You’re Beautiful When You Smile

Chapter 24 (3)

After a few days, the Mid-season Invitationals was coming to an end. CK lost to the Korean Communication Team at the finals-- --It was a pity, but most people could accept it as everyone had predicted the Chinese team would be crushed right at the doorstep.

After the Invitational started, people were surprised to find that China wasnt the only weak team-- --It was weak team against weak team among the 6 regions...Everyone hoped theyd still have some chance at this years World Finals.

It was already mid May when the Invitational held its closing ceremony. The weather in Shanghai was getting hotter and it was time to get ready for the League of Legends Summer Competition in the China Region, which would start at the end of May-- --

The vacation was finally over. All the players returned to base. Every team was preparing the their lineup and backups for this season...There were more invites for skirmishes as well.

Since ZGDX was regarded as one of the stronger teams, there were numerous invitations from different teams to skirmish every day. Xiao Rui picked a few for them to practice with. Some teams were strong, some weak. The most Tong Yao played was three matches in one day-- --

They won all of them.

Though the results of skirmishes were usually kept secret, eventually their winning streak was leaked. The whole esports circle all knew one thing: ZGDX was in its best condition since they had a new Mid, undefeated in all their skirmishes.

Fans were all excitedly waiting for the appearance of the new ZGDX in the Summer season...However, Tong Yaos team had some minor issues internally during this time-- --

The problem stemmed from the issue of a skirmish.

That day, Tong Yao and her team had just finished their skirmish with YQCB. They gathered in a circle to discuss the shortcomings of their new tactics during the earlier skirmish. Ming god was turning page after page of the notebook in his hand of their post-game statistics. The team manager, Xiao Rui, passed by behind them and lightly dropped a line, Cheng Ge, your old team has come to invite us for a skirmish. I already said yes.

The man, who was looking at the small blackboard behind him, paused slightly, then turned around with furrowed brows. What did you say?

Without any exaggeration, Tong Yao instantly could feel the change of the atmosphere.

Little Fatty, who was discussing the tactics that YQCB had used earlier, abruptly stopped. Old K was also silent; Old Cat, who was analyzing what top champions he was good at and can use, raised his head, Ming god also stopped flipping through his little notebook-- --

Sitting among them, Tong Yao look around in confusion.

Weve played against Chinese teams for so many days now, isnt it time to have a skirmish with a strong Korean team? Xiao Rui rubbed the tip of his nose. So I accepted the invitation from that team.

Lu Sicheng: ......

By convention, team members had no right to object to any skirmish arranged by the team manager. But ZGDX was an exception. Their team member and captain, Mr. Lu Sicheng, was also one of the shareholders of the club...Therefore, he sometimes could make some decisions over the manager and challenge the decisions of management-- --

It was exactly what had happened that day.

His usual relaxed demeanor disappeared. With eyebrows knitted, he truly looked as if he was mildly annoyed. I remember that I said that its not the time to play against TAT yet.

Xiao Rui tried to correct him, You said that a month ago.

Lu Sicheng: Did I say anything about the situation having changed lately? Or do I need to repeat it everyday?

Weve played skirmishes for a month now. Xiao Rui furrowed his eyebrows. Tong Yao should already be used to it-- --

You want to play against a Korean team, why dont you invite their communication team? Why do you have to arrange it with TAT

They came to us themselves!

Why did they come to us all by themselves? Its all because they have heard the whole world boasting how invicible our new Mid is...Wheres your brain? Why didnt you discuss it with me?

You were playing a skirmish with YQCB at the time. Besides, its only a skirmish, no big deal if we lose...Im thinking its not a bad idea to have the two strongest teams in the regions meet before the new season begins. Whats the big deal? Xiao Rui was unyielding. Well meet them sooner or later
