Nan Jue flew back and forth that day and arrived in Haishi on time before dinner.
He opened the door of his house, and it was still dark inside.
I looked down at my phone, but there were no missed calls.
He raised his hand and rubbed his forehead, and finally went home for the Chinese New Year. This year is almost over, and there is not even a single person in the house.
How miserable.
Nan Jue curled his lips in a self-deprecating manner, picked up his phone to greet his parents who were on vacation in Northern Europe, and resigned himself to his fate, walked into the kitchen and cooked an egg noodle for dinner.
After filling my stomach, I went upstairs to take a shower, changed into comfortable home clothes, turned on the computer, and sent a WeChat message.
[NJ: I’m back. 】
In Qi’s study room, Qi Qi huddled in a corner next to the bookshelf, barefoot, wearing only a thin pajamas, holding a photo album in his hand, the shadow completely enveloped his entire face in black among.
The cell phone in his bedroom vibrated slightly, then calmed down.
After half an hour.
With his long legs resting on the computer desk, Nan Jue, who looked tired all over his body, looked down at the WeChat chat interface, and the message “I’m back” had already stayed where it was, motionless.
He raised his hand and pinched the bridge of his nose, lowered his legs, and turned off the computer screen. Nan Jue got up and sat on the lazy sofa next to the bookshelf, randomly picked up a thick classic in the original language, and read it casually.
In the early hours of the morning, Qi Qi returned to his room in a daze. He picked up his phone and was just about to charge it, but unexpectedly saw several messages on the phone screen.
[NJ: I’m back. 】
[NJ: Not here? 】
[NJ: Dad is about to die of sleepiness, so he squeaked when he came back. 】
Qi Qi replied in a daze.
[Kiki: Yes. 】
In a few seconds, the message came back.
[NJ: So late? 】
Sitting blankly on the bed, holding the phone, Qi Qi didn’t know what to reply for a while.
[Kiki: Come back in the afternoon, how about you. 】
[NJ: Almost. 】
After replying to this message, Nan Jue stood up from the beanbag sofa, stretched his hands, stretched his body, and his phone vibrated again.
[Kiki: Why haven’t you slept yet? 】
[NJ: Waiting for you. 】
Seeing these three words at first, Qi Qi’s hands trembled slightly, thinking that he didn’t reply to the message all night, and felt a pang of guilt for no reason.
[Kiki: I went to the study room at night and didn’t bring my mobile phone. 】
Nan Jue didn’t pay much attention, he walked to his room and went back.
[NJ: Reading?Are you so studious? 】
Qi Qi was stunned for a while, and replied honestly with two words.
[Kiki: In a daze. 】
Nan Jue’s footsteps stopped, and the bridge of his handsome nose moved slightly.
[NJ: In a bad mood? 】
[Kiki: Yes. 】
[Kiki: Sorry for keeping you waiting for so long. 】
[NJ: What a big deal, don’t always be sorry, I’m sorry, it’s annoying to watch. 】
[NJ: Alright, let’s wash up and sleep.Tomorrow’s flight, right? 】
[Kiki: Yes. 】
[NJ: Hurry up and go to sleep. 】
[Kiki: Yes. 】
[NJ: Get out, don’t come back. 】
[Kiki: Okay, good night. 】
Looking at the short sentence sent by a lonely boy, Nan Jue snorted, said not to reply, and politely said good night, this little boy is so cute.
[NJ: Good night. 】
Looking at the few impatient words in the phone, the withdrawn boy who hadn’t changed his expression all day finally had a warm color on his face, and his thin lips unconsciously relaxed and softened a little.
Charge your phone and lie down on the bed.
Close your eyes.
The image of the afternoon at the cemetery flashed inexplicably in his mind, a man dressed in black like him, and the two bouquets of yellow roses in front of the tombstone.
Fu Yi’s words sounded in my ears again: Nan Jue is also preparing to retire…
The pre-retirement player Knight, who was being unconsciously remembered by a certain child, was standing in front of the corridor window on the second floor of the Nanjia villa, with his hands behind his back holding his mobile phone, his face was indifferent, his eyes were dark, and there was no emotion in his eyes. With a hint of bewilderment.
The team disbanded, Luobo and Shiyi found new owners, King Yan retired, and he ran back to Haishi alone, pretending to be relaxing on vacation, but in fact it was just to escape.
……
Shenzhen Airport.
Inside the VIP lounge.
Qi’s father sat at the small round table and read a magazine, and beside him sat Qi’s mother and Qi’s accompanying assistant.
Mother Qi is a well-known British pianist. The originally scheduled spring recital had to be postponed to mid-March because she returned to China with her husband and son for the New Year. The assistant is currently discussing the next itinerary with her.
Qi Qi was sitting at the table next to the two, and Fu Yi and a rich second-generation friend of his were also at the table. an international competition.
——The PGL International Invitational Tournament that will start on March [-]nd.
Fu Yi’s rich second-generation friend Ye Junzhi offered cigarettes for the third time, Qi Qi instinctively shook his head and refused, stood up evasively, and said, “I’m going to the bathroom.”
