Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The match was scheduled for the weekend to accommodate players who worked or attended school, allowing a wider audience to watch the event. Due to the overwhelming number of spectators, the officials decided to broadcast the entire match live, eagerly awaiting the appearance of the players from both teams.
On Song Fan’s side, the atmosphere was electric. After logging in, the team engaged in lively discussions about tactics in the chat room. In contrast, Eric’s team appeared dispirited. They had spent the entire night doing missions, and it was a miracle that they managed to wake up and log in.
Chun Rixue, sitting in front of the computer, had noticeable dark circles under his eyes, constantly yawning as if he might doze off any second. A pile of empty coffee cups lay behind him.
The others were no better off, with even the long-range attack specialist struggling to move her fingers to control the mouse for in-game actions.
Eric was the exception, brimming with energy. He had delegated the task of supervising his team to his secretary and had gone home early to rest.
Song Yin swiftly maneuvered her character to Eric’s side and playfully said, “I intended to do some missions for practice yesterday, but I was so tired I wanted to take a short nap. I didn’t expect to oversleep. What if I end up holding you back?”
By using voice chat and sending the message privately to Eric, Song Yin���s flirtatious tone left him thrilled, and he responded earnestly, “I have complete faith in our team members. Just stick by my side, and I’ll protect you.”
Song Yin swiftly replied, “I knew you were the best.”
Their playful exchange continued, oblivious to their teammates. Chun Rixue, glancing at the boss seated in the meeting room, was aware of everything transpiring. While these conversations were intended for private communication, he was fully informed.
Previously, Song Fan had asked Lan Yue to assist Chun Rixue to the best of her abilities if the need arose.
This was Song Fan’s vindictive intentions. She believed that Chun Rixue would definitely make Song Yin suffer. Even if it was just to make Song Yin unhappy, it was worth it.
Therefore, when Chun Rixue suggested that she wanted to monitor his boss’s messages, Lan Yue immediately agreed and sent it in real-time.
Upon reading the messages flooding his phone, Chun Rixue wished he could just faint right then and there. The boss’s disregard for them was evident, as he intended to introduce an additional liability into the team. This battle was of great importance to all of them.
By contemplating this, Chun Rixue silently resolved that he couldn’t continue in this manner. Even if he was reluctant, he had to find a way to exact revenge on the boss.
As both teams entered the battle zone, a growing crowd gathered to watch, flooding the game page with spectators.
Hua Yue did her utmost to maintain server stability, fearing it might crash during the battle due to the sheer number of viewers.
Eric stepped forward and said, “If you admit defeat now, I can let bygones be bygones. You just have to apologize. There’s no need to quit the game.” Xu Yuan rolled his eyes and typed, “You’d better wipe your mouth quickly so that the smell won’t affect others.
Xu Yuan was the most impatient person, and when he started scolding someone, not many people could stop him. Xiao Lei and the others couldn’t help but burst into laughter in front of their computers.
Eric was now furious. He retorted, “You don’t have to take advantage of me with your words. I’ll let you know what it means to lose.”
“If you describe yourself now, I won’t refute you,” Song Fan quipped.
Xiao Lei continued typing, “You’re in such a hurry to tell me your results. It seems like you’re in a hurry to go home for dinner after losing.”
Just as the few of them were mocking Eric, Gu Chen sent a message, “Cut the crap. Everything you say now will become a joke.”
Xu Yuan sighed, “It’s not right for Gu Chen to say such things. It looks like Eric will face a horrible death.
“Gu Chen rarely says threatening words, not to mention that there’s no need to maintain the dignity of the Gu Family in the game. It seems that he really cares about this competition,” Xiao Lei remarked.
Xia Rui raised his eyebrows. “I don’t think he cares about this game. He cares about the people in the game.”
Qi Shuo held his chin and said, “I have a feeling that Sunflower will definitely become Gu Chen’s nemesis.”
“If we get along well with Sunflower, then Gu Chen will have to bow down to us,” Xu Yuan mused, allowing his imagination to run wild.
The others instantly agreed with this perspective and began cheering for Sunflower on the World Channel, showing even more enthusiasm than Sunflower’s fans.
Song Fan was taken aback when she saw their fervor.. She asked in the chat room, “Are you guys alright?”
