After lunch, Shen Zhi boarded the group bus and headed to the stadium for the competition.

"Zhizhi, move to another seat. Third Brother has a keyboard in his bag; we can't let it get damaged."

"Aww...good!"

Shen Zhi nodded obediently, shifted her little bottom, and sat down next to Shen Xingye, even shrinking further in as if afraid of touching his bag.

The little girl touched her jade gourd thoughtfully.

Third Brother's keyboard is very important, so she'll help him protect it.

[Jade gourd, good gourd! If anyone hurts Third Brother's keyboard, you'll reflect the damage back!]

As soon as the thought settled in his mind, an invisible golden light pierced into the black bag in front of him.

Shen Zhi ran into Lu Weiwei as soon as she arrived at the venue.

She also got off a club bus, followed by Lu Yuze.

Shen Zhi raised an eyebrow. Why hadn't her third brother's defeated opponent given up on the path of e-sports?

Could it be that he hasn't lost enough?

Shen Zhi tossed her pigtails, pretending not to see Lu Weiwei, and followed Zhou Ye toward the lounge.

However, some troubles are not something you can avoid by dodging. Lu Weiwei suddenly rushed into Shen Xingye's backpack, which was slung across his body.

With a thud, the bag fell to the ground, and, to make matters worse, Lu Weiwei stepped on top of it.

Even from a distance, you can hear the clicking of the keyboard.

"What are you doing!"

Shen Zhi was just as angry as the calf, and charged over with a roar, shoving aside the increasingly audacious Lu Weiwei.

Shen Xing was furious, but his first priority was to check his keyboard.

This is the keyboard he's been using for training, the one he's most comfortable with.

My teammate spoke very quickly:

"Oh no, oh no, I just heard a cracking sound, this keyboard must be... wait?"

The keyboard was perfectly intact, without a single scratch, spotless, as if it had never been dropped.

Others around him were just as bewildered as he was: "He fell like that and he's still okay? That's amazing!"

"But I clearly heard a sound just now, like something broke..."

"Actually, me too."

"That probably belongs to someone else. Luckily it's not Hoshino's, or it would be troublesome."

Shen Zhi praised herself for her cleverness, her little expression extremely smug.

She's such a smart baby!

Now that we've confirmed the keyboard is okay, it's time to find the culprit and settle the score.

Shen Zhi crossed her arms. After being away for so long, she was no longer the timid and cowardly Shen Zhi of the past. She was now the arrogant Shen Zhi, Niu Hulu Shen Zhi!

Seeing Lu Weiwei about to leave, she grabbed the other woman's hair and pulled her back sharply.

"Why are you leaving? I haven't settled accounts with you yet!"

She was so wild that she stunned all the young men around her.

Who would have thought that Zhizhi, who is as sweet as a little cake, would actually pull people's hair!

But I must say, that's a great joke!

That girl was definitely doing it on purpose!

Lu Weiwei was also shocked, clutching her scalp in pain, and looked at Shen Zhi in disbelief:

"You dare pull my hair?"

"That's exactly what I'm talking about! You bumped into my brother first, and then tried to break his keyboard. Pulling your hair was the least I could do. If you dare to do anything bad again, I'll make sure you lose all your hair and become bald!"

Lu Weiwei seemed to be frightened by Shen Zhi, or perhaps she thought of something, and for the moment she did not dare to argue.

Shen Zhi guessed it; it must be the effect of the talisman she had thrown away at the Lu family's house. Lu Zhenhua and his wife must have lost most of their hair by now.

How could Lu Weiwei not be afraid as she watched her parents go bald every day?

Lu Weiwei covered her scalp, her voice muffled:

"Your brother's keyboard is fine, isn't it? Is it really that big of a deal?"

"My brother's keyboard was fine because he's a good person and he was lucky, not because you hit someone and didn't apologize." Shen Zhi pointed to the security camera by the door. "Should I go and pull out the camera right now and tell the competition referee? I'll see if your brother can participate in the competition!"

Lu Weiwei naturally didn't care, but Lu Yuze was afraid.

He's really having a tough time; this week it's his turn to be paired with Lu Weiwei, so he has no choice but to bring her to the competition venue.

"Don't cause me any more trouble." Lu Yuze warned Lu Weiwei impatiently, then looked at Shen Xingye reluctantly, "Sorry, if your keyboard breaks, I can pay for it."

"No need, I wouldn't dare use the money you paid for it." Shen Xingye rolled his eyes without any mercy.

Lu Yuze had always disliked her, but he never expected his sister to be even more annoying.

But the feeling of being protected by Zhizhi just now was really nice.

The little girl has grown up a bit and can protect him now.

Shen Zhi's eyes darted around, and she revealed the QR code on her Little Genius phone watch:

"You don't need to pay for a new keyboard, but we still need to settle the cost. It looks fine now, but what if the keyboard is internally damaged? So, you have to pay!"

Shen Zhi gave Shen Xingye a look, and the latter immediately gave a number: "5000!"

Lu Yuze gritted his teeth, his lips twitching. Thinking of his prior plans, he was still waiting to meet Shen Xingye on the field and defeat him decisively.

He had no choice but to pay the 5000 yuan, and with a dark expression, he dragged Lu Weiwei away.

Shen Zhi looked at the payment notification with a smug smile, as if she were taking credit for it:

"Third Brother, isn't Zhizhi amazing? I helped you make money!"

"You're not at a disadvantage at all now."

"That's right, that's right~ Big brother said that no matter what I do, you will protect me."

She used to be honest and dutiful because no one was looking after her, but now that someone is protecting her, isn't she going to let loose? Life is only about 30,000 days long, who knows if there will be another chance to experience it all again.

Surprisingly, Zhou Ye checked the keyboard and found no problems at all.

However, just to be on the safe side, Shen Xingye was allowed to familiarize himself with the new keyboard. After all, he was the spokesperson for this keyboard brand, and they had plenty of top-of-the-line keyboards.

At the same time, a sharp explosion came from Lu Yuze's rest room.

"Why did my keyboard break like this?!"

He was clearly well-covered the whole way, so how come the keycap switches were broken, as if someone had smashed them and then stomped on them several times?

The only time he was away from his person was during the few minutes he got out of the car, when Lu Weiwei helped him carry it for a short while.

Lu Yuze looked at Lu Weiwei with a resentful gaze; the latter was still sulking about her brother.

He didn't even protect her or help her vent her anger; she even had her hair pulled!

He's still glaring at her!

Why are you looking at me like that?

"I also want to ask you what you did to my keyboard." Lu Yuze threw the pile of broken keyboard pieces in front of Lu Weiwei.

Lu Weiwei was naturally dumbfounded.

But Lu Yuze didn't want to hear her explanation, and slammed a pot lid down on her:

"From now until the end of the match, you must stay in this lounge and do absolutely nothing!"

"Third Brother!" Lu Weiwei exclaimed in disbelief, "If you hadn't brought me along today, you would have been in deep trouble!"

"If you don't want to listen, then take a plane back to Jiangcheng yourself." He had had enough of Lu Weiwei; she was practically a jinx.

"Are you kicking me out?"

"Shut up."

A jinx that brings bad luck to anyone who gets involved with it.

Lu Yuze left the lounge with a cold face, locked his hand behind his back, and wanted to find a new keyboard as soon as possible to get used to the feel of it.

Lu Weiwei angrily slumped onto the sofa, turned on the TV hanging on the wall, and started watching the live broadcast.

Unexpectedly, as soon as they opened the app, the director was filming a close-up shot of Shen Zhi.

The on-site game commentators also highly praised Shen Zhi.
