The place chosen by Tang Muzhou has a really good environment and the interior decoration is very stylish.

It is not suitable to eat greasy food for supper, so Tang Muzhou thoughtfully ordered some warm soup and light side dishes. The private dishes are small in size, but each one is exquisite and delicious. The two of them chatted while eating, and the atmosphere was particularly warm and harmonious.

Tang Muzhou gave Xie Mingzhe a small piece of cake and asked with a smile, "I was so harsh on you today, you are not angry, right?"

Xie Mingzhe immediately waved his hands: "Everyone wants to win in the game. If you just send a random deck to fool me and let us get 2:0, I will be angry. On the contrary, you are so well prepared, which shows that you take this game very seriously. I should be happy."

To deal with it casually only shows that Brother does not take Nirvana, a new team, seriously.

Only by preparing seriously can one show the importance and recognition of Nirvana. Xie Mingzhe naturally understands this principle.

Junior brother has always been smart and sensible. Tang Muzhou smiled with satisfaction and said, "No matter how netizens tease you, your deck and tactical system are very innovative, which is indeed worthy of recognition. However, you can play freely in the regular season, but in the playoffs you can only rely on your hard power and the tacit cooperation of your teammates. You have to seize the time to practice various details."

Xie Mingzhe nodded vigorously: "I understand. We have already used nearly half of the new maps in the internal rotation. In the first round of the external rotation, we will try out the remaining maps and new decks. We will continue to practice cooperation in the second round."

Tang Muzhou agreed, "That's right. During the playoffs, all league maps are shared. For example, your map of the 'Daughter's Country' where babies are born can also be used by other clubs in the playoffs. There is no scene advantage in the playoffs. You must compete with your strength. This rule is very disadvantageous to you."

Xie Mingzhe already knew the rules of the playoffs, but he couldn't believe that other clubs would be so shameless, and couldn't help asking: "Brother, do you think other clubs will also choose the map of the Women's Kingdom in the playoffs? Aren't they afraid of being laughed at by netizens?"

Tang Muzhou touched his nose gently and said with a smile: "Don't be fooled by the appearance of those great gods. On the surface, they are more upright than each other, but in their hearts, they are more shameless than each other. After today's game, except for Ye Zhu who laughed at you in the group, the other great gods didn't say anything. I guess they are thinking about which card of theirs should be pregnant if they use the map of the Kingdom of Women in the playoffs."

Xie Mingzhe: “…………”

It seems that the gods really have no moral integrity. Maybe Nie the God will let the lion and the banyan tree fall in love in order to win!

Tang Muzhou said, "There is also the issue of decks. This season, a new rule has been introduced. The post-season will add a deck announcement phase. Each club must announce the deck pool on the official website. Therefore, in the post-season, it is almost impossible for you to turn the tide with one or two cards. All clubs will carefully study the opponent's deck pool and know each other well. This also guarantees the fairness of the competition to the greatest extent."

There are many new tactics in the regular season, and it is possible for a weak team to beat a strong team 2:0 by using new tactics.

But it is difficult to have such an upset ending in the playoffs, and that is when the real test of command and hard power comes.

Nirvana had a relatively smooth journey in the regular season, especially with Xie Mingzhe and Chen Xiao both lacking experience, they got 1 point from Judgment, Temple of the Gods, Dark City and Fenghua. It can be said that it was all thanks to the surprises of the new decks and new maps.

This does not prove that Nirvana's strength is on par with these old clubs - Nirvana still needs to hone its coordination as quickly as possible. This is what Tang Muzhou told him through the game. Xie Mingzhe also knows this very well and he has been working hard.

Tang Muzhou said, "For example, core scattered cards like Yue Lao and Guanyin, you can make some new tactical layouts around them. If you have ideas for new cards like this, you should make them as soon as possible. If you prepare in advance, you won't be in a rush when the time comes."

Xie Mingzhe nodded seriously: "I understand." He took the initiative to fill a cup of tea, raised it with a smile and said: "You can't drink alcohol during the competition, so I'll use tea instead of alcohol. Here's a toast, brother."

"Why do you want to honor me?"

"I relied too much on new cards and maps, and never thought about how to counterattack once my tactics were guessed and targeted by the opponent. I am really just getting started in command, and I still have a lot to learn from you, brother."

