Chapter 48 Lu Cheng Becomes a Full Member
The watch that Yin Song ordered online was delivered to his home that same day.
After receiving the watch, Yin Song first tested its functions, created a WeChat account for the little guy, and after setting up some commonly used software, waved to his son.
"Baby, come here, let Mommy help you put it on."
Lu Yinzhao, her little mouth agape, ran over to Yin Song's side.
Today he was wearing a white angel children's T-shirt with a pair of personalized little wings on the back.
When it ran over, its two round little wings fluttered, which completely charmed Yin Song.
The little boy reached out his hand, and Yin Song gently helped him put the watch on his left wrist. After the strap was fastened, she patted his little head and said, "Okay, do you need Mommy to teach you how to use it?"
She asked this question because she believed her son could understand how to play it.
After all, she was a little genius who could fix computers without anyone noticing, so her sensitivity to technological products must be quite high.
"No need, Mom, I'll play by myself for a while." Lu Yinzhao's eyes were fixed on the screen, and her right hand was already tapping and swiping on it.
It doesn't have many functions; he just wants to use it for communication, so WeChat is enough.
He already has the red watch; the blue one will have to wait until Bian Ji gets home from school today before he can give it to him.
"Mom, I want to add everyone in our family." Lu Yinzhao saw that Yin Song's WeChat was completely empty, with no friends at all, so she walked up to Yin Song and looked up to say this.
"Okay, honey, try sending voice messages to your older brothers and sisters after you add them."
"Um!"
Yin Song sent a message directly to the family group chat.
[Yin Song]: [WeChat Personal Profile]
[Yin Song]: This is Zhao Zhao's WeChat ID. Please accept it quickly, don't keep Zhao Zhao waiting. @All Members
[Lu Cheng]: Huh? Zhao Zhao has a WeChat account now? Does that mean I can message him every day from now on?
[Lu Yuan]: Received.
[Lu Qi]: Okay! I'll add it right away!
Lu Xun hasn't posted anything, probably because he's too busy with work.
Lu Cheng wasn't home today either. After returning to Xingbei City, he went to the club for emergency training to prepare for the upcoming matches.
Soon after, several avatars appeared on Lu Yinzhao's watch.
He clicked on each one, and they were all voice messages sent to him.
I guess they were worried he wouldn't be able to read the text.
[Lu Qi]: "Baby, baby, I'm here."
[Lu Cheng]: "Zhao Zhao, guess—guess—who am I?"
Lu Cheng deliberately spoke in a strained voice, making his voice sound unlike his own, but Lu Yinzhao could still recognize it as his.
He pressed the voice button one by one to speak and reply to them.
[Zhaozhao]: "Second sister, the baby has been received."
[Zhao Zhao]: "Let me guess, is it my fourth brother who's incredibly good at video games?"
Yin Song burst out laughing, clutching his stomach. "Zhao Zhao, if you praise your fourth brother like that, he's probably ecstatic right now."
Sure enough, the words of praise hit Lu Cheng's sweet spot.
Guys like him who love to show off just enjoy being praised for their gaming skills.
...
At this moment, in the training room of the UPW team.
Lu Cheng leaned back in his gaming chair, in a good mood, and kept sending messages to Lu Yinzhao.
"Zhaozhao, you're so eloquent, say more, Fourth Brother loves to hear it."
As soon as Lu Cheng sent the voice message, someone outside shouted, "What are you doing? The coach wants us to have a meeting! Stop playing on your phone! Hurry up, it seems like there's something very important to announce."
"Okay, Cheng-ge, I'm coming right now." Lu Cheng didn't dare to delay and quickly put away his phone and followed.
The person who came to call him was one of the official team members, a support player named Su Haocheng, who was only three years older than him and the official team member with the smallest age gap with Lu Cheng.
He and Su Haocheng would unconsciously get closer to each other.
Lu Cheng jogged a few steps, reached out and hooked her arm around Su Haocheng's neck, "What's going on? Why are you all so serious?"
"I don't know either. I just saw that the coach and captain looked pretty bad when I passed by the meeting room."
"The coach and captain had a private meeting?"
"Maybe, don't ask anymore, you'll know when you get there." Su Haocheng slapped the kid's hand away and shook his head helplessly.
There were already four people seated in the meeting room.
When Su Haocheng brought Lu Cheng over, everyone looked up and focused their attention on Lu Cheng.
Lu Cheng was completely bewildered by the stare.
He subconsciously looked up and touched his face, then wiped the corner of his eye.
Seriously? Everyone's looking at him. Did he not wipe the sleep from his eyes?
The usually arrogant boy wouldn't allow something like this to happen, so he quickly did some facial cleanup.
"Xiao Cheng, come sit here." Coach Zheng looked towards the door.
Lu Cheng didn't dare to move, pointing to his own nose, "Coach, are you... talking to me?"
"Otherwise, who else could it be?"
“Coach, you forgot? There’s also Cheng-ge. The last character of his name sounds the same as mine. Are you sure you didn’t call him… Xiao Cheng?” Lu Cheng winked.
Coach Zheng: "..."
Su Haocheng: "..."
He knew this kid could always break the deadlock when things were tense.
Su Haocheng really admired Lu Cheng's personality of never being afraid of embarrassment, probably because he was young.
