FCY Chapter 12

Low Pressure (filler words)

Low Pressure (filler words)

“Oh right, Captain Luo Yan, remember to tell Liu Li she doesn’t need to look for a sniper anymore.” Wu Xinming sprawled on the sofa, scrolling through his phone. After seeing the news just released by the CS team, his previously stable mood instantly became unstable. “Damn, the CS team is really fast. Just yesterday they were lamenting Ben Tuiyi’s retirement, and today they’ve officially announced Li Yu joining the team.”

“That’s normal.” Wu Xinshen also picked up his phone to look. “Li Yu didn’t want to stay on our team anyway. If it weren’t for his contract, he would have left long ago.”

“Yeah, that’s true.” Wu Xinming nodded in agreement, his mood sinking. “From the moment he joined, he was just thinking about relying on the team’s substitute spot to win a championship. His motives weren’t pure. But, it’s a real shame about Ben, such great talent, and he had to retire because of a hand injury after only a few years.”

Everyone in the SY team understood this. They all understood that Li Yu’s purpose in joining the team wasn’t simple. In a way, he couldn’t be considered a qualified professional player. He only had talent, not hard work.

During this time, Luo Yan listened to Wu Xinming and sent a WeChat message to Liu Li, telling her that Cen Xi had returned to the team and there was no need to look for a sniper. Immediately, he was bombarded with messages from the SY team manager.

What! Cen Xi is back? When did he come back?

Why did he leave the team!

Yan Yan, don’t be silent, quickly tell me the whole story!

…..

He’s at the base now, right? Tell him not to leave, I’m coming over right now!

Luo Yan looked at the dozen or so new messages on his phone and couldn’t help but shiver. He thought carefully. It seemed that brother wasn’t just going to be tormented by Xinming and Xinshen, but also by many people on the team. After all, since the SY team was founded, apart from the sniper position, there hadn’t been much change in the other positions. The manager was still the same manager, and the coach was still the same coach.

But… Cen Xi went home to pack his clothes after playing the game with Luo Yan. Tonight, he was planning to move into the base.

He went home to pack…

Luo Yan sent a message to Liu Li and then set his WeChat to “Do Not Disturb.” After thinking about it, he sent a message to Coach Zhu Zi as well, and then, with the hand speed of a professional player, he set Zhu Zi to “Do Not Disturb” too. I won’t accompany brother in bearing the consequences of what he did. The world is so peaceful…

Since Cen Xi “subdued” Wu Xinming and Wu Xinshen, Luo Yan wasn’t worried about Cen Xi being bombed with questions. He opened the game and looked at Wu Xinshen, who was playing on his phone beside him. “Xinshen, wanna queue up?”

Wu Xinshen nodded, put down his phone, and entered the game with Luo Yan.

Sure enough, Zhu Zi and Liu Li returned to the base together during the team’s break after receiving the message. At this time, Cen Xi, the person in question, had not yet returned.

Looking at the two of them walking into the training room from outside with fierce expressions, the three of them: …. (didn’t dare to speak)

Wu Xinming and Luo Yan hid behind Wu Xinshen. The two of them exchanged a look and simultaneously pushed Wu Xinshen forward.

Wu Xinshen looked back at them, sighed silently, but as expected, he spoke the first sentence in this low-pressure atmosphere, “Coach Zhu, Manager Liu, why are you here?”

“Where’s Cen Xi?” Liu Li looked around but couldn’t find Cen Xi’s figure. Obviously, she hadn’t seen Luo Yan’s last sentence, and she hadn’t continued to bombard Luo Yan.

“Manager Liu, you can check your phone messages,” Luo Yan said softly, not daring to step forward.

Liu Li opened her phone to look at it, took a few deep breaths, “He’ll be back later, right?”

The three of them nodded simultaneously.

Zhu Zi didn’t say anything, maintaining his usual silence. He walked over to the sofa and sat down. He and Liu Li lived in the same residential area. After receiving Luo Yan’s message, he immediately ran outside the complex to hail a taxi, but happened to run into Liu Li, so he got a ride in Liu Li’s car. As for his own car, it had been sent for maintenance and hadn’t returned yet.

“Coach Zhu looks even scarier than when we lose a match,” Wu Xinming whispered to Luo Yan.

Luo Yan nodded in agreement, “When we lose a match, at least he’ll say a few words. Unlike now, when he doesn’t say a word, it’s terrifying.”

After Luo Yan finished speaking, Zhu Zi immediately said his first sentence, “What are you three doing? Standing at attention?”

Luo Yan smiled awkwardly, pulling the Wu brothers to sit down on their respective gaming chairs. “Did Coach Zhu hear us talking about him? He immediately broke my sentence after I finished speaking.”

“I don’t know.” Wu Xinming shook his head slightly.

After the three of them sat down on their gaming chairs, they looked at each other, and simultaneously put on their headsets, opened the game, and queued for a three-person match. In the game, they could ignore the low pressure in reality.
