Chapter 38
At that time, several SEA players were playing ranked games, and no one saw the message at the first time.
Su Zheye's cell phone dinged a few times. He glanced at it and saw that it was a message from Cheng Yansheng, so he ignored it.
It was not until the end of the game when Yan Shusheng came in to review the game with them, with Huang Heran following behind to join in the fun, that Lu Yang suddenly exclaimed, “— Holy shit!”
From the volume to the tone, it is quite similar to Manager Huang.
"What the hell."
Lu Yang pushed open the gaming chair and stood up: "Are you sick? Manager, come and take a look! XY leaked our training match results!!"
Huang Heran was stunned: "What?"
"This is the first time that Su Ge played the sacrifice style mid-lane. Damn, is this intentional to mess with him?!!"
The training room was silent.
Huang Heran ran over immediately, and Jiang Yiwen and Sui Ran also came closer.
"The original Weibo post has been deleted, but this photo is all over the internet."
Lu Yang gave his seat to Huang Heran: "Take a look."
The more Huang Heran looked, the darker his expression became. He directly dialed Liang Wenxi's number and turned on the speakerphone.
Although the two of them have a decent personal relationship, he will definitely not show any consideration when it comes to such a matter of principle.
Liang Wenxi had already guessed that Huang Heran would call, and as soon as he picked up the phone, he apologized repeatedly: "I'm sorry, brother, I'm really sorry, my new employee here is ignorant, I have fined him, we are now thinking of remedial measures and preparing to issue an apology statement, what do you think... or what do you think we can do?"
"What needs to be done?"
Huang Heran said coldly: "The photos have already been posted, what else can I ask you to do? If you go back two hours and delete the photos, I will forgive you for what happened."
There was silence for a few seconds.
Then Liang Wenxi tentatively said, "Brother...how about we arrange a few more training matches in the next two days and find one where you have a good record and send it out?"
Huang Heran sneered: "What? You did something unkind and unjust, and you want us to do the same?"
There was silence again.
The training room was also extremely quiet, and suddenly, Gu Yuan spoke.
His voice seemed to be covered with a layer of frost: "Which employee?"
Huang Heran was stunned, and then he repeated Gu Yuan's question.
"this……"
Liang Wenxi hesitated for a moment: "He's the new member of the team... uh, a data analyst."
Gu Yuan stood up: "Let him connect the power--"
Before he could finish his words, Su Zheye suddenly grabbed his wrist.
Gu Yuan paused and lowered his eyes.
Although Su Zheye's light-colored eyes showed no emotion and he did not speak, Gu Yuan understood.
——Both of them knew who posted the photo, but Su Zheye didn’t want Gu Yuan to confront him head-on.
Gu Yuan pursed his lips.
Su Zheye smiled, and his fingertips brushed across Gu Yuan's wrist without making a sound: "He's just a clown, let him keep dancing."
The sound is neither loud nor soft, but loud enough to be picked up by a microphone.
After a moment, Liang Wenxi lowered his voice: "Zhe Ye..."
Su Zheye: "Please convey my original words. Thank you."
Liang Wenxi stopped talking.
Huang Heran was a little confused by the secret language of these three people, but he still said to Liang Wenxi: "Don't forget to apologize."
Then he hung up the phone.
"What?"
Huang Heran looked curious: "Who are you talking about? Who do you want to convey this to?"
"nothing."
Su Zheye said: "A clown."
"Someone is plotting behind his back."
Gu Yuan's voice was calm, with a hint of coldness, and he was also speaking to the rest of SEA: "First of all, in practice matches we would exit the game before pushing down the crystal, which means that unless we take screenshots during the game, we would not have any data saved. Also, during the practice match, Coach Yan was always watching and taking notes from behind, and we don't have the habit of recording screens, so naturally we can't bring out the second game's results to refute XY."
"Secondly, in these two training matches, we were practicing a new tactic, which is to use Zhe Ye's ultimate to protect other C positions. Due to his playing style, his record will definitely not look good. But we cannot tell the outside world that we are trying out a new tactic, otherwise it will be exposed in advance. So outsiders will only see Zhe Ye's 0/7 record."
"Finally, XY leaked the training match results, which should be a taboo, but they are not afraid that other teams will not come to them because they are the first team in DPL to have a Korean double C. This configuration means that they will not lack teams to arrange training matches."
After saying these three points, the training room fell into silence so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
After a long time, Lu Yang suddenly shouted "Fuck".
Sui Ran said angrily: "How disgusting."
"damn it."
Huang Heran took a deep breath, but still couldn't suppress his anger: "I really didn't realize XY was like this. Fortunately, Zhe Ye left, otherwise it would be painful to stay in the team."
"Then what should we do??"
Lu Yang was more excited than anyone else: "Just because he has Da Han as his double C, do we have to suffer in silence? The league doesn't care if the training match is leaked?"
