Wei Xiao clicked on the voice call function in WeChat.

Generally speaking, Lu Feng would switch his cell phone to ‘do not disturb’ mode while he slept, so this call wouldn’t wake him up if he was asleep.

Obviously though, Brother Cai had been right. Lu Feng picked up.

Wei Xiao breathed lightly, “Didn’t you say you were sleeping?”

Lu Feng: “Couldn’t sleep.”

Wei Xiao: “……”

He said he was going to sleep, but then he couldn’t fall asleep. Alright then, it was very logical.

They listened to the sound of each other’s breathing and started to miss each other all over again. The two of them fell silent for a while, and it was Lu Feng who spoke first, “It was a well played game.”

Wei Xiao’s hand clenched involuntarily around the cell phone. He leaned against the red wooden pillar and asked, “Is that LU person you?”

He had already determined the truth in his heart, but he still wanted to ask.

He kept feeling as though this wasn’t something his captain would do, but once he thought about if the captain had done these things, he strangely felt moved by it.

Lu Feng didn’t say anything.

Wei Xiao felt a little bit disappointed, “If it’s not you, then forget it. It’s nothing.”

It wasn’t the captain…

Sure enough, the captain wouldn’t do something so pointless and give out gifts with those numbers…

Lu Feng: “It’s me.”

Wei Xiao: “!”

Lu Feng: “If you’re talking about the LU who is number one on the support rankings, then it’s indeed me.”

He repeated it, speaking in such detail and still using such a low, gentle voice to say it.

Wei Xiao: F*ck!

He already missed him, but now he missed him even more!

A waiter just happened to pass by. They seemed to be a Glory fan, and when they saw Wei Xiao’s team uniform, their eyes brightened slightly.

Wei Xiao pushed himself up and went to find a more secluded place.

Lu Feng noticed it, “You haven’t returned back to the base yet?”

Wei Xiao lowered his voice, “We’re at a hot pot restaurant.”

Lu Feng understood. He smiled, “You deserve to have a good meal after winning the game.”

Wei Xiao endured it for a long time but wasn’t able to hold back, “Captain…”

“Mm.”

“Do you know what 5201314 means?”

Lu Feng: “I know.”

Wei Xiao’s heart leapt.

Lu Feng spoke in a low voice, “I love you, forever.”

Wei Xiao: “………………”

Lu Feng’s voice held traces of a smile, “I didn’t get it wrong, right?”

Wei Xiao couldn’t quite catch his breath, “Are you trying to make me fly over there and kiss you right now?”

Lu Feng stopped teasing him, “Don’t think about it, you have a game tomorrow.”

How could Wei Xiao stop thinking about it? His heart was completely out of control right now, jumping around like crazy!

Fortunately, Wei Xiao still understood what was more important even at critical moments.

He tried to distract himself, attempting to act like a person again, “Why did you send out so many gifts? The platform also takes a cut.”

Even if it were gifts given through the official live broadcast room, the platform would still take a cut, and the cut wasn’t small. The final sum that would reach the team was only a number that had been cut down several times.

However, Lu Feng didn’t give him any chance to act like a person.

He said quietly, “I wanted to see you take first place.”

Wei Xiao took a deep breath, “Captain, don’t be like this, it’s making my legs go soft.”

Lu Feng: “…………”

If the conversation went on like this, one of them would either fly back from M Country, or fly to M Country from China.

Neither option was good. They needed to pull the brakes!

Lu Feng: “Go and eat, I’m going to sleep.”

Wei Xiao also didn’t dare to tease him further, “Okay…”

After hanging up, Wei Xiao sent Lu Feng a WeChat message.

Lu Feng got out of bed to take a bath and caught a glimpse of that line of text––Taking number one on the popularity ranking is meaningless. Wait for me to take countless real number ones.

Lu Feng stooped to pick up his cell phone and typed out one word, “Okay.”

Before going back to their room at the restaurant, Wei Xiao first went to the bathroom to adjust his expression. He tried not to smile too sweetly, tried not to let people see any flaws, and tried to put on a serious face!

As soon as Brother Cai saw him, he said, “You were just giving the captain a report, why are you smiling so excessively…”

Great. The corners of Brother Xiao’s lips pressed down, and he was no longer so happy, “Shut up!”

The pink bubbles in his heart had disappeared by the time he finished swearing at the vegetable.

Bai Cai ridiculed him, “You’re just making a phone call, yet you have to avoid everyone while doing so. Do you think you’re still a primary school student or something?”

For once, Wei Xiao actually didn’t get his point.

Bai Cai: “… Sneaking off to find the class teacher to make a report.”

Wei Xiao: “…………”

He looked at the simple and stupid Brother Cai and didn’t know if he felt gratified, or wanted to smash him over the head.

And this was the Gossip Emperor? Had he fed all of his little articles to the dogs?

