Chapter 65 – Next Time, Wear It Just For Me.
“You want to change your jump point?”
Xu Shaoqiu was a little surprised but quickly understood what Yin Sijue meant.
In PUBG professional competitions, each team’s jump point is usually fixed. Every team picks the area on the map they know best as their home base. This information is made public through match replays and becomes a crucial reference for team commanders when gathering intel during a game.
However, there are times when a team temporarily changes its jump point. After all, there are only so many places to land on a map. If a contest point can’t be secured, or if the flight path is too far, it’s normal to adjust the landing spot.
Even so, deciding to change the jump point before the map’s flight route is revealed is quite rare.
Da Shu rubbed his hands in anticipation. “Is there going to be a fight? At least four teams have to be dropping at the airport. Oh my! Things are heating up!”
“Are you familiar with the airport?” Yin Sijue turned to Ji Wei, a teasing smile in his eyes.
“…Familiar.” Ji Wei suspected this guy was just making small talk and rubbed his nose in irritation.
The second game he and Yin Sijue had ever played—three years ago—was at the airport. Back then, he had painstakingly sniped for ages before finally reaching this so-called “Great Buddha,” only for Yin Sijue to deliberately tell him to jump out of the airport at the start—and even mock his skills afterward!
Seeing Ji Wei’s face puffed up like a steamed bun, Yin Sijue chuckled and pinched his cheek affectionately, understanding exactly what he was thinking.
“I really didn’t know who you were back then,” he said. “I just wanted to land at the airport to test you. Now that you’ve proven yourself, I’ve got no complaints—right?”
“But you still didn’t accept my friend request that day!”
The memory came flooding back like a tidal wave, and Ji Wei was so annoyed that he made his in-game character punch Yin Sijue in the face.
The countdown for takeoff began, and Dashu cut in with mock exasperation. “Next time you two flirt, can you at least mute your mics?”
Mi Li added dryly, “One more.”
“No more flirting,” Yin Sijue said, glancing at the flight path and marking the airport as their landing point. “Get ready for a fight. Whoever dies first treats everyone to lunch tomorrow.”
As the plane reached its closest distance, all four pressed the jump button at the same time, diving straight toward the airport at full speed.
Ji Wei adjusted his camera view and looked around—there was a dense crowd in the sky, far more than he usually saw in a match.
“Why are there so many people?” Da Shu gasped. “There have to be more than four teams! Where did they all come from?”
Yin Sijue frowned, scanning the players around them. “Two PKL teams and UGC, plus us—there shouldn’t be this many.”
Mi Li: “Did the other teams also change their jump points?”
Yin Sijue: “Not sure. Da Shu, watch the kill feed. We’ll grab the point first. The SOP guys don’t know we’re landing at the airport yet, so we can take them out while we’ve still got the element of surprise.”
Ji Wei pressed W to keep accelerating. At maximum descent speed, he hit the parachute button and rolled as he landed on the roof of Building C.
“Two players have landed on the main building,” someone reported.
The person next to him landed a second later, but in that split second, Ji Wei had already picked up the shotgun on the ground and blasted the disoriented enemy three times.

“The announcement’s been updated.” Ji Wei reloaded and finished off the enemy. “SOP, please note—we’ve changed our jump point.”
Da Shu, perched on the elevated platform, reported, “Two down in the tower, two more below Unique, one at the police station, and one at K Building. A bunch of them fled to Port N after landing. No idea why.”
Yin Sijue didn’t pick up a gun right after landing. Instead, he punched a poorly positioned DT member to death, then grabbed a UMP9 at the police station.
“The two in the main building should be SOP’s men. Unique, hold on—I’m heading over.”
Ji Wei listened closely to the footsteps downstairs. “Can’t wait! They’re jumping out the window! Trying to escape!”
A sound of someone vaulting out a second-floor window echoed nearby. SOP, having seen the elimination feed in the top-right corner, realized AVG had switched to the airport—and immediately chose to run.
