Top Of Glory[Esports] Chapter 39
bygift
After the heart-to-heart talk that night, Lin An spent a long time digesting He Chen’s words.
FP’s training schedule is full, and every day after the entertainment game, the team members are preparing for the final round of the group competition.
Lin An wanted to talk to Hechen, but his training was more full than Hechen’s. In addition, as the captain, he also needed to take time to communicate with the coaches based on the training content.
Because of a hand injury, He Chen was cut off from part of his regular training by Lao Tao, and he was only allowed to focus on practicing the coordination of a few heroes.
“You don’t have to take care of me. Your hand is fine. It won’t affect you.” He Chen was not used to Lao Tao’s care. “Don’t affect the team because of me.”
“…You think too much and it won’t affect you.” Lao Tao couldn’t bear it when he saw such a level of talent rewarding hard-working players. “In the points system, if we win the fourth game, we will be sure to enter the next round. The last game will not affect the result. You don’t need to go in. Lay has already made preparations.”
“Take good care of your hands,” Qiao Zhi also came over to scare people. “It doesn’t matter now. If you don’t take good care of your hands and something goes wrong later when you need to play in the game, it will cause us big trouble.”
He Chen rubbed his neck, still a little uncomfortable.
“Okay, go ahead and change the dressing.” Lao Tao said, suddenly remembering something, “Have you had any contact with the players from the second team a few days ago?”
He Chen paused and looked up at Old Tao.
He didn’t like to talk about others behind their backs, so in the end he just said: “We met in person, we didn’t know each other well, so I didn’t say anything.”
Lao Tao wanted to say something, but he just nodded, “I understand. To be honest, you are still from our second team. We will train with them after the summer games. Don’t make things too tense.”
He Chen thought he knew what the two men from the second team said when they went back. He didn’t care, but he still nodded.
Lao Tao was really worried about him, and he had to accept this sentiment.
“Okay, then I’ll go to the medical room first. Doctor Chen is still waiting.”
He actually thought wrong. The two men from the second team were the first to talk to Lin An. They felt guilty before it was too late, and they didn’t dare to confront him.
Old Tao watched him walk away, then went over to Lin An and watched him perform a beautiful one-on-three combo. He didn’t know how to be satisfied.
“Are you overthinking it? With Dawn’s temperament, who can you conflict with?” Lao Tao sighed, “This child is studious, humble and polite. I always feel that he is not suitable for us. Whatever he does, it seems like he is leading a bad boy.”
Lin An recalled all the details of that day. Even if He Chen said something on the phone, his anger should not be directed at him.
He could see clearly that every time He Chen had a little temper, it was actually directed towards him in the end.
When playing against Tiger, he felt that he was not strong enough and failed to react in time to the opponent’s intentions. He was thrown juice by extreme fans. He was also worried that his state would affect the team.
Afraid of not being perfect and causing trouble for the team.
How could Lin An not favor such a lovable kid?
But he was also sure that He Chen’s words “I don’t want to be that cat” were meant for him.
He felt that Lin An’s kindness to him could be withdrawn, and this hint must have been given to him by someone else.
Lin An ended the government training without saying a word, and struck hard and decisively, beating the sparring partner brought in by the coaching staff for a long time without daring to speak.
Lao Tao was admiring Lin An’s operation, but the man got up and logged out of the server.
“No? What are you doing?” Lao Tao was dumbfounded and wished he could fight him, “Prodigal son, you haven’t finished your sparring time yet. What’s going on if you beat someone with autism?”
“Am I some kind of scourge? Why don’t you just sit on a chair?” Chen Qi prepared disinfection tools and planned to remove the gauze for He Chen. When he turned around and saw He Chen’s sitting posture, he couldn’t help but laugh.
Hechen smelled the faint smell of disinfectant in the medical room and moved his body uncomfortably.
The last time Chen Qi came to see him at night, He Chen was still unconscious. Chen Qi didn’t know what Lin An was thinking about him, so he just treated him.Now Chen Qi looked at him again and couldn’t help but secretly thought that Lin An, this old shameless man, had really good taste.
The child was in his prime and his face was so pale that he could squeeze out water. Lin An was really capable of killing him.
Chen Qi clicked his tongue inwardly, but his face remained gentle.
“The recovery is quite good.” Chen Qi took off the gauze and looked at the wound. There was no redness or swelling, and the yellow-white secretions were gone. “But there is rust on the iron piece after all. Although there is no need to wrap the gauze anymore, the anti-inflammatory and sterilizing ointment must continue to be applied.”
As he spoke, Chen Qi went to look in the drawer, said “Hey”, turned around and said apologetically: “I’m sorry, the ointment I want to use for you happened to be used up last time. If I replenish it now, it will not arrive until next week.”
“It doesn’t matter,” He Chen didn’t care much, “You tell me the name of the medicine, and I’ll go to the pharmacy to buy it myself.”
“This kind of prescription medicine is quite expensive for you to buy yourself. You can reimburse it by going to the team’s account.” Chen Qi thought for a moment, “Last time your Team Lin took a tube from me and it probably hasn’t been used up yet. You can borrow it from him.”
