Chapter 35: Obsession
Mu Bai came down from upstairs with Ruan Qian and sat down opposite the two.
"Grandpa Shi, don't listen to this kid's nonsense, although what the little girl said just now is a bit exaggerated, but it is the truth. After a long time, he ran out of the club, and the little girl was anxious for a long time. ”
"Mu Bai, you, you, you ......"
I didn't expect the betrayal from my brother to come so quickly, and my grandfather, who had spent so much effort to coax him, was crying so much just now, but now after listening to Mu Bai's words, he directly blocked his tears and pushed Shi Jiu away from his arms.
"You kid, you dare to lie to your grandfather and me!"
When the old man said that, he was about to swing his cane again and hit Shi Jiu, this time, Mu Bai finally had a little conscience and stopped the old man, Shi Jiu was like having a backer, hiding behind Mu Bai.
"Grandpa, it's been so old for a long time, I have something to say."
Mu Bai comforted the old man and sat down again, but he didn't dare to sit back for a long time, and sat down in the position next to Ruan Qian.
Grandpa has always been the most courteous, this is the guest brought by Mu Bai, and he will never make a move on the guest!
"You stinky boy, tell me, what the hell is going on?"
Old Man Shi didn't want to punish Shi Jiu for no reason, so he had to figure out the situation first.
"Grandpa, don't worry about our young people's affairs, I'm not a child anymore, I can solve my own affairs by myself."
Mu Bai is also very helpless for a long time, this grandfather and grandson have never been able to sit together and talk with each other, solve problems, and when they meet, they are either noisy or tired of each other, it's difficult!
"Grandpa Shi, don't be angry with him, he is in the period of youth and rebellion, and it is the time to disobey discipline, he wants to contradict you whatever you say, so let's leave this matter to me, and I promise to solve it for you."
Mu Bai still has some credibility here when the old man is here, after all, Mu Bai has not cleaned up the mess for a long time since he was a child.
What's more, now that Mu Bai is in the heart of Old Man Shi, he is much more reliable than Shi Jiu.
Shi Jiu and Mu Bai are also out and about, Mu Bai has been sharpening his sword for ten years, from an assistant to a well-known lawyer now, even when he talks about it, the old man has a bright face.
But after graduating for a long time, he entered the club, and in the opinion of the old man, he was not doing his job, and he only knew how to play games every day.
As a result, now it's not even fun to play the game, and I ran home irresponsibly to be a rice worm.
"Okay, grandpa handed over this matter to you, I'll go find the old man to play chess."
Old Man Shi had actually figured it out in his heart a long time ago, regardless of the affairs of the younger generation, but he couldn't help but want to be closer to them, but now the more troublesome he is, the more distant he wants to be.
A qualified parent must know how to leave at the right time!
When the old man went out, Mu Bai sent a message to ask Wang Meng, who was hiding in the corner, to come to the living room.
Since it's for a long time, it's not a way to hide like this, so it's better to solve the matter quickly, and it won't be a waste of each other's time.
When Wang Meng received the news, she was hiding next to a big tree not far from the villa, and now she has no momentum in the club before, but like a fleeing refugee.
Now stretching out the head is a knife, and shrinking the head is also a knife, it is better to cut through the mess with a quick knife.
"Fight!"
When Wang Meng walked in front of Shi Jiu with a majestic and high-spirited pace, Shi Jiu was even more bored in his heart.
I did something wrong, I didn't have any remorse at all, and I was still so arrogant?
After a long time, he felt that he was thick-skinned, but he didn't expect Wang Meng to be even better than him.
"Sit down!"
Mu Bai glanced away for a long time, and arranged for Wang Meng to sit down on the sofa for another time.
And Ruan Qian had an attitude of watching a good show from beginning to end, sitting in the corner without saying a word.
However, as a front-line melon-eating crowd, Ruan Qian was very excited at this moment.
Are you finally going to start eating melons now?
Watching this scene is a bit like being in the courtroom, Mu Bai is the judge, Wang Meng is the plaintiff, and Shi Jiu is the defendant.
"So what's your main appeal here?"
Mu Bai ignored the long-term frowning and asked Wang Meng directly about the purpose of her trip, which was also convenient for solving the fundamental problem.
"I want him to go back. Because he left suddenly, as the captain of the team and as a member of the WZ club, his impulsive behavior had a very bad effect on the club, and the next competitive match was just around the corner, without him, WZ would not have won. ”
Wang Meng almost saw it, if this time is said to be the demon king of the mixed world, it will not be invaded by all poisons, but in front of Mu Bai, she is obedient like a cat, if the problem is not solved at this moment, she will be left alone in the future, and she will have no chance to face it for a long time.
