LOL: The No. 1 Succubus in the eSports Circle

Chapter 88: On this way - kill Guan Gou and snatch Yu Shuang!

10 month 30 day.

Seoul.

The S8 World Championship will be held at the Munhak Arena in Incheon, but most of the staff at Riot headquarters and various regions live in Seoul.

There is no other reason, just because - the journey is short.

Driving from the LCK e-sports venue "LOL Park" in Jongno District, Seoul to the Munhak Stadium in Incheon is only 45 kilometers in total. If there is no traffic jam on the road, you can definitely get there within an hour.

To some extent, South Korea's small area seems to have certain advantages?
For Choi Taek, there is not much difference whether he lives in Seoul or Incheon.

The only thing he cared about was that he lost his job after returning to his country!
GBG, a five-man team temporarily formed by a few good brothers, was forced to disband in less than a week.

The reason for the disbandment was not that he, the initiator, offended his brothers, nor that irreconcilable conflicts arose among the team members, but that IG had a new love!

After a long period of rest, the SKT T1 team finally ended its vacation. All members returned to the base to carry out daily training and live broadcasts. They immediately invited IG to a training match, and IG immediately nodded in agreement.

God damn scumbag!
Well, in fact, it is a happy thing for Cui Ze and others that IG can find a serious training match partner.

After all, IG is currently aiming for the championship title in the global finals, which is related to the honor of LPL. Everyone hopes that they can have a better training environment.

Although he lost his job as a sparring partner with IG, Cui Ze quickly found a new busy direction.

It goes without saying that he will be doing live streaming to gain points in the evening. The hotel he stayed in was right next to LOL Park, which not only has an e-sports venue, but also a top-notch high-configuration internet cafe. The private rooms can even be equipped with live streaming equipment for customers in need.

Look, what is professionalism?
This is called professionalism!

Otherwise, why is it called "LOL Park"?

In addition to live streaming at night, Cui Ze would also follow Teacher Xi Ran's schedule during the day to find something to do.

Since he turned down the commentary offer for the finals on Douyu Channel 2, both Douyu and Xiaoxiang hope that he can create more buzz in Korea.

For example, he could become the number one player on the Korean server, or visit IG, FNC or LCK teams, or rekindle his relationship with Rita and start a scandal.

The gossip in a circle is always timeless and new.

Although the "Ze Tuanzi" CP appeared briefly on Douyu Channel 2 and had many fans and passers-by supporting them, the screen CP is just for fun. In the circle, the "Zeta" CP is the big one.

In fact, what the outside world doesn’t know is that on the afternoon of the 29th, Rita had just arrived in Seoul from Gwangju with a large group, and she immediately couldn’t wait to ask Choi Taek out shopping.

In fact, Cui Ze didn’t think there was anything interesting to go shopping, but with a beautiful sister by his side, it didn’t matter where he went.

I visited Itaewon in the afternoon, but the impression was not very good.

First of all, there were a lot of people, many Koreans and foreigners. It was crowded everywhere and there were not many managers to maintain order. No wonder the stampede happened.

Secondly, after figuring out the origin of the name "Itaewon", I inexplicably wondered if Koreans were sick?
It is really funny that such an insulting place name can become an economic landmark.

It’s better to have one in Apgujeong!
So they walked around Itaewon, and seeing that Choi Taek was not interested, Rita took him to Apgujeong in Gangnam District.

First, I ran to SM company to punch in. Unfortunately, my luck was not good today. I didn’t meet many familiar artists getting off work, let alone Yoona, whom Shi Senming was thinking about.

Afterwards we went to COEX shopping center to eat and shop, and finally ended the day with a happy time.

Although they said they were shopping, in fact, the two of them didn't buy anything. Rita bought some cosmetics and lipstick for herself, and she also spent money to buy a pair of AJs for Cui Ze.

Cui Ze originally wanted to reciprocate and give his sister a necklace of equal value as a gift, but Rita said she wanted nothing and said that if Cui Ze insisted on giving it, then their friendship would be overturned.

Sure enough, a sister who has had emotional experience is sensible.

But Cui Ze is not a fool. Even if his sister doesn’t accept expensive gifts, he can’t refuse a small gadget worth a hundred or eighty yuan, right?

So, when she left COEX Shopping Center, in addition to the shopping bags in her hands, Rita also had something on her head that was not there when she came:

A cute plush bear hat.

Sister Rita didn't like the expensive gifts, but she loved this plush bear hat and didn't want to take it off after putting it on.

Afterwards, she happily took photos with Cui Ze, and finally picked out two satisfactory solo selfies and posted them on Weibo.

As for why she didn't post the group photo, Rita actually wanted to post it at first, but it was Cui Zexiao who persuaded her emotionally and logically, and in the end she only posted a selfie.

In fact, Cui Ze could feel it. Although Rita looked like an experienced driver during the live broadcast, she could at least drive directly on the highway when she drove.

But when it comes to work and life, she is not that relaxed.

In the lounge, if no one talks to her, she always sits alone in the corner playing with her phone or reading notes, and rarely takes the initiative to chat with others. If she does, it is mostly to ask for advice, such as exchanging commentary experience with Wang Duoduo.

