One
Sure enough, Meng Yi did not appear in the training room.
The others, as usual, sat in their seats and prepared to start training, but only Meng Yi's place seemed empty.
There was no Meng Yi's cheerful voice in the training room, which made people feel a little lonely.
Gu Feng sat on the chair and looked at the computer screen a little absentmindedly.
From time to time, there was also the sound of being killed from the Jiecheng side.
Gu Feng sighed, it seemed that everyone was feeling anxious because of Meng Yi's disappearance.
Just when the atmosphere in the training room became more and more irritable, Zheng Fan appeared at the door, took off his hat in the dust, and saw the worried expressions of everyone in the training room.
"What's wrong?" Zheng Fan walked to Meng Yi's seat, "Huh? What about Meng Yi? ”
"She'......" Jiecheng hesitated, "we don't know where she went." ”
Zheng Fan's eyes widened and he looked at Gu Feng for a moment.
When he saw Gu Feng's expression, he was very surprised and said, "How come, I still saw her this morning." ”
"What?!" Gu Feng and Jie Cheng stood up at the same time and shouted in unison.
"Ah...... Calm down. Zheng Fan smiled helplessly, and hurriedly waved his hand to let the two sit down.
Zheng Xia on the side was silent.
Zheng Fan continued: "When I went to the office today, I met Meng Yi at the door of the school's No. 2 teaching building, but she seemed to be a little flustered, looking around sneakily, and then went in, because the instructor shouted that I was in a hurry, so I didn't care. ”
"That is to say," Gu Feng clenched his fists and said seriously, "she is still in school." ”
Zheng Fan nodded, but was still puzzled: "It should be like this, but why didn't Meng Yi come, did something happen?" ”
Gu Feng didn't answer, and got up to find her.
"Wait a minute! I'll go too! ”
Gu Feng suddenly stopped and looked back at Zheng Xia who said this.
Zheng Xia stood up, her cheeks were flushed, her right arm was raised high, her expression looked a little nervous, and her two big bright eyes stared at Gu Feng seriously.
"Ah...... I ...... myself."
"Let me go too!" Zheng Xia interrupted Gu Feng, and his tone was decisive.
Gu Feng hesitated, but did not refuse: "Let's go." ”
Gu Feng said, turned around and left.
Zheng Xia responded happily, followed behind with a fart, bubbling happily, and left the training room with Gu Feng like a duckling.
After the two left, everyone else was stunned by this scene.
Jinghe said stunnedly: "I have never seen Senior Sister Zheng Xia look like this. ”
Zheng Fan also responded dumbfoundedly: "I...... Me neither. ”
Zheng Xia, who was called the "cold school flower" by all the boys in the school, actually had such a well-behaved appearance, and everyone present looked at each other without saying a word.
After a long time, Jinghe said again: "Maybe...... It's because of Senior Gu Feng......"
Everyone nodded in unison, turned to look at each other and smiled, and began to train.
Two
Back at the school, Gu Feng and Zheng Xia searched the school's teaching building and canteen, and even the snack street, but they still didn't see Meng Yi.
Zheng Xia held the box containing octopus balls in his hand and said, "Why haven't you seen anyone?" ”
"Yes......" Gu Feng said weakly.
"Let's go over there and find out." Zheng Xia chewed the balls in his mouth and said vaguely.
But Gu Feng on the side was depressed, as if he was out of his body.
"What's wrong?" Zheng Xia blinked innocently.
Gu Feng turned back slowly, only to see that all the male compatriots on the road were staring at him with red eyes, and instantly felt a chill behind him.
"I didn't ...... Nothing ......."
Gu Feng walked by himself, hoping to keep a safe distance from Zheng Xia, just now Zheng Xia subconsciously grabbed his arm, almost causing a panic.
"Didn't you even think about the serious consequences that your behavior would have on innocent me?" Gu Feng said in his heart, of course, this kind of thing is definitely impossible to say.
Although I am very conflicted, I can have such a beautiful girl by my side, and to be honest, I quite satisfy my vanity as a male college student.
Gu Feng ran with Zheng Xia all over the campus like this, but seeing that the sun was about to set, it would be even more difficult to find the students after class for a while.
Finally, after looking for even the grass, Gu Feng and Zheng Xia stood at the door of the school library together.
As we all know, the library is the soul of a school, where many aspiring young people who are struggling to study hard gather, but people like Gu Feng and his party who are addicted to games are estimated not to enter this kind of place until they graduate.
"Do you want to go in?" Gu Feng said, "There is only this kind of place left, and we even turned over the trash can." ”
Zheng Xia nodded firmly on the side: "Let's go." ”
"Hmm."
