FCY Chapter 107

Subverting My Image

Subverting My Image

“Qing Lu, I feel I must apologize to you first. I brought my emotions into the game just now and played quite aggressively. I’m sorry,” Luo Yan said, stopping at the entrance of the base, his eyes filled with apology as he looked at Qing Lu.

“It’s okay, I was mentally prepared, and I learned a lot from these few rounds,” Qing Lu said, his face showing no anger at Luo Yan’s aggressive play, only a humble desire to learn and admiration for Luo Yan. He also wanted to become as awesome of an entry fragger as Luo Yan. In these few rounds, he once again felt the gap between him and his senior. He had to continue to work hard for his dream.

“Alright, let’s go grab something to eat. While Zhu Zi is away from the base on business, we can stay out a bit longer.”

Luo Yan pushed Qing Lu forward. Qing Lu hadn’t expected Luo Yan to do this at all and almost fell.

“Hahaha! Young people don’t have enough balance. You need to eat something good to replenish it. Let’s eat… hmm… oden, I haven’t been to a convenience store in a while.”

Luo Yan walked ahead of Qing Lu, waving his hand, “Keep up.”

“Hahaha, coming right up, Luo-ge!”

In this instant, the barrier between the two slowly shattered under Luo Yan’s efforts. In Qing Lu’s heart, Luo Yan was no longer just the unattainable captain in his mind. His idol had now become more human, just a mischievous and spirited young man.

“Here, have a seat for a while,” Luo Yan said, taking the oden and sitting on the convenience store chair.

Qing Lu obediently sat next to Luo Yan.

“How’s the training these past two or three months?”

Qing Lu lowered his head, preparing to answer Luo Yan’s question seriously.

“I think… it must be quite dull, right? That’s what I think, anyway, and I still think that way now.” Before Qing Lu could answer, Luo Yan started talking to himself, “Hehehe, you might not believe it, but I’m the one who skipped training the most in SY. Sigh, now as the captain, I’m even leading my teammates to skip training…”

Luo Yan seemed to be lamenting his mistakes, but in reality, after eating a meatball, his left hand secretly rubbed his right wrist. He looked at Qing Lu solemnly, “Remember to inherit your idol’s good virtues.”

Qing Lu was amused by Luo Yan, “Luo-ge, do you really want me to inherit this? I feel like I’ll be beaten to death by Zhu Zi-ge.”

Qing Lu was different from the other members; he still had respect for the coach, Zhu Zi, in his heart.

“What are you afraid of? I! No, Xinming-ge is covering for you, he can’t possibly fail to cover for you. Let me tell you, Xinming-ge seems like he doesn’t like to talk, but when he does, he’s so sarcastic he can make Zhu Zi-ge doubt his entire life.”

“Really?” Qing Lu was a little doubtful.

“Yeah, he’s just putting on an act in front of you now. Sooner or later, you’ll see his true face.”

The two of them slowly ate oden at the convenience store. The entire time, Luo Yan was telling Qing Lu all sorts of random things about SY, but he didn’t say a word about Cen Xi.

Luo Yan threw the last piece of fish tofu into his mouth and then glanced at his phone, which he hadn’t looked at in a long time. He froze instantly. A second later, he grabbed Qing Lu and ran for his life, muttering repeatedly, “I’m doomed, I’m doomed.”

Qing Lu hadn’t even reacted yet and followed Luo Yan out of the convenience store with a bewildered expression.

“Wait, put all the responsibility on me,” Luo Yan said, pulling Qing Lu as they ran.

“Responsibility?” Qing Lu hadn’t experienced this before and didn’t quite understand.

“Yeah, yeah, Zhu Zi-ge came back to the base much earlier than I expected. It’s okay, don’t be afraid of him scolding you, put the responsibility on me. I’m used to being scolded by him, I’m not afraid.” Luo Yan’s words sounded so nice, but his face had an expression of preparing to die.

“Got it, Luo-ge.” In these dozens of minutes, Luo Yan’s image in Qing Lu’s heart, as well as the image of people in SY other than Cen Xi, had more or less been subverted. To the point that Qing Lu now dared to speak to Luo Yan in a joking tone.

Luo Yan didn’t want to argue with Qing Lu either. He just smiled, after all, he had brought him out, and he was still a senior. He would bear the responsibility himself. If it were anyone else on the team, even if he had brought them out, he would try his best to push the responsibility to someone else.

Moreover, he had achieved his goal this time, and that was enough.
