Chapter 140: Wei Xiao: The captain and I are together.

Wei Xiao didn’t have that many friends, and he didn’t want to lose this vegetable stalk, so he tried his best to save Bai Cai’s life. “Screw your caring for me. Although I’m gay, I only have the captain in my heart and won’t love anyone else!”

He was still wearing his sunglasses, and when he said those words, it was really like that expression pack––with sunglasses, there is no love.

Oh, except for Close.

Bai Cai still didn’t realize that he was wandering on the edge of life and death, continuing his death-seeking behavior. “Come on, your eyes are already swollen. Aren’t you tired from wearing sunglasses all night?”

Wei Xiao: “……”

He hadn’t hung up the phone, and this vegetable stalk had sold him out completely now. Even he hadn’t dared to cry to the captain when he’d called!

Bai Cai was really distressed for him, so much so that his heart was creaking.

Although it was mostly abuse from thoughts his own brain had come up with, Brother Cai was also considering things seriously for the sake of his brother.

Besides Lu Feng, Bai Cai had the clearest view about Wei Xiao’s situation.

It was a miracle to have a Little Xiao like this despite having such parents.

But no matter how sunny and healthy Wei Xiao appeared, he was extremely short on love.

He longed for love and also wanted to love; he was eager to have a sense of security, and would try his best to protect everything around him.

Bai Cai wasn’t that surprised when he’d learned that Wei Xiao had fallen for Lu Feng.

The captain had given him too much.

He’d led him out of the grief left by his grandmother’s death, given him a stage where he could prove himself, and given him a home called FTW.

The captain favored him, took care of him, appreciated him…

Wei Xiao trusted him, was attached to him, admired him…

It was easy for such feelings to escalate.

Bai Cai had initially felt that the captain also liked Wei Xiao. He’d always had speculations regarding Lu Feng’s sexual orientation, and he’d indeed sensed the concern Lu Feng had for Wei Xiao.

But unexpectedly, the captain’s concern and care was really just the preference shown to an excellent player of a younger generation.

On the other hand, the clueless Wei Xiao had figured things out first, and after figuring it out, he’d been unable to keep himself from confessing, only to get rejected.

That was abusive.

Too damned abusive. Even the Brother Cai who’d read many such small articles felt that he should abandon his account.

There was no such thing as a true love CP! It was all fake!

No matter how happily they shipped a CP in their dreams, it couldn’t hold up under a single knife from reality.

Bai Cai thought about it back and forth, and felt that he couldn’t just sit back and ignore the situation. He had to pull Wei Xiao back up again.

Brother Cai spoke with great pride, “No matter how frustrated we are in love, we’re still proud on the battlefield! Real men don’t need love!”

Wei Xiao still hadn’t recovered from the previous hit.

Brother Cai continued to send himself up to the chopping block, “There are so many good men in the world. Why love the captain alone? Big brother will help you find a better one when we go to the global competition!”

If Wei Xiao still didn’t speak, he’d be able to eat the famous banquet dish, boiled white cabbage, for breakfast tomorrow!

“That’s not it!” Wei Xiao quickly interrupted his crazy ideas, “It’s not what you think.”

Brother Cai’s expression was filled with heartache. “Mm, I know your will is strong.”

To hell with your daddy’s strong will, oh… sorry, he shouldn’t curse Uncle Bai, to hell with your big uncle’s strong will (neither he or Brother Cai had uncles).

Wei Xiao pulled him into his dorm room and closed the door behind him.

Brother Cai was very calm. He’d already prepared his shoulders and was waiting for Little Lunatic Wei to cry on it.

Wei Xiao was really out of ideas. If he didn’t come clean, then this fellow might get himself killed, and FTW would lose a support player. What kind of triple championship cups would they take then!

“Cough……”

When it was time to actually speak, Wei Xiao felt a little embarrassed.

Coming clean to Brother Cai wasn’t that hard, but the captain’s phone was still on. The captain could hear everything he was saying.

Could he hear it?

Wasn’t it better if he could?

Wei Xiao stopped hesitating. “I already got together with the captain.”

Bai Cai: “???”

Wei Xiao’s eyes lowered slightly, his fingers unconsciously touching his pocket, where his cell phone was. He wasn’t sure if the captain had hung up the call or not yet.

Wei Xiao continued, “The captain likes me too.”

His heart felt hot after he said that, as though these words held infinite power that squeezed into his chest.

Brother Cai: “………………”

Three seconds later, he exploded, “What did you say?!”

There was nothing that could sufficiently describe Bai Cai’s mood at the moment. It was as though he’d been eating in a suspended restaurant in the air one second ago, but the glass under his feet had shattered one second later. This fall from such a high altitude practically made his heart stop!

What the hell!

What was going on?!

Had Little Lunatic Wei started going crazy because he was too sad?

Wei Xiao apologized, then said, “In fact… we’ve been together for a long time.”

Brother Cai: “……”

The colors on his little face were just like Coach Chen’s drawings.

“Are you f*cking kidding me!”

“I didn’t dare to say it last time because I was afraid that your mentality would collapse.”

