Gank Your Heart Episode 16 Recap
> Gank Your Heart Recap
On Ji Xiangkong's first day reporting to Waiteng, Qi Yue gave him a cold shoulder. Shu Wen originally wanted to arrange for Ji Xiangkong to live in Pei Xi's old room, but Ji Xiangkong requested to live with his teammates, so Lu Sheng became his roommate. Lu Sheng has a reclusive personality; he is not as aggressive as Qi Yue. To formally announce Ji Xiangkong's arrival, Shu Wen convened a meeting.
However, Qi Yue was late, and Li Gan simply claimed illness and didn't come. When Shu Wen announced Ji Xiangkong as captain, Qi Yue became even more furious. He was unconvinced by Ji Xiangkong and wanted to play a match against him. Ji Xiangkong agreed to let Qi Yue lead the Waiteng teammates, while he would lead the substitute players. If Ji Xiangkong won, Qi Yue would acknowledge him as captain. But if Ji Xiangkong lost, he would leave Waiteng.
Qi Yue chose the same four-protect-one strategy as before, telling everyone to give all the resources to him. Ji Xiangkong had long anticipated Qi Yue's strategy; he had his teammates split into two groups to deal with Qi Yue. Not long into the match, Shu Wen could see the difference between the two teams. Compared to Ji Xiangkong, Qi Yue was completely defeated. However, even after his defeat, Qi Yue was still unconvinced.
He blamed all the responsibility on his teammates and even proposed to play another match against Ji Xiangkong. Li Gan finally admitted Ji Xiangkong's skill, especially after seeing Ji Xiangkong adjust his annual salary to one dollar, which made him recognize Ji Xiangkong even more. As a result of this match, Ji Xiangkong almost won over the Waiteng teammates, except for Qi Yue. Li Gan advised Qi Yue to show some magnanimity and responsibility, but Qi Yue was simply unconvinced.
Qi Yue was in a bad mood and came to find his girlfriend Qiao Xin, but Qiao Xin wanted to go find someone else. Qi Yue was already angry; the previous duo queue between Qiao Xin and Pei Xi was not actually played by Pei Xi, but by Qi Yue using Pei Xi's account. As a result, rumors about Pei Xi and Qiao Xin circulated online.
Qiao Xin was anxious to prepare for the Tomorrow's Star competition; she specifically found someone to back her up, ditched Qi Yue, and left. That day, while cleaning his room, Pei Xi accidentally discovered the notes Ji Xiangkong had left behind. Just then, Lin Yixuan passed by the door and thought Pei Xi was a thief. Seeing that he was unconvinced, Pei Xi proposed to compete against Lin Yixuan, letting Lin Yixuan decide what they would compete in.
Lin Yixuan invited Pei Xi to the training hall. This time, the two were not competing in esports, but seeing who could make the other laugh first. Lin Yixuan seemed to have forgotten that Pei Xi had always had a poker face; no matter how he made funny faces, Pei Xi wouldn't laugh. Although Pei Xi had a poker face, he was no less skilled at making funny faces than Lin Yixuan. Within three seconds, Lin Yixuan laughed.
Besides training time, Pei Xi still worked as a waiter at Mengluren. After Qiu Ying officially joined, Summer arranged for Pei Xi to train Qiu Ying. Summer originally thought Pei Xi also liked Qiu Ying, so he wanted to create opportunities for the two of them. But Pei Xi was completely bewildered by this opportunity; he didn't like Qiu Ying at all. Qiu Ying, having become the number one in the server region, also became famous at Mengluren.
Two thugs at Mengluren deliberately harassed Qiu Ying, saying Ji Xiangkong dumped Qiu Ying for Shu Wen, and even trampled on the notebook Ji Xiangkong gave Qiu Ying. Fortunately, Pei Xi intervened and kicked the two people out of Mengluren. Lin Yixuan has also been very busy lately; he needs to find out the truth about Manager Zhao. To investigate Manager Zhao, Lin Yixuan specifically came to find Yiyi for help.
Yiyi originally didn't want to help Lin Yixuan, but since Lin Yixuan was like a sticky plaster, Yiyi could only agree. Yiyi also took the opportunity to ask Lin Yixuan about Shu Wen. Lin Yixuan said Shu Wen was his former sister-in-law, which made Yiyi think Shu Wen was really Ji Xiangkong's ex-girlfriend. In the evening, Yiyi told all these things to Qiu Ying.
Qiu Ying didn't want to think about Ji Xiangkong anymore; she was focused on winning the Tomorrow's Star competition and becoming a professional commentator. Ji Xiangkong's situation at Waiteng was also difficult to open up. In the evening, he wanted to talk about esports with Lu Sheng, but Lu Sheng still didn't want to interact with him.
There was also a Tong Wu in the Waiteng team; he was always bullied by Qi Yue and Shen Yue and had to prepare breakfast for them every day. Shu Wen was worried that the teammates' ostracism would trouble Ji Xiangkong, but Ji Xiangkong could see the personality traits of each Waiteng team member at a glance. Ji Xiangkong also thoroughly understood the game data of several people, and the next step was to formulate tactics.
Not only netizens misunderstood the relationship between Ji Xiangkong and Shu Wen, but Qi Yue also misunderstood it first. When Shu Wen called Ji Xiangkong out for a private chat, Qi Yue asked Li Gan to watch from upstairs. Li Gan trusted Shu Wen greatly; he also didn't want Qi Yue to interfere with their emotional matters. Whether it was a coincidence or not, Qiao Xin surprisingly also wanted to become a professional commentator.
That day she came to Mengluren to listen to Luo Tian's replay commentary. Seeing Qiu Ying working there as a waitress, she deliberately asked Qiu Ying to serve her. Qiao Xin ordered a cappuccino without milk and then made a lot of difficult demands to make things hard for Qiu Ying. Her attitude made even Pei Xi unable to watch. He directly brought Qiao Xin a latte. Luo Tian was commentating on the IConquer internal test match today.
Qiu Ying was diligently taking notes nearby, but Pei Xi said taking notes was useless and told Qiu Ying to ask Luo Tian directly. When Luo Tian asked why Legends had lost, Qiao Xin was very enthusiastic. She thought it was because Ji Xiangkong performed poorly, was instantly killed, and couldn't coordinate with his teammates, leading to the loss. But Qiu Ying believed it wasn't Ji Xiangkong's mistake, but his teammates' mistake.
Hearing this, Pei Xi suddenly realized that perhaps Huo Yao missing his ultimate wasn't a real mistake. After the event, Qiu Ying wanted to ask Luo Tian for guidance, but she hesitated for a long time before handing him her notes. But Luo Tian suddenly remembered that Qiu Ying was the girl in the Aurora commentary booth that day. Luo Tian did not give Qiu Ying guidance.
Instead, he told Qiu Ying that if she didn't even dare to lift her head, how could she have the confidence to stand on the commentary stage? Summer helping Qiu Ying pull strings was seen through by Luo Tian. Luo Tian had always thought Qiu Ying was just a pretty face, pretending to work hard on the surface but ultimately relying on her looks. But Summer told Luo Tian that Qiu Ying was definitely not a pretty face.
Qiu Ying waited for Luo Tian at the door, but still lacked courage. It was Yiyi who encouraged Qiu Ying, saying that only by being thick-skinned could one achieve great things. When Luo Tian came out, Qiu Ying rushed over and said she wanted to become Luo Tian's disciple. Luo Tian had never taken on a disciple before. He wanted Qiu Ying to prove her uniqueness through action. Summer was very concerned about this future sister-in-law. He helped Qiu Ying interpret Luo Tian's meaning and told Qiu Ying to work hard.
