The Road to Godhood in Honor of Kings

"Who said that? Here..." Sima Yu said, then handed the cake to Han Cheng's lips in the darkness. Han Cheng was a little surprised. Not bad, quite accurate...

After taking a bite of the not-so-tasty cake, Han Cheng suddenly realized something.

"Um, if I take a bite of this cake, how are you supposed to eat it? After all, you're the birthday person, so there has to be some cake for you..." Han Cheng muttered.

"It's alright, I don't mind," Sima Yu laughed. "Ah, come on, feed me a bite..."

"This..." Han Cheng handed over the cake with a hint of helplessness. Because it was too dark, Sima Yu couldn't eat it at all...

"Never mind, you can have it." Han Cheng said, reaching for the cake to hand to Sima Yu, but then, he accidentally dropped it on the ground...

"I'll go turn on the light," Han Cheng said.

"Are you in such a hurry?" Sima Yu said. "So what if the cake fell? We haven't even eaten it yet."

"Of course..." Han Cheng muttered, thinking that he needed to turn on the lights quickly to ease the awkward situation...

"Hey, Xiao Han, how's your relationship with Xiao Meng going lately?" Sima Yu suddenly asked, her tone surprisingly a little embarrassed.

"Uh, well, I don't really know how to answer that question..." Han Cheng muttered. "It's just like that, actually, the relationship between the two of us is very pure..."

"A romantic relationship?" Sima Yu asked.

"You can't say that. She said she likes me, but I haven't really expressed it. I'm not quite sure what I feel either, but I know I don't dislike her. I do have quite a bit of affection for her," Han Cheng muttered to himself. These kinds of questions always gave Han Cheng a lot of trouble.

"Oh, I see..." Sima Yu looked as if he had just realized something.

"What's wrong? Is there a problem?" Han Cheng asked, feeling that Sima Yu was acting strangely...

"Oh, it's nothing, I was just curious, just asking casually, gossiping a bit..." Sima Yu laughed.

Although Sima Yu said that, Han Cheng still felt that it wasn't that simple. But thinking about it, it made sense. Since he and Xu Xiaomeng had already reached this point, why think so much? Although Sima Yu was a good person, Han Cheng wouldn't be so greedy as to want more than he had.

"I must be single-minded," Han Cheng thought to himself.

"However, would you be interested in spending some time with me tonight?" Sima Yu suddenly asked.

"Huh?" Han Cheng was taken aback. This was quite contradictory...

"Don't worry, I won't do anything. Why such a big reaction? I've just been alone for a while and want to chat with someone," Sima Yu said with a smile.

Seeing Sima Yu's innocent smile, and knowing it was a girl's request, plus he'd have to sleep on the sofa when he got back, Han Cheng decided to stay here for the night.

But where should he sleep? Han Cheng was a little conflicted; he didn't want to keep sleeping on the sofa.

Of course, it wasn't time to sleep yet. Han Cheng and Sima Yu sat on the bed, pouring out their hearts to each other. Sima Yu spoke first, chatting with Han Cheng about everything under the sun. Han Cheng was also a talkative boy, so the two chatted until very late, until finally…

They lay in bed asleep, naturally doing nothing. Han Cheng didn't even take off his clothes or cover himself with a blanket, and neither did Sima Yu. Although it was a little uncomfortable, it wasn't a big problem.

-

The next day.

Han Cheng got up and found his neck incredibly stiff. He realized he hadn't even used a pillow last night; he'd just put a coat under his head, and that was how he got a stiff neck...

"How did you sleep last night?" Sima Yu asked, stretching.

"It's not good, my neck..." Han Cheng said, rubbing his neck, "It's so sore, I can't move it..."

"I told you to use a pillow, but you wouldn't. Now you have a stiff neck," Sima Yu said, pouting.

"Well, I'm going home now. I'm not really used to being here," Han Cheng said.

"No, let's have a meal first before you leave," Sima Yu said.

"This..." Han Cheng hesitated for a moment.

After a few minutes.

At Sima Yu's dining table.

"Here, have some of this." Sima Yu said, placing a dish on Han Cheng's plate.

"Hmm, well, your team must be pretty confident in the recent matches, right?" Han Cheng said while eating.

"It's alright, just do your best." Sima Yu laughed.

"Tsk tsk, your team has a fairly balanced strength, and all the members are quite strong..."

-

"Where did you go last night?" Xu Xiaomeng asked in an accusatory tone.

"Huh? I didn't go anywhere. I just went to a friend's house to celebrate their birthday..." Han Cheng said, his face completely calm.

"Friend, is it a male friend or a female friend?" Xu Xiaomeng still asked in an accusatory tone.

"Why worry so much? It's just a birthday celebration..." Han Cheng muttered.

"Tsk tsk, there's more to this than meets the eye. Tell me properly, is it a girl or a guy? I'd guess it's probably a girl, right? And she even spent the night at someone's house..." Xu Xiaomeng said casually.

"Okay, it really is a girl. We just celebrated her birthday, and that's all..." Han Cheng said.

"It can't just be the two of you, right?"

"How did you know...?" Han Cheng looked completely bewildered...

"It really is true. Tell me, have you been having affairs outside? If you don't explain yourself clearly today, don't even think about leaving here alive..."

"Sister, that's so cruel..."

-

"Does it really have to be a solo match?" Han Cheng asked helplessly. Xu Xiaomeng insisted on a solo match with him to vent her dissatisfaction, so Han Cheng had no choice but to accept the challenge.

“It has to be a solo match,” Xu Xiaomeng said calmly. “You betrayed me, I’m not happy, and I’m going to get revenge on you.”

"Sister, you're being unreasonable. I didn't betray you..." Han Cheng looked helpless, but still obediently started a game with Xu Xiaomeng.

"The scabbard is missing!" Xu Xiaomeng immediately selected Lanling King. Lanling King is a very strong hero in one-on-one combat. His first skill deals extremely explosive damage, especially when attacking a single target, where the damage is randomly multiplied several times. His second skill marks the target and then stuns them upon attack, and also deals explosive finishing damage. His ultimate skill also allows him to become invisible...

However, although Lanling King has many semi-tank builds, he is still an assassin after all, and as an assassin, he is bound to be crushed by warriors.

Han Cheng originally wanted to play Cao Cao, but then he thought about it and realized that he would win too easily that way. Otherwise, if he won against Xu Xiaomeng so easily, Xu Xiaomeng would probably be unhappy. As for the other heroes, Yang Jian was also an option, and then there was Zhao Yun…

Han Cheng finally decided to duel with Lü Bu. Lü Bu was very strong in one-on-one combat, but his weaknesses were also obvious. This way, even if he lost, Xu Xiaomeng wouldn't say that he deliberately threw the fight; she would just say that Lü Bu was too clumsy...

"I was afraid you'd be lonely and cold, so I'll reluctantly spend Christmas with you!" Lu Bu, dressed in Christmas attire, came out carrying a Christmas tree.