The look on the boy's face was extremely serious, not at all polite.

Tang Muzhou smiled slightly, looked at him tenderly and said, "Compared to Ye Zhu and Bai Xu, you are really much more mature. If I had targeted those two guys like I did today, they would probably be cursing at me like crazy. But you were able to calmly find the problem. You are worthy of being my junior brother."

Tang Muzhou raised his teacup, clinked it with his, and said, "Next time at Fenghua's home stadium, I will still not be polite to you."

"That's as I should. Don't be polite, senior brother." The two smiled at each other, and Xie Mingzhe drank up the tea. After the competition, he would invite his senior brother to have a few drinks. He still couldn't be careless during the competition.

The two of them finished all the food on the table and then walked out of the restaurant.

It was almost eleven o'clock at this time, and Tang Muzhou personally drove Xie Mingzhe back to Nirvana Club.

When leaving, Xie Mingzhe stood by the road and waved: "Be careful on your way back."

Xie Mingzhe's smile was so beautiful under the warm street lights that Tang Muzhou couldn't help but get out of the car and give him a friendly hug. He gently patted his shoulder and whispered in his ear, "Nirvana will definitely make it to the playoffs and the finals. I believe you can do it."

Xie Mingzhe smiled and hugged him back, saying, "Don't worry, brother. I will do my best!"

Tang Muzhou's embrace tightened slightly, then he let go of him without making a sound, and whispered, "Good night."

After returning to the dormitory, Xie Mingzhe was so excited that he couldn't sleep. His senior treated him to a delicious midnight snack and he was hugged and encouraged before leaving. Xie Mingzhe felt particularly warm in his stomach and heart.

He has no relatives in this world, but Tang Muzhou really has nothing to say about him.

It would be nice to have a brother like this.

That night, Xie Mingzhe stayed up very late before going to bed. His dreams were filled with the refreshing scent of his senior brother and his gentle eyes as he looked at him... When he woke up in the morning, he found a smile on his lips and was in a particularly good mood.

He washed his face with cold water in the bathroom, and came to the restaurant to have breakfast refreshed. As a result, he saw Chi Yingying hurriedly walking towards him with a serious look: "Azhe, did you go out with Tang Shen in the middle of the night?"

Xie Mingzhe was shocked: "How did you know?"

Chi Yingying rubbed her brows with a headache: "...headline."

Xie Mingzhe opened the webpage and saw the hot search topic "Tang Shen has a late-night date with someone" on the headlines.

After clicking on it, he saw a photo of Tang Muzhou and him hugging each other on the street late at night. The photo was not very clear. At that time, he was leaning in Tang Muzhou's arms. Tang Muzhou was a few centimeters taller than him, and his face was blocked.

Netizens were gossiping excitedly: "Wow, so exciting so early in the morning? Does Tang Shen like men?" "What a cute height difference, they look a good match?" "Who is this little brother? Tang Shen is so gentle when he hugs him!" "Tang Shen, let go of this little brother, come to me!" "Is Tang Shen's arms warm? I envy this little brother..."

The fans started to make a fuss for a while, and soon some eagle-eyed netizens revealed the identity of "the man in Tang Shen's arms".

"Is this guy wearing the Nirvana uniform?" "It's Nirvana, zoom in and look at the badge on his shoulder!" "Look at the watch on his right hand, it seems to be the same watch that Xie Mingzhe wore during the game yesterday..." "Height over 180cm, short hair, thin figure, wearing the Nirvana uniform, isn't this Xie Mingzhe?" "...So why are Tang Muzhou and Xie Mingzhe hugging each other in the middle of the night?"

In the professional alliance group, Ye Zhu was the first to speak up: "Is that photo really of Tang Shen and Xie Mingzhe?"

Bai Xu: "You said we were going to have a midnight snack together last night? Are you two having a relationship? [Shocked face]"

Shan Lan: "Didn't Master Tang say he would drop Xie off at the supermarket? Could it be that he took the wrong route and dropped him off at the bottom of Nirvana Building?"

