Chapter 4
The air fell into silence in an instant.
Lu Yang's face flushed instantly, and he stammered, "I, I'm not young... I'm the same age as you."
"oh."
Su Zheye looked at him leisurely and smiled: "Then you can call me wife?"
Lu Yang's face turned even redder and he opened his mouth for a long time but couldn't utter a word.
Gu Yuan said: "Night."
Su Zheye looked over and said in the same lazy tone: "Hmm?"
Gu Yuan picked up the Apple Watch with a pure white band, walked back to Su Zheye, and handed it to him: "Let's go."
Su Zheye curled the corners of his lips, raised his eyes, and glanced at Lu Yang whose face was as red as an apple, then he took it, turned around and walked out of the training room.
There was no conversation along the way. When they reached the gate of the base, Gu Yuan suddenly stopped.
He turned sideways and asked, "Excuse me, Night, do you really want to come to SEA?"
Su Zheye was slightly startled: "Why do you ask that?"
"You are a professional mid laner, so your understanding of the mid lane must be deeper than mine, but..."
After a pause, Gu Yuan continued, "Your style of play doesn't match that of SEA, or rather, your style of play doesn't match that of mine. I don't know if today is an exception, or if you'll always choose a more functional mid laner in the future. Of course, SEA can change its style of play to center around you, but you have to be mentally prepared. Maybe the new style isn't suitable for SEA, or maybe we need a long run-in period."
"Need not."
Su Zheye said: "Since I have decided to come to SEA for a tryout, I must adapt to your style of play. Gu Shen, there is no need to be modest. Now SEA's jungle core style is already very strong. In the future, I will choose heroes in accordance with the team's lineup."
He raised his hand, stretched out four fingers, and raised the corners of his lips: "I swear."
Gu Yuan looked at Su Zheye quietly, and spoke after a moment: "I have another question, but I don't know whether I should ask it or not."
Su Zheye smiled: "Just ask, Chief Gu."
Gu Yuan: "Is there a problem within your team?"
Su Zheye was stunned.
Seeing that he was still silent, Gu Yuan spoke calmly, "It's a little offensive, but from what I know, you're not the type to join a team just because you can't beat them. XY didn't beat SEA in the finals last year. If there weren't problems within XY or with the management, you would have played for another year and faced us head-on instead of joining SEA, whose style of play doesn't suit you."
Su Zheye was secretly shocked, not because what Gu Yuan said was completely correct, but because he had analyzed it so thoroughly in such a short time.
So sharp.
But Su Zheye did not reply.
Gu Yuan understood: "Since Night didn't deny it, I will assume that my idea is correct. I don't have any other intentions. I just want to confirm Night's purpose of joining SEA. After all, it is not uncommon for clubs to be stood up by players."
Su Zheye said "hmm".
Gu Yuan nodded at him: "Then Night can go back and tell your team to prepare for the trial of the new mid laner."
The implication is that SEA accepted Su Zheye's transfer.
Su Zheye was slightly surprised: "Hasn't the coaching staff held a meeting yet? Can you make the decision?"
Gu Yuan: “Yes.”
Su Zheye raised his eyebrows. He thought that Gu Yuan had a lot of say, but he didn't expect it to be so big that he could decide on the new lineup without discussing it with the coaching staff.
But it's also true that SEA's jungler-core lineup is decided by the jungler, and they must have held a meeting before and have almost decided on it. During the tryout, they saw that the mid laner who was one of the top four players in the world championship was playing as a tool man for the jungler, so there is no reason not to want it.
Su Zheye is still very confident in his own abilities.
He raised the corner of his lips: "Thank you in advance, God Gu."
Gu Yuan: “No need.”
Su Zheye was about to push the door open and go out when he suddenly heard Gu Yuan say, "Night."
Su Zheye paused and turned his face away.
After a moment of silence, Gu Yuan finally spoke: "The last thing I want to say is that I have no prejudice against your sexual orientation, but I still hope that your view on love will not affect other teammates. For example, please don't make the joke you just made with Lu Yang again in the future."
"Um?"
Su Zheye said: "You said I was joking, so you allow others to talk about me behind my back, but I am not allowed to make fun of it in front of you?"
He was still smiling, but the corners of his eyes, which were originally slightly curved, turned into narrowed ones, and the corners of his lips gradually smoothed out, as if containing a hint of indifference and sarcasm.
"And I didn't say anything impolite, right? Instead, your team's AD said that I deliberately kept my hair long to trick fans into calling me that. Which one sounds more excessive? Such double standards, is this how your team treats guests?"
