League: I really didn't tank!

Chapter 76 Going Home (Sixth Update, Please Subscribe!!!)

Back in the lounge, I was greeted by a barrage of compliments from the two coaches and the manager.

"Alright, alright, let's go eat." Chen Dongqing rubbed his stomach. "I'm starving."

Uz, unusually energetic, shouted, "Let's go, let's go, I can't hold on any longer!"

Today's match started a little late, at 7 o'clock. Matches at this time are always the most grueling because they can't eat too much for lunch in order to maintain their competitive form.

Actually, Chen Dongqing's attributes are locked, so even if he eats his fill before going on stage, it won't have any impact.

But none of his four teammates ate it, so he couldn't possibly make an exception.

Without saying a word, the group headed straight for Haidilao in Hongqiao Tiandi, a place they frequented.

"Since this is the last match before the Spring Festival, I'll treat you to dinner today, okay?" Manager Linko said with a smile. "After this meal, we'll have our holiday as scheduled."

"Great!" Everyone agreed in unison, and even Chen Dongqing was happy to see this.

He won MVP for the second time today, and normally he would treat everyone to a meal. The manager treating everyone saved him money.

Linko picked up the ordering tablet from the store and handed it to Uz: "Let's order first."

When it comes to ordering food, Uzi is absolutely professional, even more so than Kid.

Uzi didn't hesitate and quickly ordered quite a few items. Then he handed the tablet to the people next to him so they could look at it and make some comments.

The broth had barely been served when he went to the condiment area and grabbed a large plate of beef cubes, pouring them into the tomato broth. He was clearly starving.

While the food was being served, Chen Dongqing took out his phone to check the anti-racism forum.

The QG vs. LGD match was a rematch of last year's summer finals, so it attracted a lot of attention. But no one expected that the two matches would last for less than an hour in total, which led to a lot of discussion on the forums.

[Hey, isn't this the FMVP? Why are you looking so bad after just a few days?]

[Previously, some people said Ilex was trying to piggyback on Marin's success; now, they've gotten themselves knocked down!]

Marin could previously defend himself by saying he was being targeted, but these two games were purely due to his superior individual skill; there's no way to deny it.

This is like tearing off the fig leaf completely.

A clean and decisive 2-0 victory seemed to have given QG fans a double dragon buff and a 10,000 gold advantage, and they are now waging war across the forums!

With such a huge advantage, which team could possibly lose?

After finishing their meal and returning to the base, it was officially the start of their holiday. If Chen Dongqing wanted, he could even pack his bags and go home right now.

But it's already past 11 p.m., and his parents are asleep, so he's still obediently going back tomorrow.

As for the other teammates, they had already booked their tickets and will be returning tomorrow.

"Don't rest during the holidays. Keep your schedules in order and remember to play ranked matches regularly to maintain your skills. Don't come back and find that you don't know how to play the game anymore."

The manager was still giving instructions in the training room.

Uzi nodded: "Okay, don't worry. There's not much to do back home, so I play at least five ranked games a day."

"Okay then." Linko nodded.

Chen Dongqing chuckled and said, "Don't worry, I'll keep training!"

Linko rolled his eyes and said, "Whatever makes you happy."

After saying that, Linko turned and left; from now on, he was also on vacation.

After giving their instructions, it was almost midnight. Without lingering, everyone returned to their respective dormitories to wash up and go to sleep.

Chen Dongqing packed her clothes before going to bed.

He didn't bring many clothes, just some basic underwear. He had many of these things at home, and since his home was nearby, he could come anytime.

Dragging his suitcase to the door, Doinb was surprised to find that he had already started playing games in the training room.

And there was actually someone sitting next to him.

Upon closer inspection, Chen Dongqing was somewhat surprised to find that it was actually Tang Xiaoyou.

He walked into the training room and asked, "Brother, aren't you leaving for the New Year?"

Although Doinb is Korean, we share the East Asian cultural sphere and both celebrate the Lunar New Year.

"I'm not going back. The Spring Festival isn't that important to us," Doinb said. "Going back to Korea is too much trouble. Anyway, there are people maintaining the base, so I'll just stay here and play ranked games."

