Chapter 15 Surprise
Qi Ji was a little puzzled. How did someone with this IQ get to the position of club manager?
As if looking at Xiao Chou, his cold eyes were rarely ridiculed.
"Dream on. If you lose, you should lie down and let others ridicule you. This is the rule of e-sports."
Of course, he hated and opposed all cyber violence, but e-sports was so unreasonable. The winner is the king and the loser is the enemy. This is how they have been for so many years.
Not to mention that Yuan Zhuo did it for him, even if it was not for him, he had no right to ask him to apologize to the club.
Seeing that he was so stubborn, the manager was so angry that he didn't know what to say. In a fit of rage, he pointed at Qi Ji and said viciously.
"Okay, as long as he doesn't apologize, you won't be able to play!"
He just didn't believe it. Couldn't he cure a 24-year-old kid?
Over the years, Qi Ji had never had such a conflict with the management.
In the past, they were a whole. Although there were difficulties in the process, they had always been working in the same direction. At
this moment, he even wanted to ask Zhuo Yu why he handed the club over to such people?
Do they really understand e-sports?
Will they really respect e-sports and respect everyone's efforts and dreams?
Can he still achieve his goals here?
For the first time, Qi Ji's doubts grew bigger and bigger.
For the first time, he also chose to go against his club.
"Okay."
After saying that, he turned around and left, not giving anyone a chance to speak.
This time was originally the training time that Qi Ji set for himself. Although there have been many problems in the club recently, he did not slack off. Instead, in order to stabilize his mind, he added an extra hour of training time.
In the past, no matter what happened, he would not change his training plan at will, because training not only allows him to stay in good shape, but also exists like his belief and sedative.
As long as he immerses himself in HOW, no matter how many negative emotions he has, they will disappear unconsciously, and the monster that has been hiding in the black mist will not have the opportunity to attack him.
But now, for the first time in his life, Qi Ji actually doesn't want to go to training this time.
He dragged heavy steps back to his room. Without taking off his clothes, he lay directly on the bed to empty himself, hoping to calm down.
But the effect was not as effective as before. Chaotic thoughts kept active and jumping in his brain. His body seemed very tired and he didn't want to move at all.
The monster in the black mist appeared again without warning, ready to tear and devour him like every time.
In the past, facing this situation, Qi Ji would empty himself briefly as if punishing himself, letting the darkness devour him, but soon he would force himself to struggle and take medicine.
But this time, a whole hour had passed and he didn't move at all.
All the bad memories from the past swarmed towards him. Pain and despair began to tear at his flesh and spirit. His head felt like it was being pricked by needles and his breathing slowly became heavy.
In a trance, he seemed to see the monster in the black mist transform into two familiar figures that had become blurred by time. They were waving at him.
Looking at the hands that kept waving at him in the mist, Qi Ji climbed up from the bed with some effort, dragging his heavy steps towards the window step by step.
Through the clear window, Qi Ji "saw" very clearly.
They are waiting for me.
The hand on the glass unconsciously rested on the windowsill, as if ready to pull open this barrier...
...
and at this moment, the mobile phone in his pocket suddenly vibrated.
Suddenly coming back to his senses, Qi Ji seemed to see the black mist slowly dispersing from his body, but the monster hidden in the black mist did not completely leave, as if it was still trying to find an opportunity to drag him into the abyss.
Taking out his mobile phone, Yuan Zhuo's mobile phone number was jumping on the screen, and Qi Ji's consciousness seemed to gradually return.
After answering the call, that bright and familiar voice rang in his ears.
"Brother, you are not angry, are you? My Weibo post was not directed at you, but at your lousy management and your lousy soul-replenishing method."
Yuan Zhuo's purpose of suddenly making this call was certainly not to really apologize for the Weibo incident. In fact, he didn't think he was wrong. Even if time went back, he would still choose to do so.
In fact, if it weren't for Qi Ji, he would have scolded even more harshly. He would not allow anyone to bully his baby.
Back to the point, he came to him because he just learned from Fu Duo that Qi Ji had quarreled with the team manager.
The monster in the black mist had not completely left yet. With a wooden head, Qi Ji only responded instinctively.
"No."
Yuan Zhuo never regretted anything he had done. Instead of regretting and complaining, he was more accustomed to thinking about solutions to problems at the first time.
After thinking for a while, he asked tentatively.
"Brother, how about I apologize?"
He certainly didn't want to apologize. He had never been so humble to anyone since he was a child.
