My Lady, To Defeat Scumbags You Must Start Early

Chapter 499: Chapter 498: Match, Are You Interested in Joining the National Team? (Part 2)

The next day.

Ten past ten in the morning.

Luo Xiaolang appeared in the live-stream room.

Little Tiger’s condition wasn’t great today, so she was ten minutes late.

She apologized as soon as she logged in, “Sorry, my son was a bit noisy, that’s why I’m late.”

“Enough with the talking, everyone’s waiting for you, hurry up and connect with God Joe.”

“Quickly, God Joe has been online waiting for you ten minutes ahead.”

“Luo Xiaolang, we hope you can conquer God Joe.”

The barrage went crazy as soon as she logged in.

It’s said that this stream, Luo Xiaolang’s matchup with Joe, reached an eighty-percent viewership on Goldfish Live-streaming.

Luo Xiaolang quickly followed the steps and connected with Joe.

They could now freely dialogue.

Joe said, “Hello, Xiaolang.”

His greeting was unhurried, his voice smooth.

Apart from his exceptional skills, many people loved watching Joe’s stream because of his especially magnetic and appealing voice. The barrage was always filled with comments like, “I feel my ears are pregnant.”

“Hello.” Luo Xiaolang was very polite.

There was no flattery in her attitude towards Joe, it was just regular communication.

Another explosion in the chat box.

“How can Luo Xiaolang be so calm in front of God Joe.”

“Luo Xiaolang, aren’t you a woman? Don’t you feel thrilled being chosen by God Joe?”

“Luo Xiaolang, could you show more respect to our God Joe…”

Luo Xiaolang usually didn’t pay attention to the barrage.

She said to Joe, “Shall we start now?”

“5V5 or 1V1?”

“I’m fine with either.”

“Let’s do 5V5 first.”

“Okay.”

They both randomly entered opposing teams.

As soon as the game started, the live-streaming room exploded again.

Now it really was just watching the perfect performances of two pro-gamers. A 20-minute game taking a full hour, with only one crystal remaining on both sides, they were both steadfastly holding on.

The others in the random team were confused.

What kind of immortal teammates have they encountered, even with the last drop of blood in crystal, they could pull off a reverse Penta Kill.

Later, the other team members didn’t join the fight anymore, they were enjoying watching their teammates perform.

The 5V5 match turned into a 1V1 showdown.

This was the first time Luo Xiaolang had encountered such an opponent.

Although she had lost some games before, it was usually due to having really bad teammates, whom she couldn’t carry. Other times, she was generally leading the whole game, but today she had to play more seriously than ever.

Joe was more or less the same. No emotion showed on his face, but in the beginning, people could still hear his magnetic voice from time to time. Now, he was entirely absorbed in the game, sparing no effort.

They held out for another 20 minutes.

Luo Xiaolang lost.

All ten people died in a group fight.

Joe’s minions broke the crystal a second ahead of Luo Xiaolang’s minions.

Thus, declaring his win.

It was an extremely close win.

Joe still felt some lingering fear.

He had watched some of Luo Xiaolang’s performances, but he didn’t expect that this woman would get stronger when facing stronger opponents. He didn’t anticipate feeling so much pressure.

At this moment, the audience was also full of excitement and couldn’t get enough.

People kept typing in the chat, “Gods, play one more round, it was too exciting, we can’t get enough.”

“One more round, one more round!”

“Luo Xiaolang is really awesome, respect!”

“But God Joe is more powerful, the last fight was incredibly cool.”

“…”

The chat box was exploding.

Joe said while looking at the chat, “Please don’t just send me gifts, send some to Xiaolang too, her performance today was perfect, I just won by luck.”

As he finished.

Again, the screen was filled with comments, “Our God Joe is too gentle, he even told us to send gifts to Luo Xiaolang.”

“Even though God Joe won, he said it was just luck, God Joe is too good.”

“Why can’t I be Luo Xiaolang? If I were Luo Xiaolang, I could play with God Joe…”

The number of viewers in the live-streaming room was extraordinary.

