Chapter 9

Tong Nian was arranged to sit in the first row of bus. Still ignorant and slow, she did not know why she must go to the victory celebration.

Sitting in the car was the captain, and other gaming teams or possibly two teams, and reserve players. While waiting for the bus to start, the main and bench members of Chamber Storm, one after another got on. Several people carrying backpacks, because their builds are too tall, they all lowered their heads, evading the surprise bus door’s attack. Then one by one, they pa.s.sed by her side.

“h.e.l.lo sister-in-law.”

“h.e.l.lo sister-in-law.”

“h.e.l.lo sister-in-law.”

“Sister-in-law, it’s my first time meeting you, please take care of me ha.”

Tong Nian awkwardly smiles yet not really, and not smiling yet not really. The curvature of her mouth throughout remained in a strange arc. Finally, only one guy wearing a baseball cap did not speak. He pa.s.sed by, and his footsteps pause for a moment. Silently he nods his head toward her in greeting. Then, the boy sits behind Tong Nian.

The driver asked him: “What time will your Leader get on the bus?”

The boy was silent for a few seconds: “Wait for a bit more.”

Thus, everyone from all angles of the bus peeps at this Moe sister-in-law who fell down from the sky.

*Note: Fell down from the sky – This phrase is an idiom meaning that Tong Nian came out of nowhere. This could also mean she’s drop-dead gorgeous because in Chinese folklores G.o.ddesses who come from the heavens (the sky) are often described as outrageously beautiful.

Tong Nian has never been so nervous.  Even performing on the stage for first time, she was not this nervous. She sat up straight, not daring to make any sudden movements, lest give the club’s people a bad impression.

She clearly hears from behind, the one who helped her get her luggage in a low voice asks: “Eh? D, when did your brother find a girlfriend? Doesn’t he stay at the club for 24 hours?

“Don’t know,” D clearly not interested in pondering.

“Secretly crossing the Wei River? Leader (Laoda) still trying to play this case? He is scared that we will all follow him and date, and interfere with the compet.i.tion?”

*refers to a strategy used by Liu Bang. To feign one thing while doing another.

After a brief silence, D answers: “The leader is not small* anymore, isn’t falling in love a normal necessity?”

*Note: In Chinese, it sounds much more fluid in meaning that he is already an adult now so it makes more sense for him to have a relationship. This is not supposed to give the meaning that he is too old. I just realized after reading a bit more it could be a euphemism (subst.i.tution for offensive expression) for saying a certain private part needs certain s.e.xual needs (just stating it mildly already).

These words……are very easy to misunderstand. The many layers of meaning ah……behind him, each of the big handsome brothers took the hint, secretly with ulterior motive, they laughed.

Once she heard these word through her ears, she was furious at once.

Where is Leader not small……

Obviously he is super handsome. Compared to these feathered headed boys, he’s manlier……

As a result in the end, the team leader simply informs the driver, that he himself may return late to the hotel. Thus he let the other team leader lead the people to go back first. Tong Nian seeing her in a graceful stature, even wearing sportswear has a kind of unique quality of female leader. She listens to her transferring people to follow all the time arrangements methodically, and suddenly felt, herself and her in comparison is simply……

She lowered her head, looking at her short skirt and white-eared stockings……Just look like a kid…

The bus with everyone on it, drove out from the stadium. From the window, she saw the number of boys and girls who were very excited to see this bus. There are some people pointing and calling the people inside the bus.  Such a scene, on the contrary actually looks very much like some of their famous internet singers, C and writers the same, always admired by the fans.

Playing games can also be played so realistically in life so eye catching, why did I not pay attention to it previously?

Tong Nian silently regretted the next moment.  She started to perk up her ears to listen to the people chattering within the bus. Wanting to understand more about the circle in his life, but…… why do I not completely understand ah T.T……

So in this way with all kinds of activity in the brain, she felt a bit disturbed. Under his personal care from the bus up to the hotel, and lastly her luggage was also placed in his room by these people……empty-handed, holding a cell phone, sitting in the hotel’s restaurant, she still hasn’t seen his shadow.

“Everybody, Leader made a call, to let us eat first.  He salutes everybody with wine first, this past month playing four exhibition games, was very hard.

The team leader finished speaking, came over, stooped down to the waist to whisper in Tong Nian’s ear saying: “Come, I’ll take you to a place.”

Tong Nian who was distracted, very quickly flushed hotly, and nods.  She picks up her pace setting out to keep up.

