5 Chapter 5

"How's it going?"

As soon as Gu Yuan returned to the training room, Huang Heran came over.

"He's not going to miss an appointment."

Gu Yuan looked at Yan Shusheng: "And Night said that he adapts to our wild core playing style and rhythm, and there is no need for him to adjust his tactics." โ€

"Huh."

Yan Shusheng couldn't help but be surprised: "He is so strong as an assassin and an output-type mid-laner, why did he suddenly want to play with tool man." It's not good to think so, but he won't suddenly choose what he wants to play when he is BP. โ€

BP stands for Ban & Pick Forbidden Heroes.

"No, it won't."

Gu Yuan said: "I think it should be physical reasons, but don't mention it in front of him." I've told him to go back and tell XY to try out the other midlaners. โ€

Huang Heran clapped his hands: "No problem." This transfer period, SEA has directly become the biggest winner, we will be the Galaxy Fleet next year, and look at the group of โ–กโ–ก cubs in DCK (South Korea) to be arrogant. โ€

The flush on his face hadn't completely gone down, and Lu Yang was a little aggrieved: "G, what the am I ...... Eating a gun truck will really be washed away by his wife's powder. โ€

"That's right."

Gu Yuan turned to Lu Yang: "Don't judge Night's appearance in the future." โ€

Lu Yang: "...... Huh. โ€

Jiang Yiwen patted Lu Yang's shoulder: "Think about the benefits." The two popular kings of DPL directly gathered at SEA, and we will be the first traffic team of DPL in the future, covering 70% of DPL's fans, and we are not afraid of scolding other teams. โ€

Lu Yang: "...... I thank you. โ€

Gu Yuan: "Manager Huang." โ€

Huang Heran: "Yes." โ€

Gu Yuan's mind suddenly appeared when he asked, "Is there a problem within your team?" Su Zhiye's eyes flashed with disgust, and he was silent for a long time, but he still said, "Can you come out for a while, I have something to say to you." โ€

Huang Heran sighed.

Walking out of the training room, Gu Yuan spoke: "Two days will be All-Star Weekend, and Night needs to play the main game, but he will attend with the players of XY." It's been confirmed that he's going to transfer and XY management knows about it, so you look after him a little bit. โ€

After a pause, he added, "There are some problems inside XY. โ€

Huang Heran was taken aback.

"Understood."

He immediately said: "I'll keep an eye on it, Night will be our cub in the future, and we can't let others bully him." โ€

Gu Yuan was a little speechless about Huang Heran recognizing them as "cubs" every day, but he did protect the calves, so let him say it.

"Oh, that's right."

Huang Heran said again, but this time his tone was a few degrees lower: "Tomorrow is Xie Shaochuan's death day for two months, do you want everyone to go and see it together." โ€

"I'll ask them."

Gu Yuan said: "If you're busy, I'll accompany Shi Xing." โ€

-

Although it was not explicitly stated, most fans guessed that SEA's current midlaner Serein was about to retire.

Su Zhiye was watching the game of last year's semi-finals SEA and familiarized himself with the tactics and playing style of the new team in advance.

Most of the barrage on the screen is related to Shen Shixing, half of them scolded him for acting, and the other half begged him not to go.

Fans in the e-sports circle are all split personalities, and this kind of barrage is normal for especially popular players.

In the words of the ear commentary, a discordant high voice suddenly burst out-

"Even though there's heating in the house, you can't just wear a shirt, my brother!!"

Cheng Yansheng was cooking, and when he suddenly turned around, he saw that Su Zhiye was only wearing the thin satin shirt he wore when he came to his house on the first day.

He immediately rolled up his sleeves, rushed into the room, and took out Su Zhiye's favorite fox fur shawl, and wrapped it tightly around the latter.

"What are you doing?"

Su Zhiye smiled: "I'm not cold." โ€

"Not a cold hammer."

Cheng Yansheng muttered while moving the warm fan over: "You just rely on your youth to continue to spoil your body, all the problems will come out when you get old." โ€

Chattering about Su Zhiye is one of Cheng Yansheng's daily must-do things, Su Zheye can be annoyed to death, and his ears are about to be ground out of cocoons when he listens day after day, so the remarks given to him by WeChat are also old mothers.

Even this fox fur coat was bought by Cheng Yansheng for him, the air conditioning in the XY training room in spring and summer is always turned on very well, or the kind of central air conditioner that blows from the top of the head, Su Zhiye is not in good health, Cheng Yansheng is afraid that the cold on his shoulders will affect his body and training, so he bought a few shawls of artificial fox fur.

