Wandering circus meeting room.

Wang Shun opened the panel, which displayed various data while clearly explaining the next steps:

"We have now achieved a staged victory and the pre-season is coming to an end. Our next opponents are all high-ranking teams. Although their fighting power is not as good as that of the Furious Lambs, we should not take it lightly."

As he was speaking, Bai Liu pushed the door open and walked in. He walked straight to the chair at the front, turned around and sat down, then raised his hand to signal Wang Shun to continue.

Wang Shun nodded to Bai Liu and continued to explain: "President Bai, Captain Tang and I have discussed this and feel that you have almost reached the point of training and running-in. The next focus of your league will be the team competition."

Bai Liu turned around, leaned back in his chair, stretched out his hand and tapped the table in front of the dozing Mu Sicheng: "Do you know what the focus of the team competition is?"

Mu Sicheng was sleeping with his head drooping. He was injured while playing the game and had spent a lot of energy. He was now exhausted. He woke up after being called by Bai Liu. He looked at Bai Liu in a daze: "...cooperation consciousness?"

"No." Wang Shun looked at Mu Sicheng worriedly, "It's energy, Mu Shen."

"Next, you will not only play a single match, a double match, but also a team match. And unlike the training in the game pool and the small preseason games before, the intensity of the two-person match will be basically comparable to today's double match."

"Unlike your mental and physical strength, which can be restored by drugs, your consciousness is kept in a very tense state during this high-intensity battle. This is very exhausting, and it will also make you feel tired, and your condition will decline sharply."

Wang Shun looked at Bai Liu with concern: "President, after playing two games against strong teams in a row, the energy of newcomers like Mu Shen may not be able to keep up. We need to discuss the order of the battle carefully."

"I came back mainly to discuss this with you." Bai Liu crossed his arms in front of him, "Liu Jiayi is the most important player in the team competition. She needs to maintain her form, and her skills are not suitable for singles and doubles competitions, so she will only participate in team competitions."

"Mu Ke, when you are in good shape, you can play a singles match, and Mu Sicheng and I can play a doubles match."

Bai Liu raised his eyes and looked at everyone: "The fixed players for the singles competition are usually me and Captain Tang, and the fixed pairing for the doubles competition is me and Mu Sicheng. Do you have any opinions?"

Tang Erda was the first to nod: "I'm fine with it. I have no objection."

"I have an opinion." Mu Sicheng immediately objected.

"You are the regular player in the singles competition, and you are also the regular pairing in the doubles competition. Are you also the tactician in the team competition?" Mu Sicheng's brows were twisted into knots. "No, Bai Liu, you said that we newcomers can't keep up with the energy after playing two games in a row. You are also a newcomer. Can you keep up with the energy after playing three games in a row?"

He had just fought such a battle, and after being hit by the skills of Yang Zhi and Kong Xuyang, Mu Sicheng's head was still buzzing. His eyelids drooped as soon as he got off the field, and he just wanted to sleep. He didn't need to think about how deep the damage to the player's consciousness would be caused by those more outrageous skills in the future.

Bai Liuqiang fought for three games, that guy must be so tired.

When Mu Sicheng said this, Tang Er was stunned and relaxed for a moment.

He didn't think there was anything wrong with this arrangement at the time, because in other world lines, Bai Liu also played three games in a row all year round. But now think about it, Bai Liu is still a pure rookie who is playing in the league for the first year. Playing three games in a row against a strong team is indeed a bit absurd.

Even if he were to take over, he might not be able to maintain his form for three games.

Liu Jiayi made a suggestion: "I have no objection to my allocation, but Bai Liu's allocation has a big problem. I won't talk about the singles match. In terms of skills, it is indeed Mu Ke. You and Tang Er are suitable for rotating against three people with offensive skills, but there is no need for you and Mu Sicheng to form a fixed combination in the doubles match."

Mu Ke thought: "For the doubles match, can I or Mu Sicheng be the fixed team, and the other team members can rotate, is this okay?"

"But Mu Sicheng's coordination is not enough to support the rotation of other players." Bai Liu analyzed calmly, "I am the only fixed player in the doubles game. I can cooperate with everyone."

"But Tang Erda and Mu Ke will rotate in the singles match, so it is most appropriate to choose Mu Sicheng as my double partner."

Liu Jiayi pursed her lips, unable to refute.

In fact, everyone knew that the plan proposed by Bai Liu was the best, but at the same time, it was also the most costly for Bai Liu himself.

"If you don't have any other opinions." Bai Liu stood up and announced the decision calmly, "Then the tactical arrangement will be decided. Everyone is very tired today, so go back and rest first."

Everyone had objections in their hearts, but when they saw the dark circles under Bai Liu's eyes and the tired look on his face, they swallowed their objections back.

...The most tired person today is Bai Liu, he really needs a good rest.

Wang Shun couldn't help but glance at Bai Liu.

