The King's Return

云霄战队原本排在积分榜的第四,墨决是第五，由于这场比赛云霄0:2输给墨决,直接被扣4分，而排在他后面的队伍本周的比赛赢下了4分,这就使云霄的排名一下子掉到了No.6。

Currently, the top six teams all have the backing of wealthy clubs—for example, the No.1 Dynasty team is backed by the Huaxia Club, Lihuo and Frost Moon are teams under the Tongque and Seven Star Grass Clubs respectively, and Mo Jue is behind the Dragon Club. Yin, behind the national beauty is the women's e-sports club Guose Tianxiang, and the Yunxiao team also has the powerful backing of the Fengse club.

Among the ten teams in the first professional league of Dubu, four were non-governmental teams. Jinghong’s performance was always at the bottom. Jiansong captain Lin Shuangcheng did not pursue the championship. The remaining Yulou Chunxiao and Qingyu team played very distinctively , but the overall strength of the players is incomparable with the professional players from the club, and they are still in the stage of slowly improving.

The teams with the strongest comprehensive strength are still these six teams from wealthy clubs.

And Yun Xiao happened to be ranked last in the club team.

The Fengse club is one of the best in the country. It stands to reason that with such a strong backing, the Yunxiao team should be able to win the top three after entering the new project.However, the performance of the new team was far from the expectations of the fans, especially after today's game, Yunxiao actually became the club's team with the worst performance.

Qiu Zongping served as the captain for three years, allowing Qin Mo to return to the ranks of the first-class team that was at a low point after Qin Mo's retirement. Fans naturally trust his ability, but Yunxiao's performance is so poor now, everyone naturally wants to find a team. Outlets for Catharsis—What's Going Wrong?The cooperation of the two summoners is not as strong as before. Team Qiu has always been calm as the backbone, and Xuewei has always been reliable as the mistress. So who is at fault?

Fans will naturally think of Yuan Xi.

Besides, judging from today's game, it was because Yuan Xi's focus was not clear, and he was out of touch with Team Qiu, which caused Team Yunxiao to fail to seize the best chance to counterattack.

All of a sudden, there were scolding voices everywhere on the Internet. Thousands of comments were posted on Yuan Xi's Weibo, most of which were full of sarcasm.

During the post-match interview, the reporter asked: "Yuan Xi, how do you think you played in today's game?"

Having already lost 0:2, Yuan Xi naturally couldn't say that he played very well, so he could only respond embarrassingly: "There is something wrong with my cooperation with Team Qiu. This game really didn't play well."

This sentence was misinterpreted by the fans as he voluntarily admitted his mistakes. Reasonable fans encouraged him to adjust his state as soon as possible, but the radical fans scolded him even more fiercely.

The reporter handed the microphone to Qiu Zongping, and the Qiu team calmly said: "We will reflect on ourselves and adjust our state before dealing with the next game."

He obviously didn't want to accept the interview, so he left with Yuan Xi and Zhou Xuewei after speaking.

Coincidentally seeing Dynasty players in the background, Qiu Zongping politely greeted Chu Jianxin and Sang Jun, and then took the players back to the hotel.

Sang Jun looked at his back, touched his chin lightly, and said, "Qiu Zongping has always been able to hide his emotions, and I admire him for that."

Chu Jianxin sighed softly, and said: "He is really under a lot of pressure. After a long time, he is used to keeping everything in his heart. Think about it, we are about the same age, we debuted at the same time, and we were both accompanied by Master at the time. You just need to play behind Team Tan and Weishen. But Qiu Zongping, taking on the responsibility of the team at such a young age, is not easy!"

Sang Joon looked back at him and said, "You are very sympathetic."

Chu Jianxin gently put his arms around Sang Jun's shoulders, and smiled flatteringly: "Hey, I am also the captain, so I am very lucky. I have such a powerful deputy team assistant like you, Sang Sang, how relaxed I am. Qiu Zong Ping is a little bit miserable, he has to study everything by himself, and resists all pressures by himself, as expected, different people have different fates!"

Facing his thick-skinned and ingratiating smile, Sang Jun couldn't help but smile slightly, and said, "Now you know how important I am?"

Chu Jianxin nodded immediately: "Of course, Sangsang is the most important strategist of our dynasty, responsible for our team's IQ, and our super brain..."

Sang-joon cuts him off: “Your words don’t sound like any sincerity.”

The team members bickered every day, and the surrounding team members were all laughing, only Lin Yao couldn't laugh, frowning as if he was thinking about something.

