"We won... Finally, we won!"
Chen Yuan forced out the words, his lips trembling uncontrollably. He balled his fist, wanting to pump it in the air, but ended up slamming his hand on the desk.
The tension in his shoulders instantly vanished.
"We finally won, waah..."
Jiangg Yao couldn't help but wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes. God only knew how much effort she had put into this ga, and how seriously she had taken it!
They had played five gas, from ten at night until twelve-thirty in the morning.
She had watched Chen Yuan's face go from its usual fair complexion to a sickly yellow, then turn ashen, and finally flush red!
Every ga had a chance of victory, but they either ran into incredibly tenacious opponents, had teammates who intentionally threw the ga, or Yaoyao and Ningning played terribly and fed the enemy.
In one ga, they even had a huge early-ga advantage, but a teammate went AFK halfway through.
If they hadn't won this ti, Chen Yuan would have been on the verge of a full-blown ltdown.
Fortunately, "Xiaobaoqi" was a great help! She didn't feed and obediently stuck with Chen Yuan.
Yaoyao was also very considerate, even pulling off a clutch Crucible cleanse during a team fight!
After a few team fights, Chen Yuan managed to secure kills every ti.
By the ti the final Elder Dragon fight broke out, he had already grown into a massive BOSS!
Level 17 with a Resurrection Armor!
He first attacked the support, proccing his B-level score, then used E, followed by a basic attack and Q to get another score proc, and finally flashed into the fray!
A chaotic spray from his Purgatory Trigger!
In less than a second, the enemy's squishy lineup was instantly obliterated. The Clockwork Spirit was taken down before she could even use her Golden Body.
Then they pushed for the win. Only when the animation of the enemy base exploding appeared on screen did he let out a long sigh of relief.
Half a minute passed after the victory.
Chen Yuan was still admiring his match history, completely satisfied.
He had actually wanted to give up after the fourth match. The pressure of carrying two girls was just too much, but his competitive spirit wouldn't let him quit. He persevered and finally clinched this precious victory.
If he had gone to bed after the fourth ga, he probably would have shot up in bed at four in the morning, ranting, "No, seriously, why can't we just win?"
"Ah, so satisfying! So happy!" Chen Yuan leaned back comfortably in his gaming chair.
"So cool! You were so cool, Young Master! The mont you went in, I just knew we were going to win!" Jiangg Yao chid in with tily praise, giving him a thumbs-up.
"I did find a good opportunity to engage."
"And your chanics during the laning phase were so precise! Your positioning in team fights was practically flawless!" Yaoyao continued to lay on the flattery.
"Hehehe." The praise made Chen Yuan grin from ear to ear.
Jiangg Yao got up from her gaming chair, walked up behind him, and started kneading his cheeks, whispering, "Such flashy plays! Such lethal damage! In just an instant, it was all 'DA-DA-DA-DA' and you killed them all!"
"Ahahaha... It was nothing special."
Chen Yuan was beaming, so giddy from his girlfriend's praise he felt like he was floating.
Their room was filled with laughter and joy.
anwhile, in another suite in the hotel.
Wearing her headphones, Jiangg Ning listened quietly. A smile gradually ford on her lips, and she let out a relieved sigh, feeling as if a weight had been lifted from her entire body.
She propped up her chin, her eyes filled with infinite tenderness and affection.
...
"Want to play another one? Since you're on such a roll!"
Perhaps the thrill of victory was too exhilarating, or the intense excitent of the competitive ga had swept away her evening languor. Jiangg Yao found she wasn't quite ready to stop.
But as soon as Chen Yuan heard this, he imdiately shook his head frantically.
"No, no, no. One win is good enough. What if we just get stomped next ga?"
"Aww..."
A distinctly unsatisfied hum ca from Jiangg Yao's throat. She snuggled into Chen Yuan's embrace, sat on his lap, and pleaded in a soft, sweet voice, "Are you saying I'm bad? I tried my best, waah..."
"No, I'm not."
"You totally are!"
"I haven't said a single bad thing about you this whole ti, okay? How is that saying you're bad?"
"Then why didn't you praise ? I've praised you so many tis," Jiangg Yao said, aggrieved. She bit her lip and furrowed her pretty brows, looking the very picture of a poor, pitiful thing.
"Alright, alright. Yaoyao, you were amazing. That instant Crucible cleanse was so clutch. It's safe to say we couldn't have won this ga without you!"
As soon as he said that, the corners of Jiangg Yao's mouth instantly curved up, and she broke into a pouting smile.
She looked incredibly smug.
She had, of course, deliberately made Chen Yuan say it so her sister would hear!
On the other side, in her dimly lit gaming room, a scornful look appeared on Jiangg Ning's face. She knew exactly what her little sister was thinking. There was no way she would get angry and lose her composure, letting her sister's little sche succeed!
'Yaoyao, oh Yaoyao... you really shouldn't use these petty tricks to vie for attention. Where's your sense of grace...?' Jiangg Ning thought to herself.
Back in the gaming room they shared, Chen Yuan had lost his enthusiasm to keep playing, but seeing how excited Jiangg Yao was tonight, he didn't feel sleepy either.
So, he suggested, "How about we switch to a different ga?"
"Switch? What ga should we switch to?"
"Let look..."
Chen Yuan opened the ga store and browsed for a bit. In the end, his eyes landed on an unassuming-looking ga.
His eyes instantly lit up.
"Let's play Don't Starve!"
"Don't Starve?" Jiangg Yao thought for a mont. The na sounded familiar. "I think I've heard of that ga. I've even seen so videos about it. The art style seems pretty dark."
"That's right. It's a dark action-adventure ga. We have to try and survive in a strange world, gathering resources with our own two hands and crafting everything ourselves. We'll have to help each other, rely on one another to live, and defeat monsters," Chen Yuan explained.
