Later, He Became A Royal Healer

Chapter 28 - A sudden condition.

T/N: Felt the need to repeat this again, especially for this chapter: Liang Liang doesn’t actually know KK’s gender, the author and Liang Liang refers to KK as ‘he’ mostly out of convenience in his POV. And KK will keep thinking that his Liang Liang is a female until it is revealed to him~

Read on~

In You Liangxing’s memory, the first time they played a game together was on the train. Back then, it had been early morning. Since he was up early in the morning to game, You Liangxing was not sure if the other party had leisure time in the afternoon.

You Liang replied: — Recently….

As he was about to type the word ‘I have been touring’, he paused. While those words were appropriate for Liang Chulin, it was not very suitable for him. He did not come to the capital for leisure and walking around to look at the scenery was but a means to pass the time.

You Liangxing continued: — I’ve been taking a look around.

After issuing the sentence, he felt like it seemed to contain some rejection. He was about to remedy it with an explanation when the other party sent him a message.

[don’t want to move]: — Then after these few days, we can game together during the day.

His reading comprehension was on point; not only did he understand the implication in his sentence, he even followed it up naturally by inviting him to play during the day. When it came to grasping the meaning in You Liangxing’s words, [don’t want to move] was exceptionally talented.

You Liangxing could not help but tack on another question: — Are you not busy during the day?

[don’t want to move]: — Holiday.

[don’t want to move]: — Start?

You Liangxing: — En.

The conversation ended there. The distance they maintained was just right; they did not delve too deeply into each other’s business, but they were not estranged either. As the game started, You Liangxing was lost in his thoughts.

If he had time in the day because he was free during the holidays…. Was he a student?

However, the range for students was wide: there were graduate students, university students, high schoolers, and even junior high schoolers. The vacation for students happened to coincide, and You Liangxing took a moment to toss a glance at Liang Chulin who was beside him. In his heart, he thought: he should not be in this age group.

In his impressions, [don’t want to move] was more mature than Liang Chulin.

Bringing his reverie back to the game, the first match went by unhindered. However, as the game was progressing, WeChat notifications started to pop up above his game, frequently blocking a portion of his screen.

Starting from the first message, You Liangxing already knew that it was Liao Su who was messaging him, and the prompts that followed after were merely notifying him about the accumulation of messages. You Liangxing endured it until the end of the game with much impatience, and then he messaged [don’t want to move]: — Give me a moment.

He went onto WeChat to find Liao Su, and on their chat, over a dozen of new messages had appeared.

[It’s Liao Su Not Plastic]: — Brother Liang, Brother Liang!

[It’s Liao Su Not Plastic]: — You went to the Capital? I saw what you shared on your Moments!

[It’s Liao Su Not Plastic]: — Why didn’t you tell me, I could have went with you!

[It’s Liao Su Not Plastic]: — Ei, Brother Liang! What are you doing right now, poke poke poke poke poke!

Then, his nonsense started and he diverged into different tangents.

[It’s Liao Su Not Plastic]: — Wah! You’re gaming!! Why didn’t you call me as well! 〖Angry Akimbo〗

[It’s Liao Su Not Plastic]: — Pull me in for the next match pull me pull me pull me pull me!!

You Liangxing: &#k2014; Shut up, if you keep messaging I’ll beat you death.

When his message went out, Liao Su really stopped, and a pitiful expression went sent over. Liao Su said: &#k2014; QAQ Brother Liang, bring me to fly.

There was no need to reject a game invitation, except Liao Su truly had no reservations. Feeling the blue veins in his head pulsate, You Liangxing replied: — Get online.

After thinking about it, he added: — By the way, there is another friend.

Liao Su reacted almost immediately: –〖Shocked Face〗 Liang Chuhan!!??

You Liangxing: — …..

You Liangxing: — Someone else.

