The Black Rose team, which won the semi-finals beautifully, received enough cheers and applause when they left the venue, and the audience stood up.
"How is it?" You Jing who was walking in front suddenly turned around and asked.
"Who doesn't like applause." Lin Xiao obviously enjoyed it.
"..." You Jing paused, "What I'm asking is how is your condition?"
"Live like a dragon and a tiger, do you want to try?" Lin Xiao said, waving his hand intentionally, and narrowly moved over.
"Going back." Long before Lin Xiao approached, You Jing glanced at the tiredness hidden in his eyes, and walked away without saying anything more.
As a veteran team, no one knows better than the fans of the Black Rose team how important this semi-final victory is to them.
Since the car accident that year, the Black Rose team has been waiting for this opportunity to go abroad for too long. Now, the admission to the finals has ensured their place in the international competition for their country. Next, they need to face Yes, is the real battle of kings.
With regard to this semi-final, the major e-sports magazines naturally did not miss any chance to make a big splash. From the near-perfect performance of the overall situation to Chen Anqi's perfect harvest, there are many people who once again drew attention from Zou Qiguan's two consecutive games. The guesses about the rumors about You Jing's hand injury were eliminated. Of course, among these gimmicks, the one that has attracted the most attention is naturally Lin Xiao's Conferred God of War.
The successor of the old ghost! This name was once again pushed to the forefront.
After the tense and harsh semi-finals, everyone in the Black Rose team felt exhausted to some extent. As soon as they returned to the hotel, they almost all fell asleep. When I woke up the next day, the focus of attention naturally fell on the competing reports of the major media.
"Tsk tsk tsk, Lin Xiao is really going to be popular this time." Sitting at the restaurant table, Xiao Li sighed in frustration while looking at the newspaper in his hand, "Without him, this The front page should all belong to me, right?"
"No, in terms of performance, Chen Anqi is a little more eye-catching than you." Liu Zeshin's calm and statement tone floated lightly.
"Damn!" Xiao Li couldn't help but stare, "People don't break down, do you understand?"
"According to me, the performance of the two of us is better than yours, young man." Xu Yiming made up the knife with a smile, while poking Xu Yichen who was drinking white rice porridge, "Do you think so?"
Xu Yichen continued to eat without looking up, but just nodded and said "hmm".
"That's not right." Liu Zeshen has a demeanor of upholding justice, "You two twins are just playing as usual. In terms of news value, Xiaoli should be higher." After finishing speaking, he glanced at Xiao Li. The hidden smile seemed to say—look, I'll still help you.
Help is a help, but I can't hear the meaning of praise at all, okay! Xiao Li was so depressed, the swollen emotions just now had long since disappeared, and he didn’t want to continue this topic at all. After looking around, he said, “Well, what about Lin Xiao? Get up!"
"It's true that I haven't woken up yet." Shen Changyu replied, but didn't continue to say anything more. From the beginning just now, he never participated in any discussion, as if he was immersed in his rather dignified world alone. He knew very well that after the entire game yesterday, under the seemingly smooth victory all the way, what was hidden was the huge pressure provoked by that person alone.
All professional players in the league know what kind of player Wen Shuqing is. It is not easy to win from his explosive hand speed. Fengshen? What kind of burden is behind the seemingly brilliant, and how many people can see it? What's more, after that, there was the almost cruel one-on-three in the team competition!
Lin Xiao undoubtedly completed the entire game perfectly, but such a perfect performance, the short rest time during the small team competition was not enough to adjust.
"Deputy Shen." Shen Changyu was about to go back after breakfast, but was suddenly stopped when he walked into the corridor. When he turned around, he saw You Jing standing at the corner not far from the door, as if he had been waiting for him early in the morning. with him.
You Jing usually likes to wear white shirts, but now he is carrying two conspicuous big meat bags and a bag of soy milk in his hands, which are particularly out of place with his clean appearance.
Shen Changyu calmed down, walked over and asked, "You team has something to do with me?"
You Jing nodded: "I want to ask you about Lin Xiao."
Shen Changyu replied: "There should be no major problems with his condition, but he was too tired yesterday and needed to rest for a while, so he didn't come down..."
You Jing interrupted him: "That's not what I want to ask."
Shen Changyu was stunned: "That's it?"
You Jing looked at him for a long time, his lips parted slightly, and he uttered every word very clearly: "What I want to ask is, is it true what I said at the beginning about Lin Xiao being an 'old ghost apprentice'? According to me As far as we know, the old ghost has never accepted any apprentices."
