Netizens were extremely excited to see Su Heng’s reply, and the number of comments once again reached a new high.

This time, however, the number of people being drawn in was noticeably larger.

**”Oh my god, did Sleeping reply to me? Is this really that silver killer who never acknowledges anyone in the game? Oh no, no, no, now it’s the platinum killer.”**

**”Come on, come on, those who want to solo with Sleeping start lining up!”**

**”Selling a solo spot on the first floor for 100 RMB.”**

**”Hahaha, with this personality, from today on, I’m no longer your fan for looks; I’m your die-hard fan!!!”**

Regardless of how excited the netizens were, the culprit had already gone to sleep early.

When Su Heng woke up the next day, it was already two in the afternoon.

Aside from Old Fish still gnawing on a chicken leg, everyone else had already fallen into the abyss of ranked games and live streams.

Su Heng looked at Old Fish’s shiny, grease-covered face and couldn’t help but laugh. Why was it that every time she woke up, she saw him relentlessly battling with food? She was very curious about how much he could eat.

When Old Fish saw Su Heng, he bounced over with a half-eaten chicken leg in his mouth, speaking with a muffled voice, “You’re awake, little Gege (sister). Are we still duo queueing?”

Su Heng took a moment to process what he meant and smiled as she replied, “Aren’t you playing with Wave?”

Seeing a chance, Old Fish quickly spat out the bone: “If I play with him, I can only play support; if I play with you, I can play mid lane!”

His tone was cheerful, and Wave couldn’t help but roll his eyes, while Sun He also started laughing.

Su Heng nodded, “Okay, I’ll go grab something to drink; we’ll duo queue once you’re done eating.”

Before she could step out, Zhou Lingxing, who was dismantling the enemy’s base, spoke lightly, “You better think it through before agreeing to him.”

Su Heng was taken aback: “Huh?”

At this point, Zhou Lingxing had already started attacking the enemy’s two turrets, his mouth not idle either: “What makes you trust a mid player who usually plays support?”

Old Fish puffed out his cheeks in protest, but Su Heng beat him to it: “Didn’t you guys say to trust your teammates?”

Zhou Lingxing was momentarily at a loss for words after being questioned by Su Heng and couldn’t respond for a while.

Old Fish was touched to the point of tears.

“Besides,” Su Heng continued, “It’s just a game, isn’t it?”

This successfully made Old Fish suppress the tears that were about to fall.

When the two of them finally settled down to duo queue, they were interrupted by the sudden opening of the training room door.

What caught everyone’s attention was a boy with golden hair, looking particularly lively with fair skin and a backpack.

It seemed that everyone in the room was not surprised by the boy’s appearance; they only glanced at him before returning to their own activities.

Su Heng observed the crowd’s reaction and quickly deduced the boy’s identity.

Wave appeared to be in a good mood and took the initiative to greet the blonde boy: “Yo, Little Ban.”

Little Ban smiled and waved back: “Yo!”

Seeing that no one else seemed inclined to talk, Little Ban walked over to Su Heng with a big smile on his face: “Hello, Sleeping sister, I’m your substitute jungler, Little Ban.”

At this point, Su Heng and Old Fish had already entered the Ban & Pick phase; the girl casually banned Fizz and turned to respond, “Nice to meet you, Su Heng.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Old Fish exaggeratedly screamed, “Sister, why did you ban my Fizz?!!! I even specially selected Fizz for the qualifiers!!!”

Su Heng’s hand trembled, trying to maintain her composure as she said, “I didn’t see it just now; pick someone else.”

Old Fish pouted, his eyes filled with grievance, and decisively picked Yasuo.

Su Heng originally felt a bit guilty, but seeing Old Fish’s clear vengeful choice of Yasuo, she raised an eyebrow and picked Master Yi. Since she chose to let loose, she decided to join him; she thought of it as practicing a champion.

Old Fish gasped in despair, realizing his fate.

He looked at Wave with misty eyes, trying to make him feel his current regret.

Wave glanced at him sideways, too lazy to even lift his eyelids, smirking and humming a little tune.

As if to say, “Serves you right for not duo queuing with me, now you have to duo with the sleepyhead!”

After watching the entire process, the little board couldn’t help but chuckle. He walked over to the computer at the edge and started playing ranked.

But he still felt a sense of mourning for Old Fish. He had heard long ago that this young lady was not to be underestimated, and now it seemed to be true.

In the end, Su Heng and Old Fish won the match. When the word “Victory” appeared on the screen, the look in Old Fish’s eyes when he looked at Su Heng could no longer be described as admiration; it was filled with respect.

This woman… is too shameless!!!

Stealing her own blue buff, taking her ADC’s red, and even trying to steal the enemy’s jungle.

