Wei Xiao only saw Lu Feng again when they started the free matching that afternoon.
Lu Feng saw that he was in a good state, “Better now?”
Wei Xiao replied quickly, “After drinking the captain’s ginger tea, how could I dare have a cold.”
Lu Feng ignored his pithy remarks and came over to feel his forehead, “Be careful, don’t get cold.”
Wei Xiao held back his little heart that was bouncing and jumping, “Okay!”
Lu Feng kept feeling like his gaze was a little hot. He sat down, then asked, “Double queue?”
He couldn’t think of anything else that would make this kid so eager.
Wei Xiao beamed with joy, “Yeah!”
Sweet and intimate double queue. It was a great way to cultivate feelings.
Lu Feng breathed a sigh of relief, “Come on, then.”
Once it came to playing games, Wei Xiao began to go crazy.
Their luck was pretty good. They’d first encountered Yuan Ze, who was queuing on his own, then Old G, who was double queueing. In the second last game, they encountered Kim Sung-hyun and played as teammates.
When the opposite side saw their line-up, they already wanted to surrender.
How could they play this game?
The great demon king was on the top lane, Daddy Hyun was on the bottom lane, and there was a little lunatic playing jungler.
The pitiful thing was that their opposing team was a group of scattered players. They didn’t have a single player to rely on!
If it hadn’t been the pride of a professional player supporting them, they would’ve simply waved goodbye.
After the game was over, Wei Xiao was full of disdain at Kim Sung-hyun, “God Kim, hit the matching button a bit later.”
It was too boring for the three of them to play together. The top lane didn’t require his support, the bottom lane didn’t require his support, and other than going to kill off the mid-lane, there was nothing else to do but play around in the bushes. There was nothing fun about it!
Kim Sung-hyun sneered, “Maybe we’ll be opponents in the next game.”
Wei Xiao: “………………”
The koi was worthy of their name. These words were really great.
In the last game, they really became opponents.
Lu Feng and Wei Xiao ran into Yuan Ze and Kim Sung-hyun, who were both single queued.
God Kim: “Hello, Old Shit!”
Yuan Ze: “……”
Because it was on the public chat, Wei Xiao was amused, “Who is this old rat shit?”
Yuan Ze: “……”
Wei Xiao suddenly saw the light, “It turned out to be Captain Yuan!”
Yuan Ze put out his cigarette, “Little friend, lie down and wait.”
Like hell was Wei Xiao afraid, “Come, I’m waiting for you.”
Lu Feng was locked onto Yuan Ze for the entire game, messing with him until he smashed his keyboard, “F*ck, did Close go crazy?!” Hadn’t he just taught him a verbal lesson? Did he have to be so heavy with his revenge?!
Since Kim Sung-hyun and Yuan Ze’s ‘internal fighting’ was a serious problem, they showed no tacit understanding. Lu Feng suppressed Yuan Ze to death and didn’t even give him a chance to breathe.
Wei Xiao was able to go crazy for an entire game and even obtained the ‘killing spree’ achievement.
FTW’s points were very high that day, but unfortunately, they had no opportunity for training matches, and could only sit there and watch others play happily.
It seemed like it had only been a blink of the eye.
More than 10 days had passed since the start of training.
There were only two days left before the final prize pool competition.
Wei Xiao continued to run with Lu Feng. He got out of bed on time no matter what, and became more and more energetic as he ran. Although he was still panting for breath after each run, it was already much better than at the beginning.
They ran into acquaintances again during their morning run.

Ol Lfgjc: “Zw. Vff sbe atfc.”
Because they were running in opposite directions, the two sides separated after a brief encounter.
Wei Xiao drew close to Lu Feng, “You see, Kim Sung-hyun can’t do it. He couldn’t hold on after two days of running. I’m still more reliable.”
He took this opportunity to boast about himself.
Lu Feng: “You’re great.”
Wei Xiao’s heart was itchy from listening to him. He continued, “I can continue to accompany you for your morning runs. We can continue when we get back to the base.”
The corner of Lu Feng’s lips curved. “Good.”
Wei Xiao felt that he didn’t sound committed enough, “Really! As long as you run, I’ll run, regardless of rain or shine!”
Lu Feng looked at him, “Then, what if I don’t run?”
Wei Xiao expressed his loyalty, “I’ll accompany you to do whatever you’re doing.”
Lu Feng: “…….”
He always had the feeling that Wei Xiaoxiao had become more sticky over these past few days.
