Everyone played in the villa for one night, and the next day Shen Nuo sent someone to take them back to the hotel.
This day was specially reserved for them, Xiao Zhang's door was locked, and he learned from the front desk that he had checked out, and no one knew where he went. Everyone was too lazy to care about him, and went out in twos and threes with the same purpose—to buy souvenirs.
The number of places for each team in the wild card competition is limited. The players who can come are very fond of their teammates. In addition, it has become a unique Chinese habit to bring special products to friends when they go out, so even if everyone is very tired, Don't forget to take the time to take to the streets to choose.
Shen Huai and Song Xueyang also had this plan. Except for Fan Jingming, they were all children in the family, and they felt embarrassed to go back if they didn't bring them some gifts.
In fact, shopping is convenient in today's society. It is said that it is a special product, and there are no rare things.
When Shi Yi likes practical things, Song Xueyang bought him a razor, Shen Huai bought a pair of sneakers, Fan Jingming loved smug, the two bought him ties and perfume, and Hai Xing liked to play, so they both gave him to him. I bought some game accessories. As for Zhou Jing, neither of them have any experience in giving gifts to girls, and they don't know what she likes. If there is anything she really wants, Zhou Ning will definitely bring it to her, so in the end I will give it to her. She bought some dried fruit, nuts and some snacks.
After picking these, Song Xueyang bought some health care products for his parents, Shen Huai bought him a bottle of good wine with Song Xueyang on his back, and took it out of his bag when he was eating.
Song Xueyang's eyes narrowed immediately, holding the wine bottle and loving it, "You still feel bad for me, if it were my mother, I cried and begged her not to let me buy it."
"why?"
"She said she was addicted to drinking and couldn't find a partner."
Shen Huai disagreed, "You're not that kind of person."
Although Song Xueyang loves wine, he is not addicted. This man has strong self-control, and he loves and tastes wine more, even though his drinking is unexpectedly good.
Song Xueyang smiled, "Then what kind of person do you think I am?"
Shen Huai made no secret of his admiration, "You are a person who knows what you want, and you are very self-controlled and smart, and you know enough to stop what you like, and you won't be too addicted."
Song Xueyang asked strangely, "Why don't I know how to stop my feelings for you?"
Shen Huai: "..."
"It's a coincidence, I have something for you too." Song Xueyang put the wine aside and took out a small box from his pocket.
Shen Huai groaned when he saw the shape of the box, and opened the box, as he thought it was two men's rings.
The ring is a very simple ring. It has been carefully designed to cut edges and corners. It glows slightly in the sun. It is not very conspicuous in a slightly darker place. It is generous and beautiful, and it does not look like it has any special meaning. When I touched the inside of the ring, there was no lettering, and the purpose of simple and low-key was carried out from beginning to end.
Shen Huai raised his head, Song Xueyang smiled, "Do you dare?"
Shen Huai answered this question with practical actions. He directly picked up one and put it on his middle finger and turned it around. The size was just right.
Song Xueyang was speechless, "How can I wear it for myself?"
Shen Huai raised his eyebrows, "Could this be your engagement ring?"
Song Xueyang couldn't help laughing. Shen Huai was right. This ring was just a tool he used to express his overflowing emotions. When he and Shen Huai got engaged and married, they would naturally be more attentive and more valuable.
He also picked up the one he wore on his hand, looked left and right, stretched out towards Shen Huai, and gently pulled the two hands wearing the same ring together.
Shen Huai understands that a ring is not practical for e-sports players, and Song Xueyang of course knows that, but even so, he chose a ring with a clear meaning to give it to himself, which proves that he really attaches great importance to it. A relationship, and the same is true for myself.
In the afternoon, they returned to the hotel to pack their luggage. In the evening, they called all the team members to hold a meeting. The content of the meeting was mainly about the interview with reporters after returning to China.
Shen Huai was thoughtful, prepared the manuscript in advance, wrote the evaluation of each contestant, and read it to them without hesitation.
"If you feel that what I just said needs to be supplemented, you can send me WeChat privately. Your comments are the questions that reporters will definitely ask after returning to China. We can make full preparations. And you are all excellent. The players of this wild card game have suffered a lot from training to playing, which should be known to the fans.”
Everyone expressed their approval. It is long past the era when people can be appreciated by working hard. The players are hardworking and excellent, and they must learn to promote themselves in order to win the hearts of more fans.