Chen Qi didn’t feel guilty when he said this, and he said it as if it was true.
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the child in front of him raised his head, with a pair of clear black eyes that could see into the mind. Chen Qi couldn’t help but feel startled, and could only look at him bravely.
He Chen looked at him for a while, nodded, got up and left.
Chen Qi took a long breath and dialed Lin An. It took a long time for the other party to answer. Chen Qi listened to Lin An’s breathing that was slightly faster than usual on the phone. Without thinking much, he finished what he just said in a few words, “The medicine I got for you last time was the medicine he wanted to use. I can only help you so far. If you two have anything to do, talk to me quickly. I’m tired just looking at it.”
“No…” Lin An didn’t expect him to do this. “I will explain it myself if there is anything. You don’t need to do this step.”
Chen Qi was at a loss for words, “Why don’t you get an advantage and still behave well?”
Lin An’s tone was quite rude, “As a team doctor, this is inappropriate for you. It’s difficult to gain his trust. How can you make him trust you like this? If he has any headache or fever in the future, he won’t come to you. What should I do if I’m really sick?”
Chen Qi didn’t expect Lin An to consider it completely from He Chen’s point of view, and laughed. It seemed that this fox was really in trouble.
He didn’t explain himself and hung up the phone directly.
He Chen returned to the room, thinking about what Chen Qi had just said, hesitating a little.
On the one hand, it is true that he does not want to be alone with Lin An for the time being, but on the other hand…
His memory was pretty good, and he remembered that the number Lin An dialed the night he fell ill was to Chen Qi.
It shows that the relationship between these two people should be good compared to other team doctors.
So what does it mean that Chen Qi deliberately asked himself to find Lin An to get medicine.
He had a guess, but he was afraid that in the end he would be too naive.
He Chen didn’t know what he was insisting on. In fact, he could explain things clearly if he asked Lin An, but he was a little unwilling and worried that he was being reckless.
Such a person is lost and self-consumed, which is simply not what he would do.
But when he met Lin An, who was good in everything, He Chen “didn’t dare” for the first time in his life.
“Dong dong——”
There was a knock on the door at this moment.
The person he dared not give him a chance to escape.
Lin An blocked the door that he subconsciously wanted to close, “Give me a few minutes.”
He Chen held the door handle and finally let him in.
Lin An came in but didn’t say anything about himself. He held the tube of ointment and put it on the cabinet at the entrance of Hechen’s room.
“Chen Qi is my high school classmate. He misunderstood some of my ideas and did unnecessary things. I apologize on his behalf.”
He Chen was actually thinking that Chen Qi’s behavior was only because he couldn’t see it. He just didn’t expose it and didn’t mean to blame him.
It was just Lin An’s actions that prevented him from reacting.
“…So this is what you’re talking about?”
He doesn’t quite understand.
“You put the medicine on first.” Lin An was actually worried about his wound.
He Chen lowered his eyes and glanced at the palm of his hand. When Chen Qi removed the gauze for him just now, he actually discovered that there was no need to apply antibacterial ointment or wrap the gauze, just some iodophor was enough.
Chen Qi just thought of an excuse for him to go find Lin An.
Lin An lowered his head and stood at the door of his room. He was simply wearing a T-shirt and trousers. He couldn’t tell the calmness that others said, but he seemed a little at a loss.
After Lin An came in, he just stood at the door. He Chen followed his line of sight and looked around, and found that from some unknown time, traces of Lin An were everywhere in the room.
Lin An stood there for a while, and He Chen didn’t say anything, nor did he apply any medicine.
So Lin An took the lead to break the silence.
He picked up the tube of ointment on the cabinet again, squeezed it into his hand to dissolve, and then tentatively held He Chen’s fingertips.
He Chen didn’t refuse, so he opened He Chen’s fingers and pressed his warm palm on He Chen’s injured palm.
The palms of his hands that spread the ointment were smooth. He Chen looked up and saw Lin An’s focused eyes.
“You may have misunderstood something.” Lin An looked carefully at his scabbed wound, “I originally wanted to wait… but forget it.”
He Chen suddenly realized something and went to get him a tissue in an evasive manner, “You wipe your hands first…”
He forgot that his wrist was still in someone else’s hand. He only felt that his hand was heavier and there was a heavy men’s bracelet.
He Chen usually never buys these, but after glancing at the logo on the outer circle, he knew that this was a well-known luxury jewelry brand. This dense diamond design would probably cost a lot of money.
You should take it off and give it back to Lin An, it’s too expensive.
But his eyes were a little sore, and he confirmed in a low voice, “So the engraved jewelry…”
“It’s just for you, it’s always been.” Lin An smiled, not being impatient because of his worries about gains and losses, “Although I gave it to you in advance for some reasons… but it’s not a bad thing.”
Lin An led him to touch the place where the words were carved. The dents on the metal were not obvious, but He Chen could also feel out that they were four letters.
D-A-W-N.
To Dawn.
