Chapter 15
Including his previous life, Su Zheye hasn't gone to bed before midnight for several years.
It's rare that he is so healthy. He woke up naturally at 8:30 in the morning.
After slowly washing up and combing her long hair, Su Zheye changed into the clothes she had washed yesterday and went downstairs.
Unexpectedly, the first person to see it was not Gu Yuan.
Hearing the footsteps, the man in front of him turned around and gave a gentle smile: "Hello, Night."
Su Zheye was stunned for a second before realizing that he was SEA’s former mid laner Shen Shixing, Serein.
Although both are mid laners, fans in the e-sports circle seldom mention Su Zheye and Shen Shixing together, but always compare them.
Because the difference between their personalities is so great.
Different from Su Zheye's flamboyant and bright personality, Chen Shixing has a low-key and kind temperament and speaks in a soft voice.
He is also very handsome and from Zhejiang, so his fans call him a typical Jiangnan beauty.
It’s just… Chen Shixing hasn’t appeared in public for some time recently. When he suddenly saw him, Su Zheye found that he had lost a lot of weight.
Her already fair skin showed a hint of paleness, her slightly loose clothes could not cover her slender wrists and waist, and even the light in her eyes was much dimmer.
The recent world finals defeat...
impossible.
Su Zheye immediately rejected this idea.
Shen Shixing has been playing professionally for six years, it is impossible for him to get himself into this state because of a loss in a game.
——What happened during this period?
Thinking that Su Zheye didn't recognize him, Shen Shixing spoke softly again: "I am Serein."
"Yeah, I know."
Su Zheye came back to his senses and said quickly: "Hello."
Shen Shixing smiled: "Manager Huang was just saying that he didn't know where he got the blessing to have you take the initiative to come to SEA for a tryout. He has been laughing in his dreams these days."
Shen Shixing smiled and said, "Welcome to SEA."
Su Zheye also curved his eyes: "Thank you."
At this time, Gu Yuan walked out of the training room. When he saw Su Zheye, he paused and said, "Get up."
Su Zheye: “Yeah.”
"Let's eat first."
Gu Yuan said: "Manager Huang will be here soon and will sign the contract with you."
Seeing that Chen Shixing didn't come along, Su Zheye turned his head and asked, "Isn't he going to eat?"
Gu Yuan: "He has already eaten at home."
Su Zheye: “Oh.”
Gu Yuan asked: "Are you going out today?"
Su Zheye asked back: "Can I get a portion of my salary after signing the contract?"
Gu Yuan was stunned for a second, and suddenly remembered that Huang Heran said during the All-Star Game that Su Zheye used all of his first year's salary to pay off his parents' debts.
He pursed his lips, and then said: "You can discuss it with Manager Huang, it should be possible."
"OK."
Su Zheye said: "Then I will go out and give money to my mother."
Gu Yuan was silent for a moment before he spoke: "I and several other teammates are going to pay tribute to someone today. If Cheng Yansheng is not convenient to pick you up, you can drive my car."
This time it was Su Zheye's turn to be stunned.
Worship a person.
Still with SEA teammates.
Su Zheye instantly thought of Chen Shixing's strangeness.
He opened his mouth but didn't ask who it was.
But I already had the answer in my heart.
-
After dinner, Su Zheye was dragged by Huang Heran to sign the contract.
There was no need for any discussion at all. As soon as he opened his mouth, the latter readily went to the finance department to apply for payment of the first quarter's salary first.
Borrowing Gu Yuan's car, Su Zheye drove for more than an hour to a mental hospital outside the city.
It was noon on weekdays and there were not many people here, so Su Zheye did not wear a mask.
He walked to a nurse station on the west side of the third floor and said, "Hello, I'm here to visit Ms. Xie Chengxue in bed A33. Can I ask Dr. Jiang if I can enter the ward now?"
The nurse looked up: "You are...?"
Su Zheye handed over his ID: "Her son."
The nurse took it, checked it and said, "Okay, I'll go ask. Please wait here."
Su Zheye said "hmm".
A few minutes later, the nurse came out and said, "The patient is now in a stable mood. You can go in after registering and checking your belongings. Also, do not say anything provocative and do not take the patient out of the ward. There is a visiting policy there, please read it carefully first."
Su Zheye smiled: "Thank you."
It's the same rhetoric every time.
But it’s hard to say whether this woman will remain calm after seeing me.
He sneered in his heart.
Sure enough, Dr. Jiang was standing in front of the ward, waiting for a long time.
Doctor Jiang adjusted the frame of his glasses and said, "Zhe Ye, do you still want to go in this time?"
Su Zheye thought that this old professor who had been practicing medicine for many years was probably traumatized by that woman's behavior.
"I haven't been here for a long time, let's take a look."
Su Zheye said: "By the way, please pay all the fees for this year. Thank you, Doctor Jiang."
He handed the bank card to Dr. Jiang: "The password is the same as before."
