A stone stirred up a thousand waves. The comments were all excited––
“Elopement is really 6666.”
“Feeling heartache for my vegetable.”
“Brother Vegetable’s green again, and green twice over.”
“Sure enough, as long as one has enough CPs, they will have enough green on their heads that horses can run on it.”
Because Bai Cai was a nice professional player who indulged his fans, he had many cute girls amongst his fans. These girls liked to pair him up with people every day.
Brother Cai was the type of person who could run the Gossip Emperor account. How could this kind of thing bother him?
His character set up was that of a zen youth who let the girls play as they liked.
It was all fine as long as it brought traffic. He was a big adult, so what did he need moral integrity for?
Bai Cai spent a bit of time on Weibo and finally managed to wait until the elopement team showed up.
Wei Xiao had originally been smiling like a fox, but he stopped smiling when he saw Brother Cai. “You’re not done eating?”
Brother Cai: “……” Do you really not feel embarrassed when disdaining me!
Wei Xiao really was disdainful, “It’s been over half an hour. Are you still eating?”
If it wasn’t for the fact that Brother Cai was intimidated by the captain, he would’ve snarked back long ago: Don’t you feel embarrassed saying that about me? What were you up to for the past half an hour?!
Bai Cai simply ignored Wei Xiao, “Captain, sit. I’ll go get you guys some delicious food.”
Wei Xiao: “The captain wants celery, and I want watermelon.”
Bai Cai: “……”
Lu Feng: “…….”
Wei Xiao was amused and said to Lu Feng, “The foods we like to eat both have the color green in them. We’re really predestined.” As long as he wanted to find sugar, it could be found everywhere.
Brother Cai had seen this too often and no longer found it strange. He was already tired of listening to this beast’s cruel and heartless words. He wasn’t going to take something so pointless seriously.
On the contrary, Wei Xiao felt a little guilty after saying this. He snuck a glance at Bai Cai, discovered that he didn’t seem bothered, then whispered quietly to Lu Feng, “Brother Cai’s really oblivious.”
Lu Feng: “… Mm.”
Wei Xiao took advantage of how nobody was around to secretly wrap his little pinky around Lu Feng’s hand.
Lu Feng turned his hand to hold onto Wei Xiao’s entire hand.
Wei Xiao was delighted, “In a bit, I’ll drive Brother Cai away.”
It was a private world for two. What did they need a vegetable light bulb for?
Bai Cai didn’t know that thorough plans had already been made for him and was still earnestly waiting for the chef to finish cutting crab legs.
After preparing a whole pile of food, Brother Cai went back and discovered that the captain and Wei Xiao were sitting together, next to each other… very close together.
Brother Cai complained in his heart: The two of you act more like a couple than a real couple; even the Gossip Emperor wouldn’t dare to write a scene like this!
As soon as Bai Cai came back, Wei Xiao wanted to pull his hand out from beneath the table. Who could’ve known that Lu Feng would hold it tight and not let go?
Wei Xiao: “!”
He chuckled, trying to suppress the numb itchiness on the tip of his heart as he spoke to Brother Cai, “Old Bai, are you still eating?”
Brother Cai: “???”
Why are you laughing so brilliantly!
Wei Xiao used his thumb to scratch Lu Feng lightly, but the words from his mouth were quite calm. “Don’t eat so much. You don’t even like to exercise. What’ll you do if you eat so much you become a fatty when you go back? How will you be a pampered little wife then?”
Brother Cai’s tone wasn’t pleasant, “None of your business, Laozi doesn’t get fat from eating!”
Then, he realized that there was a pit in front of him, “Screw your daddy’s little wife, I’m your God Bai!”
Wei Xiao coaxed him, “Okay, okay, okay, God Bai, go back if you’ve eaten enough.”
Brother Cai looked at him suspiciously, “Are you trying to drive me away?”
Wei Xiao: “Nah.”
Brother Cai: “You’re clearly…”
Wei Xiao spoke frankly, “I’m clearly driving you away.”
Brother Cai: “…………” F*ck!
The corners of Lu Feng’s lips curved up, and he released Wei Xiao’s hand, “Eat.”
Wei Xiao immediately forgot about Brother Cai. He smiled at Lu Feng, “Okay~” The end note of this sentence seemed to float up.

Wei Xiao continued, “Brother Cai, what’s up with you? Do you only care about the captain? Why didn’t you say goodbye to me?”
Bai Cai stumbled, and he left so quickly he practically flew away.
Wei Xiao was happy after driving him away, but he still insisted on sighing, “It’s not easy to keep a son by one’s side after they grow up. Brother Cai used to respect me very much.”
Lu Feng flicked his forehead lightly, “Enough, eat.”
Wei Xiao looked around and saw that nobody was around, so he grew bold again, “Ah…”
He opened his mouth, demanding to be fed.
Lu Feng: “…….”
