The Little One Needs Comforting Again [Esports]

[An early work. Thanks for supporting the official version.]

After two years of fighting his way through the esports scene, Qie Xiao had become an undisputed legend in the industry, someone no one dared mess with.

But word was, the new rookie who’d just joined ARK loved charging straight into trouble.

The general public: Who’s Qie Xiao? He cares more about his reputation than anything else. You think he’d let people push him around?

But after a while, it seemed the rookie wasn’t just avoiding a scolding. He was walking all over the team captain.

Qie Xiao: Captain, I was wrong. Is that okay?

Yan Ming: I can’t be placated anymore.

Qie Xiao: (acting cute)

Yan Ming, turning away with a red face: ...No. You can’t make it up to me.

The internet: ...Just ship them. What else can we do?

One day, humble Qie the dog finally evolved and learned to fight back.

Taking advantage of the fact that they were alone in the hot spring pool, just a man and his dog, he kissed Yan Ming until he was breathless. "You like me."

Yan Ming tried to keep his footing. "I don't like you."

Qie Xiao: "You should call me Captain."

Yan Ming: "Captain, mm..."

# Some details are original to this story. The competition format is based on real ones, but there isn't much gameplay description.

# The top appears first. The top dotes on the bottom. The top dotes on the bottom. The top dotes on the bottom.