Huang Heran frowned. "They didn't post it on the official blog. If Liang Wenxi told the league that he had punished the employee and issued an apology statement, the higher-ups wouldn't be able to say anything. They can't ban XY from scheduling training matches. That's unrealistic."
"Then why..."
"Lu Yang."
Su Zheye suddenly spoke.
His voice was calm and nonchalant as always, with a hint of laxity: "In previous years, the DPL opening match was always won by the champions and runners-up of the previous season. Have you forgotten who won the championship and runner-up last year?"
Lu Yang was stunned.
Jiang Yiwen was the first to react: "This year's opening match will most likely be between SEA and XY!"
Lu Yang: “Fuck!”
Su Zheye smiled: "I still choose Higanbana Fairy in the opening match, we just need to fight back."
"right!"
Lu Yang's eyes widened: "We can choose the same lineup for the opening game and beat them!"
Su Zheye said "hmm" lazily.
"Fuck, you're right."
Lu Yang's anger instantly turned into excitement: "Strength is the best way to slap someone in the face, and by then we won't be afraid of leaking our tactics, we can let everyone see that your 0/7 is to protect me."
Su Zheye slowly leaned back in his chair: "Whether we can win the opening match depends on you."
Lu Yang: "We will definitely win!!!"
With this bonus, the kid was more serious when reviewing the game.
When it was over, Huang Heran suddenly walked in and said to Su Zheye, "Cheng Yansheng is here to see you. I asked him to wait outside while you were reviewing the game."
Su Zheye raised his eyebrows: "What is he doing here?"
"he……"
Huang Heran was a little embarrassed to say: "He was carrying a fruit basket. If someone didn't know, they would think you were in the hospital."
Su Zheye: “…”
Su Zheye: "This idiot."
"Then I'll go out for a while."
He turned to Gu Yuan and said, "You play first, and I'll come back and play duo with you."
Gu Yuan: "I'll wait for you."
Su Zheye: "Okay."
He walked out of the training room and entered the living room, where he saw Cheng Yansheng and the fruit basket at his side.
"… You're an idiot."
Su Zheye said: "What fruit plate did you bring to me?"
"Express your condolences."
Cheng Yansheng came closer and said, "My Brother Su, wasn't your transfer peaceful at that time? How did you offend XY?"
"Have a cigarette."
Su Zheye said: "It's a long story."
"Okay."
Cheng Yansheng followed him out and irritated him: "Please make your story short."
Su Zheye then told Cheng Yansheng what happened when he went to XY base to pack up after the All-Star Game, and what happened later when Qin Yu'an came to the base to find him.
"Fuck..."
"What the hell?!!"
Cheng Yansheng was so shocked that he forgot to smoke for a moment: "So he hates you because he can't get your love?!!"
Su Zheye: "Who knows?"
"Of course he is. Damn, I never realized he was this kind of person when we were at XY together before."
Cheng Yansheng murmured, "Luckily you escaped quickly, otherwise you might have been raped by that idiot someday when no one was around in the base."
Su Zheye: “…”
"So what are you going to do about this matter today? Are you going to break up with XY? Those TRG guys even came to ask me if I want to speak up for you or something, and I said you don't care about these things."
"Um."
Su Zheye said: "I really don't care, but my teammates do care, so let's beat them on the court."
Cheng Yansheng was stunned for a moment, and then he said, "'My teammates care'. When did I hear such sentimental words from you? It seems that the SEA people treat you very well."
Before he finished speaking, Cheng Yansheng suddenly remembered something and grabbed Su Zheye's arm: "——Wait, damn, what's going on between you and Chief Gu? You told me that time... that you two 'slept'?"
Su Zheye said calmly: "I just slept."
Cheng Yansheng's eyes widened: "Is this true?"
Su Zheye glanced at him: "Why would I lie to you?"
Cheng Yansheng swallowed his saliva, half of his brain was filled with "I'm awesome", and the other half was filled with doubts about this world.
In the base, Gu Yuan walked out of the training room and went to the kitchen to pour water.
When passing the living room, he suddenly saw Su Zheye and Cheng Yansheng standing outside the door.
The door was half open, and a cold breeze blew in.
Su Zheye held a cigarette between his fingertips, with his back to this side, his collar fluttering in the wind, making his exposed slender arms look even thinner.
The weather is so cold and he has been out for more than ten minutes but he doesn't even wear a coat.
...This fox never cares about his own body.
Gu Yuan put down the water cup and took Su Zheye's clothes from the hanger.
However, just as he was about to reach the door, Cheng Yansheng's voice suddenly came.
"So...are you planning to develop a relationship with Chief Gu?"
Gu Yuan was stunned.
Su Zheye was curious: "What are you developing?"