Mi Li traded shots with an enemy using her pistol. “That annoying guy in Building K’s trying to run too. How ridiculous.”
Da Shu jumped off the overpass in a hurry. “Why would I run? I haven’t even made a move yet! What’s the point?”
The enemy who leapt from Building C’s window was unlucky enough to run straight into Yin Sijue. He shot and killed him mid-air before the man even touched the ground.

Yin Sijue said coolly, “That’s right, SOP. I killed their second-in-command. Usually, the captain dies right after him.”
Ji Wei ran to the edge of the rooftop. “The other one ran the other way—this route… he’s going for the car!”
He quickly picked up the AKM he’d just looted and fired a burst of bullets, blowing out all the jeep’s tires.
The vehicle was wrecked, and SOP Captain Cheng, who had been trying to drive away, stopped in despair.
Da Shu exclaimed, “Running away just like that? How cowardly!”
Mi Li said, “Unique, Solve—someone from Building K is heading your way.”
After destroying the tires on the rooftop, Ji Wei didn’t let the runners escape. He aimed down and shot a SOP member who was trying to regroup with his teammates, landing a clean headshot. The man dropped before he could even reach the door.

“Two more!” Ji Wei called out.
Meanwhile, Mi Li had found a Vector in Building K. She positioned herself facing the tower, and when she heard footsteps, she dodged aside and fired a precise hip shot, downing the man who was about to leave the tower to support his team.
[AVG_Milly] used the Vector to kill [SOP_Flanker]
Da Shu cheered, “Hey, that Flanker’s the one who tried to wear you out with a sniper yesterday! Mili finally got her revenge!”
As the last SOP member mounted a bicycle and tried to flee, Yin Sijue spotted him from Building C and fired a burst. The first shot broke his armor, and the third hit him right in the head.

With that, the four-man AVG squad successfully secured the airport—less than five minutes into the second match.
“Yeah, yeah, yeah!” Da Shu shouted, turning on all his microphones and yelling in broken foreign language, “Shift! Shift! Shift!”
Ji Wei froze for three seconds. “That’s shit…”
Da Shu blinked. “Holy crap? Did I mess it up? That’s awkward. Should I… uh, corpse-whip instead?”
Ji Wei led him to the SOP captain’s body. “Don’t do something even we’d find tasteless. Try something else—I’ll teach you.”
“Didn’t you just learn that girl group dance routine yesterday? Do it right here.”
“Right!” Da Shu said excitedly. “You get me!!”
The next second, he switched emotes and started dancing seductively on Zone’s corpse.
“Don’t tell me, don’t tell me! This move even comes with its own music—it sounds great!”
Ji Wei and Mi Li stood beside him, clicked Follow, and the three of them began gyrating and swaying their hips over Zone’s corpse.
To pull off that set of moves, Da Shu had even switched into the girl group model skin. The sexy dance and hot outfit made for quite the show.
But Mi Li and Ji Wei, standing nearby, both had plain black skins and were shirtless. The sight of two burly men dancing so coquettishly was truly jarring.
Yin Sijue stood by and watched for two seconds, his optic nerves throbbing uncomfortably. He moved his mouse, intending to get out of this chaotic scene.
Ji Wei called out, “Come here.”
Yin Sijue sighed. Controlling his black-skinned character, he clicked the emote to join in, accompanying them through the entire girl group dance on top of the SOP loot box.
“Ahhh… Aren’t they going to be pissed off?”
Da Shu was shaking with laughter, trying hard to stifle it. “This is seriously worth the money. Didn’t the Alliance even ask us to promote this skin? We could just send them this screen recording!”
Mi Li laughed for a long time. “This is more infuriating than a corpse whip…”
Ji Wei grinned. “This dance set is really pretty, but it’s too expensive for me. I’ll just wait for you to draw it again and gift it to me someday.”
