"You're the one talking too much. Fight if you can, roll out if you can't!"

Duan Yixing chuckled instead of getting angry. "Oho, someone's got a firecracker up their butt! Brother Yan is so fierce tonight, how would we dare roll out? We're just waiting for you to carry us to Star Glory, Brother Yan!"

"That's right, Brother Yan is performing way above his usual level tonight!" Lu Yanze chimed in.

"Jia Yan, where are Mom, Dad, and Big Brother?" Shen Anya cut into the conversation at this moment.

Shen Jiayan replied impatiently, "They went to the hospital."

"The hospital?" Shen Anya froze. "What's wrong with them? Why did they go to the hospital?"

Shen Jiayan had been fuming and feeling depressed as hell, but the moment he heard that, his anger instantly vanished. At the very least, he had managed to hear some news—even if he hadn't heard the whole thing—while Shen Anya had no idea what was going on at all.

Compared to that, he suddenly didn't feel quite so miserable.

With a rare display of good temper, he answered, "How would I know? Go ask them yourself."

The moment his voice fell, the sound of a car stopping came from outside.

"It's Mom and Dad back." Shen Anya's expression lit up as she hurried toward the door.

Shen Jiayan instinctively stood up and started to follow, but catching himself, he remembered he was still mad and plopped right back down on the sofa.

His eyes, however, very honestly looked toward the door.

"Mom, Dad, where did you guys go?" Her still-smiling face sank the moment she saw Shen Luoluo and Shen Jingyao walking in together.

Why was Shen Luoluo with Mom and Dad?!

Zhao Huizhen had tossed and turned all night and was feeling a bit tired. Not noticing the change in her expression, she casually replied, "Your eldest aunt had some trouble, so we took her to the hospital."

"What's wrong with the eldest aunt? What happened?" Unwilling to be left out, Shen Anya continued to press.

"Nothing major. Grown-ups' business, children don't need to worry about so much." This time it was Shen Ting'an who answered, shutting down the topic with a single sentence.

Shen Anya froze in place.

Figures, it was always the same line. Shen Jiayan speechlessly shrugged and shifted his attention back to his phone.

At the same time, Shen Luoluo's voice echoed in his head once more—

[Dead again? You're so trash.]

Shen Jiayan clenched his fists. He just hadn't been paying close attention at the start and accidentally died, he wasn't trash! He wasn't trash!!

Flesh could bear no more, patience could bear no more!

Shen Jiayan gritted his teeth and looked at Shen Luoluo. "Do you even know how to play?"

Shen Luoluo was just passing by and hadn't expected Shen Jiayan to talk to her. Taken aback for a moment, she instinctively replied, "I've played."

Shen Jiayan let out a cold laugh. She had played, which meant she knew how to play. As long as she knew how to play, that was enough. Today, he was going to let this girl see just who the trash really was!

Shen Luoluo had no idea which wire in her brain had short-circuited, but she actually agreed to play the game with Shen Jiayan.

After telling Duan Yixing and the others that he was bringing someone along, Shen Jiayan pulled Shen Luoluo into their party.

Duan Yixing didn't forget to tease him, "Brother Yan, carrying a girl again?"

Shen Jiayan: "Shut up and just play properly!"

Duan Yixing knew him well enough by now, immediately replying, "No problem, we'll definitely put on a good show!"

At first, Shen Jiayan was exceptionally gentlemanly, letting Shen Luoluo pick her most proficient hero first.

Ten minutes later, Shen Jiayan fell into a silence as he watched Shen Luoluo rack up over a dozen kills on her hero and rack up an MVP godlike record.

Refusing to believe it and figuring the rank was too low to match them against skilled opponents, he even borrowed Jiang Yiyue's account—which was also at the Star Glory tier—and dragged Shen Luoluo through two matches, only to be carried to victory by Shen Luoluo all over again.

By this final match, Shen Luoluo even secured a penta-kill record.

Even Duan Yixing and Lu Yanze couldn't help but marvel: this wasn't them carrying a girl at all, the girl was carrying them!

Shen Luoluo quit while she was ahead. She hadn't forgotten that she was still a second-year high school student with a pile of homework and test papers waiting for her to finish!

Seeing that she was about to leave, Shen Jiayan finally couldn't hold back, sticking his neck out and asking, "Do you play this game often?"

"I suppose so." Did playing it all the time before crossing over count? Of course, Shen Luoluo wasn't going to tell him that during the summer vacation after the college entrance exams, because people kept calling her trash, her stubborn refusal to lose had driven her to spend an entire summer working her way up from the lowest Bronze rank all the way to Glory King!

Once she left, Duan Yixing and Lu Yanze kept pressing.

[Underground Intelligence Bureau]

[Duan Yixing: Brother Yan, when did you meet such an awesome girl, and you didn't even tell us! If you'd pulled her in sooner, would we still be stuck in Star Glory right now? We'd have made it to King!]

[Lu Yanze: That's right! Brother Yan, stop staying silent, hurry up and spill—who exactly is this girl, do we know her?]

[Duan Yixing: Brother Yan, are you even reliable? If not, pass her contact info to me, I'll figure out a way to win her over!]

[Lu Yanze: If you're not up to it, there's still me and Yixing. Between the three of us, surely one of us will be to her liking!]

Shen Jiayan's temples throbbed wildly. What were these guys thinking?!

[Shen Jiayan: In your dreams! That's my sister!]

[Jiang Yi: Your sister? I remember Shen Anya doesn't play games. Could it be Shen Luoluo?]

[Shen Jiayan: It's her.]

[Duan Yixing: Holy shit, holy shit! Shen Jiayan, your sister is seriously a god. She's even this good at video games!]

[Duan Yixing: Do me a favor and ask her if she's still looking for a younger brother. I'm available!]

[Lu Yanze: Me too, me too! I'm available too!]

[Shen Jiayan: Piss off!]

After cursing them out, Shen Jiayan stared at his match record on his phone. He refused to believe it! How could he possibly be worse than Shen Luoluo? Tonight, he was going to reach King rank and make these people look at him with new respect!

Facts proved that King rank wasn't something you could reach just because you wanted to, and the consequence of staying up all night was that the next morning, he walked out the door sporting a pair of giant panda eyes.

Shen Luoluo came downstairs for breakfast. Seeing Shen Jiayan's two panda eyes and aggrieved expression, she couldn't help laughing out of bounds.

What is up with him? Did he go out last night to steal chickens and dogs and get beaten up for it?

Shen Jiayan had his face pressed against the table, nodding off into a half-sleep, in no mood at all to argue with her.

"Luoluo, come have your breakfast quickly, or you'll be late," Zhao Huizhen hurried to say.
