give me glory [e-sports]

That was the most embarrassing moment of my life.

But I also gained best friends.

—— "Ding Shengrong's Diary"

Ding Shengrong tightened his grip on the phone.

"Shengrong, hey, can you hear me, Ding Shengrong?"

"Auntie, I can hear you, I..."

"I can hear you so slowly, did you deliberately not answer the phone?"

"Auntie, no, I now..."

"What's going on with you recently? Have you got a girlfriend?"

Niu Baobao let out a chuckle, and Xiao An, who was sitting next to him, patted him, and Niu Baobao quickly put away his smile and sat upright.

Ding Shengrong said embarrassingly, "Auntie, I don't, it's not..."

"Then what's the matter with you, the money you sent back last month was too little, right? You want to starve your grandma to death with such a small amount of money."

"I changed jobs, and now there are only so many in a month..."

"Changed jobs?! What's going on? Didn't you do a good job!"

"Well, I was fired by the boss."

"Expulsion?! Ding Shengrong, you are so courageous now. You have only been out for a long time, and you have made such a fuss that you are going to be expelled!"

"The reason is very complicated, it's not a big deal..."

"It's not a big deal that can fire you!?"

Ding Shengrong didn't know how to explain, Zhao Xiu continued to ask, "Then what are you doing now, in a place like Kowloon City, it's only 500 a month?"

"Food and lodging included..."

"What job?"

"It's... e-sports."

"WTF?"

"Gaming."

"I don't understand, please speak more carefully."

Ding Shengrong took a deep breath and said, "It's just that some games will hold competitions, and playing competitions can make money."

"What kind of money can you make with 500 a month!"

"I just started training now, I haven't started yet, I will have money later..."

Zhao Xiu was mourning on the phone, "Why are you so idle now! Oh, it's a pity that your uncle and I still worry about you so much, what kind of [beep] thing are you playing games outside, Lao Ding's family will be lonely when it's over!"

Her voice was so loud that the trembling phone was trembling. Ding Shengrong felt that all the cells in his brain were trembling with her voice, and he had a severe headache due to the trembling.

"What's the situation?" Ding Zhengjian answered the phone, "Your aunt said you knew how to play games when you were outside?"

"No, this is a profession..." Ding Shengrong didn't know how to explain it to him, so he just wanted to hang up the phone quickly.He was standing next to the cabinet, and he didn't want to leave or not. His teammates were sitting less than two meters away from him, and everyone could clearly hear what was on the phone.

He has never felt so ashamed since he was a child.

"What the hell, can playing games be called a career?" Ding Zhengjian scolded, "Hurry up and find a serious job!"

Zhao Xiu was talking on the sidelines, and the voice came into the phone, "What's more, what's more, it's only 500 a month, and the money is too little."

"I have no plans to change for the time being." Ding Shengrong said, "I'm still busy, I..."

"What are you busy with, are you busy playing games? Waste!" Ding Zhengjian scolded, "What, busy!"

Ding Shengrong didn't speak.

"The Lai family boy also changed jobs?"

"Yes."

"Do you earn a lot?"

"I don't know."

"Anyway, I'm sure you'll make more money than your trash playing games!"

"..."

Ding Shengrong couldn't bear it anymore, tears were already rolling in his eyes, he blushed and said with a stiff neck, "I graduated from junior high school, and I dropped out of high school before I finished high school. I'm a waste to me. I have no education. I can What to do? I have nothing, I can only be a waste!"

As soon as he talked about dropping out of school, Ding Zhengjian and Zhao Xiu subconsciously felt a little guilty.

Ding Zhengjian stammered, "This... this is not the same thing!"

Ding Shengrong pursed his lips, but didn't speak, he was afraid that if he opened his mouth, he would cry.

Ding Zhengjian couldn't speak, Zhao Xiu continued to answer the phone, "Anyway, you can figure it out! What can you do with 500 yuan a month in a place like Kowloon, uncle and aunt are not doing it for you!"

"I will send all the money back. We will cover room and board, and my monthly 500 yuan will be sent back."

