Strong, beautiful, miserable, sharp-tongued genius doctor bottom Jiang Bie x stoic, devoted mute assassin top Huo Wugui

-

Jiang Bie got involved with a dangerous man.

A ruthless assassin with extraordinary martial arts skills.

Too bad he was mute.

On the very first night they met, Jiang Bie fought with the mute assassin in a secret chamber. That wasn't enough. He used the man to escape his sect, then pursued his enemy's sect and burned the place to the ground.

After avenging his great grudge, Jiang Bie no longer had any use for the mute assassin. He planned to cut ties with him, but then suddenly realized that this man seemed to be the little mute who had taken a knife for him fifteen years ago.

The little mute, thin as a monkey, had fallen in a pool of blood and mouthed for him to run.

Jiang Bie had thought he was dead. He had even set up a grave with his clothes and belongings, secretly missing him for fifteen years. He never expected the little mute to be alive, let alone to have spent all that time searching for him across the world.

-

Jiang Bie discovered that after learning his true identity, the mute, who killed without blinking out in the world, had suddenly changed his ways and obeyed Jiang Bie in everything.

The mute was a little flirtatious in his own way. Since he couldn't speak, he never openly protested. He became the most reliable weapon in Jiang Bie's hands, hitting every target without fail.

But one day, Jiang Bie realized that the mute seemed to have changed.

He was no longer as silent as before. He would tease Jiang Bie, take his hand without asking and write on his palm, and rely on his excellent lightness skills to sneak in and watch him sleep.

Jiang Bie began to suspect something was off.

Until the day the mute was badly wounded and the two of them were trapped in a cave. Outside, a storm raged through the night as their enemies closed in. As usual, Jiang Bie gave the mute orders and prepared to treat him.

But this time, the mute didn't obey.

The mute was different from every other time before.

His eyes were bloodshot, reflecting only one person's silhouette. As he teetered on the brink of qi deviation, there was only one thought in his mind:

...I want him.

Upcoming esports power fantasy: We Agreed to Be Teammates Only

Sharp-shooting, soft-hearted aloof beauty bottom x scheming, sharp-tongued, carefree ex-boyfriend top

Song Jiyun, also known as Aurex, is a Valorant prodigy. Despite winning countless titles over the years, he's been stuck on the bench for two whole years.

After falling out with his old team, Song Jiyun joined a no-name team.

They're broke, bad, and have an uncertain future.

The only coincidence is that his ex-boyfriend is there, too.

His career-focused fans don't know what to say. His shipping fans are resurrected on the spot.

Song Jiyun himself is like: Whoever wants to rekindle this old flame can go ahead. I just want to win a championship.

He figured the other guy would have at least some objections, but Sheng Yangxiao agreed instantly.

"You just want us to be teammates? Sure."

-

One night, a pipe burst in Song Jiyun's bedroom, and he had no choice but to knock on someone's door with a pillow in his arms.

Sheng Yangxiao answered without a shirt, completely unfazed. "Need a place to stay? How long?"

Song Jiyun looked away and said woodenly, "I'll leave once the pipe's fixed."

The repairs took a whole month.

One day, a team member got up early and caught his captain secretly slipping a red bill into the plumber's hand.

The team member: "Brother Sheng??"

The plumber jumped and immediately turned on him: "This isn't my fault! The kid said he was the boss and gave me another hundred yuan to leave it broken!"

The team member: "..."

Song Jiyun, who'd just been passing by and accidentally heard the whole thing: "…"

What does this mean?

-

Sheng Yangxiao, also known as June, and Song Jiyun were once the twin stars of the dueling scene. But two years ago, Sheng Yangxiao left their old team and went to North America. Misunderstandings piled up, and the two were separated for good.

He lay low for two years, lived frugally, and staked his entire fortune on putting together SEC. His spacious penthouse became a basement, his four-wheeler became a three-wheeler, and from the players to the coach, everyone was there to mooch off him. He was the first person to pay out of pocket to compete professionally.

All so he could bring Song Jiyun over and return to the top together.

After learning the truth, Song Jiyun looked conflicted. "Sheng Yangxiao, what exactly are you trying to do?"

Sheng Yangxiao raised an eyebrow. "Isn't it obvious? I'm pursuing you."

Song Jiyun gritted his teeth. "Didn't we agree to be teammates only?"

"We did," Sheng Yangxiao replied matter-of-factly. "Who says teammates can't pursue each other?"
