The eSports King’s Crush

Panda Novel

“Little Brother, I searched for you for a long time earlier. Come home with me. Brother is coming too, and my mom is at home. She said I must bring you back to thank you properly this time,” Little Lin said while grabbing Mo Bei’s hand and gazing at Mo Bei pitifully. “If I don’t bring you back, mommy definitely won’t let me come look for Brother alone next time.”

Given Mo Bei’s personality, she found it very difficult to reject children, especially this kind, who liked to act cute. Mo Bei felt even more hesitant.

​

Little Lin lowered his head. Even his ears were slouchy, as if he already knew Mo Bei’s answer. “Alright, if Little Brother does not want to go, I won’t force him too. However, if there was someone as reliable as Little Brother around, mommy would definitely allow me to visit more places. I really like playing games too, but mommy’s worried, so I have not even been to the battle team’s apartment.”

At this point, Little Lin even tugged on the hem of her shirt.

Feng Nai watched from the side. His brow lifted for a moment before he bent down and lifted the little human. His voice was very languid as he said, “Trouble Lin, don’t pretend to be pathetic. This trick is of no use. Say goodbye to your Little Brother.”

Little Lin ignored his brother completely, his small face looking extremely desolate. He took a glance at Mo Bei, then another one. In the end, even his thick lashes drooped halfway.

Upon seeing that, Mo Bei reached out and stopped him, saying only a few words with an aloof profile. “I’ll go with you.”

Feng Nai’s eyes involuntarily narrowed. “You sure?”

The warning in his words was strong.

Mo Bei stood with a hand in her pocket, her eyes slightly dull. “A meal is nothing.”

“Do as you like.” Feng Nai straightened his collar and then boarded the van first.

He was intending to return to the battle team.

After what had just happened in the field, he did not want to have dinner with anyone for now.

However, how could Little Lin possibly let his brother go? He just needed to ask his mom to deal with his brother.

Hence, just like that, Feng Nai was summoned to the vehicle with a phone call.

Fortunately, Feng Nai and Mo Bei had not gotten in the vehicle together.

If the students around had seen them get in together, a mighty uproar would certainly have been caused.

Nevertheless, Zhao Jianjian and You Muqing felt that they’d found out too much today and needed to properly digest everything.

Especially You Muqing. After all, not too long ago, Feng Nai had mentioned that Little Lin seemed to have met a pretty nice person and he wanted to go meet him.

Now it seemed that he had. Except… he reckoned that Feng Nai had not expected that this pretty nice person would be his biggest eyesore.

You Muqing stretched a hand out and pressed down the spot between his brows when the students from No.1 Middle School came running. They had rods in their hands and they were panting hard. “Young Master You.”

“Why are you guys here?” You Muqing put his hand down.

“Someone said that rascal Mo Nan was here, so we came to corner him!” As they spoke, the eyes of the people from No.1 Middle School landed on Zhao Jianjian. “Sure enough, even his sidekick is here.”

Zhao Jianjian stiffened. He suddenly thought, “Oh shit, Little Lin left. Who will protect me?”

Then, he heard You Muqing’s voice. “Let him go.”

The students from No.1 Middle School had already surrounded Zhao Jianjian. Upon hearing that, they all looked ludicrous.

After all, this was their old enemy.

You Muqing could only force out an excuse. “Today is a solo fight. The arranged fight will take place another day.”

Zhao Jianjian, who was now off the hook, gave him a thumbs-up while no one was looking.

He was very lucky to survive.

“Yes, how did I forget that? Young Master Feng ordered us not to come over. He wanted to teach Mo Nan a lesson himself.” The person speaking recalled before looking up. “The lesson must have ended by now. I wondered how it went.”

“Come on, Young Master Feng definitely won. Is that right, President You?”

You Muqing smiled and said nothing.

He better not go into detail and say that both of them had gotten injured and hugged each other.

He had to go back and think over what to do when the people from No.1 Middle School saw Mo Nan in the future.

In the past, they would have come to blows, no matter what.

However, the duo’s relationship was rather complicated now. They still found each other an eyesore, yet they had to pretend to be deadly foes who had become good brothers.

Besides, the two of them still had to have dinner at the Fengs in a while.

He found the chief’s world increasingly difficult to understand.

At present, the atmosphere in the car was overall slightly odd.

Mo Bei and Feng Nai both supported their chins with a hand as they looked out of their respective windows.

The only difference was that Mo Bei would check her phone occasionally, while Feng Nai played with the silver cigarette case in his hand.

They did not interact at all throughout the entire journey.

Actually, it seemed that they did not even spare each other a glance for some reason.

Little Lin, who was seated between the two of them, turned to look at one of them and then turned the other way to look at the other one. His small brows were furrowed as his hands propped his chin. “It’s so odd. Little Brother, why aren’t you and brother talking? Don’t close friends have endless things to say when they are together? I have lots to say when I see Little Brother.”

Close?

The assistant in charge of driving choked silently.

After all, these two people had alighted separately when they had come to school that day, as if silently saying, “Even though I do know you, you better not mention that you know me.”

They really didn’t seem to be close.

Ever since they had met, little young master had never understood exactly what kind of relationship young master and Mo Nan shared.

“I’m laconic. That has always been the case.” Mo Bei’s voice was slightly cold, but the words she said were convincing.

Little Lin recalled that his Little Brother was indeed really cool when he played games. No matter how lousily his teammates played, he’d never say anything. He would just very coolly carry them to victory, either by wiping the opposing team out or stealing turrets to take down their base.

However, he still felt that something was odd, so he looked at his brother.

Feng Nai absent-mindedly sneered at him. “Did you think we’re like the little kids at your kindergarten? That we must talk a lot because we’re on good terms?”

Little Lin ignored his brother’s taunting words. He knew his brother. Once he got a wound on his face, he would become snarky.

“Ah, the injury.” Little Lin bowed his head and dug around for a while. “I still have some band-aids that you left behind the previous time. Great, there are four left.”

As he spoke, Little Lin raised his hands. His eyes were big, as though he was asking to be praised. “Brother, help Little Brother put a band-aid on his face and the back of his neck. Those two spots are a little obvious. Put one on your own face too. If you can’t reach the spot, get Little Brother to help you so that mommy will not deduct your allowance when she sees them. Didn’t I come up with a great idea?”
