After Kissing the Esports God, He Keeps Flirting With Me Chapter 92

【92】Height-Increasing Insoles

Wen Ran’s face flushed red all around. Because his skin was fair and delicate, he hadn’t used much foundation when putting on makeup, only applying a bit of lip balm. Now, he looked pink and rosy, completely devoid of any intimidation factor, making people want to bully him even more.

Wen Ran pulled his hand back, not wanting to pay any attention to this old rogue.

The Alliance had organized a grand event this time, and there were already many people inside. When Wen Ran swept his gaze across the room, he saw that everyone was dressed in suits and leather shoes.

Suits really had a completely different temperament from ordinary clothes; putting one on made it seem like a different person entirely.

Food and drinks were also prepared in the venue. Those who didn’t know better might have thought it was a grand banquet scene.

As soon as Jiang Yan entered, he was immediately abducted by the coach of STE.

Dragging Jiang Yan by the arm, the coach questioned, “You didn’t even come to say hello to me?”

“I still had things I wanted to chat with you about from the last match!”

In fact, the livestream had already started before they entered the venue.

As soon as Wind arrived, the cameras naturally focused on him.

The bullet comments from fans swiped past in a dense, overwhelming wave:

[Wind is wearing a white suit tonight! Oh my god, as expected of my male god!]

[Let’s just say, this is more than enough to walk the red carpet.]

[Who understands me? I’m dying of love for this nonchalant look of his, as if he has a plan for everything.]

[Hahahaha, this white one—if I didn’t know better, I’d think it was his wedding banquet.]

[Laughing to death. Where’s the bride? Where is the bride?]

[The bride is me, I’m right here! Hubby, when are you coming to marry me?]

[My leg suddenly hurt today, so I went to the hospital for an X-ray. The doctor said my bones were fine—turns out I like Wind down to the bone!]

[Sister in front, you’re going to kill me with laughter, hahahaha.]

[Plagiarism rate 0%, stolen.]

[Wind really has such an aura. The suit on him is simply perfection. Hiss hiss (drooling noises).]

[Envious of that top-tier figure.]

[Handsome face, good figure, and top-tier skills. Mom, how can someone be so perfect?]

[If I were Coach Ice Candy, I wouldn’t stand next to Wind even if I died. It’s clearly a crushing defeat.]

[Hahaha, are you polite? What’s wrong with our Coach Ice Candy? At least he led the team to four championships. Only looking at looks is superficial!]

[Look at Coach Tao next door. Usually, he stands with Wind whenever he can. Today, as far as the naked eye can see, he’s staying eight poles away.]

[Hahahaha, Coach Tao usually likes Dawn the most, but I haven’t seen him standing with Dawn today either.]

[By the way, now that you mention it, where did our Dawn go?]

[He’s wearing a suit today. Help, just thinking about it makes me laugh. Will he look like a kid who stole an adult’s clothes?]

[Are you polite?]

[I just saw Little Yellow wearing a suit too. He actually looked quite stylish. Beside Twilight, he looked like a young master from a chaebol family with his idiot younger brother.]

[Little Yellow has broad shoulders. This toxic tumor is thin and delicate, and not even 1.75 meters tall. Rounding up, he’s basically disabled.]

[Director teacher, please cut the camera quickly so I can find some amusement.]

[Hahahaha!]

[Are there any other players? Director teacher, show us more!]

In this venue, it was rare for good friends to gather so completely outside of competitions. Most players went to catch up with their friends. Wen Ran had no one around him, so he simply took a small cake from the table.

But before he could take a bite, he heard a familiar voice: “Dawn?”

Looking in the direction of the voice, it was Four Leaf Clover.

Four Leaf Clover had transferred to a Group A team at the time. Although the two hadn’t met in the arena, they occasionally exchanged a few messages.

“Why are you here alone?” Four Leaf Clover looked him up and down. “Where are your teammates?”

“Went to find friends, I guess.”

Four Leaf Clover was still immersed in the excitement of seeing a friend. “I haven’t seen you for so long. Did you miss me?”

Wen Ran glanced at him. “Do you want to hear the truth?”

Four Leaf Clover: “……”

“Then never mind.” He understood Dawn’s personality and didn’t take it to heart. “Dawn, did you grow taller?”

Previously, he was clearly the shortest in the team, at least half a head shorter than himself. Why did he reach his eyebrows now?

Wen Ran felt a bit uncomfortable. The hand holding the spoon paused, and his toes curled slightly tight, but he quickly adjusted. “Probably.”

“Drinking milk is that effective?” Four Leaf Clover gave a thumbs up. “Awesome.”

“What are you guys talking about?” The speaker was Xu Jiajia. He leaned over familiarly and draped an arm over Wen Ran’s shoulder.

“Wow, why didn’t you keep your previous hair?” Xu Jiajia’s slender fingers gently clamped Wen Ran’s hair ends. He looked at him with a hooked lip. The posture of the two looked incredibly ambiguous, making Four Leaf Clover involuntarily take two steps back.

“It was clearly quite unique.” Xu Jiajia lamented endlessly. “I even specially dyed mine a smoky blue intending to exchange notes with you.”

“Is it hard to maintain?” Xu Jiajia laughed. “How about you call me ‘Good Brother,’ and I’ll cover your hairstyle for tonight.”