Fox Qiu is okay, it seems that Su Zhiye likes it very much, but Su Zhiye never listens to the words, Cheng Yansheng also knows this, but he can't help it when he sees his weak and sick beauty.

In the past, after chattering for a while, Cheng Yansheng would be interrupted by Su Zhiye and scolded a few words, who knew that he muttered for a long time today, and he was almost exhausted and didn't listen to Su Zhiye's voice.

Cheng Yansheng's eyes lifted from the fan blades, and he saw Su Zhiye looking at him with a smile in his eyes.

The boy's pupils are very light, and when he looks at a person quietly, he suddenly seems to be able to see the reflection from the bottom of his eyes, the tails of his eyes are slightly raised, adding a bit of touching, and the fox fluff makes the face more and more small and delicate, as if the reincarnation of Daji, who is so beautiful that it has brought disaster to the country and the people.

Cheng Yansheng could clearly feel that his heart was skipping a beat, so he hurriedly spoke, and his tone pretended to be serious: "Su Zhiye, don't tempt me, I'm a straight man who can't be straighter, although you are beautiful, I only like girls." โ€

Su Zhiye: "Stupid. โ€

He was laughing because he was thinking about Cheng Yansheng's words: "When you get old, all the problems come out." โ€

I'm still old, and after two years, everyone else will be gone.

But...... In his previous life, he never took other people's advice to heart, because of family factors, he always felt that other people's kindness to him was to seek benefits from him, and he would not just care about him as a person.

Now that I think about it, maybe it's not all like that, but it's still a good experience to listen to the care of friends once in a while.

"That's comfortable."

Cheng Yansheng said: "You still scold me, don't smile at me, I'm afraid I won't be able to withstand the temptation." โ€

Su Zhiye: "Stupid. โ€

Cheng Yansheng nodded with satisfaction.

He turned up the heater to the highest setting, and then sat back next to Su Zhiye: "Are you watching the SEA game?" โ€

Su Zhiye: "Hmm. โ€

"Do you study Gu Yuan's style of play, or study Gu Yuan's ......-this person?"

Cheng Yansheng swept the laptop in Su Zhiye's hand, with a browser open on it, and there were only two words in the search box: Gu Yuan.

His tone suddenly changed, and his eyes stared at Su Zhiye like a torch.

Su Zhiye didn't look up, and said casually: "It's all there." โ€

Cheng Yansheng: "? โ€

Cheng Yansheng: "No, are you really interested in Gu Yuan?" โ€

He leaned over and stared at Su Zhiye's eyes: "I just said in the morning that you don't care if he likes you or not, and now I'm interested in others." Love at first sight, you?? โ€

It's not love at first sight.

Presumably...... The mood of a hunter who finds the perfect prey.

Su Zhiye raised his hand, lightly brushed his hair behind his ears, and changed the topic: "What do you eat at night?" โ€

Cheng Yansheng glanced at him dissatisfied, and then said, "I boiled porridge for you and fried three dishes, okay?" โ€

Su Zhiye smiled: "Yes, thank you boss." โ€

Cheng Yansheng asked: "Do you want to go back to the XY base after eating?" I'll send you. โ€

Su Zhiye did not hesitate: "Don't go back." โ€

Cheng Yansheng: "Huh? โ€

Su Zhiye looked at him: "I want to give you accommodation fees?" โ€

"No, no, no."

Cheng Yansheng said: "Aren't you an all-star the day after tomorrow, you are not allowed to go with the team?" โ€

Su Zhiye was slightly stunned, and then the memory slowly came to mind.

Every year, the first weekend after the end of the World Championship is the DPL All-Star, which is not only the year-end awards ceremony, but also has star players from different teams competing on the same stage or solo, which is one of the most anticipated feasts for fans in the esports circle.

The most important All-Star Game is the fan vote for a total of ten players from the two teams, and the two most popular votes are the captains of the two teams, and the captains of the two teams can only play the heroes voted by the fans.

"I ......"

Su Zhiye was silent for two seconds: "Is it designated Snow Girl?" โ€

"The vote will not close until noon tomorrow, but do you still need to ask, you fans must want to see you play Snow Girl, and watch the Chief Gu play Quantum Killer-"

Cheng Yansheng's words came to an abrupt end.