Yin Sijue, who had never done anything like this before, cleared his throat awkwardly. “We’re still in the safe zone. That UGC team must’ve changed their jump point—looks like they didn’t go to the airport.”
Da Shu asked, “Then where did all those people I saw earlier go? Did they all run off?”
Mi Li replied, “You guys think this game’s that easy? Why were those four SOP players acting like bots?”
Ji Wei attached the 4x scope he’d just looted and glanced toward Port N. Hearing no enemy movement, he fell silent for a moment.
“SOP didn’t expect us to switch to the airport so suddenly, so their initial landing plan was a mess. Besides, they’re not exactly a top-tier team.”
“Yeah.” Yin Sijue handed Ji Wei two grenades he’d just picked up. “SOP’s strength lies in their mechanics. They rarely take direct fights. The last time they beat UGC, it was probably because DT helped them out—they just took advantage of the two-on-one situation.”
“That DT didn’t deploy his parachute properly and landed later than Unique. Two of them got wiped right away, and the other two ran off. No wonder SOP panicked.”
Da Shu gasped. “Oh my god—then our PG’s plan is what, ‘just jump somewhere else when we meet them’?”
Ji Wei shook his head. “No. Airport circles are rare in competitions. Landing at the airport requires strong control and coordination—it’s not something a team like ours can easily manage.”
“But since both of these training matches had airport circles, it makes me think…”
Mi Li added quietly, “Actually, I have a guess too.”
Yin Sijue sneered. “Nothing to be shy about. So many people landed at the airport at the start, then ran off right after. My guess is they were SOP’s so-called sparring partners. There’s a bug in custom rooms—the circle tends to form where there are more players. They probably got stuck there by accident.”
Da Shu suddenly realized, “Damn! I was wondering—how could we have two scrimmages in the airport zone? That’s too sneaky!”
“We’ve already taken the airport, so we’ll probably stay in the zone the whole time,” Ji Wei said smugly. “Doesn’t this count as planting trees for future generations to enjoy the shade?”
And it turned out to be true. AVG stayed within the safe zone until the very end, truly blessed by fate—and naturally took the win.
Xu Shaoqiu came out of the viewing room beaming. “Wow, you guys played really well!”
Da Shu couldn’t wait to get another SOP kill in the third game. “Where did Rongdu and the others drop again? I forgot!”
“I told you to review, but you didn’t listen. Next game, they’re—”
Ding dong.
An email notification popped up on Xu Shaoqiu’s phone. He frowned and tapped it open.
After reading the message, Xu Shaoqiu chuckled. “Oh, no need to fight Rongdu.”
He turned his phone to show the others. On the screen was a newly received international email:
[The SOP manager stated that changing the jump point at the last minute during a training match was dishonest. Therefore, the third round is canceled.]
The four AVG players: “…”
Da Shu was incredulous. “How can they be so shameless? Does corpse-whipping make them honest now?”
Mi Li opened the official replay and pulled up the dance clip, saving it to her folder. “Whatever. If we’re not playing, then we’re not playing. They’re probably already furious anyway.”
Xu Shaoqiu didn’t seem too bothered by the petty move, but he did warn them, “Don’t leak the video. As much as I’d love to see it go viral, we promised not to reveal any training match footage. We need to keep our word.”
Da Shu grinned. “Don’t worry—we’ll just enjoy it in private.”
…
No one died first in the final game, which meant no one owed lunch the next day. Still, Ji Wei thoughtfully ordered a big serving of spicy bullfrog for everyone.
When he went to pick up the delivery at the door, he noticed another order with the same address.
“Hello, there’s also a barbecue order for Mr. Yin. Is that yours? If so, I won’t call again.”
Ji Wei took the cooler bag from the delivery guy. “Yeah, I’ll take it in for him. Thanks.”
Back at the base, Da Shu came downstairs and shouted in delight at the sight of all the food.
