Rejected by Blood, Embraced by Love: All-Round Star Goes Viral-Chapter 120: Gaming Competition, Zhi Zhi Wants to Play Games Too!?

Chapter 120: Chapter 120: Gaming Competition, Zhi Zhi Wants to Play Games Too!?

[Xiao Si, next door Qin Zheng teamed up with Sun Yan who kept throwing the game and still didn’t lose, yet on this side, even with a War God, they can keep losing. I remember Gu Wenlin’s nickname was the ’Prince of Esports’, right? /dog head.]

[Trash hacking fans get out of Linlin’s livestream. Aren’t you aware that your idol cheats?]

[Ha, how dare you even bring up the Prince of Esports? Are you addicted to riding our Linlin’s coattails or what? Those girls are just bad at the game, not our Linlin’s fault?]

People at the homestay, of course, couldn’t see the comments.

Gu Wenlin was scrolling through his phone and suddenly said, "How about we organize a gaming competition? There will be prizes for the winner."

A group of girls immediately brightened up, "Prizes? How would we compete?"

"I remember there’s a professional esports player staying at the homestay next door, right?" One girl said with a smile, "Linlin, we love watching you play games. You look super cool when you do. How about we compete against the homestay next door?"

"A professional player? You mean Gu Zhi’s brother Qin Zheng, right?" another girl scoffed, "He’s been banned from tournaments, don’t you know? Now he can only work behind the scenes, serves him right for cheating."

"Exactly, he used to ride our Linlin’s ’Prince of Esports’ title without shame. Don’t know where they got the face. The siblings are equally disgusting, one rides on the Prince of Esports, the other riding as the Gu Family’s daughter, never considering what qualification she has to be Linlin’s sister."

One girl looked toward Gu Wenlin and said, "Linlin, why not compete against them? Show them your awesomeness."

Gu Yiyi was listening, completely puzzled, but Gu Wenlin just curled his lips indifferently, "I’m up for anything."

He had naturally seen the online chatter about Qin Zheng using his "Prince of Esports" moniker back when he was a bit famous in the esports scene, and he couldn’t believe how shameless it was.

This Qin Zheng was on the same team as one of his friends, and they were rivals back then, like fire and water. Qin Zheng always outshone his friend, but in the end, he became the defeated opponent, losing his qualification to compete.

He wanted to give Qin Zheng a lesson, to show him it’s not so easy to ride on his popularity.

A few fans quickly chimed in, "Let’s go call them over."

Having said that, they set off for the No.3 Homestay.

However, some viewers in the livestream chat were dissatisfied:

[These fans are going too far, aren’t they? Talking trash behind people’s backs like this? Isn’t Gu Wenlin supposed to stop this, being an idol? What kind of person can be an idol like this?]

[Calling people cheaters over and over is just too much. Long-time fans all know God Qin was forced out by malicious competition within the team. With Gu Wenlin’s skills, dare he challenge God Qin? Don’t embarrass yourselves.]

[Seriously, are there still people defending cheating? Can the defending fans just leave the livestream already!?]

...

Inside the No.3 Homestay, Qin Zheng and the others were engrossed in their game, while some guests who hadn’t left couldn’t resist taking out their phones to join in the fun after seeing Qin Zheng’s skills.

A few girls walked in and saw Gu Zhi sitting at the bar.

She was wearing a simple tank top, sitting quietly watching a movie. Her subtly made-up face was exceptionally striking, exuding a cold and noble aura.

The girls paused, seemingly shocked by Gu Zhi’s appearance. She was even more beautiful than her polished online pictures! The overall aura she radiated was ethereal and unattainable.

Remembering their purpose, the girls coughed lightly, masked their amazement, and asked, "Is this the No.3 Homestay?"

Hearing this, Gu Zhi raised her eyes, her slender eyelashes fluttering like dragonfly wings, "Yes, can I help you?"

"We’re guests from the No.1 Homestay. There’s a gaming competition hosted there, and we heard there’s a professional gamer here, so we invite you to join us."

Gu Zhi paused upon hearing this, a glint of coldness appearing in her eyes.

The group in the living room also looked up upon hearing this.

Han Liheng straightened up, "A gaming competition? Who’s hosting it?"

"No.1 Homestay. Our Linlin is really good at gaming." After the girl spoke, she looked at him and said, "Are you Han Liheng? You’re so handsome."

Han Liheng: "..."

He had never been praised by other people’s fans like this before, and suddenly felt a bit floating.

He thanked her quickly and looked at Qin Zheng next to him, "No.1 Homestay has a gaming competition, want to go? Play a few rounds?"

Qin Zheng frowned slightly, glanced at him, and looked rather unpleasant, "Not going."

"Why not go! Gu Wenlin is also great at games, jokingly called a half-esports person by industry insiders, why not have a PK? What’s the point of playing all the time like this."

He had long heard Gu Wenlin was an esports player delayed by singing and dancing, and had always admired him.

But the other was a top streamer, out of his reach.

Yet Qin Zheng still refused, putting away his phone, "Not interested."

[Ha, Qin Zheng’s not disinterested, he’s scared, right? Afraid of showing flaws in front of a real esports pro?]

[Fans in the comments, don’t get too smug. God Qin not playing with your idol is saving face for you. Do you really think God Qin, an esports fan, would lose to a traffic star?]

The comments instantly erupted into a heated argument.

The girls felt awkward seeing this and couldn’t help but sneer lightly, "Surely you’re not scared? It’s just a game. Linlin’s already ready and waiting for you."

Qin Zheng’s expression instantly darkened, giving the talking girl a cold glare.

Gu Zhi, however, looked up and let out a cold chuckle.

She directly looked at Qin Zheng and said calmly, "Go ahead."

Qin Zheng was taken aback, looking at her in confusion.

"I’m going too." Gu Zhi picked up her phone, walking out from behind the bar, "I’ll come with you to play a bit."

Qin Zheng: "!!!"

[!!! No way, Zhi Zhi is going to play too? It suddenly reminded me that Zhi Zhi also performed amazingly in the first episode playing games!]

[Oh wow, now I’m excited, I love watching Zhi Zhi play games.]

[Heh, does Gu Zhi think that by accompanying her brother, they can defeat Linlin?]

[I really can’t with these ignorant fans. If you actually looked at the true story, you couldn’t possibly say Qin is riding on Gu Wenlin. When God Qin debuted in esports, Gu Wenlin was nowhere to be found. He was called the Prince of Esports due to his youth and extraordinary talent and skills, who’s Gu Wenlin to claim the title!?]

In the livestream, some old esports fans were quite irate.

Gu Zhi and the others, of course, couldn’t see the comments and got ready to head to the No.1 Homestay.

The originally quiet Qin Mo, who was working on his exercises, quickly set his pen down and followed, vigilantly staying by Gu Zhi’s side the whole time.

The production crew, upon learning they were heading to a gaming competition, naturally didn’t want to miss such a juicy topic and exciting moment. They immediately set up the best equipment for an all-encompassing, no-blind-spot livestream.

They even bought a trending topic on Weibo, and in no time, the number of people in the livestream skyrocketed.

As soon as the group arrived at the No.1 Homestay, they saw Gu Wenlin and others leisurely sitting in front of the equipment, waiting for them.
