Chapter 1273: End Game (13)
This man. He was full of nothing but dirty talk!
How intolerable!

She felt her face burning.
She lowered her head and buried her face in her hands, trying to calm her splitting headache.
That was too much.
–
Time crawled by, and soon it was noon. They finally got out of bed and left the hotel.
Fortunately the match was in the afternoon. Otherwise, they would never have made it.
The match started as scheduled.
CQ played within Group One as assigned. Because all the participants were among the best in the country, the game was no stroll in the park.

But eventually, they managed to win 2-1.
The CQ team members whooped in joy.
However PC Team, on the other hand, was listless and dispirited.
The match against SX Team yesterday seemed to have crushed their support, Bamboo.
In the morning’s match, Bamboo bowed out of the game to rest, making way for a new replacement to take over.
But the new replacement didn’t have as much chemistry with Prince, hence it was a difficult win for them. A few times, they managed to get to the opponent’s nexus, but repeatedly failed in their attacks.
Qiao Lian watched the matches with a heavy heart.
Because she was pregnant, she had to make more frequent trips to the restroom.
During the break, she once again got up to go to the restroom.
As she was about to enter the ladies’ toilet, she saw another scene at the men’s restroom.

Bamboo was standing there, looking at King with fury and saying,
You did that on purpose yesterday, didn’t you? I’ve done nothing against you. Why are you making personal attacks on me?

King then uttered a string of words in his native tongue.
The interpreter said,
King says it’s all about your mental strength. A person like you would never have made it to the competition in country H. He says… without you, PC Team can win the match too. Didn’t they just do so? Hence what he said wasn’t wrong. You’re an optional member of PC Team.

These shaming words flowed freely from King’s mouth.
Infuriated, Bamboo got up on his feet and pointed a finger at him, saying,
You’re speaking nonsense!

Although his hand didn’t touch King, the latter took a step back and said something in H language in a panicky tone. The interpreter said at once,
King says that you’re using physical force during the competition and he is going to report you! You should know what the punishment is if you’re caught fighting during a competition, right?

Bamboo was stunned and retorted,
I- I did not fight. I was merely—


That’s right. Fortunately King dodged in time. Otherwise, you would have hit him.

The interpreter spoke loudly so meanwhile, the commotion had caught the attention of passersby, who had gathered to watch.
Very quickly, the employees arrived and inquired about what had happened.

King exaggerated and the workers frowned, saying,
According to the rules, this would call for suspension for a season. Bamboo, what’s the matter with you?

Bamboo retreated a step and waved his hand back and forth, saying,
I didn’t, I didn’t.

King shook his head and put on a helpless expression. He said in halting Chinese,
You… were angry…

He meant that Bamboo had flown into a rage because they had targeted him in the game, so he had wanted to beat them up.
Yesterday’s match and Bamboo’s playing…
There were already angry comments on the internet, and now that he was being accused of using physical violence against King. Hence people found it convincing enough to believe.
Qiao Lian looked at Bamboo, who was standing there like a helpless child.
