After losing his memory overnight, the gentle and refined Tan Xiao became a different person.
A streamer who mooched off his popularity and acted all sweet and innocent pestered him to duo queue. Tan Xiao killed the streamer instead. "First Blood. Tasty."
The team's manager, a sly, smiling fox, handed him a contract extension. Tan Xiao couldn't be bothered to take it. "No."
His bad-at-the-game, melodramatic teammate begged him through tears to stay. Tan Xiao patiently brought over a bowl of rice and mocked him. "You knew I was hungry? You should've brought four dishes."
Tan Xiao quickly ditched the bloodsucking team that only cared about making easy money and officially announced he was cutting ties.
His fans banged gongs, set off firecrackers, and held a massive giveaway to celebrate his getting a new lease on life.
To find a new team, he messaged the person on his friends list saved as "Husband"
"Where are you going this season? Want to team up?"
Tan Xiao couldn't remember the details of their time together, but he was glad his past self had decent taste. His husband, Zhan Feng, was an extraordinary jungler who could match his pace perfectly.
His only flaw: he couldn't take a tease.
Was it really necessary to freeze for a full thirty seconds and then panic when Tan Xiao squeezed his abs?
Together, their top and jungle lanes were unstoppable, and they made a beeline for the league championship.
At the celebration banquet, slightly drunk and emboldened, Tan Xiao deliberately grabbed Zhan Feng's chin and pretended he was going to kiss him. Just as expected, Zhan Feng's face turned bright red amid the cheers.
But Tan Xiao stopped just before their noses touched and let go with a grin. "Why'd you close your eyes? Are you that afraid of me?"
The next day, his world came crashing down!
Tan Xiao got his memories back. How could someone have "Husband" as both a nickname and a contact name? He hadn't even been close to Zhan Feng before!
Now Tan Xiao had no idea how to face his "husband." He wished the transfer window would open the very next second so he could catch a plane and flee overnight.
But Zhan Feng cornered him in his gaming chair.
Zhan Feng's gaze burned. "Didn't we agree? We'd go public once we won the championship."
Knowing he was in the wrong, Tan Xiao steeled himself and said, "I got it wrong. It's not like I actually did anything to you. Can we pretend nothing happened...?"
Zhan Feng pressed him relentlessly. "I helped you win the championship, let you feel my abs, and now you want to pretend nothing happened?"
Pinned in the chair and unable to move, Tan Xiao felt the abs before him getting harder and harder (?). His voice grew quieter and quieter.
"Then, how about I win you a world championship?"
"And let you feel mine in return."
"What else do you want...?"
Ever since his debut, Zhan Feng had kept a name hidden in his heart. That person was the bright moon he gazed up at in secret, the fine snow he never dared touch. Then one day, that person suddenly came to his side.
Now that a miracle had come to him, he couldn't possibly let go.
"I still want you. Let's make the mistake real."
[Once a softie, now sharp-tongued and carefree, kill anyone who stands in my way to the championship, top laner bottom x secret crush comes true, will do anything his wife says but won't let him leave me, jungler top]
