Chapter 467:
Their prowess in gaming was notable, quickly outmatching other teams. They soared through the rankings, clinching the top positions at the Esaham University championship and ultimately securing the title.
This league brought together competitors from various educational institutions across Esaham, spanning both universities and high schools, compelling Neal’s team to maintain their edge.
Among these were high school students whose gaming talents were particularly remarkable.
Aiming for both glory and victory, the team saw Sloane notably increase her gaming hours of late.
“There’s over a month until the league kicks off in January,” Fernanda said. “You’ve got plenty of time to gear up. No need to overdo it just yet.”
Neal responded with a simple nod.
At Sloane’s insistence on craving spicy ramen, the group decided to dine at a restaurant that offered such fare.
When they placed their orders, Sloane didn’t hesitate to add a few more dishes to the table.
Alex couldn’t hide his astonishment as he observed Sloane, garbed in a Lolita outfit, eagerly ordering the spicy food. The juxtaposition of her delicate appearance with her unconventional choice in food baffled him. Yet, Sloane relished every bite.
The meal was already underway when Bonita and her roommate arrived at the eatery.
Upon spotting Neal, Bonita felt a bit flustered.
Her thoughts drifted to their enigmatic connection, causing her cheeks to warm and her ears to redden.
It was a busy evening in the compact restaurant. Bonita, feeling too shy to approach, merely waved at Fernanda and the others before settling at a table near the entrance with her roommate.

Feeling unusually self-conscious, Bonita stole glances at Neal, who was deeply engrossed in savoring his spicy pork chops, eating with an intensity as if it had been ages since his last meal. Suddenly, Neal stopped eating and picked up his phone.
He had just set it down when Bonita’s phone buzzed with a new notification.
She opened her alternate WhatsApp account to find Neal had sent her a photo of his spicy pork chops.
Below the picture was a message saying, “I had a good meal today.” The message was casual, like a boyfriend updating his girlfriend about his day.
A smile naturally formed on Bonita’s lips.
She recalled Neal’s live stream from the previous day, where she had seen instant noodles by his side, and messaged him to eat well. Now, she realized this picture was his playful response.
Elbowing her gently, Bonita’s roommate teased with a wide grin, “Bonita, what would you like to order? This is the third time I’m asking. Are you so starstruck by your heartthrob that you can’t even speak?”
