Chapter 101 Big Brother Picks Up Food, You Turn the Table? Beat Up Kim Jung-soo! [Seeking Monthly Tickets!]
T1 Base.
After defeating IG, and in a ruthless and brutal way, a simple victory celebration began at the base.
It has to be said that although Zheng Huirun is a pragmatic old man, he is truly willing to make sacrifices if you can bring him benefits.
The dishes Lee Doo-hwan ordered at the end of the second game of today's match against IG had already been prepared.
And to make sure Lee Doo-hwan didn't have enough to eat, they were all served in extra-large portions!
"Doo-hwan, try this braised pork ribs and see how it tastes. If you don't like it, give it to them, and I'll have the kitchen make another batch!"
The dinner table.
Lee Doo-hwan remained completely unmoved by Jung Hoi-yoon's attempts to curry favor.
Who would appreciate such useless little favors? It's like they can't even afford ribs!
"You all eat too, what are you all standing around for?" At this moment, Lee Sang-hyeok also spoke up with a smile.
It's clear that he was in a good mood after winning today's match.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, no one picked up their chopsticks.
Even Coach Kim Jung-soo, who was about to pick up his chopsticks to eat, froze in mid-air.
He looked to the left, then to the right, and finally silently put down his chopsticks.
"What's going on? Didn't you hear what Sang-hyeok said? Hurry up and eat! What are you all standing there for?!"
It wasn't until Lee Doo-hwan spoke that everyone started eating.
Of course, everyone was very well-behaved and followed the rules. They ate very quietly and only ate the dishes in front of them, not daring to turn the table.
Perhaps it was because Kim Jung-soo had been behaving himself during this period, or perhaps Lee Doo-hwan was too lazy to cause him any trouble.
This seemed to have caused him to forget the pain of his past mistakes, and as Lee Doo-hwan was about to pick up some food, he casually turned the table.
Although Kim Jung-soo reacted quickly, realizing something was wrong the moment he started spinning, he quickly spun back.
But it's still a bit late!
The boss is picking up food, and you're turning the table? What's going on here?!
Lee Doo-hwan smiled, gently put down his chopsticks, and then slowly began to speak.
"It's rare that we won so cleanly and decisively today, a truly exhilarating victory!"
How about I put on a show for you?
Upon hearing this, no one else dared to speak.
Having spent time together, they had gotten to know a little bit about the rules of the "T1 Ghost Stories Club".
Especially at times like these, one must be extra careful, particularly when Lee Doo-hwan appears harmless.
Because you never know if he'll change his attitude or grab a baseball bat at you in the next second.
So no one spoke, except for Gu Shengbin, who was having a drink with the referee and had a lisp, who asked a question.
"Hey, what show is it?"
"Friendly fighting match!!!" Lee Doo-hwan said as he stood up from his chair.
Immediately afterwards, he rubbed his fists and muttered something as he walked toward Kim Jung-soo.
"I think that since we are a team, we shouldn't be too distant."
Your behavior makes me feel a serious sense of disconnect, and it doesn't feel like a team at all!
So I've decided to become one of you guys!
As he spoke, he had already walked up to Kim Jung-soo.
Seeing Lee Doo-hwan rubbing his fists and looking at him with an unfriendly expression, Kim Jung-soo panicked.
He swallowed hard, looking flustered, and stammered as he spoke.
"Lee—Lee Doo-hwan, what—what do you want to do!?"
"What?" Lee Doo-hwan smiled slightly. "What do you think I could do? Of course, I'd do you!!!"
After saying that, Lee Doo-hwan raised his fist and punched Kim Jung-soo directly in the forehead. "Bang!!!"
One punch sent Kim Jung-soo sprawling from his chair to the ground.
This scene left the younger generation standing nearby dumbfounded!
Wait a minute!!!
Didn't Doo-hwan say he would lower his stance and get along with us?
Why does this "getting along like one" thing seem a little different from what we understand?
"I'll teach you a lesson for not knowing the rules! You dared to turn the table when I was picking up food!"