When read, the words seemed indifferent and light, but Liao Su could almost imagine You Liangxing’s threatening gaze at full force. Facing his phone, he subconsciously shrunk his neck and replied: — Oh.

If it was not Liang Chuhan, Liao Su did not care as much.

Just a while ago, Liao Su saw what You Liangxing was up to on his Moments. And because the intervals between his updates on his Moments were overlong, it felt very novel whenever he chose to do it. Thus, he went over to chat.

You Liangxing was the sort of person who would reply seconds after receiving a message; and when he received no reaction despite sending a string of them, Liao Su could not help but wonder what he was busy with. Boxing? It shouldn’t be. Judging from his WeChat Moments, he was currently in Beijing, and a hotel stay could not possibly come with a complimentary sandbag.

Suddenly, a conjecture arose in his head. He logged into the game to take a look, and sure enough, You Liangxing was online and already in a game.

There was nothing strange about You Liangxing playing the game on his own, but what was strange was the fact that he was already in Gold I. It was estimated that if he played a few more matches, he would reach platinum.

In just a few days, how did he manage to climb the ranks so fast? And the most troubling issue was, why didn’t he receive a single invite when he was ranking up?

Liao Su deeply felt that he was falling out of favour, so he put on a hot pursuit and fiercely attacked him.

[It’s Liao Su Not Plastic]: — I’m on my smurf, you pull me!

You Liangxing returned back to King’s Glory and went online. Opening the private chat [don’t want to move] on the friends’ interface, he could not help but sigh lightly.

[Little Angel Liang Liang]: — A friend wants to play together.

The other party immediately replied.

[don’t want to move]: — The person from before?

‘The person from before’ he was referring to was [Not a Primary School Student] Liang Chulin, who had left a deep impression on him. This sage of the past really made You Liangxing remember him vividly, and Kang Shengzhe felt the same.

You Liangxing replied: — No, dorm mate.

After sending it quickly, he realised that the two words “dorm mate” was a little inappropriate, but the message could no longer be withdrawn in the game. You Liangxing could only tell himself not to care too much about it.

[don’t want to move]: — Then we’ll have a three-man queue.

[Little Angel Liang Liang]: — En.

You Liangxing had yet to make a move, and he was probably waiting for his friend to come online. Then, Kang Shengzhe’s entire body fell back to lean against his backrest, and he stretched his body in a habitual, lazy way that would never be fully completed.

The only person trying to extrapolate information from a word or two was not only You Liangxing; Kang Shengzhe was also making his own conjectures as he lightly tapped on his phone screen. Dorm mate…

Sure enough, she was a student.

If Kang Shengzhe had based his guess off her voice alone after having heard it, she should be a sweet and pretty girl with an appropriate and corresponding age. However, Kang Shengzhe did not trust voices. Voices could be deceiving, and he was one of the prime examples of this. Therefore, compared to voices, he preferred to believe in his own intuition.

According to his gut instinct, [Little Angle Liang Liang] should not be in junior high or high school. She gave off the impression of maturity, and sometimes, even indifference. However, her insouciance maintained a veneer of politeness, and it made her unfathomable.

At minimum, she was a university student.

As he was thinking about it, an invitation from [Little Angel Liang Liang] emerged on the interface. Kang Shengzhe flexed his fingers a little. In order to play games with [Little Angel Liang Liang], Kang Shengzhe usually took the time after his three-hour broadcasts to do so privately. After playing for such a long time, his hands were bound to be tired, and he had to exercise and relax them.

Clicking on ‘accept’, he entered the matchmaking room that already had two people in it.

【Little Angel Liang Liang】and【I just love running】

Kang Shengzhe felt that the latter was somewhat familiar. After sifting through his memories carefully, he remembered he had seen it during the match he had spectated. At that time, Hou Yi and Liang Liang’s Da Ji had mutually cooperated to turn the tables. Since Kang Shengzhe had done a commentary on it, he remembered who the Hou Yi was, and it was this player [I just love running].

