Chapter 135 - Extra 3

Since finding out Shi Luo’s live broadcasting account’s account name and password, whenever Yu Sui was idle, he would help Shi Luo out with his live broadcasts for a bit.

Since there was absolutely no chance he’d ever be able to fill his own live broadcast hours quota, Yu Sui figured it would be better to just help his little boyfriend to fill his; that way Shi Luo could at least secure his basic broadcasting fee.

For filling his stipulated live broadcasting hours, Shi Luo’s contract fee was eight hundred thousand yuan. Even for a player of Shi Luo’s level, this wasn’t an inconsiderable amount.

Now that they’ve secured their spot for the finals, the maddest and wildest in Team Free, Shi Luo and the second maddest and wildest, Chen Huo were sent to record the pre-match trash-talking video. The rest of the team were resting at the hotel. Yu Sui had nothing to do so he opened his computer and helped Shi Luo to make up his hours.

“Whisper,” Zhou Huo, seeing how familiar and at ease Yu Sui was in logging onto Shi Luo account, advised him earnestly, “Your basic live broadcast fee is two million. If you’ve got the time, shouldn’t you go and make up your own hours. Wouldn’t you make more money that way?”

Yu Sui clicked ‘enter’ and successfully logged onto Shi Luo’s account. “I’m not lacking money.”

Puppy, to one side, said enviously, “I think Shi Luo doesn’t lack either...It’s me who’s lacking — lacking money and lacking a boyfriend like Yu Shen who would help me broadcast longer.”

There’s no one who can dote on his boyfriend like Yu Shen dotes on his boyfriend.

Puppy was a master when it came to freeloading off live broadcast traffic. Seeing that Yu Sui has opened the game client, he swiftly sent an invite to team up.

Which Yu Sui immediately clicked “rejected” on.

Puppy, neither humble nor overbearing, sent three more invitations and got three more rejections. He took off his headphones and said, “I’m not actually trying to get some fans from you. I’m really just trying to practice our cooperation. Are you saying we can’t train anymore just because not everyone’s here?”

“No training.” Yu Sui gave a blunt refusal. “I’m just playing casually. I don’t want to use my brain.”

“Did you hear that?” Puppy turned to rat him out to Old Qiao, “Yu Sui is refusing to train!”

“En, en, en.” Old Qiao was in the middle of watching a game review and didn’t have the energy to deal with Puppy. “If he doesn’t want to train then he won’t train...No, that’s...what are you doing butting into his business? Yu Sui’s just teasing Shi Luo over long distance. What are you doing meddling into those two’s business?”

Puppy resisted the urge to roll his eyes.

Old Qiao had been analyzing the key points when he was interrupted by Puppy and suddenly forgot what he wanted to record. He was not in a good mood. “Think carefully why other people have a boyfriend and you don’t! Have you thought about why?!”

Yu Sui was very humble. He entered the game and said, “Don’t praise me...The reason why I have a boyfriend is because I use the time other people use for training to tease the little guy.”

Puppy cursed and put on back his headphones.

At the same time, Shi Luo, who was at the stadium, waiting for the shoot, received a notification that someone had logged onto his account from a different location.

No need to think about it. It was just Yu Sui who was on his live account, broadcasting on his behalf again.

Evil Xuanshou, who originally had a bitch face on, waiting to record trash talk, tried his hardest to control the corners of his lips and manage his facial expressions so as not to appear too gentle and lose the combative tone of the trash talking once the official recording starts in a while.

Shi Luo put on a displeased expression for a full hour. Once the recording ended, he used his mobile phone to open the live app, too impatient to wait until they could return to the car. He entered his own live broadcast to remotely watch Yu Sui play.

Chen Huo had a sour look on his face.

Yu Sui broadcasted for two hours. He finished his broadcast just before Shi Luo and Chen Huo arrived back at the hotel. Once they were at the hotel, Chen Huo wouldn’t miss his chance to cast a snide remark at Shi Luo’s expense. Audibly clicking his tongue, he said, “Shi Shen watched his own live broadcast so intently the entire way. He didn’t even blink and he had on the live chat too. So many comments covering such a tiny phone screen. Looks like he wasn’t afraid of ruining his eyes. For pro-players their eyesight is their treasure and some people just don’t know how to cherish it... ”

Shi Luo pretended not to hear him, “Everyone’s here. Let’s play a practice match.”

Shi Luo very rarely acted lovey-dovey with Yu Sui in front of others. No matter how badly his heart was teased by Yu Sui, he could still force himself to act and pretend to be a decent person.

He completely didn’t seem like the person who, once the practice match was over, couldn’t even wait until after their meal, taking advantage of the opportunity when they were changing clothes to trap Yu Sui in the room and kiss him deeply.

