FOG

One mill-... Puppy forgot to breathe. One hand around his chopsticks and another on his keyboard, he coughed.

I opened my mouth ten times... Puppy relaxed after a while and muttered, Now Im wondering just how much of a signing fee Yu Sui offered to dig you out from IAC that you can do something like this now...

Before I signed with Free, Ive been playing professionally for two years. I can still afford this much. Shi Luo glanced at Puppy and said in an irritated tone, What are you being all dazed for! Call it!

Oh, right. Right. Puppy cleared his throat and called to the fans in the live broadcast. No one has a higher price than this, right? One million once, one million twice, one million aand sold.

Puppy clicked on his mouse and announced, And we have a winner. Whispers first time as a play partner goes to Young Master Shi.

[Cant I just pay the 100,000? ! I really want to pay!

[666666......

[Bought for the entire night. Im dying of laughter. Shi Zai, do you think youre still in an Internet cafe?

[Hahahahaha, old fans know that Shi Zai is a famous bag of vinegar.

[Young Master Shi is rich, Young Master Shi is awesome.

[Im so grateful to Puppy. I really love Puppys webcam broadcasts, hahahaha. I love watching the teams daily interactions.

[No, Im so angry. Im standing atop my chair in anger! Evil, why are you bidding too? You can double row with Whisper at any time.

Why are you snatching away benefits from us humble players?

[Wait a minute, whats the situation now? Why did Evil bid? My memory is stuck at when these two broke apart two years ago. Whats their situation now?

[This is probably a case of the deeper the hatred, the deeper the love after reconciliation.

[Truthfully speaking, dont you think these two have been interacting a little bit too much recently?

[Was it Shi Shen who just bid?

[Seriously, I sometimes even suspect that these two are together...]

[Hey, first things first. Evil, if you bid, you have to pay up! Otherwise, its a pass and its still my 100,000 thats the winning bid.

Puppy saw the superchat Big Brother Iron Fan just sent and turned to look at Shi Luo, What are you going to do? Yu Suis fans are serious. Shi Luo, people are urging you to pay. If you dont pay up then its a pass.

If you pass, then its the 100,000 for one hour thatll be the winning bid. So, are you going to pay up or were you just talking big?

Yu Sui was reclining on the sofa. When he heard this, he raised his eyes and glanced at Puppy. He said, From the very beginning, when did I ever agree for you to auction me off?

Shi Luo looked down at his phone, Youre the king of talking big, I dont have the skills to be talking big with you. Ive transferred it already, one million.

Yu Suis mobile phone suddenly beeped with an incoming text message.

Yu Sui was momentarily startled. Then, he laughed. He really did transfer it...

Before he had hardly finished speaking, the players in the Puppys live broadcast chat went crazy.

No. Seriously? Old Qiao was originally just watching the excitement, but when he saw Shi Luo suddenly playing for real, he was suddenly frightened. He hurriedly issued out a disclaimer, saying, The team reimburses you for fees paid to training partners, the kind with a thousand yuan an hour rate.

The team has never wronged you and the team has never been stingy, but this kind of one million... the team wont be reimbursing you for that!

Of course it cant be reimbursed! Chen Huo yelled from the side, dissatisfied, Who has heard of a club reimbursing its player for a hooker?

That sounds f*cked up. Can we not refer to him as a hooker? Old Qiao turned to look at Yu Sui up and down, and said hesitantly, Although it kinda feels that way when Yu Sui plays double row with Shi Luo...

Right? Now that hes mentioned Yu Suis situation with Shi Luo, Chen Huo could feel himself getting angry all over. Didnt I say so?! From the first time Yu Suis played milktank for Shi Luo, I felt that there was something wrong with his display of skills!

It was like he was a play partner Shi Luo had found off some site. Not to mention taking him flying, he also paid attention to Shi Luos gaming experience. Isnt this what you call a play partner?

