I Can Do It

Chapter 43

Jian Rong’s original intention was to go back to sleep.

But after being blown by the wind for a bit in the entryway, he felt as energetic as an ox by the time he got back to his room. He couldn’t muster up any sleepiness after lying in vain on his bed for a few minutes. He wasn’t in the habit of gaming at eight in the morning, so he decided to simply prop himself up and play on his phone.

Then he saw that his main account on Weibo had received over a thousand private messages.

A portion of the messages were from Squid’s fans; they couldn’t out-flame those water friends, so they came to flame him. A miniscule portion were from his stream’s normal water friends, and they asked him how to do combos on Zed or what items to buy for LeBlanc when she was at an advantage or disadvantage.

Just from a glance, the remaining majority either consisted of “Dad misses you” or “I’ve been wanting to insult you, dumbass.” Jian Rong was too lazy to open them.

With one leg propped high over the other, Jian Rong looked through his messages for a long time before he posted that Weibo.

The day before Lunar New Year, most people were on break and at home, but there weren’t that many people surfing Weibo at eight a.m., so he was still able to somewhat read the comments. Jian Rong scrolled down the screen and replied randomly.

[You’ve retrieved your conscience from the trash can?]

[TTC ་ Soft: No, I’m about to resume streaming. I’m afraid that nobody will watch that day, so I’ve emerged to satisfy you all.]

[Are you even speaking a human language???]

[Dumbass, you should probably log out of Weibo, I bet that the LPL’s investigator employees have a special follow on your account. How unlucky would it be to get fined on Lunar New Year, don’t spread your bad luck to your dad.]

[Should be fine, didn’t he not get fined even with the way he shaded Squid before? A lot of pro players say “dumbass” “your mom” “I’m your dad” in streams without getting penalized for it. The reason he got fined last time was because he insulted that dumbass too fiercely.]

[Speaking of Squid, I kept refreshing Weibo throughout this dumbass’ entire debut night because I wanted to see if there would be news about TTC and Squid getting in a fight backstage. Later, I fell asleep full of disappointment.]

[It’s whatever if they fight, but with his physique, just who can he beat up? Dumbass darling, have you received the heightening insoles that Daddy shipped over yet? They’re not obvious if you wear them, I don’t even take it this seriously when I’m picking out underwear for my girlfriend.]

Jian Rong took a deep breath before he pulled up his bank account to check its balance. In his mind, he continuously told himself that he had to endure it no matter what.

One sentence was ten thousand yuan; insulting them equalled suffering a loss, insulting them equalled being fooled.

[TTC ་ Soft: Thank you. Send me your address, I’ll drop by to wish you a happy new year.]

[Dumbass, Dad went to the stadium for your debut and held up a banner, are you touched?]

[TTC ་ Soft: Let me transfer you some money to celebrate the new year, don’t come to future competitions anymore.]