After finishing these matters concerning the interests of each player, Shen Huai mentioned Xiao Zhang again.
Without waiting for him to express his position, Si Qianjin said with righteous indignation, "Xiao Zhang is forcing me to never let him go this time and expose him! I will definitely be the first to stand up and anal with him!"
Shen Huai nodded at him, "I'm talking about this issue, I don't care what everyone thinks, he didn't cooperate with the command, he deliberately lost to Wayne in an attempt to make the team lose the game, which has touched my bottom line, I'm sure won't let him go."
Tao Lele agreed, "Neither will we! In the past, although he acted arrogantly, he didn't hinder others, so forget it. But this time he represented China in the wild card tournament, and he deliberately released water without wanting to win glory for the country. The ethnic issue must not be forgiven lightly!"
Liang Minghui was more cautious, "But it's not easy to defeat Xiao Zhang. Let's not mention his own popularity. The Ares Club protects him very much. Whatever absurd things he has done in recent years, the club has suppressed him, God of War. The boss has a wide network of contacts and has connections with the top management of the e-sports association. On the side of the competition committee, the former captain Yao Jun is also very prestige. Xiao Zhang starts first, and sends out the medical certificate. This matter can be big or small, it is not that simple. Just as we wanted."
Si Qianjin raised his eyebrows, "We are 11 people, 11 mouths, so many testimonies can't prove that Xiao Zhang's arena has been released?"
Shen Huai asked, "We saw Xiao Zhang's release of water, did the audience see it?"
Si Qianjin was speechless. At that time, Xiao Zhang's residual blood was useless and he was defeated. Wayne had half of his blood when he died. They knew Xiao Zhang's character and strength. can draw this conclusion. But the audience at the scene, including the commentators, thought that Xiao Zhang was in poor condition or made a mistake on the spot, because people who didn't know Xiao Zhang would not believe that a great god-level qigong master who ranked third in the world would not hesitate to risk it because he didn't get along with the captain. Lose the game at the risk of lowering your rankings and ruining your reputation.
Even ordinary viewers can't believe this reason, let alone Xiao Zhang's die-hard fans. The video of the plus wild card competition will not be released until after the world finals.
Si Qianjin asked unwillingly, "Is that the case?"
Shen Huai said calmly, "No, it's a delay. The World Finals will start in more than half a month. At this time, Fengyue, Xiaolang, and WG have to make every effort to prepare for the World Championships, and they don't have any extra energy to deal with reporters. And public opinion. The rest of you are weak and weak. If you don't fight Xiao Zhang, you will lose the chance to bring him down. As Huo Lao said just now, Xiao Zhang dares to do this because he is sure that the God of War will help him deal with the aftermath, so, Only a one-hit kill can completely bring him down."
Luo Lie asked, "How long until then?"
"After the World Finals, when the wild-card video was released."
"How long will it take?!"
"This is the best time," Song Xueyang said. "A snake can only catch a fish when it hits seven inches. If you can trust me, leave this job to me."
That is so believable!
Who is Song Xueyang? It's an old fox who is elusive on the field and doesn't give people a headache, and is also full of ghosts outside the field that others can't figure out!
With his guarantee, everyone was really relieved, not to mention that Song Xueyang has this ability, they may not be. Most of the people present are not as good as Xiao Zhang in the circle, and usually try to hide as much as possible. This is not a good job.
Guan He was the first to say, "Yes, if you need my proof, feel free to contact me."
Song Xueyang smiled and said, "Of course, it is necessary."
Others also expressed their willingness to cooperate, because what Xiao Zhang did this time was really outrageous and should be punished.
After the meeting, Luo Lie walked a few steps slowly and stopped Shen Huai, "Yu Shen, I... have something for you."
Shen Huai knew something was wrong by seeing his expression, "What's wrong?"
Luo Lie took out his mobile phone, "It was sent to me by Pablo last night. During the wild-card training phase, a player from our side secretly contacted Luis and told them about our lineup and player's strengths. Luis left a screenshot to let him know. Pablo forwarded it to me."
Shen Huai lowered his head and glanced at it, the time was indeed their training stage, and the content was very purposeful, just to leak secrets, and with his toes, he could think that this person was Sun Yuan.
Shen Huai nodded, "Okay, send it to me."