Speaking of which, Gu Feng took an extremely commemorative step, this was the first time he had stepped into this "holy land" since he entered the school
The two men walked cautiously, for fear of making a noise.
Gu Feng saw that Zheng Xia had a virtue with him, and asked softly, "Are you also here for the first time?" ”
Zheng Xia looked at Gu Feng and said, "That's right......"
Gu Feng didn't expect that such a girl had never been to the library.
But looking back, the environment of the library is indeed very quiet, only the faint sound of flipping books.
Gu Feng and Zheng Xia searched all over the first and second floors, but they didn't find their familiar figures.
However, the third floor of the library is a more demanding environment, and only students who are committed to higher degrees sit on the third floor of the library, because they forget to sleep and eat in order to study, and they rarely go back and forth in the library.
"It shouldn't be here," Gu Feng held on to the handrail of the stairs and asked softly, "Why don't we go back?" ”
Zheng Xia raised her head and looked casually, and suddenly found that in a seat not far away, there was a person in a gray sweatshirt who was very suspicious, because everyone else was looking intently at the book in her hand, and she was the only one who was sleeping, covering her head with her sweatshirt and hat, and her long hair exposed on the edge of the hat.
"Look at the man." Zheng Xia pointed with his finger.
Gu Feng looked in the direction of Zheng Xia's finger and also found the girl in the sweatshirt.
Suddenly, Gu Feng and Zheng Xia quietly walked to her side.
Zheng Xia rolled up her sleeves, revealing her slender white hand, and gently tapped her head.
"Hmm......" the girl woke up, "huh?!" ”
She turned her head and saw Gu Feng and Zheng Xia, her eyes widened.
Zheng Xia shouted softly: "Sure enough, it's you!" ”
Gu Feng also shouted softly: "It's actually you?!" ”
Three
In the blink of an eye, Meng Yi sat on a chair in the school pavilion, bowing his head to apologize.
"I'm sorry ......"
Gu Feng clasped his hands in front of his chest, pretending to be stern, and Zheng Xia on the side also followed his example, and the two stood in front of Meng Yi in tacit understanding.
"We're not here to hear you say this." Gu Feng said dryly.
"That's right, that's right." Zheng Xia chimed in beside him.
Meng Yi looked aggrieved and didn't dare to look directly at the two people in front of him.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have left without saying a word, but ......" Meng Yi lowered his head and rubbed his two thumbs back and forth, "but I don't know how to say it." ”
"It's okay, no matter what happens, we can solve it together."
"That's right, that's right."
Meng Yi's parents are very traditional, her mother and father are both teachers, and they have been very strict with Meng Yi's learning requirements since she was a child.
When Meng Yi was a child, she showed a high talent for video games, and in the era of arcades at that time, her cousin in her hometown often took her to the game hall in the township to play, she was not only able to understand the game quickly, but also in the competition with other boys, she naturally did not fall behind.
However, such days were soon discovered by his parents, and since then, Meng Yi has never been in contact with games, but Meng Yi still remembers those game screens, learning from the boys, operating the joystick and buttons.
After arriving at university, his parents naturally wanted Meng Yi to devote himself to studying and become a teacher in the future.
Of course, Meng Yi did not forget her parents' entrustment, but she did not agree.
But recently, I don't know where my parents learned that they play games in the e-sports stadium every day, so they strictly forbade Meng Yi to appear there again.
Meng Yi didn't want to make a big deal out of it, so he left without saying a word.
After listening to Meng Yi tell the reason for his embarrassment, Gu Feng and Zheng Xia's hands holding their chests slowly lowered and sat next to Meng Yi in silence.
Zheng Xia carefully held Meng Yi's hand, hoping to give her some comfort.
And Gu Feng on the other side of Meng Yi lowered his head slightly, thoughtful.
"I understand my parents' wishes, and I understand that I can't resist, so I can only ......"
"Just give up?" Gu Feng interrupted her, "Why give up?" ”
Meng Yi's eyes lit up: "Because they have always been like this, no matter how much I resist, they will only come up with their own set of arguments to refute me......"
When Meng Yi said this, his body couldn't help but tremble, and tear after tear fell on Zheng Xia's clenched hand.
Zheng Xia didn't know what to say, so she gently leaned Meng Yi's head against her chest and stroked her hair.
"I said it," Gu Feng got up slowly, "No matter what happens, we can solve it together." ”
"That's right, that's right."
"Let's go to your parents together and say, you want to play esports, you want to win championships!"
