Yu Lian's team composition was very strange. She played Yao, Ao Chen chose Jing as the jungler, and her teammates chose Lu Ban No. 0, Shangguan Wan'er, and Li Xin. Not only were they squishy, ​​but their crowd control was also shockingly low.

She started rubbing her face as soon as the page loaded, forgetting to even show off the sky screen; you could tell she was going to get crushed in this game.

"What kind of weird lineup is this? I don't know how they could pick Li Xin for the top lane?!" Ao Chen, who hates the top lane the most, cursed even before Yu Lian, gritting his teeth, "Guess if he's playing Light Li Xin or Dark Li Xin, I'm betting on KFC... Sigh, whatever he plays, I can't farm the lane, I'm not betting."

The game started, and Yu Lian walked towards the middle lane, sighing, "Why don't you curse Lu Ban No. 7? Didn't I pick Yao first? The enemy team has Sun Shangxiang and Miyamoto Musashi, how am I supposed to protect him? It's going to be another suicide game."

"Um... just focus on yourself, don't worry so much." Ao Chen started attacking the blue buff. "Let him play by himself, you come and play with me when you reach level 4."

Yu Lian hummed in agreement, then went to the bottom lane to help Lu Ban No. 7, who had been AFK under the tower since the start of the game. Lu Ban No. 7 stood there dumbly waiting at the health pack, his health bar still half full.

It's infuriating to look at.

The opposing team had Sun Shangxiang and Shao Siyuan. As soon as Yu Lian arrived at the bottom lane, they cleared the lane. Yu Lian carelessly used her first skill to try and knock up the two connected characters, but Shao Siyuan kicked her into a deer shape.

"You bitch!" Yu Lian cursed, her brows furrowed, before timidly jumping into the tower to cower with Lu Ban.

Yao, now back to human form, is even taller than Luban; Yu Lian wished she could kick that egg away. Sun Shangxiang isn't strong in the early game, and even if she and the support were linked from the start, she shouldn't have been beaten like this!

As the minion wave pushed into the tower, the previously motionless Luban finally came to life and began frantically farming minions.

Yu Lian watched from the side, feeling that poverty-stricken couples face endless sorrows. Still angry from being kicked by Shao Siyuan, she ordered Ao Chen in a harsh voice, "You come to the bottom lane and kill this Shao Siyuan."

"They're facing Miyamoto, I'm not going there." Mirror diligently farmed the red buff in the red zone. "He probably started with red, I might as well gank mid lane, that way I can..."

Before he finished speaking, Yu Lian understood.

He wants to eat the middle route.

Ao Chen is a really nasty jungler, at least in Yu Lian's eyes. He constantly steals lane farm and is obsessed with ganking the top and mid lanes, rarely coming to the bottom lane. Yu Lian plays support, and when she duo queues with him, she hardly ever sees him, so she has to curse him out every game.

"Get out of here! Shangguan Wan'er is the core, what are you doing eating yours?"

Mid-lane heroes need to farm resources to grow, but a jungler like Ao Chen, who's starving like a dog, won't care about that. He'll just walk by and give you all the minions, or pretend to walk by and give you all the minions.

Only when Yu Lian plays mid lane does he not dare to eat. Note that it's not that he doesn't want to, but that he doesn't dare to.

  

Sun Shangxiang didn't push the tower; she must have gone to hunt birds. Luban cleared a wave of minions, and Yu Lian was just about to use her first skill to scout the bushes when a message popped up in the game chat from the enemy Sun Shangxiang.

[All] I don't want to be too despicable: Xiao Lian?

Yu Lian narrowed her eyes and subconsciously opened the panel to confirm that her current ID was "Intertwined Love and Hate" which she had changed a few days ago, without explicitly stating that her name was Xiao Lian.

Although people usually put their own name in their IDs, how could anyone guess it so subtly? It's unbelievable, why didn't they just ask if her name is Xiao Ai?