The next day they set off to return to China, and Xiao Zhang still did not show up. At this time, the news of the Chinese team winning the wild card tournament had already spread back to China, including the American media vividly reporting the deeds of Shen Huai's 1V3 arena to turn the tide, and a large number of reporters squatted and waited. hall.
As soon as Shen Huai led the team, there was a burst of cheers and applause at the scene, and the reporters congratulated the Chinese team for winning the championship.
Everyone in the Chinese team also held their heads high, with a sense of pride in returning home.
The reporters couldn't wait to start asking questions about how they felt after winning and their performance on the field, but everyone was told by Chairman Pi to ignore them and wait until tomorrow's press conference to officially answer them.
The sharp-eyed reporter soon found that Xiao Zhang was not in the group, "Excuse me, Team Shen, why didn't Xiao Shen come back with the team? Did he stay in the United States for treatment because of a recurrence of his hand injury?"
They had a strategy meeting yesterday, and everyone was watching and avoiding answering.
Shen Huai said lightly, "I don't know."
The reporter still wanted to ask questions, but Shen Huai stopped answering.
They returned to Beijing together, and Chairman Pi had already arranged a hotel for them. That night, Chairman Hua personally hosted a banquet for them.
This time, Chairman Hua was no longer as serious as before, and his face was full of glory. As soon as he saw them, he greeted them kindly and praised them well.
Asked about Xiao Zhang, Shen Huai didn't know the answer. Chairman Hua nodded and didn't ask any more questions. He happily said that he had arranged the press conference tomorrow, and he would write a special article for each of them in the e-sports weekly. report.
He loved Shen Huai even more, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Shen Huai, you keep your word, you really didn't disappoint me."
What he was talking about was that Shen Huai issued a military order before the game, guaranteeing that he would win the championship by replacing Sun Yuan.
The other team members were taken care of by Shen Huai, and they also said good things.
Si Jinjin said, "Chairman Hua, this wild card match is really thanks to Yushen. If nothing else, it's really impossible to replace me in the last 1v3 of the finals. It also opened their eyes to the Americans. They That level is simply not enough in front of our Feather God!"
Chairman Hua laughed and said, "I heard that it's powerful or powerful, and that's how it should be. What are they in the United States? Did they lose to us after making so many tricks? And that South Korea, one day sooner or later, will also be taken by us from China. Players get down!"
Everyone agreed, and Chairman Hua was in a good mood, "The victory in the wild card competition is the credit of each of you. You are all outstanding players who have won glory for the country. I will definitely remember your efforts. In the future, there will be any difficulties in the circle. You can find me, nothing else to say, as long as I am here, no one will dare to bully you after retreating."
Si Qianjin took the lead in applauding. It is not easy to make a living in the circle. One more way out is one more guarantee. Chairman Hua's commitment is the best help for them.
After the dinner, Shen Huai and Guan He personally sent Chairman Hua and Chairman Pi to the car.
Chairman Hua grabbed the hands of Shen Huai and Guan He tightly. He drank a lot, but he was still sober, "Shen Huai, Guan He, you have done a lot in this wild card competition, and Chairman Hua will remember them all. In my heart, I will never forget it. My biggest wish in my life is to have a Chinese team win the world championship of the S series during my tenure. It is not the runner-up, not the third place, but the champion!”
"What South Korea, the United Kingdom, the Nordic countries, and China's e-sports are the best! We Chinese have to do everything well, and we will not admit defeat! It is enough to be trampled under the feet for so many years. China needs a champion, And you guys are the most promising people to realize this dream of mine, hear me?"
Shen Huai felt that the hand holding his arm was so heavy and powerful that it resonated with his heartbeat.
Guan He said, "Don't worry, all Xiaolang members will go all out for this."
Shen Huai said, "Your dream is also my dream."
Chairman Hua patted them moved, "Good boys, all good boys. You all prepare well for the war, and you can come to me at any time if you have anything."
Shen Huai heard the words, "There is indeed something I want to ask Chairman Hua to make up his mind."
"What's up?"
Shen Huai took out his mobile phone and showed Chairman Hua the screenshot of the team's lineup leaked by Sun Yuan before the game.
Chairman Hua's expression changed. It was obvious that Sun Yuan was the only one who had the motivation to do this. His face became cold, "I see, send the screenshot to my email, you don't have to worry about it."