Wei Xiao even had the nerve to say, “Come on, hurry up, someone will come over soon.”
How could Lu Feng move?
Just then, the sound of conversation drifted over as someone headed their way with a plate of food.
Wei Xiao immediately sat up straight and behaved properly.
Lu Feng was relieved.
Wei Xiao muttered quietly, “I would’ve gone back to the guest room to eat if I’d known it would be like this.”
Lu Feng’s hands, which were holding his fork and knife, paused. His heart was filled with both happiness and regret.
Fortunately, they weren’t in the guest room, otherwise, it would be difficult to determine what exactly they’d be eating; his regret was also because they weren’t eating in the guest room, because compared to eating food…
Although the dining area was very large, and each table was separated from each other, Brother Cai had chosen a booth in order to have some privacy.
However, it was still an open restaurant. Small movements wouldn’t be noticed, but large ones were too risky.
Wei Xiao found the celery at a glance and picked up a piece with his chopsticks, “Captain, how can you enjoy eating this…”
As he spoke, he put the celery into his own mouth, wanting to try it and see exactly how bad tasting this thing that his captain liked was.
Celery was something that those who liked it would love it, and those who disliked it would find it nastier than medicine.
Wei Xiao was ‘poisoned’ by the celery, “Urgh…”
Lu Feng handed him a glass of warm water, “Don’t eat it if you don’t like it.”
Wei Xiao drank a gulp of water and said, “It’s not that bad.”
Lu Feng looked at him.
Wei Xiao’s eyes curved as he smiled at him, “When I’m with you, everything tastes sweet.”
Lu Feng: “…….”
Wei Xiao plucked up the courage to pick up another piece of celery, planning to make himself get used to it.
In the future, if he wanted to stay with the captain forever, he had to get used to eating this kind of vegetable.
But who could’ve known that just as he was about to eat it, Lu Feng said a few words, “Me too.”
Wei Xiao stilled briefly.
Lu Feng added, “Anything you give me tastes delicious.”
Wei Xiao felt like he’d been struck by lightning. He understood instantly.
“You don’t like celery?”
“Mm.”
“You ate it because I held it up to your mouth?”
“Yes.”
“I asked you on Weibo if it was tasty? So you… F*ck!”
What else couldn’t be understood?
At the time, the captain already liked him. How could he refuse to eat the food that the person he liked sent up to his mouth?
Wei Xiao had asked him if it was delicious or not, so how could he say that it didn’t taste good?
In an instant, Wei Xiao’s heart felt both sweet and astringent.
The sweetness was: Ahhhhh how could the captain be so good, he was too good!
The astringency was: How could he be so stupid, making the captain eat so much celery he didn’t even like to eat!
Wei Xiao was annoyed at himself, “I messed up.”
He even said that he wanted to understand the captain, but as a result, he didn’t even know what he liked to eat.
Lu Feng couldn’t bear to see him downcast and said, “I’m very happy.”
Wei Xiao looked up at him, “How can you be happy eating something you don’t like?” The captain was really too good at coaxing him.
Lu Feng dropped his gaze and said lightly, “It’s rare for people to care about me like this.”
His words made Wei Xiao’s heart flutter and tremble.
Lu Feng wasn’t coaxing him. Each word and sentence was from the heart, and it wasn’t easy for him to say them out loud.
Without mentioning his childhood, it had taken Lu Feng a very long time to realize that interactions between people weren’t always malicious.
After joining FTW, the members of the Team of Gods had taken care of him, but that care was subtle, implicit, and even awkward. It required effort to sense and understand it.
It took Lu Feng a long time to understand it.
Later on, he became the pillar, the person in charge, and became the so-called number one in the world.
Close didn’t need people’s care, and nobody would be concerned about the person who stood at the top.
Only Wei Xiao was different.
His kindness towards Lu Feng was straightforward and simple; nothing was concealed or hidden.
Lu Feng could understand it with a glance, and see the brilliant and beautiful soul in his body.
This kind of care was something Lu Feng couldn’t get even if he asked for it. How could anything about it make him feel uncomfortable?
The celery really hadn’t been that hard to eat.
Wei Xiao felt so much heartache his heart was about to break. He said anxiously, “Captain, you have me now, I…”
He recalled what Lu Feng had said to him and blurted out, “I’ll be your family, your friend, your…” He was afraid of being heard by others, so he leaned in close to his ear and added, “Your lover.”
Lu Feng held his hand tightly and suppressed his voice, “Eat.”
Wei Xiao: “Mm.
Neither of them wanted to let go of each other.
After eating, Wei Xiao ran into Yuan Ze in the bathroom.
Yuan Ze had something in his mouth.
Wei Xiao frowned, “Captain Yuan, no smoking in the bathroom.”
Yuan Ze: “Lollipop.”
He took it out, and it really was a fricken lollipop, a strawberry flavored one!
