Are we a couple? Hmm! Not yet.

Su Nuan was taken aback by his words.

"Huh? What do you mean?"

"What do you think?"

"!!!!"

Su Nuan wasn't good at handling these situations, but she wasn't stupid either. She immediately understood Manager Wu's meaning. It meant the two of them had made it.

Her original worries vanished at that moment.

They were replaced by pure joy. "If you have time, can we go now?"

"No rush, we need to eat until we're full before we have the energy to go."

"Okay!"

Su Nuan truly hadn't expected things to go so smoothly.

At this moment!

Her eyes sparkled.

Especially when she looked at Chen Yi, she felt he was radiant, so dazzling.

She was happy, that was for sure.

Chen Yi also let out a sigh of relief. It had gone much smoother than he'd imagined. At the same time, this indicated that Snake's need for players was more severe than they'd anticipated.

But because of this, it had given the two of them such a great opportunity.

Snake Club, League of Legends division.

The address was a villa area on the outskirts of Qingpu, Magic City. Although the location was quite remote, the surrounding facilities were very complete, whether it was the subway or hospitals.

Everything was available!

The reason for choosing this location was naturally because it was cheaper. Less money spent on accommodation meant more could be invested elsewhere. Since it was a holiday, there were hardly any people in the team.

But this wouldn't affect the situation later.

Tryouts!

It was essentially playing a five-man ranked game with a few people from Snake to see how the players' coordination was.

Online tryouts confirmed basic skill.

Offline tryouts determined compatibility.

Clearly, everything had gone exceptionally well!

If a passing grade was sixty points, then these two were a perfect hundred. This applied to both Chen Yi and Su Nuan, and it wasn't just one game, but several games like this.

They even managed to handle everything perfectly without communicating with the other three, all to better observe their basic abilities. At this point, Coach JUN even felt like clapping his hands in praise.

Never mind the support!

This ADC, in particular, didn't seem like a rookie at all. They played like a veteran with seven or eight years of experience.

It wasn't just them.

Even the players who were trialing with them were typing furiously after the tryouts ended.

[Flandre: Where did these two cheaters come from? They're too strong! If nothing unexpected happens, these will be our future teammates.]

[Sofm: Seems like it. I didn't expect ADCs to be so reliant on their team in this meta, yet they can still be this good?]

[Zz1tai: I admit this ADC has some skill, but the support isn't weak either. Coach... come out and talk. Where did you find them?]

Naturally, Jun ignored all of this. Rather than dealing with their idle chatter, It was better to focus on these two treasures.

Truly!

They had solved Snake's biggest problem. Seeing the two of them take off their headphones, Jun clapped his hands and said, "You performed exceptionally well. Your skills are more than enough to join Snake. Congratulations!"

Su Nuan's eyes lit up at his words.

Did it really happen?

How long had it been since she came to Magic City?

Three days!

In just three short days, she became a player?

This was too fast!

"Am I a player now?"

Chen Yi: "Yes! Congratulations on becoming the first female player in the LPL!"

"Yes!"

Saying this!

Su Nuan gave Chen Yi another big hug, and at that moment, she even felt an urge to kiss him.

But she held back.

A hug was enough between friends; nothing more.

When JUN saw this, he nodded in satisfaction. Manager Wu had said they were a couple, and this scene confirmed it.

Taken!

This would avoid a lot of trouble.

He then cleared his throat and said, "The contract is being drafted, but it will take some time. If you need anything, just tell me, for example... arranging a separate dormitory for the two of you."

"Huh?"

Su Nuan had been happy, but her body stiffened at his words. Noticing their movements, she immediately let go.

Her face instantly flushed red. She glanced at Chen Yi, then at JUN, and said somewhat awkwardly, "Uh... we're not that kind of couple."

"????"

"????"

They stared at each other, completely bewildered.

Manager Wu: "Are you sure?"

"Sure!"

"..."

Silence fell between them. After several seconds, JUN cleared his throat and said, "That doesn't change anything. Uh... Little Wu, you'll share a dorm with Su Nuan from now on. Chen Yi will be arranged elsewhere."

"Okay!"

Manager Wu nodded and led Su Nuan to see her dormitory.