"Just... Commander Gu is willing to sleep with you, don't you want to develop a relationship with him?"
Gu Yuan slowly stopped.
Su Zheye took a puff of cigarette, and the spark from the cigarette butt flickered in the mist.
"It's fine to be his sex partner, but you know who I am."
He smiled, his tone still casual: "Even Qin Yu'an thinks I was born a bitch and deserves to be slept with. If other decent women rejected him, he would not be so angry. Not to mention that I personally delivered myself to Chief Gu to be fucked. What kind of image would I have in his mind?"
Su Zheye yawned lazily: "Besides, who knows how long I can live? It's enough to find a few willing people to play with. It won't hurt people and I don't have to take responsibility. I don't want to tarnish such a noble word as love."
Gu Yuan was stunned.
"What the hell are you talking about? How can someone curse himself to death at such a young age?"
Cheng Yansheng frowned: "Quick, bah, bah."
Su Zheye ignored him.
"No, you have to think about it. At least Chief Gu is willing to sleep with you. With his personality, he must recognize and respect you. Let's develop our relationship..."
"hiss."
Su Zheye suddenly pressed his solar plexus: "Don't talk to me about this, I have a headache."
Cheng Yansheng: “…”
"Okay."
Su Zheye smiled and patted him: "Look at my disastrous family relationship. I am really tired of being bound by this so-called blood relationship. Love is even more terrible. I just stay away from all kinds of rules and responsibilities."
Gu Yuan pursed his lips.
He stood there for a few seconds, turned around, and returned to the training room.
-
When playing in a duo, Su Zheye found that Gu Yuan spoke less.
Although he was a man of few words to begin with, now he said nothing except reporting necessary information and giving commands during the game.
After the training, the two walked upstairs together, and Gu Yuan remained silent throughout the whole process.
What's wrong with this person?
Su Zheye was a little curious, but he was never one to care about other people's emotions, so he didn't ask any more questions.
Thinking that Gu Yuan was in a bad mood, Su Zheye decided not to hang around in front of Gu Yuan and annoy him, and went to sleep alone.
However, just as he touched the door handle, Gu Yuan suddenly grabbed his wrist.
Su Zheye turned around.
He smiled and said, "Are you in a bad mood? I thought you would feel better if you were alone."
Gu Yuan did not reply, but asked: "Why don't you let me talk to Qin Yu'an?"
Su Zheye was stunned for a second.
Then he realized that what Gu Yuan was asking was probably about him stopping him today when he said "let that person answer the phone."
"oh."
Su Zheye said: "If you come forward, Qin Yu'an will think that you and I are having an affair."
Gu Yuan had a blank expression on his face: "So what?"
"He will resort to mean and despicable means to target you, just like he did to me."
Gu Yuan repeated: "So what?"
Su Zheye was stunned.
Gu Yuan's tone became a little more serious: "You don't care about these things, do you think I care?"
Su Zheye finally understood why Gu Yuan was angry today.
Maybe he wanted to stand up for himself but he didn't let him. However... he was just a clown. The more he paid attention to him, the higher he jumped. Su Zheye didn't understand why Gu Yuan was so angry.
So he was silent for a moment, then he put his arm around Gu Yuan's neck and clung to him like a boneless person, half acting coquettishly and half trying to please him: "But I do care. Boss Gu's career is so spotless and flawless, it can't be tainted because of me."
Who knew that Gu Yuan would not buy it at all, and his attitude remained tough: "Su Zheye, I don't care or fear whether someone is deliberately targeting or even slandering me. I have done the right thing and have a clear conscience. I just don't want to..."
His tone softened: "You carry everything by yourself."
Su Zheye smiled, leaned in Gu Yuan's arms, and moved his Adam's apple restlessly with his fingertips: "It doesn't matter, I'm used to it."
Gu Yuan grabbed the boy's wrist again.
“It’s different now.”
He said, “Now you have me.”
Su Zheye was stunned.
Gu Yuan was also stunned.
"I mean."
He continued, "Now that you have joined SEA, we are teammates, and I will be responsible for you."
What is there to be responsible for among teammates?
Su Zheye thought to himself, maybe Gu Yuan’s saintly heart was overflowing again.
He stood on tiptoe and bit the tip of Gu Yuan's ear: "Okay, I'll do as you say."
But it seemed like he didn't listen at all.
Gu Yuan took a deep breath.
But he had no choice. Su Zheye was just like that. He was heartless and emotionless and didn't care about anything. No one could really enter his world.
——Only when he was crying in bed could Gu Yuan have the illusion that the boy belonged to him.
"besides."
When Su Zheye was about to go to the bathroom to wash up, Gu Yuan said again: "Even if I'm drunk, I won't go to bed with anyone casually. I never need to satisfy my needs."
Su Zheye paused.
Then Gu Yuan continued, "It was just because it was you that day."