“...Shi Shen.”

Nowadays, Shi Luo’s hands couldn’t behave themselves once he starts kissing Yu Sui. Yu Sui gently held Shi Luo’s hands that were threatening to work their way into his shirt, “...Please spare me. I know you’re the kind to kill and not care about the clean-up but I really can’t.”

Shi Luo buried his face against Yu Sui’s chest and took a deep breath.

“Someone asked again during the live broadcast today.” Yu Sui teased Shi Luo, “She asked when you’d make an official announcement about me.”

Shi Luo actually had a plan in mind about when to officially publicly announce his relationship with Yu Sui. As for what this plan was, they actually had a tacit mutual understanding about it.

Shi Luo was unwilling to speak openly about his plans for the announcement. He was still a bit superstitious. He always felt that this matter was similar to saying “we’ll get married after we win.” It wasn’t very auspicious. He was afraid that once he voices it out, the championship would be lost.

Yu Sui could also guess this superstitious belief of Shi Luo’s. He stopped asking and instead asked, “I’ve got another question. Which account are you going to use for the public announcement?”

Shi Luo didn’t even think about it and said, “My main account.”

Shi Luo looked at Yu Sui, on guard, “I won’t use my side account so don’t bother arguing.”

Recalling his humiliation regarding his side account, Shi Luo wanted to sink into the ground.

Yu Sui held back a smile. “Come on, use your side account. I like your side account.”

“No.” Shi Luo angrily said, “I don’t like it!”

Yu Sui scratched Shi Luo’s chin, “Use your side account...or how about we settle this with a game? If I win, you use your side account. If you win, you’ll use your main account. Should we play?”

Shi Luo hesitated for a long time. It wasn’t until Puppy came to hurry the both of them up that Shi Luo said hesitantly, “...Alright.”

What a pity that Yu Sui said this game and not the other one.

That night, after the practice ended, Shi Luo rotated his wrists and prepared to play a one on one match against Yu Sui as promised.

Shi Luo actually knew in his heart that playing one on one, if Yu Sui gets serious, he won’t have a big chance of winning whether he uses his medic account or his striker one.

But in order not to use his side account to reveal his relationship with Yu Sui, Shi Luo decided to give it his all in his fight.

Shi Luo even called room service half an hour in advance.

The room attendant brought in refreshments and Zhou Huo, bewildered, took it and put it on the coffee table. At a loss, he asked, “Who wanted the coffee?”

Shi Luo rubbed his neck, “Me.”

Yu Sui was setting up the game for the one on one mode and glanced back, “It’s one o’clock in the morning. Drinking coffee this late, don’t you plan on sleeping anymore?”

Shi Luo shook his head, “I’m fine.”

“Don’t argue.” Yu Sui said to Zhou Huo, “Throw away that coffee. He won’t be drinking it.”

Shi Luo frowned, “I’ll drink it.”

Yu Sui paused. The corners of his lips ticked up slightly. He sent an in-game message to Shi Luo.

Whisper: [Listen to me. Don’t drink it anymore. 】

Whisper: [I won’t bully you. We’ll play something a bit more fair. 】

Yu Sui deleted the custom map he had just set up.

Yu Sui found a set of playing cards and shuffled the cards, “We’ll play Fight the Landlord.”

Shi Luo: “......”

The others who were sitting paralyzed in their respective positions and hadn’t yet returned to their rooms looked at Yu Sui like he was crazy.

Old Qiao’s head was aching. “What craziness are you up to now? If this gets out, you’re dead, you know? Playing cards on the sly, you...”

“We made a bet. We’re just going to play a round. It’s not a violation of discipline.” Yu Sui used his foot to hook over a small coffee table. “Someone come and help us get the right number of players.”

Old Qiao pursed his lips. “I’m not getting involved in any gambling. I won’t help.”

Puppy was still bearing a grudge against Yu Sui for refusing to team up with him that morning. “I won’t help either.”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Zhou Huo really wanted to play, but he... He didn’t know how to.

Which left only Chen Huo.

Chen Huo rubbed his hands, eager to give it a try...

“No.” Shi Luo refused completely, “Chen Huo’s brain is no good. I won’t play with him.”

Chen Huo: “......”

“I really want to hit you so much.” Chen Huo gritted his teeth, “Little whelp...”

“You’ll have to make do.” Zhou Huo tried to smooth things over. “It’s already so late, where would we find another player for you? Just make do. Aren’t you just playing cards? Just how big is your bet? Is it that important?”

Shi Luo made as if to speak and then stopped, too embarrassed to say it. He looked Chen Huo up and down. Helpless, he said, “Fine, fine.”

