Three Side Stories Ending
Four years later.
Inside the TWG home stadium in City A, the atmosphere was electric. Commentator A enthusiastically shouted, "Let's congratulate TWG on winning the regional championship once again!"
Commentator D exclaimed, "I have to admit that TWG's strength is just too great and solid. In today's match, the entire team had no weaknesses or mistakes, and they won the game 3-0 without any doubt."
Commentator A said: "Yes, when TWG's former captain Shining announced his retirement, everyone was speculating whether TWG's performance would decline. However, TWG has now proven to us with three consecutive regional championships and two Mid-Season Invitational trophies that the veterans of TWG are not dead and the torch is being passed on!"
Commentator D said, "That's right. Okay, the director told us that the players are ready for the interview. Today, we have with us TWG's current captain, Ice!"
Amid cheers and screams, Xu Ziyan brushed the confetti off her shoulders and slowly walked onto the interview area amidst a flurry of flashing lights.
Years of hardship have not diminished the youthful spirit in his eyes; on the contrary, they have added an even brighter brilliance. Having shed his naiveté, Xu Ziyan is now confident and powerful. Although he is an Omega and a healer, his stats on the data leaderboard are more impressive than many damage dealers, making him someone no one dares to underestimate.
In the underground parking lot of the venue, a snow-white Maserati was parked in an inconspicuous corner. In the driver's seat, a man in a suit smiled as he looked at the young man on his phone screen who was answering the host's questions earnestly. On his ring finger, a diamond ring sparkled.
Shortly after, footsteps sounded, then the car door opened, and a figure squeezed into the passenger seat.
Xu Ziyan took off her team uniform jacket, glanced at her phone and saw her own interview on it, blushing: "Why are you still looking at this?"
"Can't I watch my darling's interview a couple more times?" Xie Wei smiled and leaned over to kiss the corner of his lips. "You've worked hard this season."
The two had formed a permanent bond. Now, smelling his lover's pheromones, Xu Ziyan couldn't hold back any longer and opened his mouth to kiss him back. His hand hesitated for a moment on Xie Wei's suit jacket, but he still didn't put it inside.
After all, it wasn't at home, but in a parking lot. If they were actually filmed, it would all be over.
Xie Wei looked at him and smiled: "Where is the celebration banquet being held today? I'll take you there."
"I don't want to go to Yunxiang's place," Xu Ziyan nestled in Xie Wei's arms.
Just an hour ago, the person who dominated the field and commanded the world was now nestled in his arms, obedient and docile, her voice soft and sweet as she whined. Such a contrast would be irresistible to anyone.
Xie Wei kissed him: "If you don't want to go, then you don't have to go."
Xu Ziyan sighed, "I can't not go." He looked up at his Alpha with teary eyes.
Xie Wei understood his meaning, smiled, raised her fingers, gently brushed the stray hairs from the back of the young man's neck, and said in a hoarse voice, "Yan Yan, turn around."
Xu Ziyan nodded slightly and turned around as instructed. Xie Wei wrapped one arm tightly around his waist, and with the other hand, her thumb and forefinger gripped his neck.
The car was filled with the scent of mint and strawberry. "...Shall I take you there now?"
Xu Ziyan snapped out of her daze: "Are you coming?"
"Me?" Xie Wei chuckled. "Would it be appropriate for me to go?"
Xu Ziyan said, "What's inappropriate about it? Actually, many teams will be playing today, and many retired players will also be here."
Xie Wei smiled and asked, "Shen Xiao and Bai Chen?"
"Yes, Qingyue and Li Huanbin are also here, and Propro and the others are coming too." Xu Ziyan smiled. "All my close friends will be here."
TWG won the championship, so they shouldn't have invited so many players from other teams, especially retired players from those teams.
Xie Wei's heart skipped a beat: "You...you want to retire?"
"Yes." Xu Ziyan admitted frankly, "The team will make an official announcement after this World Championship."
That would be two months from now.
Xie Wei said, "You're only twenty-three."
Xu Ziyan smiled and shook his head: "No, one reason is that my performance has declined, and the kids waiting to take over my position are good enough, so I don't want to take up my spot. Another reason is... Xie Wei, it's you."
Xie Wei's eyes widened suddenly, and he looked at Xu Ziyan with surprise and disbelief. "Really?"
For a moment, Xie Weizhen couldn't describe the feelings welling up in his heart. He gazed at his lover for a long time, and could only tighten his arms and pull her into his embrace: "Yan Yan... I love you."
Xu Ziyan kissed his brow: "I love you too."

Upon arriving in Yunxiang, Xu Ziyan, the protagonist, received a grand welcome.
Bai Ke was dressed casually today, but his slender waist and long legs still couldn't be hidden. He greeted us with a smile: "Three consecutive championships to dominate the region, no wonder you are called the Ice God."
As she spoke, Bai Ke picked up two glasses of champagne from the tray held by the waiter behind her: "Come on, protagonist, have a drink?"
He had just handed out the wine when Xie Wei stepped forward and took the wine glass from his hand: "I'm sorry, Yan... Ice can't drink today, so I'll drink for him."
Bai Ke was taken aback. She looked at Xu Ziyan, then at Xie Wei, her expression first strange and then understanding: "Since God Xie has spoken, there's naturally nothing that can't be done."
"Cough cough cough."
Seeing that the conversation was heading in the wrong direction, Shen Xiao, who had been secretly eavesdropping for a while, quickly coughed to remind him.
Bai Ke turned around and rolled her eyes: "Why are you, an Alpha, eavesdropping on our BO conversation?"
“Tsk, what are you saying?” Shen Xiao retorted, “Whose boyfriend isn’t an Alpha?”
Bai Ke choked for once, which was rare for her: "...You're amazing, okay?"
Shen Xiao won this utterly pointless conversation and turned to Xu Ziyan, saying, "Congratulations."
"No, I should be congratulating you." Xu Ziyan smiled. "I heard that your wedding with Li Huanbin is next month. But I'll probably be abroad then and won't be able to go."
Shen Xiao didn't mind and laughed, "It's alright, the thought is what counts. But when are you two having your wedding?"
Xu Ziyan said, "The World Championship is postponed."
Shen Xiao nodded, then turned to ask, "Where's KK?"
Bai Ke said, "My brother said he would do it, but I don't really care. Anyway, I'll have to wait until I retire this year."
"So you're both from after the World Championships?" Shen Xiao suggested, "Why don't you two hold it together? I can pay less."
Xu Ziyan's eyes lit up: "It's actually not impossible."
Bai Ke also thought it was a good idea, waved her hand, and turned to discuss it with Bai Chen.
Shen Xiao saw Li Huanbin park his car and walk up, so he left first. Xie Wei came up after they finished talking and took Xu Ziyan's hand.
Xu Ziyan looked at him with a gentle smile.
Amidst the clinking of glasses and the cacophony of voices around them, they gazed at each other, their eyes fixed solely on one another.
Before I met you, my heart was like a rootless duckweed, drifting aimlessly with nowhere to go.
After meeting you, I finally found my way home.
From then on, I was no longer alone.
