A Shattered Persona

Pseudo-siblings | Esports | Male secret crush | Male lead fights his way to the top | Devoted boyfriend

Remember is the real name of a professional player in Gods at War, the hottest five-versus-five competitive MOBA mobile game around.

He stands 187 centimeters tall, with a slender build and handsome, striking features. He won the championship in his very first season, which helped him gain a huge following in just one year. But that wasn’t what truly drove his fans wild.

Most of the time, he kept a straight face. He would only smile faintly after winning a match, and was otherwise almost entirely expressionless.

He never tried to pander to his fans, but that handsome face of his made the contrast all the more charming, and fans couldn’t help finding him cute.

So Remember’s fan forum was full of not only his highlight plays, but also plenty of handsome photos of him looking cold and serious!

Just as this aloof image had become firmly established, to the point where even a newbie who had just started playing Gods at War knew Remember was a cold person, Chu Xunming won his second championship.

In the post-match interview, while all his teammates thanked their girlfriends or future partners, Chu Xunming broke character. With his eyes lowered and his cheeks flushed, he said shyly, “I want to thank my older sister.”

The internet exploded…

Later, on a sunny afternoon, renowned Chinese illustrator Eternity posted a picture on Weibo, captioned: “My two dogs.”

The picture showed a woman, a man, and a dog.

The woman’s face wasn’t visible, only her body from the neck down. She appeared to be sitting in a rocking chair, with the man and the dog lying on either side of her legs.

Fans of both recognized at once that the man was Remember.

The internet exploded again…

[If I’m seeing this right, Remember himself took this photo, right? The esports player?]

[Why is he smiling so happily? Do you know your aloof image is in pieces on the floor?]

After learning that Chu Xunming liked her, Zhang Anheng couldn’t accept it at first.

But they were in the middle of the summer season, and Zhang Anheng was afraid that rejecting Chu Xunming outright would affect his mindset.

So she decided to turn a blind eye.

She would let Chu Xunming do as he pleased, as long as she could keep her own feelings in check.

…

She had, in fact, kept her feelings in check. So why had Chu Xunming already kissed her on the mouth?!!!
