League of Legends: Unrivaled

Chapter 9: Chapter 9 Treat me to ice cream



When they saw the crystal being knocked down, Class 1 erupted in excitement.

They were still ten kills short, yet they'd won. It was unbelievable.

Amidst the resounding cheers from Class 1, Class 2 hung their heads like defeated roosters.

Even Chen Yao asked in disbelief, "How did we lose? How did we lose?"

No one answered.

In fact, they themselves hadn't yet realized how they'd lost; they could only watch helplessly as Class 1 cheered.

"Fatty Mao, that flash R at the end was amazing."

"That's right, thanks to you stunning two people at once, we rushed in and took them down."

"Fatty Mao, so you're the real expert."

"Hey, I'm awesome, of course. Look how surprised you are. I'll help you play ranked games from now on."

"Your Annie damage is incredible. Are you a support or not?"

"If you hadn't told me, I'd have forgotten. Fatty Mao, you're a support. Your damage is even more incredible than the mid laner."

"...Stop talking. Let's think about what to eat tonight. 500 yuan, haha, I'm dying of laughter."

A group of people gathered around Fatty Mao, laughing happily.

The teamfight in mid lane just now had let out all the frustration they'd been holding back for the entire game. No wonder they were so happy; they finally felt proud.

Xia Xin smiled, sharing the joy of victory with everyone.

Although the biggest contributor was his impressive three-kill counterattack under the tower, otherwise this game would have lasted at least another 20 minutes, and the outcome would have been unpredictable,

No one paid any attention to his Bronze 5 screen.

He didn't care. As long as the result was a win and everyone was happy, he didn't care who got the credit.

Suddenly, he felt a slight pain in his thigh.

Looking down, he saw a pair of delicate white hands tightly grasping his thigh.

It was Shu Yuewu's hand.

Xia Xin glanced at her in confusion, noticing a thin layer of sweat on Shu Yuewu's forehead.

Is it hot here? He wasn't sweating even while playing, but she was?

Shu Yuewu then realized that she had nervously gripped Xia Xin's thigh. Her palms and the backs of her hands were now covered in sweat.

For the first time, she knew League of Legends could be so thrilling. The heartbeat of life and death, the split-second reactions, the countless skills dodged, the sultry waist twisting in a terrifying way, and the excitement of a desperate comeback, the immense joy of turning defeat into victory, all made her tremble with joy.

At this moment, she had only one thought: This match was amazing!

It was amazing because of one person.

Could League of Legends really be played like this?

She said "sorry" and withdrew her hand from Xia Xin's thigh. Her breath was still a little short, she was still immersed in the excitement of that exciting triple kill.

The excited faces of Class 1 formed a stark contrast to the dejected faces of Class 2.

The two armies faced off.

Chen Yao reluctantly handed over 3,000 yuan to Shu Yuewu.

Shu Yuewu directly distributed 500 yuan to each of the five players, and Class 1 immediately cheered again.

Seeing Chen Yao glaring at her, as if she wanted to bite her to death, Shu Yuewu put on a triumphant air and said, "Don't worry, I won't look for Lu Ming again. He's yours."

Chen Yao was puzzled. "What do you mean?"

Wasn't the competition between the two of them originally intended to get Lu Ming to teach her how to play League of Legends? Of course, that was a euphemism; to put it bluntly, it was about stealing her boyfriend.

Shu Yuewu smiled nonchalantly, "That's what I mean."

Because she'd found someone even more interesting.

Lu Ming didn't even look at the others, staring intently at Xia Xin. "I want to go solo with you."

Xia Xin was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "No need. I'm no match for you. I just had better luck."

Lu Ming gritted his teeth and said, "That's right. Back then, under the tower, I had a 40% critical hit chance, but I didn't get a single critical hit in three attempts. You had a 55% critical hit chance, and all three of your attacks were critical. Even if I had gotten one more critical hit, or you had one less, the outcome would have been different."

Xia Xin nodded. "Yes, I was just lucky."

With that, he followed Fatty Mao and his group away.

But in his heart, he was certain, "Regardless of whether I get a critical hit or not, the outcome of this match remains the same."

Lu Ming stared at Xia Xin's back, unable to let go.

Led by Shu Yuewu, the team arrived at a famous food stall nearby.

In addition to the five players competing, there were also those who had come to watch and cheer, totaling over a dozen people.

Shu Yuewu smiled, "Everyone, eat your fill! I'll treat you all. Thank you for supporting me in the game and cheering me on, allowing Class 1 to defeat Class 2. Of course, the biggest contributor is definitely..." Shu Yuewu glanced at the crowd, passing by Xia Xin, and continued, "Of course, it was Fatty Mao's R flash in the middle lane."

Another round of boos erupted.

Fatty Mao accepted it without a trace of modesty.

After a few beers, he began boasting, "That Lu Ming is still Diamond V? I don't think he's that great either. He couldn't hold me down in the bottom lane. I didn't feel any pressure in the last game. I guess he was just lucky to get to Diamond V."

Shu Yuewu smiled charmingly, "I think so too."

Fatty Mao also forced himself to forget the fear of being pushed under the tower in the previous two games.

He revealed his ambition at the perfect moment, chuckling, "Don't let him teach you how to play League of Legends. I'll teach you and help you rank up. I'll play support, you'll play AD carry, wholeheartedly supporting you."

