ă43ă Comeback Victory; Securing a Spot in the Promotion/Relegation MatchÂ
In his room, Wen Ran remembered the absurd events of last night and his face flushed red with shame.
Jiang Yan was truly worthy of having been single for over twenty years… [Redacted content about the intimate night].
He had never imagined that there would be a person biting his ear and teaching him this.
He hadn’t locked the door, only closed it. Thus, when Jiang Yan pushed the door open, this was the scene he sawâ
Wen Ran was lying on the bed, who-knows-what he was thinking about, his face buried in the blanket. He was still wearing Jiang Yanâs shirt.
He was completely unguarded, just like a little kitten.
Jiang Yanâs gaze darkened. He went over and slapped his rear.
Wen Ran: “??!”
Wen Ran, whose rear had suddenly been slapped, bounced up. “What are you doing?”
“Men should maintain distance!” Wen Ran retreated a few steps. “Stay away from me!”
His white, tender little feet were pressed against the edge of the bed.
Jiang Yan looked down at Wen Ran. Likely from rolling around on the bed just now, another button had come undone. With such a large collar opening, his collarbones were clearly visible.
“What? Didn’t it feel good yesterday?” Jiang Yan placed Wen Ranâs team uniform on the bed. “Now that you’ve had your fun, you’re not going to recognize me?”
Wen Ran hadn’t been thinking of anything good, and being asked that by this shameless man made his face turn even redder.
“Nonsense!”
“Oh? Who was it that was calling me ‘Gege’ so energetically yesterday? The ‘little pudding’ who wanted kisses and hugs.”
He deliberately emphasized the words “little pudding.”
Then he looked at Wen Ran: “Are you a puppy?”
“You’re the puppy!”
Wen Ran had long since turned into a cooked shrimp. In his embarrassment, he held out his palm in front of Jiang Yan: “Clearly you took advantage of me while I was drunk and bullied me!”
The slender, fair hand had a slightly chafed palm that showed a hint of pink.
Wen Ran complained huffily: “Look for yourself!”
To his surprise, Jiang Yan directly grabbed his wrist and slowly pulled Wen Ranâs hand closer to himself.
“I was wrong. Ran Ran worked hard.”
When he lowered his voice, he sounded exactly like Wind. Wen Ranâs mind couldn’t help but associate last night’s events with his idol, giving rise to a sense of “immoral” guilt.
How can I think like that! It’s an insult to my idol and unfair to Jiang Yan!
Wen Ran turned completely red. After apologizing to Wind in his heart, he tried to pull his hand back awkwardly:
“Alright, your ‘father’ understands.” “You can leave now.”
As it turned out, Jiang Yan wouldn’t let him leave. “How can that be?” He curled his lips and smiled: “I haven’t given Ran Ran compensation yet.”
Before Wen Ran could realize what this compensation was, he saw Jiang Yanâs handsome face descending inch by inch. He then kissed the center of Wen Ranâs palm and gave it a light lick.
He looked up at Wen Ran.
Jiang Yanâs looks were top-tier, like a celebrity. Otherwise, Wen Ran wouldn’t have chosen him at the internet cafe at first sight. Now, with this look and posture, there was an added sense of sexiness.
For a moment, a numbing sensation like an electric current swept through Wen Ranâs entire body.
Flushed with shame, Wen Ran used all his strength and kicked Jiang Yan off the bed.
Ignoring the fact that his wrist was still being held, the two fell onto the floor with a loud thud.
Jiang Yanâs back hit the floor hard, but heâd reached out to protect Wen Ranâs head.
Song Zixuan heard the commotion and immediately ran in: “What happened? What happened?”
He was still holding a cleaning rag, looking at the two people on the floor in a state of petrification.
After three seconds of silence, Song Zixuan seemed to understand something.
These two had finally started fighting.
And it seemed it was a fierce fight.
Otherwise, why would there be such a loud noise?