Gu Yuan was stunned for a moment.
"sorry."
He turned around and said, "That's not what I meant. I will control my teammates in the future and there will be no more talk about you and your appearance. I just hope that when we play together, we can get along peacefully."
Su Zheye said "hmm".
"I'm so sorry, I..."
Gu Yuan was about to say something, but was interrupted by Su Zheye: "No need to apologize, it's my fault. I will hide my sexual orientation in the future and not cause trouble for your team. I'm leaving now."
After saying this, Su Zheye pushed open the door and walked straight out of the base.
-
Cheng Yansheng rested his arm on the car window, smoking a cigarette out of boredom.
Suddenly the car door opened, and a cool scent drifted in. He immediately straightened up: "I'm back."
Su Zheye sat in: "Yeah."
"How's it going?"
Cheng Yansheng was more concerned about the results of the tryout than Su Zheye: "Are they satisfied? Did they tell you to go back and wait for notification?"
Su Zheye took the cigarette box from the storage compartment and lit it: "No."
Cheng Yansheng was stunned: "Ah? Didn't I tell you to go back and wait for notification? Did you reject it on the spot?"
"Let me ask you something."
Su Zheye did not answer directly. Instead, he took a puff of cigarette and leaned lazily on the back of his chair: "Is my sexual orientation so obvious?"
"this……"
Cheng Yansheng thought for a moment and said seriously: "I'm sure I'll doubt your sexual orientation when I see you for the first time, but after spending some time with you, I probably won't think you like men anymore."
Su Zheye exhaled smoke: "What about Gu Yuan?"
Cheng Yansheng was surprised: "What Gu Yuan? No, you mean do we think you like Gu Yuan? Officer Gu is indeed your type, but he is so serious and a high-class beauty. It's too difficult to be gay."
"That's right."
Su Zheye adjusted his sitting position and turned his head: "Gu Yuan said that I can go back and inform XY to try out the new mid laner, but I hope my sexual orientation will not affect other people in SEA."
Cheng Yansheng was obviously stunned: "Huh?"
Su Zheye: "How did he know my sexual orientation?"
Cheng Yansheng was still confused, and his focus was not on the fact that Su Zheye had passed the tryout. "No, how did Chief Gu know your sexual orientation? No one in the e-sports circle knows. I swear I didn't tell you. And he definitely wouldn't mention this to you in person just because of some unfounded gossip."
"Um."
Su Zheye leaned back in his chair and said nonchalantly: "Forget it. It doesn't matter. Even if he knows, he won't tell anyone else. I can rest assured about that."
"oh."
Cheng Yansheng was stunned and said, "Indeed, Commander Gu is a man you can trust. Wait, you said Commander Gu asked you to go back and notify XY to try out other midfielders?"
Su Zheye: “Yeah.”
“Fuck!”
Cheng Yansheng was startled, and then opened his mouth wide: "So fast, you are worthy of being my brother Su! Nice, please eat, please eat!!"
"OK."
Su Zheye said lazily: "It's too cold at night and I don't want to move. I'll treat you at noon tomorrow."
Cheng Yansheng: "I choose the place!"
Su Zheye said "hmm".
As the car drove out of the base, Su Zheye looked at the SEA building getting farther and farther away from the rearview mirror, and suddenly turned his head back: "Cheng Yansheng, what did you just say?"
Cheng Yansheng: "What what?"
"Do you think I will like Gu Yuan's next sentence?"
Cheng Yansheng thought for two seconds before he remembered: "Oh, he is just so serious that it is too difficult to turn him gay."
Then he widened his eyes: "Fuck! You're not really going to chase after Chief Gu, are you??"
Su Zheye raised the corner of his lips: "Who said that?"
Cheng Yansheng breathed a sigh of relief: "That's fine. I was scared to death. Although you two will meet every day, it's hell level difficulty for Chief Gu."
Su Zheye smiled without saying anything and looked out the window.
Who said he was going to pursue Gu Yuan?
Chasing such an innocent and serious word is not suitable for me. To be exact, I just want to sleep with her.
Su Zheye opened his lips and blew out a smoke ring, then gently flicked it away with his fingertips.
Looking at the wisps of smoke dissipating in the air, his mind suddenly emerged a scene two years later where Gu Yuan stood under the spotlight, holding the trophy in his hands, with a cool and calm expression.
And there was also the expression on Gu Yuan's face when he sincerely apologized and promised when he deliberately found fault and mocked him just now.
Su Zheye licked his lips.
Suddenly I want to see Commander Gu losing control.
