You’re Beautiful When You Smile

“Tong Yao, who were you talking to on the phone.
You look like you’ve been hit by thunder.” Little Fatty curiously stretched over his head.

“……” Little Fatty’s question pulled Tong Yao back to reality.
She put down the phone and spoke as if she was sleepwalking, “It’s from Cheng Ge.
He said he had finished his business and has changed his flight to come back tomorrow……”

Cheng Ge? Phone call? Little Fatty blinked, making sure that Tong Yao’s match wasn’t finished yet, and asked in confusion, “Aren’t you two in the same match, what’s there to talk on the phone about instead of in the game……Are you two alright, playing the same game while talking on the phone?”

“I talked to him in the game, but he ignored me.
I was like an idiot jumping up and down……” Tong Yao didn’t take the blame, “He’s the one who has a problem.”

“……So Cheng Ge’s coming back tomorrow? It’s good that he’ll be back soon– –It’ll be the summer season soon and we haven’t taken the pictures yet.
I heard that the new uniform for the summer will be here soon……Before the season starts, we need to play a few more training games, so you get used to playing with us.”

As Little Fatty murmured half to himself, Tong Yao quickly pushed the enemy’s Nexus.
Amid the sound of the exploding Nexus, she exited the post-game screen.
Tong Yao watched the points she took from Lu Sicheng soar with great satisfaction as she returned to Master!

Just as she was considering whether to start another match, a small box jumped out at the lower right hand corner on the screen with many Korean words mixed with a word, “sunflower.” It meant that this person wanted to add you to his friend list, do you accept– –Considering the fact that he had played bravely when he was ganking mid earlier and she had blocked him for so many years, and the possibility that they would meet during competitions and shake hands after each match.
It would be very embarrassing if she kept refusing to interact with him……

Tong Yao thought about it all and hesitated, then accepted Jian Yang’s friend invitation.

What she didn’t expect was the first message she’d receive, it was almost enough to make her fall out of her chair: [Yaoyao, can we get back together?]

Tong Yao instantly replied, [No way], then logged off the game.

Jian Yang wouldn’t give up and used another app to message her– —

[Where the sun shines[1]: Tong Yao, in the past, you felt that because we’re in two different cities our schedules could never match up and it was just a waste of time to continue our relationship.
So you found some small issue to fight with me to break up with me……Now you’re a professional player yourself, you should understand the daily routine of a professional player.
I wasn’t ignoring you on purpose back then, I never want to break up with you.]

Tong Yao: “……”

Some people should be blocked forever

Be blocked for ten thousand years.

[It’s smiling not balding[2]: However, at that time I didn’t feel anything you did was pointing towards ‘you don’t want to break up’, not even slightly– –I snuck in messages during class during the day and you never answered.
At night, you told me you were busy with training matches and then I find on Tieba[3] pictures that your whole team had gone to karaoke.
One of the hostesses almost put her stocking on your head.
Now you tell me that you didn’t want to break up, do you think I have Alzheimer’s or is there something wrong with you?]

[Where the sun shines: That was all in the past, besides, I have apologized to you already! I shouldn’t lie to you.]

[It’s smiling not balding: Oh, but I don’t accept your apology.]

[Where the sun shines: ……Are you really getting together with Lu Sicheng?]

[It’s smiling not balding: ? ? ? ? ? ?]

[It’s smiling not balding: What does this have anything to do with him.]

[Where the sun shines: I’ve noticed it for some time now.
Whenever you stream or he streams, you two are always together.
The internet is saying that you two are together now.
Lu Sicheng even read out bullet comments for you……And there are fans saying that they saw you two go shopping hand in hand.]

[Where the sun shines: Chen Jinyang said that you have sworn never to fall in love with a professional player.]

[Where the sun shines: Do you still remember what you said before? I’m reminding you again if you forgot……If you have a relationship with any professional player, it’ll have to be me.]

Tong Yao: “……”

Yo, an overbearing boss had fallen in love with me.

[It’s smiling not balding: Friend, it’s time for your medicine.]

[Where the sun shines: Lu Sicheng won’t like a little girl like you.]

[It’s smiling not balding: ……]

[Where the sun shines: Tong Yao, I miss you, really.]

Tong Yao considered for 30 seconds, then started typing– —

[It’s smiling not balding: Unfortunately, yesterday, when Little Fatty was watching a stream and I happened to walked by, I heard the hostess say in a sweet voice, ‘Thank you Yang God for the the big sword (a gift on the stream platform, the most expensive kind).’ — –Are you missing me with your feet?]

[Where the sun shines: What stream hostess! That’s the member of our club’s LoL female team.
Our club asked me to do some publicity stunt with her to bring up the viewer count.
You know as well that the female team isn’t for the competitions– –]

[It’s smiling not balding: You said the same thing two years ago, you were forced to blah blah……]

[It’s smiling not balding: The leopard cannot change his spots.]

[It’s smiling not balding: What are you saying that a female team isn’t for competitions.
You need to learn you lesson for looking down girl players.
Aren’t you good friend with Ai Jia? Go ask him what I had done to him at the skirmish last time?]

[Where the sun shines: You only beat Ai Jia.
Even if we don’t count the Koreans, there are ten teams in the Chinese region alone– –You’re good, but don’t be too confident.
There’s an alternate Mid in ZGDX, not the one in the Spring Tournament.
If he comes back, you can be switched off if you don’t perform well.]

[1]: It’s a play on Jian Yang’s name.
 His Yang is written with the character for sun.

[2]: Yes balding is in her username and I don’t know why.

[3]: A Chinese site for fan groups.
