KOO’s official account on INS has updated a series of messages today.
Article 1: [KOO tigers officially changed its name to ROX tigers! In the new season, we will go all out]
Article 2: [Welcome jungler Han Wanghu, ID, Peanut, to officially join ROX tigers! 】
Article 3: [Homemade hot pot by new members Chef Peanut and Handyman. 】
The news was quickly forwarded to domestic Tieba and Weibo.
Everyone laughs at Chen Tianxiang, but in fact they are all very concerned about this Chinese player who is the first to join an LCK team.
In particular, it is a super first-line team that is ranked second in the world.
But it benefits from careful abstraction operations.
At this moment, the comments are overwhelming.
[Haha, it’s so hard to break down! I really used to cook! 】
[No way, you don’t really expect brother Xiangzi to win the game at KOO, right? Oh, it’s called ROX now. 】
[Xiangzi, it’s really difficult to collapse. We are all hard-working people who have to work hard, right? 】
[However, I feel that ROX has become weaker. There is a new jungler, and Brother Xiangzi can be ignored. 】
[I don’t know what Xiangzi wants to do. He goes to work as a handyman for the Korean team. He might as well be an anchor. I feel that he is talented in live broadcasting. 】
[This is rare. 】
[Awkward, I heard that he seems to want to go to LPL, but the main reason is that LPL has no team and no shortage of cooking ladies! Ha ha! 】
There was a cheerful atmosphere in the comments section.
But EDG doesn't.
After finishing the review, Ming Kai logged into his Tieba account with the ID of Ming Lian.
I saw everyone laughing and mocking Chen Tianxiang because no one wanted him.
He couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
What the hell is RNG so crazy about? How can we do without such a person?
The "cooker" who was everyone's joke, beat himself up until he was dizzy after a long time.
And the talented newcomer known as the little faker clearly knows how to handle the laning.
This means that there is a sweeper monk in Tianlong Babu, and there is a cook in his ROX base?
"Eh." Ming Kai sighed again.
Thinking of the young man who claims to be his fan, roaming freely in his wild area, I guess he will have trouble sleeping tonight.
At this moment, inside ROX's base.
After Chen Tianxiang tidied up his room.
He's the only one tonight, and Peanut won't pack his things until tomorrow.
A phone call came in.
Chen Tianxiang glanced at the note.
Qiao Xiaoxi.
After a pause, he recalled in his mind the figure who had grown up with him since childhood.
Their parents have been friends for many years, and they live not far from each other.
Childhood sweethearts, childhood sweethearts, that's probably what it's like.
How did the previous life gradually drift away without realizing it?
"Hello? Is this the host Chen Tianxiang?" came a deliberately artificial voice from the other side.
"Yes, are you my fan?" Chen Tianxiang raised the corners of his mouth, and couldn't help but feel that he was deliberately acting mean and nostalgic.
"Stop being so pretentious, I haven't watched a minute of your live broadcast. I'm not like you, who just play games all day long. I can't even understand what you're playing. It's so boring."
Qiao Xiaoxi lay on the bed in the bedroom, put the phone to her ear, and shook her slender legs up and down rhythmically while talking.
"I'm so handsome, you can't help but look at my face."
Chen Tianxiang lay on his back on the bed, looking at the slowly falling snow outside the window.
"Stop! Narcissist." Qiao Xiaoxi stuck out her tongue at the phone. "Did you really drop out of school?"
"I am taking a break from school. I will go back to school when I have time in the future." Chen Tianxiang explained.
"Then...will you come back during the New Year?"
At this moment, Qiao Xi's legs no longer shook. She turned sideways, hugged the stuffed bear on the bed tightly, curled up slightly, and kept rubbing the bow tie in front of the bear's neck with her fingers.
If Chen Tianxiang had made a video call to her, he would definitely laugh at her, because he knew that this was something she always rubbed when she was nervous.
"It shouldn't happen this year. Why, do you still miss me?"
"Bah, I was thinking about how you lost a bet with me last time and owed me several meals." Qiao Xiaoxi pouted, "Why, are Korean sisters so good-looking? I can't even get you back." ”
With this said, Chen Tianxiang gradually discovered the reason why the two of them were drifting apart.
From the time he went to South Korea to 2023, his father fell ill and he never returned home once.
A full six years.
At first, there were still calls and QQ calls.
But she goes to bed early and gets up early, while he reverses day and night. She studies peacefully while he goes to the bar and plays cards.
The two gradually entered two completely different worlds.
The avatar that used to always pop up in the chat list gradually became a simple greeting during the holidays and nothing else.
He also found many girlfriends.
Chen Tianxiang recalled that when he was hanging out in bars and nightclubs, he found girlfriends whose emotional experiences were more complex than electrical circuits.
They all dye their hair in various ways, wear heavy makeup, and are incredibly sexy.
Although Chen Tianxiang gradually couldn't even remember the difference in appearance between his ex-girlfriends.
But he still knew clearly that they must be two completely parallel worlds to the good girl on the other side of the phone.
As for her, Chen Tianxiang had never heard of her having a boyfriend.