"Jing-soo, I think you're the kind of kid who'll get into trouble if you don't discipline him for three days!"
"And what did you just call me?!"
"Who the hell do you think you are to call Lee Doo-hwan?!"
As he spoke, Lee Doo-hwan's fists rained down on Kim Jung-soo.
The celebratory banquet, which was supposed to be going well, suddenly turned into this, leaving Jung Hoi-yoon dumbfounded. He looked at Lee Doo-hwan, who was frantically swinging his fists, and then at Kim Jung-soo, who was covering his head with his hands, unable to fight back, and could only roll on the ground and howl in pain.
As the manager, he quickly spoke up to stop him.
"Stop fighting!!!"
About five minutes later, Lee Doo-hwan returned to his seat and sat down.
Looking at the stunned junior who seemed somewhat shocked, he slowly spoke.
"What are you all standing there for? Hurry up and eat!"
One sentence made Li Zhouxuan and his teammates quickly look away and obediently start eating.
As for Kim Jung-soo, he slowly got up from the ground, holding onto a chair.
You know what, sometimes having too much fat on your body isn't without its downsides.
At least Kim Jung-soo withstood Lee Doo-hwan's warm greetings and was able to get up on his own. If it were someone else, they probably would have been lying on the ground for ages before they could get up.
Seeing Kim Jung-soo's miserable state, Lee Sang-hyeok, sitting next to Lee Doo-hwan, couldn't help but whisper something.
"Doo-hwan, aren't you afraid of hurting him?"
"It's alright, I know what I'm doing." Lee Doo-hwan smiled, looking very confident and composed.
After all, this is a system reward, it's definitely the best of the best!
After saying that, he looked at Kim Jung-soo, who had gotten up from the ground, sat back down in his chair, and was adjusting his suit.
"Jung-soo, didn't you see there's no water in your cup?"
Kim Jung-soo:
T
He was about to explode with anger when he saw Lee Doo-hwan staring at him with an innocent look on his face.
However, the pain emanating from his body reminded him that if he didn't behave, the consequences would be even worse!
So he had no choice but to drag his still aching body to Lee Doo-hwan and pour him a glass of water.
Lee Doo-hwan didn't say anything, he just waved his hand gently.
Kim Jung-soo took a deep breath and remained silent, but he did not return to his seat.
I just embarrassed myself again in front of everyone —
Wait a minute!?
Why did I say "again"?
Thinking of this, Kim Jung-soo tried to calm himself down before leaving the room.
"Well, I'll go out and see what's going on!" After seeing this, Jung Hoi-yoon told Lee Doo-hwan and then went out as well.
As Jung Hoi-yoon walked out of the cafeteria and closed the door behind her, before she could even say a few words of comfort, she heard Kim Jung-soo start cursing.
"If it weren't for the fact that this is a crucial moment in the MSC China-Korea showdown, would I be letting him off so easily!?"
Jung Hoi-yoon: "???"
He glanced at Kim Jung-soo, whose face was flushed and whose slap mark hadn't faded yet, and he immediately went into a state of mental breakdown.
If I'm not mistaken, you did fight back just now, but you ended up getting beaten even worse, didn't you?
However, Jung Hoi-yoon wasn't stupid, so naturally he couldn't expose her on the spot.
Since the other party values face, then I should naturally give them that face.
"I know, I know you're giving in to him for the sake of our team!"
"Right, that's what you think!" Upon hearing someone agree with him, Kim Jung-soo immediately began to pour out his grievances.
The main problem is that if he doesn't vent to someone, he probably won't be able to sleep tonight.
"If it weren't for the sake of our club and the MSC finals, would I have avoided his sharp edge?"
With his small frame, I could take on two of him by myself!
As he spoke, tears welled up in Kim Jung-soo's eyes, falling like raindrops.
There's no way around it; after all, he was born in 1985 and is now thirty-five years old.
At 35 years old, and a former S-level champion coach, with his age, experience, and honors, he's like a crab in the LCK, able to roam freely!
Even the most respected figures in LCK in Ambition's eyes would have to treat him with utmost respect.
