Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)

Chapter 284



Chapter 284

Stanley’s eyes turned cold. “So?”

“Do we want to continue? If we keep going, I’m afraid it might be lethal.”

“Two days and two nights without a minute less.” Stanley’s tone allowed no room for discussion.

After that, he hung up the call and turned back into the room.

At that moment, Henry was engrossed in watching his team’s competition video while Sebastian was hugging Rachel as he told Xyla jokes.

Gary was sitting quietly, eating his dinner, and smiling the whole time courteously.

Stanley strode over to Xyla and sat beside her.

Henry’s video was a little loud, so Xyla couldn’t resist looking at him after hearing a bit. “Are you watching Team IM’s competition?”

At this, Henry instantly looked up. “Yeah. Do you know about Team IM?”

Xyla smiled. “Yeah. The only team I like is IM. I like the team’s entire style. They’re passionate and hot-blooded. In their competitions, they’re either at war or on the way to war.”

Hearing his team being praised made Henry feel so much better. “That’s true. I think Team IM still lacks a top-class ADC. Although this ADC isn’t bad, it’s not good enough.”

“Yeah, that’s true.”

“Team IM’s owner previously had his eyes on the number one player, Seven, in the national server, but that person had ignored him completely. God knows if that player is mental,” Henry said.

Being scolded that she was mental, and by someone she was acquainted with to boot, made Xyla feel awkward. However, she remained unfazed and smiled drily. “Maybe their ambition isn’t to become a professional gamer.”

Stanley lifted a cigarette and flicked it at Henry. There was annoyance in his eyes. “Why are you spouting so much nonsense?”

Henry was completely oblivious to where Stanley’s anger was coming from. He looked confused. “No way. What are you doing? What are you angry about?”

Xyla gently pressed the man’s thigh, signaling him not to speak.

Stanley gave Henry a cold glance and kept quiet.

Henry was baffled, but he did not respond to him. Instead, he looked at Xyla and changed the subject. “Who do you like in Team IM?”

Xyla answered without hesitation, “I like their top solo, Alex.”

Henry took a long draw of his cigarette before slowly breathing out, smiling the entire time. “You have great tastes. That’s the world’s number one top solo. You seem like a profound League of Legends player.”

Xyla smiled as well. “Yeah. I’ve been playing for a while now, and I’ve seen a lot of competitions.”

“To be honest, I feel like forming a team. An acquaintance of mine gave up on forming his team and plans to transfer it to me. In that team, other than the top solo, the other players are quite good… If Alex could come over, it’d be perfect,” Xyla added. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

Henry immediately became sullen. “How could Alex possibly go there? He’s the face of Team IM.”

Xyla nodded. “Yeah, that’s true. I’m just casually suggesting it.”

Stanley asked softly, “Why do you suddenly want to form a team?”

Xyla answered, “I’ve always wanted to. E-sports is growing rapidly in our country, so this industry is quite profitable. Forming it as a side income won’t be too bad.

“Moreover, if the team was built under Quest Group’s name, it could help with marketing the company as well,” Xyla added.

Many large corporations in the country liked using this method for publicity and were really successful.

Henry crossed his legs. “You’re absolutely right, but give up on Alex.”

Stanley shot Henry a glare, but he said nothing, only quietly lighting up a cigarette.

Sebastian was done eating, so he hugged Rachel lazily and got up. “I’m done. I have something else to do, so I have to take my leave. Take your time…”

Having said that, he took Rachel’s white down jacket from the back of her chair and draped it over her shoulders.

The two simply left.