“Awesome! I just dreamed about eating bullfrog and barbecue last night! Thanks, bao bao mao mao”
Ji Wei laid out the food on the table, looking puzzled. “What’s bao bao mao mao’?”
“It’s the nickname your CP fans gave you two,” Da Shu said, stepping forward to help unpack the boxes. “It means mom and dad—it’s just a cute way of saying it.”
Ji Wei flushed slightly. “Why call us that? I can’t even have kids…”
Yin Sijue came down the stairs with his phone in hand. “You got the delivery too? I saw he ordered it.”
“Yeah.” Ji Wei looked up and whispered in Yin Sijue’s ear, “Da Shu said the fans call us mom and dad. Oh my god.”
Yin Sijue curved his lips into a faint smile and looked at him. “Don’t you like it?”
“Not really…” Ji Wei was stunned by the simplicity and bluntness of internet slang. “It just feels a little embarrassing.”
Xu Shaoqiu and Mi Li hadn’t arrived yet, but Da Shu didn’t bother waiting. He opened the bag, grabbed a skewer of pork belly, and started chewing. “Have you been keeping up with the gossip on Maoyu TV lately?”
Gossip about his former employer? Ji Wei perked up, interested. “What’s the news?”
“They’ve been catching a lot of heat lately. Remember Wolf—the one they promoted—who ended up in jail? The platform got sued too. Seeing your good streaming numbers, they tried to copy your style by pushing a few old-school streamers, but none of them came close. Their traffic tanked, and several of their top streamers are terminating their contracts and bailing.”
“I heard about that too.” Xu Shaoqiu and Mi Li walked in, each carrying a few drinks. “A lot of advertisers have stopped working with them. There’s even a rumor in the industry that Aurora TV might be acquiring them.”
“Wow.” Mi Li said flatly, taking a bite of her food. “Serves them right. I was furious when I found out they secretly hired trolls to attack me.”
Xu Shaoqiu nodded. “Exactly. I could’ve sued them for defamation, but I was too kind to bother. Seems karma’s doing the job for me.”
Ji Wei nodded and took a sip of Coke in silent sympathy for his former company’s downfall.
“By the way,” Xu Shaoqiu turned to Ji Wei, “your merch sales have been outstanding—especially the Solve line. After you revealed your nickname at the All-Star Game, sales doubled. The club’s decided to raise your revenue share by one percent.”
Ji Wei looked at him in surprise. “I thought that ‘Lao Liu’ uniform looked awful—people actually like it that much?”
“What are you talking about?” Xu Shaoqiu laughed, pulling out his phone. He opened a page of buyer posts and handed it to Ji Wei. “Of course they’re not just buying the ‘Lao Liu’ uniform.”
Ji Wei took the phone, puzzled. The screen was full of photos of fans holding plush dolls at different scenic spots.
He had to admit—the fans’ photography skills were truly impressive. The composition and filters put the official promotional shots to shame. Some had photos of blue skies and white clouds, others of delicious foods or famous landmarks. Ji Wei felt as if he were traveling around the world with them.
But that’s not the point…
The point is—why are all the dolls wearing women’s clothing?
Ji Wei stretched out his trembling fingers and scrolled through the image gallery, his face reddening at a visible speed.
Sailor suits, maid outfits, Lolita skirts…
Every possible dress style in existence seemed to invade Ji Wei’s mind all at once.
Yin Sijue, watching beside him, was also under siege.
“Where do you even buy clothes like these? Are they included as gifts?” Yin Sijue tilted his head, studying the photos. “Why does mine only have the Lao Liu outfit?”
“How could it be included as a gift?” Xu Shaoqiu snatched the phone back. “We’re already selling them cheap at forty yuan each. There’s no way we could give away extra clothes.”
“These must be fan-made. I’ve seen people organizing group buys on the super chat. The quantities are really limited—once they sell out, that’s it.”
Yin Sijue blinked, then sighed in regret. “Alright.”
