.”
The soft girl drooped her head, looking like a little turtle that had been abandoned.
Liu Wanwan couldn’t bear to see her like this and walked over to embrace her.
“Xiao Ruanruan, Lei Shen is just hotheaded, otherwise how could he be called Lei Shen?
Let him cool off; he’ll be over it in a few days.”
The little fatty standing next to He Yao curled his lip, “Before, it was manageable, but this time it’s tough.”
Liu Wanwan glared at him.
Ruan Qi’s expression grew even more disheartened.
“It’s my fault.
I shouldn’t have brought up retirement with him.”
“It’s not your fault, really not your fault,” Liu Wanwan hurriedly consoled, “You’ve been playing for MYQ for so many years; it’s normal to be tired and want a rest.
It’s just that, Xiao Ruanruan…”
She hesitated for a moment, then whispered, “Xiao Ruanruan, MYQ really can’t be without you.
Neither can Lei Shen nor any of us.”
Little Azure Dragon, code-named Dragon God, was the spiritual pillar of MYQ, China’s number one e-sports team.
Without her, there would be no MYQ, and none of them would exist.
Ruan Qi’s eyes felt a little sore.
She lifted her head, her moist gaze sweeping over each of the four people.
“I have some stories that, maybe one day in the future, could affect MYQ because of these things.
It might even implicate you all, preventing everyone from going into battle.”
The little fatty beside He Yao asked, “Will anyone die?”
Ruan Qi shook her head blankly, “Of course not.”
“Then that settles it,” the little fatty said seriously, “As long as nobody dies, there’s no problem.
The MYQ team can cease to exist, we can all avoid the battlefield.
But as long as MYQ enters the battlefield, it can never be without Little Azure Dragon!”
“So, Ruan Xiaoqi, put away your indecisiveness.”
“MYQ will forever share its fate with Dragon God.”
——*——*——
When Shen Wenqian learned the purpose of Ruan Qi’s call, he was so startled that he dropped the documents in his hand.
“You want me to pick you up at Dynasty Hall?!”
“Miss Ruan, have you forgotten that I’m currently embroiled in scandals and could be photographed by paparazzi at any moment?”
“Are you trying to become the second female lead in my scandal?”
“… Alright then.
I’ll do it.
Dynasty Hall’s fourth floor, right?
Wait for me twenty minutes; I’ll be there soon.”
When Shen Wenqian appeared on the fourth floor of Dynasty Hall, he saw Ruan Qi leaning against a private room doorway.
He walked over, and at that moment, a line of four people walked out of the private room.
When Shen Wenqian clearly saw the faces of those four people, his mouth slowly dropped open.
“M, MYQ?!?!”
He screamed out loud.
The four members of MYQ turned their heads at the sound, with Liu Wanwan raising her hand and coquettishly sending a wink at Shen Wenqian.
Shen Wenqian was petrified.
Liu Wanwan and the others calmly walked past him and disappeared into the elevator.
Shen Wenqian stood there for a good while before snapping back to reality.
He frantically rushed up to Ruan Qi, pointing at the elevator.
“They, they, they!
You know them?!”
Ruan Qi shook her head in bewilderment, “Don’t know them.”
“Really?” Shen Wenqian was skeptical.
“Really.” Ruan Qi was especially sincere.
Shen Wenqian: “… Then why were you standing at the door to their private room?”
Ruan Qi smiled, “I got tired of waiting for you.
I thought this door looked nice, so I leaned against it to rest a bit.”
Shen Wenqian: … I’ll pass, thanks!
