Since there was still nearly an hour before the match started, Ouyang Zhuo invited them to sit in the team’s rest room for a while.
Lin Qiao declined, not wanting to disturb his teammates’ preparations.
Unexpectedly, he said, “It’s okay, we can’t win this match at all. They all know that.”
Lin Qiao, unfamiliar with esports, was shocked, wondering if this was something to be said.
Lin Ji knew that Ouyang Zhuo was telling the truth. BW and SPK were not even on the same level. Let alone winning, it would be good enough if they could finish the match.
BW is a new team that was only formed last year. They have been together for less than a year and are still in the adjustment period. The fact that they were able to qualify for the XF National Tournament is entirely due to their team leader, who is very wealthy, taking them all over the country to compete and accumulate points.
It was already a miracle that they were able to fight their way from the preliminary rounds to the top eight.
Unfortunately, they encountered the previous champion team, so losing was a foregone conclusion.
He never expected their team leader to be so optimistic; he admitted it before the match even started.
“Let’s go, let’s go, consider it a cheer for my team!” Ouyang Zhuo pulled Lin Qiao along.
Out of a desire to scout out the enemy’s situation for the SPK team, Lin Ji also followed along.
As soon as he stepped into the lounge, before Ouyang Zhuo could even introduce him, Lin Ji jumped up like a puppy with its fur standing on end.
“You, you, you!”
He recognized the woman inside immediately—the one who had splashed him with mud that morning. Her pink motorcycle outfit and helmet made him instantly recognizable. He would recognize her even if she turned to ashes!
Liu Liu was warming up her wrists in pre-match preparation. Her half-black, half-pink hair was tied in pigtails. She sat motionless on the sofa, staring at the furious stranger at the door with an expression that said, “You’re crazy!”
Lin Ji rushed over, took out his dirty clothes from the paper bag, and pointed them out to her.
“Weren’t you the one riding the motorcycle in front of the TV station this morning? You splashed mud all over me, do you know that?”
All the embarrassing things Lin Ji had done this morning stemmed from this grumpy girl in front of him. Now that he’d finally caught the culprit, his anger was burning.
Liu Liu had a blank expression, seemingly not understanding why this person was so frantic, as if he had gone mad. She calmly glanced at the clothes and said, “Oh, sorry.”
“Oh? Sorry???” Lin Ji was practically laughing in exasperation.
He’d made such a fool of himself because of her, and all he got was an ‘Oh, sorry’?
Although Liu Liu dressed in a quirky style, she had a world-weary face, especially her eyes, which showed a slight white showing when she looked up at people, making everyone seem like trash.
“Otherwise?” She asked sincerely.
“Otherwise???”
Even though she was clearly in the wrong, she still acted like she was looking down on him. Lin Ji was stunned. How could there be such an outrageous person in the world?
Liu Liu looked at him strangely, wondering if this guy was a broken record.
Seeing that there seemed to be some misunderstanding, Ouyang Zhuo walked over and asked, “Shiliu, do you know each other?”
Liu Liu shook her head.
Lin Ji didn’t want to say anything anymore. He scoffed and was about to turn and leave when he was grabbed by another short, afro-haired teammate in the break room.
