It was clearly just a casual joke, but when Panda asked me this, every word I said suddenly had a different meaning.
"Go your own way!" Yu Mo gritted his teeth, stepped over and grabbed Panda's neck, pushing the talkative little fat man off the stage quickly.
There was a long intermission between the second and third games, so the players returned to the lounge and reviewed their performance as usual. However, the previous game was played quite well, and no one could find any faults, so this part was passed very perfunctorily.
As the hero of the first kill, Panda beamed with joy, "Our little sister's support is really good! That girl is completely different from my level 16 nurse! I can really, completely trust her with my back!"
Ah Lu jumped onto the back of the sofa and sat down, swinging his legs. He said, "You were really reckless when you rushed out with that little health."
"Of course I will. I know Mengmei will give me the healing power of love!" Panda shook his head.
Lin Meng pulled a chair and sat down, tilting his head and saying, "I'm a little curious why you suddenly give me such great trust."
"That's right." Lao Mai said, "You keep calling me a cute girl and trying to get close to me. I'm impressed by you, Panda."
"Hi!" Panda said, "Internet romances are a bond, so let's cherish this connection! I've been watching Mengmei's live streams for so long, we're pretty familiar with each other, right?"
"live streaming?"
"Yeah!" Panda clapped his thick thighs until they made a bang bang sound. "She's the disabled fighter LEMON! The one with the super nice hands I've been watching lately!"
"?!" A Lu and Lao Mai turned their heads to look at Lin Meng.
Lin Meng, who was suddenly exposed, was unable to react. He sat on the stool, a little petrified: "...If I say it now, will you believe it?"
Shake your head.
Lin Meng sighed: "Okay, I am."
"Did you see that?" Panda perfectly embodied the attitude of a bootlicker: "I'm telling you! How could the boss I follow possibly admit his mistake!"
"How did you recognize him?" A-Lu asked, "You are so attentive. This is unlike you, little fatty."
"What beautiful hands!" Panda said. "And Mengmei really likes using the Y button. She used to like putting her hook on the Y button when she was dealing damage, and the hook's cooldown is so short! God knows how long her hands are. I can't even reach them, but she can press the Y button like it's a spacebar."
"This isn't something unusual." Lin Meng wasn't used to being flattered in front of others like this. Her ears blushed slightly as she turned away and said, "Isn't your captain also okay?"
"Hmm?" Yu Mo was suddenly called out, and after a moment's hesitation, he said, "Yes, you can."
"......" Panda rolled his eyes: "Well, I shouldn't have mentioned this in front of the Demon King."
At this time, there was a knock on the door of the lounge, and Xu Dandan's voice rang out at the door: "Volunteer, may I come in?"
Yu Mo turned his head and saw Ah Lu had already jumped down from the sofa and rushed to open the door: "Come in."
The door opened and Xu Dandan walked in carrying a square tray with five glasses of lemon water on it, each with a fresh slice of lemon embedded in the rim of the glass.
"Brother Shan asked me to bring it to you." Xu Dandan raised the plate a little higher and said happily.
"Thank you for your hard work." A Lu took the plate for her and put it on the table.
"Alu, you did an amazing job!" Xu Dandan clenched his fist and said, "Keep going!"
Ah Lu's back stiffened slightly, and he shook his head, "No, I didn't perform well today."
"In my heart you are the best!" Xu Dandan said.
Ah Lu twitched his lips and said, "You didn't trip over the string again, did you?"
"No, no, no." Xu shook his head indifferently.
Yu Mo leaned on the armrest of the sofa, hugged his arms, and looked at the two of them with a smile.
"It turns out there's a reason why Ah Lu didn't perform well today."
"What?" Lin Meng glanced sideways.
"Nothing." Yu Mo said.
Lin Meng didn't pay much attention to it. She reached out to grab a glass of water. Xu said indifferently, "Have some lemonade!"
No one moved. Xu Dandan was wondering when Zhong Xiang walked in from outside with someone.
"I'm sorry." Zhong Xiang said, "We logistics staff brought our own water, so there's no need to trouble you." As he spoke, the logistics staff of Team E brought in a box of unopened mineral water. Zhong Xiang opened it in front of everyone and gave each of them a bottle.
That was high-end mineral water sponsored by the sponsor, and the price of a bottle was in double digits. Xu Dandan sighed softly, looking a little lost.
Lin Meng was the only person who showed favor to Xu Dandan. She didn't like drinking lemonade very much and only took a little symbolically to moisten her throat. She bit the lemonade straw and looked around when Guo Bo called her.
Yu Mo noticed that Lin Xiaomeng didn't seem to like lemonade very much, so he took out a bottle of mineral water from the box given by the sponsor, unscrewed it and was about to hand it to her, but she suddenly stood up.
"I'm going to take a call." Lin Meng pointed at her phone, avoided Yu Mo's movements, and got up to go out.
Yu Mo paused in his action of handing over the mineral water. He watched Lin Meng leave the house, then stared at the half-open door for a while.
She seemed to have more important things to do.
Lin Meng walked to a quiet place, raised her phone, and heard Guo Bo's cheerful voice: "Hi! President Meng! I watched your match! It was amazing!"