Zhao Xiu saw that he was determined, and the total amount was 500 a month—although Zhao Xiu was skeptical about his salary, and always felt that Ding Shengrong was lying to him, and it was impossible for him to only have such a small amount of money a month.But since Ding Shengrong can still hand in 500 every month, although it is much less than the previous 2000, it is quite enough in a place like Rong County, and Zhao Xiu doesn't want to push too hard, just in case something happens However, Ding Shan had to go all out with the two of them.

"In short, you can decide for yourself. You'd better change your job as soon as possible. If you are always willing to be like this... just keep playing games. Don't blame your uncle and aunt for not persuading you or caring about you."

Ding Shengrong said, "I don't need you to take care of me."

Zhao Xiu spat at him, "He has no conscience."

Ding Shengrong hung up the phone and locked the phone back in the cabinet.

The members of the team pretended not to hear anything, and tapped on the computer.

Ding Shengrong returned to his seat and tried to focus on the screen, but failed after a while.

After grinding for 10 minutes, Li Zhiyuan, who was rarely at the base, came to remind them that they could eat. Niu Baobao and the others cheered and stood up and ran to eat. Ding Shengrong followed them, took a box of lunch, and left the restaurant silently. walked to the balcony.

Before he had even eaten two bites of the meal, another person walked up to him and put the lunch box on the square railing, holding chopsticks in one hand and steamed buns in the other.

The two were silent for a while, Chen Ya'an swallowed the steamed buns in his mouth, and said, "It's better to have a tall building, and you can see far."

Ding Shengrong followed his gaze to look out, and the dots of lights gathered together at night, filling the whole majestic world.

"Very good." He answered.

"I've been in Kowloon for ten years." Chen Ya'an squinted his eyes comfortably while blowing the wind, "But I feel that I've always been a stranger to this city."

Ding Shengrong listened quietly.

"When I was going to work, my salary was actually not low. I could rent a small renovated one-bedroom near the central area, and I could go to various steakhouses and coffee shops with high-end prices but mediocre taste. I have been to many places, but I still feel that Kowloon City is very strange.”

"One morning when I came out of the gate of the community and was walking on the road, I suddenly felt that the road I could walk with my eyes closed every day was strange, the trees were strange, the buildings were strange, and the people passing by were also strange...I suddenly realized that I very lonely."

"I dedicated my youth to this city, but in this city, I got nothing. Nothing here belongs to me. I live here, but I don't fit in here."

Chen Ya'an took another bite of the steamed bun and swallowed it, "So I told my mother that I want to resign, and my mother said, that's fine, you can come back and take the civil service exam."

Speaking of this, Chen Ya'an smiled, "It is impossible to be a civil servant, and I will never be a civil servant in my life. But what can I do when I go back to my hometown? So I thought, anyway, it's like this, instead of being a fool for the rest of my life, Just do something fun."

Ding Shengrong said, "So you became a coach."

"That's right. I became a coach, and then my parents quarreled with me, and they even went to my company, saying that your game company did harm to people and made my good son obsessed with playing games..."

"At that time, I was very embarrassed and ashamed. I couldn't hold my head up when I walked outside for a long time, as if the whole world was looking at me and laughing at me... My parents felt relieved by making such a fuss, but they didn't know. I joined the game company because I like playing games."

Ding Shengrong remained silent.

"I explained to them, but if they didn't listen, they felt that my life was useless." Chen Ya'an smiled, "But I don't believe it."

Chen Ya'an turned to look at Ding Shengrong, "A person will do a lot of things in a lifetime that others can't understand. Those incomprehensions may come from their closed minds, their sinister hearts, and their excessive care ...But it doesn't matter, if you don't try it, how will you know if it will work?"

"You live your own life, they can't understand, let them make trouble, if they really care about you, your hard work is effective, they will be happy for you, if you just want to make trouble, then show them, know that you have something How stupid."

Chen Ya'an patted Ding Shengrong on the shoulder, "We have no other way to change other people's views except actions."

