As the saying goes, you don't hit someone who smiles at you... That's not true.
Shen Yanming narrowed his eyes and spoke politely at first: "Sorry, I'm allergic to milk tea."
Zhuo Minxing showed a disappointed look, but still did not put down his hand holding the milk tea: "Then you can give them to your other teammates to drink?"
I have to say that this little gay guy has a handsome face. It's hard to bear to see him frown and droop his lips. Unfortunately, Shen Yanming didn't buy it. When Zhuo Minxing said this again, Shen Yanming gave a perfunctory fake smile: "Our whole team is allergic to milk tea."
If the previous rejection was considered euphemistic, the unfriendly meaning of the latter sentence was very obvious. Zhuo Minxing opened his mouth and uttered one word after a long while: "You..."
When they met by chance in the barber shop before, Zhuo Minxing felt that Shen Yanming seemed to be a little indifferent to him, but he didn't care much at that time. Some players are just like that. And to be honest, he didn't take this player seriously at that time. Even if he was a member of TMM, he was a broadcaster, not a very powerful broadcaster. Who knows how far he can go
But after watching the game today, Zhuo Minxing knew that this was not only a potential stock, but also a definite candidate for the next championship.
He wanted to connect with all these powerful players for no other reason than to vent his anger in front of someone.
He used to have a boyfriend who was a high school student. After that guy joined the youth training team of a certain team, he gradually started to dislike him. At first, he said that he was too busy with training to care about these things. Later, he found out that the guy was having an affair with a female commentator, so he wanted to find an excuse to dump him.
Zhuo Minxing's idea is very simple. His ex-boyfriend thinks he is the best in the world and looks down on him, so he will mix into their circle and stay with those who are stronger than them, to let them know that he can chat and laugh with those who are more powerful, and see if the other party will be embarrassed and angry because of this.
This idea seemed naive, but after Zhuo Minxing built good relationships with some contestants and let his ex-boyfriend know intentionally or unintentionally, and then looked at the other party's Weibo accounts' angry comments, Zhuo Minxing felt that he had tasted the sweetness.
To put it another way, even if he didn't do it for venting, just knowing these well-known people in the gaming community would be enough to satisfy his vanity.
Once this seed sprouted in his heart, it quickly grew. He was no longer satisfied with knowing a few players who had not yet made their mark but seemed to have potential; he wanted to make friends directly with people from strong teams.
It would be even better if there were a few like-minded people among him with whom he could develop other relationships.
…
Zhuo Minxing was a little upset at first when his milk tea was rejected, but after calming down and thinking about it, he could understand it. After all, it was normal for contestants not to take things brought by outsiders. They had only met once, so they could not be considered acquaintances. In the past, there were often news reports about contestants who had serious consequences after eating things brought by fans, so it was not surprising that the contestants were on guard.
Zhuo Minxing smiled again and was about to say something else when he saw Shen Yanming took out his cell phone and made a call: "Hello, is this the NPC at the venue? There is a suspicious person sneaking in from the backstage. Please call the security guard to get him out... And your security work really needs to be strengthened. Why can anyone get in?..."
Zhuo Minxing’s smile froze on his face.
After Shen Yanming finished his call, he walked forward on his own. Zhuo Minxing's face froze, and he quickened his pace behind him, trying to catch up with him: "I'm not a suspicious person, I'm a friend of Bored..."
Shen Yanming's head was buzzing because of his noise. He didn't want to pay any more attention to him. Seeing that this man was really not giving up, he turned around and said, "You are Bored's friend, not my friend. If you have anything to say, go talk to your friends..."
Before he could finish his words, the staff member who received Shen Yanming's complaint brought two security guards over and questioned Zhuo Minxing. They found that he had indeed slipped into the backstage without any relevant documents. Zhuo Minxing insisted that he was a friend of bored at first. As a result, the staff called bored to confirm and got this reply: "No, it seems that he is a fan. We said in the fan group that we wanted to buy milk tea but were too lazy to go. We were about to order takeout. This person said in the group that he could bring it to us... But we didn't agree to let him come."
Zhuo Minxing's whole face turned red and white, it was so exciting.
Shen Yanming watched the show for a while without making any comment. He said "thank you for your hard work" to the staff and continued walking back.
Before he even reached the lounge, he saw He Changkong coming out, heading in his direction. When Shen Yanming saw his brother Kong coming, the unhappiness he had just felt from being entangled by the Plague God immediately disappeared.
He waved his hand, then took two steps at a time and jumped in front of He Changkong: "Brother, why are you out?"
He Changkong said: "Since you haven't come back for so long, I was worried that you might have gotten lost."
Shen Yanming smiled and tried to put his elbow on He Changkong's shoulder. He was obviously shorter than He Changkong, so it was very strenuous for him to do this, but he just enjoyed it. When he finally got it right, he said, "How can you get lost when you're so old?"
He Changkong glanced at him and said, "Isn't it common for Samoyeds to get lost?"
"Damn," Shen Yanming recalled the joke he had just made with the host. He had never expected that He Changkong would cooperate with him. For a little old-fashioned person, this was really a great improvement! Shen Yanming then followed suit and said, "The owner is good to me, I will definitely not get lost."
