Reborn into the entertainment industry, I decided to lie low and stay out of trouble.
That is, until an esports variety show came along. To save the day, I pulled off the kind of jaw-dropping plays normally seen from a top jungler while playing support.
The trending topics exploded, and rumors that #Lin Wan was a stand-in ran rampant.
To prove my innocence, the production team forced me to take a test on the spot.
With all eyes on me, I had no choice but to pick my signature hero and direct the team using tactical signals only “he” would understand.
In the dead silence, the aloof movie star Lu Xingchen shot up from the judges' seats, knocking over his water cup.
With red-rimmed eyes, he stared at me and asked, his voice trembling, a question that had spanned two lifetimes:
“...Captain, is that you?”
He had once been the support player who helped me win our first championship, and the person I would... forever owe.