He didn't think this was the best way to solve the problem, but it was undoubtedly the most direct way to solve the problem. He just wasn't sure whether it would work.
But if it helps, he can.
He is willing to do anything for him as long as his baby is happy.
Of course, this does not mean that he will not make up for it from other places in the future. There are really not many people who can get the advantage from the Yuan family.
Thinking of Yuan Zhuo who was half lying on the sofa in the base lounge, his eyes overflowed with a bit of coldness and sharpness that did not belong to this young boy.
Qi Ji's reply was very straightforward.
"No need."
"They just want to suppress me. If it's not your business, there will be others."
Qi Ji is indeed not good at socializing, but it does not mean that he can't see the truth.
Since the club changed the new owner and management, he has seen everything that has happened.
He had compromised, and the management let Xin Hunfa play in his place without any plan, and he agreed.
The season was about to start, and they broke the convention and asked him to shoot a commercial, and he agreed.
He thought that as long as he made a little concession, the management and the players would be able to get along well as soon as possible, and everyone would work together to fight in the new season as before.
But after this period of time, he found that everything was different from what he imagined.
They didn't seem to care about the results, and didn't understand the difficulty and hardship of e-sports, which Qi Ji couldn't accept.
He would not compromise for the third time.
But this didn't mean that Qi Ji really gave up.
He was gambling, gambling that this team couldn't do without him.
He believed that as long as this team still wanted to achieve results, they would not continue to stalemate with him.
He knew his own strength and condition very well, and he was also very clear that the soul-replenishing method did not require any talent, or even hard work.
All he had was arrogance and contempt for e-sports, and such a person could not always replace him.
It's just... when will he have to play this kind of game with his own team.
The monster that was just about to evacuate seemed to want to take the opportunity to bite him again, but it seemed to be very afraid of the boy on the other end of the phone. As soon as the boy's voice rang, it retreated unwillingly.
"There must be a solution, believe me, brother."
Qi Ji naturally never thought of relying on an 18-year-old boy to solve this problem, or he never thought of relying on anyone.
But staring blankly at his hand on the windowsill, a faint light of fire still crossed his heart, which had been wrapped in darkness.
Although it was very faint, the monster seemed to be really afraid of fire. It just roared unwillingly and disappeared completely.
As the monster disappeared, Qi Ji's thoughts became clearer, and he began to remind Yuan Zhuo from the perspective of an elder.
"Well, thank you, but don't do this in the future."
Even if Yuan Zhuo is not from their club, players cannot compete with capital.
What if the management of MG wants to use this incident as an opportunity to establish a relationship with GF?
It doesn't matter if he suffers this grievance, but what if it affects Yuan Zhuo's future?
He is still so young and so talented, he doesn't want him to be affected by his affairs.
Up to this moment, Qi Ji did not realize that in addition to his own goals, he seemed to have people and things he cared about.
And this person, and the things about this person, will be like sparks in the future, gradually spreading like wildfire and completely saving him.
Yuan Zhuo dared to do this, of course he had already prepared himself not to be punished or affected.
He has the capital, and as for what this capital is, he will tell his baby at the most appropriate time.
At this moment, he only thinks that it’s great that my brother cares about me!
But the most important thing now is not to make him happy, but to make his baby happy.
Although he didn’t say anything, Yuan Zhuo knew that he must be very uncomfortable and unhappy now, otherwise he would not have chatted with him during training time.
They no longer talked about this matter, and chatted about random things. Yuan Zhuo even used his best skills, acting cute in various ways, just hoping that Qi Ji could relax and be happier.
Miraculously, Qi Ji's mood really improved because of this. While chatting with Yuan Zhuo, he took out the medicine from the drawer and swallowed it without hesitation.
And then, in Yuan Zhuo's energetic voice, he rarely relaxed and fell into a deep sleep during the time when he should have been training...
When he woke up again, he was awakened by a series of ringing phones.
Seeing Yuan Zhuo's phone call, he drowsily pressed the answer button without being fully awake.
"Huh?"
"Brother, come down!" It
was already two o'clock in the morning, and his voice was still so energetic that Qi Ji couldn't help but start to wake up.
"What?"
"Come downstairs, I'll give you a surprise."
Qi Ji didn't want to move, but he guessed that the kid might have done something to comfort him, maybe a delicious takeaway or a gift?
Not wanting to waste his kindness, he put on his coat and walked downstairs slowly.
As soon as he walked out of the door, he saw a big surprise...
