Chapter 737: Working For China to Retake the World Championship Trophy

Editor: Henyee Translations

Qin Xian’s smile froze, and he quickly corrected him. “Who said 1.6 meters? I’m 1.69 meters. If you round it up, it’s 1.7 meters!”

Gu Pei was skeptical, estimating that Qin Xian was at most 1.68 meters tall. However, not wanting to jeopardize their budding friendship over a minor detail, he let it go.

“Brother Xian, let’s reintroduce ourselves. My name is Gu Pei.”

“Brother Whale Explosion, my name is Qin Xian.”

Gu Pei and Qin Xian shook hands, each feeling that the other’s name sounded somewhat familiar, but neither dwelled on it.

After their introductions, Qin Xian handed Gu Pei the Team Blue Whale keychain he had promised. They chatted amiably and then found a spot to play games together.

Once the game started

“Brother Whale Explosion, come and save me!”

“Brother Xian, you die first. I’ll go and push down the tower opposite.”

First round, win, MVP: Gu Pei.

“Brother Xian, I’m almost out of HP. Help me add some!”

“I’ll send you back to the spawn point so you can recover faster.”

“So you killed me???”

“This game allows you to kill your teammates. Isn’t that how it’s supposed to be used?”

Second round, win, MVP: Qin Xian.

Gu Pei and Qin Xian played more than ten rounds of Legend of Gods in a row. Whether it was a duo or a five-man team battle, they won consistently, with the MVP titles alternating between them. Their seamless cooperation and tireless enthusiasm kept them going.

Their seats were in front of the bar counter at the internet café.

The owner of the Grass-Raising Internet Cafe was a scruffy young man with a scraggly beard and black-rimmed glasses. His stray hair slightly covered his eyes. The bar counter was adorned with many plants, and a big, fat orange cat lay sprawled out on it.

The owner of the internet cafe was stroking the cat, admiring its beautiful, slender, well-proportioned bones and distinct joints under its soft orange fur.

When Gu Pei and Qin Xian entered, the owner noticed them because of their lively conversation. Hearing their banter, he stopped stroking the cat, curiosity piqued, and walked over to observe them.

After seeing the two of them win more than ten rounds in a row, the owner’s deep eyes, visible under his black-framed glasses, flashed with inexplicable shock. Winning so consistently with such seamless teamwork was impressive—almost ridiculous.

Qin Xian finished the Coke on the table in one gulp, crushed the can, and tossed it into the trash basket beside him. He suddenly noticed the person standing behind them and was startled. “Boss Cao, why aren’t you stroking the cat anymore?”

Qin Xian was a regular at the Grass-Raising Internet Cafe. In his experience, Boss Cao usually sat at the bar counter at the entrance, petting the cat and occasionally trimming the flowers and leaves.

Boss Cao looked away and said calmly, “Are you guys in eSports?”

“That’s right! Boss Cao, you have good taste!” Qin Xian exclaimed, reaching out to put his arm around Gu Pei’s shoulder. He raised his head and puffed out his chest. “My brother and I are working hard to win the world championship trophy for our country! Right, Brother Whale Explosion?”

“That’s right!” Gu Pei raised his eyebrows, his eyes filled with youthful arrogance.

The eyes of the two youths lit up with determination, and for a moment, Cao Cuo’s gaze softened, his expression slightly dazed. Someone had once told him they would work hard to win the world championship trophy for China, with a similarly bright light in their eyes…

“Meow!”

The orange cat, which had been lying on the bar counter with its eyes narrowed, jumped down. Cao Cuo picked up the cat and rubbed its furry head, his eyes turning desolate and sad as he muttered, “Little liar.”

At that moment, Qin Xian’s excited voice suddenly rang out from behind. “F*ck! Brother Whale Explosion, you can actually use the Whale God’s ‘Life-Reaping Chain Kill’?! How did you do it?”