He hallucinated a scene where the brother came to settle the score and Wen Ran, with his fiery temper, found the other person too pretentious, leading to a violent brawl. It was too brutal.
As an envoy of peace, Song Zixuan felt he couldn’t stand by. He rushed over regardless, pried Jiang Yanâs hand off Wen Ranâs wrist, and pulled him up.
“Brother, youâre highly educated. How can you be so petty? Itâs just a bedsheet. If Wen Ran dirtied it, so be it. At most, just make him mop the floor.”
The “petty” Jiang Yan: “?”
Then Song Zixuan whispered in Wen Ranâs ear: “Wen Ran, a real man has to know when to yield. Look at your thin arms and legs, you little shorty. Fighting him is just asking to be beaten up, isn’t it?”
The “little shorty” Wen Ran: “?”
Until now, Song Zixuan hadn’t figured out why the two of them eventually left the house together and made him mop the floor twice.
After yesterday’s match, Wen Ranâs Weibo followers had increased by several tens of thousands.
Someone had even started a Super Topic for him.
Wen Ran had fifty thousand followers, yet the Super Topic had twenty thousand participants.
The fans called themselves “Little Roses.”
[Little Roses?? Are you sure?]
[We are the Little Roses, not him. Otherwise, while other fans are called ‘Little Yellow Beans’ or ‘Xinxin,’ weâd be called ‘Toxic Tumors.’ Thatâs not great.]
[Agreed. Let him bear the ‘Toxic Tumor’ name himself. I am a beautiful and noble Little Rose!]
[Yes. I don’t want to go to an event and have other fans shouting: ‘The Toxic Tumors are here!’ How embarrassing!]
[Dawn’s actions do not represent his fans, thank you.]
[I thought there wouldn’t be many people in this Super Topic. There are actually twenty thousand Little Roses.]
[As everyone knows, those who join aren’t necessarily fans. They might be anti-fans. I’ll confess, I am one. Next time, Iâll be the first to mock him!]
[I accidentally gifted him something, and he mocked me for being ‘noob’ and told me to learn skills from him. Iâm so angry!]
[Did you all watch yesterday’s match?]
[This toxic tumor really dares to speak. ‘The opponents gave too many opportunities.’ Yang is an SDL champion, yet he makes him sound like a scrub.]
[Is this little flamer really that arrogant?]
[What kind of disgusting things are you people? You’ll fan any garbage. And ‘Little Roses’? Iâm literally gagging. Treating Sister Youzi like that… fans are just as disgusting as their idol!]
[Seems like some filth has mixed in. Not sure, letâs see.]
[Oh please, is Youzi some kind of saint? She has nothing to do with Ye Xin, yet she insisted on bringing him up. Anyone with eyes could see she was digging a pit for Dawn. But Dawn is smart and left her speechless.]
[Block and begone. I haven’t even started mocking him yet, who do you think you are?]
[Can only say itâs a regular operation. It would be strange if he accepted an interview obediently.]
Wen Ran hadn’t logged onto Weibo yet, so he hadn’t seen these. The next match was in three days. Although theyâd won the first one, they couldn’t afford to be careless. Thus, Wen Ran didn’t linger at home and went back to the base.
Zhang Xu greeted him: “Dawn? Youâre back early.” “Did your ‘Jiang’ pick you up yesterday?”
Wen Ran couldn’t help but cough twice at the mushy address. “Ahem… yeah.”
“Thatâs good,” Zhang Xu said. “I drank too much yesterday too. None of those guys are reliable. Only you knew who to call.” “Later I went to the bathroom, and when I came out, you were gone. Itâs good that you made it back.”
Wen Ran: “I didn’t say anything weird, did I?”
“No,” Zhang Xu said. “I even asked if you wanted me to call a car since I remember you live in D City.” “But you just pointed at your contact list and said ‘Jiang’.”
Wen Ran felt he was dying of embarrassment. Luckily Jiang Yan didn’t know, otherwise, who knows how much heâd tease him.
