Next time for sure

"Let us once again congratulate FD on winning the Spring Championship. However... the suspense of tonight isn't over yet, that is... who will be the FMVP winner?"

FMVP, the Most Valuable Player of the Finals, is the player with the best performance of the game and the highest individual honor in the e-sports professional league.

"Dear audience members, who do you think it could be? Let's shout out his name together!"

Live broadcast room barrage:

"Changyan, you played Lu Bu really well in the last round!"

"I think Moon is pretty good too! His flash kill in the last game and Gongsun Li in the first game were both really eye-catching!"

"I have to choose between Changyan and Moon! I'd choose Changyan. It's been really hard for him to get to this point. Moon still has a long future ahead of him and still has opportunities."

"Anyone would be able to accept these two people, right? They're probably smoking. I just saw the host glance at him!"

"I also think it's Changyan. After all, he's a veteran player in the league. Although Moon plays well, he's not as stable as Changyan overall."

Everyone held their breath.

"He is—"

"It's FD..."

"Let's congratulate FD's confrontation laner—Changyan!!"

“Ah~”

"Congratulations to FD Changyan for winning the King of Glory Pro League Spring Championship!"

"Wow!" The FD team members looked at Changyan and applauded him.

"oh!"

Spider patted his shoulder and whispered in his ear, "Thank you for your hard work."

Moon also looked at Changyan who was standing at the other end of the team, applauded him with an affirmative look, and raised the corners of his mouth.

I am sincerely happy for him and proud of him.

Shui Jin handed the microphone to Chang Yan, "Come, tell us about your journey."

Changyan's eyes were red and filled with tears. After taking the microphone, she looked up, as if to hold back the tears that were about to overflow, or as if expressing her feelings after going through so much.

Looking forward, "Well... thank you to the self who has always been steadfast, thank you to the self who stood up again after repeated failures, thank you to the self who has experienced countless doubts but still refused to give up, and of course thank you to the fans who have always been with me, and our teammates who have been moving forward.

And my coach and my girlfriend who have always encouraged me, because of you, I can stand here, and I feel like I am dreaming at this moment."

"Wow!" The audience cheered wildly.

"Is she at the scene now?" Shui Jin couldn't help but ask,

Changyan's cheeks instantly flushed with a noticeable blush, and with a rare hint of shyness in her voice, she replied, "Yes, she was there. She witnessed me win the championship again. This is my 520 gift to her."

The audience and the barrage exploded:

"Wow!"

"What's going on?! It's too much of a show of affection in public!"

"What kind of fairy love is this!"

Captain Changyan, who is usually steady, actually killed a dog in public!

Spider, who was standing next to him, rolled his eyes and pulled the corners of his mouth upwards uncontrollably, revealing a slightly disgusted expression, his eyes seemed to say: "Brother, you can do it."

OneWan tilted his head and stared at him with a playful expression and laughed secretly.

Moon on the side was also trying hard to purse his lips, trying to suppress the upturned corners of his mouth, but an unconcealable smile appeared in the corners of his eyes.

…

"All of Changyan's hard work has finally paid off. We have a long way to go! Please enjoy the glory that belongs only to you and your team tonight!"

The fans in the audience could no longer hold back their tears, "Long smoke! Long smoke!"

Changyan is the oldest active player in the league's competitive lane. His contemporaries have long since retired. For four years, in this arena where innovations are constantly changing, he has always held fast to his beliefs.

Lian Po is not old, he can also wield the sword.

The long smoke is vast, it is wild, it is the universe,

Player Changyan, no one can define you. Your obsession finally turns into golden rain flying all over the sky.

Thanks to the veterans for sticking to the game. Changyan still has a long way to go and we have a promising future.

Congratulations young man, for reaching the top of the mountain city.

After taking the group photo, the contestants left the stage and went backstage for interviews.

After the show ended, it was already past ten o'clock in the evening.

Jiang Gao: [We won the championship]

On May 18th, he sent a WeChat message as promised.

Lin Yueqin couldn't help but smile after seeing the message. It was exactly the same as what she said last time. She actually thought he was quite cute like this.

Lin Yueqin: [Congratulations to contestant Moon! You keep your word!]

[I watched your match live. You played really well tonight! Your makeup and makeup looked great too!]

Jiang Gao, sitting in front of the interview booth, lowered his head and looked at his phone with a smile on his face.

【Thanks】

He is in a good mood today and feels refreshed.

Doesn’t it feel great to win the championship?

Jiang Gao paused as he was about to type, pretending to think seriously before replying: [Not bad]

Lin Yueqin's lips curled up. So calm? You're so pretentious, brother!

【Is the scene lively today? 】

[Well, the fans are very enthusiastic, and the segments set up by the alliance are also quite interesting]

[Wow! I want to go there too. I think it would be awesome to watch the game live. Feeling the fans' passionate cheers and seeing you guys hold the trophy up close would be a unique experience!] (Attached is a distressed cat emoji)

Jiang Gao narrowed his eyes, his gaze a little dazed as he typed:

[Next time for sure]

[Yes, next time for sure]

[Are you guys going out for a big meal now? ]

[After the interview, we'll go out for a celebration dinner]

[Then you must eat more today! You are our FD's biggest hero!]

"Are you hot? Why are you wearing so many clothes? Take off your coat!" One Wan, who was standing by, saw that Jiang Gao's cheeks were slightly flushed and beads of sweat were climbing up his eyebrows.

