[Esports] Team Leader Xie, your mid laner is causing trouble again.

Li Zhi opened her mouth, wanting to speak, but didn't know what to say.

Fang Jingnian continued, "After being diagnosed with this disease, I felt very guilty and depressed."

"This matter almost became a knot in A-Chuan's father's heart, which is why he disregarded everything and took A-Chuan abroad back then."

"Over the years, we've tried our best to make up for Achuan's shortcomings in life. He likes e-sports, so we let him play. His father even acquired an e-sports company so that Achuan could take over after retiring. But our concern has clouded our judgment..."

At this point, her tone carried a hint of regret, "By a twist of fate, you two were separated for two whole years."

Fang Jingnian looked up at Li Zhi, smiled apologetically, and said, "Your aunt and uncle owe you an apology."

Li Zhi panicked immediately, waving her hands helplessly:

"No, Auntie, this has little to do with you. I understand your love for your son."

What he said was the truth.

If two people want to contact each other, they can talk even if they are separated by an entire globe.

For those two years, they were simply hiding from each other.

One dared not approach, the other dared not ask, and so they simply missed each other.

Fang Jingnian was about to say something more when the door was suddenly pushed open.

Xie Jichuan walked in with a sour face.

He handed the phone back to Fang Jingnian, and without saying a word began to pack his things with his backpack. His movements were swift and decisive, as if he were in a hurry to leave.

Fang Jingnian raised an eyebrow in surprise: "What's wrong? Didn't you talk to Dad properly?"

Xie Jichuan snorted coldly, his tone icy: "It's too much trouble to say anything when we don't see eye to eye."

He slung his bag over his shoulder without even looking up. "He said he'd be coming over later, so I'll take Zhizhi back to the base first. I don't want to run into him."

Fang Jingnian smiled helplessly.

The father and son have not gotten along well since he was forcibly taken abroad two years ago.

However, it was only at times like these that Xie Jichuan would reveal a trace of his lingering childlike nature.

So Fang Jingnian was quite happy to watch it.

She especially enjoyed watching him make the person opposite her so angry that they would blow their beard and glare at her.

Xie Jichuan moved quickly, packing a backpack in no time, which contained essential inhibitors and a few changes of clothes.

He zipped up his jacket, walked over and forcefully grabbed Li Zhi's hand without saying a word, said goodbye to Fang Jingnian, and pushed open the door to leave.

Alpha took long strides, and Li Zhi practically jogged behind him, panting as she followed.

As I was running, the person in front of me suddenly stopped without warning.

Li Zhi slammed on the brakes but couldn't stop in time. Thinking she was about to crash hard into Xie Jichuan's back, she began to silently mourn for her nose.

The next second, a large hand covered his face.

Xie Jichuan squeezed Li Zhi's cheeks hard, forcing him to pout and turn into a pouty little chicken beak.

The irritation between Alpha's brows finally dissipated, transforming into bright, radiant joy:

"Where did this little chick come from, throwing itself at my arms?"

Li Zhi glared at him, raised her hand to slap Xie Jichuan's hand away, rubbed her cheek which was a little sore from being pinched, and asked in an annoyed tone:

"What did your dad say to you? You seem so annoyed."

The two had already left the residential area and were no longer worried about encountering any uninvited guests, so Xie Jichuan slowed down his pace.

With his hands in his pockets, he said casually, "It's nothing, I just said the alliance is going to fine both me and Dashan."

Li Zhi was somewhat surprised: "It's sexism, I thought it would at least result in a month-long suspension."

At this point, Xie Jichuan's already volatile emotions, caused by his sensitive period, became even more agitated.

He frowned, his voice deepening: "He said that someone in the league wants to protect Dashan, saying that since I, who assaulted someone, wasn't banned, there's no reason for Dashan to be banned."

Li Zhi's previously arrogant demeanor was instantly extinguished.

He raised his hand and patted Xie Jichuan's back, quietly trying to smooth things over:

"Well, that's the only way. After all, we really did hit someone, so we'll just have to swallow our anger."

After saying that, he couldn't help but ask curiously, "By the way, what exactly is the conflict between you and Dashan that makes him target us like this?"

Xie Jichuan scoffed, his tone filled with undisguised contempt:

"He used to play jungle. He joined Ashes two years ago, but he couldn't beat me and didn't get the starting position. He thought my dad was manipulating things behind the scenes."

"Back then, to show his resolve, he even switched to the Anti-Japanese Road."

Li Zhi: "...Is he out of his mind? Can't he see that he's less skilled than others?"

Xie Jichuan shrugged: "Yeah, maybe he's just trying to find an excuse for losing."

Li Zhi became indignant again, clenching her fists:

"I let him get away with it this time, but if he dares to discriminate against Omegas again, I'll record it and post it online."

Xie Jichuan's phone suddenly rang. As he looked down to check it, he casually remarked in praise:

"Not bad, a truly great Omega."

After saying that, he tapped the screen a few times, then suddenly chuckled enigmatically, and handed the phone to Li Zhi:

"No need to wait for next time. If you want to vent your anger, the opportunity is here now."

Li Zhi looked down and saw a private message from Da Shan to Xie Jichuan on the screen.

[DaShan]: I heard about the league's ruling. I was just telling the truth, and I'm being fined?

[Dashan]: If it weren't for your dad back then, the World Championship Finals MVP might not have been whoever it was.

[X]: What? Want to fight one-on-one?

【X】：Tomorrow at 2 PM, see you there! Anyone who doesn't show up is a dog.

[Dashan]: ...Okay.

Seeing Da Shan being forced to agree, Li Zhi blinked and a mischievous smile slowly crept onto her lips.

A one-on-one duel! Such an exciting event, how can we not livestream it to add to the fun?