Lu Feng was afraid that Wei Xiao would continue to deliver fake sugar to his heart and changed the topic, “The domestic competition will start soon after we return home.”
Wei Xiao was full of energy, “I know.”
For FTW, their growth had been amazing over these ten plus days.
Wei Xiao and Lu Feng had fully adapted to their respective positions, and the Old Bai who’d grown serious also gave them more possibilities with their line-ups.
Little Ning was still young, but he had a lot of room for growth. As long as he was tempered well, he would definitely become the mage king of a new generation.
Yue Wenle’s only problem was that he often got caught up in the game. After playing training matches more often, it became clear that this quiet baby-faced youth who didn’t like to speak much and only focused on chomping potato chips would let the game affect him as soon as there was a downturn in the game.
The harder he was hammered, the more impulsive he would become.
He wasn’t like other marksmen at all!
Chen Feng had criticized him several times. Yue Wenle listened to him very seriously, “I’ll pay attention to it next time.”
Next time, it would be the same.
Being unwilling to lose was a good thing, and not backing down was a good thing.
But reason should still be maintained!
Fight when they had a chance to win, and play carefully and focus on development when they couldn’t fight!
In this regard, Wei Xiao felt quite ashamed. He talked to Bai Cai about it privately several times, “Is this the aftereffect of Old Yue getting beaten up by me before?”
Brother Cai’s words hit the bullseye, “There’s really quite a few people who have aftereffects from being beaten by you.”
Nearby were Old Yue and Asleep. Further away, there were Moonlit and Eurostar.
In this winter training camp, the brightest cubs were all from the China competition zone.
On the last day’s prize pool competition, the support channels for the game were opened up in advance.
There was no need to mention the four godly teams. The support they received was shockingly high.
After that was RR from Group B. This time, Moonlit had really performed well. Winning against Xie He had made him famous, and he was the strongest dark horse in Group B.
Then, there was Group A’s FTW. Close had given up playing jungler and had switched to the top lane. Quiet came in out of nowhere, and could play on the same level as L&P, going so far as to take Pro’s points. Their strength was amazing.
China’s TPT had been quiet in the early stages. After RR had no more points competition game chances, they started to shine.
A quiet, silent team had already collected data on the remaining 17 teams. They were always multiple steps ahead in the BP segment of the game, and their calculations could leave their opponents in a state of collapse.
By contrast, the 3U seemed to be overshadowed.
Until one day, during free matching, Asleep and Cong Yi ran into Li Heran and Kim Sung-hyun in a doubles game.
At first, the fans had come to see the Koi team. Then, they were completely led astray by the Pajamas CP.
This support player was amazing, hey, he was as good as Li Heran.
This jungler was so cool. Was the China competition zone so abundant in mad dogs?!
All these newcomers, why were they all so crazy!
After winning against the Koi team in a doubles game, Pajamas became famous.
Although Li Heran hadn’t played for a few days and was still warming up. Although Kim Sung-hyun had casually taken a clumsy, short-ranged gunner, winning was still winning!
3U’s Asleep and Cong Yi let China see more hope on the horizon.
Today’s new doubles competition championships, just imagine it!
Lu Feng had brought up the domestic competition with Wei Xiao not for the sake of analyzing the teams, but because…
“I’ll accompany you to finish the school deferral process when we get back.”
Wei Xiao was stunned.
Lu Feng’s voice was warm, “The procedures aren’t troublesome, you don’t have to worry.”
Wei Xiao knew why Lu Feng mentioned this.
As he ran, his warmed up body made it so that his heart didn’t feel so cold, “Does it require family members to make an appearance?”
Lu Feng: “Although you’re an adult, parental consent is still required for such a big matter.”
Wei Xiao: “……”
He had parents, a set of parents that he never saw.
Lu Feng slowed down and said quietly, “If you don’t want to go home, I can show up and go with them…”
Wei Xiao shook his head, “It’s okay, I can do it.”
Lu Feng was full of heartache, “Let’s stop our run here for today.”
Wei Xiao nodded and followed him back to the hotel room.
The two of them separated to shower. Wei Xiao’s brain was a mess.
How much he missed his parents when he was a child was equal to how much he hated them when he grew up.
Especially after his grandma left; it was like a sharp pain that drilled into his heart and lungs every time he thought of them.
His father.
As a son, he wasn’t filial; as a father, he wasn’t loving.
His mother only placed importance on her husband and saw nothing else.
