The unrestrained thoughts Shi Luo had accumulated bit by bit was crushed by the power of Old Qiaos awe-inspiring righteousness.

Shi Luo leaned against the wall and took a deep exhausted breath. He asked, wondering, What are you doing here?
Old Qiao was shocked by Shi Luos bold self-confidence. He said, Thats a good question. What am I doing here? What am I doing here?!
Youve been absent from work for no apparent reason for almost half an hour! You should be thanking me for not going to Zhou Huo to have your salary deducted. Youre the one acting unbridled and youre ask me what Im doing here? I came here to see if anything was the matter.
If nothings the matter, then stop trying to pick up guests here! Go and do your training!
Oh. Shi Luo scratched his hair, feeling fidgety. He looked completely embarrassed. He lowered his head and said, Sorry, I know.
Old Qiao felt uneasy all over. He looked at Shi Luo, still completely puzzled no matter how much he thought about it. He urged roughly, Go go, go. If youre not feeling sick then go train.
What the hell were you doing...
Shi Luo closed the door and followed Old Qiao back to the training room. Yu Suis seat was vacant. Shi Luo tilted his head and took a look. His live broadcast was also closed.
Chen Huo and Puppy were both playing single row. They were both wearing sound-proof headphones. They hadnt heard anything since just now. They certainly wouldnt know where Yu Sui had gone off to.
Shi Luo could only look questioningly at Old Qiao. Old Qiao looked at Yu Sui empty seat. Oh, Zhou Huo called him away just now.
Shi Luo nodded. He returned to his seat, closed his live broadcast and started playing single row.
After Yu Sui brought such a big wave of rhythm onto himself, Zhou Huo, naturally, couldnt just sit still. He hurriedly called Yu Sui to ask him just what was he going to do and whether he should issue a clarificatory statement.
Hed said everything himself and there was nothing he wanted to take back. Yu Sui told Zhou Huo there was no need to clarify or admit anything.
Since Shi Luo didnt want to make it public for the time being, Yu Sui respected his opinion and did not have any plans of coming out.
Zhou Huo couldnt understand, Since you dont want to go public they why were you bringing along your own rhythm and playing ambiguous? What do you want to do? Do you simply want to help me create topics? When did you start being so considerate?
Isnt it my job to sell the team? Why are you trying to steal my job?
Zhou Huos eyes gleamed, Someone has combined your voice from the live broadcast and Shi Luos webcam feed into a video and posted it on the Internet. The amount of reposts, aiya...really, I saw that video and I thought it was superb.
Your words combined with those little expressions of Evils...it really grips peoples hearts.
Zhou Huos thoughts were very far-reaching, Is this you paving the way for when you do go public in the future? Are your plans always this thorough?
Yu Sui smiled, I didnt put that much thought into it.
Actually, I just did it on a whim. I just didnt want him to be upset so I suddenly felt like I wanted to say a few words...
to kind of smooth things over for him. Yu Sui fiddled with his phone and said slowly, I just wanted to tell the new fans about our old scores, but as I kept talking I was also moved.
Zhou Huo looked Yu Sui up and down. He asked curiously, What do you mean moved?
Yu Sui paused, and said after a moment, Thinking back on the past, I feel like I didnt care for him enough.
Zhou Huo was startled, and laughed, Not enough? How was it not enough? You think youre not being good enough to Shi Luo?
Yu Sui smiled and shook his head. He didnt offer any further answer. He got up and headed by himself to the training room.
Since Shi Luo met him, Shi Luo had been deceived and sold by him. From start to finish, he never managed to get more than a few happy days. How could that be considered as him treating Shi Luo well?
If he hadnt cared for him enough then hell just have to care more for him from now on.
The next day was their regular season game against team Windbreak. It was a home game so there was no need to get up too early. Everyone got up at the usual time, ate breakfast and then packed their things and went to their own stadium.
Windbreak was the relegation team last season. There really was no need to be nervous. Free directly and efficiently won against Windbreak, 2-0. Counting the break and the post-match interviews, they finished in less than an hour and a half.
There were two games today. Before Free vs. Windbreak, there was an NSN vs. Saint game in the other stadium.
Before Frees match, they were still playing their third round. Now that their match was over, they could find out the results of the other match.
Old Qiao said, NSN has won.
Shi Luo was surprised, Wawa fought?
Old Qiao nodded, He fought, especially in the third game. He played really well.
Awesome. Chen Huo clapped his hands and said in admiration, Great, NSN won against Saint, Saint won against us, and we won against NSN... Every team is wondering how the opposing team won. No one will laugh at anyone in the future, its all very good...
Grow up! Old Qiao gave Chen Huo a slap on the back of his head. The two teams played at least three rounds, okay? What about us? We got our heads shaved by Saint, 2-0.
While you guys were brainlessly slaughtering here, the other two teams were playing like a raging fire over there. To be honest, I didnt pay too much attention during your game just now. I even started to watch a live broadcast of their match...
Yu Sui sorted out his peripherals and said, How was their fight?
Brilliant, exciting, and a lot more forceful than your play over here. Old Qiao was breathless with admiration. Old Gu really had been hiding a lot from us. They were in very good form during todays game.
Completely unlike their rhythm during the usual practice games...today we wont be doing a game review of our match. Well do one of theirs instead.
Puppy sighed, Okay, I already guessed we werent going to do a game review of todays game. I wanted to take it a bit easier today. How could anyone find this reasonable? We were finally going to get out of having our own game review and now, were doing other teams game review for them.
Know yourself and your enemy. We cant afford for you not to see it. Old Qiao also knew that they were tired from the intensive training a few days ago so he consoled them, saying, But this time we wont be eating at home. Were going to be rewarding everyone with a good meal.
Manager Zhou is already waiting for us at the restaurant. Lets get going...
At Old Qiaos urgings, the players packed up and walked out carrying their peripheral bags.
On the way to the parking lot, they met with the fans who were waiting for them after the end of the game. It was a home win and although it was a no-brainer win, the fans who watched the game were still happy. They were especially excited when they saw the players.
They were already greeting them even from far away. Many of the fans were holding gifts.
Even since their time in the old FS team, these players have ever hardly accepted the fans gifts or flowers. They simply greeted the fans as usual and left. Only Yu Sui took a second look and walked two steps back.
Amidst the fans calls and greetings, he accepted a chibi-type striker figurine held by one of the fans.
The fans surrounding Yu Sui couldnt help but laugh. They didnt understand why Yu Sui would suddenly want a little doll.
Yu Sui himself was a little embarrassed. He smiled at the fan, gave a little gentlemans bow, turned around and got into the car.
The other people were already seated in the car. Puppy raised his eyes and glanced at Yu Sui. He said lazily, Regressing back to our childhood now, are we?
Old Qiao also turned his head and took a look. He saw that Yu Sui was only holding a doll and didnt care, I seem to have seen that one on Taobao...Its less than 100 yuan, just take it.
Chen Huo glanced at Yu Sui contemptuously, Just how old do you think you are?
Only Shi Luo, who was sitting in the back row, said nothing.
Sure enough, Yu Sui got into the car with the doll and sat next to Shi Luo. He threw the doll into Shi Luos arms.
While others were chatting and not paying them any mind, Yu Sui set down his peripherals bag to one side and said in a low voice, ...Shi Shen, I have gone five or six years without accepting any fan gifts.
But for you, an exception is worth it.
No one will think of giving you this kind of small gift but I will.
If its for you, its okay to be heckled by fans and made fun of by teammates.
