You’re Beautiful When You Smile

Chapter 179 Part 1

Tong Yao still remembered how she felt the last time she was sitting on the substitute seat-- --Watching her teammates on the stage while enduring a state of miserable indignation, while also praying for the team. On the one hand, she was worried that Lu Yue would perform too well and replace her; on the other hand, she worried that Lu Yue wasn’t going to play well enough and cause the team to lose the match……

At the time she had a lot of negative thoughts, though some positive ones as well. Nevertheless, she was totally detached from the game that was being played at the time.

She had thought that she would never get used to sitting in the substitute seat in her life. But now a miracle happened. She and Ming god sat shoulder to shoulder in the break room backstage, looking up at the screen that showed the match, now about to begin. There was a notebook on her lap and she was tense-- --

The feeling she had now was quite different from before.

She felt that there were six players on stage playing the game. She wasn’t able to detach herself from the game like before. She nervously fixed her eyes on the screen as the match was about to begin the ban & pick phase. All she could think of was: What will Jin Yuguang take this round? How is he going to play it? Will he still maintain his intricate play style like the last round? His condition today is really good……

She didn’t think too much about Lu Yue, surprisingly.

In addition, Ming god was nagging next to her ear: “I was so anxious while watching the last round. You can’t be that aggressive fighting against Jin Yuguang. Didn’t I prepare the data on him and told you so earlier. He has a solid defense and makes strong counterattacks. He especially can target a player like you…… Before your first death, I don’t believe your captain didn't tell you to pull back the minion lane.”

Tong Yao: “He did, he did.”

Ming god: “Then why didn’t you pull back? !”

Tong Yao: “I couldn’t help it, couldn’t help it.”

Tong Yao thought about it: “Hrm, that’s Jin Yuguang-- --I can’t think of anything else once I see him, my brain goes blank. I forgot that I said I would play safe and wouldn’t get too excited. The aggressive blood in my body was boiling and I could only think: Kill him! I’ll be the world’s first mid if I kill him! Mid king of the world!”

Ming god: “......”

Tong Yao: “It’s like Gollum who can only think of the ring. I’ve also fallen into the spell of ‘wanting to kill Jin Yuguang’-- --But since I’ve calmed down, I have a profound recognition of my mistakes and foolishness. I was wrong.”

Ming god: “......”

Ming god: “Shit, were you bewitched or cursed? Nevermind, I’ll tentatively categorize this as regret for not meeting each other earlier which is unique to world competitions among good players-- --Actually you aren’t the only one. Many players also get in over their heads when they go against Jin Yuguang. All they think about is getting into a fight with him then it’ll give OP a chance to get the upper hand…… This is probably the aura buff that comes with Jin Yuguang himself?”

Tong Yao touched her chin: “Not everyone’s like that. There’s someone who’s quite capable of keeping his cool.”

Ming god was surprised: “Who?”

 

Tong Yao lifted her chin at the screen in front of them: “Our player Lu Yue.”

Ming god looked up and happened to see the camera cut to Lu Yue. He had just sat down in his seat and was playing with his fingernails quite earnestly like a retard…… Ming god sighed and patted Tong Yao’s shoulder before he stood up. He walked out of the break room in a hurry to go onstage to take care of the ban & pick phase.

A few minutes later, OP noticed that ZGDX had changed their mid player. OP knew that Lu Yue’s champion pool paled in comparison to Tong Yao’s and they targeted mid champions during the ban. Lu Yue’s Azir, Twisted Fate, and Vladimir which were quite strong in the current patch all got banned. Lu Yue, with his champion pool almost depleted, had no choice but to choose the mid champion that leaned a bit heavily on support power, Karma, after he turned to talk to other teammates.

Tong Yao guessed that he probably said: If I knew this would happen, I shouldn’t have shown off my Twisted Fate during the league competition back home.

Jin Yuguang, unexpectedly, took Corki as his champion.