She stayed in the middle lane the whole time; whenever a kill opportunity arose, Su Heng would immediately appear to snatch it, fully demonstrating the true meaning of ruthlessness.

He won, but he wasn’t happy about it.

On the other hand, Su Heng was exceptionally pleased. In her joy, she even developed a strong interest in playing Master Yi in the jungle.

Old Fish felt a chill looking at the enthusiasm radiating from Su Heng. Luckily, he wasn’t her enemy.

After this game ended, the little board teamed up with a few others for a five-player ranked match, while Su Heng began her long journey to deepen her hero pool.

It wasn’t until training time that Su Heng reluctantly turned off her computer and headed to the team’s spare practice room, leaving the space for the five-player competition.

*

At seven o’clock in the evening, Su Heng put on her mask and appeared in the live streaming room right on time.

The room was already filled with quite a few spectators who had come to see her.

As soon as Su Heng appeared on the screen, the comments exploded.

【Here she comes!!】

【I just bet that whoever sees Sleeping without a mask today can start transferring money】

【Take off the mask, take off the mask, take off the mask!!!】

The barrage of comments overwhelmed Su Heng, and she couldn’t help but frown, remaining motionless for a while.

Yet the comments didn’t stop:

【Why aren’t you speaking? Are you mute?】

【First-ever professional female player in LOL, witnessing history!】

【Is the young lady at the GI base? I want to see LING, show me LING!!】

Su Heng read through the comments seriously but still didn’t speak. She grabbed the mouse and opened the game.

Within half a minute of entering the game interface, friend requests started pouring in like snowflakes.

Su Heng didn’t even look; she took out her phone, opened Weibo, and typed carefully: “I want to solo ten, is anyone there?”

Those who knew about Su Heng’s Weibo post from last night got excited.

【What’s happening? Not joking, are you really going to solo??】

【Feels like I missed out on a billion!! Is it too late to leave a message now?】

There were also some who were confused.

【??? Is she going to solo against the viewers right away? What does that mean?】

【Even though I don’t know what’s happening, it looks like a good show.】

And some were still persistent in wanting to see Zhou Lingxing.

【Show me LING, show me LING, show me LING!!!】

Su Heng waited for two minutes but still didn’t see anyone respond to her “I want to solo ten,” so she became impatient: “There’s no one else at the base to show you. Is anyone there? If not, I’ll move on to the next.”

After another three minutes with no response, Su Heng’s fingertips gently slid across the screen as she spoke again: “Just a handsome guy, are you there?”

Aside from the onlookers who were enjoying the chaos, no one responded. She went through the names of over a dozen people, but no one accepted the challenge.

On the screen, Su Heng raised an eyebrow: “If I say I want to solo and you leave your names but don’t show up, that’s not my problem. Tomorrow will be the last chance, same time; those who know can pass the word.”

She paused for a moment and added, “My streaming hours are from Monday to Friday, 7 PM to 8 PM.” She glanced at the bottom right corner of the screen, it was 7:25 PM, and she fibbed: “Today’s time is almost up; see you tomorrow.”

Before the viewers in the live room could react, the screen went black.

Their hearts were nearly crushed—what the hell??

She had just said an hour was already quite short, and now she claimed it was time after only 25 minutes??

They had only heard of streamers extending their time; now there were streamers who were forcibly taking time off??

The angrier the viewers got, the more they clenched their fists and rushed to Su Heng’s Weibo to vent their frustrations, resulting in a storm of complaints.

Meanwhile, the one who had just disappointed tens of thousands of viewers turned off the streaming interface and started playing ranked.

Ignoring her teammates’ discontent, she locked in Master Yi in an instant.

Putting on her headphones, she disconnected from the world.

Su Heng wasn’t deliberately avoiding the stream; she just had unfinished business weighing on her mind, leaving her with no desire to stream.

She had only intended to tease Old Fish, but after a duo match with him, she had developed a keen interest in Master Yi. Compared to the easily provoked Lee Sin and Rek’Sai, she preferred a direct champion like Master Yi, who could slaughter without restraint.

Though she was assigned to the jungle role, Su Heng’s obsession with the damage dealer position had already been revealed when she asked Sun if she could play mid-lane.

How could she prove that she had been there and had fought if she couldn’t enjoy the game to the fullest, kill wantonly, and disturb the calm waters?

After a whole day of gaming, Su Heng was eagerly awaiting the match to start, unknowingly reflecting the enthusiasm in her eyes.

That was the same passion she had once seen in Sun’s eyes, a feeling she couldn’t understand back then but now wanted to explore.

The magic of time is that you never know when you will come to love something you once thought you would never like.