He and Su Zhiye looked at each other quietly for a moment, but they still didn't hold back the smile on their faces: "Hahahahaha, I just said that it was interesting to Chief Gu, and I will fight against others the day after tomorrow." How did you feel about the interview? โ€

Su Zhiye: ". โ€

Cheng Yansheng said again: "But after all, it's an entertainment competition, you work hard against the line, invade Gu Yuan's wild area and catch him, maybe Chief Gu will like you." Love and kill each other. โ€

Su Zhiye: "Stupid. โ€

Laughing enough, Cheng Yansheng asked, "Then will you go back to the XY base after eating?" โ€

Su Zhiye shook his head.

Cheng Yansheng touched his nose: "Okay, then I'll send you directly to the All-Star when the time comes." You wait at the door for XY others to come in together, otherwise the marketing account will be scribbled again. โ€

Su Zhiye: "Hmm. โ€

There was silence between the two for a few minutes, and Su Zhiye suddenly showed a bright smile and said, "Does Brother Yansheng have anything else to do after eating?" โ€

As soon as he changed his name, Cheng Yansheng felt that something was wrong, and raised his head on the ground, his eyes vigilant: "What are you going to do?" โ€

Su Zhiye's tone remained unchanged: "My bottle of Toussaint perfume is almost running out, accompany me to buy a bottle." โ€

This is perfectly normal.

But Cheng Yansheng still felt that something was wrong, thought seriously for a moment, and suddenly realized: "Aren't you too lazy to move, why do you have to run out at night?" Is this perfume so important? โ€

"You know what?"

Su Zhiye adjusted to a more comfortable sitting position, and shrunk his pointed chin into the fox fur: "When you teach a man to recognize a kind of floral fragrance, he will think of you every time he smells that floral scent. โ€

Cheng Yansheng's brain buffered for a long time before he reacted: "It seems that yes, Diptyque rarely marks flower names on perfume names, and some flower names are quite niche." โ€

Su Zhiye said "um".

Cheng Yansheng was curious: "What kind of floral fragrance is Toussaint?" โ€

Su Zhiye had already continued to watch the SEA game, and smiled lightly when he heard this: "Check it yourself, I don't want to teach you." โ€

-

Since the release of "Dawn and Twilight" in 2017 and the official hosting of the first World Championship in 2018, S6 has just ended, and it has been a perfect curtain call for six seasons.

Over the past six years, DTW has grown rapidly, with more than 300 million players worldwide, forming a unique culture and event that has taken esports to a new level and will be added to the Olympic program in 2024.

It's just a pity that the Chinese division has not won its own championship trophy in six years, although the Olympics have not yet been held, no fans think that the Chinese team can win the South Korean division with four championships in six years.

- Of course, only Su Zhiye knew that it was indeed the South Korean flag flying in the Olympic Games, and it was ruled by South Korea for seven years, and it was not until the S8 season that the World Finals finally ended up being the decisive battle of the Chinese team.

Although it wasn't his team that won.

"Break the night, fold the night."

Su Zhi came back to his senses at night and turned his face sideways.

"What do you want to be so focused, it's here."

Cheng Yansheng raised his hand, shook it in front of his eyes, and then leaned over: "Why do you have such long eyelashes." โ€

Su Zhiye knocked off his hand: "Why are you so wide." โ€

"Why, I'm praising you."

Cheng Yansheng took out a cigarette and a lighter and stuffed them into his pocket: "I didn't expect it to be blocked at all today, XY estimates that it will take a while, you wait in the car?" โ€

"Nope."

Su Zhiye said: "I'll wait at the door, and smoke a cigarette by the way." โ€

This is the official entrance to the All-Star venue, with only staff and club players accessing it, ensuring privacy and security.

Su Zhiye likes to smoke fine cigarettes, because of the low nicotine content, he knows very well that he has a smoking addiction, and he also knows that his body is not good anywhere, so he changes to fine cigarettes to relieve his smoking addiction, and he can consume less nicotine.

"Cold?"

Cheng Yansheng's mother's attribute is guilty again: "Do you want to go in first, or I'll get you a coat?" โ€

One of the parts of the All-Star Feast is the award ceremony, and on the whole, it is more interesting to watch and move than to compete, so the club players are required to wear suits.

Although Su Zheye wore a fox fur-edged down jacket outside, Cheng Yansheng looked at his cold white knuckles with a fine cigarette and chilled him for him.

"Nope."

Su Zhiye said: "One is not enough. โ€

Cheng Yansheng: "? โ€

Cheng Yansheng was heartbroken: "You already have a bad stomach, and you still pump so hard every day, you have to make up a good organ in your stomach, right?" โ€

Su Zhiye: ". โ€

Before he could speak, a surprise voice suddenly came from behind him: "Night! โ€

Su Zhi turned around at night and saw an unfamiliar face.