In fact, Bai Cai really couldn’t be blamed for this. Wei Xiao’s level of stickiness towards Lu Feng had been even stronger back when he hadn’t yet had his sexual awakening.

Brother Cai had experienced countless hardships and had already become ‘fearless in the face of danger’.

Chen Feng was scared that the cat would be let out of the bag and beckoned. “Come and eat.”

Wei Xiao sat down and picked at his food.

Little Ning held back for a long time and finally couldn’t hold back any longer, “Brother Xiao… is LU your girlfriend?”

Wei Xiao: “……” It was fortunate that he wasn’t eating properly. Otherwise, he’d have sprayed out a mouthful of food all over the table. The 699, 899 yuan beef would all be wasted blindly just like that.

Ning Zhehan stared at him with big, curious eyes.

Wei Xiao sipped at his fruit juice to suppress his shock, “Why would you think that.”

Little Ning still remembered. “Didn’t you say that you had a girlfriend before?” And he’d said that she was a strong woman and career orientated. It was just that they’d never seen her face.

Wei Xiao managed to dredge out this segment from the depths of his memory.

He had indeed pretended that his boss was his girlfriend before.

His boss was LU.

In a sense, Little Ning had discovered the truth.

Wei Xiao cleared his throat, “We split up a long time ago.”

Little Ning: “……”

Wei Xiao spoke earnestly and sincerely, “Little Ning, have we won first place in the regular season, taken a grand slam in the playoffs, and brought back the championship trophy?”

Ning Zhehan shook his head blankly.

Wei Xiao’s expression was cold, “Then why are you thinking about falling in love.”

Little Ning was scared, “No-no-no, I don’t dare!”

Wei Xiao was satisfied, “Eat, then.”

Everyone: “………”

Clearly, you were the one who was spreading gossip. How did it turn into Ning Zhehan falling in love early?

Chen Feng glanced at Wei Xiao and said in his heart: Little Lunatic Wei, please act like a person.

You’re almost up in heaven with your relationship, so don’t you feel embarrassed telling others not to think about such things? Where’s your dignity!

After eating hot pot, the hot and steamy FTW team returned back to the base.

There would be a match tomorrow. Chen Feng didn’t mention reviewing the game and only told them not to stay up too late.

Today’s game wasn’t very significant. LH was too weak, and Quiet had been too crazy, leading his teammates to crush their opponents like a bulldozer. They wouldn’t be able to find problems in the replay, and it might even make them overconfident.

Tomorrow’s game was still within their group cycle. The team they were up against was called GOQ. They were stronger than LH, but they were still a team that padded the bottom of the group.

As long as FTW could maintain today’s momentum, winning the game wouldn’t be difficult.

FTW only had these two games this week, making it a relatively easy week for them.

However, their next week would be hell mode. FTW would be up against 3U, and it would be an away game. It was difficult to say whether they would win or lose.

Chen Feng didn’t use these things to scare them. He just wanted them to maintain their state and win tomorrow’s game.

They played as a team for a while, and then they all went to bed at one o’clock in the morning to conserve their energy.

Bai Cai looked at Wei Xiao, “Not going to sleep?”

Wei Xiao glanced at the time, “You go sleep. I’m going to play for a bit longer.”

There was nobody else in the training room. Bai Cai looked at him for a while, “You…”

Wei Xiao lifted his head to look at him, “Double queue?”

At the end of the day, Bai Cai was still uneasy and sat down, “Come on.”

The two of them double queued on the international server. Wei Xiao had always maintained a very high standard of play, and there was no trace of entertainment at all––he didn’t let the opponents off when he could crush them, and he wasn’t careless even when the win was guaranteed.

After two or three rounds, the passers-by were tortured until they were crying.

If Bai Cai still couldn’t sense something, he wouldn’t deserve to claim to have known him for over two years.

In fact, Bai Cai could already feel that Wei Xiao was a little distracted while still in the car.

This fellow was used to camouflaging his feelings, and he was also particularly strong. Once he held up the umbrella to provide shelter, he would guard everyone beneath it. Even if there was a storm outside the umbrella, even if he was drenched, even if he himself was crumbling, he would absolutely maintain the shelter under the umbrella.

Two years ago, Wei Xiao had held up the youth training camp team that had shortcomings everywhere in the team just like this.

Two years later, he was now guarding FTW underneath his umbrella.

But, in fact, Wei Xiao was only 19 years old, even younger than him.

Bai Cai’s heart felt astringent. He said, “Don’t give yourself too much pressure.”

Wei Xiao’s hand paused very conspicuously.

Bai Cai noticed it and comforted him, “FTW isn’t that weak. Brother Tang’s level is very high, and your jungler is very stable. What’s there to be afraid of?”

On the surface, that’s how it appeared.

Tang Chen was a champion from last year’s domestic competition, and there was nothing that could be said about his abilities.

Ning Zhehan, as a new member of the team, was growing very fast and performed very well.

