Chapter 161: Chapter 125: That Guy Is Finally Getting Down to Business (Double-Length, Please Vote Monthly)

Dou Ying had already started suspecting earlier, but after Li Yang went to the Capital City, Xue Ning’s account IP didn’t appear. At that time, she dismissed the suspicion, thinking she was overthinking.

Of course, during that month, Xue Ning’s account also didn’t have any transactions.

The formal transactions started six days ago when the IP address was updated.

Coincidentally, Li Yang was competing in South Korea, and Xue Ning’s account appeared in South Korea.

Of course, this alone couldn’t confirm anything; more coincidences were needed as evidence.

What if Xue Ning’s boyfriend went to South Korea? Or maybe Xue Ning asked him to take care of Li Yang, considering Li Yang had never been abroad.

Anything is possible, and what I know now isn’t enough to prove anything.

She didn’t understand esports, or even know the game.

But from the online buzz and the reaction from Jing University, it seemed like Li Yang was really going to make his name.

In the live broadcast, Li Yang kept pointing to the Guanghua School of Management emblem on his shoulder, which was creating momentum for himself.

He wanted everyone to know that he was not only a world champion, not only the most outstanding player, but also a top student at Jing University!

Each halo was an enhancement for him.

If the world champion was only admired within the gaming circle, then the identity of a top student at Jing University would cover the entire nation.

There are world champions every year, but it’s hard to find another person with the same or even matching label like his in the world.

...

Li Likun was in the internet cafe, watched the game, and asked the person next to him, "What hero did Li Yang use in the last game?"

"Old man, that was Yasuo."

"Great, I’m going to practice Yasuo right away!"

...

The champion is confirmed!

Many things that were uncertain before are now certain.

For instance, the promotional banner Jing University had prepared.

Initially, it was only a simple announcement, but now the banner could be put up. This was a good opportunity for external publicity.

The related interviews must also be properly arranged.

Edzhu was holding Li Yang’s phone. Since the championship was confirmed half an hour ago, the phone in his pocket hadn’t stopped buzzing, causing his leg to go numb.

He only regretted not being a woman because the vibration was useless.

Unfortunately, Li Yang hadn’t had the time to return to the backstage yet, as there were a bunch of interviews waiting for him in the front.

Bai Qing’s call came through on his phone.

"When are you coming back home?"

This question stumped Edzhu because they hadn’t booked a flight yet.

If they lost, they would’ve returned the day after tomorrow.

But now that they had won, shouldn’t they let the players enjoy themselves here for a couple more days?

After all, all the players were exhausted from the past half month.

He also knew Bai Qing didn’t care about others; she wanted to know when Li Yang would return.

"I’ll ask Li Yang when he’s done with the interviews and let you know when he’s coming back."

"Remember to inform me first thing."

"Sure, no problem. Whether Li Yang competes next year or not, I owe you this time."

With the championship secured, the club’s value would increase significantly, and for Edzhu, there was definitely big money to be made.

"No need to talk about owing me, just convert it into a bonus, maybe five million?"

Edward: "..."

That’s five million in cash.

How much could the club’s value increase? Without Li Yang, it would just have a bit of foundation.

If Li Yang were willing to renew his contract, he would be willing to give even ten million, and even bring in some investment to push it to a twenty million annual salary without fear.

In any case, with Li Yang’s fame, signing him would surely not be a loss.

"Alright, I’ll definitely respect your wishes."

"It’s my husband’s wishes!"

Bai Qing emphasized, leaving Edzhu speechless.

Li Yang was indeed excellent, but wasn’t Bai Qing also no small figure? Worth billions, young, and beautiful, why act so humbly?

Finally, the interviews were almost over, and Edzhu went over to take photos with the team and touched the championship trophy. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

He also loved games, and the entire club had invested tens of millions.

With this honor, the lost money could surely be recovered, and there’d even be surplus.

"Li Yang, congratulations! Thank you for bringing us a championship trophy."

Edzhu excitedly approached to shake hands with Li Yang.

Li Yang smiled and responded, "It’s also because of the boss’s trust in me; otherwise, I wouldn’t have been trusted to host the game without having played a match."

Indeed, it was trust. Of course, the main reason was that Bai Qing had previously found excuses to invest money, registering him as a professional player, plus his performance was indeed excellent.

Three rounds of competition, not a single game lost, this was also the result of Li Yang’s full effort.

"Hahaha..."

Edzhu handed the phone back to Li Yang, "Go take a rest in the lounge for a while, we’ll have dinner together later."

"Okay, then please help me book a flight for tomorrow, I have to rush back to classes."

"Huh? Leaving so soon?"

Edzhu thought Li Yang would at least enjoy the glory, as there will be many subsequent money-making projects.

Even if they are not huge sums.

"Yes, I can’t afford to miss the classes."

Strictly speaking, Li Yang’s contract with the EDG Club had ended.

His real earnings came from the competition prize and skin shares.

As for whether he would sign streaming or endorsement contracts later, it was his own business, and had nothing to do with the club.

Edzhu said, "Let’s talk after dinner?"

"No problem."

It was necessary to talk anyway.

Li Yang returned to the lounge and found the phone’s battery was already below 30%, though it was fully charged before the match.
