Chapter 55: Go to FTW! If you can play support for me, then you can definitely play support for him! (2/2)
Wei Xiao’s eyes were firm and confident, “Go and find Close, and tell him that you can play support for him!”
Bai Cai was stunned.
Wei Xiao: “If you can play support for me, then you can definitely play support for him!”
Bai Cai’s scalp tingled, and his hands trembled slightly, “But…”
Wei Xiao ignited his motivation with a single sentence, “What are you cowering for, you’re about to go home and raise pigs, how about just going for it one last time?”
Bai Cai: “……”
Wei Xiao pulled him up and dragged him to the internet cafe. The two of them constantly double queued, double queued, double queued.
Wei Xiao could basically simulate all the jungler talents that Close often used. He used Close’s style to play jungler and led Bai Cai to adapt and become familiar with it.
It was like this for one day, two days, three days…
Not only did Wei Xiao help him find the hand feel, he also helped him with rhythm and direction.
One week later, Wei Xiao was full of confidence, “Go, Old Bai! Close will definitely love you so much he won’t let you go!”
Bai Cai was amused into laughter, “Get lost, what kind of bullshit are you saying!”
Wei Xiao thought about it, then retorted back at him, “Don’t judge the great demon king based on how cold his face is. In fact, he’s a very good person. Proper women are scared of being entangled. If he’s unwilling to play double queue with you, then just set up camp on FTW’s floor and refuse to leave!”
Bai Cai: “Get lost, get lost, get lost!”
Originally, he’d still been a little nervous. After being stirred up by Wei Xiao, to hell with being nervous!
Bai Cai went to FTW.
He’d never even dreamed that he’d have the courage to say a sentence like, “Close, I can be your support player!”
Close had given him a chance.
Bai Cai had indeed achieved it. In 2020, he accompanied FTW to win the domestic championship and became China’s champion support player.
When Bai Cai thought of the past, his heart was full of mixed feelings.
How could there be such a huge gap between different people.
There was Zhou Xingfei, who made people feel sick, and there was Wei Xiao, who gave people a new lease on life.
Bai Cai sighed, “… If a dog bites you, do you really have to go and bite it back?”
Wei Xiao replied, “This matter should’ve been wrapped up a long time ago.”
Bai Cai was still worried, “If you want to make an appointment for a training match, just do it privately. Why did you have to make it a points competition?”
The three training matches held every evening were also called the competition for points, and it could be considered a livestream gimmick for the investor daddies.
Wei Xiao’s voice was steady, “I want him to apologize to you in public.”
Simply saying sorry was nothing. He wanted Zhou Xingfei to apologize to Bai Cai in front of all 18 teams, in front of the livestream camera, in front of the whole audience!
Even if what happened in the past was a long time ago, even if nobody knew about those things, he still wanted Zhou Xingfei to pay for what he’d done!
Bai Cai’s heart felt like it was boiling hot, and the tip of his nose felt sour, “Damn it.”
This doggy thing was really going to make him cry.
A series of footsteps rushed over. Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle were both breathless and panting from running.
Ning Zhehan: “Brother, Brother Bai, you… are you all right!”
He’d hurried over just in time to see Bai Cai’s reddened eyes.
When Li Chun arrived at the FTW training room, Chen Feng and Xiang Liu hadn’t been there.
Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle had just finished their meal and were preparing to kill some soldiers to warm up and so that they’d have a better feel for the game when they started the free matching games.
Li Chun had quickly told them about what was happening in the bathroom of the restaurant.
These two little ones had rushed over anxiously after thanking him.
It was a big taboo for professional players to fight, especially in the training grounds where everything was under monitoring.
It didn’t matter who started the fight; it would be troublesome to have it in their records.
The competition committee couldn’t be blamed for being so harsh. It was true that e-sports players were young and impulsive, yet it was also true that they were very much in the public eye. It had been difficult for e-sports to gain more of a positive reputation in recent years, and nobody wanted to have this reputation tarnished.
Therefore, fighting was absolutely not allowed. If the punishment was mild, the players would be banned from competing for a period of time. If it was serious, they wouldn’t be able to compete for life. The penalties were very heavy.
Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle saw that there were no signs of fighting anywhere and let out sighs of relief.
When they’d heard Li Chun’s words, they’d rushed down in a hurry, wanting to stop a fight from happening as soon as possible. They hadn’t even dared to waste time calling Chen Feng.
Fortunately, nothing had happened with Bai Cai and Wei Xiao.
Bai Cai wiped his face messily and said, “It’s fine, why did you all run over…”
He hadn’t finished speaking yet when Wei Xiao had already pulled the two little ones over and started chattering, “Brothers, help me out.”
Ning Zhehan & Yue Wenle: “???”
Wei Xiao: “Some fool bullied our Brother Cai, and I was impulsive and made a two million yuan training match bet…”
He summarized everything with a few words, and Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle were both muddled.
“Holy shit! Two million!”
Wei Xiao added fuel to the fire, “In fact, if we can’t make it into the top three of the scoreboard today, it’ll be equal to me losing without even fighting.”
Ning Zhehan was shocked, “You’ll have to give them two million?”
Wei Xiao nodded solemnly, “Yes.”
Not only Little Ning, even Old Yue sucked in a breath.
Bai Cai, who was to the side, “…………”
If he hadn’t been about to start crying, he would definitely go up and start cursing. Wei Xiao, could you f*cking stop bullshitting ahhhhhhh!
Wei Xiao shook his head, “In fact, it’s fine if I lose money. The main thing is losing face for our Brother Cai.”
Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle didn’t know about what had happened to Bai Cai back then.
Wei Xiao didn’t care about whether Bai Cai was shy about it or not, and he told the two of them about how Zhou Xingfei had bullied Bai Cai.
They were all close brothers. They would share this bitter hatred and bully that scum together!
Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle instantly exploded in anger, “F*ck, that’s going overboard!”
Bai Cai: “……”
After listening to this black history a few more times, he didn’t even feel the pain in his heart anymore.
Wei Xiao patted Little Ning and Old Yue on the shoulder and said solemnly, “Fellow brothers, it will be a bloody battle today!”
Ning Zhehan was on fire, “We definitely can’t lose!”
Yue Wenle chomped down viciously on a mouthful of potato chips!
Wei Xiao made a closing statement, “For the sake of our Caicai’s innocence, we must win!”
Bai Cai: “???”
Innocence, your sister! Could you speak with human words?!
Little Ning spoke in a small voice, “Hey, Brother Xiao, it’s ‘reputation’, right?”
Wei Xiao thought about it and continued to be expansive, “For the sake of Brother Cai’s desire and passion, we must win!”
Bai Cai: “…………”
F*ck you ahhhhhhh!!
They went to eat baked lobster to replenish their strength. Wei Xiao even got a cup of watermelon juice that Brother Cai had squeezed out personally.
Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle went with them and ate another meal.
After they had eaten their fill, the four of them went upstairs.
When Chen Feng went over to check in on them, he was a little surprised, “Are you not drawing lots today?”
Wei Xiao: “I’ll double queue with Brother Cai today.”
Ning Zhehan raised his hand, “Brother Le and I will double queue together!”
Yue Wenle: “Mm.”
Bai Cai had a sore throat.
Lu Feng arrived five minutes before the free matching began, and saw that the four little ones were full of fighting spirit.
He looked at Chen Feng, “?”
Chen Feng had already learned the full story, and his skull was pounding, “You just keep indulging him!”
Lu Feng looked at Wei Xiao.
Wei Xiao smiled at him, “Thanks, captain!”
Lu Feng was shaken by his words, “What’s the matter?”
Wei Xiao: “Thanks to the two million break-up fee you gave me, I was able to act so fiercely today!”
Indeed. Wei Xiao had dared to throw down such fierce words because he really did have money in his bank account.
It wasn’t the money he’d made from the accompanying player platform. It was the two million that Lu Feng had sent to Wei Xiao.
It was the bullshit break-up fee that Wei Xiao had asked for.
Oh, it was the break-up fee that he’d planned and failed to give to his ‘girlfriend’.
Lu Feng paused for a moment, then corrected him. “It’s not a break-up fee.”
Wei Xiao blinked.
Lu Feng rubbed his soft black hair, “It’s private spending money.”
