Glory [e-sports]

Chapter 36.1: The captain is so fierce~!

There was no doubt that the traffic for the Gossip Emperor’s Weibo had just reached a new peak.

It was a simple sentence, but because the photo was so powerful, the comments caused it to shoot all the way up like a rocket.

“Who is this? Who is this person who molested my husband?!”

“The tips of his ears are red! The great demon king’s ears are red!”

“Seclusion? Who are the Seclusion CP? I just went to sleep, why did the sky collapse when I woke up?”

“The little brother is wearing FTW’s team clothing, and they’re on the way to training. Who else is a member of FTW’s starting line-up who hasn’t shown his face yet?!”

“Quiet!”

“Is God Q really so good looking?!”

“I’m in love, I’m in love, that little face, that evil smile, this old lady’s young maiden heart!”

“I’m done for. Does your FTW pick your starters based on their faces? Why is everyone from the captain to the newcomer all so good looking?”

“I’m a fan of an e-sports contestant, right?! Why do they all look like idols??”

“I already thought that Baby Ning was handsome, I didn’t expect the new top-laner to be so to my taste.”

“He’s teasing God Lu, ahhhh he dares to tease God Lu!”

“Sisters, I’m alright again. This pair is a little tempting. I really want to ship it!”

“All of a sudden, I feel a little heartache for Brother Cai.”

“Heartache +1.”

“Heartache +?…”

“Heartache for the Preserved Vegetables sisters, their house is collapsing right in front of their eyes!”

“Haha, what collapsing? For better or worse, my God Bai is considered pretty and handsome in the e-sports circle, yet now that he’s fallen to FTW, he’s really being compared to vegetables.”

“Brother Cai is the real hammer…”

“Brother Cai is stable.”

Bai Cai’s mouth twitched when he skimmed through these posts. What was wrong with these girls? Did they actually know who was giving them happiness every day!

It was fine if they didn’t praise him, but they even tried to bury him!

Ah….

The Gossip Emperor wanted to delete his account every day.

Wei Xiao was also looking through Weibo. He frowned after he saw it, “Old Bai, what are you doing!”

Bai Cai didn’t want to pay attention to him and played dead.

Wei Xiao wouldn’t let him off just like that, “I already said that the Seclusion CP is an unlucky name, why would you give it the stamp of approval? I wanted to stimulate the masses to brainstorm and come up with the perfect CP name!”

Bai Cai lay on his back on the sofa. He was already a yellowed, white cabbage that had been tossed onto the ground.

Regarding the Seclusion CP, Bai Cai hadn’t explained much, but the comments were more than enough to make up for it.

“Why is it the Seclusion CP?”

“Because it’s Close and Quiet?”

“I think it’s because they hammer the other side into seclusion.”

“Those who abuse themselves with the great demon king’s great wall of CPs will all go into seclusion?”

“They’re all fine, they all work, there’s no problem with it. As long as you don’t send a knife and have me go into seclusion!”

Wei Xiao was still unhappy, “Sigh, none of the CP names are satisfying. Is coming up with a CP name such a troublesome thing?”

Bai Cai closed his eyes, “……” I’m in the middle of seclusion. Do not disturb.

Wei Xiao let out a long sigh, “We can’t even find the right CP name. Is it not suitable for me and the team captain to engage in a CP?”

Bai Cai: “……”

You two are indeed not suitable for CPs. You two are f*cking suited for becoming a couple!

Forget it, forget it, there was no need to rush up for self-abuse. Brother Cai meditated quietly.

Seeing that Bai Cai was ignoring him, Wei Xiao continued looking through his cell phone and was struck by inspiration.

That’s right…

The thing that really flipped Weibo upside down was what Wei Xiao did next.

The Gossip Emperor’s Weibo post made the ‘pot’ boil, but Quiet made the ‘pot’ explode!

Wei Xiao sent out a post, and the content was: “The captain is so fierce~!”

The photo that came with it had Close holding the front of his clothing, their gazes locked together.

Bai Cai had taken the photo. As the veteran Gossip Emperor, any photo he took casually could still convey that kind of feeling.

Close’s long fingers were grasping Quiet’s dark team uniform, the pale white and black forming a very strong visual impact. Both of them were in profile, one with hooded eyes, and one looking surprised. An invisible layer of tension painted the entire photo, as though in the next moment, the two of them would…

“Kiss, kiss, kiss!”

“Where’s the head-pressing team? These two people are in urgent need of support!”

“Oh my mother, God Lu is all alpha!”

“Is this the follow-up? Is this the part where Little Q gets the tables turned on him after teasing the great demon king?”

“Wait a minute… who sent out this Weibo post?”

“Quiet himself!”

“God Q is so… wild?”

“Think about the live broadcast two days ago…”

“Not only is he making waves, he’s basically making shock waves!”

Wei Xiao didn’t look at his cell phone after sending out the message, because they’d boarded the plane ahead of time.

The Glory competition committee arranged for economy class tickets, but FTW upgraded the whole team to business class, ensuring that everyone could sleep comfortably during the five hour trip.

The boarding passes were all grouped together. The seat in Wei Xiao’s hands was near Bai Cai, but he didn’t want to be next to Brother Cai.

Brother Cai had a little problem that was neither small nor big; he couldn’t sleep on a plane no matter how long or short the flight was.

He couldn’t sleep, but he would still feel sleepy. In order to make himself a little more comfortable while reading books, he would continuously drink coffee.