Chen Huo snorted and sat down happily.

The more Shi Luo looked at Chen Huo, the more he felt he was unreliable. He felt that Chen Huo might dig a pit for himself and couldn’t help but say, “You better not f*cking...Don’t try and use this to mess with me. Just play a round and play well.”

Chen Huo simply wanted to play cards to occupy his hands. He said a perfunctory, “I know, I know.”

Shi Luo was still worried, “Would you like to drink that cup of coffee? To wake you up a bit?”

Chen Huo looked at Shi Luo, puzzled. “You...How big are the stakes you’re playing for exactly? Why are you taking this so seriously? Are you playing for money? How much did you bet for a round?”

Shi Luo’s lips moved and after a moment, he said, “One hundred million.”

Chen Huo, Puppy, Old Qiao and Zhou Huo all choked at the same time.

Puppy regretted it. “Why don’t I play instead? I also want to handle a 100 million deal...”

Chen Huo trembled, “This, this...If I pit you because I was careless, I really didn’t mean it, okay? I’m definitely going to play seriously.”

Shi Luo was a little relieved. He frowned and squatted beside the small coffee table, holding his breath.

With such a serious matter at hand, Shi Luo was taking this extremely seriously.

Yu Sui kept his eyes on Shi Luo, a smile at the corner of his lips. They hadn’t even started playing and he had already decided that he was going to throw this game.

It was just to tease his little boyfriend. He’ll just play casually for a while and just lose to Shi Luo.

Zhou Huo served as their sexy dealer. After listening to Shi Luo’s brief introduction, he nodded gravely. After shuffling the cards, he took out three cards facedown and dealt the others one by one to the players.

Zhou Huo was starting to sweat. “I don’t understand, why did you two bet so much? I’m a little nervous...”

“Nervous, my ass, just deal the cards already.” Chen Huo was actually a little nervous. “Draw lots and call the landlord. Just draw however way you like.”

Puppy helped to make a lottery and drew the lottery. Shi Luo had the most.

Over on his side, Zhou Huo has already helped deal the cards. The cards of the three players were all face down. After the cards were dealt, the three of them took their cards.

Shi Luo seriously picked up the cards one by one, his face gradually turning dark...

One 1, two Kings, two Queens, two 10s, two 9s, one 8s, two 7s, one 5, two 4s, two 3s.

AKKQQ1010997545433.

Shi Luo took a deep breath...

How can a deck of cards be so bad?

Just how the f*ck was he supposed to win with this?

Shi Luo has never been one to concede defeat. He looked at Chen Huo with fire burning in his eyes, hoping that Chen Huo was having a bit of sh*t luck so that he could make up a peasant team with Chen Huo.

Chen Huo, with a dream of one hundred million, carefully opened his cards——

one 2, two kings, one queen, two jacks, three 8s, two 7s, three 5s, two 4s, two 3s.

2AKKQJJ888775555443.

Chen Huo prayed in his heart that whoever would become his peasant teammate in a while won’t kill him...It’s really not that he’s not trying his best here.

Yu Sui has decided to play blindly and wasn’t in any hurry. He finally picked up the cards——

Double kings, three twos, three Aces, two Jacks, two 10s, two 9s, and three 6s.

KK222111JJ1010998666.

Yu Sui: “......”

Their sexy dealer asked tremblingly, “Evil, will you be the landlord?”

Shi Luo’s face was frosty: “No.”

Chen Huo swallowed, “No.”

Yu Sui, “...I’m the landlord.”

Zhou Huo gave the last three cards to Yu Sui.

One Ace, one Queen and one 6.

Very good, Yu Sui got two more bombs.

Shi Shen was still counting on Chen Huo. He frowned and said seriously, “Look carefully and play well.”

Double kings, three 2s, two bombs and three in a row... Yu Sui looked solemnly at the cards in his hand. This is so f*cking... how was he supposed to lose?

Yu Sui really did want to throw the game.

But the Heavens wouldn’t give him the chance.

Even if they were playing with their cards exposed, these two had no way to beat him.

With love for his little boyfriend in his heart, Yu Sui immediately dealt a spring. As though faced with a formidable opponent, Shi Luo and Chen Huo, the striker duo, formed a brotherly alliance but they couldn’t set down a single card. They held on to their simple trash cards until the very end.

Against the Will of Heaven, Yu Sui also couldn’t do anything.

Shi Shen’s side account, which has been accumulating dust for a long time, will finally see the light of the sun once again.

Translator’s note: Since there’s only one extra left, I decided to release that tomorrow instead of next week. So, see you all tomorrow! =)
