Chapter 41

Yu Sui opened his eyes when he heard the door open.

The corridor was less than two meters wide, and the two stood face to face. Shi Luos Adams apple bobbed. You:

Yu Sui pinched between his eyebrows. Sorry, I was too sleepy. This is for you.

Yu Sui stood up properly and took out the door card from his trousers pocket. The key to your room is in your bedside table. The cleaning aunt will clean the room at 5 pm every day. If you want to lock the door, remember to open the room for her around that time. The driver isnt available 24 hours. Zhou Huo will send the drivers contact details later. If you want to use the car, you can just call him. In case of an emergency and you cant contact the driver, you can contact any of the staff at the base. They all have licenses, including

Yu Sui paused and handed the door card to Shi Luo. Including me.

Shi Luos lips turned down slightly. Inwardly, he said, Using my boss as a chauffeur? How is that even appropriate?

Shi Luo took the card and asked quietly, Why Didnt you knock?

Yu Sui looked at Shi Luo. I was afraid you werent awake yet.

Shi Luo pursed his lips. In his heart, he couldnt help but silently say, Here he comes again.

No wonder so many young girls are pitted by slag men. This f*cking Even if he really were a slag man, you just couldnt hold out against him; especially this kind of slag man, who had zero self-awareness and whose thoughts were pure and simple.

Just knock on the door next time. Shi Luo said sullenly, Is there anything else?

Yu Sui put on his uniform jacket. A lot. Theres a lot of things that you need to sign. Lets head downstairs.

Shi Luo then thought of the matter about his transfer documents and the contract for the new team and so he followed Yu Sui downstairs.

Except for the two of them, everyone was already in the lounge on the first floor. They were all looking over their contracts. Once the two of them came in, Zhou Huo immediately handed Shi Luo his set of documents.

Shi Luo took the documents and sat down. Wheres the pen?

No need to hurry. Yu Sui sat down. He didnt have anything he needed to sign. At this moment, Yu Sui said to everyone, Look over your own contracts. In a while, Ill call in the legal department to come so they can answer any questions you might have.

Shi Luo frowned. He was about to say that they neednt go through all that trouble when Puppy, on the side, said, Evil, dont look at it as troublesome. Look through it carefully. Youre the one whos most in danger in this room.

Shi Luo looked at Puppy suspiciously. What do you mean?

Puppy glanced at Yu Sui for a moment. He made as if to say something but hesitated. He didnt dare spew out

poisonous milk

. Its nothing. I just blurted out whatever.

Shi Luo brows wrinkled. This time, he really didnt understand.

Chen Huo was trying to keep from laughing. Thats right, reallyno matter how you look at it, Shi Luo is the most in danger.

Yu Sui took out his mobile phone to send a WeChat to the legal staff. His lips moved slightly to give out a silent curse. He then explained, Back then, Ji Yanhan entered Team Knife Edge and after being pitted by the club, he ran away and built the FS Club. After three years, he then pitted me and now I myself have also built Free. The sprayers think weve got a very poisonous history and if history repeats itself&#k2026;

Yu Sui looked at Shi Luo. Its your turn next.

Old Qiao and Puppy couldnt help laughing out loud.

Zhou Huo looked at Shi Luo. His head was starting to hurt. Do you know? Your fans feel that this team, from its roots up to its Feng Shui is simply no good. They collectively sent a private message to our official Weibo, warning us not to dig a pit for you. If later on, you really do end up leaving and setting up your own team, the this f*cking programs really effective.

Shi Luo:

Chen Huo nodded and reminded him. Whether in terms of seniority, age or time period, the next one is you. So you must be sure to carefully look through your contract and prevent this nightmare from ever happening again. You must be sure to end our curse with you.

Shi Luo glanced at the contract and frowned. Im just signing for a season. What could happen?

Signing season after season is troublesome. My original suggestion was for you to sign two seasons directly, but the boss disagreed. Zhou Huo was helpless. It couldnt be helped. Lets just listen to the boss. Also, make sure to look through the broadcast contract. Except for the contract fee, everythings the same. All of them stipulate 30 live broadcasting hours per month. Let me say this first, I wasnt the one who set the contract fees to be different. Those were based on the prices given by the broadcasting platform Theyre basically reasonable. The profit sharing from the rewards are the same. Take a look at it yourselves. If you have any comments then let me know.

It was just a seasons contract. The terms of the contract was also very favorable to the player. This was the most lenient contract ever given to Shi Luo. He has no comments on it. After reading through it quickly, he grabbed a pen and signed.

