You’re Beautiful When You Smile
Chapter 96 Part 3

Lu Sicheng continued: “Generally speaking, the fans who make such suggestions are most likely teenagers-- --or even if they are adults who are already out of school-- --I would like to remind them that professional players are normal human beings. I’m not going to ask them whether they’re in class when they get online to sneer at players who won’t train more but spend time on affairs or some odd games in their spare times, or whether they get on Tieba on their cell phones during class. I only wish that, sometimes, everyone could put themselves in our shoes and consider this: We are all young and I believe that most of us have done things like skipping classes, sleeping in class, or sneaking a peek at the pretty girls in class-- --tsk.”

Lu Sicheng paused a moment.

Lu Sicheng: “Though I’ve never done that.”

The foot that was stepping on his right foot moved away.

Lu Sicheng: “-- --Those similar experiences.”

Lu Sicehng: “Therefore, we aren’t any different than all of you. Just because we play professional games, we aren’t especially noble or perfect like a saint…...It’s quite a mundane thing to talk about a player playing Moonlight Blade today and Snake tomorrow, or having an affair the day after. Most of our time is spent on playing League of Legends. It’s very possible that the time we spend on playing LOL is much more than what some people spend on their studies-- --Many highschoolers face the possibility that when they graduate, they might have to break up with their girlfriends in the future because they’ll be going to different cities for college. But there are even more professional players who get dumped by their girlfriends in the middle of their careers, why?”

Ai Jia picked up the microphone: “Why?”

Little Fatty: “I suggest you go interview the jungler of Team CK, Yang god. He’ll tell you why.”

Tong Yao: “Hrm.”

The reporter sat down, with the look as if he had been persuaded.

Yet another reporter stood up, looking unconvinced: [Cheng Ge seems quite knowledgeable about all this.]

Xiao Rui, who was leaning against the wall and keeping quiet all this time, straightened up and he wore an expression that said to the effect: you’re making trouble here, I’m going to call the security guards now.

However, Lu Sicheng waved at him to tell him that it was alright. Then Lu Sicheng naturally picked up the topic: “It’s because I’m older than most of the professional players here and I’ve been playing longer than most. Naturally, I’ve seen more things than them as well.”

The reporter: [Then, it seems that Cheng Ge doesn’t have any objection about players in a relationship.]

Lu Sicheng: “There’s nothing wrong if they know where the limits are. It’s not unheard of for highschool sweethearts to both get into Qinghua or Beida.”

The reporter: [So, does Cheng Ge also want to fall in love?]

Lu Sicheng paused with the microphone in hand. Tong Yao lifted her hand to pull her hair behind her ear.

Lu Sicheng flatly said: “I already have someone I like now.”

Everyone in the room was shocked.

All the reporters kept writing something in their notebooks. Every single ZGDX player turned to look at their captain with a confused look on their faces.

Tong Yao put down her hand and put the hand under the tablecloth to grip her pants. Her palm was drenched in sweat-- --On her face, she had to pretend to be surprised like everyone else. She also tried to convince herself: He didn’t say anything! You haven’t heard anything! Don’t blush! Can’t blush! Try to breathe lightly! Be calm! Must stay calm!

The reporter: [Then to those demanding fans, is there anything you would like to say to them, Cheng Ge?]

Just as the reporter finished his question, Tong Yao felt a big hand suddenly also go under the tablecloth and quietly put it on top of her hand. That big hand even forcefully slipped his fingers between her fingers.

In contrast to Tong Yao’s sudden stiffened back, Lu Sicheng relaxedly leaned against the back of his chair.

“I would like to thank all the fans for their support and liking us. We’ll do our best to play good games and win competitions. If possible, please come to the arena more often. And in addition to that……”

His calm and low voice sounded right next to Tong Yao’s ear-- --

“If you really like a player, please come closer to his competition stage, but stay a bit further away from his personal life.”
