Luckily (Making up the title character count)
“Brother, let’s go.” Luo Yan knocked on Cen Xi’s car window. Cen Xi opened the door, got out of the car, naturally took Luo Yan’s hand, and nodded slightly. He looked around, feeling a sense of familiarity, but his heart was inexplicably nervous.
Luo Yan squeezed Cen Xi’s hand, pulled him towards the SY Base, and stopped at the entrance. “Brother, let’s go in.”
Cen Xi looked at the “SY” sign at the entrance, the nervousness in his heart intensifying. During the three years he played professionally abroad, he didn’t have much contact with domestic teams. The only four domestic teams he knew were their opponents: WSW, CS, GY, and teams they had played against two years ago. WSW, CS, and GY had been in the top three for the past two years. So far, the only old domestic team that remained in the top three was WSW. CS and GY were teams that had emerged in the last two years. If Cen Xi had been paying attention to domestic teams, he would have noticed that the gradually declining SY team three years ago had his figure in the world championships four years ago, when it was at its peak. But that was just a what-if scenario. During his time abroad, he had paid no attention to any domestic teams. He only had some knowledge of the Chinese teams that participated in the world championships.
“Okay.” Cen Xi nodded, also squeezing Luo Yan’s hand.
As they entered, Wu Xinshen and Wu Xinming were once again teaming up, entering the game, and tacitly ignoring Cen Xi. There was no major scene as Luo Yan had imagined, but the atmosphere was similar to what Luo Yan had expected.
“Captain Luo Yan, we successfully and luckily entered a 45-minute game. It’s only been a minute, so let’s talk after we finish,” Wu Xinming said, focusing intently on the game. Despite usually preferring to sneak attack, he chose to go head-to-head with his opponents in this game, which was enough to show how bad his mood was.
The same went for Wu Xinshen next to him. As a beast master, he actually gave up placing defensive beasts at his doorstep in this game, choosing to defend the already occupied territory alone, releasing a group of attacking beasts, just to get the opponent’s heads.
They’re crazy. That was the only thought in Luo Yan’s mind after seeing their operations. Seriously, brothers, you’re messing around so much in a 45-minute game. Even if you get the maximum amount of money, it will completely collapse in the later stages, and you won’t be able to win at all. Won’t that make you even more frustrated? Won’t your teammates scold you to death?
Before Luo Yan could start persuading Wu Xinshen, Wu Xinming gave up this way of playing when he saw the small words on the edge of the screen—Training Room. Okay, my bad. They set the 45-minute time themselves, wanting to give their brother a hard time. In the training room, the money is endless. Venting their grievances on the bots, Brother Xinming seemed fine on the surface, but was actually cracked. Brother Xinshen seemed like something was wrong on the surface, but something really major was wrong. Better not disturb them.
“Well, Brother Xinshen, Brother Xinming, we’ll take a walk around the base, you guys play first,” Luo Yan said, keeping his voice as quiet as possible, but making sure Wu Xinshen and Wu Xinming could hear him, for fear of affecting their respective operations.
“Okay,” the two replied through gritted teeth in unison again.
Luo Yan breathed a sigh of relief after pulling Cen Xi out of the training room. The resentment of Brothers Xinshen and Xinming was truly obvious to the heavens. If they didn’t vent first, their brother might be killed by them. As expected, it was the right choice for me to scout ahead first.
“Brother, shall I take you around the base?” Luo Yan looked up at Cen Xi.
“Okay,” Cen Xi looked at Luo Yan, “Captain Luo Yan, should we sign the contract first?”
“Contract?” Luo Yan was a little confused. What contract?
“A contract of indenture, or does Captain Luo Yan not like me, this sniper?” Cen Xi looked at Luo Yan, pretending to be a little aggrieved.
Luo Yan didn’t know what to say seeing Cen Xi like this. Right, his brother has amnesia, forgetting that he founded the SY team with his own money. How should I tell him that his contract of indenture was nailed to the SY team long ago? Even if he doesn’t play professionally, he and the SY team are inseparable.
“Brother, you founded the SY team,” Luo Yan told Cen Xi with a serious expression. “You’ve never signed a contract. You said from the establishment of SY that SY is your own child. As long as you can play, you’ll play for SY for the rest of your life. If you can’t play anymore, you’ll keep all the outstanding players for SY, so that SY remains evergreen.”
The smile on Cen Xi’s face froze, and the corners of his mouth gradually turned down.
“So, even if I left back then, there wouldn’t be any problems for me, no liquidated damages or anything, nothing bad would happen to me, right?” Cen Xi’s mood went down again.
“Yes,” Luo Yan answered truthfully, standing with his back to Cen Xi, unable to see Cen Xi’s expression.
“I’m sorry.” Cen Xi felt that he owed more and more debts, and the burden on his body was getting heavier and heavier. “So this time, I should sign a contract, firmly weld myself here, and be responsible for what I do.”
“Brother, it’s okay, really, don’t put so much pressure on yourself. You’re innocent now too. You don’t even know what happened back then that made you leave here.” Luo Yan saw the pressure Cen Xi was putting on himself. He tiptoed and kissed Cen Xi. “Anyway, you’re back now. You have to lead me, Brother Xinshen, and Brother Xinming to create glory again.”
“Of course.” Cen Xi was still very confident in his skills.
“Oh, I forgot to introduce them. The twins just now are Wu Xinshen and Wu Xinming, one a beast master, one an assaulter. They were both people you pulled into the SY team. Secretly telling you, they have a lot of resentment towards you now. I estimate you’ll have to face a long battle.” Luo Yan changed the subject, shifting Cen Xi’s attention. “Brother, you have to be careful, those two are not easy to mess with, and you, succeeded in messing with them.”
“Okay.” Cen Xi’s mood was still a little low.
Luo Yan couldn’t stand it any longer, violently pulled Cen Xi over, and kissed him comfortingly, actively opening his mouth to let Cen Xi in. After it was over, he panted and said, “Brother, I’m not telling you this to put pressure on you. If you continue like this, I’ll announce in the name of the captain of the SY team that Cen Xi is officially expelled from the SY team and will never be allowed to play professionally in the name of the SY team again!”
Cen Xi chuckled, “Got it, Yan Bao.”
“Let’s go, I’ll take you on a good tour of your former world.”
Cen Xi followed behind Luo Yan, listening to Luo Yan’s explanations of various parts of the base. He was very lucky, very lucky that the former him had such good teammates. They had been waiting for him to come back. He was very lucky to have such a good boyfriend, and he was also very lucky that he came back.
