After Giving Up, My Rich Ex-Husband Begged Me to Return CHAPTER 79
Chapter 79: Jiang Su, Save Me
When Huo Qingyan came over, the other three teammates on the side all sat up straight, too nervous to even breathe, only daring to steal glances at Huo Qingyan.
As a result, they heard Jiang Su directly call Huo Qingyan a “noob.”
The three teammates looked at Jiang Su with awe.
Is there really someone as arrogant as this?
This is Huo Qingyan!
Jiang Su dares to scold him?
As a CEO whose leisure activities consisted of data analysis, reports and business events, Huo Qingyan didn’t understand internet slang.
He could barely analyze from the literal meaning that “noob” wasn’t a good word.
If he encountered this kind of problem normally, his omnipotent assistant would solve his worries.
But his assistant was watching the competition downstairs.
So… what does noob mean?
Jiang Su noticed Huo Qingyan’s slightly strange expression and tentatively asked Huo Qingyan: “You…”
Out of instinct to protect Huo Qingyan, he paused, subconsciously lowering his voice: “Don’t you even know what noob means?”
Huo Qingyan looked at him with a curious expression, and nodded very seriously.
Jiang Su: …
He actually lived with such an old-fashioned person for two years??
Jiang Su said with a complicated tone: “Noob means to insult someone for being bad at playing games.”
Huo Qingyan looked enlightened and then chuckled: “Oh.”
Jiang Su: ??
This man is actually laughing?
Laughing after being insulted?
Jiang Su started to wonder if he should explain further: “I said I was insulting you just now.”
Huo Qingyan: “Mm.”
He didn’t seem to not understand.
The competition venue was noisy. Everyone playing had to wear headphones to communicate. Jiang Su and Huo Qingyan’s conversation was deliberately hushed and close, so the three teammates couldn’t hear what they said even when they strained their ears.
The director kept the camera focused on Jiang Su and Huo Qingyan.
The live stream viewers, like the three teammates, were curious about what Jiang Su and Huo Qingyan had said.
The barrage at this moment:
【The Serious Couple is in the same frame!!】 【Do you need to pay to hear what they said?? Microphone, please!! I have money, I want to hear!!】 【Su Su and CEO Huo are so close together ahhhh, so well-matched!!】 【I’m willing to be a vegetarian for ten years in exchange for the Serious Couple getting married!】
The Academic Power Couple’s fans, though late, had arrived.
They immediately started subtly dissing Jiang Su in the barrage:
【Look at Jiang Su, such a lickspittle, CEO Huo doesn’t even care about him!】 【This is hilarious, what kind of status does Huo Qingyan have, how could he possibly like Jiang Su??】 【I advise you all to break up quickly, don’t live in a dream, wait until Huo Qingyan clarifies! The ones who will lose face are yourselves.】
Some passersby couldn’t stand it: “Aren’t you guys watching carefully? It wasn’t Huo Qingyan who spoke to Jiang Su first!”
The Academic Power Couple fans selectively pretended to be blind and chased after this netizen to scold them.
The Serious Couple fans also joined the battlefield and clashed with the Academic Power Couple fans:
【You’re just jealous! Anyway, Huo Qingyan doesn’t like your Academic Power Couple.】 【Who is living in a dream? Huo Qingyan has already clarified that he has nothing to do with Lin Si Yue, the ones who should break up are you!】 【Yeah, what kind of status does Huo Qingyan have, how could he possibly like your almost bankrupt Academic Power Couple?】 【Save some mobile data money and donate it to your Academic Power Couple, otherwise you won’t even have money to hire water army later…】
…
Jiang Su didn’t know the barrage had already turned into a battlefield.
The second game had entered the BP stage.
The coach’s cautious voice sounded in the headphones: “CEO Huo, what position do you want to play?”
Huo Qingyan: “Marksman.”
The MVP of the last game was the retired player who had been replaced by Huo Qingyan, and he played the marksman position.
Huo Qingyan thought the marksman position was pretty good.
His voice was calm and steady, convincing.
If Jiang Su hadn’t known Huo Qingyan, and known that Huo Qingyan hadn’t played this game before, he would have thought Huo Qingyan was a gaming expert.
The coach had no doubts: “Okay, then we…”
“Coach.” Jiang Su interrupted the coach, “I’ll play marksman, let’s change positions for CEO Huo.”
If Huo Qingyan played marksman, this game was definitely going to crash and burn.
The coach was a little confused: “Ah?”
If Jiang Su played marksman, there would be a vacant support position.
Anyone who has played this game knows that the support’s role is to take the least money and receive the most beatings.
The coach was stunned: “This…”
He didn’t dare let Huo Qingyan play support.
A low, deep male voice sounded in the headphones: “Okay.”
…
Jiang Su’s best marksman was Marco, so the coach chose Yao for support.
While the game was loading, Jiang Su looked at the delicate Yao Princess, then at Huo Qingyan, who looked aloof next to him, and inexplicably wanted to laugh.
But soon, he couldn’t laugh anymore.
Huo Qingyan had never played this game before, he had only watched one game, and didn’t even know how to use his skills.
But this didn’t stop Huo Qingyan.
He quickly figured out how to use the skills.
Especially Yao Princess’s ultimate move, attaching and giving a shield, he could always accurately find Jiang Su’s Marco in the crowd and attach to him.
The first time Yao attached to Marco, a wave of exclamations rang out from the audience.
Jiang Su couldn’t hear the outside sounds with his headphones on.
But he himself felt something was strange.
Until Huo Qingyan once again abandoned a low-health teammate being chased, attaching to Jiang Su’s full-health Marco, Jiang Su said impatiently: “Huo Qingyan, why do you keep attaching to me?”
Huo Qingyan looked at him sideways, his gaze deep and gloomy, clearly showing no emotion, yet inexplicably making Jiang Su feel restless.
Jiang Su also realized that his words were ambiguous, his ears turning red.
He said fiercely: “Don’t follow me around.”
Huo Qingyan’s gaze fell on his reddened ears and asked him: “Why?”
Jiang Su’s tone was even fiercer: “You’re too bad, you’re dragging me down.”
The other teammates heard Jiang Su’s words through the headphones and turned to look at the two of them.
But Huo Qingyan still had that indifferent expression, showing no sign of anger, and seriously said: “Okay.”
The teammates were all shocked.
Wasn’t it said that this business tycoon was resourceful and had a bad temper?
Just this?
He can actually tolerate this?
Huo Qingyan stopped following Jiang Su and started following other teammates.
The other teammates vaguely understood that Huo Qingyan was a noob. Although they were in awe of Huo Qingyan, e-sports had no feelings.
The other teammates basically didn’t care about Huo Qingyan’s life or death.
Leading to Huo Qingyan’s glaring record: 0-13-0.
While Jiang Su’s record was: 5-0-7.
In comparison, Huo Qingyan felt embarrassed for the first time.
When he was surrounded again, Huo Qingyan asked Jiang Su for help.
“Jiang Su, save me.”
He didn’t want to feed kills and lose face anymore.