Eating a lollipop in the bathroom, you’re really something. Really worthy of being Old Shit!
Wei Xiao didn’t even know how to continue disdaining this person!
The two of them washed their hands together. Yuan Ze looked at the Wei Xiao in the bright mirror, “Yesterday’s performance was pretty good.”
Wei Xiao: “It was so-so.”
Yuan Ze started again, “You really don’t want to come to L&P?”
Wei Xiao countered, “If I go, what’ll Old G do?”
Yuan Ze: “Gary loves Close deeply. He can go to FTW.”
Wei Xiao’s radar was on alert, “So many people love Close. FTW can’t hold them all.”
Yuan Ze: “Gary’s different. For better or worse, he’s still the second in the world.”
In last year’s solo competition, Old G had taken second place.
Wei Xiao had always liked eating vinegar. At this time, he’d already become a vinegar spirit, “That’s because I didn’t compete then.”
Yuan Ze laughed. His pair of black eyes looked deeply at Wei Xiao, “Quiet, believe me, being Close’s opponent is more interesting.”
Wei Xiao recalled his dialogue with Kim Sung-hyun, and there was a super big feeling of discontent in his heart, “That’s you. My captain and I are a match made in heaven!”
Oh, they really were a match made in heaven now.
Yuan Ze didn’t say more, “Alright. I’m looking forward to your performance in the global competition.”
Wei Xiao was the least likely to back down during the trash talk part of the game, “Don’t worry, FTW will take down the world championships this year with a grand slam!”
The singles competition, doubles competition, team competition, all of it would be FTW’s!
Something that the Team of Gods from back then couldn’t do, FTW would get it done now!
Yuan Ze smiled like a fox, “Don’t say that big brother didn’t remind you. Your FTW might not be able to get a single championship.”
Wei Xiao thought that he was still talking about the singles competition, “Enough already, my captain even broke records this year!”
After getting four consecutive titles, he’d gotten five consecutive titles. This was the real meaning of ‘hands were soft from holding up so many championships’.
Yuan Zes teeth itched, and the lollipop really wasn’t a good fix. Unfortunately, he couldn’t smoke.
“You haven’t seen the rankings in Group B yet, have you?”
Wei Xiao really hadn’t looked yet. He’d been busy falling in love over the past day and night, so where was he supposed to find the time?
Yuan Ze baited him deliberately, “Take a guess at who came second?”
Wei Xiao rolled his eyes, “What, did EVE turn the tables on Y1?”
The situation in Group B and Group A were similar, where two teams were dominant.
There was no need to mention the champion team Y1, who were excessively strong. EVE, as one of the top four teams in the world, was also strong enough to walk sideways.
Especially as these two teams were both in the European division. The smell of gunpowder was heavy, and neither side would stop until the other side was dead every time they met.
Yuan Ze laughed briefly, “RR.”
Wei Xiao was stunned.
Yuan Ze: “That’s right, the RR team from the China competition zone.”
A big surprise had really exploded out in winter training’s Group B.
China’s RR team had been deadly and fierce in the early stages, with their mid-laner Moonlit constantly provoking Xie He, full of enthusiasm and energy in the few times they fought.
Finally, the competition committee had changed the rules, and their rivalry had stopped for a while. However, RR had drawn EVE in the final prize pool competition.
Nobody was optimistic about RR and felt that EVE would win steadily.
RR’s captain, Money, had sent out a Weibo message, “Darlings, help cheer for our Little Moon. Hey, if he wins this game against God Xie, I’ll create a lottery for a Porsche Cayenne, and let everyone play.”
And then…
RR won against EVE.
Moonlit executed a wave of amazing operations and took down Xie He.
RR even managed to take down EVE’s support in the 2v2 skirmish. The rest of the team played out a strong counter attack and played a beautiful reversal game, winning the match!
Because of the time difference, most of the players in Group A had still been sleeping while the match took place. The fans back home were the only ones who’d blown up instantly.
Money was really rich. He immediately sent out a Weibo, “If we win against Y1, we’ll draw a Ferrari.”
The hot search this morning had all been about RR and having money.
People who didn’t know the situation would click in, and then get drawn in.
Unfortunately, RR lost the finals. Even so, the money in the prize pool wasn’t enough for the other team captains to play around with.
After they finished with their celebration banquet, Money didn’t waste any time and directly drew the prize winner––
As soon as the winner’s name came out, the entire network was sent into an uproar.
Brother Vegetable was miserable, Brother Vegetable was really miserable.
He’d been ditched so early in the morning, ate a meal on his own, and was driven away right after the people he’d been waiting for arrived…
TRAGIC. Written in capital letters.
Bai Cai idled away the time by scrolling through his Weibo, and then his mouth dropped open in shock.
What?
WTF!
He won a prize, he won the lottery for a Porsche Cayenne???
