Glory [e-sports]

Wei Xiao was confused for a moment.

Was that so?

Close didn’t need a training partner, and instead needed a… ah, wait!

Wei Xiao instantly became happy, “Boss, you really know how to talk. Tell me more.”

Lu Feng followed the nonsense example he’d given before and added, “This shows that in their mind, you’re more important than a tutor.”

Wei Xiao: “Hey, that makes sense.”

Most of the gloom in his heart and mind was swept away, and his brain was clear.

His thoughts had indeed gone in the wrong direction. It wasn’t like how LU had said, but he’d forgotten his own hidden identity.

From Close’s point of view, the person who’d soloed with him was just a stranger called ‘One Lamp Grandmaster’.

The one Close didn’t need was just ‘One Lamp Grandmaster’, how was that related to him as Wei Xiao?

Unless Old Bai had revealed his hidden identity!

Wei Xiao pressed down the urge to demand answers and said patiently, “Come on then, let’s continue ranking.”

Boss was such a good person, he had to repay him properly!

LU: “You didn’t sleep well because of your girlfriend, right? Go sleep first.”

Wei Xiao: “It’s okay. I’m used to staying up late.”

LU: “Go sleep.”

It was two simple words, but it inexplicably gave Wei Xiao a familiar feeling.

Although his real contact with Lu Feng had only lasted for three days and three nights, the ‘density’ of their contact had led to him having a very good understanding of Lu Feng.

For example, the way he always meant what he said…

It made people…

Really want to provoke him!

Wei Xiao was cheeky, “Boss, your tone really sounds like my girlfriend.”

LU: “……”

Wei Xiao felt that he’d taken advantage of Lu Feng and felt inexplicably delighted, “Really, she’s super domineering and loves to manage people.”

Lu Feng stared at that line of words for a long time, “You don’t like it?”

Wei Xiao: “That’s not the case. Her mouth is fierce, but in fact, her heart is very soft.”

Otherwise, why would he accompany a newbie like him to solo for 48 hours, and let him hold him as he liked while they slept for 24 hours? Tsk, it was the first time he’d slept with anyone else in his life. From this point of view, calling Close his girlfriend once was actually quite reasonable and justified.

Lu Feng looked down. His hands typed out one line on the keyboard––then why did you leave.

Of course, it was impossible for him to send this out. He pressed the cancel button and changed it to, “I have something to do over here. I’m logging off first.”

Wei Xiao hadn’t played around with him enough and was quite regretful, “That’s it?”

LU: “Mm.”

Wei Xiao couldn’t help making another impudent comment, “I won’t lie, your cold ‘mm’ is very similar to hers.”

LU: “……”

Wei Xiao seemed to sense that he’d been too impudent and hurriedly explained, “About that, I’m not teasing you, ah… I’m just…caught up in the moment. Look, I have a girlfriend, I’m a straight man…” He just had a trashy mouth.

LU: “I know.”

Then, he quit the team room.

Wei Xiao stared at those two words for a moment, and there was a row of question marks in his head––

Boss, what do you know?

But he was already gone, and there was no way to ask. Wei Xiao was soon preoccupied by the big notion he had in his mind.

He made a call straight to the FTW base.

Bai Cai, who’d just bathed, changed, eaten breakfast, and gotten into bed, “F*ck!”

Wei Xiao: “Comrade Bai Cai, I’ll ask and you answer. If you lie to me, I’ll send you up to the hot search in the next second.”

The topics ‘Glory god-level support God Bai’ and ‘Gossip Emperor’ put together would definitely be very popular.

How could Brother Cai sleep? He just wanted to fight desperately with a certain piece of work over the phone. “What madness are you on about now?”

Could it be that he’d been overstimulated by that sentence from Close and wanted to mutually self-destruct with him? But the problem was, the one who’d stimulated him was Close! Why was Wei Xiao coming over to pull him in too?!

Wei Xiao: “How did Close know that that thief was me?”

His question was phrased very cleverly. He didn’t ask if Close knew or not, and instead directly asked how.

Bai Cai, who hadn’t slept all night and then given a scare by him, fell into the trap. “He… he…”

Wei Xiao sneered.

Bai Cai trembled, “He didn’t know at first, but he recognized you halfway through the game!”

F*ck, laozi was so smart. He could even smooth out something like this.

Wei Xiao paused for a moment.

There was some logic to this cabbage’s words…

Those 48 hours of solo between him and Close had left him unable to forget Close. It must also be vivid in Close’s memories, too.

Although two years had passed, it was very hard to change one’s personal style.

In particular, he was also stimulated by Close, and that no-holds-barred conduct of his was difficult to hide.