“No need.” Wen Ran pulled Xu Jiajia’s hand off his shoulder and smiled at him. “I like black.”

[What is happening? Dawn actually changed his hair color tonight!!!]

[Damn, I was looking for pink hair in the crowd, and now you tell me he dyed it black?]

[For real, if Xu Jiajia wasn’t there, I wouldn’t have recognized him.]

[Dawn isn’t being non-mainstream anymore. My youth has ended.]

[Hiss… gotta say, this black hair actually makes him look well-behaved.]

[Except when digging through old photos, I haven’t seen him with black hair.]

[Originally, I thought with him here, Xu Jiajia wouldn’t be the only flower peacock. Now it’s great, he switched back to black.]

[The original little pink rose was nice, why change it?]

[And he seems a bit off today too. Usually, if Xu Jiajia dared to tease him like that, the grass on his grave would be eight meters high. Today, Dawn actually didn’t curse at him.]

[Very suspicious.]

[And he’s acting so good today. Mom, he really understands how to play this blue color.]

[And the cufflinks, so exquisite.]

[Little crowns, hey. Those are super expensive.]

[? Any sisters to educate me?]

[Just that pair of cufflinks on Dawn’s cuffs. Several ‘W’ (ten thousand), from a certain luxury brand.]

[Dawn is that rich???]

[Help, I used to think he was the most austere pro player, and his clothes weren’t even as expensive as mine. Turns out I was presumptuous. The only poor one is me, wuwuwu!]

[Be bolder. The Little Sprayer wouldn’t bear to buy such expensive things.]

[Last time Orange posted on Weibo. On a snowy day, he and Dawn went out to buy grilled sausages. One cost six yuan. Dawn cursed loudly asking why they didn’t just rob people, then dragged Orange back. They went out in the freezing cold, bought nothing, and went back…]

[Then could it be…]

[I also think it was given by someone else.]

[But who?]

[Who’s to say his partner isn’t a rich lady?]

[It’s not impossible. After all, although his mouth is a bit toxic, that face makes even me dizzy. Besides, mouths are used for kissing. So what if his words are unpleasant? As long as the kissing is sweet, it’s fine.]

[??? The tire tracks are on my face.]

Wen Ran was actually enduring a lot of discomfort.

Especially with Xu Jiajia chattering in his ear time and again, even asking if he wanted to get ear piercings. He really wanted to output some damage and make this annoying guy shut up.

Staying in STE where swearing meant a fine, spraying him felt like taking a Gatling gun to a feather duster.

But Wen Ran couldn’t, because Jiang Yan had told him that his parents would be watching the livestream tonight. Wen Ran didn’t want to lose face in front of the two elders. If they saw him catching people to spray daily with no manners, and being non-mainstream to boot, how could they rest assured handing their son over to him?

So Wen Ran unhesitatingly went to dye his hair back, wishing he could even hang a pair of black-framed glasses on his face.

Facing Xu Jiajia, he could only endure again and again, patiently pushing his hand away, and then politely declining using the polite phrases he had studied all night.

“No need, thank you.” “I think this is fine.” “I appreciate the kindness, but I won’t trouble you.”

Wen Ran was already exhausted from dealing with social relations. He hadn’t planned to interact much with others on such an occasion. As a result, Xu Jiajia came up and dragged him directly from the Novice Village to the Boss Raid.

And every sentence danced on Wen Ran’s landmines.

“Why do you feel so much more polite today? You weren’t like this last time I played a scrim with you. Could it be that Coach Tao adopted my suggestion about fining for swearing?”

Wen Ran: “Thank you for your suggestion, but I still feel you have some misunderstanding about me.”

“Did you grow a little taller? Are you 1.75 meters yet? How about you compare with Little Yellow in a bit? The title of ‘height floor’ might change owners.”

Wen Ran gritted his teeth. “I don’t think that’s necessary.”

In his heart, he was thinking: Can you have some ambition and not always bring up height? You even have to ask if I’m 1.75m. Your Daddy is 1.73m and can still crush you in-game, okay? And comparing with Little Yellow, why don’t you go to heaven? You can’t even manage your half of the river, yet you manage other people’s nicknames. The Pacific Police aren’t as meddlesome as you!

Wen Ran gritted his teeth and pinched his own hand. Calm down, calm down. The father-in-law and mother-in-law are watching. He must be sensible and not lower himself to the level of this ADC with a bullet stuck in his brain.

Wen Ran was terrified that if he continued communicating with Xu Jiajia, some slip-up would occur. After politely bidding him farewell, he planned to leave first. However, just as he lifted his foot, the shoe on his left foot was pulled off.

Xu Jiajia had instinctively wanted to follow him just now. Both moved their feet at the same time, and he actually stepped on the heel of Wen Ran’s shoe.

Wen Ran’s foot came out bare. Because he had used too much force, his center of gravity became unstable, and he fell backward onto the ground.

With a loud bang.

The shoe on Wen Ran’s right foot was flung into the air. In the livestream room with tens of millions of viewers, and in front of all the pro players and coaches, a thick height-increasing insole flew out of his shoe.

Ideally and impartially, it landed right in front of Xu Jiajia.

Wen Ran: “……”
