Chapter 548: I said I would vent your anger for you.
Huo Shiqian patiently explained to Xia Chuyi, "What I mean is to make him lose second place."
"Lose second place?" Xia Chuyi still didn't quite understand and asked him, "Does Guo Jiacheng care about second place?"
She was very doubtful!
Then Huo Shiqian continued calmly, "In the past, the first place was my troop, and Guo Jiacheng usually got second."
"This time, I let him go play in the bottom ranks."
Huo Shiqian's expression was extraordinarily calm, as if he were discussing something inconsequential.
However, upon hearing this, Xia Chuyi's eyes widened in amazement, "Ah? Guo Jiacheng went from second place to the bottom ranks?"
She couldn't help but blink, looking at Huo Shiqian who remained completely unruffled.
That's right, losing a second place might not matter, but plummeting straight to the bottom... that would be a huge loss of face... no wonder Guo Jiacheng felt depressed.
It should be quite difficult, shouldn't it?
Thinking this, Xia Chuyi asked directly, "The process must have been quite difficult, right?"
Huo Shiqian said calmly, "Not difficult."
"In team battles, just knock him out first. With no leader, his team was bound to lose."
His tone became even more casual.
Xia Chuyi was silent.
Er, taking out the opponent's "commander" in a team battle is quite difficult, okay?!
Seeming to notice her confusion.
"During the competition, I signaled to Guo Jiacheng to challenge me to single combat," Huo Shiqian calmly explained to her. "I've said before, Guo Jiacheng, this man, is brainless and unorganized, very easy to fool."
"In single combat with me, I made him 'stand dead' on the spot – he couldn't return to the battlefield, and his team naturally lost."
Xia Chuyi: ...
So, Uncle Liberation Army lured the enemy with himself and then took the opportunity to "kill" Guo Jiacheng?
Isn't that a bit too brutal?
Being able to run into the battle to meet Uncle Liberation Army's "appointment" is partly because Huo Shiqian must have used plenty of "trickery" and partly because Guo Jiacheng was "deeply devoted" to Huo Shiqian... he's practically a dedicated "brain-dead fan."
But, is it really okay to treat your own "fan" like that?
Regarding this matter, Xia Chuyi could only say: Uncle Liberation Army, well done!
She reluctantly paid a silent tribute to Guo Jiacheng in her heart for three seconds.
"Um, that's good, very impressive," Xia Chuyi said with a smile brimming with satisfaction.
Seeing her react like this, Huo Shiqian watched her with a trace of laughter in his eyes and said, "I told you, I'd get even for you."
Upon hearing this, Xia Chuyi nodded vigorously, "Yes, Brother Shi Qian, you're really amazing!"
The smile in Huo Shiqian's eyes grew stronger, and he was about to continue speaking.
"Hm, thinking about it, it seems like most of the people who have come to pick a fight with me or tried to cheat me have all been stirred up by you, Brother Shi Qian." Suddenly, Xia Chuyi tilted her head and said teasingly to Huo Shiqian.
The smile in Uncle Liberation Army's eyes instantly froze.
Xia Chuyi's eyes curved into crescents, and she continued with a smile, "But, this just shows how outstanding our Uncle Liberation Army is!"
"That's why all sorts of people keep coming at you, one after another."
Huo Shiqian: ...
This girl, after spending more time together, has become even cheekier.
He looked towards Xia Chuyi in front of him.
All he could see was her eyes shimmering, smiling like a sly little fox.
Huo Shiqian shook his head and reached his hand toward her face.
Xia Chuyi reflexively stepped back to dodge, "Hey, he's not going to try pulling my face again, is he?"