Ji Wei: ?
He thought the topic was over.
But a few days later, Ji Wei suddenly spotted a strange object hanging from Yin Sijue’s gadget bag.
It was strange because it looked familiar—but not that familiar.
As if trying to draw attention on purpose, Yin Sijue carried his gadget bag up and down the stairs indoors, until Ji Wei finally caught him.
Dragging him into his room, Ji Wei’s face flushed bright red.
“…What are you wearing that for!”
Hanging from the bag was none other than Ji Wei’s doll—dressed in a cat-ear outfit. A pale yellow lace tutu, a cat-ear headband, and a little tail on the back. Dangling from a man’s gadget bag, it looked absurdly out of place against Yin Sijue’s cool, unapproachable face.
Yin Sijue fiddled with the cat ears, a faint smile on his lips. “Does it look good? I just got it, but I’m not great at taking pictures, so I figured I’d show you the real thing.”
Ji Wei stiffened, his neck locked in place. “…Didn’t Brother Qiu say those outfits were sold out?”
“Yeah.” Yin Sijue carefully tucked the doll into the side of his bag like a prized possession. “I messaged the blogger directly. She agreed to sell it to me right away. She even wanted to send me something else, but I only wanted this set.”
Ji Wei: ?!
“Which account did you use to private message her?”
Yin Sijue gave him a look that said, “I only have one account.”
How could Ji Wei possibly argue with that? He closed his eyes, nearly fainting.
No more browsing the super chat or reading his “wife’s” posts tonight—there would probably be plenty of adult content waiting there.
Yin Sijue saw his flushed face, smiled, rubbed his thumb over Ji Wei’s lips, and leaned down to kiss him.
The World Championship was approaching, and they had been swamped with training these past few days. It had been ages since they’d had any real time alone together.
Ji Wei was already a little flustered from the cat-eared doll incident, and the sudden kiss made his head spin. He had to pause just to catch his breath.
Yin Sijue lowered his gaze to Ji Wei’s reddened cheeks and the way his hand clutched tightly at the hem of his shirt.
Even though it felt like they’d been together for a long time, Ji Wei was still incredibly shy—he would stay embarrassed for a long while after just a single kiss.
His lips were soft and full, turning a deeper red after only a few kisses, making him look especially vulnerable.
Yin Sijue, catching his breath, lowered his head again and kissed Ji Wei, his words murmuring against those damp, rosy lips.
“If you don’t want me to wear this doll,” he whispered, “then wear it yourself next time.”
…
Ji Wei didn’t know when “next time” would be, and he didn’t dare ask.
Both of them had woken up early that morning. The housekeeper, who had just returned from vacation, was surprised to see them both in the living room at such an hour.
“Up so early? I’ll make you breakfast.”
Yin Sijue gently pushed Ji Wei toward the couch. “You stay here. I’m going to the gym for a bit. We’ll eat afterward.”
He was so disciplined. Ji Wei turned to look at him. “How long are you training today?”
Yin Sijue replied, “No high-intensity workouts before the competition. Just a thirty-minute jog. You want to come?”
“Haha, no.” Ji Wei smiled and waved. “I can’t even last five minutes jogging. Bye.”
Today, Auntie made small wontons with chili oil and a sprinkle of dried shrimp—fresh and fragrant. Ji Wei could devour ten in a single bite.
“It’s so delicious, Auntie!” He gave the woman, busy in the kitchen, a big thumbs-up. “I’ve been craving this ever since you went on vacation.”
“It’s good, isn’t it? I’ll make more next time,” she replied with a smile.
Ji Wei ate his breakfast with great satisfaction. His phone was sitting right beside him, impossible to ignore, so he opened Weibo and checked the super topic.
The JueWei CP super topic was already buzzing early in the morning—because of a chat screenshot with over 5,000 retweets.
