After Switching Bodies, the Mad Overbearing CEO Takes Over the Entertainment Industry-Chapter 77 - Absolute Coincidence

Chapter 77: Chapter 77 Absolute Coincidence

PC games and mobile games still have some differences.

Qin Jiangsheng didn’t have an account either, so he created a new one. He couldn’t be bothered to think of a name and just banged out a string of random characters, making it look just like an AI bot.

But Ji Tian took the sense of ceremony very seriously and pondered for a long time before coming up with a unique moniker, “Sweetheart Octopus”—don’t ask, if you do, it’s because she’s craving it.

Ji Weinan and Quan Jingyou had accounts and had even spent money on them, stuffed with gun skins and limited-edition outfits, looking dazzlingly bright and shiny.

Ji Weinan was a bit nervous and, looking at Ji Tian and Qin Jiangsheng, who were still adjusting their settings, he asked uncertainly and under his breath, “Ah Jing… are you sure this is reliable? Why do I feel like this is just a waste of time…”

Quan Jingyou gave him a reassuring look, “Relax, I’m very confident in their skills. Finally, to be carried by them again, this money is easy to earn. I hope there’ll be more tomorrow.”

...

Ji Weinan: “…”

It hadn’t even started yet, how was he already talking nonsense?

Ji Weinan didn’t have the slightest bit of confidence and even thought that later he would just try to survive as long as possible, get the team as far as they could manage, and at best cover the internet fee—it’s twelve yuan, enough to buy him twelve pork buns!

In just five short minutes, Ji Weinan’s palms began to sweat.

Ji Tian leaned over to check Qin Jiangsheng’s interface, “Let me see your settings.”

“Don’t you want to adjust it a bit? The key bindings you set are kind of difficult.”

Qin Jiangsheng looked at the screen expressionlessly, “No need.”

“Attention all players! Enter the battlefield.”

This was a custom room, accommodating twenty-five teams of players.

Wearing headphones, Ji Weinan commanded, “Let’s head somewhere more isolated… damn it, Sweet Sister, have you and Qin Jiangsheng lost your minds? Why did you jump straight into P City? That place is a chaotic scene!”

Ji Tian, focused on her screen, reassured, “It’s fine, we’ll win faster this way.”

Ji Weinan: “…”

You’ve got it backwards, it’s losing faster!

But since they had jumped, Ji Weinan could only grit his teeth and follow, with Quan Jingyou simply playing the role of lackey, calmly collecting gear for Ji Tian.

Not until he heard gunshots in the game did Ji Weinan’s character dash into a house—his screen displayed:

“Sweetheart Octopus” took out “Lonely Wolf” with a P18C pistol.

“feufnekbnfw123” eliminated “hungry fish” with a Crossbow.

Witnessing all this, Ji Weinan: “…”

Total fluke, absolutely a fluke.

And the following events made him question his life.

Entire P City was cleared out only by their group of four, under the lead of Ji Tian and Qin Jiangsheng.

Their names appeared on the screen so frequently that it eventually drew the attention of the hidden pros nearby, who drove over immediately to block their escape route.

“Qin Jiangsheng, southwest direction…”

Before she could finish, the person who had just popped up was taken out with a sniper shot by Qin Jiangsheng.

Tsk, such gaming talent and sharp sense of danger—isn’t it a waste not to go pro?

Quan Jingyou was so excited he couldn’t contain himself, cheering non-stop throughout the game.

By the end, even Qin Jiangsheng’s reference changed to “Brother Jiang.”

Ji Weinan still worried about Bai Tingyu and whispered a reminder, but Quan Jingyou, caught up in the excitement, retorted, “What do I care if he’s happy or not? I’m enjoying myself, and since he can’t join me for gaming, I want to hang out with them.”

After Ji Weinan’s failed reminder, he too decided to give in to the mood.

Indeed, hanging around Bai Tingyu wasn’t giving him any money or happiness; he was sick of putting up with it.

This round of gaming was simply a slaughtering session for the two of them, and the rest of the players were numbed; those who encountered Ji Tian and Qin Jiangsheng simply gave up struggling, their health points rapidly draining no matter how they tried to hide.

The entire round didn’t last over twenty minutes. At the fifteen-minute mark, Ji Tian stretched and announced, “Done! Off to collect the prize.”

The live chat went silent; even the usual critics were speechlessly stunned.

It wasn’t until they saw Ji Tian successfully claim her cash prize, waive the internet fee, and even deliberately ask the café owner to change into smaller bills, distributing thirty to each team and pocketing the last ten yuan, that comments started flowing again.

[This is like a small knife pulling along the backside, a real eye-opener…]

[She’s like a little cow going to the Arctic, impressively unstoppable…]

[It’s like wiping with gauze, I feel totally left out…]

[Watching their gameplay makes me feel like Cao Pi’s wife entering the vegetable garden—Zhen Ji picking vegetables…]

The chat filled with disbelief and self-doubt.

Ji Tian, a sweet girl.

Her gaming skills absolutely crushed everyone present.

Those moves, that awareness—it would be easy to assume she’d snuck out of a professional player’s training camp.

Those unable to find fault fell silent.

News about them surged to the top of the trending searches with a simple phrase.

#Ji Tian, Qin Jiangsheng, professional ‘Chicken Dinner’#

Below it was a photo of her and Qin Jiangsheng sitting together, gaming intently, their profiles clear.

Handsome and beautiful, their photo combination stood out.

And as soon as this news went out, it stirred up a huge commotion.

Many focused on Ji Tian, while a small portion also followed Qin Jiangsheng.

In a high-rise office with a panoramic view in Capital City, a man flicked through the screen with his fingertips, a laugh escaping his throat as he watched the news, and standing in front of him was none other than Qu Rong, sweating bullets.

The man set his phone down on the table, his fingers drumming lightly on the fine rosewood desk, emitting a crisp, pleasing sound: “Didn’t he say he was recently tied up and couldn’t get away? To my surprise, he’s become famous on a variety show, so Qu Rong, is Jiangsheng lying to me?”

Qu Rong swallowed, facing the man who showed a perfectly exquisite left half of his face, the other half covered with a silver mask. Looking closely, you could see a scar extending from the right side of his face to the upper neck; his right face was ruined.

Qu Rong chuckled nervously, “Ninth Young Master, how could it be? Young Master Qin is most loyal, and you treat him so well, nearly grooming him as your successor. It must be the Bai Family forcing him onto the show. After the show, I’ll find a way to get him out.”

Mo Jiu looked up, his delicate silver mask reflecting his left profile like a Banished Immortal, his pupils amber, a shade deeper than Qin Jiang’s tea-colored eyes, rimmed with a hint of black, always seemingly smiling.

Only those who truly knew him were aware that he had built his empire over a plethora of white bones and rivers of blood.

“Successor?” Mo Jiu couldn’t suppress another amused laugh, “Is Jiangsheng really my successor? I’ve invested everything to cultivate him to take over my burdens, but he’s not very obedient, is he? Are all teenagers around seventeen or eighteen that playful? Qu Rong, is there a way to make him focus? Would chopping off one of his hands be enough?”

Qu Rong instantly looked up in horror, defending Qin Jiangsheng, “Ninth Young Master, how could he work for you without his hands? The Qin Family isn’t down yet, Young Master Qin is a fine blade; if used well, he can strike at the Qin Family’s vulnerabilities. Without a male heir, who’s to say the Qin Family won’t come knocking, grooming Young Master Qin as their next successor? Please, think it over, be lenient with him this time.”