Cheng Yansheng also looked over: "Are you?" โ€

Lai Dao: "Hello, let me introduce myself, my name is Kim Geun Suk, I am the host of the DCK division, and I am also the special guest reporter of this DPL All-Star. โ€

DCK stands for DTW Champions Korea, the Korean division of "Dawn and Dusk", which has won the world championship for three consecutive years and is recognized as the first division of DTW.

Su Zhiye nodded lightly.

Kim Geun Suk with a bright smile: "I have been looking up to the name Night for a long time, I am your fan, I don't know if you can sign it for me?" โ€

Before Su Zhiye could speak, Cheng Yansheng took out a card from his pocket: "Night signed it by himself in the morning, give it." โ€

Kim Geun Suk was stunned for a moment, then took it and laughed dryly: "Haha thank you, you are from Night...... Well, assistant? โ€

"So to speak."

Cheng Yansheng spoke politely and smiled: "I didn't expect you to speak Chinese so well." We have staff to host special journalists, so you can go in and ask them to show you the way. โ€

"There's no hurry."

Kim Geun Suk still had a kind smile on his face: "My assistant has already gone in to find someone, in fact, I have another task this time, which is to help several clubs in our DCK bring a message." โ€

He lowered his voice: "There is no one else here either. Night, would you like to go to RCG? โ€

In the S6 World Championship, XY fell to RCG in the semifinals.

But obviously, it's not a problem in the middle lane, and even Su Zhiye exploded three RCG mid-laner lines, two single kills on the line, and the one that XY won reached 10/0/2, 38% damage percentage, and 4k counterpoint economic poor terrifying data.

This is rare in the world finals or even semi-finals.

Although they did not win against the No. 1 seed in the Korean region in the S6 Finals, as the runner-up, RCG's strength should not be underestimated, especially with the retirement of the mid laner, they have strengthened the mid lane......

Su Zhiye suddenly remembered that S7, that is, the next World Championship, RCG also reached the finals, and the shortcomings and mistakes in the tiebreaker also came from the middle lane.

And those fatal mistakes will never be made by yourself.

This also means that if you join the RCG yourself, this team will be the favorite to win the championship next year.

"I'm sorry."

Su Zhiye did not hesitate: "Don't think about it." โ€

"Really, don't you think about it?"

Kim Geun Suk continued: "I know that XY is giving you a contract with a maximum salary, but RCG is one of the biggest chaebols in South Korea, and you should have heard about them forming a galaxy fleet this year. Double the salary, guarantee the starting contract, benefits and benefits, and the RCG manager will soon be looking for you on instagram......"

Su Zhiye interrupted him and said lightly: "No, thank you." โ€

โ€œNightใ€‚โ€

Kim Geun-seok still had a polite and friendly smile on his face, but what he said was: "If you and SEA had a top Korean player in the World Championship last year, the finals would not have seen Chinese." It's been six years, why don't you believe it, the all-Chinese class can't win the championship. โ€

Su Zhiye's expression instantly turned cold: "Before I get angry, disappear from front of me immediately." โ€

"Don't worry."

Kim Geun Suk smiled: "If you don't feel familiar with your life or are embarrassed to come to DCK, I can tell you a piece of news, FEL has sent a trial invitation to Ruins, the same maximum salary and starting contract, I don't believe he won't come." โ€

FEL is DCK's biggest giant team and a triple champion of the World Finals.

And Ruins is Gu Yuan's id.

Cheng Yansheng's eyes couldn't help but widen.

"You should be able to see Gu Shen in DCK soon, and I believe that Night is too, after all, you are all smart people."

He smiled and said: "Because before the honor of the world champion, it is simply not worth mentioning to insist on this belief of the all-Chinese class." โ€

Su Zhiye closed his eyes, but he still couldn't hold back: "...... Get lost. โ€

"I'll get out."

Kim Geun Suk suddenly changed his complexion, from being arrogant to flattering and apologetic: "Night don't be angry if you don't want to be interviewed, I still wish you better results for the DPL with the team next year!" โ€

He added the words "for DPL", finished speaking, turned his gaze to Su Zhiye, and said in the same surprised tone: "Hello Ruins, I have admired the name for a long time!" โ€

Cheng Yansheng's eyes were already wide-open, and his eyes widened.

With a soft "click", Su Zhiye bit the popping bead in the cigarette holder.