Bai Cai took the opportunity to clear his name, “I really didn’t sell you out. Would I dare? I was also really shocked. When the two of you first started, the captain said, ‘This is Wei Xiao, right.’, my god, I was almost scared into peeing my pants, brother!”

Wei Xiao: “……”

It was a very graphic description.

In fact, Bai Cai was really speaking a big truth from his heart. It was just that he’d changed the scene and timing, “The captain asked with so much certainty. Tell me, how was I supposed to answer? It would be useless even if I didn’t say anything! He already knew the answer!”

The corner of Wei Xiao’s mouth curved a little, “He really recognized me at a glance?”

Bai Cai: “Really. It’s more true and genuine than gold and silver.”

The corner of Wei Xiao’s mouth drooped again, “Then, why did he say that last sentence to me?”

Bai Cai: “!”

He’d forgotten about that mess.

Wei Xiao lowered his voice and simulated Lu Feng’s cold voice, “Tell Wei Xiao, I don’t need a training partner.”

Bai Cai: “………”

It was really motherf*cking similar!

“Cough.” Bai Cai did feel a bit of heartache for Wei Xiao regarding this. He persuaded him, “Don’t overthink it, I think…”

Wei Xiao: “Hm?”

Bai Cai had already thought about what to say while he was taking a bath, “Think about it, at the time, the captain was using Old Yue’s account. If he’d really won, then wouldn’t you have to become Yue Wenle’s lifetime training partner?”

Wei Xiao wouldn’t be misled like this, “With you as witness, if he really wanted me, would I really not accompany him?”

Bai Cai: “……”

Can you f*cking use human words!

“Speaking of which.” Wei Xiao caught onto the key point, “Why did Close have to pretend to be God Le?”

Bai Cai was really afraid of this piece of work’s sharp intuition!

He could only forge on ahead, “Who is our God Lu?! If ordinary people hear that they’re soloing with him, wouldn’t they be scared into losing half their wits?”

Wei Xiao considered it, “That’s true. There aren’t that many brave and upright men like me out there.”

The corner of Bai Cai’s lips was twitching, but he could only go along with him in order to continue living, “That’s right.”

“After talking back and forth, Close just doesn’t think much of me.” Wei Xiao sighed.

Bai Cai racked his brains and couldn’t figure out how to comfort him, “That’s not it…”

“Say, do you think that there’s a possibility that,” Wei Xiao thought of what LU had said and asked Bai Cai, “Close doesn’t need me to be his training partner, but needs me to do something else instead?”

Bai Cai: “Ah?”

Wei Xiao cleared his throat and explained, “It’s like this. I was just accompanying my boss to rank. My boss is very considerate and kind, and he comforted me when he saw that my mood wasn’t right. I couldn’t say that I was given a hit by Close, so I made up a reason and said that I argued with my girlfriend…”

Bai Cai’s face was mystified as he listened to this.

Holy shit, what was f*cking up with this?

If his brain hadn’t broken down, then Wei Xiao’s boss was his God Lu!

You brat, you lied about God Lu being your girlfriend in front of God Lu?

This, this…

Wei Xiao hinted, “Don’t you think that what my boss said is quite reasonable?”

Bai Cai: “………………………………”

Wei Xiao: “Old Bai? Is the signal bad?”

The signal really wasn’t very good. Bai Cai felt that he needed to plug an antenna into his head in order to properly receive this amazing amount of information.

––Didn’t need a tutor because they only wanted a boyfriend.

Was this really f*cking something that their great demon king had said?!

Bai Cai just wanted to retire from the jianghu (delete his alt account) now. His brain was dirty and unclean, and he was not worthy of writing ‘love and hate’ stories for the little girl fans of the Glory circle!

Wei Xiao: “What’s the matter with your base? It’s a proper castle, yet it doesn’t even have signal?”

Bai Cai: “I think…”

Wei Xiao secretly hinted at him, “Say, if Close doesn’t need a training partner, does it mean he needs a…”

Bai Cai shuddered, “It’s impossible for it to be a boyfriend!”

Wei Xiao: “What are you thinking about? I’m talking about an opponent, an equal, well-matched opponent! It’s not that I’m boasting, but I feel that I have more potential than Old G.” The second half of the sentence was a little sour.

“……………………”

Brother Cai finally came back to his senses.

His confused mind seized onto this one reliable thing in the chaos and relied on it to find his way out.

“It’s not an opponent.” Bai Cai’s heart was finally steady, “It’s a teammate, you fool!”

Wei Xiao was stunned.

Bai Cai had thought it through completely. He now understood the situation thoroughly and was fully on board, “Does God Lu need an opponent? He can get a whole handful of them with a single grab in the world competitions, okay? What he needs is a teammate! Teammate, got it? Close is calling for you to come back!”

