Meanwhile…
At the e-sports base of Logic.
The training room was brightly lit and the sounds of mouse devices being clicked and the punching of keyboard keys filled the air.
Xiao Naofu was nestled in the pocket of Xiang Yu’s team uniform, its tiny head popping out to watch him play the game. After watching the game for a few days, Xiao Naofu had already mastered the rules and seemed to be more into than Xiang Yu himself.
“Meow meow meow!!!”
—— Charge, charge, charge, beat him up! Beat him up ruthlessly!
Xiao Naofu’s meowing was the best music to Xiang Yu’s ears.
The sniper in the game ended the battle with a clean shot and soon found a cover to hide.
He freed his hand to cover Xiao Naofu’s eyes and coaxed softly, “Be good, Xiao Naofu, such brutal scenes of violence and killing are not suitable for an adorable kitten like you.”
Xiao Naofu: …!
—No! Let me watch it! I want to do e-sports too!
Creak—
The door was pushed open by Captain Wander, who had just returned from balloting.
He sighed and said apologetically, “Sorry guys, I wasn’t lucky enough. We’re going up against Team ICE in the next round.”
This year, the international contact home ground of “Cry Glory” was in Nancheng. Team Logic was one of the two Chinese teams that made it to the top 36, which everyone in the local gaming community had high hopes for. However, Team ICE was an elite team that made it to the top three of the global league last year, making Team Logic pale in comparison. Team Logic might easily get defeated in the first round if they were competing against Team ICE.
Everyone in the team was inevitably feeling somber.
At this moment…
“Ow! Ooooh!”
Xiao Naofu pried Xiang Yu’s hands away and leaped onto the keyboard aggressively before smashing its chubby and soft paw against the attack button on the keyboard. With a loud bang, the sniper in the game accurately shot the enemy who was preparing to launch a sneak attack!
Everyone in the team was astonished!
Xiao Naofu, who thought it was a tiger that was an expert in e-sports, wanted to continue attacking but was picked up by Wander. He exclaimed tearfully, “This is a miracle! It must be a miracle! It’s God’s encouragement! Everyone, get yourselves together and let’s charge!”
All of a sudden, they were all full of zeal. “Let’s go, charge!!!”
Xiao Naofu was struggling desperately while thinking, ‘Let go of me! I can still go on!’
…
On the other hand…
In the office of the director of the research institute.
“What right does a cripple like Xiang Li have to apply for so much funding? Can he conduct experiments with his hands? He’s obviously hogging the precious resources…” A middle-aged man griped.
The director tried to pacify him but that just made him push his luck further. “How about this? We’ll keep Xiang Li’s team and kick Xiang Li out. I’ll join to guide them. Xiang Li is no longer of any value to our research institute!”
The director was confused.
Despite being injured, Xiang Li had still managed to research and develop lots of new drugs. He had also written several core theses and papers, which was enough to prove his research ability.
‘You’re just an incompetent bootlicker. How can you have the cheek to ask me to kick Xiang Li out?’
The director said sullenly, “First of all, Professor Xiang Li’s hand will recover in no time. Secondly, Professor Xiang Li has discovered a certain extract within the seaweed, and he has also made significant progress! He is the last person I’ll replace!”
…
At the same time.
In the middle of the bustling city where the building lights were glowing brightly, Xiang Chen was standing in front of a floor-to-ceiling window, clad in a black night robe and speaking to his partner over the phone.
He rejected aloofly, “New case? Not interested.”
“I have things that are more important to do.”
His thin lips curled into a smile.
“My little bunny is coming to coax me.”