Zhou Huo looked at the others. Anyone else? Any comments?

Chen Huo raised his hand while looking at his contract. Question, how is the live broadcast time calculated? Is it only live broadcasts on the gaming channel or all channels?

Its not the hours spent broadcasting on the gaming channel. Its for all hours you spent live broadcasting.

Chen Huo hadnt yet said anything but Zhou Huo already knew what he wanted to ask. He sighed and looked at Chen Huo. He said, annoyed, I know youre all the kind of player who still owe 29 hours by the end of the month. I understand. If youre not going to do a live broadcasting of you playing the game, even a live broadcast of you eating takeout is fine. As long you yourself is doing the broadcast, thats fine.

Chen Huo laughed mischievously. Nice.

But I beg you, please dont cram everything for the end of the month. I know that you dont actually need these live broadcasting fees and that youre not afraid of being fined for not reaching the required hours. The live broadcast platform wont dare to disturb you, but they will certainly complain to me. So, please. Im begging everyone, Zhou Huo asked again, Anyone else?

Puppy looked up and said very positively. Manager, Im not the kind of student who puts off his homework until the day before school starts. Can I broadcast on my mobile phone now? I think the fans would like to watch our team sign their contracts.

No! Zhou Huo didnt even have to think about it. Not to mention that I havent shampooed my hair for over a day, I havent finished discussing business with you guys yet.

Puppy shrugged. Fine. I guess were going to miss out on all those rewards from a certain couple of teammates fans.

Chen Huo wondered, Which couples fans? Mine and Yu Suis?

I think you need to take a long hard look at your popularity. Puppy ruffled Chen Huos head like he would a dog and sighed. Havent you noticed yet? Your popularity has dropped to third place. But its still much stronger than mine. So, thats something to be happy about, right?

Chen Huo stared at Shi Luo.

Im not as popular as Shi Luo now? Im a serious and earnest returnee player! Youre saying my popularity cant compare to his?

Shi Luo was starting to have a headache. Who the f*ck wanted to compete with Chen Huo on popularity?

Speaking of live broadcasting, let me remind everyone. There aresome sensitive topicsthat you need to take note of a bit. Zhou Huo thought for a while, For example, some details two years ago and what not. Weve already given our official statement on this. Right now, there arent a lot of netizens left who would dare insult you but we wouldnt want to start anything ourselves. Normally, live broadcasts should be for discussing something lighter, right, Yu Sui? You probably dont want the others mentioning about that, right?

Me? Yu Sui looked up and very nimbly pulled out the rug from under Zhou Huos feet. I certainly wouldnt take the initiative to mention it, but if the others want to mention it, I dont really care.

Shi Luo followed coldly, I wont make any guarantees. I dont care about the others either. Whatever the others want to say, they should say it. Itd be best of Ji Yanhan gets whipped all the time.

Zhou Huos head was hurting. None of you want to back down from this? Thencan they talk about anything?

Yu Sui himself was big-hearted and he didnt want to put too much restraints on his teammates. Whatever. I dont mind.

Thats that then. Zhou Huo looked around the meeting room and sighed. Youre all ruthless characters who spend year in and year out, standing where the struggle is fiercest anyway. What more have you got to be afraid of? Fine, we wont place any other restrictions within the club. Just follow the rules of the league, dont do anything that will hit that high-voltage wire. Youre all seasoned players. You know the rules of the league better than I do.

Normally, youre all very proficient at toeing the line when throwing out insults. Zhou Huo looked at Shi Luo and coughed. It was obvious who he meant. But try to curse as little as possible. 10,000 yuan for each cursing incident, I mean, whats wrong with saving this bit of money and using it for something else, right?

Shi Luo was criticized without being explicitly named. He silently bowed his head, continued signing and didnt refute.

He also had nothing he could refute. Even including the other regions, he was the one who racked up the most penalties for spraying players in the game. Someone who has to sign several penalty tickets every month had no right to quibble.

Let me think. What else Zhou Huo tried seriously to think back. He slapped the table. Yes, the staff at our base is basically complete. Though were still short of a psychological counselor. I havent had time to interview one yet. So it will be at least a month before the psychological counselor can come in and then

Chen Huo looked up and asked, Psychological counselor? Why are we hiring a psychological counselor?

Why shouldnt we? Zhou Huo looked at everyone dumbly. Didnt FS have a psychological counselor before?

Old Qiao shook his head. No.

Zhou Huo looked at Yu Sui with a surprise look. What about at Sacred Sword? There wasnt any psychological counselor there either?