When Yu Sui first milked for Shi Luo, it sent all the players into shock. The players then sent #We Feel Sorry for Chen Huo# trending on the Weibo. Even now, Chen Huo still remembered this animosity. Chen Huo leaned back on his gaming chair.

Why was it that he more he looked at Yu Sui, the more he found him unpleasant to look at. He cursed, Really, just look at his shabby hair. Doesnt he look exactly like a hooker? Luckily, he got into this business.

Otherwise, given slag man Yus natural disposition, if we had let him roam freely in society, who know what kind of violations against public decency he would have committed?

Zhou Huo carefully looked at Yu Sui, who was reclining on the sofa, You know, I did discover some new business opportunities from Yu Sui... Its just that Shi Luo drove the price up too high. Its not gonna be easy to follow up that act.

F*ck you guys. Yu Sui smiled, Im not for sale.

Look whos talking. You just sold yourself to Shi Luo and now youre erecting an archway? Chen Huo gave a tsk-tsk. What can you expect from someone whose account is dirty? Of course, the owner is also dirty...

Zhou Huo shook his head and gave up, sighing, Fine, our team is rich enough anyway. You dont need to work as a play partner for this bit of money. Besides, apart from Shi Luo, I dont think anyone would be willing to spend a million to buy Yu Sui. Forget it.

A right and proper e-sports club, letting you talk like youre in some kind of brothel. Old Qiao looked at the time and urged, Its almost time. Lets start training. Hey, you, the one that got sold!

Yu Sui conscientiously answered, What?

Old Qiao held back a laugh, Someone paid good money for you already. So are you going to serve as his training partner now or what? If youre going up then Im going to take a break.

Yu Sui stood up from the sofa and looked at Shi Luo. Implying more than what meets the ear, he asked, Will you be using me now or will you be scheduling me for later?

Shi Luo had already sat back in his seat, chewing some gum. He muttered, ...I dont need you now. When I have use for you...Ill call you.

Yu Sui was also very open to persuasion. He smiled, Sure, Ill wait for your call.

Yu Sui went to train by himself and Old Qiao went to boot up the computer to serve as Shi Luos training partner.

Everyone was going off to train and they couldnt let the contents of formal training leak. Puppy said to the webcam, My training partners are also ready now and I cant do a live broadcast during training. This is me signing off. Everyone who liked my broadcast, please remember to subscribe.

Im closing it now. If its still early by the time I finish, Ill do another live broadcast for a couple of hours.

Turning off a live broadcast after just an hour, the fans in the Puppys live broadcast started howling in grief. Superchats and gifts were sent nonstop. Puppy clicked his tongue, If you keep this up, I wouldnt be able to bear to stop the broadcast.

Fine, fine, Ill help you guys pass on some messages... ...

U//ppTodatd fr//m n/v/e/lb(i)n.c(o)\\/m

Puppy looked at the superchats and read, Chen Ge, when are you going to do a live broadcast? I want to watch you double row with Wawa. Huhuhu

Chen Huo has finally, after much difficulty, managed to stabilized his position in the top 100 of the national server this month. He hurriedly said, Im not making any promises. No team ups. And Im telling you now.

Can you hear me? That bastard Wawa is targeting us right now because of the playoffs. Theyve already started hiding little tricks from our team! The ungrateful whelp!

See if I team up with you again!

Puppy nodded and continued to say to for one of Shi Luos fans, Shi Zai, you must eat well, rest well, smoke less, and play well in your matches. Im going to take the postgraduate entrance examination. Ill marry you when I come back from graduate school.

Shi Luo pretended not the hear the last part and only said, Good luck on your postgraduate entrance exam.

You heard that, right? I wont repeat it, and finally, lets read one for Yu Sui... Puppys eyes hurt from the overlapping superchats. He squinted hard and said, Yu Shen, you havent done a live broadcast for so many days now. I have a bad premonition.

Please start broadcasting.

Yu Sui logged into his game account and said, Were about to start preparing for the playoffs. So I wont be doing any live broadcasts for now.