"Impressive." Chen Dongqing highly praised Big B's professional attitude.

However, he glanced at Tang Xiaoyou next to Doinb, thought for a moment, and then asked, "Sister Li, aren't you going home for the Chinese New Year?"

Tang Xiaoyou is Doinb's girlfriend and occasionally comes to the base, so Chen Dongqing naturally knows her.

Tang Xiaoyou, whose real name is Li Youzi, said, "I'm from Jiangsu, so it's very convenient for me to go home. I'll stay here for a few days first."

Play for a few days.

Because his former roommate Swift has transferred to another team, Doinb now lives alone in a dormitory.

In that case

Tsk tsk.

Chen Dongqing didn't interfere. He simply said goodbye to the two of them and then turned and left.

Upon returning home with his luggage, Chen Dongqing was immediately greeted by his parents on both sides of the road.

Chen Dongqing looked at his parents waiting downstairs and smiled, "It's not like we haven't been back for very long, there's no need for that, is there?"

"What are you thinking about?" Dad didn't mince words. "We went out for a walk and just got back. We were just waiting for you."

As they were talking, the family of three walked into the building. Coincidentally, just then, the door on the first floor opened, and a tall woman came out.

"Oh, isn't this Yuanhua?" Mom's eyes lit up. "You're back?"

Lin Yuanhua peeked out and, upon seeing the three of them, immediately smiled and said, "Auntie, I just got back too."

Chen Dongqing greeted him with a smile.

He and Lin Yuanhua have also been in occasional contact these past few days.

Because the other party had already taken his advice and applied for a job at Banana Culture, the organizer of the LPL tournament, and because he had a formal education in the field, he had a great advantage and has now successfully become an intern host for LDL.

Theoretically speaking, the other party is now practically his colleague, and if the other party gets promoted smoothly, they might soon be able to stand on the same stage.

Chen Dongqing went upstairs to his room, where his mother had already made the bed neatly. He casually set up his peripherals, tossed his suitcase to the bedside, and sat down in a chair to turn on his computer.

Mom walked into the room and saw Chen Dongqing already playing on the computer. Her tone was slightly reproachful as she said, "Why are you playing on the computer as soon as you get home? Take your luggage out and put it away first."

As soon as Chen Dongqing got home, he heard a reproachful tone. Slightly impatient, he said without turning his head, "I need to turn on the computer and update the game first. I'll do it while I'm updating."

Mom added, "Your dad and I watch every game you play on this computer. You have no idea how happy your dad is when he hears the commentators praising you on the live stream."

Chen Dongqing casually replied, "Well, it was alright. The recent opponents weren't very strong, and my teammates were also very good, which is why we were able to win."

"It's good that you won. You still need to train harder in the future. I saw those comments online, and they all said that you don't train usually, so what are you doing playing PUBG all day?" My mom kept saying from behind me, "You rarely have this opportunity to perform, so don't get too cocky."

Chen Dongqing fell silent for a moment, unsure how to explain the situation. He could only say, "Don't worry, I train very hard, otherwise I wouldn't have won so easily."

"That's good." Mom added, "You don't seem to be eating very well these past few months? You look like you've lost weight."

"I'm eating well!" Chen Dongqing felt his mother was talking nonsense and said impatiently, "I weigh myself regularly, and I've even gained two pounds in the last two months. Don't talk nonsense!"

Finally, he turned around impatiently and saw that his mother had neatly arranged the contents of the suitcase on the bed.

Then Mom casually picked up Chen Dongqing's towel and toothbrush, seemingly intending to take them to the bathroom.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Mom said with a smile, "I often watch your live streams when I have nothing to do. You often finish a game even when you're hungry, and sometimes you don't eat lunch until two or three in the afternoon. You can't do that in the future; you must eat on time."

Chen Dongqing was slightly taken aback, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.

The following section will feature a slice-of-life scene, but it won't last long, about two and a half chapters, and will advance the romance.

I still need to write about the plot during the Chinese New Year.
