Xue Lan looked at Duan Wenzheng, who was lying on his side and unable to get up. After a while, he asked tentatively:
"You guys had a fight?"
"… "
Xue Lan looked at the man in front of him who was obviously helping him just now, and who was unwilling to be honest with his brothers. He was even more certain that he and Wen Yan must have had a quarrel.
"Why would you argue with him?" Duan Wenzheng held his forehead with his hand: "Come here quickly."
Xue Lan said earnestly: "Don't quarrel, just talk it out if you have anything to say."
"… "
Xue Lan's gaze at this moment made Duan Wenzheng slightly surprised. Why did he feel that Xue Lan's gaze was somewhat familiar? Why was it a little like... the time when the old man looked at him.
Duan Wenzheng was just pondering whether he should let Xue Lan have less contact with old men in the future, so as to prevent such a cute child from being infected with old-fashioned airs, when Xue Lan forcibly pushed him to stand up.
"Hey, don't chase me away. I'm just sleeping for one night. I'm not doing anything else."
Seeing that he refused to leave, Xue Lan no longer had any mercy on him so he simply ignored him and pushed him out of the door.
"Go back quickly." Xue Lan refused righteously, "The captain didn't find you just now, he must be very anxious now."
"Is he in a hurry to close the door..." Duan Wenzheng looked at the child blocking the door with a blush on his face and a threatening look in his eyes, and his voice did not slow down: "Be good and open the door."
Xue Lan shook his head seriously: "Go back quickly, go to bed, bye!!"
He closed the door again after saying this, and refused to open it again no matter how much Duan Wenzheng knocked and coaxed him.
Duan Wenzheng looked at the closed door in front of him, and suddenly felt that this child was becoming harder and harder to deceive... No, he was becoming more and more rebellious. Could it be that the child was entering puberty
Why is it that the child who used to be able to be coaxed into my arms with just a few words is so difficult to coax now
Duan Wenzheng sighed and was about to leave when he turned around and saw Zhou Kanqing passing by. Duan Wenzheng's movements froze and he ignored him and walked towards the room, but Zhou Kanqing followed him as if something unpleasant had happened.
"Hey, did you see that right? Why is there a 'boyfriend' being kicked out here?"
Duan Wenzheng had no choice but to stop and imitate his tone: "Hey, why is there still a single guy wandering around in the middle of the night?"
"..." Zhou Kanqing was still determined: "I saw quite a few people supporting A Yan and Exist today. Do you know what CP fans are?"
"Why didn't you see it?" Duan Wenzheng said calmly, "Did you see quite a few fans of you and him?"
"I didn't see it." Zhou Kanqing ignored him. He picked up another thing: "I actually saw another strange super topic today. Maybe... you and A Yan are CP fans."
"?"
"I think that fan who supports you and A Yan as a couple does have some truth in what he said. I'd better believe that you and A Yan are a couple." Zhou Kanqing said while covering his belly with laughter.
"You should watch more of this kind of stuff that will lower your IQ." Duan Wenzheng continued without changing his expression, "Also, I'm sorry to disappoint you, I just wanted to end the date normally."
"A normal date?" Zhou Kanqing rarely caught Duan Wenzheng being turned away, so he would not let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity: "A normal date, you're a little... It's not good for a man to be too fast."
Duan Wenzheng glanced at a certain person beside him who was gloating over someone else's misfortune, raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Don't make such jokes in the future. Existence is thin-skinned and can't help being teased."
"?" Zhou Kanqing choked up, and felt like he had heard a joke: "Can you tell yourself this? Do you still know that exist can't be teased?"
"I made a mistake in expression." Duan Wenzheng stopped and explained seriously, as if he really realized his mistake: "I mean, exist is shy, so... don't tease him."
"… "
Duan Wenzheng looked at Zhou Kanqing, whose complexion was cracked again, patted him on the shoulder, and walked towards the room in a vigorous and energetic manner again.
After Duan Wenzheng left, Xue Lan searched the internet for the game video without the commentary, and after piecing it together, he finally edited it into a complete video and released it.
After posting the video, he immediately quit Weibo as if he was afraid of seeing the consequences.
The next day, it was the day Mengqi left the club.
Wen Yan was even more silent than usual, and even Zhou Kanqing, who was usually talkative, had a heavy expression on his face.
Xue Lan walked quietly to her seat, where the breakfast Zhou Kanqing had bought was already placed.
Xue Lan didn't take this bet seriously, but Zhou Kanqing always remembered it. After coming to the club, he would bring breakfast for Xue Lan every morning. Xue Lan refused several times, but he was very persistent in this matter, so Xue Lan had to give up.
It was just that Duan Wenzheng came to the training room a little late that day. When he came to the training room yawning, Wen Yan looked at the time.
"The time of each team member is very limited. Now that you have joined LGW, I hope you will respect your teammates and your own career."
Duan Wenzheng raised his eyes and glanced at the time: "Seven hours."
