There was laughter and laughter in the training room of the ig club.
Li Nian and Rookie's strong double queue achieved 4 consecutive victories, and the ID number '9527' rushed to the seventh place on the top of the canyon.
"Okay, brothers, that's it for today's live broadcast. I guess the next time I see you is when the World Championship is over."
Li Nian waved goodbye to the friends in the live broadcast room.
"Brother Zuizi, don't leave! I haven't seen enough yet!"
"Wow, wow, in just three hours of live broadcast, I have fallen in love with Brother Zuizi!"
"Come on Xiaoig, I also hope to see Brother Zuizi in the World Championships."
"Zui Bao, my Zui Bao!"
...
The popularity of the live broadcast room finally stayed at 500,000+, and Li Nian was very satisfied with it.
According to the popularity rating of the Panda platform, his popularity today is comparable to that of the platform's mid-level anchors.
At the same time, Rookie also turned off the live broadcast, stood up and walked towards Li Nian's position.
"Xiaoyu asked me to go out to eat, I'll leave first." Rookie said.
Li Nian turned his gaming chair and looked back at Rookie in surprise, exclaiming, "Song Yijin, have you confirmed your relationship with Xiaoyu?"
"Not yet..." Rookie blushed, "I haven't confessed my love to him yet, so we can consider him a friend."
"Tsk, it turns out that your relationship started so early..."
Li Nian clicked his tongue twice, recalling the memory of the two of them in his previous life.
Rookie and Xiaoyu, the golden couple in the e-sports circle, seemed to be officially announced after s8ig won the championship.
I just didn't expect that since the two of them had been secretly in love for a year...
It’s no wonder Rookie’s Chinese is getting better and better, and she even started to actively lose weight. The power of love is indeed great.
"Yes, Xiaoyu and I have known each other for a long time..." Rookie smiled.
Before Li Nian could speak, there was a loud banging sound from the other side of the training room, and the two of them looked over at the same time.
"Jack, are you okay?" Li Nian asked.
"It's okay... I stood up suddenly. This gaming chair is too heavy. Oops, my waist..."
Jack stumbled up to the two of them and said, "I bear witness! They take me with them every time they eat!"
Rookie looked at Jack worriedly and reached out to touch his big head.
"I can't take you with me today. Xiaoyu and I have important things to do. It's not convenient for you to be here..."
The smile on Jack's face disappeared instantly, and he muttered and looked at Rookie.
"What's...more important than taking me to dinner?"
Seeing Rookie's troubled face, Li Nian pulled Jack to his side.
"Don't disturb him today. How about... I take you to dinner?"
Jack tilted his head and looked at Li Nian, thought for a moment and then nodded.
Since someone invites you to dinner, whoever invites you is not a treat, and whoever treats you is not a treat!
Moreover, there is a risk of being fed dog food when eating with Rookie, so it is safer to go with Li Nian.
"Okay, Brother Yijin!"
"I hope you can bring back good news. Xiaoyu is actually quite good as a sister-in-law."
Jack smiled again, smiling crookedly.
After Rookie left, Li Nian and Jack also left the club one after another.
.....
The ig base is located in the bustling area of Shanghai and is also a gathering place for white-collar office workers.
Most of the so-called restaurants downstairs in the base are mainly fast food, and the taste is similar.
The two of them walked around but couldn't find anything delicious. The only thing they could eat was KFC.
"I know a Sichuan restaurant. It tastes pretty good. Why don't you try it?" Jack suggested.
Li Nian nodded. He is from Sichuan Province and naturally has no objection to Sichuan cuisine. Moreover, he has not tasted authentic Sichuan cuisine in Shanghai after returning to China for so long.
It was during the evening rush hour and there was no way to get a taxi, so the two simply chose to take the subway.
The Sichuan Restaurant is located near the university town, and it is also the day when students are taking their summer vacation. Since most of the people around are students and there are many people playing league games, a small incident happened between the two of them on the way to the Sichuan Restaurant——
Some fans recognized Li Nian and asked for a photo.
"Not bad, Brother Nian, you are famous now."
Jack pursed his lips at the back of the fan as he left.
"Be low-key, be low-key."
Li Nian said he was low-key, but his tone did not mean to be low-key at all.
The two were walking side by side on the street. The tall Li Nian stood beside Jack, looking like an older brother taking his silly younger brother out to play.
Jack didn't pay attention to these details. He walked through several alleys with ease, and finally took Li Nian to the door of a restaurant called 'Spicy Sichuan Restaurant'.
The restaurant is not big and the location is relatively remote. It is a type of restaurant.
"This is a restaurant owned by my second uncle's family. I have been eating here often since I came to Shanghai." Jack said while waving.
"No wonder you are so familiar..." Li Nian smiled.
"Wen Bo is here again! You haven't given me the money for the last meal yet!" The bald man at the door frowned and shouted.
"Next time I'll definitely be my second uncle!"