"Wholeheartedly supporting" means I want to support you not only physically but also mentally.

His wicked ambition was clear as day.

The crowd erupted in laughter again. Who among the League of Legends players wouldn't want to play with a beautiful woman, especially one as sexy and alluring as this?

Who wouldn't want to show off and impress in front of a beautiful woman?

Maybe they'll even develop some new relationships.

Xia Xin spent almost the entire dinner listening to everyone bragging, and he simply smiled and agreed.

We were all still students, so we didn't dare stay too late for fear of our parents calling. As it got dark, we dispersed.

Xia Xin left without a word of what happened next.

He checked the time: 6:15. It was incredibly late.

I hurried to the farmers' market, looked around, and bought some tomatoes, eggs, eggplant, and some toppings like ginger and scallions.

Finally, I stopped at the chicken wing stall, looked around, and hesitated, walking back and forth twice. At 20 yuan for a pound, which only contained about 6 or 7 chicken wings, it was a bit pricey.

Finally, I gritted my teeth and bought it.

The extra 500 yuan today was a nice bonus, a windfall.

That guy loved cola chicken wings.

Carrying two bags, I just arrived at the market entrance when I saw a familiar figure.

Her long, fair legs were particularly eye-catching. She stood at the entrance with her arms folded.

Shu Yuewu?

Why is she here? Is she buying groceries too?

Xia Xin exchanged a glance with Shu Yuewu, smiled at her as a greeting, and walked over.

But then, Shu Yuewu put her arm around his shoulder.

Xia Xin looked at her in confusion.

Shu Yuewu smiled, "Take me home."

Xia Xin was silent.

"What? You don't want to take your classmate home?"

Xia Xin quickly shook his head. "No, which direction is your home?"

Shu Yuewu said, "Same direction as yours."

"..."

Seeing Xia Xin's stunned expression, Shu Yuewu couldn't help but smile, a cute curve forming at the corner of her delicate lips.

She let out a devilish, smug smile. "I know what you're trying to say. If I say my home is on the left, you'll say yours is on the right. If I say it's on the right, you'll say it's on the left. Do you think I can't see? Now, it's in the same direction as yours. Let's see what you have to say."

Xia Xin was truly speechless. Having his thoughts instantly guessed made him feel a little awkward.

"Hmph, I'm not happy when someone else wants to give me a ride. Am I some monstrous monster? I'm so unhappy I'm being asked to give you a ride."

Xia Xin really didn't understand what she was doing here. If she wanted someone to give her a ride home, there would have been plenty of other boys vying for it. Why would she ask him?

But she said sincerely, "I'm wrong. Please, young lady, let me go. Where's your home? We'll be leaving right away."

"If you treat me to ice cream, I'll consider forgiving you."

"..."

Walking along the riverbank, the sky darkened even darker.

Xia Xin said nothing.

Shu Yuewu, her tongue darting out, licked the ice cream intently, also remaining silent.

In fact, Shu Yuewu had been following Xia Xin all the way here since the dinner ended.

After careful observation, she came to the conclusion: Is this an ordinary boy? No, this guy, seemingly ordinary at first glance, is actually aloof and proud at heart, similar to… Shu Yuewu thought about it and thought of Vayne, the lone night hunter from League of Legends, lurking alone in the darkness to hunt his enemies.

At first glance, he seemed ordinary, blending in with the crowd, but while remaining inconspicuous, he also refused anyone approaching, maintaining only the bare minimum of courtesy.

Just now, when Lu Ming offered to play solo with him, he refused without a second thought, saying Lu Ming was superior. In fact, he could probably single-handedly defeat Lu Ming. An ordinary guy who wanted to show off in front of a girl would never say that. The two of them had already started playing solo, which showed that he didn't care.

He was different from other boys.

If you thought this guy was interested in her just because he occasionally peeked at her, you were completely mistaken.

Shu Yuewu was still searching for the right words.

Hmph, even if you were Sun Wukong, you couldn't escape my Five Finger Mountain. Looks like I'm going to have some fun for a while.

Of course, I couldn't let anyone else see such a fun toy.

Shu Yuewu suddenly stopped and looked at Xia Xin. The evening breeze ruffled a strand of hair on either side of her cheeks, tickling her delicate face. She looked absolutely stunning.

"Teach me how to play League of Legends."

"Huh?" Xia Xin paused, then said, "You can ask Mao Pang, he's much better."

Shu Yuewu raised her beautiful eyebrows. "Don't play along. I saw it all. I was staring at your screen during the match. I know how good you are. And I heard what you said to the network administrator."

"Uh..."

Shu Yuewu wasn't as simple as she appeared. Seeing Xia Xin hesitate, she added, "I'll pay."

Having seen Xia Xin hesitate for three minutes at the chicken wing stall, and then take the initiative after the prize money was added, she knew he was short on cash.

"But it's not a power leveling job. You're helping me rank up. The price can be double what a normal job would cost. I don't mind."

"...Why?"

"Why? My friends are all Diamond, but they were all helped by their brothers and friends. I'm the only one in Gold. Is it okay for me to rank up if I want to?"

Xia Xin hesitated for a minute. Just when Shu Yuewu was smugly expecting him to agree, he shook his head. "Sorry, you should find someone else."
