Playing Fish Trapped in Secret Room

Book 1: The Storm is Coming

Chapter 15

She lowered her head, pretending to watch the video, in order to avoid Gun’s eyes. “I certainly remember.  Your backpack is still at my home.” There was a fierce team fight going on in the video, with double kill and triple kill notifications going off.

But her vision was blurry.

She was choking up and couldn’t raise her head to meet him as she was afraid that if she moved, her tears would start to flow down.

“Oh?”

“But they’re of no use now.”  She controlled her voice and continued to speak light-heartedly.  “The keyboard, mouse and headphones are all obsolete. Probably can sell them as antiques.”

“Then just sell them as antiques.”  Gun’s voice was still coa.r.s.e as usual. In those days, they liked to call him the male Zhou Xun (note: a very famous Chinese movie actress with coa.r.s.e voice) because of his unusual voice.  “Just say Gun had used them to win three champions.h.i.+ps and a bunch of international individual t.i.tles.  As long as there’s a buyer, we will share it fifty-fifty.”

“Alright, fifty-fifty.”

She did not dare to raise her head all this time.

Fortunately Gun did not continue the conversation.  He walked around the front three rows of SP area toward his own people.  When he reached the K&K area, almost all the K&K people stood up.  He smiled and playfully patted each and everyone of their shoulders.  When he reached Grunt and Dt, he didn’t just greet them rather he asked 97 to move over a seat, and then sat down in between these two main players.

Ai Qing wiped her eyes.  She pretended to talk to the girl team members behind her and turned around to look at them.

She forgot to turn off the video.

The video on her iPad turned dark suddenly.  An alert window popped up to remind her that there was only 10% battery remaining.

Someone stretched out his hand and turned off the alert window.

“Did you cry?”

“Uhm.”  She turned back.  “I can’t help it.”

Solo lowered his eyes and looked at her.  “I just learned it too.  He was one of K&K’s investors.”

“Investor?”

“Yes, investor.”

Solo stood in front of her. He did not bother to hide the fact that he was looking at that man who had battled with him side by side and was his best and most understanding brother. However, at this place, at this moment, the two most s.h.i.+ning star players in Solo’s team before were no longer players any more.  One was a SP Chinese Regional manager and the other was one of K&K’s investors.

It seemed that it was from this moment on that he truly realized it:

The golden era that had belonged to Solo’s team in the past had already ended.