"You called me just for this?" Lin Meng was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
"Shouldn't I congratulate you?" Guo Bo said with a smile, "It's such a shame you can't be here. You have no idea how hard it was for me to take over my father's job!"
Lin Meng: "Mr. Guo, please stop being so ungrateful."
"I have some good news to tell you," Guo Bo said. "Today's event was very well organized, and it's generating a lot of buzz. My dad just signed a shareholding agreement with an overseas club. From now on, our Guo family will be a legitimate major industrialist!"
Guo Bo's family's Hengbo Internet Cafe has grown from a small Internet cafe bit by bit. It is not easy to achieve this level. Lin Meng is also happy for him.
"Really?" She smiled. "Congratulations, Mr. Guo."
"I still have to thank Mr. Meng for his strong support!" Guo Bo said, "Don't worry, when I become rich, I will start my own club and sign you to play! I know, Brother Meng, you really want to play professionally! It's so frustrating to just be a substitute."
Although she knew that these were still very unrealistic things, Lin Meng was still very happy that Guo Bo had such a blueprint.
"Thank you, Boss Guo," she said. "I'm hanging up."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Meng let out a long breath and looked up to see Xiao Xingheng standing in a corner of the corridor.
"Star God?"
"How did you feel about the game just now?" Xiao Xingheng smiled: "Tell me about it."
When Yu Mo walked out of the lounge, he saw Lin Meng and Xiao Xingheng standing side by side in the corridor, chatting and laughing.
He was stunned for a moment, as if he had thought of something, and quietly retreated back to the lounge.
Inside the room, Panda drank his fill of water and looked around. "Huh? Where's Meng Mei'er? I wanted to discuss strategy with her. How should we torture Saint Laurent the next time?"
"She should be out looking for Star God's autograph!" Xu Dandan looked around and said, "Look, Star God is not here either."
"Looking for Star God's autograph?" Panda asked in surprise, "Don't tell me she's a fan of Star God?"
"She's a fan of Star God!" Xu Dandan said without a doubt, "She told me so this morning! She was very sad for a long time when Star God retired!"
Panda: "Huh?" He tilted his head to look at Yu Mo, grinning innocently: "Hey! I always thought she was the captain's fan, hahahahaha!"
Yu Mo: “…”
He was a little dazed for a moment.
…
"I admit that I went to Kars because of you."
"So now, there's no need."
There's no need.
Is this what you mean?
It was like crushing an unripe green tangerine in his heart, the astringency and bitterness made him frown.
If that's the case—
Wasn't it that I had been being sentimental all along?!
Depend on!
While he was in a daze, Lin Meng had already returned, followed by Xiao Xingheng. Both of them looked in a good mood, with smiles between their brows and in the corners of their eyes.
This seemed to further verify Xu Dandan's words.
Yu Mo raised his hand to support his forehead.
It’s over…
That's Xiao Xingheng...
…
The third game lasted seven minutes and 40 seconds.
Yu Mo seemed to be holding back a lot of anger. He said "get out of the way" at the beginning and rushed out directly. The opponent's output was all lined up in front, and Yu Mo's rush scared the whole team.
Lin Meng just had enough time to put a shield on Yu Mo, but the shield was broken in an instant. Lin Meng had superb awareness and predicted it with a big healing spell, only to see that Yu Mo's health line had dropped to the bottom again. She broke out in a cold sweat and a kill shot jumped over her head.
Yu Mo actually single-handedly killed the opposing C position TIMI in seconds! The game had only been going on for a little over two minutes!
This opening is murderous!
Yu Mo returned to his support with only a sliver of health left, his expression unchanged. "Heal me," he whispered.
Lin Meng naturally didn't need his reminder and quickly recovered. Yu Mo said, "Eighth Precinct."
"Are you going to lead me to victory without any effort?" Lin Meng said in shock: "Eight points, you look down on the opponent too much!"
Yu Mo did what he said. He pushed to the opposite base in seven minutes, killed every kid with one shot, and detonated the hydrogen bomb while wiping out the entire enemy group.
Seven minutes and forty seconds, done.
Not to mention the other side, even Team E’s own people didn’t react.
The fans in the audience were going crazy, shouting "God Mo, rush forward", but the members of Team E in front of the computers shuddered.
Even Lin Meng felt Yu Mo's low pressure.
"Captain, what's wrong with you?" Lin Meng turned around and asked in confusion when the game ended. "If I hadn't been the nurse just now, the grass on your grave would be two meters high by now!"
Yu Mo pushed the keyboard aside and stood up: "Isn't it because I saw that the nanny was you that I rushed over?"
Lin Meng's heart warmed, and she followed him down the stage in small steps: "Are you in a bad mood?"
"No." Yu Mo said, "I won the game, and I'm in a really good mood."
"Really?" Lin Meng said, "But I still think you're in a bad mood."
Yu Mo stopped without warning and turned to look at Lin Meng.
His brows were slightly furrowed, and a hint of sadness was about to emerge.
"you……"
"Silence!"
Zhong Xiang emerged from the other side of the emergency passage and rushed over hurriedly: "Oh my God, what are you daydreaming about here? I've been looking for you for so long!"
