After he heard the sound of footsteps leaving, Wei Xiao came out of the washroom compartment.
There was nobody at the sink area. Wei Xiao looked at himself in the mirror.
His eyes were red, and he looked like he wanted to cry, like a little dog that nobody wanted.
“Shit.”
Wei Xiao turned on the tap. After washing his hands, he cupped a handful of water and splashed his face.
He cooled his eyes and also cooled down his brain.
He was too dependent on Close.
After his grandma’s death, he’d had nobody to rely on. He’d been taken by surprise when he met the captain; how could he resist?
The captain was really nice.
Especially, especially nice.
Wei Xiao sighed and suppressed this illogical fear.
What was he thinking?
The captain was only 21 years old. Li Heran was already 23. It wasn’t the same!
There were two years of difference!
Two years…
Wei Xiao once again felt that the difference was a little small.
That wasn’t right!
He remembered that the captain’s birthday was in December, so now he was just counting by years. If he rounded down, then the captain was only 20 years old.
20 meant that he was only one year older than he was. He was currently alive and kicking, and the captain could still fight for another 500 years!
At this moment, Wei Xiao could be regarded as having found some comfort.
He couldn’t bear for anything to happen to Lu Feng.
He cherished everyone who was good to him in his life.
He’d been in the toilet for a long time. When he went back to his seat, Lu Feng looked at him, “Not feeling well?”
Wei Xiao thought to himself, the captain was really elegant and gentle. He was so circumspect when asking him if he had diarrhea.
Wei Xiao: “I didn’t have diarrhea.”
Lu Feng was relieved, “Why did it take so long?”
Wei Xiao leaned in close to him and said, “I ran into Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran having a fight.”
Yuan Ze was still beside the two of them. The Old Bandit had his ears perked up vertically and felt like he’d found a breakthrough point in the conversation, “The two of them quarrel every day. In the past, when they were in FTW, they would scold each other over international calls.”
Wei Xiao was curious, “Captain Li appears to be very good tempered.” And he seemed to indulge Kim Sung-hyun very much.

Yuan Ze: “………………”
In order to talk to Yuan Ze, Wei Xiao’s entire person was pasted onto Lu Feng’s body.
Lu Feng held down his waist and said, “Captain Yuan needs to go play in a moment. Don’t disturb him.”
The implication beneath the words was that this topic could end here.
Wei Xiao was about to say something else, but he suddenly stopped.
––The captain’s hand was really hot.
Wei Xiao’s brain buzzed as he sat up straight.
Lu Feng also didn’t dare to touch him further. He removed his hand as soon as he sat up properly.
Old Dog Yuan didn’t notice anything and was still trying to stir up discord, “You didn’t even come to L&P. How could you know that I wouldn’t treat you well?”
Wei Xiao’s heart felt hot, and he was just about to turn around to aggravate him.
Lu Feng spoke slowly and steadily, “I was also very good to him before he joined FTW.”
Yuan Ze: “……………………”
If Wei Xiao had a tail, it would be pointing up to the sky right now. “Did you hear that? Did you hear that? Did you hear that, Captain Yuan!”
Captain Yuan had indeed heard it. He’d heard the foolish sound of his own foot kicking an iron plate.
Old G with his half-assed Chinese heard this and came to his captain’s rescue in confusion, “Don’t look at how my captain is smiling like a fox. In fact, his stomach is full of bad water!”
The FTW crowd whose Chinese was CET 10 level, “… Pfft!”
Old G’s expression was confused as he said in English, “Did I say it wrong? Isn’t that a phrase used to describe the captain’s intelligence? What are they laughing at?”
Not only had Yuan Ze kicked an iron plate, he’d even f*cking lifted up a stone and smashed it on his own foot!
Wei Xiao’s English was good, and he replied, “Indeed, indeed, it’s used to describe how smart your captain is. He’s really smart. Old G, keep going, praise him 30 times a day, and your captain will love you for 10,000 years.”
Old G: “………”
His Chinese wasn’t good, but he wasn’t stupid. When he looked at his team captain’s bad expression, he could tell that he’d said the wrong thing, “About that…”
Yuan Ze picked up his jacket and covered Gary’s head, “Let’s go. We’re playing a match.”
Oh, it was now L&P’s turn to play.
The team that went up against L&P wanted to cry when they finally stepped off-stage.
What was going on?
Why were Marshal and Gary so fierce?!
Even if they were lovelorn, they shouldn’t bring their emotions into the game.
The team that had been hammered until they had bumps all over their heads dared to be upset but didn’t dare to voice it out loud.
After watching the games and going back to the training room, Chen Feng went over the replay as usual.
The replay session was always the most comfortable when they had won the game.
He could point out any problems directly without worrying about any mental burden the players might have, and the acceptance level for criticism was high.
Of course, there were also the ones who didn’t like reviewing the game after winning, feeling that since they’d won, then they’d done nothing wrong.
This kind of player might exist in other teams, but FTW didn’t have any.
Even Close, the leader and person in charge, respected Chen Feng. The others were naturally very obedient and well-behaved.
Wei Xiao took the replay review very seriously every time.
It was even to the point where he would find his own mistakes before Chen Feng did, and he wasn’t afraid of being disciplined. He scolded himself more fiercely than Chen Feng did.
However, he remained very quiet that night. He didn’t focus on watching himself and stared at the captain’s divine warrior instead during the entire process.
During this match, if one only looked at the final results, then the divine warrior’s performance hadn’t been the most brilliant.
Yue Wenle had the highest number of kills, and that last Quadrakill had basically sent him up to heaven.
Ning Zhehan had dealt the highest amount of DPS. Although he hadn’t taken many kills, he’d played out a lot of damage with the ice mage’s strong poke (long-range attacks).