[@Work Hard to Make Money and Feed the Child: Family! Solve himself came to me to order baby clothes! It’s really him! Screen recording as proof! [Video]]
“I knew it.” Ji Wei pouted and clicked the video, which turned out to be a private message from Yin Sijue.
@AVG_Solve: [Hello, is the ‘Kitten Mimi’ doll costume on your homepage still available? I saw it’s sold out, but I really like it and can offer a higher price. Please let me know the amount. Thank you.]
Ji Wei: “…”
That’s enough.
He shamelessly opened the comments section, covering his eyes with one hand and peeking at the screen through his fingers.
[The woc progress bar scrolled three times, and it was actually me]
[The leopard cat is playing really big…]
[I’m dying of laughter. How much do I like it?]
[Solve is so honest, he didn’t even create a second account.]
[There are so many outfits on his homepage, but he chose this one. How much does he love cat ears?]
[Maybe Madam is considering making an adult version in a unique size? Sell it to this man at a high price, he’ll definitely buy it.]
[So the question is, what is a unique size?]
[Send a private message to Solve. He’ll definitely know, after all, he’s already wearing cat ears.]
[@JueWei, Number One in the World Madam is hungry, I want to eat some cat ears. I want the kind with the tail, you know.]
Pop!
Ji Wei slammed his phone against the table and took a deep breath.
What size? What kind of tail? Even Madam couldn’t understand! He couldn’t possibly give birth to a child with such impure thoughts!
Just as he was raging with impotence, footsteps sounded behind him. Auntie emerged from the kitchen, holding the phone nervously, a look of uneasiness on her face.
“Hey, Xiao Wei, the food I just ordered seems to be at the gate of the complex. The security guard won’t let it in, but I’m stewing soup and can’t leave…”
“It’s okay, Auntie.” Ji Wei immediately understood, standing up and saying, “I’ll get it for you.”
Auntie felt embarrassed and rubbed her hands awkwardly on her apron. “Sorry to bother you, Xiao Wei. I was worried about burning the pot. I didn’t expect them to deliver it so quickly…”
“It’s okay, it’s okay. I’m full, too.” Ji Wei patted his stomach, smiled at Auntie, picked up his phone, and left.
After living here for so long, Ji Wei had successfully mastered the route from the complex gate to the base, and he quickly found Auntie’s order in the security office.
Auntie had ordered live seafood, including lively shrimp and crabs, and planned to make them salt-baked seafood for dinner.
Halfway through, a shrimp nearly jumped out, forcing Ji Wei to hold the bag by the mouth with both hands and carry it back.
Suddenly, someone called out from behind him.
“Hello, are you a resident here?”
Ji Wei turned around and saw a woman with a refined demeanor. Her hair was tied back in a simple bun, and she was carrying a discreet canvas bag. Her voice was neither loud nor soft, with a quiet elegance.
The woman smiled gently. “I don’t live here. I came here to look for my son, but I’ve been away for a while and got a little lost. I couldn’t get through to him.”
Hearing this, Ji Wei felt a sense of fate, a shared loss of direction.
Outside, the sun was shining brightly, and the temperature was a bit high. Ji Wei led the woman to a shady spot on the side of the road, and as they walked, he asked, “Where does your son live? I’m not sure. I get lost here often, too, and I’m only familiar with my own neighborhood.”
The woman smiled. “In Building 101, Zone B. Do you know how to get there?”
Ji Wei was stunned, his mouth hanging open for a long time.
Building 101 in Zone B? Wasn’t that the AVG base?
“I live in B101 too. I can take you there.”
The woman looked a little surprised. “What a coincidence—you live there as well?”
She followed the young man’s pace, noticing a light sheen of sweat forming on his forehead under the sun. She took a parasol out of her bag and opened it gently.
Ji Wei turned his head and saw sunlight spilling over the canvas bag in the woman’s hand, the logo of a well-known local university faintly visible on it.
The woman smiled at him and said, “Then do you happen to know my son? His name is Yin Sijue.”
