I Can Do It

Chapter 40

When Jian Rong heard that, he sunk into a deep silence.

A beat later, Ding-ge, who was sitting at the front, looked back and asked, "What are you guys talking about?"

"Nothing." Lu Boyuan hid his smile.

Ding-ge let out an "oh" before handing over his phone. "I'm watching HT's most recent match recording, take a look at this wave."

Only after Lu Boyuan put in his earbuds did Jian Rong recover, and he stiffly wrenched his head towards the window.

After standing in the wind and talking with that man earlier, his hands and face had still felt somewhat chilly upon getting in the car, but now they didn't feel cold at all anymore.

Although Jian Rong was still young, for better or worse he had floated through the internet for several years, so of course he knew... that men could date other men.

However, these were all things that he had seen on Weibo or in short videos, and what's more, he had only glanced at them briefly before skipping past. He never would've thought that he would be the one to receive a man's confession, which was why he hadn't been able to react in time.

Jian Rong watched as the skyscrapers continuously flew by the window, his heart beating extremely fast in the darkness of the car. He didn't even dare to move the arm that was touching Lu Boyuan's shoulder, staying tense from start to end.

Once they arrived at the entrance to the base, Xiao Bai glanced at him and asked, puzzled, "Didn't you think it was too much work to even put on your parka? How come now your mask is on too?"

Jian Rong's eyelashes were lowered, and his mask covered the majority of his face. "I suddenly felt cold."

After not really eating much the entire day, everyone had quite the appetite when it came time for midnight snacks—except for Jian Rong.

They sat on the living room carpet, treating the coffee table as a dining table. HT's latest match recording was playing on the television.

"HT's bot lane is getting along better and better." Yuan Qian praised.

"Isn't it just average? They aren't playing as well as they did in their former teams. But that's normal, when you change partners you have to work together for at least one or two seasons before you can really get along." Xiao Bai stopped halfway through peeling his shrimp to lean over and nudge Pine. "For example, me and P-baby."

Pine remained motionless and continued to watch the TV screen. "If you touch me with your dirty hand, I won't renew my contract next season."

Xiao Bai gave an "aiya" and was about to say something else when he sensed that there was an extremely intense gaze glued to him.

He turned his head and came face to face with Jian Rong, whose lips were pressed tightly together, eyebrows slightly furrowed. "...what? Your stomach hurts?"

Jian Rong stared at him for a while and couldn't help but ask, "What's your Ionia server ID again?"

"'P-Baby's Little Support' ah." Xiao Bai was furious. "You've played several dozen ranked games with me, but only now you're asking what my ID is?! Are you even speaking a human language!!"

Originally, Jian Rong hadn't given that ID much thought.

He paused. "I remember it, I just wanted to confirm it... why did you pick that ID?"

Xiao Bai's tone was natural. "I met someone called XX's Little Fairy before, and I thought it was pretty interesting so I ended up changing my ID. I also wanted P-baby to change his to Bai-Baby's Little ADC."
