You’re Beautiful When You Smile
Chapter 66 Part 2

Finally, the lounge quieted down and everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Several showgirls circled around Tong Yao asking whether she’s alright. The host was also trying to smooth things out…...Only Lu Sicheng bothered to take the program and took a picture of it on his cell phone in the corner before tossing it away-- --Tong Yao turned to see that his back was still wet. With a frown, she took out a pack of tissues from her pocket and handed it to him.

“We’ll do what’s on the program sheet.” Lu Sicheng took the tissues but didn’t look at Tong Yao: “Little Fatty, Old K, and Lu Yue, those of you who don’t have any injuries on your hands will go with the host to do the game. As for the other stuff, we’ll talk after we get back.”

Tong Yao widened her eyes: “You’re still doing it? Then what did I cause all that fuss for-- --”

Before she could finish complaining, a calm glance from Lu Sicheng made her swallow the rest of her words.

The host was delighted that Lu Sicheng had agreed to do the game. Though not all the team would be participating, it was already good enough for the host after everything that had happened. He hurriedly thanked Lu Sicheng and grabbed Lu Yue, Little Fatty, and Old K to go on stage with him, as if he was afraid that they would back out at any moment-- --

When the game began on the stage, it grew quite in the lounge.

Lu Sicheng sat in the corner with tissues in hand, neither using them nor saying a word. The atmosphere in the room became rather gloomy…...Tong Yao and Old Cat gave each other an uneasy look; they suddenly found it difficult to sit back in their chairs, as if there were thorns on the seats-- --Tong Yao dejectedly picked up the chairs strewn all over the ground and put them back upright. Then she followed Xiao Rui back to the team bus to fetch a spare uniform for Lu Sicheng to change into. She carried the uniform back as carefully as a eunuch holding the emperor's dragon robe.

Back in the lounge, Tong Yao gave the uniform to Lu Sicheng and said in a small voice: “Cheng Ge, go change your clothes.”

Lu Sicheng stopped playing on his cell phone and looked up. Without saying a word, he took the uniform and stood up to go to the restroom-- --When he pushed the lounge door open, he lit a cigarette between his lips. No one had the courage to stop him.

“......” Tong Yao squatted down next to Old Cat: “Cheng Ge hasn’t smoked for quite some time now.”

“Yeah, I figure he’s taking a few puffs to steady his nerves.” Old Cat seriously nodded. “Otherwise, how else can he deal with the urge to beat you up. He can’t beat you up. Can’t whip you with his belt. All he can do is light up a cigarette to cool himself down and maybe deduct your pay……”

As he spoke, he looked outside the door and saw Lu Sicheng had extinguished the cigarette on the trash can outside after just a couple of puffs.

Old Cat: “Try to imagine that cigarette as your head.”

Tong Yao: “......”

Tong Yao just remembered what Lu Sicheng had told her on the airplane. Then she realized, her captain was angry at her.

……………………………...It was a difficult situation for her to handle.

Tong Yao had never tried to appease the captain when she’s enraged him-- --

Tong Yao was in a predicament which she had never faced before.

……

The event ended at three o’clock in the afternoon.

As a rule, bad news always spreads faster than the good ones.

On their way to the airport after the event, Tong Yao saw the Weibo post from [Kitten meow] go viral. She had posted several messages crying about how arrogant and big-headed the ZGDX players were, not even willing to work with the organizer to play some games. The female player of the team was particularly difficult to deal with and would hit people when irritated-- --

She emphasized the hitting part!

This was probably the biggest wave Tong Yao had created since she joined the team several months ago.