All the men behind her had a “Leader lost his mind because of s.e.xual pa.s.sion, to abandon his colleagues” bitter expression. They were immersed in the terrible gossip, and had completely forgetting that today, there was a fellow teammate who had stomach internal bleeding, the proper matter that needed everybody to show loving care for.

The female team leader brought Tong Nian to the 12 floor executive suite door.

How come……we arrived at the hotel room? Tong Nian quietly looked all around.

The team leader knocked on the door.

Footstep sounds, from far to near.

With a flipping sound, opened the door, one hand holding the door frame, looked at the female team leader, and also lowered his head to look at only to his chest height Tong Nian: “Come in.”

……

All around is quiet.

Tong Nian’s eyes aimed looking at the female team leader, also aimed looking at his chin……

Really……do I have to enter the room……

“Some matters can’t……at, the restaurant say……” She felt a bit wrong.

Eyes flashing impatience: “Private matter, you want to talk in public?”

“Ah?” Of course not!

The female leader could not help laughing, made a coughing sound: “I’m leaving, you guys talk slowly, mm, talk slowly.” Finished speaking, really turned around, with light footsteps, you can even say she was cheerfully dismissed.

Hence, it’s only her and him remaining in a standoff by the door.

Thinking this little girl tangled like this for a very long time, he simply opened the door, turning back.

Enter, enter in?

Tong Nian continued to look down, continued to struggle for more than ten seconds. Finally step by step she moved to go inside. Bypa.s.sing the porch, her sight suddenly becomes clear. Mm? The stomach hemorrhaging sissy?

She was stunned.

Lying on one of the large beds, because he was not wearing gla.s.ses, he could only squint his eyes.  He sees her walked into the room, and also have on a much unexpected look. Sitting behind a desk on a sofa, holding a silver fruit knife, quickly in his hands peeling around the rings: “The two of you, can say the truth now?

Ah? Tong Nian was at a loss to see him.

“I really don’t know her……” Feeling it was better off to really be stomach bleeding, than to be mistakenly examined in the future, could only rest in the hotel, but was suddenly forced to wake up and to be lectured as well.

Slight puckering between the eyebrows.

He closed the knife, just cut a good bite out of the apple, while eating, while walking past, with the handle raised his chin: “Hurry up.”

……

One glance you hack me to death or let it be expression.

His eyes drooped, stared for a few second. Finally, he sees Tong Nian whose head is in the fog: “You also do not intend to tell the truth?

“Ah?” Tong Nian continues confusedly.

“Still insisting on not recognizing him?”

“Really do not know ah……”

“Do you know he has a girlfriend?” Raises eyebrow.

“Don’t know……”

“Now you know, have any ideas now? Mm?”

“……” Why should I have any ideas……

Suddenly he jumps out of the bed, and puts on his eyegla.s.ses fiercely. He barefooted walks quickly, and with two hands he held on to Tong Nian’s shoulder. Endures his pain, he spits out every word by word: “Little girl……I beg of you, I have a girlfriend, I don’t know who you are, okay? Ah? You give the truth, okay?!”

Ah?

For a while……

They……they would not have thought that I followed this sissy right?!

She opens her eyes wide, watching in disbelief, opened her mouth, and stunned shock not saying a word. Then she fl.u.s.tered looks to him who continuing to eat the apple……looking back, back and forth several times, finally restoring her language capabilities: “I am not……I don’t know this sissy……this, really! Really, I don’t know him, you don’t misunderstand me, and we really don’t have any relationship……”

Looking back at him, a pair of “Leader, you see, this girl has nothing to do with me” indignant facial expressions.

He shrugged, flings a “like I trust you crafty brat” eyes..

Want to cry, but have no tears, finally he gives up : “Little sister, you say, in the end why did you find me……let us today make our words count clearly .”

“……”

“Signatures can do, pictures can also do, whatever conditions you mention, as long as you tell the truth. Say I really have nothing to do with you! Really, I swear, you mention any requirement, as long as it isn’t to be my girlfriend, I will satisfy you.”

Her head keeps shaking, depressed really want to cry out.

How could it be to find you, and what relationship is there with you ah……

“Who wants to be your girlfriend,” she tearfully throws out a hand, “I don’t like you……” Finished speaking, she looked very much suffering from injustice to the one eating the apple watching the fun show, eyes turning red, really immediately about to cry.

This look……

Speechless, from his plentiful love experiences, immediately understand this look’s meaning……

This is……

He also looked back, daring not to believe, fiercely despising.

This is obviously your love trouble, swindler!
