Lu Feng looked down at the stalk of celery in front of him.
Across from them, Chen Feng just wanted to cover his eyes. What did this have to do with anything?
Close didn’t like celery. Not only celery, he didn’t like to eat any of these kinds of vegetables that held a strange taste.
Wei Xiao had really failed at being Close’s number one hardcore fan; he didn’t even know about such a thing.
Sure enough, this brat was just greedy for solo games with Close!
Lu Feng leaned forward slightly and bit down on Wei Xiao’s fork. He ate the celery.
Wei Xiao’s smile grew even more brilliant, “Is it tasty?”
Lu Feng: “Mm.”
Chen Feng: “……”
Bai Cai, who’d finished snapping a few photos, confessed honestly, “Wei Xiao thinks that my popularity is too low and only wants to be involved in a CP with the captain.”
He quickly cleared his own name, plucking his clean and white vegetable self out of the situation.
Wei Xiao leaned in close to Lu Feng and quickly explained the matter of the Feeding Vegetables CP, then added proudly, “The two of us are the real Feeding Vegetables CP!”
Lu Feng paused for a moment, then spoke to Bai Cai, “Send the photos to Xiang Liu.”
Bai Cai: “Ah?”
Lu Feng said, “Take a few more photos and publish a ‘team daily interactions’ post on the official blog.”
Chen Feng was rolling his eyes so hard they were about to fly out into the sky. He hadn’t spoken, but he didn’t need to speak for his words to be understood: You’re spoiling this little brat to death!
Wei Xiao was instantly happy, “Wonderful. I was just worrying over how to send out these photos!”
This kind of photo was clearly taken by a teammate, and it definitely couldn’t be sent out through the Gossip Emperor.
Bai Cai’s main account couldn’t be the one to send it, either. He’d already been ‘cheated on’ enough and couldn’t be cheated on any further.
It would also be strange if Wei Xiao sent it out himself, and he’d originally wanted to ask Little Ning…
But it was all good now. Lu Feng had solved the problem for him.
FTW’s official blog often published some daily snapshots about its team members. Even if they’d never shown something as odd as ‘feeding vegetables’, it had published photos of the team doing other things like training, playing sports, or even eating..
However, if this photo was mixed up with some ordinary photos, it should be okay…
Xiang Liu stared at these photos and comforted himself with that thought.
It had to be said that Bai Cai’s photography skills were very good. These photos were too on point.
Wei Xiao was wearing a short sleeved shirt. His arms were pale, his slender fingers held up a fork, and his posture was casual, but it still held the willfulness of youth. The smile hung on the corner of his lips also carried a trace of cynicism.
The angle at which he’d captured Close was even more amazing. His side profile outlined his perfect jawline and high nose. His drooping eyelids and eyelashes were distinct, and his black eyes stared unblinkingly at Wei Xiao.
The little sister in charge of the official blog gazed at the photo for three whole minutes and couldn’t help saying, “How handsome…”
There was no doubt that the great demon king was still cold and cool, but for some reason, in this photo…
The little sister was scared by the words that somehow wormed their way into her head!
She’d actually felt that Close was alluring!
When it came to people who were cold and standoffish all year round, they could seem shockingly sensual even if only a little bit of their collarbone at their neckline peeked out due to them turning their head
The little sister in charge of the official blog patted herself on the face and quickly clicked on ‘publish’.
He was really sinfully handsome. It was just a casually taken photo, yet it was already so attractive.
By the time they finished eating, the comments in FTW’s official blog had already exploded.
The official blog had published a total of four photos. The first one was of Little Ning with hazy eyes when he had just woken up, the second was of Yue Wenle holding three bags of potato chips, the third showed Bai Cai running with headphones on, and the fourth was Wei Xiao and Lu Feng’s…
The fans who looked through the photos experienced this kind of thought process: When they looked at the first photo, oh hey, granny gray was really cute; the second photo, okay, God Le’s potato chip endorsement time was coming up; the third photo wasn’t surprising, Brother Cai tried hard to strengthen his body yet still looked like a weak shou…
All the way until they flipped to the fourth photo.
These two people’s high resolution, sweet interactions instantly washed through the fans’ brains, leaving only ‘holy shit, holy shit, holy holy shit!’ in its wake.