Was I that clingy to Jiang Yan when I was drunk?
The schedule for the next few days was tight. Wen Ran didn’t have many chances to go home. He would only occasionally eat with Jiang Yan and wouldn’t stay long.
However, he received messages every day, and from time to time, he received flowers sent by Jiang Yan.
They were all sent to the base.
This made the others at the base quite envious.
“Dawn received flowers again?” The ladies in the PR department were already used to it. “Your partner is truly romantic!”
Wen Ran was thin-skinned to begin with and didn’t know how to face those burning, curious gazes. He could only hurry back to the dorm clutching the flowers.
Those ladies felt their hearts melting. How can he be so cute!
DS used to be a strong team. It was just that because Ye Xinâs individual strength was so outstanding, most of their systems were built around him. Thus, once Ye Xin couldn’t play, the substitutes couldn’t keep up and many systems became useless. Combined with the short time for synergy, they had suffered continuous defeats.
Lingxiao is a team game. If even one person falls, itâs easy for an opening to be found. But these players were, after all, once members of a glorious strong team. Now Wen Ranâs arrival completely filled the gapâin some areas, he was even more outstanding than Ye Xin.
When Ye Xin was there, they played a “protect the carry” style. But while Wen Ran was brave enough to charge forward, he also paid attention to his teammates’ status. He would trustingly leave his back to his teammates, leaning more toward team-wide victory.
In fact, after playing together many times, the other players also knew Ye Xinâs styleâhe cared a lot about his KDA. Thus, he would sometimes “sell” his teammates. After a game, his data panel would be the best-looking.
But Wen Ran was different. He would sacrifice himself, teleporting into the fray to take down the enemy’s carryâsomething Ye Xin wouldn’t do, but Wen Ran would. Because doing so created more space for his teammates to perform, laying the foundation for victory.
In the final deciding game against Team PLN, with DS at a disadvantage, Wen Ran took the initiative to suggest a flank.
“The opponents will likely launch a strong assault on the high ground in a bit. Top Lane, go up first to absorb skills. Support, use Interference. ADC, stay further back and don’t get caught, just clear the minions,” Wen Ran said. “The Jungler and I will flank them from the Blue and Red buff zones respectively.”
“Jungler, give a fake vision. After circling back, directly cut their carry.” “Do as much damage as possible. Leave the rest to me.”
Although the idea was very risky, the others didn’t question the “all-in” decision too much. They were a team; the first thing they had to do was trust their teammates.
Sure enough, as Wen Ran expected, after the Jungler depleted the opponents’ health bars, he was focused down and died. The Top Laner also fell from absorbing damage.
“Dawn, it’s up to you!” “Mhm.”
On the screen, Ren Ling teleported in, directly controlling the two low-health carries. Ultimate used to harvestâDouble Kill!
The second skill’s damage briefly slowed the enemy Support. Ren Lingâs skill slots were now entirely empty. The enemy Top Laner and Jungler, each with one-third health, immediately followed up. The coordination of Ultimates and control took Wen Ran down directly.
DS had been waiting for this moment. With no threat skills left against the ADC, Four-Leaf Clover and Ai Fan coordinated their pursuit. The super-high burst damage blasted the opponents into dust.
There were minions in the mid lane, and with only one enemy Support left, the Crystal couldn’t be defended.
“Congratulations to DS for securing a spot in the promotion/relegation match!”
Ai Fan hugged Wen Ran excitedly. “Dawn, youâre amazing!”
“Weâre going to play the promotion/relegation match!” Four-Leaf Clover was also excited. “Weâre going back to Group A!”
The final game was thrilling. Although it was risky, they won! Under their coordination, theyâd pulled off a comeback victory!
Ye Xin was currently watching the match on stream. When the camera showed Four-Leaf Clover and Ai Fan with their arms around Wen Ranâs shoulders, praising him for his strength, Ye Xin felt very jealous.
Whatâs so great about him? Heâs just a rookie.
