Chapter 20: Looking this handsome, you must be tired, right?

~7 min read 1,352 words

Brothers, let's drink milk tea!

At the QG base, Doinb left a cup of fresh milk tea on everyone's seat.

There was grass jelly, there were classic pearls, and there was taro pudding boba.

Thank you, Ying Bi Ge.

It's Xiao You Zed treating us again, we've been drinking this for days already, how embarrassing.

Envious of Jin Gu Gu, he's got great taste in girlfriends.

Basking in everyone's praise, Da B was overjoyed: "Later there will be fruit delivered; if anyone wants something, tell me in advance and I'll have Tang Xiaoyou order it online."

In just a week, Doinb seemed like a completely different person.

After Xu Dongmen once told him to have a broader perspective, Da B took note and ever since, whenever he gets milk tea, he brings a share for everyone.

Although Doinb's salary isn't as high as Dade's, it's still quite substantial, and with his streaming income, this amount of money is just a drop in the bucket for him.

A few cups of milk tea aren't worth much, but they can change his teammates' impression of him.

Previously, Doinb was seen by everyone as a refined egoist, habitually self‑centered in everything he did, never considering his teammates' feelings.

Take his streaming, for example: he streams every day at the base, noisy like a monkey, never thinking about whether he might be affecting others.

Even if he did affect others, that would be fine; the key is he still always thinks he's the victim, putting on a self‑righteous attitude.

This is just unbearable!

Please have some milk tea and fruit; this can be considered a form of compensation.

As the saying goes, "short mouth from eating, soft hands from taking," and with the team winning recent matches, the atmosphere has improved; Da B easily mended the rift with his teammates and regained trust.

But this guy isn't just a naive simpleton; he treats others, yet he refuses to treat Swift.

Everyone in the training room got a cup, except Swift.

Even Taixiang has reason to say this, Bai Duo Xun has been backstabbing me in the team, and Dongmen told me to ask him for milk tea—how could I?

Regarding this, Xu Dongmen could only spread his hands like a little bear; it's like arguing with kindergarten kids—do whatever.

"Dongmen, you're famous!" Bao Bo drank his milk tea while browsing the tieba.

"Indeed, I'm famous." Tian Zai Mo Ri felt deeply: "Since the semifinals ended, I feel like everywhere I see is that gif of your male gun."

"Don't say it, today three male guns have flashed onto my face trying to instant‑kill me, TMD, crazy!" UZI felt bewildered.

In the QG vs EDG semifinal, what attracted the most attention and discussion after the match wasn't the 15‑minute seven‑layer mark on Thresh, nor the spider's square jungle, but the scene of Xu Dongmen instantly killing Deft in the top lane.

Simple and brutal, with unparalleled visual impact!

One move, attracting countless people to study and imitate, the heat remains high.

It can be called the most breakthrough image of the entire spring season!

Many veteran players who have quit the game were shocked upon seeing it: what the hell, the male gun got reworked? After the rework it even became a jungler? Even if an ADC could jungle, that's fine, but it can actually evaporate a person in one second?

XDM? Who is this person? He can actually raise pigs in the factory chief's jungle...

You've grown this handsome, you must be tired, right?

In the few days after the semifinal, Xu Dongmen and the others spent most of their time in free training.

Only the final BO5 of the spring season remains; aside from them and RNG, all other teams are on break, so there's no opponent for practice matches.

At the crucial moment, head coach Pu Longyun played a role, successfully arranging a scrimmage with SKT.

After all, he came from SKT himself, so connections matter.

The practice match against SKT lasted an afternoon.

The result was rather dismal: 1 to 6.

SKT won six games, QG only won one.

The strength disparity is huge!

The next day, when Pu Longyun shamelessly requested a rematch again, he was rejected by SKT.

They felt the training effect was limited and didn't want to play with them anymore.

"It's understandable; the LCK spring finals are on the same day as ours, so they definitely value the quality of practice matches at this time."

With no practice matches available, Xu Dongmen and the others could only maintain their feel through ranked play.

Zone One, Ionia.

At this time, Xu Dongmen's score was around 500 points, basically matching him with streamers and pro players every game.

The Zone One champion of Season 6 is still quite prestigious.

What Dopa, Theshy, Jackeylove, and Ning Wang Ming Wang are all hanging out on the ladder.

The ranked quality is still pretty high!

Three days before the finals, the QG members went out for a full day of outdoor shooting to film a promotional video for the finals.

The shooting venue was the spring finals arena; when Xu Dongmen and the others arrived, the stage was still being built, but this didn't affect their filming task.

QG and RNG, the two finalist teams, had a total of 12 members participate in the promotional video shoot.

On the QG side, Swift participated as a substitute; on the RNG side, it was Niu Rou Mian AD.

After failing to coordinate with the hot pot in the semifinal and having Condi steal the dragon for a comeback, Namei was benched and became a team substitute.

During the shoot, Xu Dongmen could clearly feel that this once‑king‑of‑the‑world ADC anointed by the fists was being sidelined by the team.

Just like Doinb a month and a half ago, nobody on the team wanted to play with him!

Seeing the lone Namei, Lin Ke promptly reached out: "Jiawen Ge, long time no see, why are you the only one here?"

"My filming task ended early, so I came out to have a smoke and relax." Namei tossed away his cigarette butt; after leaving EDG, he has been with Royal for over a year.

During his time with Royal, he experienced demotion, transfers, and being a substitute; after finally making it to the Impure World Reincarnation RNG, he teamed up with Mata, hoping for a second spring, but instead he's been constantly aggrieved, with no standing in the team at all……

In the semifinal, he was carried off the stage still in his chair at the final game, and then lost his starting spot in the finals as well.

Even filming a final promotional video only had one line, and after filming he was told to scram.

What does it mean to be frustrated and unfulfilled!

"Come on, have another one, don't rush off yet—it's been ages since I last chatted with you. By the way, we probably haven't added each other on WeChat yet, right?" Lin Ke acted warmly, voluntarily lighting a cigarette for the other person.

"Scan me." Namei took a deep drag, then pulled out his phone.

This ID of Namei is not derived from One Piece; the Chinese name is not Nami but Nama, and it originally consisted of four characters.

After adding each other on WeChat, the two chatted while blowing smoke and shooting the breeze.

Just then, RNG manager Quan Zhonghe arrived at the smoking area: "Nama? Lin Ke? What are you two doing here?"

Seeing his own player get so close to Lin Ke, Quan Zhonghe immediately grew wary.

After perfunctorily responding with a few words, he directly took the person away, leaving Lin Ke alone there, smiling foolishly.

One can't blame Quan Zhonghe for being so wary; after all, the infamous QG manager's notoriety is widespread.

Last summer, that is, the 2015 LPL Summer Season, on the eve of the summer finals, Lin Ke caused a huge sensation in the esports world!

With LGD, Chris, and Youfeng Ge around, no matter how you ban, it won't be bad, right?
