Chapter 56: For What

There has never been a shortage of geniuses in this world.

The same is true in the game League of Legends.

Most people may only play gold or platinum for a year, while some people may only play for a month and easily become a diamond or even a master.

That's the difference.

The difference between an ordinary person and a genius.

Although ordinary people can make progress through hard work and shorten the gap between them and geniuses, once geniuses start to work hard, then no matter how hard ordinary people try, they will only be left far behind.

And Mu Jing is undoubtedly a member of this group of geniuses, but unfortunately he was born at the wrong time.

Despite the overwhelming power in the professional arena, the final result is still inevitable.

How many geniuses have come out of nowhere?

How many geniuses died halfway?

Nobody knows.

But Mu Jing was undoubtedly a lucky one, and he was given a second chance.

Although there are more powerful enemies waiting for him to overcome, he has a new life, a chance to start over, and the stage of all eyes awaits him.

The next morning, Mu Jing opened the curtains, looked at the bright sky outside the window, took a deep breath, and then changed his clothes and went out to run as usual.

Not long after Mu Jing ran, he found a familiar figure running in front of him, and couldn't help shouting, "Zhou Qi." ”

Hearing this, Zhou Qi stopped, then turned his head to look at Mu Jing who was running towards him.

"Mu Jing, did you run in the morning?" Zhou Qi asked curiously to Mu Jing, who had already walked in front of him.

"Hmm." Mu Jing nodded and admitted.

"Then why haven't I met you before?" Seeing Mu Jing following, Zhou Qi slowly ran towards the front again.

"Uh...... Maybe it's because we ran in different directions before. Mu Jing said blindly.

In fact, the fact is that Mu Jing has only been running in this world since the morning before yesterday, as for before......

At that time, Mu Jing in this world was just a big lazy worm who was used to sleeping until three poles in the morning, if he could meet Zhou Qi, it would be a real ghost.

The two ran silently for a while, and when they were about to run to the door of the community, Zhou Qi slowly slowed down, and then raised his right hand to wipe the fine sweat on his forehead.

"To be honest, Mu Jing, I still can't believe it." Zhou Qi said with his back to Mu Jing.

"Huh?" Mu Jing looked at Zhou Qi's back with some confusion, obviously not understanding what she was talking about.

"Obviously, I was a platinum five before, but in just two days, I have become a master who can easily crush diamonds." Zhou Qi turned around and looked at Mu Jing with a complicated expression, "It's really surprising." ”

"......" Hearing this, Mu Jing didn't speak, just quietly looked at Zhou Qi in front of him.

He had nothing to explain why his strength had increased by leaps and bounds, because he couldn't say the real reason at all.

What's more, maybe no one will believe it when he says it, but will only think that he is crazy.

"Whew, don't talk about that, how about you go to breakfast with me?" Zhou Qi exhaled, as if he had lifted the burden of his whole body.

"Okay." Mu Jing nodded lightly in agreement.

Zhou Qi, who got Mu Jing's consent, walked directly out of the gate of Ninghu Community, then walked to another street, and then turned into a remote alley and began to go around.

Mu Jing, who has a very strong memory, was not stunned by Zhou Qi, but also memorized the path he walked when he came.

"Alright, here we go." Suddenly, Zhou Qi stopped, and in front of her, a faint white light shone out from a small restaurant whose signboard was no longer clear.

"This is it?" Mu Jing, who also stopped, squinted slightly, and finally barely saw the blurred font on the signboard.

Tang early.

"Well, let's go inside." After speaking, Zhou Qi walked directly to the door of the small restaurant, pushed it open, and walked in.

And although Mu Jing had doubts about why Zhou Qi came to this remote place for breakfast, he still followed her in.

The place in the store is not large, only three rectangular wooden tables and a few chairs, and a silver-haired grandmother is greeting Zhou Qi at this time, looking very familiar with her.

"Qi girl, you're here."

"Good morning, Grandma Tang." Zhou Qi greeted the grandmother very politely.

"Okay, okay, are you still eating wontons today?" The old woman asked with her hands behind her back and a gentle smile on her face.

"Hmm." Zhou Qi nodded in response.

"Who is this lad?" The grandmother who was just about to prepare the wontons only noticed Mu Jing standing at the door at this time, and couldn't help asking.

"Grandma Tang, he's my friend." Zhou Qi explained for Mu Jing.

"Oh, it turned out to be a friend of the girl Qi, what do you want to eat, young man?" The old grandmother asked Mu Jing.

"Uh...... It's the same as Zhou Qi. ”

Mu Jing, who came to this breakfast shop for the first time, didn't see any menu on the wall that was convenient for him to choose, so he could only choose the same wontons as Zhou Qi.

