After Joining the Same Team as My Archrival [Esports]

[The parallel-world novel, After the Guide Commissioner Became a Widower (a space-opera Sentinel-Guide story), is now available. If you're interested, go check it out!]

A cool beauty with a warm heart and an untouchable aura × a stunning, bold, and badass big sister who sets the whole scene ablaze. League of Legends, two pros, male support and female carry. Click to see how a taciturn, aloof hunk gets wrapped around the little finger of a female thug surnamed Chu.

Serious blurb:

After the S17 season ended, the LPL transfer window was rocked by a major shake-up.

Chu Yue, former captain of K9, transferred to GA and teamed up with Shen Xing, GA's captain, as the duo in the bottom lane.

The news sent shockwaves through the entire league.

"If I remember right, aren't these two supposed to be enemies?"

"Obviously. If it weren't for Chu Yue, Shen Xing would have made it to the LPL ages ago."

"What do I do? I used to worry only about Moon God's performance. Now I'm starting to worry about Moon God's life."

"I hope Star God won't beat her into the ICU, seeing as Moon God is a girl."

When she came across that comment, Chu Yue couldn't help glancing at Shen Xing beside her.

The white-haired beauty was gaming, but seemed to notice her gaze. The air around him instantly turned even colder.

Looking at the handsome man's murderous profile, Chu Yue suddenly thought that Shen Xing might actually beat her into the ICU in a fit of rage...

PS: An unrequited crush in their youth, then rekindling their connection years later.

An alternate-universe League of Legends setting. The game is not based on the current version. Creative liberties serve the plot, and there's plenty of game content. Neither lead is based on a real person.

A small heads-up: The heroine smokes at the beginning. It's relevant to the plot.

After the Guide Commissioner Became a Widower, unserious blurb:

Shocking! A former imperial general is reborn as an unconventional redhead who makes a living scavenging trash?

After becoming the Commissioner, her sworn enemy has turned into a gorgeous widower?

After their reunion, the aloof Commissioner won't let go of my hand. Thanks for asking, my late wife and long-lost love is me!

Click to see the story of a badass big sister with maxed-out combat skills and a lovesick widower who seems aloof and chaste but is actually a lunatic with a love obsession. Watch a dazzling big sister bring the icy Commissioner to heel!

A slightly more serious blurb:

On the day the interstellar war ended, Chu Yue nearly said goodbye to this world.

By the time she opened her eyes again, humanity had entered the post-interstellar era, and she had gone from being a former imperial general to an unconventional little redhead who made ends meet by scavenging trash.

Scavenging trash was great. Flexible hours, no need to get up early to clock in. Chu Yue's little life on the frontier planet was actually pretty comfortable.

But then she discovered that her old nemesis, Shen Xing, had become the Alliance Commissioner, while she'd been smeared as a mentally ill person who died by accident on the battlefield after losing control of her psychic powers. Chu Yue couldn't sit still anymore.

After three days and nights of intense internet surfing, Chu Yue finally found a little solace among all the articles singing her nemesis's praises: that cold-faced neat freak had become a gorgeous widower.

Chu Yue felt better. Chu Yue laughed without a shred of sympathy.

Then she discovered that Shen Xing's beloved, who had died young... seemed to be herself.

One day, Chu Yue came across the unconscious Commissioner.

The man's grip around her wrist was so tight it nearly crushed bone, but his psychic tendrils gently curled around the ends of her hair. "You look very much like... my wife, who died young."

Chu Yue looked at the dog-tag necklace around his neck, the one that belonged to her alone, and smiled meaningfully. "Could it be that your wife is still alive?"

PS: This is my take on the Sentinel-Guide setting, with a mountain of original worldbuilding. The heroine is a Dark Sentinel. Her original spirit animal is a red fox, whose advanced form is a nine-tailed fox. There will be other spirit animals later, which I'll keep under wraps for now. The hero is a wide-area Guide. His spirit animal is a white cat, whose advanced form is Bai Ze. Sentinels and Guides have combat-oriented abilities.

My friend Tang Tang's no-CP novel, Those Who Cry Get Candy (Quick Transmigration)

Blurb for Those Who Cry Get Candy (Quick Transmigration):

Ning Qingning is a newly born god of desire, wanton and unconstrained.

Yet in parallel worlds, all his counterparts are the sort to grit their teeth and suffer in silence, vividly demonstrating the saying, "Those who don't cry don't get candy."

One little unfortunate after another comes to Ning Qingning.

Ning Qingning: Doesn't matter. I'll handle it.

#Those who cry get candy; the self-reliant buy their own. #

Ning Qingning: Only children make choices. Obviously, the more candy, the better.

One: In a modern cultivation world, the biological son of the antagonist in the protagonist's group

He was supposed to die hated by everyone, but ultimately became the faith of a new age.

Two: In a modern setting, the notorious captain of a boy band in the entertainment industry

The entertainment industry's famously arrogant and capricious prince is actually a poor underage boy who grew up with a gambling-addicted father and a deaf-mute mother.

When he joins a live-streamed S-rank variety show,

At first, the comments say: [Prince Ning, get lost. Stop ruining our show.]

Later: [Holy crap, this poor kid. My heart aches for him.]

"At last, he bid farewell to the maliciously cruel age of fifteen and stepped into sixteen, with hope and sunshine growing around him, amid everyone's blessings."

Three: The overlooked son in a prominent wealthy family

An unnoticed rich kid with stomach cancer and depression, unknown and uncared for by everyone.

That's okay. His father doesn't care, and his mother doesn't love him, but with secret identities as a voice-acting powerhouse, a gifted author, and a newly rising actor, he can "love himself with his left hand and embrace his passions with his right."

"He treads lightly over the fleeting years, seeking mountains and seas to turn into poetry. He is a dazzling visitor to the mortal world."

Four: An awakened NPC in an infinite-flow world

A short-tempered punk, great at fighting, a handsome, tattooed idiot, and a cheap NPC to exploit.

That was the players' first impression of him.

Later: "He has more reason than anyone to turn bad."

Five: To be continued

Theme: Pursue your dreams and never give up.