There was even less need to mention Wei Xiao, whose performance as a jungler was incredibly stable.

Bai Cai and Yue Wenle were old partners, and they’d passed the trials of the domestic competition together last year.

They weren’t weak to the point where they were unable to withstand a breeze.

However, when it came to their internal state, Bai Cai didn’t dare to think too deeply about it.

Tang Chen wanting to retire was entirely because his body could no longer hold up.

Ning Zhehan also had limited experience. His emotions were easily incited, but it was also easy for him to fall into a slump.

Wei Xiao was excellent at playing jungler, but his cooperation with Yue Wenle had always been flawed. It was something everyone could sense, but unfortunately, there was no helping it. This was something that needed to be trained over time.

Bai Cai could think of all these things, so how could Wei Xiao not be aware of them? On the surface, he was careless and fierce, but was he really that confident in his heart?

He shouldered the pressure of the captain’s departure from the team, holding onto the belief that they could only win. Was Wei Xiao really as at ease as he appeared?

The more Bai Cai thought about it, the more flustered he was.

“What are you thinking about over there.” Wei Xiao clicked on the queue button and glanced at him out of the corner of his eyes.

Bai Cai: “……”

Wei Xiao locked in the berserker thief and spoke casually, “There’s something on my mind, but it’s not what you think.”

Bai Cai didn’t believe him, “Pretend, continue to pretend.”

The game entered the matching interface. Wei Xiao said lightly, “You’re insisting on making me tell the truth, hey.”

Bai Cai stared at him and couldn’t tell if he was serious or not, “Other than Glory, what else can you have on your mind?”

Wei Xiao fought against a jungle creep while tossing a bomb at Bai Cai, “Recently, I’ve suddenly discovered that…”

Brother Cai was all ears, “Hm?”

Wei Xiao’s voice was very calm, “I don’t like women.”

Bai Cai: “??????”

He retreated sharply and looked at Wei Xiao with an expression full of shock.

F*ck, where was this going? He just wanted to help a fellow brother work through some problems. How come the conversation was taking such a strange turn?!

Wei Xiao squinted at him, “Wake up, I don’t like women, but I won’t start liking a vegetable.”

Bai Cai didn’t nitpick about whether or not he was a human being. He let out a breath and leaned over, “What exactly is wrong with you?!”

Wei Xiao manipulated the berserker thief, flaunting excellent operations that were being executed flawlessly even as his mouth was spouting something shocking, “It’s nothing much, I’ve lived for 19 years and suddenly discovered my sexual orientation.”

Bai Cai lost his voice for three full seconds, then finally managed to speak, “You… like men?”

Wei Xiao: “Yeah.”

Bai Cai sat to the side in a daze. His mind felt like it was stuffed with wool. All kinds of threads were wound together, and he couldn’t make sense of anything.

“Then…” Bai Cai suddenly had a flash of inspiration and realized, “You can’t have secretly fallen in love with the captain, right?”

Wei Xiao: “…………”

In fact, it wasn’t a secret love.

Bai Cai understood everything. At this moment, he understood everything!

It was no wonder that Wei Xiao was so restless, no wonder Wei Xiao was in a daze, no wonder Wei Xiao was acting so abnormally!

Brother Cai was distressed, “You didn’t get rejected by the captain, did you?”

Wei Xiao’s hand shook, and the kill that had almost been in hand ran off.

The more Bai Cai thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case, “You-you’re saying that you… ah, you… ah…”

Wei Xiao was afraid that his brain would come up with too much nonsense and that he would end up scared to death instead of crushed by the pressure of the competition. He said quickly, “No!” He wasn’t lying, the captain hadn’t rejected him.

Bai Cai was obviously misled. He felt that Wei Xiao meant that there had been no confession and was greatly relieved. His face started to gain back some of the color he’d lost, “Damn, you scared the hell out of me!”

Wei Xiao continued to kill and set fire across the canyon, “So, God Bai, can you rest assured and go to bed?”

Bai Cai: “Like hell I’m assured!”

This was even more worrying.

His fellow brother had a secret crush on their captain. What would they do if it fell apart?

Would FTW still be there the next day?

Bai Cai couldn’t sit still. He got up and walked around the training room, muttering to himself, “When did it start? Was it after the captain left the team?”

That had to be it. According to his intuition, that moment had been the most likely point!

Liking a person was something that wasn’t always felt when they spent every day together. Once they separated, that feeling couldn’t be suppressed any longer.

He’d seen too many of those ‘reunion after a brief parting is as sweet as a honeymoon’ articles!

Bai Cai, as a well-informed straight man, helped give Wei Xiao his advice, “Old Wei, you have to hold on, you can’t confess to him right now!”

Wei Xiao found it difficult to get off this tiger he’d jumped on. His emotions were complicated, “Yeah….”

xiin: *cringe* Wei Xiaoxiao, this is what lying gets you…
