I was the leader of the righteous path in high school.

His face was cool and clean, with a natural aloofness in his eyes and brows, yet at this moment the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, as if he were looking at something interesting.

Su Nianshan.

Gu Yun's brain went blank for 0.3 seconds.

Shouldn't she be studying in the classroom at this time? No, this afternoon...

Oh my god.

We have a holiday this afternoon.

He had completely forgotten about it.

Su Nianshan clearly noticed his sudden change in expression. Without waiting for him to speak, she sat down on the empty chair next to him and put the plastic bag she was carrying on the table.

"Your mom asked me to bring you some fruit."

Her tone was as indifferent as if she were asking what to eat today: "Tell them you've been studying hard lately, so you should take some vitamins."

Gu Yun: "..."

Wang Ziyuan was completely petrified.

His mouth was agape, his eyes darting back and forth between Gu Yun and Su Nianshan, his expression as if he had seen a ghost.

Holy crap, Su Nianshan?

What is she doing here? How does she know Gu Yun? Why is she delivering fruit to Gu Yun? Why is she sitting next to him? She...she...

Wang Ziyuan's CPU is completely overloaded.

Gu Yun quickly composed himself, forcing a flawless smile onto his face: "Thank you. Please tell my mom not to worry, I'm perfectly fine."

Su Nianshan glanced at him, but didn't respond to the conversation. Her gaze fell on his black computer screen.

"You lost?"

"Uh... a strategic adjustment."

Su Nianshan didn't speak, but simply nodded slightly, her expression clearly saying, "I understand, that means I've lost."

Gu Yun felt his gaming dignity had been challenged, but before he could speak, Su Nianshan had already turned to him, her tone as casual as if she were saying, "The weather's nice today."

"I'll help you win it back?"

Gu Yun was taken aback.

Wang Ziyuan, standing next to him, opened his mouth even wider.

"You...you're taking us?" Gu Yun asked instinctively.

Su Nianshan didn't answer, but just looked at him with her clear and cold eyes, the meaning of which was very clear: What else?

Gu Yun thought for a moment.

Then he made a very rational decision.

He took out his phone from his pocket, opened the internet cafe's QR code login page, and handed it to Su Nianshan:

"Here, I'll drive you for two hours."

Since receiving the funds, he has become very generous with his money.

Su Nianshan glanced down at her phone screen, then looked up at him, raising an eyebrow slightly.

That raised eyebrow carried a hint of surprise, and also a half-smile.

She didn't say anything, took the phone, and scanned the QR code.

Wang Ziyuan watched this scene from the side, and he was completely dismayed.

He opened his mouth, then opened it again, finally managing to squeeze out a broken sentence from his throat:

"Gu...Gu Yun...you...you all..."

He couldn't continue, so he could only point at Su Nianshan with his finger, his expression as if he were pointing out some kind of miracle.

Gu Yun glanced at him, calmly taking the phone back from Su Nianshan:

"Oh, my sister."

Wang Ziyuan: "???"

"That mid laner who led you to victory last time was her."

Wang Ziyuan: "..."

Wang Ziyuan's eyes were wide open, like copper bells.

He looked at Su Nianshan's aloof and detached face, and then recalled the violent mid-laner who had dominated Summoner's Rift that day. The string in his mind finally snapped.

"That mid laner who dominated the entire game was...yes, yes, yes, yes..."

"Yes, it's me." Su Nianshan responded calmly, her gaze already fixed on the screen, her fingers casually tapping a couple of keys on the keyboard to test the feel.

Wang Ziyuan was completely speechless.

He slumped in his gaming chair, watching Su Nianshan skillfully open the game client and Gu Yun leisurely adjust the runes beside her, feeling like the sky had fallen.

The top student in the grade took him to an internet cafe?

As it turned out, the League of Legends game went quite well.

What's wrong with this world?

Gu Yun turned his head and saw his expression of existential doubt. He patted him on the shoulder, his tone carrying a hint of world-weariness:

"You'll get used to it. I was the same way at first."

"Sometimes being surpassed in every aspect is simply unacceptable."

"Get lost."

Su Nianshan ignored him, her fingers already flying across the keyboard.

As we all know, Hextech ARAM is a mode that features random heroes and random Hextech buffs.

In the first game, Su Nianshan got a Pantheon that wasn't her preferred champion, while the opponent got a Hextech champion that was a perfect fit, causing her team to suffer a series of defeats.

The screen went black.

Su Nianshan stared blankly at her black and white image, her lips pursed slightly.

"Bad luck," she commented briefly.

Gu Yun, suppressing a laugh, said, "Yeah, bad luck."

In the second game, Su Nianshan picked her most familiar champion, LeBlanc, clearly preparing to go on a killing spree.

However, the LeBlanc section in this mode is ruined. There are too many monsters in the Hextech gacha pool, including some that convert magic to physical attacks, turning LeBlanc into a basic attack-focused champion.

The enemy EZ picked Shadow Strike, and she was so impressed by his abilities that she questioned her existence.

The screen went black again.

Su Nianshan stared at the screen, her eyebrows twitching slightly.

"There's something wrong with this Hextech system."

Her tone remained calm, but Gu Yun detected a subtle hint of grievance in her voice.

Wang Ziyuan finally recovered from his shock and felt a strange sense of satisfaction seeing the top student in the grade suffer a defeat in the game.

He leaned closer and nodded earnestly:

"Yeah, yeah, yeah, this Hextech is all about luck. Last time I didn't get a good one in five games in a row, I was so angry I wanted to write a complaint letter to Riot."

Su Nianshan turned her head and glanced at him, her eyes seeming to say, "You understand this kind of pain too."

Encouraged, Wang Ziyuan continued to complain: "And you know what? The other side always manages to get the most suitable items. I suspect the system has mind-reading abilities and specifically picks out what you want most for the other side."

"Um."

Su Nianshan responded, unusually agreeing, "That EZ just now, the Hextech he farmed was a perfect counter to me."

Is it possible that you're just unlucky and don't know how to use Hextech? What's the logic behind LeBlanc picking a Sharpshooter Mage?

Before Gu Yun could even voice his complaint, Wang Ziyuan excitedly slapped his thigh: "Right? Right? I fared even worse last time!"

Okay, I've been interrupted again.

Gu Yun watched this scene from the side and felt that his worldview was a bit strange.

Wang Ziyuan, you were just questioning your life, and now you're exchanging game tips with the top student in your grade?

Human beings' ability to adapt is truly terrifying.

The third round has begun.

Su Nianshan got a Zed in the game this time. Her fingers paused when the Hextech spawned at the start.

"What's wrong?" Gu Yun leaned over to look.

The screen displayed three Hextech options: a slap, an escape plan, and... um?

Gu Yun rubbed his eyes.

"This third one... isn't it the same as the Ezreal you played earlier?"

"Shadow Strike".

Su Nianshan uttered the name of the Hextech, and a subtle change finally appeared in her tone: "Displacement can grant movement speed."

She paused for a moment, then ordered the Hextech.

"I'll give it a try too."

Wang Ziyuan chuckled from the side: "An eye for an eye, huh?"

Su Nianshan didn't speak, but the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.

Gu Yun felt that Su Nianshan only changed when she was playing games.

He looked down and saw the caller ID: Xia Qige.
