Those Sweet Times 

Chapter 89 Part 3

“Nuannuan.”

“Yeah?”

“I’ve prepared a betrothal gift.”

Xiang Nuan looked out of the window and said in a small voice: “I didn’t say that I’ll marry you.”

Lin Chuyan took one hand off the steering wheel and reached over to pat Xiang Nuan’s head: “I see you’re being naughty again, Iron Head.”

Xiang Nuan: =  =

Indeed, Lin Chuyan had changed. In the beginning, Lin Chuyan would intimately call her Nuannuan. Later on, after they had been together for a longer period of time, he started to give her all sorts of weird nicknames.

Nowadays, he liked to call her ‘Iron Head’ because she usually played warrior at top lane in the game and always rushed to the front during fights.

Xiang Nuan would certainly try to get even with him. Therefore his new nickname was “Xuanyuan leftover.”

They often called each other names as they played. They didn’t feel anything wrong with it, but for frequent viewers of Lu Chuyan’s streams, it was rather unacceptable for their god and goddess to become Leftover and Ironhead.

“Xuanyuan Leftover, you haven’t proposed to me yet.” Xiang Nuan said.

“En. I’ll drive a diamond studded tractor to come and propose to you.”

Xiang Nuan imagined what that would look like in her head and found that it would be rather interesting……

She didn’t want to continue the conversation with Lin Chuyan because she felt that Lin Chuyan had made her unable to think like a normal person anymore……

Xiang Nuan opened her cell phone to check Weibo and saw a newly posted interview clip on the official site for Kings of Glory’s professional league.

The person being interviewed was Oblivion, nicknamed ‘Team Fire Red’s first leg.’ Oblivion hadn’t switched teams since he joined Team Fire Red. He had been on the team for three years now, first as the newcomer who had come out of blue, then as the veteran player of the team. Unfortunately, Team Fire Red wasn’t a very strong team, ranked somewhere between the middle and lower parts of the league, and didn’t perform well in competitions. The team almost fell out of the major league. It was Oblivion who fought hard during the 7 relegation matches that eventually secured the team’s position in next season’s competition.

Some fans sarcastically called the team ‘one god carry four weights.’

Xiang Nuan didn’t agree with those fans. Though Oblivion was great, his other teammates didn’t play the matches doing absolutely nothing. Otherwise they couldn’t come up on top in the end. The real problem with Team Fire Red was with the management. She had heard that the manager of the team whom they had met was the owner’s brother-in-law and had messed up the team. The players were not given a unified team goal.

Xiang Nuan felt sorry for Oblivion. If he was with another team, he would’ve already won the championship.

There were a lot of people who felt sorry for Oblivion. But he was quite at peace with himself during the interview.

The host asked Oblivion how he started to play professionally. Oblivion answered: “I was a laborer moving bricks before. Then the construction sites started to use machines to move bricks and I lost my job. My friends introduced me to the team.”

“What do you like to do before the game to reduce stress?”

“Put on a facial mask.”

“Oh? No wonder your skin looks so good. I heard you even became a brand ambassador for a whitening facial mask?”

“Yes.”

“Your fans all call you hubby, how do you feel about that?”

“Uhm, better not…...call me that.”

……

Xiang Nuan giggly finished watching the video clip and checked the comments down below. She found a lot of people were asking whether it was true that Team Fire Red was going to have new owners?

“What the hell. Only an idiot would buy a lousy team like Fire Red.” Xiang Nuan commented quite disdainfully and added: “Too bad for Oblivion.”

Lin Chuyan said: “Don’t look at the cell phone.”

“Then what should I look at?”

“Look at me.”

“Lin Chuyan, you’re so full of yourself. It’s easy to get beaten up this way.” Though Xiang Nuan was saying so, she put down her cell phone anyway.
