Chapter 761 One Last Person Required
Guo Yu's face turned from green to red, and then turned completely black as Bai Lianghe walked away.
His fists clenched involuntarily. He never expected that his confident invitation would turn into an assist for Shen Xing.
"Oh……"
He suddenly let out a cold laugh. Fine, since the two of them have come together, then let's settle the score all at once.
"What exactly happened?"
In the cafeteria, Shen Xing excitedly looked at Bai Lianghe and asked, "Is it Guo Yu? Is it him?"
Bai Lianghe rolled his eyes with a smile and nodded, saying, "Yes, I've never seen such an annoying person."
She told the others what had just happened outside the cafeteria, and Jiang Ran frowned as she listened: "Trying to steal a chicken but losing the rice instead, Guo Yu is really funny."
Bai Lianghe explained, "But it wasn't entirely because he bothered me. I was seriously considering it myself, but he gave me a push in the end and helped me make the decision."
Jiang Ran kindly reminded him, "But Guo Yu is a very vengeful person. He has held a grudge ever since Shen Xing embarrassed him once, and he is always going against Shen Xing. You are definitely remembered by him now, and he might haunt you like a ghost in the future."
Bai Lianghe curled his lip indifferently and said disdainfully, "Whatever, I'll teach him a lesson on the field."
"Shen Xing!" Bai Lianghe suddenly looked at him with a serious expression: "We can't lose, or Guo Yu will laugh us to death!"
"There's no way we can lose!" Shen Xing glared and assured him, "I can't guarantee anything else, but in this game, even if I give him a one-handed win, he can't lose."
With such a powerful presence, Bai Lianghe felt reassured.
"So what stage is the team at right now? Are all the members together?"
"Not yet, we're still missing one person." Shen Xing smiled sheepishly, then introduced Mu Jin to Bai Lianghe so they could get to know each other.
"She's the support, you're the marksman, you two are duo lane partners."
In this game, the marksman and the support are one entity. The marksman is the core damage dealer of the team, while the support is the team's support, but the most important task is to protect the marksman and create a good output environment for the marksman.
"Hibiscus? I think I've lined up with you before!" Bai Lianghe felt that the name Hibiscus sounded familiar; she had a vague recollection of it.
Mu Jin smiled upon hearing this: "I do many live streams every day, so I might not remember them all."
"You two are about the same rank, so it's normal that you've been matched together before."
Bai Lianghe then looked at Shen Xing: "There's one official team member left. Is there anyone to choose from?"
"Not yet." Shen Xing looked troubled. "If we lower our standards, it would be easy to find someone. There are many people in the e-sports club, but I don't want to lower my standards. I think every member of a team is important. At the very least, their technical skills and awareness should be on the same level, or at least not too far apart."
The others nodded in agreement, clearly agreeing with Shen Xing's point of view.
"Then let's take our time looking. Better to have nothing than something bad. If we can't make it in the Spring Split, we'll try again in the Summer Split. That'll give us a few months to gel, and then we can make a splash!"
Bai Lianghe wasn't in a hurry, and Mu Jin was even less in a hurry.
She also wanted to hone her mental skills, and even if she didn't participate in the Spring Tournament, she would still get paid every month, so it made no difference to her.
"OK, I will definitely find the person who is most suitable for our team!"

In the evening, Shen Jingjing finished her work early, put on her coat, picked up her bag, and walked to the teahouse at the intersection.
Fei Yunzong was already waiting at his seat. When he saw Shen Jingjing arrive, he quickly stood up and said, "I didn't ask for a private room. I remember you like to sit by the window."
Shen Jingjing smiled and nodded, then gracefully took off her coat and sat down.
"I ordered a pot of chamomile tea, and I won't feel heavy when I go to sleep after drinking it."
Fei Yunzong gently placed a cup of tea in front of Shen Jingjing, looked at her and smiled: "Jingjing, I have something very important to tell you today."
"Yunzong, there's actually something between us..."
"Jingjing, can you let me finish what I have to say first?" Fei Yunzong interrupted Shen Jingjing, or rather, he knew what Shen Jingjing was about to say and didn't want her to say it.
Shen Jingjing pursed her lips, but finally nodded: "Okay, you go first."
Fei Yunzong slowly exhaled before speaking, "I know that Fei Cheng's matter caused you a lot of trouble and problems before. The reason why you and I had to give up was because of Fei Cheng's opposition."
“I have listened carefully to what you said before. I know you have a point. I have never thought of pestering you. You know I am not that kind of person.”
"But... feelings are truly beyond our control. They are subconscious reactions stemming from instinct and our true feelings. I can't control them, and I... don't want to control them either."
At this point, Fei Yunzong suddenly revealed a relieved smile: "Fortunately, Fei Cheng is no longer against us. Jingjing, I really beg you to give us another chance."
At first, Shen Jingjing thought Fei Yunzong was expressing his affection for her in the same way as before, but when she heard the last sentence, she couldn't help but stare in surprise.
"You're not objecting anymore?"
Shen Jingjing was puzzled because Fei Cheng's previous reaction was very extreme, as if he was very resistant to Fei Yunzong's remarriage.
Shen Jingjing didn't think that a child like this would suddenly stop objecting; it was too abnormal.
"Why did you suddenly stop objecting?" Shen Jingjing asked directly.
Fei Yunzong didn't hide anything. Although he found the whole process difficult to talk about, he still told Shen Jingjing.
The reason is that Fei Cheng recently started dating a girl he liked. Fei Yunzong thought of using opposition to make his son experience the helplessness he felt back then. But he didn't just oppose his son's relationship. He also stopped his son's credit card and even put his son on unpaid leave at the company, squeezing his emotional and financial space in every way.
It is even more thorough than using their own methods against them.
"I just wanted him to understand one thing: once freedom is taken away, a person loses everything. It's not a pleasant feeling to be unable to control one's own destiny."
Shen Jingjing listened to Fei Yunzong's words and remained silent for a few seconds, then silently shook her head: "Yunzong, do not do to others what you would not have them do to you, especially since he is your son."
"Besides, the result you obtained through this method was not something he truly gave you. I think you should know that better than I do."
“Jingjing, I don’t care whether he truly supports me or not, as long as he doesn’t resort to extreme measures to oppose me like before. He’s grown up and has his own life to live, and I also want to pursue the life I want. We can leave each other alone.”
Fei Yunzong earnestly promised, "Jingjing, I promise you, he won't do anything bad to you again."