A girl needs someone to look out for her! Chen Yi thought. Su Nuan wasn't one for airs and graces. On the way, Manager Wu asked the question.

"You really aren't a couple?"

"Really..."

"????"

Manager Wu couldn't quite understand. Such a compatible pair, weren't they already together?

It didn't make sense.

Finally, she asked again, "Really?"

"Really!"

After getting her answer, Manager Wu stopped asking and proceeded to show her the dorm. "One bed per person, there's a walk-in closet here, you can..."

Meanwhile, on the other side, JUN asked the same question as Manager Wu. Chen Yi's expression turned odd; he hadn't expected the coach to be so gossipy at his age.

"We're definitely not!"

"Is that so?"

"Well... not yet, probably."

Hearing this, JUN understood immediately. Perhaps they weren't a couple now, but that might change in the future.

It was normal for sparks to fly when a man and a woman spent time together.

Looking at Chen Yi, JUN was reminded of himself. He used to be like this too, enjoying the process of chasing someone they grew close to. Now, he was a father of two.

He patted Chen Yi on the shoulder and said, "I've got high hopes for you. Come on! I'll show you to your dorm!"

"Okay!"

Snake's treatment was probably top-tier in the LPL, as evidenced by the dorms.

The first floor was the common area.

Cafeteria, gym, recreation room, infirmary.

And so on!

All on the first floor.

The second floor was for training. Conference room, training hall, offices. The space might not be huge, but it was well-equipped. Finally, the third floor.

This was the living area!

For the players!

And the support staff!

They're basically all here.

Except for a few individuals, it's generally two players per room. It sounds normal for a team, but once inside, it's completely different.

Bunk beds?

No!

Two single beds?

No!

They were two European-style king-sized beds, big enough to sleep three or four people.

Besides that, there was a walk-in closet, a separate toilet, and a bathroom with a distinct wet and dry area. It was exactly like a luxury hotel suite. Thinking back to the RNG dorms in his previous life...

He felt like they were no different from a pigsty.

After a general look around, Jun spoke, "The setup is decent, but if you want to stream or play games, you'll still need to go to the main hall. If you need anything, feel free to ask, and we'll do our best to accommodate."

"Okay!"

Jun continued, "And the person you'll be rooming with is Krystal, also known as Crystal Brother. He's still recuperating right now. I'll introduce you once he arrives. Next, let's go take a look at other places."

Soon!

The day passed.

Before they even left, they even arranged a thoughtful dinner for the two of them with the cafeteria auntie. So when they came out, Su Nuan was completely dazed.

And she was like this.

Chen Yi was the same. Perhaps he had competed in his previous life and had some contact with Snake, but experiencing this kind of treatment firsthand still felt somewhat surreal.

Especially when the cafeteria auntie asked if they preferred Korean or Western food, or Sichuan or Hunan cuisine.

She could make them all!

Thinking about RNG in his previous life, perhaps this was the difference.

Chen Yi then cleared his throat and said, "Should we just walk back? To help digest our food."

"Okay!"

They had eaten a bit too much today.

A walk would be good.

The two walked on the sidewalk, not side-by-side, but one behind the other. Su Nuan was in front, and Chen Yi followed behind. They walked like this for a long time.

They didn't speak!

Finally, Su Nuan spoke, "Honestly! When I first said I wanted to go pro, I was prepared for it to take time, but I didn't expect it to happen so quickly. It's all thanks to you. How should I thank you!"

Hearing this, Chen Yi pondered for a few seconds and said, "How about you pledge yourself to me? I'll be the one taking a loss."

"You..."

Su Nuan was slightly taken aback.

Then she burst out laughing. "Dream on! Let's go, it's getting dark."

In her opinion, this was indeed a joke.

But for Chen Yi, it was a genuine thought.

However, he wasn't in a hurry.

He followed her, "Let's go! Home!"

"That's your home, I'm staying at a hotel."

"Why stay at a hotel? Once we get to Snake, we'll be in the dorms. It's only a matter of a day or two. Are you sure you want to spend money unnecessarily?"

"This... that would be too much trouble."

"Okay!"

Chen Yi smiled slightly, willing to let her stay as long as she wanted.

Preferably forever.

And so!

Under the moonlight, the two walked forward step by step, getting closer and closer.

To home!

Or perhaps... to each other.