Doctor Jiang took it and sighed slightly: "Okay, go ahead, call me if there is anything unusual."
Su Zheye nodded.
He pushed the door open and walked in.
The interior is very cozy and has all kinds of daily necessities. There is a large LCD TV on the wall and several pots of green baskets hanging by the window. It can be seen that a lot of money was spent on it.
There was a woman sitting next to the bed. Although her face had many wrinkles, she still had charm.
She was eating an apple when she heard the door open and turned around subconsciously.
Then he paused, his expression instantly covered with a layer of disgust: "What are you doing here?"
Su Zheye was already used to her attitude, and said in a light tone: "I'll pay you."
Xie Chengxue sneered and said nothing.
"If you need anything, just tell the nurse. The money is there for you."
Su Zheye said: "I'm leaving."
"Come back!"
Xie Chengxue screamed, "Now that you're here, you want to leave without serving me? Is there any son like you?!"
Su Zheye was silent for two seconds, then walked to her side and said, "You go ahead."
Xie Chengxue held the apple in front of him: "Peel it for me."
Su Zheye took it, took a knife from the drawer beside him, then walked to the window and started peeling the fruit in the trash can.
Xie Chengxue rolled her eyes: "Why are you so far away from me? Are you afraid that I will stab you with a knife?"
Su Zheye didn't say anything.
Xie Chengxue suddenly raised his voice: "I'm asking you a question!"
Su Zheye turned his head: "What do you think?"
"What do you mean!"
Xie Chengxue stood up, pointed at Su Zheye and cursed: "I gave birth to you, every part of your body belongs to me, even your life was given by me! What reason do you have to complain to me about this and that?!"
Su Zheye still didn't say anything. He folded the fruit knife, took out a piece of paper, and placed the peeled apple on the table.
"I'm talking to you, bitch!"
Xie Chengxue grabbed the apple and threw it at Su Zheye: "Your face is getting more and more coquettish, but you don't have a mouth! Who will hire you when I sell you out in the future?!"
Su Zheye glanced at her indifferently, picked up the dusty apple that had rolled to the ground and threw it into the trash can, then turned around and walked out of the ward.
Xie Chengxue's shouting and cursing behind him became increasingly harsh, and accompanied by the sound of things being smashed, a nurse immediately opened the door and walked in.
Not long after, Dr. Jiang also trotted over.
"Zhe Ye."
Doctor Jiang first looked him up and down and asked, "Did your mother hurt you?"
Su Zheye: “No.”
Doctor Jiang breathed a sigh of relief: "That's fine."
Su Zheye said calmly: "I was standing by the window peeling an apple, and she thought I was avoiding her, so she got angry."
"well."
Doctor Jiang sighed, "Your mother's bipolar disorder has worsened recently. I don't know why she exploded because she didn't like you. You should try not to appear in front of her during this period."
"good."
Su Zheye said: "I was just paying the money and I won't come for half a year."
Doctor Jiang nodded: "Then I'll go see her first."
Su Zheye said "hmm".
After taking the payment receipt and bank card, Su Zheye returned to the car.
He put his arms on the steering wheel and didn't move for a long time.
It was not until the parking fee collector knocked on the car window that Su Zheye came to his senses, rolled down the window, scanned the code and paid 6 yuan.
After looking at the gloomy sky for a while, he suddenly wanted to smoke a cigarette.
Su Zheye had been staying with Gu Yuan the whole night and had no chance to buy cigarettes and lighters, so he got out of the car and went to the nearby store to buy a pack of cigarettes.
The familiar smell of tobacco entered my lungs, finally suppressing the depression that came from nowhere.
He took out his cell phone and called Cheng Yansheng.
The latter must have just woken up, his voice was dazed: "What's the matter, brother? It's only what time did you wake me up?"
Su Zheye: “Half past eleven.”
"Half past eleven!"
Cheng Yansheng repeated, "Did I get up early these past two days to send you to the All-Stars and give you an illusion? When have I ever opened my eyes before twelve o'clock?"
Su Zheye: “.”
Su Zheye: "You continue to sleep, I will tell you to come out and drink with me in the evening."
"ah?"
Cheng Yansheng suddenly woke up: "Wait, wait, who told me to have a healthy lifestyle yesterday? It's only been one day and you can't stick to it?"
Su Zheye: "I'm in a bad mood."
Cheng Yansheng: "Just think about your Chief Gu and you'll feel better."
Su Zheye shook off the ash and said impatiently, "Stop pushing me. If you don't want to drink, I'll ask someone else."
"drink."
Cheng Yansheng compromised in a second: "If my brother Su asks, then I will accompany you. Where are we going tonight? Night Mate? My sister and I have an appointment with the TRG guys to continue tomorrow. Can you come tomorrow?"
Su Zheye: "Let's talk about it tomorrow. Let's find a quiet place today. I don't want to jump."
Cheng Yansheng: "Okay."
Su Zheye yawned and said, "I'll go back and take a nap. I'll contact you in the evening."