"What about you, what do you think?"
After Mu Bai knew Wang Meng's general attitude, he turned to look at Shi Jiu.
"I'm not going back! I just like to play games, at club and at home, what's the difference? I can now earn a lot of money by playing games on live streaming, and I have no problem supporting myself. What's more, I don't have any difficulty in capital turnover now, and my life is very rich, so I don't need to do things I don't like. ”
I've always been willful, what I do depends on my mood, and I will make a choice on impulse, which was the case at the beginning, and it's the same when I go to the WZ club.
As a rich second generation, Shi Jiu's family has a lot of money, even if he doesn't do anything every day, he can enjoy glory and wealth, so Shi Jiu's personality is used to it casually, and freedom is a necessity for his uninhibited soul.
"If you don't want to go back, why did you go to the club in the first place? The club has spent time and experience developing you to get to where you are today, and what have you contributed to the club? ”
Mu Bai knows Shi Jiu's character very well, he has always pursued his so-called freedom, fairness and value, but his current approach does not match the concept he pursues.
"I, I've led the team to several championships, and while the club has made me famous, why can't I make a contribution?"
Shi Jiu was obviously a little weak-hearted, but in front of Wang Meng, it was impossible for him to be defeated.
"And I have already paid the liquidated damages according to the price agreed in the contract, which is more than enough, even if it is compensation to the club."
"Then why leave quietly?"
Mu Bai did not chase after this question, but chose to divert the topic.
"Why did I leave quietly? I told her the night before I left, and I left a letter to the people at the club, so it was a goodbye, and everyone just broke up. ”
"I thought you were joking, but who knew you were real."
Wang Meng knew that Shi Jiu was such an unreliable person, so he should have stayed up all night, guarded the door of his room, and said nothing to let him leave.
"Cut, I said you didn't take it to heart, and it's my fault. And when have I ever joked with you? I've always been true to my word, and our relationship hasn't reached the point where I can joke about it. ”
In the heart of a long time, there is a very clear wall of distance and distance, and the distance into this wall does not depend on time, but on the distance between hearts.
When he joined the club, he also joined the club on a whim, and he just wanted Mu Bai to see that even if Mu Bai was not by his side, he could still live brilliantly and beautifully.
However, who knew that Mu Bai had less and less time to play games after graduation, and Mu Bai was devoted to his career, either working overtime or going to work, and he had no free time to play games.
Slowly, without Mu Bai's game world, it was only supported by that little obsession for a long time, but no matter how many championships he won for a long time, he couldn't wait for Mu Bai's affirmation of him.
Over time, when facing the game, he no longer had the enthusiasm he had at the beginning, but it seemed that playing games had become a state of his life for so many years, so he had been sticking to it in a daze.
However, when I saw that familiar account again, Shi Jiu remembered his original intention and the purpose that he had buried in his heart for a long time.
Looking back on the time he wasted here, he only hated himself for waking up too late, he had been thinking about the things that he was thinking about, maybe Mu Bai had forgotten it a long time ago, so what was he still stubborn about here?
It's better to let go of your obsession early and pursue the life you really want.
"So how do you think the current matter is going to be resolved? Because you've created a vacancy for the club and added an element of uncertainty to the upcoming competition, you can not care about the outcome of the competition, but it is the dream of your teammates to win the tournament with a trophy. ”
Now that it has become like this, Mu Bai knows that Shi Jiu will definitely not go back, and Shi Jiu is not really fond of playing games, Mu Bai knows that he will not last long.
Instead of doing useless work here, it is better to find a solution.
"Well, didn't there just come out of a contestant named Mr. X recently, I went to find him to take my place, his ability is above me, I believe he can do better than me. This is my final amendology to the club. ”
Mu Bai hasn't cared about those things in the game circle for a long time, but since he can take the initiative to admit that the other party is stronger than himself, his strength should not be underestimated.
Since the long time has now created a vacancy, it would be good to have a stronger person fill the vacancy.
"Do you think what he said works?"
Mu Bai turned to Wang Meng and asked her opinion.
Wang Meng obviously hesitated when he heard Mr. X, this Mr. X is hot now, how many teams want to poach him but have not succeeded, but if he can really join the team for a long time, it will have a greater role in promoting the future development of the club.
"Then I'll call the boss and ask."
This matter is more important, Wang Meng doesn't dare to make decisions privately, she is just a part-time worker from beginning to end, and her words don't count.
