Chapter 1368: Chapter 1368: Didn’t Like Him
“If you don’t like him, why are you reacting so strongly?” Meng Shuqing looked at Jian Xing with a half-smile.
Jian Xing cleared his throat, his lips moved, stammering as he explained, “I just think, just think it’s not easy for him.”
“Oh~”
Meng Shuqing dragged out the tone, didn’t say more on this, but changed the topic, saying, “Xingxing, are you hiding from someone recently?”
Jian Xing’s eyes flickered, not expecting that just after one encounter, Meng Shuqing noticed.
She was at a loss for words inside, not knowing how to tell Meng Shuqing about her complicated family.
“Xingxing, if there’s any trouble or if you’re unhappy about something, you can talk to me. I can be your trash can, help you dump all the unhappy things.”
Meng Shuqing spoke gently, knowing that everyone has their own secrets.
“Chenchen, I…” Jian Xing had just opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but didn’t know where to start.
Meng Shuqing smiled lightly and said, “Say it the next time you feel like talking, how about we play a game?”
“Sure!”
Jian Xing nodded.
When not feeling happy, playing a game is the most stress-relieving.

“Our biggest rival actually disbanded just before the competition.” When Zhao Feng got this news, he was so shocked he didn’t know what to say.
Xu Fang frowned, saying, “Crazy, who do you think that Qing Kong really is? And that God, his account isn’t even top tier, but don’t you find his moves kind of familiar?”
Xu Fang, in front of familiar people, talked confidently and freely.
Zhao Feng, with his typically square face, smiled and said, “Qing Kong is in the top ten on the rankings. Speaking of which, it’s curious how we know each other.”
Zhao Feng met Qing Kong Wanli a few years back in a random team-up.
Afterwards, Zhao Feng always wanted to recruit Qing Kong into the team, but Qing Kong always refused, though they often played games together.
Getting Qing Kong’s phone number was also an unexpected thing. During an online match, they were short of people and asked Qing Kong to help. Qing Kong happened to be free and joined them.
That was the first time Zhao Feng won a championship.
Zhao Feng wanted Qing Kong in the team even more, but Qing Kong still refused, though said if there were more online competitions and she was free, they could call her.
“Qing Kong’s family must be doing well. I was just hoping for a tiny chance she’d help.” Zhao Feng had made that call with a one-in-a-million chance in mind, yet Qing Kong agreed.
Even more surprising, the real Qing Kong turned out to be a great beauty.
You see, Zhao Feng and Xu Fang had privately speculated why Qing Kong never shows up in real life games, perhaps due to not being very good-looking.
But now it seems, Qing Kong is too beautiful.
“Crazy, thank you all for playing this match with me,” Xu Fang just opened his mouth.
Zhao Feng interrupted, “Xu Fang, why even mention this between us? But for Qing Kong and them, after the competition, we must thank them properly.”
“Speaking of which, how could Gao Hu possibly disband the team?” Zhao Feng just couldn’t make sense of it.
“Can’t understand.” Xu Fang shook his head, having no idea, no clue, and even further not understanding.
Right now, all he could think of is hoping his mother’s illness gets cured. She’s the only family left for him in this world.
When the team got together, Zhao Feng mentioned this news. Without Gao Hu’s team, they were one step closer to the championship.
“The Gao Family is in trouble.”
In the team, except for Qing Kong and Xingchen, a girl, Ya Tou, spoke while biting on a lollipop, “Don’t know what happened, but Gao Hu probably can’t be the little tyrant like before. Without Gao Hu’s money, how could those people in his team still help him compete?”
Meng Shuqing lowered her gaze and didn’t continue this topic. With the Gao Family in trouble, she thought for sure Xiao Bai had a hand in this, yet she couldn’t be happier.
If the Gao Family hadn’t done something they shouldn’t have, they wouldn’t have fallen so fast.
Moreover, Gao Hu is so disgusting.
After the team gathering, Meng Shuqing found Zhao Feng alone, asking, “Who else knows about me joining the team apart from you guys?”
“Quite a few people know.” Zhao Feng scratched his head, looking confused, asking, “Qing Kong, can’t we say it?”
During matches, team members would know. Zhao Feng didn’t deliberately keep it secret. He said, “Besides, when we filled out the forms, many people knew.”
“Oh~”
Meng Shuqing didn’t think much of it. Since many people knew, it wasn’t really a secret.

With the arrival of winter vacation, the competition time is drawing nearer.
Meng Shuqing spent most of her time with the team, having thought they were good before, the few members she knew were all quite nice. But after joining the team, she felt they were like a big family; everyone got along very smoothly.
An Bai, as a reserve player, occasionally came, not staying often. But each time, An Bai either brought desserts or takeout from the Red Bean Restaurant, and An Bai didn’t try to keep a low profile. Each time he came, he drove a different luxury car, be it Bentley, Maybach, or a Cayenne.
Coupled with An Bai’s aura of authority and the suit with no brand logo, Zhao Feng and they knew very well that An Bai definitely belonged to the wealthy!
And Meng Shuqing was An Bai’s girlfriend.
Although never publicly acknowledged, Zhao Feng and the others assumed they were together. The male teammates consciously kept their distance from Meng Shuqing, aside from gaming, showing no behavior out of line.
Just before the competition started, An Bai booked an entire floor at the Han Tang Hotel, providing convenient accommodation for the team members, with everyone staying in a deluxe room, and the food being special orders from the restaurant.
Zhao Feng joked, “Qing Kong, we’re benefiting from your light here, never thought we’d get to stay in such a nice hotel.”
In the past, during competitions, the hotel’s quality prepared by the hosts was fine, but it fell short compared to this one.
“Tomorrow’s the competition, let’s eat well, drink well, and sleep well, to compete in our best spirits.” Meng Shuqing smiled, diverting the topic without dwelling too much on it, saying, “Xiao Bai always ensures he’s well taken care of, so you all just rest easy.”