I just remember that my mother said that she always visited her father and enthusiastically taught her sister her homework...
"It's all artificial and boring. It doesn't feel fresh after watching it for a long time. It's not as good as you." Chen Tianxiang said.
"Huh, okay, stop flattering me, your tricks are of no use to me." Qiao Xiaoxi said, but her legs tightly clamped the teddy bear, and the corners of her mouth raised slightly.
"You talk so beautifully, how long have you not contacted me?"
Listening to the complaints over there, Chen Tianxiang laughed. How come he didn't notice her attitude towards him at all before?
"International phone calls are very expensive, so you have to save some money."
"Ah? Can you make up a worse reason?" An angry question came from the other side. "Young Master Tianxiang is already diligent and frugal in running the family? Then you might as well believe that I am Qin Shihuang."
"The real thing, the real thing." Chen Tianxiang said, "I am pursuing my dream now. Wouldn't it be too shameful to ask my family for money while pursuing my dream? To tell you the truth, I was living in the basement a few days ago. "
"Really?" Qiao Xiaoxi was a little suspicious, "Well, if that's the case, it's a good thing. You, a playboy, have finally grown up and become sensible! Sister, I'm very happy!"
"You are two months younger than me, right?"
"Age aside, I am recognized by your parents and your sister as being more obedient and mature than you." Qiao Xiaoxi sat up and patted her chest confidently.
Chen Tianxiang thought of his previous life's bad behavior, which made Mr. Kang shake his head when he saw it. He really had no room to refute.
"Let me ask you a question." Chen Tianxiang asked, "What if, one day, my so-called dream pursuit fails, and I show up to you with my hair dyed yellow, tattoos on my arms, a cigarette in my mouth, and penniless. Will you be disappointed in front of me?"
"Ah? What's the problem, are you scared now?" Qiao Xiaoxi asked.
Chen Tianxiang did not answer.
Qiao Xiaoxi paused and replied, "I will definitely be very disappointed! I know you like to be rebellious, but do you really think tattoos are cool? Your dad will beat you to death, right?"
"Um."
Chen Tianxiang nodded, and it was natural to be disappointed.
"So, don't let me down. If you fail, I will laugh at you for the rest of your life."
"How mean!"
"Humph, this is me motivating you!" Qiao Xiaoxi said. "When doing something, instead of worrying about failure, it is better to go all out first. When the time comes, if you beg me, my sister will still let you into my house and have a bowl of porridge. Oh, the prerequisite is that you are not allowed to smoke! I dislike!"
"Okay, okay, I have learned Teacher Qiao's principle." Chen Tianxiang nodded. "Wait until I return in triumph, and then please spend a lot of money!"
"Come on, first pay back what you owe me for the bet, and then just draw cakes for me all day long. Are you a teacher selling postgraduate entrance examination courses?"
"Haha, when the time comes, it will be clean even with capital and interest." Chen Tianxiang replied. Only now did he know who the people who deserve to be cherished should be.
"What's the scenery like over there in South Korea now? Is there a moon?"
Qiao Xi looked up at the bright moon in the sky.
I couldn't help but think of Natsume Soseki comparing liking you to the romance of a beautiful moonlight.
"No, it's snowing heavily here."
"Eh~ Snow? I haven't seen heavy snow in a long time! I'm so envious!" Qiao Xiaoxi said. "It's like writing on the snow like in the TV series. It's really cool."
As a lover of literature and art, she couldn't help but think of the beautiful snow scene under Shunji Iwai's shaky lens.
"So, if you want to see snow, why don't you go to a school in the north or stay in Chongqing?"
"Because... I don't want to be too far away from home! Okay, I'm going to bed! I have to go back to school tomorrow, it's eight in the morning!"
"Well, I still need to clean the room."
"Are you really a handyman? Okay, it's time to go to bed, bye!"
"Bye-Bye."
After the two said goodbye, they hung up the phone.
Qiao Xiaoxi looked at the call ended sign on her phone and muttered to herself.
"What if you go home by chance and I'm not in Chongqing, I won't be able to see you?"
Qiao Xiaoxi couldn't help but open Weibo and refresh the news about ROX.
Suddenly, the message flashed.
The note is, the guy named Bastard Chen sent a photo.
It was a snowfield.
There is a handwriting written on it.
[Written to Miss Qiao. 】
Then leave a message.
[That’s awesome. You never watch my live broadcast, but you know my game ID. Can you tell me my fortune? Master Qiao. 】
Broken, exposed.
"Ahhhh!" Qiao Xiaoxi fell on the bed and buried her hot face in the plush of the stuffed bear, rubbing it crazily. Her legs seemed to be in a fatal rhythm, beating the bed excitedly.
After a while, whether because she was afraid that the bed's durability had reached its bottom or because she was a little tired, she finally stopped.
He took out his phone, raised his face to look at it, and silently set the photo as his wallpaper.
"Really, I don't know how to write a more romantic sentence."
Chen Tianxiang looked at the reply message on his phone and smiled knowingly.
Qiao Xiaoxi: [Haha, you are so sentimental. 】
