Qiao Lian looked at Su Penghao questioningly. “Zombie Leader, you yourself have a notable background. Do you really believe her words?”
Her remark took Su Penghao by surprise and he frowned.
“Do you really think that a coach would not know which champion the team should ban?”
Su Penghao kept silent.
Qiao Lian sighed. “Zombie Leader, you believe in Purple Fairy so much?”
Su Penghao lifted his head and looked at her steadily. “It’s not her that I believe in, I believe in Xiao Qiao. Xiao Qiao and Zi Chuan were both impressive and well-regarded people back in the days. And even though eight years have pa.s.sed since then, I believe that she still would not use underhanded means.”
Qiao Lian was stunned when she heard this.
She felt a sudden warmth in her heart.
She and Zi Chuan had disappeared from the gaming world for eight years.
But they were still remembered.
Qiao Lian pursed her lips. She eventually did not utter the rebuking words that had come to mind, but instead said, “Do your best later.”
Then she added, “Best Actor Shen is here tonight, so the boss is watching you guys play. Make sure you show your stuff.”
Su Penghao nodded impatiently.
Having heard Qiao Lian mention Best Actor Shen, he looked up again with curiosity.
After a pause, he asked her, “Do you know Best Actor Shen very well?”
Although the two of them had never admitted to any sort of relations.h.i.+p, Su Penghao had noticed that there was something quite special between them.
Not that he cared whether she was Mrs. Shen.
Qiao Lian was puzzled by his question. “Why?”
Su Penghao paused and looked hesitant. Just when Qiao Lian thought that he wasn’t going to say anything, he suddenly spoke, “Best Actor Shen… is he… Zi Chuan?”
Qiao Lian looked up at him in disbelief after this remark.
Shen Liangchuan… was Zi Chuan?
How… would this be possible?
She felt like laughing and crying at the same time, and a dull ache gnawed at her heart.
After all, Zi Chuan was someone she had liked eight years ago, and Shen Liangchuan was the man she loved now.
She shook her head and said, “No, he’s not.”
Su Penghao frowned and said, “How could it be? The last time I had a one-on-one fight with him, his maneuvering—”
At this point, the lounge door was flung open.
His was interrupted mid-sentence.
Everyone in the lounge looked at the doorway instantaneously and saw that it was Purple Fairy. She was carrying a few packages of milk tea. “The nasty things that our team members said just then… I thought about it and I’m concerned that Forget Chuan may hold it against us. I’m really sorry. This tea is on me, consider it a little token of apology!”
As she said this, she walked straight into the room.
Qiao Lian immediately stopped her. “Stand right there.”
Purple Fairy halted.
Qiao Lian walked to the doorway and stopped in front of her, preventing her from advancing.
Looking intently at Purple Fairy with a frown, she said after a pause, “How careless do you think we’d be, eating something given by the opponent team right before a match?”
Purple Fairy froze and put on a hurt and pitiful expression. She looked at Su Penghao. “Are you… are you suspecting that I’ve put something into the milk tea?”
Qiao Lian threw a glance at Su Penghao and said, “It’s better to be safe than sorry. We will not accept this milk tea.”
Purple Fairy’s expression turned cold and then, looking quite angry, she picked up one of the cups and tore off the lid. “If you think that I’ve altered the milk tea, I’ll drink it right now before your eyes!”
