In the lounge of the Blue Whale battle team.
Gu Jin performed acupuncture on Shen Ran, which only eased his pain but couldn't stop him from rushing to the toilet every few minutes.
Exhausted, Shen Ran lay on the table, slowly sipping his medicine. He said weakly, "I can't take it anymore. I really can't."
"Yangyang, please step in for me. I'm afraid I'll get too excited during the game."
It was only the semi-finals; if he won, he could still participate in the finals. However, the thought of causing an embarrassing scene on live broadcast was mortifying to him.
Gu Yang understood that Shen Ran couldn't go on stage in his current state, but she wasn't sure if she would do any better. "But you know how bad I am…"
Gu Jin gently touched her head, her cold gaze warming as she looked at Gu Yang. "It's okay. I'll help you win."
Feng Jue's eyes were clear as he smiled easily. "Sister, I will protect you."
