Chapter 4

The three men didn’t expect such a challenge from the girl.

The yellow hair looked at Ai Qing with great amus.e.m.e.nt.  “You mean a round of Kart Racing?”

“CS.”  Ai Qing thought for a bit.  “2 wins out of three rounds.”

She hadn’t touched the game for more than two years.  Usually when she was bored, she would play VOS to pa.s.s time, a game where one would tap keys on keyboard as piano keys…...so, she felt much more comfortable if it was a best of three games.

“Your girlfriend is pretty funny.”  The yellow haired guy looked at Slide.  “Two on two?”

Slides smilingly took out another computer, the exact same model, from under the counter. “No, one on one.  I am basically what you would call an armchair strategist.  I never play any games.”

“Then if we win?”

“If you win, I’ll let you return the computer.”

Slide connected the two computers to the router with a cable.  Ai Qing sat besides him and said in a low voice, “Don’t expect too much from me,  I haven’t touched CS for two years.”

Slide didn’t even raise his head, as he tapped the keyboard to set up the attributes and properties.  “I don’t expect you to win all three.  That guy is also selling computers and has a store on the second floor.  Mine and his customers are mostly people who like to play games.  Just now, when I saw his face, I was already prepared to take the computer back.  So no pressure.”

“Vicious compet.i.tion?”  Ai Qing, holding her chin, watched him open CS and test the controls.  “Well then don’t blame me if I lose.”

Slide grinned and pushed over one of the computers.  “Doesn’t matter.  If you lose, I’ll give that returned computer to you.”

Ai Qing snorted with laughter and kicked him.  “Such a big incentive.  Watch out, I might just lose on purpose.”

Slide raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at her with a faint smile.

How could a person who loved to compete so much be so easily defeated.

While they were doing the preparations, some old customers came by.  They were all excited by what they were seeing.

Especially the fact that one of the contestants was a young lady with long hair, that made it even more interesting.

Quite a few people recognized the yellow hair guy and were discussing in a low voices that he was a member of the most popular team this year.  The yellow hair was icy from the beginning and acted as if he didn’t hear a thing.  But, when Slide pushed a computer to him, he suddenly said to Ai Qing, “How about this, I’ll take a handicap.  I will just use the sniper rifle.”

In CS, each player can only carry a big gun.

The submachine gun has a magazine capacity of 30 bullets, the sniper rifle has a short delay before being able to fire the next bullet.  Therefore, except for professional snipers, no one would choose to use this gun.