"Yes, that's right...... Well?! Zheng Xia was taken aback by this statement, and the hand stroking his hair stopped unconsciously.
"No, no, no! Don't do that! Meng Yi left Zheng Xia's embrace and stood up in a panic to refute Gu Feng's thoughts.
"It's counterproductive, and my parents won't approve of it." Meng Yi's tone was very weak, and his cheeks were slightly red by the autumn wind.
"Then I just want to ask you," Gu Feng said seriously, "Do you want to fight?" ”
Meng Yi nodded affirmatively: "I definitely want to, but ......"
"Then you must fight for it, if it continues like this, no one will be happy." Gu Feng stared at her with a firm tone.
"I ......"
"Don't hesitate," Gu Feng pulled up Zheng Xia, who was stunned next to him, with a young confident smile on his face, "I'll go with you together!" ”
Meng Yi saw Gu Feng asking for this, as long as he agreed, he still had no confidence in his heart.
After that, Gu Feng and Zheng Xia returned to the training room as usual, lying that Meng Yi was a little uncomfortable, so he was absent.
Seeing everyone's unquestioning reactions, the two could only force a smile.
In fact, they promised Meng Yi to keep this matter secret from Jiecheng and them first, and then explain it to everyone after the dust settled.
Four
The next day, Gu Feng was woken up by Zheng Xia's phone call very early.
"It's time to get up, what day did you forget today?"
"Huh? Is it your birthday today? ”
"You stupid! Today we are going to Meng Yi's house! ”
"Oh yes, yes, yes......" Gu Feng hurriedly got up from the bed, he studied tactics until late at night last night, and now his head still hurts faintly.
Gu Feng hurriedly got dressed, combed his hair casually, picked up a piece of bread and ran downstairs.
The process is quick.
The roommates all looked at Gu Feng who was so busy stupidly.
I couldn't help but ask, "This guy ...... How do you get up during the day? ”
As soon as Gu Feng came out of the dormitory building, he saw Zheng Xia not far away.
She is wearing a white trench coat today with a ponytail, pure and moving, not at all like a college student who is about to graduate.
But at this time, Zheng Xia was surrounded by people, both boys and girls, chattering and not knowing what they were talking about, but Zheng Xia's expression also looked helpless, and he kept reluctantly answering their words.
Just when Gu Feng was still thinking about how to pull Zheng Xia out, Zheng Xia discovered Gu Feng first.
"Gu Feng!!" Zheng Xia waved warmly to him in the crowd.
At the same time, those people also looked at Gu Feng not far away, their expressions surprisingly shocked.
Zheng Xia took the opportunity to break free from the crowd and trotted all the way to Gu Feng's side.
"I'm sorry," Zheng Xia leaned closer to Gu Feng's side, "Let's go, let's go." ”
Zheng Xia took Gu Feng's arm as he spoke, and walked in the opposite direction of the crowd.
Gu Feng pointed to the crowd behind him and said to Zheng Xia, "Are they okay?" ”
"Oh, let's go, let's go." Zheng Xia urged Gu Feng angrily.
When Gu Feng turned around, those people were still looking at themselves stupidly.
Gu Feng realized something in an instant, and hurriedly distanced himself from Zheng Xia.
Before he thought about it, Zheng Xia still held Gu Feng tightly, his expression a little nervous.
Zheng Xia looked at Gu Feng carefully, and was suddenly attracted by Gu Feng's head shape.
"What's the matter with you," Zheng Xia reached out and touched Gu Feng's hair, "How can you see people with such a hairstyle, go, I'll take you to my studio!" ”
Although Gu Feng refused in every possible way, Zheng Xia insisted on asking Gu Feng to come to his studio.
Zheng Xia's studio is in the basement of the No. 3 teaching building, which is a place for the activities of some clubs and departments of the school.
Zheng Xia and Gu Feng walked side by side, causing pedestrians along the way to whisper, and Gu Feng felt that his whole body was not very comfortable.
When he arrived at the studio, Zheng Xia asked Gu Feng to wait on the sofa for a while, and took out a comb and some bottles and cans.
After Zheng Xia's operation, Gu Feng's head shape gradually became normal, and he no longer had such a scattered and flowing hairstyle.
Zheng Xia looked at his "work" with satisfaction, and did not forget to sigh that his technique was superb.
Gu Feng smiled helplessly, and then turned on his phone to look at the time.
"It's over! It's already nine o'clock! It is estimated that Meng Yi has already arrived! ”
Gu Feng stood up in a panic, Zheng Xia also exclaimed, hurriedly put away his tools, and left the studio with Gu Feng.