"He knows you." Ao Chen saw you too. He finished clearing the red buff and headed towards the mid lane, his tone a little strange. "He must have mistaken you for someone else. Are you really that well-known in high-elo games?"

"Who knows?" Yu Lian replied irritably, protecting Lu Ban as he ate the line, and took the opportunity to send Sun Shangxiang a question mark.

[All] A mixture of pity and hate: ?

[All] I don't want to be too despicable: We played together the other night.

[All] I don't want to be too despicable: Gongsun Li.

When he mentioned Gongsun Li, Yu Lian had a vague recollection of her.

Two days ago, Yu Lian was really bored in the early morning and wanted to play a couple of rounds of King of Glory. However, after recruiting for an hour, she couldn't find a single player who suited her taste to enter the room.

Yu Lian has a lot of experience in recruitment. The ID and profile picture can't be too shabby, it's too intimidating. Then she checks his profile for game stats; she doesn't want players who play duels or mid-lane, preferring junglers, and marksmen are okay too. She can play support and follow along.

Whether or not there is a small national standard is irrelevant; it's better if there is, but it's not necessary if there isn't. If there's no standard, it might be because the user is using a friend's account or doing freebies. The key point is to look at their season rating.

A total score of 85 or above is acceptable to eat, while a score below 85 carries significant risk. Of course, this does not mean that a score above 85 is risk-free.

Anyone who comes in and immediately starts talking on their mic, regardless of their skill level, will be kicked out instantly. These kinds of people are scary; they're either socially adept losers or impatient guys who will invite you to play a game and then chat on the phone with you while you're talking incoherently.

Sometimes, before even finishing a game, they'll start playing those ridiculous scenarios in the game, like "Can't you say something nice when you kill someone?"

Therefore, Yu Lian's recruitment process takes at least half an hour each time. Even though she has money, she doesn't hire companions. The sense of accomplishment from being paid to be guided is different from that from a man willingly guiding you.

Moreover, Yu Lian was terrified of poverty and didn't want to spend any money on men.

Waiting is long and boring. When Yu Lian felt dizzy and lightheaded, she really wished that King of Glory could have a review platform like Dianping (a Chinese review website), where only members of the opposite sex who had played together could leave reviews. This would allow someone like Yu Lian, who loves to refer to buyer reviews, to make a more intuitive choice.

It can also add some fun to the waiting time.

Gongsun Li arrived just when Yu Lian was almost in despair, sporting the new "National Rank 50 Gongsun Li" title. Her overall development path score was 99, and she had historical national rankings for Gongsun Li, Marco, Sun Shangxiang, and Sun Quan, achieving a 90-rank development path.

Yu Lian quickly checked all his data and immediately started the app, afraid that the person would run away.

Yu Lian was furious because she couldn't pick Yao in the first game and the opponent banned her. She kept checking which floor the opponent had banned her from, and she held a grudge. She was heartbroken because she couldn't ride the small country's development lane.

The man neither turned on his microphone nor typed. When it was his turn to choose, Gongsun Li and Marco kept switching between them and couldn't make a decision for a long time. Yu Lian suddenly had a flash of inspiration and started typing.

[Team] A mixture of pity and hate: Gongsun Li

[Team] A mixture of pity and hate: [Acting cute]

Sure enough, Gongsun Li was locked in instantly. The game confirmed the hero with a loud "click."

Yu Lian couldn't help but chuckle to herself while holding her phone, her vanity satisfied, and she felt a strong sense of husbandly affection for him. For Yu Lian, being a husband was just a fleeting feeling; he had played the hero she wanted to see.

It's very ambiguous.

That night, Yu Lian played three rounds with him, winning two gold medals and one top-tier roaming medal. Yao even won the top-tier roaming medal. Yu Lian was so happy that her fingertips were almost numb.

Gongsun Li doesn't talk or type much; she just silently leads the way, but she has everything she needs.

He would let Yao use all his skills to kite her back to the fountain, even when he was low on health, he would give her the health pack. He received every signal from Yu Lian individually. If he deliberately followed the jungler for a while, he would chase after him and keep clicking "Request to regroup, request to regroup, request to regroup..."