"Alright! Stop talking nonsense and come here. I have something to tell you," Coach Zheng said impatiently.
"Phew..." Lu Cheng exhaled and patted his chest. "That's more like it. This is the tone you should use to address me, Coach Zheng. You called me 'Xiao Cheng' so gently just now, it almost gave me goosebumps."
After all, Coach Zheng is either scolding him or on his way to scold him, so why would he speak to him so politely?
"You're not happy even when I treat you well, are you?" Coach Zheng was so angry he laughed. This kid is just too thick-skinned and deserves a beating.
"No, no, I was just a little surprised." Lu Cheng sat down with a smile, softening her tone.
After looking around, he realized that someone seemed to be missing.
"Coach, where's Feng Nian?" Lu Cheng asked. "Isn't he supposed to be in a meeting?"
"I called you here to talk about this."
"?"
"Feng Nian had a family emergency, so he can't participate in this Spring Tournament."
"Huh?!" Lu Cheng suddenly stood up, making quite a commotion.
Su Haocheng, who was standing to the side, pressed him down again, saying, "Calm down."
"So, in this competition, you need to take his place." Coach Zheng looked at the boy in front of him seriously.
"..." Lu Cheng's mind was in a mess.
Although he had always wanted to become a full-fledged team member, he did not want to enter in this way.
He knew that the main players had trained together countless times for this competition, and their teamwork in all aspects had reached a very high level.
A sudden substitution before the match...
This would be a significant crisis for any club, wouldn't it?
"What's with that expression? Haven't you been saying all along that you don't want to be a substitute and want to be a regular player? Now I'm giving you that chance." Coach Zheng patted the boy on the shoulder.
Lu Cheng kept his head down and didn't say anything.
Everyone assumed that Lu Cheng was feeling uncertain because of the sudden change in personnel, so they all comforted him.
Captain Tao Xiangyu said gently, "Lu Cheng, just go on the field as you usually do in training. You played very well when you played with us last year."
“Yes, don’t be nervous, we’ll all practice with you,” Jiang Yuanbai said.
"There's still a week until the competition, there's still time," Yi Jing said.
The coach comforted him, saying, "I will adjust the training plan specifically for you. We are the champion team, don't you trust me?"
While everyone else was talking, Su Haocheng remained silent.
He always felt that the kid didn't mean it that way...
"Coach, are you sure you want me to play?"
"Yes, I'm sure! Didn't I just say I'm giving you this chance?"
"Oh, then you'd better be prepared." Lu Cheng stroked his chin.
"It's okay, even if we lose..."
"No, Coach, what I meant was that you should be prepared to protect me, because after the competition, my abilities will no longer be hidden, and teams will be coming to me for transfers. If you don't find a way to keep me, I'll be snatched away by someone else! Hahahaha!"
Coach Zheng: "..."
Su Haocheng: "..." He knew it.
How could someone who lives on confidence be afraid of such a formal competition?
The bigger the competition, the more excited Lu Cheng will become, okay?
The coach still doesn't understand Lu Cheng well enough.
Coach Zheng was silent for a moment, then turned his head and laughed, scolding, "You kid... if you have that ability, then throw the championship trophy at me this year. I'd like to see how other clubs fight over you."
At this point, Coach Zheng had not yet realized the importance of the matter; he only thought that Lu Cheng was encouraging himself and everyone else.
"Starting today, we'll begin grueling training. Put everything else aside and focus on the competition. Come on, everyone, let's shout a slogan together! Are you confident?"
"have--!"
Lu Cheng shouted the loudest, and the group put their hands together, "UPW! Let's win the championship together! Victory! Victory! Victory!"

On the other side.
Lu Yinzhao had been waiting for Bian Ji to come home from school.
Bian Ji brought a bag from home.
"This is the camera I promised to give you." Bian Ji handed over the bag.
Lu Yinzhao: "Thank you, Brother Aji. I also have something to give you."
The little guy handed over a box from the coffee table, saying, "Here you go, brother!"
"This is……"
"A phone watch!" Lu Yinzhao smiled sweetly. "This will make it easier for us to make phone calls in the future. Brother, you should get a WeChat account too. This is mine, and we can add each other as friends!"
Bian Ji saw the red watch on the little guy's wrist and immediately understood.
"Okay, I'll add you as soon as I get back." Bian Ji had a good memory and quickly remembered Lu Yinzhao's WeChat ID.
At that moment, Lu Yinzhao also opened his gift.
This camera is a bit heavier to hold, and its black and gray color gives it a particularly high-quality look under the light.
Lu Yinzhao hung the camera strap around his neck and took several pictures of Bian Ji.
I adjusted the lighting and took a few more pictures from a different angle.
"Brother, how do you think the photo turned out? Doesn't it make you look really good?"
Lu Yinzhao showed the camera to Bian Ji.
The other person looked at themselves on the screen with some surprise, "Very good."

Author's Note: Later, when Lu Cheng was tempted by other clubs with high transfer fees and signing bonuses...
Coach Zheng: ? ? ? I'm still alive? You want to steal me? [Cracks]
Lu Cheng: Hurry up, Coach, come and flatter me. [Sunglasses] (Smugly)