Five
Meng Yi sat on the bench at the bus stop sign, raising his wrist from time to time to look at the time.
Finally, he sighed helplessly and prepared to get up and leave.
"Wait a minute!!" Gu Feng shouted to Meng Yi, "We're here!" ”
Meng Yi's expression gradually eased, and when he saw Gu Feng and Meng Yi coming to him panting together, the scene was a little funny, but his hanging heart was also let go.
At least they have the heart to help themselves, Meng Yi secretly affirmed.
"You're late." Meng Yi said.
"I'm sorry...... There was a little bit of a situation on the road. Gu Feng was out of breath.
Meng Yi smiled, covered his mouth slightly, his eyes were crooked, and he looked very cute.
And that's the end of this cheerful atmosphere.
Meng Yi's home is actually not far from the school, and it only takes three stops by bus.
Walking to the door of Meng Yi's house, Gu Feng swallowed his saliva unconsciously, of course, there were two others who were as nervous as Gu Feng.
"Is it decided?" Meng Yi was holding the key in her hand, and Gu Feng could obviously see that her hands were trembling slightly.
"Hmm." Gu Feng responded.
The three of them walked into the house in turn, Meng Yi's home was not big, and what greeted them was the four big words "self-improvement" on the sofa in the living room.
The overall decoration style of the house is also very traditional, the gray walls are hung with red and gold calendars, the living room does not even have a TV, there is a burst of sulking in the face, the windows are shining with light, falling on the low four-corner table, quiet, very depressing.
"You sit on the couch first, and I'll call my parents."
Gu Feng nodded, but did not sit down immediately, Zheng Xia walked towards the position of the sofa, but was stopped by Gu Feng.
"Let's not sit until the elders have sat down." Gu Feng said softly.
Zheng Xia suddenly realized, left from the position just now, and leaned against Gu Feng's side.
After a long time, Meng Yi came out of the room with her parents.
After Meng Yi's parents sat in the middle of the sofa, Gu Feng and Zheng Xia sat on the stool that Meng Yi moved out and sat face to face with them.
Meng Yi's mother and father both look like teachers, and they are very strict teachers, and the traces of engaging in education are clear on their faces, and they inevitably have a little vicissitudes after hard work, and their faces are also subconsciously frowning.
Meng Yi sensibly made a pot of tea, poured it for his parents, and then looked in Gu Feng's direction.
Gu Feng waved his hand lightly, signaling that there was no need to pour tea.
Putting down the teapot, Meng Yi took the opportunity to stand beside Gu Feng and Zheng Xia.
"The purpose of your coming, I have already heard from my family Meng Yi." Meng Yi's father was the first to speak.
"Uncle...... Please listen to ...... first" Gu Feng stumbled nervously.
"No need," Father Meng took a sip of tea and said unhurriedly, "We will not agree to the so-called request to play e-sports." ”
When Meng Yi heard this, he lowered his head and rubbed his fingers, looking very nervous.
Gu Feng had already guessed this sentence, but in this case, he really didn't know how to answer.
"I understand your expectations of Meng Yi," Gu Feng said, "but please also understand Meng Yi's thoughts carefully, e-sports is not the kind of ...... you imagined."
"Then you tell me," Father Meng put down the teacup and said in the tone of a teacher educating a child, "What is e-sports, do you understand it yourself?" ”
"I ......" Gu Feng was speechless, because he couldn't tell what e-sports meant.
"E-sports is just a few kids who are addicted to the Internet sitting around playing games, and they still win or lose? Win the championship? It's the difference from playing bunker jumping when you were kids, it doesn't have any value, it doesn't make any sense. Father Meng said, squinting his eyes contemptuously, looking like he was winning.
"No, it's completely different from what you said," Gu Feng retorted weakly, "E-sports is a valuable ......"
"What value can it be?" Meng's father is the same as ever.
"We actually understand that you children love to play," Meng Yi's mother tried her best to keep her voice calm, "I also know about the so-called e-sports, but obviously, everyone will only remember the person who won the championship, and in my opinion, e-sports is just that." ”
This sentence was like a sharp sword piercing Gu Feng's heart.
It seems that this is indeed the case, he used to be beautiful for a while, and he was called a "genius" by everyone, but after he failed to win the championship, no one cared about him since, and he couldn't find his shadow on the Internet.
Gu Feng lowered his head, countless painful memories hit his consciousness, and what he had said to Meng Yi at the beginning was slightly shaken.
"Not so, aunt and uncle."
A crisp and sweet voice came from his ears, like a spring covering his dry psychological defense.