Sang Jun had already sensed that he was in a bad mood, so he looked back at him and said, "Ah Yao, I know you used to be a member of the Fengse Club. Seeing Qiu Yuan's combination go wrong, you must feel uncomfortable."

Lin Yao was startled, raised his head and said, "I..."

Sang Jun said: "You and Yuan Xi are best friends, I'm not that unreasonable, if you want to see him, you can go anytime."

Lin Yao said gratefully: "Thank you for the deputy team. Then I will take a vacation during dinner time to talk to him. I am sorry for the first team. I will not go if you invite me to dinner today. I will invite you next time."

Chu Jianxin waved his hand readily and said, "It's okay, let's go!"

After Lin Yao left, Chu Jianxin leaned into Sang Jun's ear and said, "Ah Yao is our core team member after all, so you are not afraid that he will be soft-hearted and go back to his old club to help?"

Sang Jun said calmly: "I believe he won't."

Chu Jianxin withdrew his claws on his shoulders and said seriously, "Then I also trust your judgment."

Sang Jun said: "Should I thank you for your trust?"

Chu Jianxin said: "Which one of us is with whom! Why are you talking more and more politely?"

Sang Jun smiled slightly, didn't say any more, turned around and took the team members to dinner.

Since the Dynasty team has been ranked No.1 in the standings recently, the atmosphere in the team is also unprecedentedly relaxed, but Sang Jun knows that there is not much time left for them to relax.

***

Team Yunxiao's headquarters is in Shanghai, but due to official regulations, all players must stay in a designated hotel during the weekend competition, which is convenient for the official unified management and announcement.Therefore, all members of Team Yunxiao are currently living in the hotel.

After the game, Qiu Zongping originally wanted to take everyone to dinner, go back to the hotel for a night's rest, and return to the club together tomorrow.However, as soon as everyone reached the door of the backstage passageway, they heard a voice from behind: "Yuan Xi."

Qiu Zongping turned his head and saw that it was Lin Yao from the Dynasty team.

Among the five players brought out by Moshen back then, Yuan Xi and Lin Yao had the best relationship. Even if Lin Yao later transferred to Huaxia Club, Yuan Xi kept in touch with him.

Seeing Lin Yao's appearance, Qiu Zongping was inexplicably displeased, but Yuan Xi looked very happy, walked up to Lin Yao and said, "Ah Yao, are you looking for me?"

Lin Yao smiled and said, "Long time no see, I want to have a good chat with you." After he finished speaking, he looked up at Qiu Zongping and said, "I go to have a meal with Yuan Xi alone, Team Qiu doesn't mind?"

Everyone: "..."

Many newcomers in Yunxiao are pretending to be calm, but actually pricking up their ears to listen to gossip. Zhou Xuewei looked down and swiped her mobile phone as if she had nothing to do with herself. Qiu Zongping was silent for a moment, and said: "Go, I'm not so overbearing, I still care about the team members. private time."

Lin Yao nodded, took Yuan Xi's arm, turned around and left.

After the two went out from the player passage, Lin Yao found the car he called just now, let Yuan Xi sit in the back seat, and then gave the driver an address.

Along the way, Yuan Xi remained silent, and Lin Yao didn't speak until the car stopped at a restaurant with a good environment. Lin Yao thanked the driver, and then took Yuan Xi into the private room of the restaurant.

After ordering and closing the door, there were only two people left in the room, and the quiet atmosphere was extremely awkward, Yuan Xi had no choice but to find a topic to break the silence: "This restaurant, when we were newcomers to the training camp, Moshen seemed to bring us here After a few times, I remember that the sweets in this shop are very delicious, haha..." His forced smile was actually uglier than crying.Lin Yao sighed lightly, and said, "In front of me, don't pretend."

Yuan Xi: "..."

Facing the concerned gaze of his friend, Yuan Xi immediately looked away in embarrassment, and said, "What do you mean by that?"

Lin Yao said helplessly: "I've known you for so many years, don't I know you? When I called last time, I asked about the carnival, and you suddenly got angry at me. I thought it was wrong at the time... You, I really like you." Did you go to Qiu Zongping?"

Yuan Xi said stiffly, "I don't know what you're talking about."

Lin Yao patted the back of Yuan Xi's hand lightly, and said seriously: "Yuan Xi, your acting skills are not good. If you treat me as a friend, there is really no need to continue acting in front of me."

Yuan Xi's eyes suddenly heated up, and her voice trembled unconsciously: "Xuewei also said, you asked me too, is it that obvious?"