There was. Yu Sui said, But I never looked for him. He wanted to talk to me a few times to give me some help, but I didnt accepted it, so I dont know exactly what it is he does.

Zhou Huo was shocked and turned to look at Shi Luo. What about IAC? I know IAC has one.

Shi Luo was still signing the documents and he didnt look up. They do.

Everyone turned to look at Shi Luo.

Shi Luo said vaguely, It was useless, at least for me.

Chen Huo was curious. What can he talk with you about? Whats the process? Can he hypnotize? Is hypnosis cool?

Shi Luo gave Chen Huo a dead-eyed stare. Chen Huo didnt dare provoke him. He shut up and continued to sign, but he was still curious.

Puppy and Old Qiao were also curious.

Shi Luo hadnt wanted to mention this part, but what could he do? He was the only person in the room who had actually received sports psychotherapy. He had to hold back his ire and say, I didnt like talking when I first joined IAC. Zhao Feng at first thought I was mute. After he found out that I wasnt, he thought that I needed psychotherapy.

Puppy slapped his thigh. When I first got to Europe, people there also thought I was mute, hai! That son of a b*tch, Ji Yanhan! Continue.

Shi Luo couldnt bear to recall. After the daily training matches, Zhao Feng, that stupid sh*t, would warn me against internet addiction. He forced me to keep an hour free to talk with this psychological counselor. I just didnt want to talk. They insisted on making me talk, like

Xuanzang

, that continued on for a whole month

Chen Huo shook his head again and again, sighing, That son of a b*tch, Ji Yanhan. Hes committed some evil sins. And then?

Shi Luo said coldly, They saw that I was turning from simply not wanting to talk to being outright rash and hot-headed. Zhao Feng was worried there would be an incidence of violence in the base, so he never asked me to go to that counselor again.

Look. Old Qiao commented, Its basically useless. That son of a b*tch, Ji Yanhan.

Zhou Huo was speechless and couldnt help spraying, Its just useless to you guys! This position is very important!

They all looked at Zhou Huo apathetically, refusal written across their faces. A team filled with wicked people wasnt easy to lead. Zhou Hu had no choice but to yield. Fine, meeting you all is my great fortune in life. Its so nice that everyone here is so mentally strong. We might as well save up on this expense.

Okay, thats about it. Zhou Huo took away the signed contracts one by one. According to normal practice, I would take this time to make some concluding remarks. Id like to thank Whisper for trusting me and bringing me on board. Although, this is more your home than mine, Ill act as host instead of guest and say Welcome, everyone.

Youve all worked hard these past few years. Zhou Huo looked around at everyone and said resolutely, No one has had it any easier than anyone else so lets not talk about that. Let me be even more shameless and be the voice of all your fans.

Zhou Huo accepted all the contracts and seriously said to them. These past two years hasnt been easy on you. Thank you to the great gods for sticking it out till now so that this story can have a new beginning. Thank you.

The contracts have been signed, and the new season will begin immediately. I ask that everyone go into a battle with a light pack and spare no effort in your fight.

Sigh, my tear glands have been acting up recently. Stop saying this. Chen Huo waved his hand. All the contracts have been signed, is there anything else?

Everythings done. Just let me tell you a little about your work schedule. Zhou Huo took out his mobile phone and opened the notepad. Now that the contract with the live broadcast platform has been signed. You should begin broadcasting in succession. Perfect timing. Its the start of the month. Lets start this month.

The four of you signed with the same platform. The platform was worried that if you all broadcasted at the same time on the same day, the server wouldnt be able to handle it and moreover, it would be a waste of traffic. So I have a suggestion for your first broadcast schedule. Youll go one after the other. This is only for your first broadcast. You can schedule your subsequent broadcasts whenever. Zhou Huo read from the notepad. First day is Yu Sui, second day is Puppy, third is Shi Luo and fourth is Chen Huo.

Zhou Huo looked to Yu Sui. Are you alright with taking the first day?

This wasnt his first live broadcast and Yu Sui didnt care either way. Its fine.

Zhou Huo nodded. While sending a message to the person in charge of the live broadcast platform, he said, voice completely level, If you feel that doing a broadcast by yourself is too boring, you can pair up with one of your teammates. This is your own business. If you want to pair up or not or who you pair up with, Im not setting any of that up.

Zhou Huo raised his eyes and looked at Yu Sui, Its up to you to look for whoever.

Shi Luos fingertips twitched. With a great deal of effort, he forced himself not to look at Yu Sui. He stood up and followed everyone out of the lounge.
