You’re Beautiful When You Smile

Chapter 15 Part 2

The first round.

Lu Sicheng played Jungler. At first, they played peacefully, each doing their own thing. Until the seventh minute mark, while Tong Yao was in the middle of an intense fight with the enemy’s mid, she suddenly heard his low voice, “Do you want blue?”

-- --Blue was shorthand for “blue buff”, a buff that a special creep on the map gave to whoever dealt the finishing blow to it. It’s a buff that increases mana regeneration and a +10% cooldown reduction to their abilities. Usually, the Jungler would give the Mid the first blue buff so the Mid would have an advantage in lane.

-- --There’s a “red buff” on the map which is earned the same way as blue buff. The buff increases a champion’s damage and slows any enemy struck by the owner of the buff…...The blue buff belongs to Mid, the red buff belongs to ADC.

Both buffs can be obtained by killing a special creep or the enemy who’s carrying the buff.

Tong Yao: “Yes.”

Just as Tong Yao moved her champion closer to the blue buff as she replied only to hear Lu Sicheng say, “Forget about it.”

Tong Yao: “What the hell are you talking about. Blue is the bottom line of a Mid’s honor-- --”

Before she could finish speaking, a flash shone on the blue buff creep. Right before she moved in front of the blue buff, Lu Sicheng used Smite (a Summoner Spell that deals a large amount of damage to creeps, usually carried by Jungler) to kill the blue buff creep.

Tong Yao:  “.................”

Lu Sicheng: “The enemy’s Mid has it.”

Tong Yao: “.....................”

Lu Sicheng: “Go get it yourself.”

Tong Yao, angered by her teammate, single handedly killed the opposing Mid and took the blue buff. Her breakthrough encouraged her teammates to win the round through sheer momentum…...The moment they pushed the enemy’s base, the Jungler even sarcastically commented, “See, if I don’t force you, you would’ve taken your time farming minions. You can kill the enemy by yourself, don’t you want to win?”

Tong Yao: “Shut up.”

……

The second round.

Lu Sicheng got to play as ADC.

At the exact same moment as the last round, at the seventh minute, Tong Yao moved her champion slowly from mid to bot to form a team of three with Lu Sicheng and their team’s Support. With the advantage of three to two, they fought with the two enemy champions at bot…...After a small scale fight, they got two kills. Lu Sicheng happily went back to the base.

When his champion returned  to base, he noticed their own Mid had jumped next to the red buff.  Lu Sicheng: “ ? ”

[ZGDX chessman remind you to back away]

A series of bright yellow exclamation marks showed up next to the red buff. Yet, Tong Yao acted as if she was blind and deaf to all the warnings, quickly using her abilities to take red buff for herself.

Lu Sicheng: “You want to die?”

Tong Yao: “Enemy’s ADC has it.”

Lu Sicheng: “......”

Tong Yao: “Get it yourself.”

Lu Sicheng: “......”

This round ended at the 23rd minute amid the exclamation of Old Cat, “Cheng Ge hasn’t gone afk.” The round ended when their team cleared the enemy’s bot-- --By the time the game was over, the ADC had 22 kills, 0 death, and 3 assists. He even got a pentakill-- --

This time it was Lu Sicheng, who was angered by their Mid, that performed excellently.

At the same time, there was a post on a famous esports blog with the title: [what the hell, I just saw Cheng Ge and the new ZGDX Mid girl playing duo on OB (an online viewing system)!]

The post instantly rose to the top with hundreds of comments.

……

Meanwhile, Tong Yao and Lu Sicheng started their third round.

This time, Tong Yao chose a champion which she hadn’t used for years, Yasuo. This is a champion that would make their teammates want to back out of the game. As expected, Tong Yao ended with 0 kills, 5 deaths, and 0 assists.

Lu Sicheng: “I really want to unplug your internet.”

Tong Yao: “Don’t. Wait till I get the hang of it, then you can take over the game later.”

As she was talking, her screen turned black once more, she got killed again.

-- --During a game, if one player keeps being killed and doesn’t contribute to any kill, the reward money for killing said player would be gradually deducted from 300 gold downwards. In the end, that person would be a worthless ATM machine, which was what Tong Yao was at the moment.

Lu Sicheng: “......Stop feeding.”

At the fifteenth minute, after Tong Yao got a black screen again, Lu Sicheng finally couldn’t stand it anymore. He gave up defending bot’s first inhibitor turret and moved to mid. After a confusing team fight, Mid’s stats finally changed from 0/7/0 to 1/7/0-- --

Tong Yao: “Good, I got a head! I’m going to fly now!”

Lu Sicheng: “You’re not going to fly at all. You’re just worth something again.”

Tong Yao: “......”

……

After all three rounds had ended.

Lu Sicheng: “Get off.”

Tong Yao: “Gladly.”

The two went separate ways, playing solo on their own.

Tong Yao took over her cell phone and typed silently.

One minute later, there was a new Weibo posting coming from “Smiling”-- --

[Smiling: has become completely estranged from ZGDX chessman (=_=)]