But what about now?
Instead of becoming the undisputed leader in the team, he was treated like a grandson by a junior and constantly scolded!
"What right does he have?!" Kim Jung-soo wiped away his tears, seemingly filled with grievances.
"I'm so much older than him, it's one thing for him to disrespect me, but he actually hit me!"
He didn't even bother to find out who in the entire LCK would dare to lay a finger on Kim Jeong-soo!
"He's Chinese, so what?!"
At this point, Kim Jung-soo choked up twice before continuing.
"Of course, I'm not afraid of the manager. I'm just doing this for our club and for our team to achieve better results!"
What kind of skill is it to fight amongst yourself? Winning honors and championships in world competitions, that's real skill.
Manager, do you think what I said makes sense?
"Yes, yes, you're right."
I know you're mainly doing this for the team, so you don't dare to stoop to his level. Otherwise, you definitely wouldn't have let him off the hook!
Jung Hoi-yoon watched Kim Jung-soo, who was shedding small pearls while saying that he wasn't afraid, and I didn't say anything to expose him.
After all, he knew what kind of person Kim Jung-soo was; otherwise, he wouldn't have started conducting compliance tests on those people when he first joined T1 last year.
It's only because Lee Doo-hwan returned that things have changed; otherwise, the younger members of the team would all have to listen to him obediently.
"Are you still going back for dinner?" Jung Hoi-yoon asked after Kim Jung-soo's emotions had stabilized.
Unexpectedly, Kim Jung-soo reacted very strongly.
"Why would I go back? Go back and fight him again?"
Since there is conflict within the team, and we are a team, someone has to back down in order to resolve this conflict!
He's still young and doesn't understand things, but I can't be as immature as him. I need to consider the bigger picture; everything is for the club, for the team to achieve better results!
Jung Hoi-yoon almost burst out laughing at Kim Jung-soo's serious nonsense, but thankfully he had received rigorous training and managed to hold back at the crucial moment.
After suppressing a laugh, Jung Hoi-yoon offered Kim Jung-soo a way out.
"Alright, you're probably tired from today's match, so you should go back and rest!"
"Mm." Kim Jung-soo nodded, then reached out and wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes.
However, just as Zheng Huirun turned to enter the cafeteria, he called out to stop him.
"Um, manager, after you go in, please don't let Brother Douhuan know what I just said."
If he finds out, it will affect the unity of our team again!
"I know, I know, don't worry, I definitely won't tell him!" Jung Hui-yoon replied twice, then pushed open the cafeteria door and went inside, leaving Kim Jung-soo standing alone in the empty corridor, standing there blankly.
"Where are the others?"
Seeing that only one person had returned after the two who had gone out, Lee Doo-hwan asked with a smile.
"He said he wasn't hungry, but a little tired, so he went back to his dorm first," Zheng Huirun replied with a smile after sitting down.
"I've been hitting him for so long, and I haven't even said I'm tired yet, but he's already saying he's tired!"
Lee Doo-hwan smiled, then said nothing more and continued eating.
A simple celebration banquet quickly came to an end!
Gu Shengbin, who was drinking happily with the referee, was shouting that he would share both good times and bad.
Lee Doo-hwan waved his hand, signaling Lee Joo-hyun and Kim Jang-dong to help them back to their dorm.
Faced with Lee Doo-hwan's order, the clearly tamed mid-laner agreed readily, his movements incredibly swift.
"Don't worry, Doo-hwan hyung, I'll definitely take good care of Sung-bin hyung!"
It was already quite late. Lee Doo-hwan glanced at Lee Sang-hyeok sitting in a chair and greeted him.
"Let's go back to our rooms too."
"There's something odd about what you're saying!" Lee Sang-hyeok frowned.
Upon hearing this, Lee Doo-hwan's lips twitched slightly.
"You can reply or not, it's up to you!"
The two returned to their room one after the other. After washing up, Lee Doo-hwan lay on the bed and, having nothing to do, took out his phone to see if there was anything funny to watch.
