Lu Zhen was nervously watching the competition backstage.

Ghost wasn’t lying. Their team was very strong. They won the competition easily with a 3:0 record.

Ghost’s performance was the most eye-catching. The entire team revolved around him. He was the soul and core of the team.

Although Ghost usually looked unreliable, he was very steady during the competition. Even if the enemy only had a trace of health left, he could resist the urge to rush up. He would never go up when he shouldn’t, and he would be very decisive when he should.

Lu Zhen had some understanding of this game and could see some details, so she was very satisfied with this competition.

At the end of the game, she couldn’t help but applaud the team backstage.

After resting for a while, the two winning teams began to fight for the championship of the finals.

Lu Zhen felt a trace of nervousness. It was probably because she knew Ghost and already considered him a friend that she was worried. After two rounds of games, the score was 1:1. It seemed that the opponent was very strong.

Lu Zhen had been looking at the screen on the stage nervously. She did not realize that a staff member who was cleaning up the backstage had secretly taken a photo of her with his phone and posted it online with words—

“Lu Zhen is really nervous about her boyfriend backstage. I can tell that the two of them have a deep relationship.”

This Weibo post quickly caused a heated discussion among the netizens. Everyone was even more convinced that Lu Zhen and Ghost were definitely a couple. Otherwise, why would she look so nervous and uneasy?

Xiaoxiao was used to paying attention to the entertainment news online at all times. The first thing she saw was this Weibo post. When she saw the netizens’ comments, she was instantly furious.

What nonsense were these people talking about?! Couldn’t friends worry about each other? Also, who was the person who took the photo? How could he secretly take backstage photos?!

Seeing that Lu Zhen was watching the competition seriously, Xiaoxiao did not disturb her. She took her phone and went to look for the official person-in-charge to deal with this matter.

At this moment, the competition on the stage was still going on nervously.

Ten minutes later, Team A-Star won another round. As long as Team A-Star could win three rounds, they could become the national champion of this finals.

“I’m so nervous!” A-Star’s mid-laner wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked at Ghost. “The other party is so strong and has been targeting you. You have to be careful in the next round.’

Ghost took a sip of mineral water, his gaze cool and steady. “Don’t worry. We’ll definitely win.” He had told Lu Zhen that he would definitely lead the team to the championship. He would definitely do it!

The match began, and all the audience in the event location stared intently at the screen.

The emcee’s voice was very excited. “What is Ghost doing? There are three people on the other side! Does he want to fight against three people alone? Although he’s developing very well, there’s a lot of risk in doing so! Oh my god, he’s really going up! He killed one person. Is it over? No! None of the people on the other side can escape! Ghost’s triple kill!”

Lu Zhen stood up backstage and looked at the screen excitedly.

The audience at the event location screamed wildly.

Ghost killed three enemies in a row and then led the team to defeat them all the way. The other party clearly no longer had the courage or confidence to resist. With the explosion of the enemy crystal, the “victory” sign appeared on the screen.

“Let us congratulate A-Star for winning the national finals! A-Star is first!” The emcee’s voice almost broke.

The audience was also shouting, “A-Star is the best!” and “Ghost, you’re my god!” The scene was a little out of control for a moment. The entire stadium was enveloped in fanaticism and excitement.

Lu Zhen was also infected by this atmosphere. She clapped excitedly and felt the true charm of esports.

This was a purely competitive activity. It was a battle for victory and honor. This was a battlefield of passion, an ideal stage. She saw a courageous spirit in the players of these teams.

Hearing the emcee’s words, Ghost suddenly raised his head. His eyes were as bright as stars.

Lu Zhen walked out of the backstage with a perfect smile on her face. When the light landed on her, her facial features were as exquisite as a doll’s. That smile was almost impossible to look away from..
