I Have to Spoil Him

A possessive, scheming pro player x a gentle, easygoing photographer

Blurb One:

When Shi Jian was seventeen, she rescued a boy in the suburbs.

His body was covered in bruises, blood at the corners of his eyes, and he looked at everyone with hostility.

Shi Jian hid him in the car, then rushed out to face the villains herself.

When she returned to save him, there was no one behind her. All that remained was a note thanking her.

Five crookedly written characters were on it.

[Thank you, cf]

Three years later, Shi Jian joins the strongest esports club around as its official photographer.

Chen Fang, the team's starting AD, is top-tier, but taciturn.

His upturned, flirtatious eyes have made streaming platforms fight over him one after another.

And because he has so many tattoos, fans jokingly call him a walking mosaic.

Committed to working hard and staying away from rumors, Shi Jian keeps a five-meter social distance from the famously difficult V God every day after joining the team.

Then one day, a drunk Shi Jian wanders into Chen Fang's room by mistake.

In her daze, she sees a round clock tattooed on the left side of Chen Fang's chest.

Only later does Shi Jian learn how many lonely, obscure nights the boy she rescued had endured by holding on to the clock over his heart.

Blurb Two:

The league's top team, RT, has just signed a professional photographer to rescue its official social media account from its awful, old-fashioned photos.

Fans cheer: We can finally see Vain's handsome face clearly!

Sure enough, on the new photographer's first day, V God trends for his face.

The fans cheer again: My esports hero finally has a face!

From then on, the team's results improve day by day, and they get so many sponsors that their jerseys can no longer fit all the logos.

But the fans feel that things are getting stranger and stranger. Vain, who used to avoid socializing, has not only become more down-to-earth, but even turns on his camera to livestream every day.

Then one day, they see the taciturn Chen Fang curled up in the photographer's arms, acting spoiled, on someone else's livestream.

All just to get a bite of her instant noodles.

Vain: In vain

Tips:

The leads are the same age. They are each other's first love. Happy ending.

The author respects the spirit of esports.

The match records and characters in this novel are not based on real people.

Game setting: League of Legends. The author's writing ability is limited, so there isn't much game-related description. Winning the championship won't be easy, and they won't simply rise to the top. The later plot will cover it.

Moral: Behind every burst of hard work, there will surely be an even greater reward.