“I f*cking…”

“Stay steady, it should be kept quiet.”

The air seemed to freeze for a few seconds. Bai Cai still had trouble accepting it, “You guys… when did you get together?”

It was impossible! How could they get together without him knowing? Was his title as the Gossip Emperor completely superficial? Were the countless words in his little articles all for nothing? He…

Wei Xiao cleared his throat, “… After the game against Pro.”

Bai Cai: “……”

Damn it, not only was it for nothing. He simply felt that he was a stupid fool!

So it turned out that they’d been together for so long, yet he’d even thought that Wei Xiao was lovelorn?

Wei Xiao thought back to what had happened back then and felt a little sweetness in his heart. His voice was soft, “At the time, I wanted to win against Pro and obtain the winter training camp championship so that I could confess to the captain.”

Bai Cai: “……” You really have a damned sense of ceremony.

“Then, we lost the game.”

“……” Brother Cai had a bad premonition.

Wei Xiao’s lips formed a smile, and it was unclear who he was saying these words to, “The captain kissed me.”

Bai Cai: “………………”

The smile on the corner of Wei Xiao’s lips couldn’t be suppressed as he continued, “I asked the captain why he was kissing me, and he said it was because he liked me.”

Bai Cai wanted to run, but he couldn’t move his legs.

Wei Xiao went on, “I asked him if it was the like between a younger generation and his senior, then asked him if it was the type of like between family members. The captain said…”

He looked at Bai Cai and spoke each word clearly, “……The kind of like where I want to be your boyfriend.”

Brother Cai: “………………………..”

Wei Xiao continued energetically, “After that…”

Bai Cai couldn’t listen on any longer, “Stop!”

Wei Xiao looked at him.

Bai Cai’s scalp was numb. “There’s no need to tell me in such detail. I get it!”

Wei Xiao wasn’t finished, “This isn’t detailed. I’ve just started.”

Bai Cai: “……” F*ck your daddy’s just started!

Bai Cai’s brain was buzzing. After sorting things out in his mind for a long time, he asked, “So, you’re not lovelorn.”

Wei Xiao: “Of course.”

Bai Cai was going crazy. “Then why did you look like the heavens were splitting apart when you played against HU!”

Wei Xiao: “……” He didn’t want the captain to hear about this.

Bai Cai couldn’t figure it out, “Tell me, did you look normal then? Could it be that you miss the captain because he’s been gone for too long?”

Missed him so much he went into seclusion? Missed him until the skies collapsed? Until he had to take his anger out on HU?

Wei Xiao couldn’t answer. This was one of the reasons he didn’t want to come clean to Bai Cai.

He could talk about anything but the captain’s shoulder.

Nobody at FTW could accept such news.

Wei Xiao breathed lightly. “Yes. It’s because I miss him. Is that not allowed?”

Bai Cai: “……”

Wei Xiao continued darkly, “You don’t get it. Long distance love is very difficult. I miss him every day, and it starts to pile up. At first, I could still suppress it, but after getting stimulated by HU, I couldn’t hold it in any longer.”

Bai Cai: “……”

Wei Xiao continued ‘complaining’, “Just think about how my life has been over the past month! I get up in the morning without a morning kiss, can’t hold hands during lunch, there’s no kiss as a reward for winning the training matches, and before sleeping…”

Bai Cai’s ears were going to go deaf. He interrupted him, “You…” Could you be a little less shameless!

Wei Xiao spread his hands, “Sigh, you’ve been single since you were born. You don’t understand.”

Bai Cai’s eyes were also going to go blind., “I was an IDIOT in capital letters for being worried about you!”

Brother Cai left, his mouth stuffed with dog food and anger.

There wasn’t a messy situation, he wasn’t lovelorn, and there was no abusive situation either. It was just bucket after bucket of fiery hot dog food; what was up with that!

After returning to his own room, Bai Cai realized something else after the fact, “Holy shit… LU…”

Was that little sister who was number one on the Quiet support rankings really the great demon king?

Brother Cai was paralyzed.

All the dog food he’d been fed that night wasn’t eaten unjustly.

After all, if he changed his name to Soybean, then he’d only be able to eat dog food.

As soon as Bai Cai left, Wei Xiao immediately took out his cell phone. The call duration: 16 minutes.

The captain hadn’t hung up.

He’d heard everything he’d said to Bai Cai.

Wei Xiao stared fixedly at his cell phone. His mouth, which had dared to say anything just now, fell silent again.

Lu Feng’s low voice came out of the speaker, “Is Bai Cai gone?”

Wei Xiao abruptly came back to his senses. “Yes.”

The two of them paused for a while. The call time on the screen gradually increased, and each second seemed to sync up to his heartbeat.

Lu Feng: “The day we lost to Pro was the happiest moment in my life.”

Wei Xiao’s fingers clenched tight around his cell phone.

Lu Feng seemed to be speaking from right next to his ear, “Thank you.”

Thank you for coming to my side, thank you for liking me, thank you for being willing to stand with me and support FTW.

xiin: Bai Cai, the exploded vegetable.