Wu Meili, who never touched games, was excited watching the game and the chat box.

She felt that playing games could be this cool for the first time!

Not to mention Luo Xiaolang, women watching women often miss some adrenalin rush, but watching God Joe, she was almost drooling.

“Secretary Wu, you are about to drool.” Yin Qin walked out of the office to see his secretary looking infatuated.

“God Joe is too handsome.” While Wu Meili was still starry-eyed, she sighed in awe.

Only after saying that did she realize she was at work.

The one beside her speaking was her boss!

She quickly put her phone face down on the table, and seriously looked at the chairman whose face clearly showed dissatisfaction.

“Chairman, I, I just took a look for a moment, I heard Luo Xiaolang was playing a game so I watched it.” Wu Meili hurriedly explained.

Her gold-plated job.

Her precious job.

“So what’s the result?” Yin Qin raised his eyebrows.

Wu Meili was taken aback.

She was checking if her boss was asking for the results not scolding her.

She tentatively answered, “Luo Xiaolang lost.”

Yin Qin knew it would be this way.

He had warned Luo Xiaolang not to play with Joe.

Joe had played games for all these years; in terms of tactics and strategy, he was much stronger than Luo Xiaolang.

“But it was really just bad luck. All players on both sides died, and it was the minions that broke the crystal. You won’t understand how excited everyone was. Everyone was watching whether Xiaolang’s minions or Joe’s minions would break the crystal. Joe was really just a second ahead, no no no, maybe even less than a second. The game was too exciting. Even someone like me, who doesn’t play games, is getting addicted! Who knew that a guy playing games could be so cool!” Wu Meili hurriedly explained, seemingly unable to extricate herself from the excitement of the game.

Yin Qin’s face was stern, and he silently said, “What’s so cool about a man who’s super into games.”

“Chairman, are you just sour because you couldn’t get the grapes? Didn’t you also used to play games often? I’ve seen you several times at work almost walking into things while playing. You almost gave the previous chairman a heart attack. Besides, now gaming is considered a national competitive sport, could you not be so uncultured.” Wu Meili protectively responded.

“Are you becoming more daring? Watching live-streams during work hours and even having the audacity to talk back to me!” Yin Qin was angry.

“…Sorry, Chairman, I’m sorry!” Wu Meili backed down immediately, “I won’t dare again.”

Yin Qin’s face was still stern.

“Is there something the Chairman needs from me?” Wu Meili hastily attempted to please him.

Yin Qin said, “Help me get back the money I previously threw into the live-streaming account!”

“….” This was just blatant bullying.

She had just boldly told the customer service representative that her CEO was fond of a host, and now she had to get the money back, undermining her credibility.

“I want a response by today!”

Speaking those words, he returned to his office, slamming the door shut with much force.

Wu Meili was frightened.

It seemed her Chairman was genuinely furious with her.

She also feared looking at the live stream.

She quickly contacted customer services.

It was Yin Qin who, after having held back all morning, finally opened the live-streaming software at this moment.

What was all the fuss about?

This God Joe wasn’t even as handsome as he was!

As he started watching the stream, he saw God Joe and Luo Xiaolang interacting.

Other people were frantically gifting them.

The screen was full of it.

God Joe said, “Xiaolang, are you interested in joining our national team?”

Luo Xiaolang was taken aback.

“I will guide you in proper matches,” God Joe said.

Luo Xiaolang hesitated.

Joe didn’t spend a lot of time on the live stream because he was often preparing for matches. But every time he showed up, his streams were always full.

“I need to take care of my son, so I may not have enough time,” Luo Xiaolang declined.

The moment she declined, Yin Qin surprisingly let out a sigh of relief.

“I will try to limit your training to 2-3 hours a day,” Joe stated directly.

This was indeed a backdoor offer for Luo Xiaolang.

Luo Xiaolang stared at Joe without saying a word.

