Chapter 47: A Sob Story on the Field, Tears Stained for Empty Fame; Zhou Yu's Cold-Hearted Cleverness Seizes the Military Seal and Decides the Fate of the World
The Joker, who had been so confident just moments before, now became hesitant and timid.

It took him a long time to finally utter a single sentence.

"Maybe he'll ask not to play himself..."

Zhou Li simply smiled and said nothing more.

If it were someone else, they might actually back down in this situation because they're afraid of taking the blame.

But the personality of the big-nosed person would definitely not be like that.

Big Nose is an extremely proud man, and also very competitive.

And he's not stupid.

In this situation, if he continues to play, even if he loses, he will at most get some flak, not to mention he still has the "buff" of a hand injury.

But if Zhou Li plays and wins the game, then Zhou Li will truly become WE's savior.

It's worth noting that Zhou Li's cards in the first group stage match were compared by netizens to those of Ruofeng.

Ruofeng would never give Zhou Li such an opportunity again.

Seeing Joker's arrogant demeanor, Zhou Li took out his phone.

He knew he had to ask that woman for help.

Soon, the WE team returned to the rest room dejectedly.

Ruofeng continued to apologize to his teammates.

However, he also sincerely expressed his promise to perform well in the next game.

This prevented Xiaoxiao from opening her mouth, even though she had wanted to ask for a replacement several times.

But Zhou Li wasn't buying it; he spoke directly:

"Captain Feng, I'll play next time. You can get some rest."

Upon hearing Zhou Li's words, a fleeting look of resentment crossed Ruofeng's face.

“You can’t play now,” he said, then put on a righteous expression. “If you play now and we lose, you’ll be the one taking the blame for me. I, Ruofeng, take responsibility for my actions and would never betray my teammates!”

Hearing Ruofeng's words, Zhou Li couldn't hold back any longer.

Are you pretending to be your mother?

When Zhou Li swore, the atmosphere in the entire lounge froze.

Joker immediately stepped forward and said:

"Zhou Li, what are you doing? Talk to me properly, why are you swearing!"

Zhou Li smiled and pointed at the big-nosed man's nose, then started cursing.

"What do you mean you're afraid I'll take the blame? You're just a sore loser! Everyone's worked so hard this past year, all to prove themselves at the S2 World Championship! And what did you do? For your own selfish gain, you dragged your four teammates here to put on a show, saying you'd take all the blame if we lost. Don't you think the efforts of the other four are important?! How can you do this to Strawberry, who endures pressure every day? How can you do this to Smile, who carries the team every day? How can you do this to DaoGe and IF, who fawn over you every day?!"

When Dao Ge heard Zhou Li call him a simp, he immediately stood up.

"What the hell are you talking about?"

Ruofeng pretended to stop Dao Ge, but in his heart he was thinking, why isn't Dao Ge rushing up to fight Zhou Li yet?

Dao Ge pretended to rush forward, but when he saw Ruo Feng blocking him, he breathed a sigh of relief. He thought to himself that if he really rushed forward at his height of 1.65 meters, he would be beaten up like a chicken.

When Zhou Li pointed his finger at Ruofeng and berated him, Ruofeng could no longer keep up the act.

"I know you really want to play and get promoted, but this game is very important for us, and I can't abandon my four teammates!"

"You know it's important, huh?"

Zhou Li pulled out the data from the previous match.

"I was playing Twisted Fate and got completely crushed under the tower by Orianna. The enemy invaded my jungle and I was AFK under the tower. They said they'd use their ultimate to fly down and help gank, but it turned out they were ganking their own teammate. I landed with only 300 gold and my CS was 70 CS behind Orianna the whole game. Are you even human? Even a dog in mid lane could play better than you."

Ruofeng's face turned purplish-blue with anger, and then he heard Zhou Li continue:
"I don't believe everyone thinks you played perfectly. Let's raise our hands and vote to see who plays in the next game!"

As soon as Zhou Li finished speaking, Ruofeng's expression instantly improved.

He never expected that Zhou Li, this hothead, would cause such a ruckus in the end.

I was literally laughing my ass off.

Ruofeng has worked so hard to build WE for so long, if you ask them to raise their hands and vote, he doesn't believe he has no one to support him.

Otherwise, it would truly be a waste of life.

"Okay, since you have objections, let's have a vote and decide democratically. I hope you'll be convinced by then."

Zhou Li suddenly laughed. "Of course, I'm absolutely convinced."

Seeing the smile on Zhou Li's face, Ruofeng felt a sense of unease.

But his confidence quickly overwhelmed her.

Excluding him and Zhou Li, there are now five people on the field.

Dao Ge and IF will definitely vote for him.

Strawberry and I have always had a very good relationship.

In other words, Ruofeng is guaranteed at least three votes.

In Ruofeng's opinion, the only one who might vote for Zhou Li was Weixiao.

Just as Ruofeng was about to speak, Joker shook his head and sighed.

"Nonsense, I abstain."

Then, Strawberry spoke up somewhat shyly:

"I'll abstain too."

Ruofeng was taken aback when he heard what Strawberry said.

He could understand Joker's withdrawal, but Strawberry's withdrawal really surprised him.

Although Strawberry abstained, Ruofeng felt that this action was no different from betraying him.

Strawberry, who kept shouting "I want to play Brotherhood," was also corrupted without anyone noticing.

Joker and Strawberry abstained, leaving only Dao Ge, IF, and Smile as voters.

Although Strawberry's backstabbing behavior displeased Ruofeng, in fact, Ruofeng felt more secure.

Ruofeng said with a smile:

"Raise your hand if you want Zhou Li to play in the next game."

The lounge was quiet; no one made a move.

Just as Ruofeng was about to laugh, he saw a smiling gaze directed at Zhou Li.

Zhou Li then nodded, smiled, and slowly raised his hand.

Although smiling and raising her hand was within Ruofeng's expectations, it still made him feel very uncomfortable.

But a smile alone can't change anything.

Ruofeng smiled and said:

"Zhou Li, it seems like only Wei Xiao supports you. You're willing to accept defeat?"

Hearing Ruofeng's words, Zhou Li also laughed.

"Okay, a bet's a bet. But first, take a look at the person next to you."

Ruofeng was taken aback.

The only people standing next to him were Dao Ge and IF.

He had absolute trust in his two good brothers, so he didn't even look at them just now.

Ruofeng slowly turned his head and saw IF with his head down, but his hand was raised.

Ruofeng stared wide-eyed in disbelief, while Daoge launched into a tirade of curses.

"Holy crap, what the hell do you mean by IF?!"

IF trembled, lowering his head and not daring to look into Ruofeng and Daoge's murderous eyes.

"Alright," Zhou Li clapped his hands, "Captain Feng, go and get some rest. Let's discuss the tactics for the next game."

Ruofeng stood frozen in place, his mind blank.

why?
He didn't understand what Zhou Li had actually done.

Why did I become so isolated and abandoned by everyone in less than a month?

What Ruofeng didn't know was that his good brother IF had already been tricked into becoming a cuckold by AA's refusal to eat cilantro.

AA's aversion to cilantro is merely a formality in his rituals.