Puppy was very satisfied upon hearing this. Yes, Whispers at it again, again, again. Hes started again. The most terrible time of this year hasnt officially started but slag man Yu has already forgotten all about you guys.

But its okay! Im still here for you. Let me say it for one last time. Click to subscribe.

Those who want to see them, come to my live broadcast room and Ill have my webcam on for you. Okay, okay. My training partners are here. Signing off.

Puppy turned off the live broadcast and foul language flowed out of the mouths of these players whod started their formal training. Shi Luo felt too hot and bunched his short sleeves up to his shoulders. Chen Huo kicked his shoes off again, swearing while playing a match.

Zhou Huo, couldnt bear to look at them, and went out of the training room to do some work.

Yu Sui wasnt ending business hours early. They were almost halfway through the regular season. More of Frees regular season matches were in the latter half and the further they went into the season, the more intense the games.

They needed to play the regular season matches one by one and enter the playoffs. After getting into the playoffs, they were going to charge ahead to secure one of the two places for the World Championships. They had to reserve some energy to go to Berlin and attack Sacred Sword.

Things were about to get busy. In the next month, except for Puppy, even Chen Huo wasnt going to be doing live broadcasts.

In a blink of an eye, it was the end of the month. It was finally time for their regular season match against Saint.

As last years regional champions, Saint has enjoyed a lot of privileges this season. Almost all of their regular season games were arranged by the tournament team on their own home court. On the day they were to play against Saint, Free had to get up early once again.

Traversing almost the entire city of Shanghai to get to Saints own stadium.

Really, everything else about this season aside, lets work hard to win the local division, alright? Chen Huo sat in the car and put on a neck pillow. He grumbled, Angel Sword and the others have got it too good.

Getting to play their games in a stadium less than three kilometres away from their base. They dont even have to get up early. With that much energy, they dont need to ride in a car. They can just run over there and play the match.

Zhou Huo was looking forward to it, They have got it good. There are often games in our own stadium. Fans have to buy tickets to watch the games. Except for the leagues share, the rest of the ticket sales goes to the club.

Of course, theyve got it good.

The other stadiums also have to hang a battle flag with their logo for an entire year. Old Qiao was also looking forward to it. If we can win a championship this season, then theyll have to hang Frees flag.

Shi Luo put his peripherals away, Having Bison hang our flag...that doesnt sound bad.

Yu Sui was wearing an eye mask and he smiled when he heard these words. He said in a low voice, Can your grudge get any deeper?

Yes, no matter whether they accept it or not, theyll all have to hang our flag. Just thinking about it makes me happy. Old Qiao encouraged, But first things first. Up til now, only our team and Saint have maintained our winning streak in the regular season.

Today, work extra hard and dont let them get our first blood. In any case, Saint really wants to keep their first blood. Saints manager posted this morning on Weibo that if they win against us, hell have Angel Sword open a live broadcast and sing for an hour tonight.

Fans can set what song hell sing. Angel Sword already agreed.

Shi Luo was stunned, He agreed? Is he crazy?

Nah, hes normal. Actually, this kind of thing began with our team... Puppy slowly said, Since I auctioned off Yu Sui during my live broadcast, our competitive region has gotten, lets say a bit more loose in their morals. Theyre asking if our teams going to offer some kind of fanservice?

We...we are! Zhou Huo didnt want to lose against Saints manager. He thought about it and made a decision. If we win, Ill have Shi Luo do an hour long live broadcast with the webcam turned on, how about it?

Evil, if you agree, Ill also post it on Weibo, Lets give Saint a bit of a shock before the game.

Shi Luo was just about to refuse. During his moment of hesitation, Yu Sui, who was dozing, said in a low voice, If Evil turns on his webcam...Ill also drop by to greet the viewers. Now that I think about it, I havent shown my face in any of his live broadcasts yet.

Shi Luo swallowed the words in his mouth and said, Okay, you can post it.