Zheng Xia looked at Gu Feng beside him, and there was a trace of distress in his eyes.
However, in an instant, Zheng Xia's eyes were full of determination: "E-sports is not just about playing games, if you want to really walk on the road of e-sports, you need to go beyond the will and persistence of ordinary people, this will is no different from those athletes we see on TV, and the price they need to pay is the same." ”
When Gu Feng heard Zheng Xia's words, he slowly raised his head, and he actually felt that the girl in front of him was shining.
"I don't know about games, I don't know about e-sports," Zheng Xia continued, "but I've seen with my own eyes, there was once a boy who was disappointed when he faced failure, but I can remember his serious appearance and tenacious eyes even more, I can empathize, so I think e-sports is worth loving." ”
"But love can't be eaten," in the face of Zheng Xia's speech, Meng Yi's father's tone was also slightly softened, "We sent our daughter to school, not for him to play games." ”
"But isn't the purpose of going to college to give us a clear understanding of ourselves?"
"That's right," Meng Yi's father nodded, "Meng Yi's perception of himself should be to study hard and ...... in the future."
"Just like you," Zheng Xia straightened up unconsciously, with a hint of anger in his smile, "right?" ”
Meng Yi's father hesitated: "Yes." ”
"That's your cognition," Zheng Xia stood up and held Meng Yi's hand, "You have to carefully understand Meng Yi's perception of himself." ”
Zheng Xia said, motioning for Meng Yi to say something as well.
Meng Yi gently moved forward a small step, but still lowered his head: "I think I can try it, I hope you can understand me." ”
Meng Yi's parents seemed to be stunned by Meng Yi's weak request, because they felt that Meng Yi should not dare to say such a thing, since he was a child, Meng Yi did not say a word to himself.
"I want to play e-sports...... Meng Yi lowered his head, tears rolling in his eyes, "I hope you can support me." ”
"Alas......" Meng Yi's father sighed, but this sigh was not like disappointment, "Support is impossible." ”
"Dad......" Meng Yi's tone was a little eager.
"I understand what your dad meant," said the mother next to him, "and he needs a guarantee." ”
"Guaranteed?" Meng Yi was puzzled.
"Yes, we need you to give us a guarantee, if we can't win the championship and don't have results, we will come back and study obediently immediately."
"This ......" Meng Yi obviously can't guarantee this kind of request.
"Okay."
As soon as these words came out, the eyes of everyone present turned to Gu Feng, who had been silent for a long time
He responded, and finally stood up and stood with Zheng Xia: "I promise you, Meng Yi will definitely win the championship." ”
"Gu Feng ......" Meng Yi wanted to stop Gu Feng's response for no reason.
However, Gu Feng ignored her: "I can promise you for Meng Yi." ”
"You...... How can you say yes for her? Meng Yi's mother said suspiciously, "I still want Meng Yi to agree in person." ”
"Then promise your parents," the corners of Gu Feng's mouth rose slightly, looked at Meng Yi who looked worried, and comforted softly, "Don't worry." ”
Meng Yi took a step forward slightly, and then bowed lightly to his parents: "I promise, if I can't win the championship, I won't have any complaints, and I will come back and study hard." ”
Meng Yi's parents looked at the firm and slightly humble appearance in front of them, and finally relented and agreed to Meng Yi's request.
The moment the three of them stepped out of the house, all their emotions were finally released.
"Ahhh ”
"Hahaha, it's really powerful," Gu Feng said with a smile, "If it weren't for you, I guess the outcome of this matter would be different." ”
Zheng Xia turned his head and pretended to be mysterious: "It's not all my credit, you are also very important." ”
"Why? I really couldn't say a word at the time. ”
"Because ......" Zheng Xia slowly let go of Meng Yi in his arms, "Because I saw your lost expression, I couldn't help but want to help you refute, you are not as wastewood as they say." ”
After Zheng Xia finished speaking, his cheeks gradually reddened, and Meng Yi on the side was obviously impressed by Zheng Xia's speech, and his eyes were full of admiration.
"Is this a confession? It's a confession! Senior Sister Zheng Xia is really amazing! Meng Yi sighed secretly in his heart.
However, Gu Feng did not respond to Meng Yi's words.
"Anyway, thank you, if you continue like this, the HG team will be able to train in peace."
"Huh?" Meng Yi looked at Gu Feng and then at Zheng Xia, his heart full of doubts.
It seems that the plot should not be carried out.,It's off track.。
However, Zheng Xia was only slightly stunned, and then showed a familiar smile: "Yes, I hope so." “