There was an aunt doing cleaning at the base, but until Su Zheye woke up, played ranked games for an afternoon, had dinner with Cheng Yansheng and went to the latter's house to move some things, the other SEA members had not returned yet.
"just."
Su Zheye sat in the passenger seat and glanced at the time: "It's ten o'clock now. When Chief Gu sees that the lights in my room are off, he will definitely think that I'm asleep."
Cheng Yansheng: “Ah?”
Su Zheye continued, "Then we will drink until four or five in the morning. Commander Gu will definitely still be asleep. I will come back quietly and he won't know that I went out for a drink."
Cheng Yansheng: “Ah?”
Su Zheye raised the corners of his lips: "Perfect."
Cheng Yansheng: “…6.”
After driving for a while, Cheng Yansheng suddenly recalled this logic as if he was ruminating.
“Oh my god.”
He opened his eyes wide: "Awesome, it turns out that my brother Su is very smart when it comes to chasing men."
Su Zheye: “…”
Su Zheye: "Get lost."
The two first parked the car back at Cheng Yansheng's neighborhood because they were unable to drive after drinking and it was unsafe to park near the bar overnight.
Then they took a taxi to a nearby bar, and Su Zheye ordered a glass of neat whiskey as soon as he got there.
Cheng Yansheng's eyelids jumped: "What's wrong with you? Are you going out to get drunk today?"
Su Zheye held a thin cigarette between his fingertips, and the cigarette butt flickered in the swirling mist: "I told you I'm in a bad mood."
"All right."
Cheng Yansheng said: "Then I won't ask anymore. I'll drink less today. I have to carry you back."
Su Zheye: "Okay."
Su Zheye has always had a very good alcohol tolerance, both naturally and through training.
We chatted and drank, and before we knew it, the sky had brightened and we were gradually feeling drunk.
Su Zheye glanced at his watch and said, "No more drinking. Commander Gu will have to get up soon."
Cheng Yansheng looked at the dozen or so empty cocktail glasses in front of him and was silent for a while: "Zhe Ye, do you know that you are like a henpecked husband now?"
"Yeah?"
Su Zheye supported his face with his right hand, leaned on the table, and looked at Cheng Yansheng with crooked eyes: "You are wrong, I will never be controlled by anyone in my life."
He was indeed a little drunk, his light-colored eyes were a little blurry, his hair was wrapped around his wrists, and under the dim light, his delicate little face looked like a bewitching enchantress.
Cheng Yansheng clearly felt his heart skip a beat again.
Oh shit.
"Stop drinking."
He took the wine glass from Su Zheye's hand, took out his bank card and prepared to pay the bill: "I'll pay the bill and then take you back to the base."
Su Zheye didn't say anything, but kept looking at him.
I don’t know if it’s because it’s winter vacation or the weather is too cold and drivers are too lazy to go out early in the morning, but it’s unexpectedly difficult to get a taxi at this time.
After waiting for nearly twenty minutes, Cheng Yansheng raised the fare before dispatching a taxi from a distance.
So when the two returned to the SEA base, it was already seven o'clock.
"Grass."
Cheng Yansheng supported Su Zheye and stood on tiptoe to look around like a thief; "Even if Commander Gu is an old cadre, he wouldn't get up at seven o'clock."
Su Zheye wanted to laugh when he saw that he looked exactly like Huang Heran, so he half leaned on him and cursed him with a smile, "Idiot".
The SEA base has a combination lock. Cheng Yansheng has been there several times and knows the password to the gate.
"Do you still remember your room?"
Cheng Yansheng bent down to input the password while saying to Su Zheye, "Ah Huang must not be awake at this time. If you can't remember, you can only sleep on the sofa."
Su Zheye: “Remember.”
His voice was a little vague: "If you sleep on the sofa, Chief Gu will find out."
"Yes, yes, yes."
Cheng Yansheng looked helpless, propped up Su Zheye, and opened the door: "You are unconscious but still thinking about Chief Gu, why don't I send you directly to Chief Gu's bed, so that you don't have to worry about it..."
As soon as he stepped half a step into the base, Cheng Yansheng met a pair of dark eyes right in front of him.
His heart skipped a beat and he froze in place for an instant.
I!
Depend on!
What kind of luck is this? ! ! !
Cheng Yansheng laughed dryly and stammered, "——I'm always thinking about Chief Gu... Good morning, Chief Gu, long time no see!"
Gu Yuan didn't say anything.
When he heard the second half of Cheng Yansheng's words, Su Zheye slowly raised his eyes.
However, before his alcohol-filled brain could process what was happening, he was suddenly pushed forward by an external force.
"Captain Gu, I've brought the person back to you. I'm leaving now!"
Cheng Yansheng was almost about to stand at attention and salute when he said this, turned around and rushed out.
Gu Yuan subconsciously caught the boy who fell towards him.
The moment the soft jade was in his arms, the soft and warm lips touched his neck without warning.
Gu Yuan's body suddenly stiffened.
