Chapter 40

Sure enough, Wan Tong stood up from his seat and walked straight to Yu Luosheng's front.

He raised his fist, and suddenly punched Yu Luosheng's chest.

"Bang!!"

Yang Qianqian was frightened by Wan Tong's action.

But when she noticed that Wan Tong's punch was neither light nor heavy, and it didn't seem like he wanted to hurt anyone, it rather resembled a greeting between old friends, which left Yang Qianqian even more puzzled.

"You little brat, we all thought you had disappeared!!" The gloom on Wan Tong's face vanished, and he grinned.

"Haha, I just turned over a new leaf and stopped hanging around in the streets," Yu Luosheng laughed.

"Bullshit, you're still a kid, you haven't seen the real world yet," Wan Tong laughed and scolded.

As he spoke, Wan Tong deliberately glanced at Yang Qianqian standing behind Yu Luosheng, and with a friendly smile, he said, "This is your little girlfriend, huh? Not bad, she's quite pretty."

"Not yet," Yu Luosheng winked at Yang Qianqian.

Seeing the two of them chatting, Yang Qianqian realized they knew each other, but she was still startled.

However, for Yu Luosheng's "not yet," Yang Qianqian was deeply unimpressed and gave him a big eye roll.

Lin Xu, standing nearby, was also stunned. Seeing Wan Tong being scolded as "Wan Mad Dog" without getting angry, he couldn't understand what was going on. Could it be that Yu Luosheng and Wan Tong had a deep friendship??

It couldn't be, Yu Luosheng should be a student, how could he know someone like Wan Tong who hangs around in society.

"Do you play LOL too? Are you here to participate?" Wan Tong got back to the topic.

"Sort of, my classmate asked me to come and observe the first robot of Lecity, so I can learn from this noob," Yu Luosheng said.

"Learn? Bullshit," Wan Tong swore.

"Your game has started," Yu Luosheng pointed at his computer screen and said.

"Oh, oh." Wan Tong hurriedly sat back down, operating the keyboard and mouse while saying to Yu Luosheng, "Boss Qin is in Zone C, go find him, they're short of a player."

"I'm just here to play around, not to compete seriously," Yu Luosheng said.

"At least go and say hi, you're so unbrotherly, you left without saying goodbye to everyone," Wan Tong said, somewhat dissatisfied.

"Alright, alright," Yu Luosheng smiled bitterly.

Yu Luosheng took Yang Qianqian to Zone C, and Lin Xu followed closely behind, though it was unclear what his intentions were.

After the three left, Mi Ge, who was sitting opposite Wan Tong, leaned over and curiously stared at Yu Luosheng, asking, "Wan Tong, do you know that guy?"

"Not just know... You're new to the scene, it's normal you haven't met him," Wan Tong didn't say more and focused on his game.

In fact, Wan Tong didn't tell Mi Ge that when they played StarCraft, Wan Tong often squatted behind Yu Luosheng's machine to observe how the master operated.

When Yu Luosheng jokingly said he wanted to observe Wan Tong playing the robot, Wan Tong naturally had to scold him.

That kid, though young, was his StarCraft teacher, how could Wan Tong let him observe and learn?

...

"Yu Luosheng, how do you know him? He doesn't look like a good person," Yang Qianqian said to Yu Luosheng, her lips pouting.

"I've known him for a long time. Back then, he was also a student, just not very studious. He's not a bad person, just a bit intimidating," Yu Luosheng explained.

"Hmph, still trying to cover up, don't think I don't know you were a delinquent before," Yang Qianqian huffed.

What a huge injustice!

Yu Luosheng used to frequent bars and knew people like Wan Tong who hung around in society, but everyone played the same competitive game in the same internet cafe, so it was natural to get to know each other.

Wait, how could Yang Qianqian know about his past?

...

When they arrived at Zone C, Yu Luosheng saw the Boss Qin that Wan Tong mentioned.

Boss Qin's real name was Qin Ying, a typical internet cafe veteran. He was poor, not because he couldn't earn money, but because he often shared his earnings with his brothers.

He used to run a game studio, specializing in leveling up accounts for others to earn money, and sometimes handled large-scale battles in online games.

For some reason, this time Qin Ying had turned to competitive games and seemed to be planning to form a team for the internet cafe league.

For someone like Qin Ying, who ran a game studio, forming a team to compete would definitely aim for the top three, and they wouldn't just play for fun. The team would naturally have a certain level of organization and discipline.

Boss Qin was not young, around 27 or 28, and at that moment, he was standing behind a row of computers, watching his five team members play ranked matches, occasionally frowning.

"Isn't that Boss Qin?" Lin Xu looked at Qin Ying in surprise.

"Who is Boss Qin?" Yang Qianqian asked curiously.

"Everyone in Lecity who is a hardcore gamer or frequents internet cafes knows Boss Qin. It's said he has shares in Longsheng Internet Cafe, but I don't know the details. Boss Qin is very famous in the Lecity gaming circle, a top figure in this field."

"Oh," Yang Qianqian nodded, somewhat understanding.

Zone C didn't allow non-VIP members to enter. When Yu Luosheng walked in, a staff member politely asked him to leave.

So, Yu Luosheng stood by the screen wall and called out, "Brother Qin."

Boss Qin glanced over, thinking someone was greeting him, and casually nodded.

However, when he saw Yu Luosheng's face, his sunken eyes suddenly lit up.

"Good... good kid, where have you been these past one or two years!" Boss Qin hurriedly came out of Zone C.

Boss Qin's voice was rough, and everyone in Zone C could hear it.

Many people poked their heads out, curious to see who had received such a warm welcome from Boss Qin.

"Studying, studying..." Yu Luosheng smiled bitterly in response.

"Studying?" Boss Qin was stunned for a moment before he reacted.

Thinking about it, Yu Luosheng was still young, he shouldn't be wasting his time in virtual things like Qin Ying.

"So, you're bored and came to the internet cafe to find someone to play DOTA?" Boss Qin asked.

"No, I signed up for LOL, came to the internet cafe to find a team, and play a few games," Yu Luosheng said.

Yu Luosheng kept saying "play a few games," which made Yang Qianqian, standing nearby, very dissatisfied. She secretly pinched his arm.

Why was he so unmotivated? Didn't he want to win first place? She had promised to go on a trip with him!

"I'm short of a player," Boss Qin said, his eyes twinkling.

Seeing Yu Luosheng's confusion, Boss Qin explained, "None of these guys were willing to play support before, and now it's too late to train them. The support players I recruited were either dragging the team down or disrupting the rhythm, I couldn't stand it and kicked them out. The competition is about to start, and I still haven't found a satisfactory support player."

"He's a support player, and he's very good," Yang Qianqian quickly recommended Yu Luosheng.

Yang Qianqian didn't know Boss Qin, but he seemed to be a significant figure in Longsheng Internet Cafe. If Yu Luosheng joined his team, they might really win first place?

Why was she so eager for him to win first place??

Yang Qianqian herself was getting confused.