Outside of work, she is also the type who stays alone.

LPL has several commentator/host circles, big or small, and it seems that she may appear in every one of them, but it also seems that she has never integrated into any circle. Anyway, she will go as long as there is a party, and if there is no party, she will stay in the hotel and lie down.

So after sending her back to the hotel, Cui Ze did not take the initiative to ask to go up and sit with her.

Because he could feel that Rita didn't like a fast pace and was very confident in herself.

With the gift of [affinity] and the attribute of charm, it is only a matter of time before you delve into Rita's innermost thoughts.

"What? Aze, are you going to the SKT club for activities tomorrow?" After returning to the hotel, I met Teacher Xiran as a matter of course.

By the way, the reason why Choi Taek chose this hotel when he came to Seoul was entirely because Teacher Xi Ran had been staying there since September 9th.

The qualifying round of the S8 World Finals started in LOL Park. Although the final competition venue was in Incheon, Seoul is very close to Incheon, so it is more convenient to work in Seoul.

So the Shiquan Company was very helpful and directly helped Teacher Xiran book a room until November 11rd, the day he went to Incheon to follow the finals.

"Yeah, because SKT is coming out of vacation, and Douyu is planning to hold an event while we are still here, and then broadcast it live for domestic fans to watch."

"Are you alone?"

"No, there is also Aunt Yu Shuang."

"You guys, you're calling Sister Shuang old."

"It's okay. Yu Shuang likes to hear me call her aunt."

Visiting SKT, this is the job that Douyu assigned to Cui Ze.

As early as February this year, Douyu visited SKT's base. This time, taking advantage of the fact that all the members had just finished their vacation and gathered together, and had not yet fully entered the training state, and at this time before the S2 finals, they held another live broadcast to increase traffic.

The personnel have been confirmed. At the beginning, it will be Ren Dong + Yu Shuang, with an interpreter.

But after Choi Taek returned to Korea, he became very popular for his commentary of the semi-final between IG and G2, and he also insisted on turning down the live broadcast of the finals on Channel to watch the game in Korea. So since there are people in Korea who can be used, there is no need to bother Ren Dong to join in the fun, and by the way, a translator can be saved.

The person in charge of planning SKT's live broadcast program on Douyu said: "This is called keeping the wealth within the family."

Cui Ze prefers to call it: living frugally!

But it’s still nice to be able to work with my aunt to organize activities.

Come to think of it, isn’t Auntie a fertile field?

Cui Ze had really been coveting this fertile land for a long time, but he had been obsessed with flirting with Teacher Xiaoyu, so he temporarily put the task of cultivating the fertile land on hold.

This opportunity has come to me, how can I miss it?

Say auntie, auntie is here.

As soon as I mentioned her, a WeChat message came over.

[Yu Shuang YSCanice: Aze, are you still going to live stream tonight? ]

[Choi Taek: What's wrong, Auntie? If you have something to say, just tell me.]

[Yu Shuang YSCanice: Aren’t we going to SKT to do a live broadcast together tomorrow? I want to ask if you can spare some time to come and discuss the script with me]

[Yu Shuang YSCanice: If you are busy with your live broadcast, forget it. We won’t be there until the afternoon tomorrow anyway, so we can check it out in the morning.]

[Choi Taek: It’s okay, Auntie. It’s okay if I don’t do a live broadcast for a day. I can just take a day off.]

[Yu Shuang YSCanice: Okay, then you can come over now. You know the location, right? ]

[Cui Ze: I know the hotel you're staying in, but you have to send me the room number, after all, I haven't been there either.]

[Yu Shuang YSCanice: 1415, come on, I'll wait for you. ]

Cui Ze put away his phone, suppressed the urge to smirk, and said goodbye to Teacher Xi Ran: "Sister Xi Ran, Auntie wants me to go over and review the script for tomorrow. I'm leaving now!"

"Hey, wait."

"what happened?"

"Well." Xi Ran hesitated for a moment, leaned close to Cui Ze's ear and whispered, "You can compete with Sister Shuang, but try to do it faster."

"why?"

"Oh, it seems to me that she has had a conflict with Brother Guan recently. They stayed in the same hotel but booked two rooms. Although they slept separately, who knows if Brother Guan will suddenly come to his senses and apologize to her."

"Oh~" Cui Ze pretended to be enlightened: "Sister Xiran, you are afraid that the colonel will come to look for Sister Shuang, and I will be there, and then cause misunderstanding, right?"

"Yes, do you understand now?"

"Yeah, I see. Thank you, Teacher Xiran, for your reminder!"

"Don't be so joking. Go quickly. Remember to go early and come back early."

"Got it, let's go!"

Cui Ze quickly returned to his room and put on his coat, then walked downstairs with a brisk and cheerful pace to take a taxi and head towards the hotel where Aunt Yu Shuang was staying.

Are you having trouble?

Are you afraid that Guan Zeyuan will misunderstand?

I’m afraid the misunderstanding isn’t deep enough!
Here we go - kill Guan Gou and grab Yu Shuang!