The Seclusion CP sisters who’d gone over the wall to Feeding Vegetables all returned home one after another, holding their banners high, waving their flags, and shouting as they worked to disperse all the other evil cults!
What made FTW’s female fans even more stunned was that Close, who never logged into Weibo all year round and seemed to have practically forgotten that such an app existed, had logged in.
He forwarded the post.
How could the sneaky little goblin Wei Xiao miss out on this opportunity to gain some popularity? He forwarded Close’s Weibo post and asked, “Was it delicious?”
Close replied, “Delicious.”
In just 10 minutes, three simple Weibo posts that added up to only a few sparse words sparked off essays that added up to tens of thousands of words and tossed the Feeding Vegetables CP all the way out into outer space!
Tens of thousands of netizens collectively flew up to the skies. The Seclusion sisters screamed so much they were dizzy from lack of oxygen!
Wei Xiao looked at his fan count that was taking off like a rocket and showed off to Bai Cai, “See? This is the popularity and traffic flow of top class players!”
Bai Cai: “……”
Wei Xiao looked at the photo of himself and praised Bai Cai, “Good shot.”
Brother Vegetable: “……”
Don’t ask, if you ask, he’d abandon the game and turn into a shadow!
After personally directing and involving himself in this event, Wei Xiao tossed this matter to the back of his head.
Pushing CPs was just for fun. The proper way to indulge fans was to achieve results.
Such a high fan count wasn’t only there for the sake of his face. Only when they piled up the championship cups in front of them one by one would they truly be proud!
Wei Xiao wouldn’t let down all these small fans who were cheering for him.
In the afternoon, they didn’t draw lots to determine the team formations. Yue Wenle claimed Brother Cai, and Little Ning queued on his own.
Ning Zhehan was quite nervous about this. He had confidence in 5v5 teams but was afraid of being matched into a solo game.
Once he lost, he would be losing points for the team, and he didn’t want to drag the team down.
Chen Feng patted him on the shoulder, “Don’t worry. It’s not that easy to encounter solo games.”
This was due to the game mechanics. Each team held five people, and if players could only single or double queue, then it was bound to be in a 2+2+1 combination. Relatively speaking, the demand for it meant that the demand for single queue players was higher. The system would attempt to avoid solo games and use single queue players to fill the gaps in 5v5 games.
Ning Zhehan nodded, “Okay!”
He would try his best to win even if it was a solo game.
Wei Xiao sat across from him. After hearing their words, he added, “What are you scared of? Little Ning’s immortal warlock isn’t just for show. He killed me three times during solo.”
Ning Zhehan was stunned.
Bai Cai also chimed in, “Yeah, it’s pretty good.”
Ning Zhehan’s eyes lit up.
Chen Feng was intrigued, “When did you play solo games together?”
Ning Zhehan replied, “It was before Brother Xiao joined the team.”
Chen Feng got it. A training partner.
Ning Zhehan instantly regained his self-confidence. That’s right. What was there to be scared of in solo? He’d spent 10,000 yuan on solo that night, and all of his famous heroes had been smeared into the ground. Hadn’t he lived through that already?
He’d already survived such a disaster. What else was there to be scared of?
Besides, the grandmaster even praised his immortal warlock.
Speaking of which, during his last game that day, he’d actually killed the grandmaster three times with his immortal warlock and had almost turned the tables in that match!
Ning Zhehan was charged full of energy and headed bravely towards the single queue!
Unfortunately, he didn’t encounter a single solo game all afternoon. However, that was something that was only known later.
Since Yue Wenle was carrying the vegetable, Wei Xiao could finally pester Lu Feng.
When the two of them began matching, Wei Xiao muttered under his breath continuously.
Lu Feng was close to him and heard him very clearly.
Bai Cai could also hear it––
Wei Xiao: “God Kim God Kim God Kim, amitabha, God Kim, come quickly!”
Indeed. He was calling for Kim Sung-hyun. He wanted to play a doubles match against him and wipe clean his shame even in his dreams.
Ding-dong. Wei Xiao matched into a game. He opened his eyes, saw that it was a 5v5 game, and was a little disappointed.
Bai Cai and Yue Wenle were the first to match into a game. By now, they’d already selected their talents and entered the game.
When they saw the IDs on the opposite side…
Bai Cai & Yue Wenle: “F*ck!”