Being watched closely by such scrutiny, Shen Changyu felt as if his whole body stiffened suddenly, and his first thought was to run away. After a long time, I finally regained my senses, reluctantly raised the corners of my mouth: "Why Team You... suddenly thought of asking this?"
The corners of You Jing's mouth slightly curled up: "Is it convenient to answer?"
"Yes... ah, no!" Shen Changyu almost bit his own tongue, wanting to cry but not crying. Why should he be responsible for burying the pit that Team Lin himself buried!
You Jing had a panoramic view of such an ever-changing expression, and for some reason, he felt his heart skip a beat. After a while, he asked, "So, who is he?"
Shen Changyu was silent. In this silence, You Jing didn't have any intention of urging, until he finally raised his head to meet his eyes, and asked: "You team, is this important? We only need to know that he is Lin Xiao, It’s our current teammates, isn’t that enough?”
It wasn't the answer he wanted to get, and he didn't even answer his words directly at all, but Shen Changyu's brows at this time showed a kind of pure calm.
The air seemed to stop flowing suddenly, and it was suddenly quiet under the mutual gaze of the two.
At this moment, You Jing didn't know why he felt such a sense of loss, but this emotion was fleeting in his eyes, and after a long time, the calm expression returned to his face, and the corners of his mouth quietly twitched. :"really."
Seeing that You Jing didn't continue to ask so easily, Shen Changyu was a little surprised and at the same time heaved a sigh of relief. At this moment, You Jing suddenly said again: "Give me the room card."
Shen Changyu was a little stunned, and subconsciously took out the room card from his trouser pocket and handed it over. When he came to his senses, You Jing had already walked away with his room card. When he reached the elevator entrance, he looked back and confessed: : "Take them to do three hours of simple technique training after breakfast."
All the contestants live in standard rooms. After adjusting the rooms for better tacit training, Liu Zeshen has moved to live with Xiao Li, and Lin Xiao is currently sharing a room with him. At this moment, he should be sleeping soundly.
Seeing the figure disappear from view as the elevator door closed, Shen Changyu reacted belatedly—the breakfast in this person's hand was intended to be given to Team Lin
Thinking of this, the tense mood just now relaxed a lot.
It is of course a great thing to have such harmony among the team members! In any case, at least Team You doesn't seem to hate Team Lin's appearance, so it will be much easier.
...
When Lin Xiao heard the sound of the door opening and opened his eyes, he vaguely saw a vague silhouette and asked in a daze, "Why are you back? Are there no other training arrangements after breakfast?"
"Knowing that there is a training arrangement, why don't you get up?"
Such a cool wind-like voice fell into Lin Xiao's ears, making him suddenly lift the quilt and sit up: "You Jing?"
Not You Team but You Jing
You Jing raised his brows a little, and was about to speak when his eyes fell and he saw that the man's messy skirt was slightly open, missing a bit of spring. Amidst the sleepy demeanor of just waking up, Lin Xiao's expression is more lazy than usual. With such an inadvertent glance, it seems that yesterday's inexplicably recalled side face flashed in front of his eyes, outlining the righteousness. It is the outline of the person in front of him.
You Jing was in a trance for no reason.
Lin Xiao got up neatly at this time, walked to the front and saw the steaming big meat bun, and immediately took it very smoothly: "Oh, I'm sorry to bother Team You to deliver breakfast in person, I'm sorry .”
Only then did You Jing come back to his senses, and took a look at that face, and there was no sign of "sorry" at all from it.
"Are you here to discuss the lineup for the finals?" Lin Xiao gulped down the soy milk in one gulp, and said with a clear face while gnawing on the meat buns, "I really didn't oversleep on purpose, you I know, I was too tired yesterday."
He didn't seem to come here for this.
You Jing didn't answer.
After a while, Lin Xiao ate up the two big meat buns. He wiped his mouth with a paper towel and said, "As for the lineup of the finals, I generally have such an idea. Whether it is feasible or not is up to you. Judgment. But before I say it, let me see your hand."
Saying this, he held You Jing's wrist unceremoniously and prepared to study it carefully.
The temperature of the palm rushed to the wrist unexpectedly, You Jing subconsciously took two steps back and broke free. When he realized it again, he froze for a moment again, frowning between his brows, feeling that something was not right after yesterday's game.
Looking up, he saw Lin Xiao was also a little stunned, You Jing turned around and walked out of the room before he could say anything.
Lin Xiao stood alone on the spot, and touched his chin belatedly, his expression gradually became serious.
His movements are obviously very light. Could it be that the wrist injury is so serious
