Chapter 63

Since Huo Shi had returned, he naturally stayed at home.

His bedroom had always been well-preserved, with regular cleaning by the servants.

Around eleven o'clock at night, Lin Yi felt sleepy and got up from the sofa in the living room, intending to go upstairs to sleep.

At that moment, Huo Shi called out, "Sister-in-law, is that game room yours?"

He had discovered the game room shortly after returning and guessed it belonged to Lin Yi.

Lin Yi paused and nodded, "Yeah, why?"

Huo Shi asked, "Can I use it too?"

Lin Yi replied, "Of course."

It was just a game room, not a private space. If Huo Shi wanted to go there, he could.

Lin Yi thought Huo Shi was just asking casually and didn't think much of it, soon heading upstairs lazily.

Until a few days later, one night.

At one o'clock in the morning, Lin Yi woke up thirsty.

During dinner, he had eaten a lot of braised pork ribs, almost finishing the entire plate, which left him very thirsty now.

Lin Yi yawned as he walked out of his bedroom and went downstairs for water.

At this time, the villa was quiet, all the lights were off.

Lin Yi slowly descended the stairs and headed towards the kitchen.

After drinking a glass of water and leaving the kitchen, he noticed light coming from the game room.

He instinctively took a few steps closer and saw what was happening inside.

The door of the game room was slightly ajar, leaving a small gap.

Inside, Huo Shi sat in front of an open computer.

The cold white light from the screen cast a shadow on his rebellious face, making him look even more aloof.

His bangs were slightly disheveled, and his eyes held an unmissable determination and pride.

This was the unique charm of Captain Huo. If his fans saw him like this, they would surely be thrilled.

Soon, Huo Shi picked up something resembling a plaster and neatly tore open its packaging with his teeth. Then, he lowered his head and stuck it onto his right wrist.

His movements were casual; he quickly applied the plaster.

Something must have happened to his right hand, but he seemed indifferent to the pain.

After applying the plaster, he gripped the mouse with one hand and placed the other on the keyboard, starting to practice gaming...

Lin Yi stood nearby, watching quietly for a while before leaving without drawing attention.

No wonder Huo Shi had asked about the game room that night. Lin Yi hadn't seen Huo Shi enter during the day, thinking he had just asked out of curiosity. But it turned out he was practicing at night.

Indeed, gamers often stay up late. There's a saying in the e-sports world-electronic sports, no sleep.

These people practice hard at night and catch up on sleep during the day.

But wasn't Huo Shi already retired?

Why did he still maintain the habit of daily training?

Was it because he couldn't bear to leave the stage he loved so much?