Chen Ya'an quickly finished the food in the lunch box, leaving the balcony for Ding Shengrong alone.

Ding Shengrong stared at the viaduct with endless streams, and was dumbfounded.

Chen Yueran went into the balcony, raised his hand and stuffed a pear into Ding Shengrong's arms.

Ding Shengrong looked at Lizi, then looked up at him again.

Chen Yueran said unhappily, "There is one left over, and I can't eat any more, so I might as well give it to you."

Ding Shengrong smiled, "I'm fine, Brother Ya'an talked to me just now, I'm already thinking about it."

Chen Yue burned his hair and said, "I don't care about you."

"Ah."

"Coach Chen told you about him?"

"Speaking of a little bit, he can be regarded as disobedient, and ran out to be a coach behind his family's back."

Chen Yueran lowered his head and kicked the small broken stones on the balcony, "Actually, I do too."

"You too?"

"I ran out with my family behind my back." Chen Yueran said, "Baby Niu has always been curious about whether Brother Chen and I are related, but actually we are not, it just happens to have the same surname. But at the beginning, he ran out and was driven out by YGOD and became homeless. Gui, it was indeed Brother Chen who took me in."

"My mother and I were the only ones at home. I wanted to play games and he wouldn't let me, so I saved up 500 yuan and ran out. I happened to meet YGOD recruiting newcomers, so I tried it. I was lucky and entered their youth training. battalion, and was selected as a substitute for the first team, I thought it was spring.”

Chen Yueran said, "In the end, the coach didn't want to change at all. I know he wants to be safe, but for professional players, no chance to play means no chance to stand out. I'm not interested in bonus endorsements, I just want to Play the game and prove to my mother that I can."

"I sat on the bench for almost half a season, but I still had no chance. Later, they told me to try to join YGOD's second team, but I didn't know that the first team had a replacement when I was preparing for the second team selection. .They didn't want to give me a chance."

"I went to argue with them, and they were annoyed. Later, when I got sick and made a mistake in the second-team trials, they threw it out for me and gave me a liquidated damages."

Chen Yueran leaned on the railing, "Actually, it's not easy for everyone in the team. Do you know Niu Baobao? Don't look at his heartless appearance, but it's not easy for him. His parents are both from the village. An elementary school teacher, who is quite educated, heard that Niu Baobao is going to become a professional player, so he almost broke his leg."

"You know, it's really tiring to be in this line of work, and you don't even dare to say that this is your dream. Because others will ridicule you and say that your dream is to play games."

Ding Shengrong said, "Then are you afraid?"

"afraid of what?"

"Fear of being told that."

"Cut." Chen Yueran said indifferently, "I, in this life, have never been afraid of anything. The only thing I want to say is that my precious keyboard is broken."

"keyboard?"

"It was that time when I was on the train, you helped me carry the box, and there was my keyboard inside. You pushed it so rudely at the time, I checked for a long time after I went back to see if the keyboard was broken."

Ding Shengrong remembered the keyboard on his desktop that was different from others, so it was so.

"You can't be afraid either." Chen Yueran said, "You are my assistant, you have to protect me, so you can't be afraid, it will slow down my steps."

Ding Shengrong smiled, "Well, I'm not afraid, thank you."

The two chatted for a while, and Ding Shengrong squeezed the pear in his hand, and suddenly said, "Do you know, in our hometown, pears are not allowed as gifts, not for marriage, not for friends, because pear means to leave, say The two will be separated."

"It's just right to leave." Chen Yueran sneered, "Your assistant is dead, and I don't want to be your partner at all."

Ding Shengrong couldn't help laughing out loud because he didn't mean what he said.

"Xiaoxiaoxiao, hurry up and practice heroes! If you can't keep me in the game, I will stab you to death!"

Chen Yueran ran back to the house angrily, Ding Shengrong looked at the wet drops on the pear, smiled and took a bite.

The skin is astringent, but the flesh is sweet and delicious.

The author has something to say: As long as there is Zhao Xiu, the number of words in this chapter will definitely exceed the limit. Does this count as my deep love for her...
