Chapter 406  : Xiao Qiao Shows Her Stuff (6)

Zhang Mao was a scheming person. When he realized he wasn’t as popular, he made use of Fan Jie’s name repeatedly to gain popularity for himself.

At one point, Fan Jie had released a video on Weibo of himself slaying enemies in a game, and people praised him for it. At the same time, Zhang Mao suddenly sent a match request. Firstly to take advantage of the opportunity and gain attention, and secondly he saw it as a chance to gain fans.

After all, Zhang Mao was actually quite good at gaming. The moment Lot hit the Chinese market, it became a big thing.

Hence, Fan Jie didn’t really have the option to not respond to the match request.

“I can’t let him belittle me!” Fan Jie hooted and rolled up his sleeves angrily, making a show of his readiness to take on the big challenge. “Hurry up, 9brothers, get online!”

Wang Xuan and Li Mu threw glances at each other and coughed. “Fan Jie, we’re lacking players!”

Fan Jie paused and realized that among their regular players, there were only four of them there now.

If the players weren’t able to meet in person during a match, communications would just be that bit harder. Furthermore, at a time like this, when most people were having their meals, they may not be able to come online for a match.

Subconsciously, his gaze landed on Shen Liangchuan.

Before he could speak, Mo Xicheng interjected, “Brother Shen doesn’t play video games.”

Qiao Lian was a little surprised by his comment and couldn’t help giving Shen Liangchuan a glance.

He doesn’t play games?

She had played a couple of matches with him and, although they didn’t need a lot of skills for those games, she could nevertheless tell that he wasn’t a person who didn’t play video games.

After some thinking, Fan Jie was on the verge of giving in. “What can we do now? We are lacking a player for carrying on with the match.”

Mo Xicheng tried to talk him out of it, “Just ignore him.”

Fan Jie looked up sharply. “No way! Then I’d look like I’m scared of him!”

Having said that, he looked around the room and then his gaze fell on Qiao Lian. Immediately, his eyes lit up. “Sister-in-law, you can help us!”

Qiao Lian grimaced at his suggestion and rejected him outrightly. “No, I can’t.”

Fan Jie stepped forward immediately and tugged at Qiao Lian’s sleeve. “Sister-in-law, please, I beg of you!”

Qiao Lian raised an eyebrow and glanced once at the calm Shen Liangchuan. He was expressionless, indicating that he was leaving it up to her to make the decision.

She immediately smiled and said, “What’s in it for me if I helped you?”

Fan Jie immediately said, “What do you want? Just let me know!”

Qiao Lian looked briefly at each of them in the room and grinned. “How about… if we win, the four of you will agree to an interview with me whenever I need it. If there’s any breaking news, I’ll be the first to know!”

Fan Jie sealed the deal with a slam on the table. “No problem!”

Even if they didn’t win, wouldn’t they help anyway, being Shen Liangchuan’s friends?

Sister-in-law was usually quite sharp, why was she making such a silly request now?

Shen Liangchuan gave Qiao Lian a brief glance and lowered his eyelids.

It seemed she was still upset about the fact that Fan Jie had gone back on his words regarding the exclusive interview that time. But Shen Liangchuan was well aware that Qiao Lian knew he was behind it.

And now with this agreement, she had removed his ability to influence them in the future.

Qiao Lian picked up her cell phone and entered her sub-account.

After adding Fan Jie as a friend, the latter exclaimed loudly, “Cr*p… Sister-in-law, your level is really low. I suppose you don’t play this game very much!”

Qiao Lian’s pupils shrank when she heard his remark. It’s true that it had been some time since she played.

Fan Jie sighed. “Oh nevermind, Sister-in-law, just take instructions from me then. Follow my lead, don’t get yourself slaughtered.”

After saying this, he glanced at the rest of the players. “Everyone, make sure you protect her. Don’t let her get beaten to tears, even if it means we don’t win the match!”