Lee Sang-hyeok, on the other hand, picked up a book, sat down in a chair, and began reading with great interest.
"Sang-hyeok, what are you doing here?"
"Read books and learn Chinese on your own. You know, I have many fans of Chinese culture."
If I were to meet them in person, I feel I shouldn't use Korean; I should communicate with them in Chinese.
Upon hearing this, Lee Doo-hwan immediately smiled.
This reminded him of a scene from a couple of years ago when he was on IG, where a certain world's best top laner had to ask a translator to relay messages when meeting with fans.
It's strange, he's been in the LPL for so many years, yet he still can't speak Chinese fluently.
Is it really possible for someone to have such poor language learning abilities?
"Actually, learning Chinese is very simple," Lee Doo-hwan said, while pulling up a video on his phone.
"As long as you can understand this, Chinese is pretty much enough."
"Let me see." Lee Sang-hyeok reached out and took the phone, then clicked to play the video.
"You don't understand me at all."
"How am I supposed to understand if you don't tell me!"
True understanding needs no explanation.
Lee Sang-hyeok: —
As he listened to the sounds coming from the video, he showed an even more solemn expression than when facing LPL at the World Championship.
To be precise, the pressure he is facing right now is a hundred times greater than the pressure he faces against LPL in the World Championship elimination round!
After listening to the conversation, Lee Sang-hyeok returned the phone to Lee Doo-hwan.
"I thought I had almost mastered it on my own, but now I feel like I haven't even gotten the basics down."
Even Lee Sang-hyeok couldn't help but complain at this point.
"Doo-hwan, your Chinese is so troublesome!"
"Yes, it is indeed a bit difficult for you." Lee Doo-hwan nodded in agreement. "So, Sang-hyeok, sometimes you are a little far behind me."
"Am I not as good as you?"
"Yes, at least when it comes to accepting foreign cultures!"
"What do you mean?" Lee Sang-hyeok was clearly a little confused.
"Because I now completely understand your culture and your traditions, if they don't submit, I'll beat them until they do!"
Lee Sang-hyeok:
'
He opened his mouth, but suddenly didn't know what to say to refute Lee Doo-hwan's point of view.
Because it's not just LCK, it's the same all over South Korea!
The concept of hierarchy and social status is no longer considered trivial; it has become a tradition and culture that continues to this day.
However, Lee Sang-hyeok couldn't say anything about this situation; all he could do was try his best to be himself.
Seeing that Lee Sang-hyeok had resumed reading, Lee Doo-hwan, who was lying on the bed, also continued to surf.
And you know what? He should have looked, because he actually got some juicy gossip.
Because in the comments section, people are posting things like "Young General Huan subdued the bad woman with three blows, and Sun Yalong was so excited that he went to the hospital!"
Lee Doo-hwan, the young star, definitely knew it was a derogatory term used by his own fans, implying that they were brainless.
Sun Yalong had also heard of him. If he hadn't stood up and woken up Gu Shengbin back then, this guy would probably have suffered the same fate as him.
But these two things are clearly unrelated, so how did they suddenly become connected?
Somewhat curious, Lee Doo-hwan followed the clues and found a video.
After clicking and looking at it for a while, he was completely stunned.
"Is this even something a human would do?!"
The video shows a young man, Huan, calling Green Hat Dragon to cheer him on while he and Huihui are having sex. Although the video is heavily censored, the audio can still be heard to some extent.
"You son of a bitch, tell me who you are, and I'll kill you!"
"You can call me—Young General Huan!"
Listening to the furious voice of the green-hatted dragon in the video, and then listening to Hwan's leisurely and obviously comfortable voice, even Lee Doo-hwan didn't know what to say.
He knew that fan groups sometimes do things that are quite extreme.
In the LCK, things like dead rats and apology trucks are commonplace.
But these things all happened in South Korea, and only extreme South Korean fans could do such things.
Domestically, aside from hurling a few insults online, the most those fans might do is open a box.
But things are different now; Huan Xiaojiang of China has created new history.
Unlike those who can only type on a keyboard, this is something that will go down in history!
