The Most Majestic You
Chapter 19 Part 2
Qianxi kept recalling the first time she met him when she bombarded him with questions and he firmly, but gloomily answered-- --
“TI.”
“I’ll be the TI champion, this year.”
At the time, she would never have imagined that she would be standing under the stage witnessing his journey towards that goal.
Twenty minutes into the first round, KG was behind by a large margin. Facing the fierce attack from the enemy, they could only react pa.s.sively and endure the pounding.
Qianxi nervously turned her head to find Tundra next to her.
“Looks like he’s not in his best condition.” Tundra bent over and squinted at her. “Your responsibility?”
Qianxe unconsciously backed away with a delinquent face closing in on her. “What do you mean…...my responsibility……?”
“He’s easily distracted.” Tundra pointed to his own temple and regretfully said, “Thinking too much.”
He seemed to have lost interest in the game, waved at her, and stepped back to leave, “I’m going. Bye, little beauty~”
Seriously…...she didn’t like him.
All the KG members were much nicer!
“Weird.” Qianxi spoke to herself. Then she returned her focus to the big screen. It seemed that they had come back up a bit.
Each match that day was in deadlock most of the time, just as Tundra had said, “back and forth.” By the time they won the best of three, it was already dinner time. When doing the after game interview, every KG player was exhausted after winning such a difficult battle. After the interview, they went with her to a restaurant and everyone was much quieter than usual.
Halfway through dinner, Cheng Yang and Li Cang regained some of their normal vitality. They used an iPad to watch the interview they just did.
Cheng Yang flipped the screen sideways to show Qianxi, “Look, young lady boss, they’re praising you on the bullet comments.”[1]
Qianxi checked the screen with a spoon still in her mouth. The suit she had picked out was quite effective; she looked slender with long legs on screen. The difference between this and the last time was indescribable. The makeup further enhanced her nice features making her look even more elegant. It seemed that this was a different person than the last time.
The bullet comments had taken a one-eighty from last time-- --[This translator is much prettier than the host.], [Who picked the host? Why not let Xiaoyue do it?], [I think this translator is more beautiful than Xiaoyue.]......
Her vanity was greatly gratified!
Hmph, she wondered whether these people were the same group as last time, whether they still remembered the “ghost translator” they talked about last time?
“They have good taste~” She was very pleased with herself and raised her head.
She met with a pair of very cold eyes.
Why was he still so unhappy after winning the game……
Qianxi stopped smiling and asked the person across from her, “......are you not feeling well?”
Xu Jimo didn’t eat much, then abruptly got up and left.
Qianxi watched the his back view and exchanged a look with Li Cang and the others: What was going on? Ever since the match started, he seemed to have changed into a different person.
Cheng Yang looked as if he knew some secret, but kept gesturing to Qianxi encouraging her, “Young lady boss, go ahead, if you want to.”
“Ah?”
“I think you should go have a talk with him. Really.” Cheng Yang put his hand on his forehead to look around. “Hurry, it’ll be too late if you don’t hurry.”
Li Cang and Cheng Yang worked together to push Qianxi out of the restaurant.
What was this…...she hadn’t finished her dinner yet.
She turned her head and saw Xu Jimo was leaning next to the doorway about to light up a cigarette. Seeing her stumble out, he put down the cigarette and asked, “Done eating?”
“En……” She wasn’t ready to talk to him yet! What was Cheng Yang and the others up to? Pushing her out for no reason and she didn’t know what to do now that she was here.
Qianxi had no choice but to brace herself and ask while pointing to the cigarette, “Are you feeling down?”
“It’s nothing.”
“Today, I…...met that arithmetic problem.”
Xu Jimo raised his eyes, “Arithmetic problem?”
“Uh-huh. That Tundra, Shang Quan.” She still found the name to be strange when she said it again. She scratched her head and carefully asked, “Is it because of him that you are feeling down?”
“Why do you say that all of a sudden.” He threw the cigarette into the trash can with perfect precision. “Has he done something to irritate you?”
Qianxi looked up and thought about it. “Not really…...he’s just kind of weird.”
“How so?”
“I don’t know how to say it……” She looked troubled, failing to come up with a proper description. “Anyway, he just doesn’t give off a good vibe.”
“......not as good as you.” She added.