Wei Xiao had never been able to figure it out. Why had they given birth to him if they didn’t need him?
Since he didn’t have parents, why did he have to accept their torment and suffering?
Grandma left.
They went back, regretted and repented, then apologized.
What use was that?
On what basis should they be forgiven!
Wei Xiao closed his eyes and raised his head to the shower head so that his useless tears would be washed away by the water.
He stayed in the bathroom for quite a long time. Lu Feng came to knock on the door.
Wei Xiao came back to his senses, “Coming!”
He didn’t think about it and opened the door.
Two pairs of eyes met. Water was still flowing.
Lu Feng: “!”
Wei Xiao: “…F*ck!”
There was a bang as Wei Xiao closed the door again, his expression dazed: He didn’t mean to act like a rogue, he really didn’t mean to, he… ahhhhhhh!!!
Little Lunatic Wei had really gone crazy!
Lu Feng remained stunned for a long time before speaking in a hoarse voice, “You, take your time washing, I’ll go next door.”
Wei Xiao could hear him, but he was unable to make sense of it for a while. He was still confused as he answered, “Okay!”
There were no more sounds from outside. Wei Xiao looked at his naked, wet self in the mirror…
He almost wanted to die.
He hadn’t even confessed yet, but he was already lovelorn!
It hadn’t been easy to drop hints over the past few days, but all of his previous efforts were now wasted!
At this time, Wei Xiao no longer had any spare thoughts for his parents. His brain was full of his first love that had died before it even began.
Wait.
Wei Xiao’s short-circuited brain came back online.
––Take your time washing, I’ll go next door.
The captain had gone next door? Gone to wash up next door?
Who lived next door…
Old Bai!
Wei Xiao, who’d just finished playing rogue, instantly became jealous.
How could the captain take a bath in someone else’s place. That wasn’t okay.
Wei Xiao didn’t blow dry his hair. He pulled on a t-shit and went out.
Who could’ve known that he would see Lu Feng as soon as he went outside?
Lu Feng was leaning against the wall. A thin bead of sweat sliding from his chin to drop on his protruding collarbone.
Wei Xiao: “……”
Lu Feng froze, then turned to look at him.
The two of them looked at each other and said nothing.
Wei Xiao suddenly couldn’t help it anymore. The words that he’d suppressed in his heart couldn’t be pressed down anymore.
He liked his captain. He liked Close, liked Lu Feng.
He couldn’t wait anymore. He wanted to tell him.
Even if…
There was a click.
The door beside them opened. Bai Cai had his head down as he played on his cell phone, his eyes closed as he walked in Wei Xiao’s direction.
Then, he heard Wei Xiao’s voice––
“Captain, I like you!”
Brother Cai looked up abruptly and saw this shocking scene.
In the dark corridor, only the deep, dark silhouette of the man who was leaning against the wall could be seen. His figure was slender and his long legs slightly bent, so handsome that it left one’s thoughts a mess.
Standing in front of him was a tall and thin youth. His broad, black t-shirt emphasized his snow-white neck. The tips of his ears could be seen beneath his short, damp hair, and his crisp young voice echoed through the whole corridor.
Lu Feng glanced at Bai Cai and replied in a low voice, “Mm.”
Wei Xiao’s heart leapt.
Brother Cai came back to his senses. He was really scared out of his wits by the daily happenings between these two.
Wei Xiao turned his head and noticed the stunned Brother Cai––
F*ck, he just wanted to confess, not come out of the closet!
Who could’ve known that Bai Cai would then say, “Can you not f*cking repeat yourself three times a day?!”
Wei Xiao: “???”
Bai Cai was about to shatter into pieces from fright, “The whole world knows that you like the captain. Don’t say it so frequently. Are you treating it like your three meals a day?”
Lu Feng reached out to rub his damp hair, “Go and blow dry your hair. Be careful and don’t catch a cold.”
Wei Xiao looked at him stupidly: No, this…
Bai Cai was numb, “The captain likes you too. I like you too. Everyone likes you. Do you want to have breakfast?”
Wei Xiao: “……………………” F*ck?!
HAH! IT FINALLY BIT HIM BACK!! Wei Xiaoxiao, I hope you realise you’ve been acting like a rogue this whole time, it’s just you who didn’t realise it yet ^^; Also Captain Lu!! It really is actualy sugar and not fake this time!! Sigh,,, WX really brought this upon himself, didn’t he….
