Chapter 152: E-Sports
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
At this time, Lin Zixuan was unstoppable, defeating all those that challenged her.
The crowd’s emotions went through the process of astonishment, to admiration, then lastly to numbness. There wasn’t anyone in the entire server who could even manage to hit her avatar—she won all of them with full health. The only top player that was acknowledged by the whole server only managed to hit away 1/4 of her HP after trying with all his might...
After abusing the players in the whole server for an entire two hours, Lin Zixuan was finally satisfied.
The small lass stretched her waist, accidentally revealing her upper limb where the skin was white as snow and smooth as silk. She said, “Ah, I have finally satisfied my craving for gaming, hehe.”
The crowd’s eyes almost dropped to the floor.
Tang Muxin didn’t have the energy to lament Hong Dali for buying this small lass that he just met an entire 20,000 plus worth of equipment anymore. She only felt that Hong Dali was really amazing for being able to constantly meet with talents like this...
Whatever the case, regardless of how amazing this girl who practically dropped from the sky and how mysterious her identity was, it was fine as long as she wasn’t an enemy. As for the eye-catching skin complexion that she hid under her shirt and dirt, Hong Dali wasn’t concerned about that. He pretended not to see it and asked, “Hey, Zixuan, are you satisfied now? Let’s go?”
Although Lin Zixuan wasn’t so willing, she knew that she couldn’t stay any longer. As she stood up, she mumbled, “Sigh, if only I could play like this every day. If there is a competition for this game in the future, I will definitely join it! This will stop my dad from saying that I’m wasting my time.

Hong Dali instantly felt that he was in luck today. Not only did he meet this super-awesome lolita, through her, he also realized that E-Sports didn’t yet exist in this world—wasn’t it a good thing that it didn’t exist yet? He had money, he could host his own E-Sports competition!
Hong Dali laughed loudly and said, “I have decided! I shall host a competition! A competition on PKing in ‘The Draconic Continent Language’!”
“You want to host a competition?” Tang Muxin thought for a while and actually didn’t object. “I think this will work. With Zixuan here, there will definitely be many fierce battles in this competition. I believe that a lot of people will join!”
“Yup, let’s go now.” Hong Dali led the way out. “As for the details, we can discuss that after we have settled the more serious stuff!”
The group of them exited the Internet cafe. Hong Dali pulled on Lin Zixuan’s elbow and asked, “Hey, Zixuan, your body is so dirty, why not ask some sisters to bring you to a bath? It won’t do for you to be so unhygienic, you will grow louse on your body if you carry on like this.”
“No, there’s no need.” Hearing Hong Dali say that he wanted to ask people to bring her to a bath, Lin Zixuan was instantly frightened. Her small body subconsciously leaned back and said, “There’s no need for that. Big Brother, I’m already very satisfied and happy for your treat in both food and gaming, there really is no need for that.”
“Oh...” If it were someone else, they would definitely behave like some weird uncle trying to lure the lolita and trying to appease her. However, Hong Dali had never thought of that. He very straightforwardly snapped his fingers and commanded, “Take her away, find a public bath, and wash her up!”
Thus, regardless of how this lolita struggled, how could she resist against three muscular male lackeys?
She was immediately captured. She shouted for help the whole way, but Hong Dali was quite well-known around this district. Which passerby would dare to step in?
Tang Muxin was very meticulous, she soon discovered the white skin that was occasionally revealed. She secretly thought to herself, This Lin Zixuan, she said that she ran away from home because they didn’t allow her to play games. But, looking at her skin condition, she is obviously not someone from an ordinary family.
After stuffing the lolita into the car, Hong Dali and Tang Muxin also went in. The lolita’s tears flowed down continuously. “You guys are villains, big villains. I thought you guys were good people, but in the end, you guys still want to bring me back, sob...”
“Yes, we’re bringing you back.” Hong Dali strangely asked, “The question is, what are you crying for? It’s not like I’m cutting you up and feeding you to the tigers.” Saying so, he even raised Quentin into the air. “Quentin, give this little sister a smile!”
Thus, Quentin obediently bared her teeth at Lin Zixuan...
“What kind of nonsense are you saying!” Tang Muxin angrily kicked Hong Dali, causing him to bare his teeth in pain. Tang Muxin softly consoled Lin Zixuan, “Zixuan, don’t listen to his nonsense, he is just scaring you. Actually, we just want you to take a bath and dress you up prettily. We will not bully you, don’t worry.” She finally met a small lass that was younger than herself, Tang Muxin instantly an awareness of being a big sister. She was quite satisfied with this.
After all, Tang Muxin still looked very reliable. The lolita stopped crying and asked, “Really? You will not bully me?”
“Yup...” Tang Muxin thought for a while and decisively used her ultimate weapon. “Of course, it’s true. I’m his fiancée, you know? How would I let him mess around?”
Indeed, these few words were more useful than a thousand words. Very quickly, the lolita stopped being afraid. After all, she was not a fool. She believed that with his fiancée at his side, this Young Master definitely wouldn’t take advantage of her. Having thought of this, she felt much better and lightly nodded.