After listening to this, the old woman nodded, and then went into the kitchen and got it up by herself.

"Zhou Qi, how did you find this store, it's remote enough." Mu Jing sat down and said to Zhou Qi.

"My parents brought me here." Zhou Qi said with his chin in his hands, as if he was thinking about something.

"Parents...... Is it? Mu Jing, who repeated these two words, also thought of his parents in this world, and couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

"A long time ago, when I was still in elementary school, when my parents were still working in City A, they would take me to Grandma Tang's house for breakfast every morning."

"Later, after my parents went to the city for company reasons, I would also come to breakfast alone, and over time I became a habit of eating a bowl of wontons every morning after a morning run."

Zhou Qi said while reminiscing.

"That's been a few years." Mu Jing sighed.

"yes, probably...... It's been six or seven years. Zhou Qi sighed and said.

"By the way, Zhou Qi, why do you want to play professionally?" Mu Jing looked at Zhou Qi and asked.

"Why do you want to play professionally? I don't know, but I just want to be the best I can be, and if I can't do the best, then at least I have to put in all my efforts. ”

Zhou Qi said very firmly.

"Is that so......" Mu Jing, who listened to Zhou Qi's answer, thought thoughtfully.

"What about you? A player like Mu Jing, who became a master at a young age, doesn't you want to play professionally? Zhou Qi threw Mu Jing's question to himself again.

"Yes, of course I do." Mu Jing replied equally firmly.

"Then Mu Jing, what are you doing professionally?" Zhou Qi continued to ask.

"For yourself." Mu Jing did not hesitate to say the reason for his career.

"For yourself?" After listening to Mu Jing's answer, Zhou Qi repeated it suspiciously, but it was a question sentence.

If Zhou Qi can still understand it in order to win the championship, then this reason for himself is really empty.

It's like if you ask a guy what he likes to eat and he replies that he likes to eat meat.

Although he answered, you still don't know what he likes to eat, whether he likes to eat fish, pork or beef; Eat stir-fried, stewed, or grilled meat.

"Yes, that's right, for myself." Mu Jing repeated again, and used two affirmative words in a row to accentuate his tone.

Zhou Qi wanted to ask a little more clearly, but at this time, the old grandmother walked out with two bowls of steaming wontons on a plate, so her question was interrupted.

"The ravioli are delicious." Just took a bite, Mu Jing praised.

The wontons with thin dough and meat filling are delicious with the broth, and they seem to be extra delicious because they are not refrigerated but prepared in advance.

The grandmother who heard Mu Jing's praise smiled on her face: "If it's delicious, eat more." ”

On the side, Zhou Qi didn't speak, just chewed and ate wontons slowly.

"How much does a bowl of wontons cost grandma?" Mu Jing, who quickly settled the remaining wontons, did not let Zhou Qi have the idea of treating, and directly paid for it and prepared to pay the bill.

And the grandmother who was standing aside and watching him eat the wontons with a smile shook her head when she heard this: "Qi girl has already paid."

"Paid?" Mu Jing looked at Zhou Qi, who was still eating wontons on the side, with a stunned face.

He had been sitting with Zhou Qi just now, and he didn't see when she paid the money.

"When I come to breakfast on the first of every month, I will pay Grandma Tang in advance for a month's breakfast."

Seeing that Mu Jing actually showed such a surprised expression, Zhou Qi couldn't help but smile and explained.

"Then I'll give you the money, how much?" Mu Jing looked at Zhou Qi, who had already finished eating the wontons, and asked.

"No need, I said that I asked you to come to breakfast with me, how can I make you pay, and a bowl of wontons wontons won't cost much."

Zhou Qi, who wiped the residual soup on his mouth with a tissue, stood up, obviously not planning to accept Mu Jing's money.

Seeing this, Mu Jing didn't insist anymore, and after Zhou Qi said goodbye to her grandmother, she returned to Ninghu Community with her.

"See you at school." Zhou Qi waved his hand at Mu Jing and parted ways directly, walking slowly in the direction of his home.

Mu Jing stood in place and watched Zhou Qi's back disappear in front of him, and then walked towards the community.

…………

We've come so far that we've forgotten what we set out for.

Mu Jing in the past carried the hopes of so many people that he himself didn't know what he was fighting for.

Maybe it's for money, it's for fame, it's for fans who like him, it's for proving itself in front of those black fans who hate him, or maybe it's for the glory of the country.

But now Mu Jing, who has regained his life, understands.

He was not for money, not for fame, not for anyone else, not for some ethereal sense of national honor.

Maybe it used to be, but now......

All he knows is:

League of Legends is a game, and he wants to be the strongest player in the game, and then lead the strongest team to the highest honor, it's that simple!

He plays the game and then wins!
