"Well said! Holding back would be an insult to our Champion Team, wouldn’t it? At the very least, they deserve a quadra kill to show some respect~" Xiong Wei basked in his own pride. "What, wasn’t it said that you guys at YFD urgently recruited a newcomer? Why not bring him out for us to see if he’s even worthy to tie Laier’s shoelaces?"
"Who are you calling trash?"
Li Mingshuo grabbed Xiong Wei by the collar as Xiong Wei raised his chin defiantly, "What, you want to fight?"
"Mingshuo!" Chen Du pulled back Big White and Li Mingshuo, "Don’t let him provoke you. Keep your cool; settle your scores on the battlefield!"
Pang Kai came from backstage to see YFD and RSG in a standoff, "What’s all this about? The CEO has arrived; you all better go over there."
Li Mingshuo let go, and Xiong Wei dusted off his collar, "Best of luck, YFD~ Don’t get smashed to pieces in the game, or even your sponsor will dump you!"
The four of them approached Bo Tingshen with sullen expressions. Bo Tingshen glanced at them, "Where’s Ye Xian?"
Chen Du: "The driver hasn’t responded, but at this hour he should have picked him up."
Pang Kai brewed a cup of tea for Bo Tingshen, and the man lifted the cup, gently filtering the steam with the lid, "Laier joining RSG has had a big impact on you?"
"CEO, you already knew?"
Big White suddenly looked up, "That guy, he’s so ungrateful! You’ve spent years nurturing him and now he turns around and bites you. What a bastard!"
Li Mingshuo: "I can’t believe that after all we’ve been through, he could do something !"
Chen Du: "Now’s not the time to be angry. The issue is that Laier fought side by side with us for years, he knows us like the back of his hand. To know your enemy is to be victorious in every battle, but we have limited understanding of RSG, and I’m worried..."
Wen Lan: "The situation is worse than we thought. Now, our only trump card is Ye Xian."
Big White was about to pull out his phone to share the news with Ye Xian, but then he saw... Ye Xian had left the group. Before leaving, he left just two words—’Liars’
"Check the group chat!"
All four pulled out their phones simultaneously.
"Ye Xian wants to withdraw from the competition?!"
Pang Kai, startled by the news, grabbed Big White’s phone and handed it to the CEO.
On the sofa, the man’s tea-filtering motion paused as well.
Big White: "How could this happen? Wasn’t everything fine yesterday? Could Ye Xian have been bought off by RSG too?"
Li Mingshuo: "Impossible! To prevent any accidents and public backlash, we wouldn’t reveal that our AD is Ye Xian until the moment of the match. How could RSG know that?"
"Then why would Ye Xian want to withdraw from the competition, and right at this critical moment? Wouldn’t this ruin us at YFD!"
"What does he mean by ’Liars’? Who lied to him?"
"I can’t believe that Ye Xian is the same kind of person as Laier. Otherwise, why would she have helped us record and sing for free?"
Bo Tingshen: "Call Ye Xian."
Pang Kai hurriedly took out his phone, only to find out... he had been blocked by Ye Xian at some point.
"CEO, I can’t get through to Ye Xian."
Bo Tingshen pulled out his phone and found that name in the contacts, dialing it.
"I’m sorry, the number you have dialed is currently unavailable, Sorry, the number you dialed..."
Pang Kai, "..." Ye Xian had even blocked the CEO.