Seeing the young man getting up and leaving in a panic, Ye Junzhi turned his head to look at Fu Yi with embarrassment, and muttered in a low voice: “Brother Fu, am I too enthusiastic???”
“Don’t waste your energy, you’re not yet an adult.” Fu Yi let out his nose, laughed, and glanced at Qi Qi’s parents, “My parents are right next to you, so be a good fucking person!”
Ye Junzhi raised his hand to touch his nose, and involuntarily glanced at Qi’s father and Qi’s mother. When he turned his head sideways, he happened to see Qi Qi who hadn’t walked out of sight.
The boy was wearing the simplest white shirt and jeans. He probably inherited the good-looking genes of his parents. His already distinctive mixed-race face was ridiculously beautiful.
Qi Qi’s figure is slender, not tall, but his back is straight, exuding a childish and heroic spirit unique to this age.
Ye Junzhi sighed softly: “It’s a pity…”
Just based on Qi Qi’s looks, even if he goes to the entertainment industry to become a vase traffic niche, he is estimated to be popular half the sky, not to mention that he also has a pair of future sniper hands.
What a pity!
Ye Junzhi, like Fu Yi, is considered an insider, and he is related to Qi Yu’s mother, so he knows more about Qi Qi than Fu Yi.
When Qi Qi participated in the youth training camp in Germany, Ye Junzhi followed Qi Yu to visit him once. The Gavin team at that time can be said to be the dominant club in Europe.
Before Qi Yu and Team Miracle, China had almost no competitive e-sports teams in the world, but Team Gavin has been stable in the top five in the world since the establishment of the club.
Qi Qi being favored by Gavin’s devil coach Leo shows that he has enough strength and potential to match Gavin’s team.
Recalling that three years ago after Qi Qi quit Gavin, Leo came to Qi Yu’s mother again and again to help with ideological work, Ye Junzhi couldn’t help feeling sorry again.
……
The white sneakers, which were so clean that they were not stained with dust, evenly stepped on the smooth and clean ground of the airport.
Qi Qi turned around, turned a corner, and was thinking about walking towards the bathroom in front of him, when noise came from the entrance of the bathroom.
With a precise and even step, Qi Qi slightly raised his lowered head, and his eyes happened to hit four or five teenagers who came out of the bathroom.
Among the few people who also saw him, a round-faced boy with short black hair opened his eyes wide as if he had seen something unbelievable, and stepped up to him with a click of his mouth.
He looked up and down, and his tone was slightly provocative: “Hey, isn’t this Qi Qi?”
The black-haired, round-faced boy spoke not-so-fluent Chinese, and the boys behind him glanced at each other and looked at each other in blank dismay.
Obviously, except for the round-faced boy, none of them knew the overly handsome mixed-race boy in front of them.
Qi Qi tilted his head slightly, his dove-grey pupils flashed with confusion, and he paused for a few seconds before he finally remembered who the person in front of him was, and then nodded towards the talking round-faced boy.
There are not many expressions on the delicate little face. He speaks the same Chinese that is not fluent but obviously better, and speaks in a calm tone: “Hello, New. Long time no see.”
The round-faced boy named New was stunned, long time no see? ? ?
Excuseme? ? ?
Can’t this kid feel his unfriendly attitude?
Why are you still as foolish as before, always acting like I’m polite and obedient? !
Every time he saw Qi Qi’s friendly and well-behaved appearance, New couldn’t help but take a deep breath, put his hands on his chest, and looked him up and down again, sarcastically in a bad tone: “I heard that you quit Gavin’s youth academy three years ago?”
Like Qi Qi, New was a member of Gavin’s youth training camp back then. He left Gavin’s youth training camp half a year earlier than Qi Qi, and switched to the Monster team, which was only a second-tier team at the time.
Although it is a second-tier team, New went to Monster to sign a contract as a full-time member. Although the team’s strength is not as good as Gavin’s, it is better than wasting time in the youth training camp for a long time.
As for Qi Qi.
This kid has always been a talented player in the youth training camp. Whether it is in the eyes of the coach or the youth training players who are not much different in age, he is almost a future sniper number one for the first team.
Until a long time later, when they heard the news that Qi Qi had quit the Gavin team, many people still found it incredible.
No matter what New thinks, Qi Qi doesn’t have too many thoughts at the moment. He can only say that he knows the black-haired boy in front of him. When he heard his question, he simply nodded his head frankly and replied: “Yes of.”
As soon as New heard the music, his tone was slightly exaggerated, but there was no trace of pity on his face, “That’s such a pity! I thought you could be in Gavin’s first team!”
The four teenagers standing next to New were all surprised when they heard what he said.
Except for New, they are all native Chinese. The impression of Gavin’s team, except for the capitalized awesomeness, can only be described by four words of European giants.
This seemingly young boy in front of him actually had the strength to enter Gavin’s first team three years ago?
Qi Qi shook his head, as if he didn’t hear the sarcasm in New’s words, and said honestly, “I don’t play professional anymore.”