There was no doubt that milk daddy Brother Cai had taken the highest amount of damage.
Wei Xiao had been pressured too tragically by Kim Sung-hyun during this game, and his stats didn’t look good. However, the key to victory lay in him trading his life for Kim Sung-hyun’s during that last wave, and it couldn’t be captured by a simple data panel.
There was only Close, who seemed to be a little bland during this game.
It was true that he wasn’t very eye-catching, but he’d been very important.
Wei Xiao looked at the entire game situation and saw countless details from the divine warrior.
In the early stages, he’d suppressed the devil warrior. In the middle stages, he’d suppressed Kim Sung-hyun, and at the end, if it hadn’t been for the divine warrior stalking the Kim Sung-hyun who’d switched to ghost form intending to escape, FTW would’ve been done for.
During all the important segments, the divine warrior’s figure was present, but he wasn’t as sharp as he’d been before.
He was hidden silently within the team, like a pair of eyes above the canyon, quietly making up for the gaps in the team.
––Controlling the field.
A shudder swept through Wei Xiao’s nerves.
It turned out that the great demon king’s control could be so gentle when it wasn’t used against the enemy.
He peeked at Lu Feng.
Lu Feng seemed to notice his gaze and shifted his eyes over.
Wei Xiao quickly turned his head back and stared at the screen.
He was very pleased inside, because he’d been the first to discover this secret.
After the replay review was over, they started queuing as a team of five as usual.
The tacit understanding between members of a team couldn’t be faked. It could only be tempered by playing one match after another together.
The hour hand pointed at 12 o’clock. They had just finished a game.
Lu Feng was the room master. He clicked to start queueing again.
Wei Xiao cancelled the queue.
Lu Feng looked at him, “Hm?”
Wei Xiao said, “Captain, it’s twelve. It’s time for you to rest.”
As soon as he spoke, everyone looked at him like he’d just performed magic: What? Did they hear wrong? Was this something that Wei Xiaoxiao would say?!
Lu Feng was also stunned. He asked back, “Tired?”
Wei Xiao wasn’t tired at all. He said, “It wasn’t easy for the captain to develop his biological clock. Don’t break it, go to bed early.”
Bai Cai disdained him, “I don’t know who it is who pesters the captain for solo games day and night.”
Wei Xiao glared at him, “I’m young and ignorant. You’re the one who doesn’t know when to stop.”
Bai Cai: “……”
He was the one who’d spoken too much. He deserved it!
Lu Feng could sense that: Wei Xiao was concerned about him.
His eyes curved slightly as he asked him, “Then, I’ll go to sleep?”
Wei Xiao urged him, “Go quickly, go quickly.”
Lu Feng spoke lightly, “I originally wanted to solo with you before going to sleep.”
Wei Xiao: “!”
Lu Feng smiled as he looked at him.
Wei Xiao snapped at Brother Vegetable, “What are you standing there so dazedly for? Hold me back!”
Brother Vegetable: “???”
Wei Xiao stuffed his own arm into Brother Vegetable’s hands, “What’s the use of having you around?!”
Brother Vegetable finally understood. It seemed that he wanted him to stop him?
Emmm…
Wei Xiaoxiao, you’re a male escort with many plays!
The ‘stopped’ Wei Xiao waved at Lu Feng, “Don’t tempt me. I’m afraid that I can’t hold back.”
Brother Vegetable’s hand trembled. He really wished he could strangle him: Would you die if you spoke using human language?
Lu Feng was already used to it and asked again deliberately, “So, I’m going?”
Wei Xiao was heartbroken, “Goodbye, see you later, good night!”
xiin: Lu Feng: Actually, I want you to be unable to hold back.
My life would always be shining bright if I were to see such a Wei Xiaoxiao acting so cutely every day. >< This honestly makes me admire Captain Lu’s ability to hold back even more! How can he restrain himself in front of such adorableness!!
Lowkey want to kick away Brother Vegetable and take his place, so I can watch all this from a front row seat xP (also sjvdjsk Yuan Ze rly smashed his own foot with that huh 💀💀 And Gary remains as the eternal pig teammate in arguments roflmao xD)
Thanks for the chapter! 🙂
+1 to kick away Brother Vegetable and take his place 😆
“ He cherished everyone who was good to him in his life.” ah, and that’s why close thinks he’s not special to Wei Xiao any more than the other teammates.
poor xiao wei he’s so heartbroken😂😂😂😂…but who’s more miserable wei xiao or brother vegetable 😂😂😂
So breakfast in the morning of next part will be Wei Xiao dumping celery onto Lu Feng’s bowl?
thanks for the chapter!!
this novel brightens my day soo much, WX is such a cutie 😀
poor brother Cai, fated to be a third wheel [lights a candle]
Awww our baby is growing up. Can’t wait to see this version of him. I really enjoyed this chapter. Thank you
Thx for the ch xDDD
Ahh Wei Xiao, it must be hard on you 😔😁🤣
Thank you for the chapter ❤
thanks for the update!
Haha! Wei Xiao Xiao is so cute
Thank you for the chapter
The last part made me laugh, but even more than that, it made me warm inside. Maybe Lu Feng can’t see it yet, but he IS special. The most special person in little lunatic’s heart.
I’ve gotta say, Gary is low key the most hilarious character. I love how he tries to shit talk in broken Chinese, and he has such a great rapport with Marshal. So good. I love all of these precious boys.
Finally catched up~
Thank you for the chapter! 💕
Many thanks for the updates! <3
These goddamn chapter names keep on giving me hope and then crushing it and at this point I should have stopped putting faith in them a long time ago.
little lunatic wei don’t hold back cmOn
