Arc 2 Chapter 60: Gamer God, Please Don't Tease (17)
"It's precisely because he's my real brother that I would say such things." Luo Liyan couldn't help but feel sorry for the mother and son.
Listening to her words, it was clear that she had already been swayed by Lu Jingze, that little rascal. A Diamond 3 player was even dreaming of going pro? Even if they forced him in, he would end up sitting by the water dispenser for the rest of his life. In the end, he wouldn't even get a high school diploma. What would he do in the future?
"Your brother's life doesn't need you to worry about it. Just let him stay with you for now." the woman ordered not wanting to dwell on this issue any longer.
"No!" Luo Liyan categorically refused. "If he stays do you think I'll have a good time? Do you think I'll still be foolish enough to let you use him as a shield?"
"You unfilial daughter, that house is partly your brother's too. Why shouldn't he be allowed to stay?" The woman became hysterical when her plans were brutally exposed.
"All the money I spent and the property deed is in my name only. He has no relation to it." Luo Liyan rolled her eyes and hung up the phone, not bothering to continue the conversation.
Su Xun watched her as she walked away, his fists clenched tightly at his sides.
His once firm features turned colder and harsher, as black as ink.
He had always known that there wasn't a strong bond between Luo Liyan and her parents or her brother. However, before toda, he had never imagined that their preference for male over female would be taken to such an extreme.
If he had known sooner, he would have done everything in his power to prevent her from suffering so much.
Su Xun ached to gather the girl in his arms shielding her from these troublesome matters.
"Um... I'm sorry, you had to witness all that." Luo Liyan said looking at the man leaning against the elevator and flashing an embarrassed smile.
"It's okay. Kids can be especially mischievous." Su Xun replied, putting on an understanding expression. "What's your little brother up to this time?"
"He's crazy. Instead of studying properly, he wants to become a professional esports player." Luo Liyan complained.
"Esports?"
Luo Liyan seeing Su Xun's surprised expression thought he might not understand what she meant and quickly explained, "Do you know League of Legends? It's a team-based competitive game with national tournaments every year. That brat wants to drop out of school to join a professional team."
"I know League of Legends." Su Xun said with a chilly smile filled with mockery. "What's his rank?"
"Diamond 3. Haha... Isn't it ridiculous?" Luo Liyan thought about that little scoundrel who had been playing for three or four years and had never reached higher than this rank. Unable to contain her laughter, she teased "He can't even reach Master let alone think about winning championships."
"Well, he's not that good," Su Xun agreed.
However, that wasn't his primary concern.
"Esports player? Isn't that a bit far from a proper career?" He stroked his chin, glancing nervously at Luo Liyan who lowered her eyelids to hide the depth of her emotions shielding her gaze.
"Being an esports player is definitely a legitimate profession." Lu Liryan objected.
