The Deputy Godfather was thrown into a highly stressful and tense moment at once. His pupils shrank back.
Staring straight at King, his eyes reddened.
He suddenly understood.
Right from the start, King had never intended to give him two million.
He had used the million to tempt him, for the purpose of confusing him.
And now, he was out to sow seeds of discord among their team members so that everyone would lose focus.
He clenched his fists tightly and began to shake involuntarily. He hung his head. The last thing he wanted was for someone else to tell the truth about him. He wanted to come clean by himself.
He opened his mouth and started, “I—”
Before he could go any further, Shen Liangchuan suddenly raised his hand to stop him.
At the same time, after King had spoken and just as the interpreter was about to start, Shen Liangchuan pointed at the man and said, “Shut up.”
The interpreter was stunned.
Shen Liangchuan was now looking at King. Then, he suddenly made a long and fluent comment in H language.
That long speech sent King into a daze.
His team members were stunned as well.
Even Qiao Lian was stunned.
Shen Liangchuan could actually speak H language?
On the other hand, it made sense. That would be right, since Shen Liangchuan knew eight different languages. How could he not know H language?
But what were they saying to each other?
As she contemplated this, King, now visibly shaken, said another long reply.
Shen Liangchuan, however, gave him a sarcastic and derisive smile before he turned to the rest of the team and said, “Let’s go.”
King was about to speak again, but it was too late. The words that he had wanted his interpreter to convey were almost immediately swept aside by a glare from Shen Liangchuan.
Just like that, the five of them walked to the restroom without giving King another chance to put another word in.
Su Penghao and The Godfather were simply stumped by the episode.
Although Su Penghao himself knew quite a few languages, he didn’t know H language. Hence full of curiosity now, he asked, “Brother Shen, what did he just say? Why was he pointing at The Deputy Godfather?”
The Deputy Godfather was immediately nervous. Scared out of his wits now, he looked up at Shen Liangchuan.
Shen Liangchuan glanced at him indifferently and said casually, “He said that our support player is a piece of trash.”
Su Penghao was infuriated at once upon hearing this. “Damn it! This person is simply too smug! This was only because The Deputy Godfather didn’t have a chance to show his skills. If he did, King would be pulp by now!”
Having said this, he looked at The Deputy Godfather and added, “Make sure you give your best in the next segment! He dares to belittle our support player. The guy’s got a death wish!”
The Godfather was hopping mad now as well and added, “Exactly, brother, prime yourself and cheer up for the next segment, you hear me?”
The Deputy Godfather was stunned and rooted to the ground, in a daze.
He had seen King’s expression and knew for sure that he must have said something to Shen Liangchuan.
But Shen Liangchuan had covered up for him.
He looked at the man with an expression of great surprise and suddenly, he was overwhelmed by the huge wave of emotions that had welled up within.
The fact was that Shen Liangchuan had no obligation to cover up for him. All he needed to do was to get another player to replace him and they would be able to continue.
But that was not what he had chosen to do.
He had stopped the interpreter from conveying the message, and had even retaliated with a vicious comeback.
Even though he had no idea what Shen Liangchuan had said exactly, he knew that the man had protected him.
He curled his fingers into tightly clenched fists and nodded with determination, pledging, “I will give my best for the next game!”