"You delayed five team members, including yourself, for seven minutes. If you schedule a practice match with another team during this time, then you've delayed ten people's time..."
Duan Wenzheng interrupted him and said, "So you are an hour late today?"
Wen Yan didn't say anything, and Duan Wenzheng continued, "Don't you know why you are late?"
The atmosphere between the two was tense. Xue Lan, who was standing aside, was wondering whether he should change the subject appropriately, but he keenly grasped the key points of the conversation between the two and quickly pricked up his ears.
But the two of them were no longer interested in continuing the topic and each logged into the game to start training.
Usually at this time, Zhou Kanqing would take on the job of commentating, but today Zhou Kanqing was not in the mood, so Xue Lan had to turn to Qi Siyu standing aside for help.
Qi Siyu explained in a low voice: "I heard them quarreling last night. It seemed that I returned to the room too late and the captain didn't open the door. After a long quarrel, they finally let me in."
Xue Lan nodded seriously after hearing this.
He turned around to look at Wen Yan and Duan Wenzheng, who looked unhappy, and withdrew his gaze as if thinking about something.
It seems that the two of them haven't reconciled after their quarrel, but if Meng Qi leaves today, Duan Wenzheng will move out of Wen Yan's room. Then they... won't have to be in a cold war for a longer time.
Xue Lan secretly kept this in mind, and finally waited until the end of a day's training. While Wen Yan was seeing Meng Qi off and Duan Wenzheng was still in the training room, he sneaked into Wen Yan's room and carefully placed a bottle of drink that he brought with him when he went to buy snacks next to Wen Yan's desk.
"Captain, thank you for your care. Please give me your guidance in the future. - reset."
He took out the note he had written long ago from his pocket and carefully placed it under his drink.
Captain (original text) was Duan Wenzheng's nickname for Wen Yan. Xue Lan looked at the drinks placed on the table with satisfaction.
Although the gift was not particularly expensive, Wen Yan never cared about those cumbersome and empty formalities. If he knew that Duan Wenzheng was a person who liked to quarrel with him, but secretly bought him water to express his gratitude when he was about to move out... Wen Yan would definitely change his impression of Duan Wenzheng!
And with Wen Yan's personality, he would never mention this matter to Duan Wenzheng. He would only secretly take good care of Duan Wenzheng!
Xue Lan put the drinks away, sneaked out of Wen Yan's room, and returned to the training room, pretending nothing had happened.
After team training, each person has individual training time.
Xue Lan was dragged by Qi Siyu to participate in the qualifying match. When it came to the third match, the door of the training room was opened to send Meng Qi and Wen Yan back.
In fact, Xue Lan originally thought that Wen Yan would not come to the training room again after sending Meng Qi off. After all, no one would be calm after a team member retired. But when Xue Lan accidentally saw Wen Yan walking into the training room with the bottle of drink he had placed in the room, his eyes lit up instantly.
As expected, Wen Yan passed by Duan Wenzheng, walked quietly to his seat, and casually placed the bottle of drink next to the computer.
Zhou Kanqing watched Wen Yan walk in. His eyes fell on the drink that Wen Yan placed next to the computer, and he asked in confusion: "Ayan, you don't want to drink the drink?"
Xue Lan was at a loss, as the original text did not mention details such as whether Wen Yan drank beverages or not... If Wen Yan really didn't drink beverages, would he dislike the gift Duan Wenzheng gave him
Wen Yan turned on his computer and answered casually, "I started drinking recently."
Xue Lan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, his heart leaping with joy.
But at this moment, Wen Yan suddenly said: "Reset."
Xue Lan's body stiffened.
Duan Wenzheng was playing solo. He casually took off half of his headset and responded. Wen Yan's eyes fell on him. After a while, he spoke again when Xue Lan was tense: "Practice solo more recently. In the new season, I hope you can play with me."
"kindness."
"The last time I did a pretty good job with the sniper burst, but this skill is hard to control and I need more practice."
Xue Lan, who was eavesdropping on the side, breathed a sigh of relief again. Wen Yan had indeed begun to take good care of Duan Wenzheng! Duan Wenzheng, who was playing the game, didn't seem to expect Wen Yan to give him pointers and reminders. He turned his head in confusion and glanced at Wen Yan sitting next to him before responding.
"I know."
Everything seemed to be moving in a good direction. Xue Lan's game reading bar had just ended. He was quickly setting up the starting configuration when he suddenly heard Wen Yan speak again -
“exist.”
"Here!" Xue Lan hurriedly responded when his name was called, and nervously turned his head to look at Wen Yan: "What's the matter, Captain?"
"You spend more time practicing solo in ranked matches. The chip level can only be increased through ranked matches. In the early stages of professional competitions, the difference in chip level is not that big, but after the finals, these details become particularly important."
"I know." Xue Lan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Wen Yan opened the bottle of drink, took a sip and put it back, then raised his eyes and looked at Xue Lan again:
"besides-"