Lin Yao said: "For those who know you, it will be obvious at a glance."

He didn't dare to say, in fact, even Deputy Sang, who didn't know Yuan Xi well, could see that there was a relationship problem between Qiu and Yuan.The sharp-eyed strongmen of other teams, especially those who have participated in the carnival, such as Nie Yuzhu, Su Cheng, Lin Shuangcheng, etc., must have noticed it too, but everyone is pretending not to know.

Yuan Xi blushed, "Then do you think... I'm ridiculous?"

Lin Yao comforted softly: "No, don't think so, there is nothing wrong with liking someone. It's just... Qiu Zongping, that hard rock, I don't quite understand why you like him?"

Yuan Xi lowered his head and said: "I don't know when it started. At that time, I led the team to the new area to prove that I was better than him, but the formation of the new team has not improved... I suspect that the ink marks in the first area of ​​Telecom I have something to do with Mo Shen, I went undercover to check his identity, but was found out, so I asked Team Qiu for help, Team Qiu quickly found out the real identity of Mohen, but at that time, I had some conflicts with him and almost left the club , he persuaded me to go back..."

Although Yuan Xi's words were a little messy, Lin Yao still listened carefully.

Yuan Xi paused, then continued: "He told me that a really good player doesn't have to be the captain to prove himself, and he also said that I should play a good DPS with peace of mind... At that time, I thought what he said was very reasonable, Just give up the position of captain... When we practiced cooperation together in the new area, he took good care of me... Gradually, I felt that he was a very good person. When I opposed him like that, he was not angry at all, and always Take care of me..."

Having said this, Yuan Xi couldn't help but stop, staring at the water glass in front of her in a daze.

Lin Yao was a little distressed. He knew Yuan Xi, and he also knew that Yuan Xi was the kind of person who was fierce on the surface but soft in heart. He would always keep in mind whoever treated him better.Even though he always disagreed with Qin Mo's point of view in the training camp and openly hated Moshen, but after Moshen left, he was the one who cried the most.

Such a person is very simple.He was tempted by Qiu Zongping, probably because Qiu Zongping adjusted his awkward mentality of confrontation and let him find the path he should go. Slowly, these complicated emotions converged into a kind of liking.

It's a pity that Qiu Zongping did all this just because - he is the captain.

As the captain, he helped Yuan Xi and took care of Yuan Xi, probably he never thought that Yuan Xi would fall in love with him.

One cares unintentionally, while the other unknowingly gives sincerity. Both of them are right, but it's a pity that Qiu Zongping's temper is too stubborn, which makes such a calm straight man suddenly change his mind to be with Yuan Xi. Together, it's just too hard.

Lin Yao sighed helplessly in his heart, looked at Yuan Xi and asked, "Then what are you going to do now?"

Yuan Xi choked with sobs and said: "He has already rejected me tactfully, he said that he hopes we are just comrades in arms..."

Lin Yao really wanted to hug this calm guy, how uncomfortable would it be for him to hear Qiu Zongping say such calm words?It's probably the feeling of a heart being trampled to pieces, right?

As Yuan Xi's best friend, although Lin Yao really wanted to beat Qiu Zongping up, but intellectually, he also knew that Qiu Zongping was not wrong, and if he didn't like it, he refused. This was Qiu Zongping's way of doing things.However, what hurts him more is that besides the refusal, there is also his distrust of Yuan Xi.

Lin Yao's tactical attainments are not high, but Sang's deputy team has been watching the game in the background during today's game and analyzing. From the analysis of Sang Jun, a master tactician, Yuan Xi suddenly shifted his target in the first round because of Qiu Zongping's Instructions, Qiu Zongping didn't cooperate well when Yuan Xi wanted to counterattack in the second game. In short, Qiu Zongping's mistakes in today's game were the fault of Yuan Xi's performance.

Lin Yao quickly realized that the root of all this was because Qiu Zongping didn't trust Yuan Xi's judgment.

Yuan Xi probably also noticed this, that's why she was so depressed...

Thinking of this, Lin Yao called the waiter: "Have a dozen beers."

Yuan Xi was startled, and said, "Do you want to drink?"

Lin Yao said with a smile: "We haven't had a drink together for a long time, anyway, Dynasty and Yunxiao have finished their games this week, let's relax tonight, don't think about anything!"

Yuan Xi also laughed, opened a can of beer, and said, "Then you won't be drunk and you won't go home! Come on, let's do it!"