“Professional competitions provide more stable income than streaming. As soon as you join the national team, you will have a stable income. Of course, this is just one aspect. More importantly, if a talent like you does not serve the country, it will be a great loss. I sincerely hope you’ll give it some thought and consider joining.”

Luo Xiaolang was still hesitant.

The comments never stopped, “Luo Xiaolang, quickly agree to my God Joe!”

“Luo Xiaolang, don’t break my God Joe’s heart.”

“Luo Xiaolang, hurry up and say yes.”

“…”

At that moment, Luo Xiaolang finally said, “Okay.”

“Damn it!” This curse came bursting out of Yin Qin.

At that moment, he was really out of breath with rage.

Was Luo Xiaolang always this impulsive in her decisions? Did she know what a national team was? What a competition was? Did she understand how much pressure was involved? She agreed in front of so many people without a clue.

Was she a complete idiot?!

“I will call you in a while,” Joe said, his voice sounding particularly pleasant.

The comments flooded the screen.

“I can’t take it, my ears are pregnant.”

“Ahhh, I’m melting.”

“What does Luo Xiaolang have that makes my Joe so tender…”

Luo Xiaolang didn’t really read the comments. She nodded, “Okay. I’m going offline for now.”

“Okay.”

Luo Xiaolang then exited the live stream.

Yin Qin just stared at his phone screen, watching as Luo Xiaolang’s display turned into a black screen.

He was burning up in anger.

A fire had ignited, he couldn’t bear it anymore.

At that moment, Wu Meili knocked on the door, “Chairman, the customer service representative said it would take three to five business days…”

“I want it today!” Yin Qin shouted.

He seemed very willful.

Wu Meili stared at him in shock.

“Today, I want it returned today! Tell the people at Goldfish that if they don’t meet my demands, I’ll acquire their company tomorrow!”

“…” Was her Chairman off his meds today?

Luo Xiaolang went offline.

As soon as she had a drink of water, her phone rang.

She had left her contact details when registering the account. They must have found her details off the live-streaming platform.

Luo Xiaolang answered, “Hello.”

“It’s me, Joe,” the familiar voice on the other end said pleasantly.

“Hello.”

“Where are you right now? Can we meet in person? There are some things that are inconvenient to talk about over the phone,” Joe asked.

“My son will be home soon, and he’ll need to sleep at this hour. I’m the only one who can comfort him,” Luo Xiaolang replied candidly.

“That’s okay, can you tell me your address? I’ll come over,” he said.

Luo Xiaolang hesitated for a moment, “I’ll send the address to you.”

“Let’s add each other on WeChat.”

“Okay.”

Luo Xiaolang hung up the phone, performed a series of operations, and then sent her address to Joe.

Not long after, Auntie Wu returned home with the baby tiger.

As soon as they returned, the baby tiger made a fuss about wanting milk. After feeding, he needed to sleep in Luo Xiaolang’s arms.

When Joe arrived, Luo Xiaolang was soothing the baby tiger.

A young man accompanied Joe.

Joe said to Luo Xiaolang, “You continue what you’re doing.”

Luo Xiaolang nodded slightly.

Auntie Wu poured tea for the two of them.

After a while, Xiaolang managed to put the baby tiger to sleep and walked into the living room, “Sorry to keep you waiting.”

“No, we’ve been too abrupt. Nice to meet you, Luo Xiaolang. I’m Joe. This is one of our teammates, An Qing.”

“Nice to meet you,” Luo Xiaolang replied politely.

Joe straightforwardly said, “I have a contract here for you to sign. It’s for 2 years. The content of the contract is as follows: regular play and competition revenues are not the same. Competition winnings will be calculated based on the final ranking and the number of kills you get. Here’s the contract for our top-tier players in the national team. See if there’s anything you want to change.”

Luo Xiaolang nodded, accepting it.

She looked at it. There were so many clauses densely packed together. She couldn’t help but say, “So much written so quickly.”

“Our boss was working on this contract proposal all last night. He stayed up all night.” An Qing couldn’t help blurting out.
