ain?” Lin Feng asked.

“Hmph! You’re full of requests, aren’t you? Hehe! At least you now know I’m a great cook, right? Gotcha, stir-fried eggplants.
But first, go wash your hands.”

Half an hour later, a smorgasbord of dishes was set on the table.
Lin Feng couldn’t stop himself from drooling.
“Hoh… wow! C-can I start? I’m going to start!”

Lin Feng started gorging himself, shoving food in his mouth like a starved beast.
Su Xue couldn’t help but be annoyed and amused at the same time.
“Hey hey! The food isn’t going anywhere.
Aren’t you afraid you’re going to eat your own tongue? Oi, don’t focus on one dish! Drink the soup too! Don’t eat so fast! I’m not going to call the ambulance for you if you choke, you fool!”

Some 10 minutes later, Lin Feng rubbed his stomach in satisfaction.
“Whew… that was good.
Thanks.” He then checked his phone and immediately stood up.
“Shit! The game starts in 20 minutes! I’m going!”

Su Xue also got up.
“Hey! What are you so anxious about? You’re not even playing… Go brush your teeth first!”

Lin Feng halted his steps and turned around.
“You really are a nag, aren’t you?”

Su Xue was dumbstruck for a moment before her temper immediately flared.
“The hell! You little shit! Calling me a nag? If it wasn’t for your aunt telling me to take care of you, I wouldn’t give a rat’s ass about you! You think I want to hover over you like some old maid? Fine! I don’t care anymore! Scram, y—”

Lin Feng waved goodbye.
“Oh, alright.
Then I’ll be going! Bye!”

Su Xue unhappily stomped to the kitchen, empty plates in hand.
“Thankless brat! Cook him a nice meal, and this is what I get! Hmph! Next time, I’ll just feed him some rice gruel! Who wants to nanny someone else’s kid anyw…” Still grumbling as she walked back to the dining table, her eyes fell on a certain item.
She grabbed it and rushed out the door after Lin Feng.
“Hey, little fool! You forgot your keys—Fuck! I really have become your nanny!”

Lin Feng arrived at the NetCow Cafe a minute after the match with Class 8 was scheduled to start.
A large group of high schoolers were gathered around several computers.
Lin Feng recognized some of them as his new classmates.
Brushing past them, he could finally see the 10 representatives from both classes.
They had rented two rows of five computers that were opposite each other.
Over on Class 7’s side, Yang Fan and Ouyang were both getting ready to go into the match.
Next to them sat the thief who’d snatched away his opportunity to play in this game.

“Freaking ¥80 appearance fee! I said I’d do it for free, and they still won’t let me play!” Lin Feng prattled on like a broken record.

Ouyang happened to overhear this voice and turned around.
“Lin Feng, you’re here! Damn, I told you it was 7 o’clock, and you’re still late! You were almost gonna miss seeing me carry with my jungle!”

An angry female voice rang out from the crowd.
“Hey, Ouyang! Focus on the damn game! We’re already in champion select!”

Catching Ren Rou’s sharp glare, Ouyang gulped and immediately turned back to face the monitor.
Ren Rou then glanced at Lin Feng and instructed, “We can’t let anyone get distracted during the match.
So, hush.”

“O-oh, alright.” Lin Feng obediently nodded.

Ren Rou looked at Tang Bingyao and spoke with incomparable intimacy, “Tang Bingyao, you can do it! I get to see you carrying with your ad-carry first-hand today!”

Tang Bingyao earnestly nodded.
“Mhm! I won’t let the ¥80 go to waste!”

“Huh? What ¥80?” Ren Rou blurted out.

Tang Bingyao glanced over at Ouyang, who immediately broke into nervous laughter.
“Ahahaha… Rou Rou, I-i’ll explain it to you later.
Right right right! We should focus on the match!”

The banning phase came to an end.
One by one, the 10 representatives started picking their champions.
Ren Rou, Lin Feng, and the other students turned their full attention to the game.

Lin Feng looked over at Tang Bingyao.
At the very least, she appeared to be taking this match seriously.
Though given his first impression of her, that came as no surprise.
He wondered what champion she was going to play.
She was third in pick order.

A moment later, Lin Feng received his answer.
Tang Bingyao moved her mouse over a champion and the corresponding champion icon appeared next to her summoner.
Then, she locked him in.
Draven, The Glorious Executioner!
