Chapter 10
Fortunately, 97 continued the conversation before it became too awkward. “The big battle is starting soon, so don’t just focus on our opponents. Come here, Xiao Oh, let’s talk about something interesting. Let’s talk about some gossip.”
The female commentator smiled gratefully. “Interesting…...Ah, right. I have heard that SP has rules that the active players are not allowed to fall in love? Does K&K have this type of inhumane rules?”
“This……” 97 smiled mysteriously. “There’s similar rule, but it’s not as inhumane as SP’s. Our rule only asks the active players not to mention their private relationships in public.”
The female commentator joked exaggeratedly, “But 97, we’ve been together for such a long, aren’t you ready to let everyone know?” 97 laughed happily, “Don’t rush, my dear. I can a.s.sure you that I’ll marry you with a million dollar wedding ceremony after I retire!”
The audience burst into laughter.
The male commentator also felt that this would be a perfect subject for the intermission. He ran to the SP area with microphone.
The female commentator quickly took the microphone to Grunt, “Then my G.o.d Grunt, I heard that your love life is always exciting? Is it true?” Grunt seemed to grin and glanced at Dt, “Exciting? Do you mean the love between me and the captain?” The female commentator covered her mouth immediately. “It’s finally coming out! So you finally admit it? !”
Grunt held up his chin with one hand and smiled innocently, “Have I said anything?”
……
Meanwhile, the male commentator reached the VIP area and asked the same question to Slide.
Slide was good at giving the runaround, “Oh, I can’t talk about it since we have the non disclosure rule. But I can give you a friendly hint that the forum gossips have more than 90% accuracy about everything SP related.”
……
A short message came in on her cell phone.
Dt wrote: Was everything okay on your way here?
She lowered her eyes at the cell phone screen, then turned to look at him in the players area.
She: Uhm. Does K&K have a rule about personal relationships?
Dt: Yes, there’s a written rule.
She: …...your cousin even cares about these issues.
Dt: He cares a bit too much about a lot of things.
She lowered her head and laughed. It wasn’t too much at least when compared to the inhumane clause of SP……
Soon, he sent another text message.
Dt: You try and get away from them after the compet.i.tion. I’ll take you somewhere.
She: Ok.
Why was she feeling like she was having an affair……
The slow music ended and the metal music started to play. On the large screen at the back of the stage, the names of more than a hundred competing teams displayed gradually turned gray, only eight teams remained.
The upper left corner had K&K and the lower right corner was Buff.
The finals was about to begin.
According to compet.i.tion schedule, the eight teams would play in a round robin.
Each team played two matches with the other seven teams. The top four team would enter the national group A final compet.i.tion and the other four teams entered into group B.
She calculated the time.
Each match took about thirty minutes. It would take seven hours for all fourteen matches plus the ten minutes break between each match…...Fortunately they were in Guangzhou, otherwise all these players would starve to death after all the games finished.
Dt stood up first, the other four players followed his lead, putting away their entertainment devices, and picked up each of their equipment. She looked at him from the distance. She saw him lower his head and talked to Grunt and 97. She couldn’t hear what he was talking about but apparently this was the first time she noticed……
Actually, he was a very qualified captain.
This captain who, shortly after finishing speaking to his players, took out his cell phone and sent her a short text message before he entered the compet.i.tion area.
Dt: Remember go dinner at six.
She: ……
Dt: It’ll be very late when we play with Buff, you have enough time to eat.
Ai Qing’s finger swept over cell phone screen.
He suddenly sent over a large text.
What was that?
She looked at it carefully……
She found that the message listed all the restaurants around this arena with detailed addresses, chef’s specials, and estimated cost for each person.