If he drank too much, he would have to run to the toilet. Back and forth, back and forth…

Wei Xiao, who could fall asleep as soon as he got on the plane, might end up irritated to death by him!

Wei Xiao leaned in close to Lu Feng, “Captain!”

Lu Feng: “Hm?”

He leaned away from him slightly out of fear that he would jump up next to his ear again.

Wei Xiao asked him, “Do you still have things to do after boarding?”

In the minivan, Lu Feng and the assistant had been busy for a long time. Wei Xiao couldn’t be sure if he would still be busy for the five hours on the plane.

Lu Feng certainly wouldn’t be finished with the things that needed to be done, but…

Lu Feng: “Yes?”

Wei Xiao blinked his eyes, “If you’re not busy, can I sit next to you?”

The end of the sentence was a little drawn out and very much infused with a spoiled tone.

Lu Feng’s ears trembled, “……”

Wei Xiao: “Can I!”

Lu Feng: “… Alright.”

Wei Xiao’s smile bloomed, “’Kay!”

Lu Feng couldn’t help but ask him, “Why did you think of sitting next to me.”

Although Wei Xiao was disdaining Brother Cai, it wasn’t something he would say out loud. He answered vaguely, “Nothing, really.”

Lu Feng looked at him.

Wei Xiao instantly came up with a reason, “I sleep soundly around you!”

Lu Feng: “…………”

Bai Cai, who was behind them, stumbled and almost fell to his knees.

He knew what Wei Xiao was thinking. Wasn’t he just disdaining him for disturbing his sleep?

Laozi wouldn’t bite you if you told the damn truth. Did you have to be so, so…

F*ck, there was still a chance to live if the heavens were messing with you, but if you made trouble for yourself, there was really no saving yourself.

Wei Xiaoxiao, you’re on your own!

So, Wei Xiao ended up seated by Lu Feng.

In fact, it wasn’t a big deal to sit next to each other. International flights were all on big planes, and the seats in business class were very spacious. There wouldn’t be a situation where heads ended up bumping together.

Wei Xiao was really very sleepy. After he separated from Lu Feng last night, he’d gone on to play ranked games on his own and had only gone to sleep at 4AM.

He’d only gotten 30 or 40 minutes of sleep in the minivan, and it was not enough at all.

After the plane took off, he instantly fell asleep without even taking a sip of his lemonade.

Lu Feng looked at Wei Xiao, and the corner of his lips curved slightly: He was really sleeping soundly.

It was unknown if it was because he was tired or something else, but Lu Feng, who normally couldn’t sleep on planes, actually started to also feel sleepy.

Lu Feng rubbed his forehead, switched off his computer, turned his head, and fell asleep.

Bai Cai was really unable to sleep. He wouldn’t be able to sleep even if he was beaten to death and had to rely on coffee to survive, drinking one cup after another.

As a result, he became addicted to going to the toilet…

Halfway through the trip, Bai Cai had just come out of the toilet when he happened to pass by Wei Xiao’s and Lu Feng’s seats.

His hands itched when he saw the scene, and he almost took out his cell phone to take a photo right then and there.

In the wide seats, Wei Xiao lay on his side facing Lu Feng, his long legs curled up, and his hair covering his forehead. His eyes that were full of arrogance at normal times were closed, and he looked very cute and well-behaved when he was quiet.

Lu Feng was lying on his back beside him. The ‘hands of god’ that fans praised all the way to the heavens were placed on his belly, and his coat was draped casually over his legs. His collar was slightly open, exposing half of his collarbone due to the way his head was tilted, and the long, slender neck led up to his relaxed, sleeping face.

His head was leaning to the side, towards Wei Xiao.

It was two people who weren’t leaning that close to each other, yet the scene inexplicably gave off a sense of mutual dependence.

Bai Cai: “……”

Unfortunately, the Seclusion girls wouldn’t be able to see this classic scene.

Wei Xiao slept very contentedly and was fully refreshed after he got off the plane.

After they picked up their luggage and boarded the minivan, Wei Xiao opened up Weibo again.

He sucked in a breath of surprise as soon as it opened up.

Everyone looked at him.

Wei Xiao looked at it carefully, then asked Ning Zhehan, “How many fans do you have on Weibo?”

Ning Zhehan had started to become famous even at the training camp, and he went through another round of publicity after joining FTW. Little Ning looked at his fan count very seriously and said, “Around 1.5 million.”

Wei Xiao sighed, “I’m at 2 million.”

How many days had it been since the account was created?

FTW hadn’t even publicized it seriously and hadn’t posted any official marketing posters. This fan count…

Xiang Liu, as the club manager, was also surprised, “It was less than a million when I checked yesterday.”

The operations department of the club would pay attention to the team’s Weibo accounts. After all, it was a matter of some importance.

Wei Xiao shook his head, “It’s still rising. It seems like it’ll surpass Bai Cai by evening.”

Bai Cai’s main account only had around 2.5 million fans. It was quite a far cry from the Gossip Emperor’s 7 million fans.

Little Ning was very supportive and flattering, “Brother Xiao, you’re too amazing!”

Wei Xiao’s tail had already been cocked up in pride, and now, he became even prouder. Yet his voice was modest as he said, “It’s all thanks to the CP fans.”

Little Ning paused. Instinct told him that the situation wasn’t good.

Sure enough, Wei Xiao’s next sentence was all about his ‘lousy idea’, “Don’t worry, we can also form a CP. Your fan count will instantly soar up to the heavens!”

Ning Zhehan: “!!!”