***

When Lin Yao was about to transfer to Huaxia Club, Yuan Xi knew the news and let him carry it out. Lin Yao was in a low mood at the time, so Yuan Xi accompanied him to drink and got drunk. It's not good, just come here to drink, as long as you get drunk, there will be no worries in your mind.

Ever since the farce at the carnival ended, Yuan Xi kept his sad emotions in his heart. Usually in the team, he had to force himself to smile in order not to be seen by others.

He felt really uncomfortable.

After being suppressed for so long, coupled with the continuous competition, he couldn't vent his emotions at all, and his spirit was always tense. He felt like he was walking on the edge of a cliff, and his body would be smashed to pieces if he was not careful.

Lin Yao knew him well, and calling him out for a drink today finally gave him an outlet to vent.

Yuan Xi drank like drinking water, and the beer cans on the table were quickly consumed. His cheeks were flushed, and he was obviously drunk. He still grabbed Lin Yao's arm and said in a daze, "Qiu Zongping, don't hate me. Okay? I really, didn't mean to like you..."

Lin Yao was so distressed that she had to repeatedly pat him on the shoulder to comfort him.

Yuan Xi muttered a lot, which made Lin Yao feel uncomfortable too. When the five of them were training with Moshen, everyone was full of the best vision for the future, and they felt confidently that the future In the hands of their generation, they will definitely be invincible like when Lingshen was leading the team, winning prizes and being soft-handed.

But later, Lin Yao transferred to Dynasty due to personal reasons, and could no longer fight side by side with his childhood friends; Leading the team together to the new project, the originally powerful combination of dual summoning and god-level healing has now become the laughing stock of the entire league.

It seems that the past few years have not been smooth, but the time when I was forced to train by Moshen has become the best memory.

Lin Yao was thinking blankly until the beer bottle fell to the ground and shattered with a "bang". He looked back and saw that Yuan Xi was lying on the table and seemed to have fallen asleep. He accidentally knocked over a few bottles. Lin Yao Helping him up, he stood up and said, "I'll pay the bill, and I'll take you back later."

He turned around to pay the bill, and when he returned to the private room after paying the bill, he was shocked to find that Yuan Xi had disappeared!

Where can he go in just a few minutes?

Lin Yao went to the door of the hall and asked the waiter if he had seen him. The waiter said that it seemed that someone had just left the house.Lin Yao immediately went out to look for it. However, this happened to be the busiest commercial street, and there were people coming and going on weekend nights, so how could Yuan Xi be there?

Lin Yao searched all over the street but still couldn't find Yuan Xi. In a hurry, he subconsciously called Qin Mo.

Qin Mo was resting at the hotel. He was still a little confused when he received Lin Yao's call, but he heard the other party hurriedly say, "Moshen, Yuan Xi is gone!"

Hearing this voice from the side, Xiao Han couldn't help frowning and said, "I want to find you for everything, they really regard you as omnipotent?!"

Qin Mo glanced at Xiao Han, walked to the window with his mobile phone, and asked calmly, "What's going on?"

Lin Yao said with a trembling voice: "I took him out for dinner and drank some wine. Yuan Xi was drunk, so I went to pay the bill, and when I turned around, I found that he was gone"

Qin Mo said: "Can he get through the phone?"

As soon as I asked here, I heard Lin Yao suddenly yelled, "I found him! God..."

There was a noisy voice on the phone, and Qin Mo asked worriedly, "What's wrong?"

After a long time, Lin Yao's answer came: "He crossed the road and hit a car, I will send him to the hospital!"

***

There were traffic police at the scene to maintain order. Yuan Xi stumbled while walking while drunk, and ran out without seeing the red light on the sidewalk. He was knocked to the ground by a car that had just turned a corner. Many people were watching at the scene.Lin Yao pushed aside the crowd and was almost frightened to death when he saw Yuan Xi lying in a pool of blood.

The ambulance arrived at the scene soon, and Lin Yao followed the ambulance to send Yuan Xi to the hospital in fear. His hands were shaking all the time on the way. It was his fault. He shouldn't have left the drunk Yuan Xi alone in the room to pay the bill. , he didn't expect Yuan Xi to run out in a daze in just a few minutes...

If something happened to Yuan Xi, he would definitely die.

It wasn't until Yuan Xi was sent to the emergency department of the hospital that Lin Yao calmed down, and sent a message to Qiu Zongping and Chu Jianxin, telling the captains on both sides about the incident.

As for whether he will be scolded to death by the captains, Lin Yao is no longer in the mood to think about it, he only hopes that nothing will happen to Yuan Xi...

