"Son, I heard that you are in the top ten of the national uniform? Dad came to see you. An old-fashioned hoarse voice sounded behind Yan An.

The first time this voice came out, Yan An didn't feel that this person was talking to them, until she heard Zhu Yu reply: "Get out, garbage, Dad is in the top ten, where are you?"

Yan An looked at Zhu Yu in surprise, she had never heard him speak so casually with a smile, although he didn't speak very well.

She turned around and wanted to see the person who called Zhu Yu her father.

His eyes collided head-on with a white and innocent little boy. The little boy has a pair of standard peach blossom eyes, so much so that when he looks at her, he has some affection in it. This person's facial features and skin are relatively soft, and he has the kind of girlish appearance in the eyes of most boys.

Yan An didn't react at first, until the boy spoke again and asked in a striking hoarse voice, "Son, who is this?"

Yan An was immediately stunned on the spot, listening to such a boy with such a good appearance saying such things in such a voice, as if he had bought a cute-looking cream cake in the exquisite dessert window, but when he cut it, he found that the sandwich inside was a strange durian.

The boy was a little embarrassed by her attentive gaze, hurriedly looked away, opened his mouth to Zhu Yu again, and asked, "Is it my daughter-in-law?"

Zhu Yu smashed the pillow on the sofa on his head, introduced Yan An to him, said that he was at the same table, and came to give him something.

Then he introduced the other party to Yan An, and said the same concisely, "Wang Xuyao, my son." ”

"You...... Hello. ”

Yan An greeted each other awkwardly, she was a little reacting now, and now the little boys seem to like to call each other dad, which is quite commonplace.

The boy named Wang Xuyao sat down close to Zhu Yu. There were three boys squeezed on the sofa on their side, their thighs and arms against each other, and Yan An looked uncomfortable for them. She looked at the long sofa she had to her own, and she couldn't tell which of them to sit down.

Yan An ordered a bowl of noodle soup, and while waiting for the food to be served, the three boys opposite began to talk about the game.

She pulled out her textbook, trying to ease the embarrassment of not being able to join the chat.

In the afterglow, the boy named Wang Xuyao has been very excited, although Yan An can only understand a small part of what he says, he will still be infected by his emotions. Zhu Yu changed his laziness and ignorance at school, and also responded to him with great enthusiasm, and it seemed that the whole person burst with a kind of vitality, really like a teenager.

As soon as Yan An turned the page of the textbook, he listened to their conversation come to an abrupt end. She looked up curiously, and saw Zhu Yu covering Wang Xuyao's mouth with one hand, he glanced at Yan An apologetically, and said, "Little girl is here, pay attention to what you say." ”

Yan An thought about it for a while, it seemed that he had heard a short period of impolite verbal language just now, but it was too common for boys to communicate and speak with one or two swear words, and Yan An usually didn't know how much to hear in school.

No, Zhu Yu doesn't seem to swear.

Wang Xuyao took Zhu Yu's hand away and said to Yan An apologetically: "I'm sorry, I'll pay attention, I'll pay attention." ”

Yan An smiled, who did he think that boys who love to play games don't learn to be confused?

The noodle soup was brought and placed on the lower coffee table, and Zhu Yu sat down to eat his pasta. Yan An put down the textbook, bent down, and immediately, the back collar of his clothes was grabbed.

This sudden grab made Yan An a little frizzy, and she looked up, only to see Zhu Yu's face. He whispered, "The collar is low." ”

Yan An hurriedly covered his collar, and when he saw that the two people on the opposite side were eager to bury their heads in the floor, he could only smile awkwardly.

After eating, Zhu Yu said to send her back.

The owner of this Internet café came over just now and said that many people came to Zhu Yu to surf the Internet and asked him if he would continue for a while. Yan An didn't want to delay him, so he said that he would take the bus back.

"It's getting dark. Zhu Yu only said this, and then lifted her schoolbag.

The boy who brought her in before, the boy they called "Pomegranate", followed by Yinghe: "That's it, it's dark, how dangerous you are a girl." ”

At this time, they had already left the door of the Internet café, and Wang Xuyao and Pomegranate sent them here. When he turned around, Yan An heard Wang Xuyao ask Pomegranate: "Isn't this really my daughter-in-law?"

Yan An turned around, and could only see the backs of the two of them turning around.

Zhu Yu carried her schoolbag, and the bear pendant on her bag swayed back and forth with his walking. Yan An saw that he lowered his head and didn't speak, so he could only find something to talk to him by himself.

"Do you come to the Internet café every day after school?"

"Hmm. ”

"Eating and sleeping in Internet cafes?" Yan An was curious, she usually didn't look energetic when she saw him in the classroom, she asked, "Don't you go home?"

"Come back sometimes. ”

"Sometimes?"

"When there's someone at home. ”

Yan An walked a few steps, but still cautiously asked, "...... your parents?"

"I'm too busy at work to take care of me. ”

Oh, it's not like she thinks it's the situation.

When the bus arrived, there were just a few empty seats in the last row, and Yan An sat in the window seat. The sky outside was completely dark, and the neon billboards were all lit up, showing a sense of ethereal lighting in Yan An's line of sight. This is one of the reasons why Yan An has never felt a sense of belonging to the city. The city is so beautiful and prosperous, but her life is not like this.

She asked Zhu Yu, "Do you want to pursue a career-related to games in the future?"

"Do you mean a pro?" asked Zhu Yu.

"I don't know much about these ......"

"The pros of esports are like sports players. It's just that there are no particularly rigorous and standardized e-sports events in China, so there are no standardized and professional players. ”

"There will be a day like that. Yan An said firmly.

After all, before she died, there was an e-sports stadium not far from her home, which could accommodate more than 10,000 people, and there were several events held every week, which were often reported in the TV media.

Zhu Yu is like a pianist's fingers kneading the bear on her schoolbag. Yan An's eyes were empty and in a daze, and he suddenly heard Zhu Yu ask without a head:

"Do you think that playing games is not a proper business?"

Zhu Yu looked at her too seriously, so that Yan An, who was about to blurt out, "It's okay in general", swallowed back in an instant.
