LOL, S12

JST successfully defended its title. ADC Lin Jiangyi claimed FMVP again, securing his place as the LPL's number one player.

A month later, news broke that JST substitute ADC Ye Xing was transferring to TX.

Ye Xing was Lin Jiangyi's handpicked protégé, the successor he'd personally trained. The transfer announcement sparked all kinds of speculation.

Some said Ye Xing was too proud to serve as a substitute for the league's top player. Others said Lin Jiangyi was still in his prime and didn't want anyone eyeing his starting position from behind the scenes.

Some even claimed the two had broken up and couldn't stand the sight of each other anymore.

But no one knew that Lin Jiangyi had personally escorted Ye Xing to TX.

"Your club needs to buy this shampoo. Our Xingxing really loves her long hair."

"And please warm up two cups of milk for Xingxing every day. She's still growing."

"Oh, and Xingxing is rather shy and doesn't talk much. Please be patient with her if she seems a little awkward."

The TX team manager could only nod rapidly as the famous player rambled on, assuring him they could handle everything.

A month later.

"God Lin, Xingxing cut her own hair in her room."

"God Lin, Xingxing only drinks cola. She says she'll leave the club if we give her milk again."

"God Lin, Xingxing made our 180-centimeter-tall jungler cry again."

Lin Jiangyi: ...Could this be puberty?

Ye Xing: Old Lin, you can't lose before I beat you.

Lin Jiangyi: I'll be waiting!

"I'm Just a Substitute Player [Moonlight Blade]"

A little reassurance: This is set in the Moonlight Blade game. Feel free to read even if you've never played!

On the "Five Sacred Mountains Seek Immortals" server, zone two, "Sword Roars in the West Wind," there was a Shenwei senior disciple, obscenely rich and swift to act.

Shenwei players both loved and hated her. They loved how she made their class look good, but hated how her substitute player, "Bald but Not Bald," was so ridiculously good.

In the S12 online tournament, she ignored class counters and took the top spot in the zone.

Winning wasn't enough for her. She also had a sharp tongue. During a duel, she mocked the first zone's Tai Bai senior disciple, who was playing in person: "Uncle, you just retired this year, right? It's impressive you can still click that fast!"

And then there was her classic line: "It's not that Shenwei is strong. I'm strong." In other words, what are you noobs whining about?

The person who hated her most was Seven Young Master, the first zone's Tai Bai senior disciple. Every day, he'd log in with an alternate account in zone two so Bald but Not Bald could humiliate him, like it was a daily quest.

But since he couldn't beat her in the game or win an argument, Seven Young Master, who considered himself a macho man, came up with an idea: a real-life fencing match.

Seven Young Master: "This offline tournament is a once-in-a-lifetime chance. I'll show that brat who's the real macho man!"

Seven Young Master: "Just you wait, little chick!"

Not long afterward...

Seven Young Master: "How the hell are you a woman? And you used a voice changer this whole time!!!!"

"Date the Nation's Son"

When Qi Sansheng discovered her boyfriend was cheating, she was out shopping with her future mother-in-law.

She'd been at her beck and call, patiently enduring everything and smiling as her future mother-in-law scolded her.

After buying her future mother-in-law an expensive necklace, she had barely stepped out the door when she ran straight into her ex-boyfriend, arm in arm with another woman.

It was an ugly scene. After seven years of devotion, this was all she had to show for it. Qi Sansheng couldn't care less about saving face, but she never expected to be blamed when it was three against one.

In the scuffle, her future mother-in-law shoved her hard. She lost her balance and was about to fall when someone caught her from behind.

"Sis, I told you your taste wasn't great." Xu Zhuoran looked displeased. He pulled her behind him, then said to the three people in front of them, "If you want to keep this dignified, then let's call the police."

Xu Zhuoran's arrival put a temporary stop to the farce, and he took her back to his home.

Qi Sansheng had known Xu Zhuoran since childhood. Their families lived across the hall from each other, and Xu Zhuoran was seven years younger than her. He also had an older sister.

Unlike the Qi family, the Xu family was close-knit, and his parents were deeply in love. Many times, while listening to her parents argue and biting her nails, Qi Sansheng had thought how wonderful it would be if she'd been born into the Xu family too.

After she moved out, she hadn't seen Xu Zhuoran in a long time. She'd only heard in passing that he'd had seventeen girlfriends in seven years, so she didn't think much of him either.

"Sis, come on. I'll get revenge for you!"

The next day, Xu Zhuoran, dressed in leather from head to toe and wearing sunglasses, knocked on Qi Sansheng's door.

The male lead isn't a playboy. Rumors and gossip really do hurt people!