Yu Mo's words were suddenly interrupted. He was a little stunned and asked, "What?"
"What? The show hasn't finished recording yet, and the host is waiting for an interview! Hurry up and go!" Zhong Xiang grabbed his arm and shouted anxiously, "Let's talk about it later!"
Yu Mo was dragged by the bell and had to run. He turned around hastily and shouted to Lin Meng, "Wait for me in the lounge!"
"Oh, okay." Lin Meng blinked and watched the man disappear at the end of the corridor.
She breathed a sigh of relief, turned and walked towards the lounge, feeling very relaxed.
At the door of the lounge, she ran into a man in volunteer clothes.
"The drinks sponsored by Yunneng are under the table." The man lowered his head and pointed toward the door. "Don't forget to take pictures with them. Don't lose them later."
Yunneng is a brand of energy drinks. This time they sponsored a lot of money and required the brand and the players to appear on the show together. Lin Meng nodded and said, "Okay, I got it." He walked in sideways.
At this moment, everyone in Team E went to be interviewed. There was no one in the lounge. Lin Meng wandered around bored. She first bent down and took a look under the table. Sure enough, there was a box of sports drinks.
She picked up a bottle and saw that there was a photo of Panda printed on the new packaging.
A good photo printed on the bottle somehow looks a bit funny. The heavily photoshopped Panda doesn't look like Panda anymore. Lin Meng couldn't help laughing. She rummaged through the box again and again, trying to see if there was any packaging with Yu Mo's photo printed on it. As a result, she found that the whole box was full of Panda.
"It's boring." She straightened up with a lack of interest, shaking a bottle of drink in her hand.
Just as I was thinking about it, the door opened and Yu Mo walked in and asked, "What's boring?"
"Your interview ended so quickly?" Lin Meng wondered.
"I'll make it quick," Yu Mo said, "and that's why I came to see you so quickly."
Lin Meng was stunned: "Looking for me...?"
The two stood face to face, all was quiet. Yu Mo lowered his head, his gaze deep and deep, his eyelashes casting a faint shadow: "I'm sorry."
“…” Lin Meng didn’t know what to say.
"I still want to apologize to you in person." Yu Mo said: "For what I said before about signing a contract but couldn't do it——"
"You don't need to say sorry to me." Lin Meng interrupted him and smiled suddenly: "To be honest, I'm not angry anymore."
"Not angry anymore?"
"Yeah." Lin Meng turned around and shook the drink bottle in his hand: "I just talked to the Star God. I think some of what he said is quite right. I shouldn't get stuck on it."
"For example?" Yu Mo asked.
"For example, there isn't just one Team E in the world," Lin Meng said. "Players don't have to die to atone for losing once."
Yu Mo blinked.
"Through today's game, I found that I really enjoy playing with others." Lin Meng smiled. "Captain, can you help me choose a team? I'll work hard on my development, and maybe we'll have a chance to meet on the court again."
The girl's eyes were sparkling, like a fresh spring.
Yu Mo was stunned, feeling somewhat happy, yet also somewhat inexplicably disappointed.
"Did the Star God say all this?" He curled his lips. "I didn't realize he's quite suited to psychological counseling."
Lin Meng didn't recognize his voice-over and shook her head: "I don't know, but I think it makes sense."
Yu Mo pursed his lips.
The reluctance in his heart began to grow uncontrollably.
But he knew clearly that Lin Meng had missed opportunities again and again, and even the most determined person could not withstand repeated blows. He could no longer hinder Lin Meng's development because of his selfishness.
"Okay." He said seriously, "I'll help you look for one soon. I'll definitely find a good one."
"Thank you, Captain." Lin Meng smiled: "I really enjoyed playing today."
Yu Mo looked at the bottle of drink in her hand that was swaying like a decoration, then glanced at her slightly chapped lips and frowned: "Don't you drink water?"
"I don't like drinks, they're too sweet." Lin Meng glanced at the bottle in his hand with disdain: "Lemonade is too sour."
"Drink some milk." Yu Mo stood up helplessly, unzipped his bag on the sofa, and pulled out a bottle of pure milk: "You little picky one."
He actually brought milk with him. Lin Meng felt a little embarrassed and handed the bottle of drink in her hand to him in exchange: "Then you drink this, I haven't touched it yet."
"Okay." Yu Mo laughed.
The two of them opened the bottle at the same time and drank the water with their heads tilted back. Suddenly, Yu Mo's body stiffened and he bent down and started coughing violently.
Yu Mo: When I found out my wife liked my good brother...
Star God: A professional shield, going wherever needed.
The mother is about to start taking action against her son [rubbing her hands]

This article is still realistic. The hero and heroine are not perfect. They are talented but not golden fingers. They have a mutual crush on each other and grow up together. Many plots will be slowly revealed later, because the author is really not a person who writes too fast. If you feel that the plot is temporarily depressed, you can consider fattening it up for a few chapters. The full plot will be more coherent. If you really don't like it, the author will say sorry here, and you can consider walking away quietly, but ask for mutual respect.
Heart shape.