If you look closely, you'll see his ears are pink.

"Yeah." Jiang Gao took off his coat without showing any emotion, leaving only a thin half-sleeved shirt after the game.

His arms are very white, and his seemingly thin long arms are not lacking in strength. He holds the mobile phone in one hand, leaning on the table to type. The thumb pressing down pulls the muscles in the wrist, and the blue veins are stretched, making him look particularly charming.

While I was taking off my clothes, Lin Yueqin had already sent me a new message: [What are you eating? Hot pot, right?]

Jiang Gao Xuyou: [It should be, they seemed to be booking a place just now]

Lin Yueqin looked at the words in front of her, remembered something, and frowned.

[Don't forget to order the Yuanyang hotpot, Chongqing hotpot is very spicy!]

After sending the message, Lin Yueqin's expression became even more solemn.

Lin Yueqin bit her lower lip in frustration, her fingertips hovering over the undo button. Why did she say that? Didn't she know? Did she treat me like a child?

Finally, she pursed her lips, afraid to withdraw and appear deliberate, and finally withdrew her finger.

Alas, Lin Yueqin sighed helplessly,

Never mind, this is also a kind of concern,

[Yes, I will], Jiang Gao's ears in front of the screen have turned from pink to apple red,

The boy who was so rebellious on the stage just now actually looks a little shy and cute now?

"Jiang Gao?" A soft call

"Hmm?" Jiang Gao subconsciously raised his head and looked away from the lit phone screen, looking at the source of the voice with a hint of confusion.

"Kacha", the FD operation sister pressed the shutter with lightning speed and captured this scene with the camera.

The boy in the white short-sleeved shirt sat on the chair properly, with his arms resting on the black tablecloth, looking a little perverse.

The young man raised his eyes, they were bright and clear.

Eighteen-year-old boy, with a handsome face,

Just sitting there quietly is enough to touch the heartstrings,

The boy is invincible!

The interview begins.

…

"Moon, you just said on stage that your goal is to be the next champion. That's already the highest honor in the esports arena, but as an individual, do you have more ideas?"

"Then let's take the FMVP." Jiang Gao nodded slightly, his calm tone showing the ambition of a young man.

Yes, Jiang Gao has always had a belief in his heart, the belief that a professional player pursues.

…

At 11 o'clock in the evening, a group of people came to a special hot pot restaurant in Chongqing.

The mountain city is also full of people at night.

When I opened the door, the aroma of hot pot entered my nose, and hot steam drifted in.

Everyone was already hungry.

"Come on, come on! Order whatever you want! The boss is treating us tonight!"

"Okay! Then we won't be polite!"

They sat at four or five tables, shoulder to shoulder, making a lot of noise all the way. It seemed like the whole restaurant was reserved by FD.

Seeing this huge group of people, the lady boss brought out four or five menus and distributed them randomly.

"Let's choose the soup base first!" The woman stood aside and took out a pen, speaking in authentic Chongqing dialect.

"What is your specialty?" the manager stood up and asked.

Hearing the standard Mandarin, the proprietress also smiled and talked about the special Chongqing Mandarin, "The specialty is definitely our nine-square red oil pot!"

"If you can handle spicy food, choose this!"

The manager nodded and looked around. He had the impression that everyone in this group could eat spicy food.

But I still asked, "Okay, you can all handle spicy food, right? Is there anyone who can't handle it?"

"Yes! Everything is possible!"

“Of course you can eat spicy food when you come to Chongqing!”

The manager turned around and met the boss lady's eyes.

Suddenly, a slightly low voice that was out of tune with the surrounding noise came from Jiang Gao's table: "Uh... our table should order Yuanyang." The voice was not loud, but it was like pressing the pause button.

The teammates who were originally looking down at the menu all raised their heads and focused their eyes on him.

Jiang Gao lowered his head and stared at the phone screen, as if the words he just heard were just an auditory hallucination.

His eyes were full of disbelief. You have to know that Jiang Gao is usually completely invisible during dinner parties. He is always silent, never expresses his own opinions, and just goes with the flow.

But he had eaten hot pot before, right? Why didn't he mention it before?

"Oh! Is there anyone who can't eat spicy food?" The manager looked away in surprise and looked at the proprietress.

"Okay, then we'll have the mandarin duck table, and the others will be the nine-square grid!"

"Okay! What would you like to order?"

"Right away! Order right away!"

Sure enough, they all took the bait, and I was determined to make a big profit today.

While waiting for the food, people were playing with their phones, browsing Weibo, watching videos, and chatting about their ideals in life.

One Wan, who was sitting next to Jiang Gao, pulled up a stool and moved closer to him: "Can't you eat spicy food?"

"I don't eat much." Jiang Gao swiped his phone.

"Then why didn't you ever tell me?"

Jiang Gao smiled and looked up at him: "Nothing much to say, the egg fried rice is also very delicious."

One Thousand was choked by his nonchalant answer. He stared at him with wide eyes for a few seconds, then took a deep breath: "Fuck! So every time I saw you busy working on egg fried rice, it wasn't because you liked it, but because you could only eat it! Damn, brother, why didn't you say so earlier!

Jiang Gao smiled softly but said nothing.

OneWan had nothing to say and just shut up, but he felt mixed emotions inside.

Jiang Gao always ordered a bowl of egg fried rice when he ate hotpot with them before. They thought he liked it, but he never said it himself.

It's really ridiculous that no one has noticed that he doesn't eat spicy food for such a long time.