Gui Sirui: "I didn't expect that Tang Shen and Xie classmate have such a good relationship in private. No wonder their game yesterday was like a family ethics drama, with each other snatching each other's babies. [The look of someone discovering the truth]"

Zheng Feng sent a meaningful smile: "So that's how it is. [Enjoy the melon with peace of mind]"

Tang Muzhou: “…”

Xie Mingzhe: “………………”

Xie Mingzhe didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

The crow's mouth of Nie Shen must be blessed. Whatever he said came true. It was actually captured by the reporter!

It was safe along the way. Who would have thought that there would be paparazzi lurking downstairs of Nirvana Tower in the middle of the night? I was on guard all the way, but I missed a step and was caught by the paparazzi at the last moment.

Fortunately, he and his senior brother did not do anything out of the ordinary. They just hugged and encouraged each other in a friendly manner. Even if they were photographed, what would happen? There are so many scandals about the big players in the league. This kind of unfounded rumors will be forgotten by fans in a few days.

Xie Mingzhe was very calm, after all, they were just hugging each other like good friends.

However, since this matter involved two people, he couldn't make a decision on his own, so Xie Mingzhe sent a message to Tang Muzhou: "Brother, how about we make a statement and say that we just had a midnight snack together? Anyway, this photo can't prove anything."

Tang Muzhou said, "Don't worry, this paparazzi is very powerful, and there may be more revelations later."

What will happen next? Xie Mingzhe was uneasy after hearing what his senior said. He was restless during the whole morning training.

By noon, when the news had become popular enough, another explosive revelation was revealed online - this time it was not a photo, but a short 15-second video.

In the video, the two hugged each other and then smiled, looking very compatible.

Xie Mingzhe said: "Don't worry, brother, I will do my best."

This sentence is particularly clear.

The key points were circled with a red line and carefully replayed three times.

Don't worry, brother. Don't worry, brother. Don't worry...

The crowd of onlookers dropped their jaws in shock: "Senior Brother?" "What is his name Tang Shen? Senior Brother?" "Tang Muzhou has an apprentice, when did he have a junior brother?" "At this time, he should @Chen Qianlin!"

In the alliance group, Ye Zhu's head was full of questions: "What do you mean, Senior Brother???"

Bai Xu: "@Xie Mingzhe, you call Tang Muzhou Senior Brother????"

Shan Lan: "Keep the formation, why are you calling me Senior Brother?"

Gui Sirui: "Tang Muzhou is Xie Mingzhe's senior brother? @Chen Qianlin, does Lin Shen know about this?"

Lao Zheng sent a smoking emoji and said, "You can accept disciples yourself, but I have never heard of anyone accepting a junior disciple. You two should tell the truth."

Ling Jingtang sent a sword hanging over his head: "Confess and be lenient. There is no point in giving out red envelopes this time. The two brothers who hugged each other late at night can do whatever they want."

Nie Yuandao frowned and said, "I suddenly remembered that when I first made the instant death cards, everyone thought I was secretly helping Uncle Fatty. It seems that I took the blame for someone else? @唐牧洲 please give me an explanation."

Ye Zhu: "I also noticed that every time we discussed Uncle Fatty, Tang Shen would remain silent. Is this because he feels guilty?!"

Shan Lan: "No wonder Uncle Fatty made such targeted instant death cards. He bought Lin Daiyu at a high price at the auction. Is that right, Tang Shen?"

Gui Sirui: "I remember that during the freshman exchange competition at Imperial Capital University, Tang Shen and Xie Mingzhe had a PK. The atmosphere was not right at the time. Did they know each other for a long time?"

Ye Zhu used his anti-fan fighting ability, and memories immediately emerged: "In that match, Tang Shen was playing a coaching match! Damn, no wonder they were playing a coaching match, they turned out to be brothers?"

Ling Jingtang was shocked: "Haha, we have been kept in the dark for so long, Tang Muzhou, you can handle it."

Nie Yuan said, "I have been taking the blame for you for so long, what are you going to do, Tang Muzhou?"

All of a sudden, everyone in the group came out to denounce Tang Muzhou, almost wanting to cut him into pieces.

Xie Mingzhe: “…………”

Why does he have to be so mean to call me senior brother???

Tang Muzhou: “…………”

Is it still too late to take out the money for treating others to a meal?