They happened to be a duo queue; no wonder they cooperated so well in that match.

Kang Shengzhe took his place in the matchmaking room and waited for it started. Next to the avatar of [I just love running], the voice channel icon suddenly lit up, first to open the listening function, followed closely by the microphone.

After playing a week of games with [Little Angel Liang Liang], Kang Shengzhe had never spoken to the other person. However, now that he saw the microphone icon, he suddenly had a moment of hesitation.

Even though his mood was going through some fluctuations, Kang Shengzhe and You Liangxing chose to press the voice listening button at the same time. Coincidentally, [I just love running] had coughed once before he started to speak.

“Ei, Brother Liang, are you not going to turn on your speech function? Wah, no way, you want me to talk to myself again? You’re too much, really too much!”

A voice full of heroism and a man’s huskiness resounded through the game. Kang Shengzhe choked. No doubt…. This was definitely a man’s voice.

Man…

Dorm mate?

Kang Shengzhe was somewhat confused in his head. Thus, it took him a long time to notice the way [I just love running] addressed [Little Angel Liang Liang].

They were friends in reality and he was addressed as Brother Liang, therefore, there had to be a ‘Liang’ character in Little Angel Liang Liang’s real name, right?

…. That’s not right.

Kang Shengzhe almost laughed at the focal point he had been distracted by. Gathering his senses, he scrutinised the information he had again. Brother Liang – does this mean that [Little Angel Liang Liang] was a man?

But her voice was clearly…

Did he add the wrong person?

Not possible, even if he disregarded the voice first, a player’s mechanics could not lie, and his intuition would never lie to him. Kang Shengzhe frowned slightly. Even when [Little Angel Liang Liang] replied to him in game, he did not return back to his senses.

Rewinding back to the time where they first met in game, for the first half of it, [Little Angel Liang Liang] virtually did not turn on their speech function. The only time they spoke was prior to the enemy’s crystal nexus exploding, and that had been spurred by agitation, which led to them opening their mouth to curse at him. Their moment of impulse completely eliminated the possibility of deliberate deception.

After he added them as a friend, the other party had never spoken, nor have they ever suggested to Kang Shengzhe that they were a female. What that meant was that, from the very beginning, it was only Kang Shengzhe who misunderstood.

The other person was probably a man.

No no no, thinking about it carefully, whenever [Little Angel Liang Liang] typed, it gave people the impression he was most probably a man! This would clarify the sense of intrigue the other party had that Kang Shengzhe was extremely concerned about.

What kind of man is he…

Abruptly, Kang Shengzhe could not help but think: Voices were truly deceiving.

Truthfully speaking, even though Kang Shengzhe joked that carrying a girl felt pretty cool, he had never really thought of [Little Angel Liang Liang] in that respect.

He liked gaming. If he used games for the sole purpose of carrying girls in order to get in contact with them, not only would it be disrespecting them, it was also be an insult to himself.

What he had was mere interest. And right now, despite his speculations that the other party was a man, he did not feel disappointed. In fact, his interest towards him only grew stronger.

Kang Shengzhe paused. In game, [Little Angel Liang Liang] was currently conversing with [I just love running]. Apparently, it was not convenient for Liang Liang to open his speech function because there was someone sleeping by his side. As they entered the matchmaking queue, [I just love running] was muttering mournfully.

Following, the game quickly entered the matchmaking interface. Kang Shengzhe raised his phone up high and he could not stop the soft chuckle from rising up his throat.

Due to the ecstasy he could not hold back, his complexion was tinged with a light rouge, and when it was coupled with his somewhat indolent disposition and beautiful visage, it was puzzling and beyond description.

Kang Shengzhe inhaled and kept a breath on a tip of his tongue. Then, as he exhaled, his lips curved up slowly.

“Ah~~ Really want to meet him.”

The author has something to say: Little red flowers are not very friendly to authors like me. [Moran Face].