In fact, Bai Liu had decided on this appearance arrangement before. Wang Shun strongly opposed it at that time, but was easily convinced by Bai Liu in a few words. In the end, Wang Shun had no choice but to retort that other team members would not agree.

Bai Liu just smiled and said they would agree.

At that time, Wang Shun thought it was unlikely. These team members were still very worried about Bai Liu and would never let him waste himself like this. As a result, when things came to this, Bai Liu took advantage of the team members' worry about him and downplayed the matter.

Wang Shun sighed as he sorted out the paperwork in his hands.

It's like this again. On the surface, he's discussing things with them, but it's still President Bai who has decided everything on his own.

I don't know who can make this overly self-centered tactician change his mind.

When Bai Liu and his group logged out of the game, night had already fallen in the real world.

Du Sanying did not log into the game to watch this competition because he had forgotten about it. He only remembered it when he saw Bai Liu returning home.

Du Sanying bowed 180 degrees to Bai Liu crazily, and said in panic: "I'm sorry, Mr. Bai Liu! I really forgot!"

"It doesn't matter." Bai Liu took off his tie and hung it on the hanger as he entered the house. He smiled at Du Sanying and said, "We won. What did you eat today?"

In Bai Liu's words, winning was mentioned so simply, as if winning was a trivial matter to him, as easy and natural as three meals a day.

Du Sanying was naturally led away by Bai Liu. He began to try to recall what he had eaten: "I had beef noodles in the morning and a roast goose lunch box at noon."

"Haven't you eaten yet?" Bai Liu lay on the sofa, took out his cell phone from his suit pants, and looked lazily back at Du Sanying, "How about I treat you to hot pot?"

Because Bai Liu took off his tie, from Du Sanying's perspective, he could see that Bai Liu's Adam's apple hidden under the first button of his shirt slid slightly up and down, his collarbone and spine were loosely extended, his shoulders and neck drooped to fit the sofa, and his eyes were half closed.

Du Sanying was stunned by Bai Liu's posture.

For some reason, Du Sanying felt that Mr. Bai Liu was very relaxed today and seemed to be in a good mood.

Is it because you won the game?

But Mr. Bai Liu didn’t seem to be like this when he won the competition before…

Bai Liu tilted his head and looked at Du Sanying, shaking the phone in his hand: "Do you want to eat? If you want to eat, I will call others to join you."

Du Sanying was flattered and said, "No, it doesn't cost money, does it?"

"It's not expensive." Bai Liu smiled, "Then I'll call someone?"

Less than a second later, Du Sanying heard Bai Liu calling him: "Lu Yizhan, are you off work?"

Du Sanying vaguely heard the other side say something complaining about overtime, and Bai Liu smiled.

"Old Lu, I won the game against the Furious Lamb." Bai Liu lowered her eyelids and casually mentioned, "Let's celebrate today. Shall we go to your house for hot pot?"

Du Sanying was stunned when he heard this - he had been educated by Wang Shun and knew that it was useless to explain the things in the game to ordinary people.

Why would Mr. Bai Liu suddenly talk about things in the game with an ordinary person?

Bai Liu placed his hand on the sofa back and tapped it rhythmically with his fingers. Du Sanying couldn't help but follow him and count - seven.

After seven hits, Du Sanying heard a confused voice coming from Bai Liu's phone: "Bai Liu, what did you just say?"

Bai Liu smiled again, and that smile was very shallow, like a layer of cloud floating on his face, which would be blown away by the wind.

"Nothing." Bai Liu said, "I just remembered that I haven't had dinner with Sister Dian for a long time."

Lu Yizhan, who was standing opposite, was also silent for a moment, then smiled: "Yes, after your birthday two years ago, I don't know what happened, you seemed to have grown up suddenly, and you refused to come to my house for dinner. In the past, at least you were willing to buy two kilograms of discounted oranges to eat with me."

Lu Yizhan couldn't hide his sigh when he talked about it: "Fang Dian and I used to celebrate your birthday every year, but later you didn't want to celebrate your birthday anymore."

"Come to think of it, your birthday is coming soon this year, right?"

Bai Liu hummed indifferently.

Lu Yizhan's voice was a little teasing: "Why, are you feeling rejuvenated or nostalgic at 25? You finally decided to come to your sister's house for dinner and let us celebrate your birthday?"

"But it's a little early to celebrate now, let's just have a simple hot pot today." Lu Yizhan muttered, "I haven't got off work yet, you go buy the food first, Sister Dian is at home, you have our house key, buy what you want to eat, go back to your room and let Sister Dian cook for you, I'll transfer the money to you later..."

"Forget it, your sister can't cook. You two should prepare the dishes first, or wait for me to come back..."

"Lu Yizhan." Bai Liu suddenly interrupted Lu Yizhan and said, "If one day, there is a game that both you and I want to win, will you still lose to me on purpose?"

There was silence at Luyi Station for a long time, and then a very soft, almost whisper-like laugh came out: "No."

"I will do everything I can to win you, Bai Liu."
