Chapter 242: Chapter 241: Are You Okay?!
Stick your leg in your mouth, that was of course his mother Zhou Huiâs harsh remark. As for him, he almost never argues with people while gaming.
Simply because he types too slowly to win in a cuss fight.
Especially when playing League of Legends; whenever he encounters a troll, he just mutes them and plays his own game. He doesnât care about winning or losing and has long been past the phase of obsessing over rank.
By his senior year, several of his champions had reached level 5 honor, known as the legendary "Smoke Swallower Award," and even had return effects.
But Wang Xing never envied him. He even said, if you donât have the courage to fight for your clan, whatâs the point of playing?
The two were clearly extremes. Itâs not that he was a saint; he was just too lazy to type insults back. Why bother arguing when you can take action?
Like today, he was all set for a showdown, but then came a girl with fair skin, a pretty face, and long legs - that was a tricky situation!
"So youâre the Invincible Dinosaur Warrior?" Su Qing asked, sizing up the woman before him.
White tee, denim shorts, sneakers, black baseball cap, with a matching online-celebrity-style black mask, and oversized sunglasses, she wasnât short and had a slim build. Even though her face was covered, her aura suggested she wasnât unattractive.
"Thatâs me, what about it? You think youâre tough? Come on, Iâm standing right here. Try touching me. And Jiang Cityâs so-called most handsome man? You look just average!" the woman said. Even through the mask, Su Qing found the voice somewhat familiar, which made him a bit puzzled.
Hearing this, Su Qing couldnât help but take a cold breath inside. Why did this girl seem so aggrieved?
Wasnât his mother the one who ended up in tears? Now it seems like both sides were hurt.
If it was an elementary school student or a small-time delinquent, he could still reason with them. But if itâs a woman, his Su Family never taught him how to fight women, right? Thatâs just unfair to me, Fat Tiger!
And this womanâs mouth was sharp as ever, not taking any loss, and started attacking him personally, particularly his looks - how could he stand that?
"Youâre good-looking, wrapping yourself like a mummy, afraid of showing your face, huh? Take off your mask and sunglasses before you talk to me! And whatâs with the baseball bat? Cosplaying Harley Quinn? Are you actually a clown?" Hearing this, Su Qing immediately retaliated with words.
Though hitting women was off the table, he was not bad at verbal sparring, so fighting back was necessary.
"Of course, Iâm good-looking, definitely better than you. Iâm here; didnât you say youâd shove my leg in my mouth? Go ahead, Iâm waiting!" The woman took a big step forward, looking quite intimidating with her bat.
But Su Qing could see she was quite nervous, her whole body tense, and even her voice was strained.
Su Qing took a step back, glanced at her, and scoffed: "A good man doesnât fight with a woman. Just because youâre a woman, Iâm not going to bother with you. If you were a guy, hmph!"
Saying this, he turned to leave. She was a woman, after all, what else could he do? Beating her wouldnât be honorable, losing would be ridiculous.
Though he didnât think heâd lose, there was no justification for fighting a woman.
đđ«đđđšđđŻđđ đđđ.đđŒđ
"Quit pretending, just admit youâre afraid. I only posted a half-face photo, and donât say you didnât see that I was a woman. You can leave, just apologize to me!" The woman barred his way, relentless.
Su Qing: "When did you..."
Halfway through, he suddenly froze. He was sure he had never seen her photos, but now she claimed he knew she was a woman, which was intriguing. There was only one explanation: his mom knew she was a woman all along and deliberately didnât tell him, hoping he might bring back a daughter-in-law.
Just as he thought of that, a voiceover sounded in his head:
[Mom indeed got mad, crying was real, and wanting you to confront her was real too. She only found out this afternoon that sheâs a girl, and from her half-face photo could see sheâs a beauty, intentionally didnât tell you, hoping you might hit it off with a potential daughter-in-law.]
Su Qing: ...
As expected, he knew this was a trap. But the voiceover was not over.
[Standing in front of you is a popular entertainment star, Mimi, and comedic actress Tang Nan is filming nearby.]
Hearing this, Su Qingâs eyes widened in disbelief - No way, Mimi? So thatâs why the voice sounded familiar.
He couldnât fathom his mom trash-talking with a celebrity online, let alone exchanging WeChat insults. What the heck?
The worst part was, Tang Nan, the comedic actress, was nearby filming. It felt like a setup.
He immediately looked around, trying to locate where Tang Nan was hiding. Now he understood why he was told specifically not to bring anyone - it made sense now.
"What are you looking for? Apologize to me!" the masked âMimiâ spoke up.
Upon learning her identity and hearing that voice, his mind instantly created a vivid picture, and he curiously asked:
"Are you okay?"
Mimi: ???
"Are you crazy!"
In response, Su Qing calmly said repeatedly: "You okay? You okay? You okay?"
Immediately, the woman in front of him had murder in her eyes.
"You tell me, how do we solve this today!!"
Upon hearing this, Su Qing excitedly replied, "How about I sing for you âThe Offering of Loveâ!"
This one line completely broke Mimiâs defenses. She tore off her sunglasses and mask, yelling: "Are you okay!"
In an instant, a face that could only be seen on TV was right before him - it was Mimi!
Seeing her, Su Qing wasnât exactly thrilled, because with Tang Nan present, he knew this wouldnât be a simple situation. A public figure engaging in a duel with a regular person, especially a female artist, was implausible, but having an acquaintance involved made it possible.
"Hmm, itâs gotta be the real deal, nobody else has that vibe!" Su Qing chuckled, then shouted, "Nan Jie, stop hiding, come out, or Iâm gonna start yelling!"
At these words, someone emerged from behind a large tree nearby, also wearing sunglasses and a mask, and asked in a puzzled voice:
"How did you know I was here?"
"Yeah, how did you find out?" Mimi, seeing this, stopped pretending too, looked around, and quickly covered her face with the mask, curiously asked.
She was upset after getting tricked in the game, so Mimi added on WeChat to confront the opponent. But Tang Nan was right there, and since at the time her mom Zhou Hui used Su Qingâs picture for online dating, Tang Nan recognized it, so they plotted this out. But getting exposed wasnât expected.
What they didnât anticipate was, they were trash-talking another person.
"I only know you, Nan Jie, a public figure, who could get such a female artist for a duel. Besides Nan Jie, I canât think of anyone else. And by the way, I happen to be a police officer. Mimi, you okay?"
Both women: ...
That directly insinuated the whole entertainment industry.
"Get lost, you are the one whoâs not okay, so lame!" Tang Nan glared at him, spat angrily.
Beside her, Mimi also glared at him, pretending to frighten someone with a policeman identity.
Just then, a figure dashed over from afar, carrying a tree branch, yelling:
"Qingzi, donât be afraid, grandpaâs coming, let go of my brother, come at me instead!"
Everyone: ...