Wei Xiao was going through the BP process. He looked over, “What?”
Bai Cai wanted to strangle him to death, “I f*cking matched up against Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran!”
Wei Xiao: “………… F*ck!”
Language was broad and profound. Bai Cai and Yue Wenle’s ‘f*ck’ was full of unhappiness and shock, while Wei Xiao’s ‘f*ck’ was full of envy and jealousy.
Wei Xiao stuck his head over to take a look, and his eyes almost turned green with envy…
Red team: Bai Cai, Yue Wenle.
Blue team: Kim Sung-hyun, Li Heran.
Wei Xiao was super angry, “Next time, we’re going to queue first!”
Bai Cai was also super angry, “Old Yue, let’s surrender at 8 minutes!”
Coach Chen sneered, “Surrender, then. I’ll deduct 30,000 from each person who surrenders.”
Bai Cai: “…Sorry, Old Yue, I won’t surrender. Even if you transfer 60,000 to me on the spot, I still won’t surrender!”
Wei Xiao’s heart was incredibly itchy, “Look, the captain and I just matched into a game too. How about we…” Switch computers so that everyone could be happy.
Chen Feng’s eyes shot daggers in his direction.
Wei Xiao’s words made an abrupt u-turn, “… Focus on the game and try our best to win 12 points.”
In FTW’s first game, Wei Xiao and Lu Feng dominated the 5v5 game, suppressing the other side until they fled in defeat.
Brother Cai and God Le were an ADC and support pair. When going up against Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran, it was just like a mouse meeting a cat.
Although they didn’t surrender at the 8 minute mark, they were only able to hold on until the 18th minute before Kim Sung-hyun pierced through their resurrection crystal with an arrow and sent them out of the game.
One double queue team won 6 points, while the other double queue team lost 6 points. FTW remained steady at 0 points.
Fortunately, Little Ning performed well and had won a game.
In the second round, Brother Cai absolutely refused to be the team room owner. Yue Wenle’s luck was pretty good after he became the room master, and he no longer matched them up with immortals. They were able to win the next game steadily.
In the second game, Wei Xiao and Lu Feng continued with another overwhelming victory, and it was a crushing victory right from the start. The top lane and jungler partnered up and soared, while the other party’s top lane towers seemed to be filled with mines. Anyone who went over would die, and even the towers themselves seemed to explode one after another, causing the other team’s mental state to collapse!
They won four games in a row, but Wei Xiao was a bit unhappy because the wins were too easy.
Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran were clearly also double queueing. Why couldn’t he and the captain run into them!
Wei Xiao thought for a moment, “Captain, let me be the room master!”
It must be that the captain’s ‘aura’ was too strong and had scared people away!
Lu Feng knew what he was thinking. He transferred over the room ownership.
Wei Xiao rubbed his hands, then clicked to start queueing…
No, wait!
The person with the best luck in their team was Brother Cai!
It just so happened that Bai Cai had finished a game and was looking over the data in the settlement interface.
Wei Xiao immediately spoke up, “Brother Cai, come and click for the captain and I.”
Bai Cai: “???”
Wei Xiao urged him, “Hurry, I believe in you.”
Bai Cai got it. Wei Xiao wanted to borrow his bad luck.
“I…” Bai Cai was about to refuse.
Wei Xiao tempted him, “If you can match us up with Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran, I’ll immediately transfer you 10,000 yuan.”
Brother Cai: “Deal!”
Bai Cai clicked on the match button, and they entered a game.
Wei Xiao’s eyes lit up, “A doubles game!”
There was hope.
Bai Cai was also startled, “This luck…” Was it really so poisonous? It couldn’t really be Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran, right?!
Wei Xiao rubbed his fists, “Captain, what will you use?”
Lu Feng: “Death knight.”
Wei Xiao: “Then, I’ll use the shadow thief?”
Lu Feng: “Sure.”
They locked in their heroes and entered the game. Wei Xiao saw the IDs on the opposite side.
Bai Cai: “……”
Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle were also very curious, “Did you really match up against them?”
The corner of Bai Cai’s lips were twitching, “Old Wei, I think these two are also worth 10,000.”
Martian text had already popped out from the other side, “U 2 double Q?”
They hadn’t matched up with Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran, but they’d run into Gary and Yuan Ze instead.
Brother Vegetable’s luck was really the limit.