"Well," He Changkong paused, and then said, "I don't mind your black hair growing out. I just said it casually."
Rather than saying it was just a casual remark, it would be more accurate to say that he just found an insignificant sentence to cover up his other feelings at the time. He didn't expect that Shen Yanming actually cared about it.
Shen Yanming was finally tired and took his elbow off He Changkong's shoulder: "No, I think I need to touch up the color... You said it would be great if I were a 2D paper character, born with colorful hair, and I wouldn't have to worry about black hair growing out... No, brother, do you think people in cartoons would secretly dye their hair when they don't have a role to play?"
He Changkong: "... maybe, otherwise it would be unreasonable."
Shen Yanming: "Hahahaha you're so serious, I was just saying it casually."
"..." He Changkong said, "Always bleaching is not good for your hair. It looks good like this." He Changkong was not lying. Shen Yanming had good facial features and she would not look ugly no matter how she bleached her hair.
Shen Yanming wavered again: "Then I'll see what Ding Ding Jiang says. If he wants to dye his hair too, I'll go with him."
"Well," He Changkong said as he walked back, "Let's go, the coach said we should review the game briefly first, and then he will take us to eat barbecue."
When he returned to the base at night, Shen Yanming took a shower and ran straight to He Changkong's room as usual. He was too lazy to even move his quilt and pillow, so he just left them with He Changkong, treating him as his second home.
When he entered the room, He Changkong seemed to be still taking a shower. He rolled onto the bed as if he was in the right place, hugged the quilt and played with his cell phone.
When He Changkong came out, he saw Shen Yanming grinning foolishly at the phone screen.
Hearing the sound of the bathroom door opening, Shen Yanming couldn't wait to raise his phone to show He Changkong: "Brother! Everyone on the Internet is praising us!"
When He Changkong saw Shen Yanming coming over, he had something else to say to him, but after being interrupted, he leaned over to take a look at the content on the phone screen. They played really well in this game, and the wind direction on the Internet has changed. Now everyone has become a TMM fan. Some people even went to the official blog to brag about it, saying that the team officials were really foresighted and really found a treasure.
I don’t know if they are the same group of people who made sarcastic remarks before.
He Changkong said, "Just wait and see. There are still many games to come. After qualifying from the regular season, you still have to play in the playoffs. There may be some other scattered events in between. There are endless games. Of course they will praise you if you win, but there is no such thing as a permanent winner. Sometimes if you lose... they will still scold you if you lose. So don't take their words too seriously."
"That makes sense," Shen Yanming rolled over. Of course he knew all this, "but I'm still happy to be praised... Look at this."
It was a comment under an official Weibo post reporting the battle results. It was pushed to the front. The comment was too long, so the guy wrote it in several sections.
-There were all kinds of opinions online before, some brainless, some brainless, some brainless, some brainless, but I didn't take them seriously before Chaos Brother officially played. Now seeing his performance, I just want to say Chaos Brother... Now I should say it's tmm chaos, he was born to be on this team, he can cooperate with every team member very freely, they are like several gears in a watch, perfectly meshed together, they work together to make the hands on the dial move. It's meaningless to take any of them out alone.
-In addition, other comments say that Kong can maximize the potential of his partners, but in my opinion, this is not the case. It is better to say that Chaos has this ability, but he has never met a partner who can let him go. It is not just Kong. As I said before, they are indispensable. If the other two players did not cooperate, they might not be able to do some operations today.
Of course, there were also people who disagreed with this comment, saying that this person was exaggerating too much... Shen Yanming pretended not to see any of them.
He really felt that this comment touched his heart.
Shen Yanming rubbed his face and said, "To be honest, I used to play team games and it was no different from playing alone. I was confused later. I really liked it and wanted to win the championship, but..."
After saying "but" for a long time, Shen Yanming couldn't explain it. He Changkong gave him a comforting look: "It's all over."
"So I think what this person said is absolutely right. I am so lucky to meet you guys," Shen Yanming grinned again, "We are really a perfect match."
He Changkong's heart skipped a beat when he heard the second half of the sentence.
It took him a while to realize that Shen Yanming should be talking about the team.
"I think so too. I should work harder in the future," he sighed imperceptibly, suppressing his frivolous thoughts, "By the way..."
Shen Yanming tilted his head: "What?"
He Changkong said hesitantly: "Why don't you go back to your room?" He Changkong wanted to say it just now, but Shen Yanming started talking to him about something else first, so he hesitated a little.
This sounded like an order to get rid of him. In fact, He Changkong didn't really want to get rid of him. He liked the feeling when Shen Yanming unconsciously leaned into his arms every night. His arms and his heart were filled to the brim. But before was before. Before, they could be said to be good brothers sleeping together. Now...
Even though there were still some things he hadn't figured out clearly, he spent a long time admitting that he had developed feelings for Shen Yanming that went beyond friendship.
If you know you have a crush on someone and still take advantage of them, you are not a gentleman.
What's more, Shen Yanming seemed to be very frank with him. What would Shen Yanming think if he knew that his thoughts were not completely pure
Shen Yanming didn't know that He Changkong had thought so much. He was shocked: "You still say you don't dislike me!!! You don't even let the dog get on your bed! How can you be like that! I'm going to complain to the Animal Protection Association about you!"
