Chapter Text
10
It was a field day for every pro team.
A crisis.
They just received the news that God Ye was married.
Many hearts shattered.
11
Zhou Zekai was inconsolable. Instead of meeting his friend’s wife, he met his crush. His cowlick was unpresentable and limp, as if the life was sucked out of it. He had no words but his mind was full of thoughts. Such as, ‘make Fang Minghua go through hours of training’ and ‘the more time he spends training, the less time he has with his senior.’
Du Ming tried his best to comfort him as Jiang Botao decided to pull a disappearing act.
In some unknown location, Jiang Botao was on Baidu searching, ‘is it ok to steal a wife’ and ‘the repercussions of breaking a marriage’.
The rest of Samsara robotically greeted Ye Qiu, who was reintroduced as Ye Xiu, unsure of what to do.
Fang Minghua simply smiled, holding Ye Xiu by the waist, making Zhou Zekai frown.
“Fang…”
“Yes captain?”
“Training.”
No one wanted to mention that this was a petty move on his part, so they just kept quiet.
“Wait what?! Who am I going to heal? How can I practice alone?”
Ye Xiu only laughed, “With me. Even though you’re a cleric, I’ll let you come steal a boss with my party later.”
Du Ming only patted Zhou Zekai in the back, but didn’t say that it was his fault in the first place.
12
Tao Xuan, who was informed of the marriage via the grape vine and Excellent Era’s noisy gossips, suddenly thought back to when he called him poor. Just what about Ye Qiu was poor?! The man was married to a pro player who could possibly double Tao Xuan’s initial set price in the contract.
Chen Yehui was mumbling under his breath as he passed by. His words made him falter, “This is why he rejected me…”
13
Liu Hao was drinking his sorrows away, not caring of the consequences that would surely hit him the next day. Sun Xiang, who knew not to drink yet accompanied him, sat in silence as the waiter gave him a non-alcoholic beverage.
“Love troubles?” A random patron at the bar slide up to him, eying him in an uncomfortable manner.
“No.”
The man smiled, his hand reaching out to Sun Xiang, “Then would you like some company?”
“I would like an adult.” He stood up, leaving Liu Hao by himself.
14
“Why are you angry?” someone said incredulously.
“I can’t be angry?” Li Xuan scowled.
“Are you sure you’re a straight man?”
“I think our Li Xuan is about as straight as Samsara’s Fang Minghua at this point.”
15
It wasn’t any better for Tiny Herb. Some of the members even thought Wang Jiexi was going crazy. Why else would he be calling them his children? Who was their mother? God Ye? Did he drink something questionable?
“Your mother ran away.” His voice was low and his spirits even lower.
“C-captain?”
Wang Jiexi just continued on, regardless of Gao Yingjie and Qiao Yifan’s confusion, “He left us behind. Ran off with a wild man. Married.”
They both backed away as the man turned to his plants. Wang Jiexi cuddled one of them.
“That’s a cactus! Captain-”
Qiao Yifan contemplated on transfers. He heard that Misty Rain was a good, sound group of people with a level-headed leader.
16
Dai Yanqi patted Xiao Shiqin’s shoulder, “Sorry captain, but it looks like your couple pairing with Ye Qiu wasn’t meant to be. It’s not canon.”
17
“-Old Ye was messing with my heart! How could he even dare do this? When I visited him at the cafe in H City, I thought we had something. Why else would he call me? Samsara is horrible! I knew that they were just rotten to the core, stealing him away-”
“-Next time, when I go against Samsara’s Laughing Song, I’ll PKPKPK him to death, 1V1-”
Song Xiao wanted to say that it wouldn’t be PVP anymore, it would just be bullying. But with the murderous look in Yu Wenzhou’s eyes and Shaotian’s constant swinging of a pillow, mimicking the act of suffocating a person to death, he didn’t want to take his chances on mentioning anything that would get him the ire of his captain and vice captain.
“-What was his name? Fang Ming? Ming Hua? Fang Hua?? He’s dead when I see him on court. Say, when we battle against Samsara, make sure to target their cleric first.”
Yu Wenzhou only nodded, writing something down in his notebook.
“And another thing, why is he with a cleric ? I bet he was coerced into marrying him. How pathetic-”
18
Chu Yunxiu was sitting in her room as Su Mucheng barged in with tears in her eyes.
“How could he keep this a secret from me? My brother, brother in heaven-I’m sorry I couldn’t keep him pure, he’s too good for the world-”
She was the one that wanted to cry. Why was she subjected to this? All Chu Yunxiu did was call her to see if she wanted to watch a drama together.
19
“Captain’s eyebrows! Look at how angry he is! I’m shaking… what happened?” Someone whispered, only to be greeted by Han Wenqing himself, who just got back from the gym after an intense workout session.
“I-I’m sorry!” A wallet was thrown at his face, hitting him square in the jaw.
20
Ye Xiu sat on a nearby chair while watching Fang Minghua get visually scolded by Zhou Zekai. He used no words, only looking at him like he wanted the man to disappear.
“Your team is very lively.”
Du Ming just whimpered, resisting the urge to slap a hand to his face.

“Don’t you think there’s something affecting him?”
“He seems normal to me.”
“Vice Captain Zhang is eating in the wrong order. ”
“How-how do you even notice something like that?”
“I’ve trained myself to know everything about Captain Han and Vice Captain Zhang. Only a true Tyranny fan would pick up on something like this.”
“I think… the vice captain should get a restraining order against you.”
Extra 2
“Your luck is so bad that it’s affecting everyone else.” That was how Sun Zheping greeted Zhang Jiale.
“...”