The cold mint smell poured into his lips and teeth, and Su Zhiye took a deep breath of cigarette, and turned his face as he exhaled slowly.

In the smoke, he met a pair of dark, calm eyes.

A thought suddenly popped into Su Zhiye's mind-

After returning from rebirth, the two meetings with Gu Yuan were really terrible.

The two looked at each other quietly for a few seconds, it was Gu Yuan who opened his mouth first, he bowed slightly towards Su Zhiye, and said politely: "Hello Night." โ€

However, he turned to Kim Geun Suk: "Are you?" โ€

Su Zhiye narrowed his eyes.

"Ahh

Kim Geun Suk didn't seem to expect Gu Yuan to take the initiative to greet Su Zheye first, and was stunned for a moment before saying, "I'm a special reporter from DCK, my name is Kim Geun Suk." โ€

Gu Yuan just said a very flat "um", and then still looked at Su Zhiye: "Night, do you want to go in together?" โ€

I don't know why, Gu Yuan's act of ignoring the stupid reporter and greeting himself first was like a pure and unstained snow out of thin air, and his anger from being provoked was drenched in an instant.

It's as if,

In the next second, Su Zhiye bent his eyes, and the coldness in his eyes disappeared in an instant: "Okay, Sir Gu." โ€

Then he looked at Kim Geun Suk: "Didn't you say you want to get out, why don't you get out." โ€

Kim Geun Suk was stunned.

In front of Gu Yuan, how could Su Zhiye still speak disrespectfully, which was ...... his original plan How different.

As if sensing the subtle change in his expression, Su Zhiye raised his hand and put his arm on Gu Yuan's shoulder: "I told you that I have a good relationship with SEA, you have to let me slander them in the interview, what does it mean to step on SEA to praise XY?" โ€

His pupils were light and pale in color, his head was slightly tilted, and a few strands of long hair were hooked to the side of his face, which seemed to be the most simple question.

Kim Geun Suk was even more confused.

Sure enough, Gu Yuan's eyebrows frowned slightly: "Your guest is a special reporter from DCK, but I think our division doesn't want to see the relationship between the two teams being provoked, since this position is not competent, maybe we can report it and let your division send someone else next time." โ€

"No, it's not."

Kim Geun Suk didn't understand what was going on at all, obviously he was slandering Su Zhiye, why did he become the target of everyone now.

Cheng Yansheng also "snorted": "I testify, you just want to make Night look down on SEA in the interview, and he will scold people if he doesn't agree to you." โ€

Kim Keun Suk: "??? โ€

When did he curse.

Exercise.

Seeing that the other people in SEA were walking this way not far away, Kim Geun Suk didn't want to make a big deal out of it, so he could only hurriedly say, "I'm sorry Night, I'm sorry Ruins, I'm just ...... Uh, I wanted to be a little hot, so I made a topic, but I didn't think it through, I'm really sorry. โ€

Gu Yuan looked at Su Zhiye and motioned for him to accept this apology.

Su Zhiye didn't want to see this fool anymore, so he moved his arm away from Gu Yuan's shoulder and waved his hand: "Get out." โ€

Kim Geun Suk didn't dare to reply at all, so he hurried into the venue after answering.

The air fell silent again.

In the middle of the night, Su Zhiye suddenly snorted.

"Thank you."

He flipped his wrist and said to Gu Yuan, "Then Chief Gu will see you later." โ€

Then he casually threw half of the cigarette on the ground and walked directly into the venue.

Cheng Yansheng glanced at Gu Yuan, and then hurriedly followed Su Zhiye's footsteps.

Gu Yuan was still standing in place.

After quietly looking at the direction of the venue for a while, Gu Yuan squatted down, picked up the half of the cigarette, and threw it into the trash can on the side.

He knew that Su Zhiye's thanks were his own cooperation just now.

However, the boy's eyelids drooped slightly when he said that, and the smile of the spring breeze was not there, revealing the coldness in his bones.

Obviously it was just simple words, but they always gave people the illusion of provocation and aggression when they came out of his mouth.

Or maybe it's not a delusion.

When you put your arm on your shoulder, you can still smell the smell of perfume mixed with the smoke on the boy's body.

It is a kind of floral fragrance that has never been smelled, like cold and arrogant, but with mysterious charm and enchantment, like sweet and gentle, but full of loneliness and loneliness.

It's exactly the same as the feeling of boys, complex, multifaceted, and unpredictable.

For so many years, he still had never seen through Su Zhiye.

Gu Yuan gently stroked the Buddha beads on his wrist, and walked into the venue with a flat face.