After arriving at the most prestigious public bath in the west fourth loop, the group of them majestically walked in. Hong Dali arranged for two female lackeys to bring Lin Zixuan in for a bath and sat down on the sofa with the others. Hong Dali softly asked Tang Muxin, “Xinxin, what do you think about this small lass? I have the impression that she isn’t from an ordinary family.”
Tang Muxin softly said, “I discovered that too. I noticed her skin condition just now—it’s obvious that she is the type that didn’t have to worry about food and living, and probably has someone send her to school and back. Her skin is very white and delicate, this can only happen due to a period of using top-grade cosmetics. Of course, I think that it’s more likely that she used milk for bathing, and does that frequently.”
“What the heck, you can even discover this?” Hong Dali put on an expression that said women were really scary. He said in fright, “Don’t tell me you were a private detective in your previous lifetime, that’s so scary!”
“Only people like you who don’t have a heart will not pay attention!” Tang Muxin angrily said, “What do you plan to do with this small lass?”
Hong Dali touched his chin and said, “Honestly speaking, I almost can’t bear to let her go home. Otherwise, I will not be able to host the E-Sports competition. But the problem is as you say, her family background should be quite prestigious. She will probably be discovered the moment she shows her face, and her parents will come for her. By that time, I will be in a difficult position.”
“Yup...” Tang Muxin knew what he said was very logical. She thought for a while and said, “I have not heard of another aristocratic Lin family in Tianjing City other than Lin Chuyin’s. By rights, with her current age, she shouldn’t be someone who ran here from another city. Nowadays, you can’t get anywhere far without an identity card. And her appearance is like that of a beggar, and her clothes are also tattered.” action
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSpeaking up to this point, Tang Muxin thought again and said, “Could it be that she is from a Lin family in this city that is not as prestigious? That might be possible.”
“Forget it.” Hong Dali was too lazy to trouble himself and directly instructed Ling Xiaoyi, “Ask someone to go and find out if there is any Lin family in the city that has filed a mission report with the Police. If there is, inform me immediately.”
“Noted.”
Tang Muxin was speechless. Speaking of which, sometimes, ideas were more useful the more stupid they were—since Lin Zixuan had run away from home, her family must have reported it to the Police. So, they would be able to find out once they checked with the Police...
After settling Lin Zixuan’s identity problem, next was the issue of the E-Sports competition that Hong Dali talked about.
Tang Muxin asked, “Dali, the E-Sports that you talked about, do you have any plans for it? I think that this may work out quite well if we do it properly.”
“Of course, I have. It’s simple.” Hong Dali sniffled and said, “Just spend money, that’s all. I’m a professional at squandering.”
“I know you are good at squandering, OK!?” Tang Muxin angrily said, “I’m asking you where to spend the money, not if you know how to spend money!”
“Is there a significant difference between where to spend money and how to spend money?” Hong Dali counted on his fingers. “They are both about spending money...” He quickly felt a death aura coming from beside him and decisively surrendered. “OK, OK, I will say it, I will say it. Yup, spending money is a skill. The first floor of our Chenhui Building is being used to raise the stray dogs now, and the second floor for the stray cats. Currently, there are professional people in charge of this.
“Then, on the eighth floor is the Zhong Dian headquarters, ninth is Caiwei Entertainment, 10th is that one, and there are still so many others. So, let’s do this. We shall use the third floor. Later, I will ask Xiaoyi to get... it should be able to fit 500 computers. After that, we will start recruiting passionate gamers and ask Lin Zixuan to be the coach. What do you think?”
The current Chenhui Building still had a lot of empty floors, there wasn’t any problem using one for this purpose.
“Yup, I think that’s fine. This time, you will have to spend quite a lot, right?” Tang Muxin thought for a while. “Then, what’s after that?”
“Five hundred computers, coupled with some other small stuff—three million should be enough.” Just as he was prepared to start on this project, Hong Dali suddenly remembered that his second Side Mission had not been completed yet and immediately changed his words. “Yup, let’s start with 50 computers and see the effect. Ask them to practice for a month or two, then see the results. There’s no rush for this.”
“Huh, how come you aren’t squandering this time?” To be honest, seeing Hong Dali suddenly not squandering as much as usual, Tang Muxin actually felt a bit weird. “Such a small scale doesn’t seem to be your style.”
Hong Dali’s head was full of sweat. “Ah, it’s nothing much. The main reason is that this isn’t something that can be done in a day or two, we have to take it slowly. Think about it, we have to start with advertising, right? Then, we have to recruit people, right? The computers also have to be tested after they are installed, right? I have to plan in advance for a much bigger scale of squandering in the future, right? But I have already thought of how this competition shall be done. We shall put up six gigantic monitors at the west fourth loop sports stadium. The competitors will be competing down there, and the audience will be watching on top. It will definitely be a hit!”
Tang Muxin: “...”