And he feeds you blue potions every game.

He didn't tell Yu Lian to take it, but instead reduced the blue buff to a sliver of health and stood still, waiting for Yu Lian to understand.

Yu Lian likes to eat snacks while playing games. A few times, he was hit by the blue buff several times before he realized it and went to collect the blue buff. He would walk to the side and wait for Yu Lian to collect the blue buff before following up.

So ambiguous, so ambiguous.

After finishing the three rounds, Yu Lian was still somewhat unsatisfied. When she encountered such a good guy, she just wanted to squeeze him until her fingers were completely exhausted.

But he typed "I have something to do tomorrow, so I'm logging off" and left the group. Yu Lian waited for several seconds but didn't receive his friend request. After hesitating for several more seconds, she finally added him as a friend.

He passed.

[Friend] A mixture of pity and hate: Do you want to add me on WeChat?

Yu Lian rarely takes the initiative to ask for a verified account. She has to maintain her aloof goddess image. Usually, the other party brings it up, and then she weighs whether to agree or not. Of course, those who agree are all potential online dating partners.

The experience of traveling with this man was so wonderful that Yu Lian's developed online dating instincts started to stir. He was so quiet, so she figured she could take the initiative a little.

Yes.

[Friend] A mixture of pity and resentment: [Acting cute]

[Friend] A mixture of pity and hate: Brother

"Brother" is a rather flirtatious word; she uses it when she's being cute and charming, and its importance is comparable to the bait on a fishing rod.

He agreed.

His WeChat was unusually clean; his Moments were only visible for a month, and there was nothing to see. Yu Lian couldn't find what she wanted to see, and for a moment she wondered if he had blocked her, or if he had a wife.

King of Glory players never lack female companions, especially those with so many prominent avatars. The number of new friend requests they receive daily is comparable to the number of job applications in the inbox of HR professionals at major companies.

After Yu Lian's hormones cooled down, she thought about the man's seemingly unintentional but actually trained actions in the game, and she clicked on the man's avatar with some skepticism and looked at it again and again.

It's just an ordinary anime profile picture, without a watermark, not an original couple profile picture, and not a scrap of a profile picture. There's nothing wrong with it.

She worriedly changed the man's contact name to: Finished Product Number, Small Country Development Road

"Finished Product Number: Xiaoguo Development Road: Hello"

Xiao Lian's inner monologue: Hello.

"Xiao Lian's inner monologue: I'm going to sleep now, I have class tomorrow quq"

Xiao Lian's inner monologue: [Animated emoticon]

"Finished Product Number: Small Country Development Path - Good"

It's true that there were classes, but more often than not, it was because she was too lazy to chat. Yu Lian was very realistic; she only took her three times, and she didn't want to talk to her at all.

Chatting is a waste of energy. The chat with someone you've just met is the most tiring. It's awkward, you have to put in a lot of effort to maintain your persona, and you have to be careful not to make any mistakes.

Yu Lian's initial enthusiasm for him cooled down, so she closed WeChat in the background and started watching videos.

The next day, after waking up, whether out of feigned aloofness or something else, he didn't send any more messages. The one who takes the initiative is always the subordinate, and Yu Lian, wanting to maintain her composure, didn't send him anything further. The two of them remained inactive on each other's contact lists in this tacit agreement.

As a result, Yu Lian's memory was hazy, and she didn't recognize him at first.

I never expected to run into someone in ranked matches today. It seems like nobody plays King of Glory anymore.

[All] A mixture of pity and hate: Oh oh

[All] A mixture of pity and hate: Please don't hit me, okay? quq

Sun Shangxiang's roll seemed to falter slightly, and her enhanced basic attack landed on the minion wave. Yao, standing beside the minion wave, was completely unharmed.

Shao Siyuan, who was paired with Sun Shangxiang from the start, turned around and went to the mid lane.