"This time I brought my friend to taste your craftsmanship, and I was so impressed. Remember to show off your special skills!"
Jack walked to his second uncle and stretched out his hand...
Li Nian, who planned to take a photo as a souvenir, took half a step back, but happened to see Jack making a strange move.
The consciousness of being a jungler all year round made him feel that something good was happening, so he instantly switched from taking pictures to recording mode, and successfully completed the gank on Jack.
Jack's original intention was to put his arm around his second uncle's shoulders to deepen the uncle-nephew relationship, but unfortunately he seriously underestimated his second uncle's burly figure!
This also resulted in the size difference between the two being too large. Jack's stretched out hand could only reach his second uncle's back.
Originally, it would be fine if he took his hand back, but Jack was stunned and patted his second uncle on the back.
His second uncle turned around and looked at Jack in confusion, his expression seemed to be asking him what he was doing.
Jack was so embarrassed that he coughed twice and quickly retracted his hand, his fair cheeks turning red instantly.
"Second uncle, you should lose weight. I remember I was able to hold you in my arms last time!" Jack said with a guilty conscience.
After hearing this, the second uncle immediately lowered his face, rolled his eyes, and pretended to be angry.
"Your second aunt didn't even ask me to lose weight, but you still take care of me! No matter how big or small you are!"
"That's what it is..."
Jack made a face and hurried into the restaurant, as if he was afraid that his second uncle would beat him if he continued talking.
"This kid..." The second uncle shook his head and continued washing the dishes.
Li Nian watched the whole process, holding back his laughter, and silently saved the video.
"It's better to eat the same thing! You can get whatever you want to drink yourself. It's all in the freezer."
The second uncle shouted towards the restaurant and nodded as a greeting after seeing Li Nian.
"Brother Nian, what do you want to drink? I'll get it for you." Jack asked.
"Bring me a can of Coke. I want it iced."
The two of them found an empty seat and sat down. Not long after, the second uncle brought the hot meal.
"Ma Po Tofu, twice-cooked pork, and your favorite lotus root soup!" The second uncle pulled out a chair and sat next to Jack.
The three delicious dishes on the table made Li Nian twitch his fingers. Even before he moved his chopsticks, just looking at them made him start to swallow.
"Brother Nian, try it quickly. This is my second uncle's specialty!" Jack quickly recommended.
Li Nian nodded and took a spoonful of Mapo Tofu.
Before he even took it into his mouth, the tangy aroma made him want to eat it.
After you take it into your mouth, the fragrant, numbing, spicy and hot flavor of Mapo Tofu explodes in your mouth.
After chewing twice, Li Nian was amazed by the clearly defined beef cubes and tender tofu.
Li Nian has lived for nineteen years, but even in Chengdu, Tianfu, he has never been able to eat such authentic Mapo Tofu!
In the expectant eyes of Jack and his second uncle, Li Nian gave a thumbs up.
"Second uncle, this is the best Mapo tofu I have ever eaten in my life!"
"As long as it tastes good," the second uncle said with a smile.
"You can try something else. The lotus roots for this lotus root soup are specially brought here from my hometown of Honghu. The soup is perfect!"
Li Nian nodded and picked up a piece of twice-cooked pork.
The pork belly slices are sliced very thin, with just the right ratio of lean to fat. The edges of the pork slices are slightly charred, and the aroma of bean paste fills your nostrils.
The meat slices in the mouth are fat but not greasy, the fragrance of garlic leaves, and the sourness of black beans are mixed together to make your taste buds explode instantly.
Unable to help himself, Li Nian showed an intoxicated expression as he picked up another piece of meat and paired it with rice.
Everything is just right!
After grinding two mouthfuls of rice, Li Nian filled a bowl of steaming lotus root soup. The lotus root was pink and broke into pieces when poked with a spoon. It was obvious that it had been simmered for a long time and the soup base was slightly thicker.
Li Nian couldn't wait to try it. Although it was a little hot, it did not affect the aroma at all. He chewed the lotus root pieces in the soup twice, and a warm feeling rose in his stomach after taking it!
One word! Absolutely!
The taste of this restaurant is so delicious that it will make you cry. The combination of two dishes and one soup is simply perfect...
"I feel it would be a pity not to be a chef in a five-star hotel because of my uncle's skills." Jack's mouth was so full of oil that he could hardly contain it.
"Old man, I don't have much energy anymore. Now I just want to save some money for your cousin to get a wife." The second uncle shook his head and said.
"Cousin, is he still in Huanggang?"
"That bastard started a small business at home and could barely make ends meet."
"We have guests here, so I won't talk to you two anymore. Eat more. If you don't have enough, call me."
Li Nian was immersed in eating and didn't even know that his second uncle had left the table.
The delicious food made Li Nian finish two bowls of dry rice.
Jack's mobile phone sent an app reminder message, and Xiaopo Station pushed a topic for him.
"Lol anchor Brother Ba's personality collapsed, Fly and Rookie tore off his last fig leaf"