A moment later, Qiu Zongping, Zhou Xuewei, Chu Jianxin, Sang Jun, Qin Mo, Xiao Han, and a group of people all came to the hospital.

Seeing such a huge battle, Lin Yao was so ashamed that he wanted to dig a crack in the ground and bury himself.

Qiu Zongping's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and Sang Jun's face was not very good-looking, and he gave Lin Yao a reproachful look.

Qin Mo was the calmest, stepped forward and asked, "How is Yuan Xi?"

Lin Yao lowered his head and said, "The doctor said it seems... It's a broken bone and it's being treated."

Hearing this word, Qin Mo's back stiffened suddenly, Xiao Han noticed this, and immediately held Qin Mo's hand lightly.

Qin Mo took a deep breath, and shook Xiao Han's hand to show that he was fine.

Hearing Lin Yao's answer, Qiu Zongping finally burst into anger. He tore Lin Yao's collar and said, "I asked you to go out to eat, but who asked you to drink for him? Don't you know that he can't drink well? He drinks Drunk, you still don't look at him well, leave him alone, you..." Sang Jun frowned, stepped forward to separate the two and said: "Captain Qiu, calm down."

Chu Jianxin immediately smoothed things over with a dry smile: "Team Qiu, don't get angry, no one wants such a thing to happen, and Lin Yao didn't do it on purpose, let's ask the doctor to see Yuan Xi's situation..."

Just as the door of the treatment room opened, a doctor came out. Qiu Zongping immediately regained his senses, let go of Lin Yao, strode up to the doctor, and asked with an ugly face, "Doctor, how is Yuan Xi?"

The doctor took off his mask and said, "It's just a broken left leg, and we've already fixed him."

Qin Mo asked, "Is the fracture serious? Is there any hope of recovery?"

The doctor said: "There should be no major problems. The surrounding blood vessels and nerves have not been damaged. The fracture alignment is good. It can recover after a period of rest."

Hearing this, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.Yuan Xi was near the pedestrian street at the time, and the speed of the turning vehicle was not high, so the injury was not serious after being hit, which was the only consolation.

Qin Mo also felt relieved, but his face was still pale.Xiao Han knew that he must have remembered the car accident he had in those years. Back then, Qin Mo suffered comminuted fractures in both hands, and his mother suffered fractures in both legs. After three years of rehabilitation, Qin Mo was able to return to the field, and his mother is still Sitting in a wheelchair.

It is precisely because of such an experience that Qin Mo can empathize with Yuan Xi more and love Yuan Xi more.

Lin Yao's face was full of guilt, his eyes were red and he was almost crying.Qiu Zongping remained sullen, Sang Jun looked serious and seemed to be thinking about countermeasures, Chu Jianxin continued to be a peacemaker, and Zhou Xuewei stood beside him frowning and did not speak.A group of people stood in the corridor of the hospital, and many passing patients and family members looked here curiously.

At this moment, Yuan Xi's hospital bed was pushed out of the treatment room by the nurse.

Yuan Xi, who had gauze on his forehead and a plaster cast on his legs, looked a little pitiful, but since he hadn't had an operation and the doctor didn't give him anesthesia, he woke up now, opened his big eyes, and saw everyone Finally, he smirked and said, "Am I dreaming? Why are there so many people..." He turned his head and saw Qiu Zongping. I don't want to like you either, really, I don't want to like you at all, I really want to be friends with you...only friends..."

Qiu Zongping: "..."

Everyone: "..."

He was obviously not fully awake yet, and he was a little drunk, so his speech seemed incoherent.

Sang Jun sighed softly, turned his head and couldn't bear to look any further, while Chu Jianxin had a shocked expression on his face, as if he hadn't recovered from the word "I like you".

Silly Yuan Xi was drunk and spoke his mind in front of so many people, the atmosphere in the corridor suddenly became a little awkward.

Qin Mo took a deep breath, glanced at everyone, and said calmly: "Everyone should know that today's matter must be kept secret after going back. Once it is publicized, it will be of no benefit to anyone."

Sang Jun replied: "Of course."

Chu Jianxin finally came back to his senses, and said awkwardly: "Hey, it's good that Yuan Xi is fine... What's next?"

Qin Mo said calmly: "Xuewei, you and Lin Yao should send Yuan Xi to the ward first so that he can have a good rest." He paused, then looked back at Qiu Zongping, and said, "Captain Qiu, I have something to say I want to chat with you, isn't it convenient?"

Qiu Zongping was silent for a moment, nodded, turned around and followed Qin Mo's footsteps.