It took a long time for Wei Xiao to find his voice again, “You’re the one that’s overthinking it…”

Bai Cai sneered, “That’s fine. I’ll go and find the captain in a bit and ask him face to face.”

Wei Xiao: “Don’t!”

Bai Cai: “Didn’t you say I was overthinking it?”

It was rare for Wei Xiao to be at a loss for words. He choked for a while, then said, “I won’t play professionally.”

Bai Cai rolled his eyes.

Wei Xiao: “Look, it’s already January. I’m about to go back to school. It wasn’t easy for me to get a score of 985. How could I stop studying just like that?”

It was fine if he didn’t say it, but Bai Cai’s heart felt stifled as soon as it was said.

It was enough that this kid’s talent for games was really high. He was even a learning bully. Comparing people with people really made one angry!

“Honestly, you not going back to school is the right thing to do. Someone like you imparting knowledge and educating the people?”

Wei Xiao had entered a well-known teaching university. Thinking of how this piece of work would stand in front of a podium in the future, Bai Cai just felt that he might as well come and play professional e-sports so as to save the motherland’s flowers from disaster.

Wei Xiao: “What do you know?! I’m very suitable to be a teacher. If they have to endure social beatings in advance, it won’t hurt when they’re beaten up later.”

Bai Cai was too lazy to get into this with him, “Don’t use school as an excuse. If you want to suspend school, FTW can provide you with one-stop service for that.”

Wei Xiao yawned, “Ah, it’s not early anymore. I’m going to sleep.”

Bai Cai: “You…”

There was a click. The other side had hung up.

Wei Xiao dropped his cell phone, hugged the husky’s big head and rubbed it again and again.

“Close wants me to be his teammate?”

“And he wants to sign me?”

Soybean: “Ao!”

Wei Xiao patted his big head, “You don’t understand sh*t.”

But the corner of his lips couldn’t help but lift up.

“Sleep.” Wei Xiao released Soybean and drilled into bed.

This time, he fell asleep and slept very soundly. He didn’t even dream.

It was already six in the afternoon by the time he woke up.

Bai Cai sent him a WeChat message, “Come play doubles.”

Wei Xiao had just finished getting something to eat. He replied, “Let me first see if my boss is around or not.”

Bai Cai glanced at the captain in the training room and thought to himself: He definitely isn’t there.

Wei Xiao: “The boss isn’t online. Let’s do it.”

Bai Cai reminded him, “I’m streaming. Watch your mouth a bit.”

Wei Xiao: “Got it.”

It wasn’t the first time Bai Cai had taken Wei Xiao with him while streaming.

His fans started filling up the scrolling comments as soon as they saw Wei Xiao’s ID.

“The jungler king is here. Caicai, quickly have him take thief!”

“Who exactly is this friend of Caicai’s? They’re really good and very doting.”

“Yeah, yeah. He’s the only one who dares to let our Caicai play mid-lane!”

“They key point is that he even carries Caicai!”

As a support king, Bai Cai had extremely obvious shortcomings. For example, he couldn’t play mage-type heroes.

However, that didn’t prevent Brother Cai from having a heart that wanted to carry, so he would occasionally pick a mage hero in order to experience the excitement.

In these kinds of high-level ranked games, Brother Cai’s mage was notoriously cancerous. His teammates would want to die as soon as it was taken out.

It was only when he played doubles with Wei Xiao that there was even such a thing as a win rate.

Bai Cai had just finished choosing his hero when his scrolling comments exploded.

“Holy shit!”

“Holy shit holy shit holy shit!”

Countless shocked emoticons were mixed in with the most important sentence, “Brother Cai, you and God Lu have crashed cars!”

Bai Cai saw it at a glance, “Is it so… coincidental?”

The scrolling comments piled up, “God Ning is streaming. He’s double queueing with our God Lu!”

“What a deal, what a deal! Fratricide between teammates or something is the most exciting!”

Ning Zhehan hadn’t been in the team for long, and his live broadcast popularity wasn’t high enough.

In any case, teammates needed to go through a running-in period. Xiang Liu took advantage of the time when Lu Feng and Ning Zhehan were playing doubles and turned on the live stream for Little Ning so that he could gain some popularity at the same time.

They hadn’t expected to end up matched against Bai Cai and Wei Xiao.

Ning Zhehan: I’m not going to lie, I’m a little scared [shiver]

Juurensha: Bai Cai, God Lu definitely wants a bf

apricot: In the last chapter, I was surprised the misunderstanding had been resolved so quickly. I was mistaken…
