Bai Cai tried to salvage the situation, “There’s no equipment in the hotel rooms, right!”
Xiang Liu answered, “There will definitely be computers, but we’ll bring our own peripherals.”
Bai Cai: “……………”Brother Liu, wake up, don’t add oil and vinegar!
Bai Cai continued to work hard, “Then, don’t let Old Wei and the captain share a room. Won’t he stick to the captain until he can’t even leave the room?”
After saying so, Brother Cai suspected that he was suggesting dirty things, but he really didn’t want to engage in such a thing at all!
Wei Xiao was dissatisfied, “Old Bai, you’re slandering me.”
Bai Cai’s heart was hurting for the sake of the championship, “Do you dare say that you’re not suggesting it for the sake of soloing with the captain?
Wei Xiao was reserved, “It’s human nature for those who have a favorable position to want more, but I know what’s important and won’t tire the captain out too much!”
Like hell would Bai Cai believe him. He raised his hand in protest, “Coach, Wei Xiao is plotting and misbehaving. He definitely cannot be allowed to stay in the same room as the captain!”Wei Xiao rose up in revolt, “Old Bai, you’re messing up my business!”
F*ck your damned business!
Bai Cai was clearly trying to defend the little beast’s chastity, but the situation now seemed to be reversed!
For better or worse, Xiang Liu finally clued in and hurriedly said, “About that… This time…” There were nine people going. It was an odd number, so the boss had a single room.
He hadn’t finished his words when Lu Feng spoke up, “I’ll share a room with Wei Xiao.”
Bai Cai: “!”
Wei Xiao’s smile bloomed on his face, and he showed off to Bai Cai, “Did you hear that? The captain wants to stay with me!”
Bai Cai died. He was completely, thoroughly dead.
Chen Feng hesitated for a while, then gave up thinking about it.
Forget it, Lu Feng knew what he was doing, so he didn’t have to worry about it. Being able to keep an eye on Little Lunatic Wei would be good too, ensuring that he wouldn’t go out and trouble others.
Coach Chen didn’t have any doubts about this. If they didn’t keep an eye on Wei Xiao, this kid would definitely mess around with all 18 teams and the 90+ contestants there until they exploded!
There was nothing else to go over after that except to finish up the room allocations.
Little Ning would share a room with Old Yue, and Chen Feng would share with Tang Chen. Xiang Liu would share a room with the assistant, and as for Bai Cai…
He’d worked hard all night and received a benefit ‘as big as the heavens’:
Our God Bai, our God of Wealth, could enjoy a single room!
Brother Cai’s laughter was full of happiness!
Wei Xiao wasn’t clear about how the rooms were allocated, because after his own room was determined, Lu Feng looked at him, “It’s ten o’clock.”
These words weren’t understood by others, but Wei Xiao understood instantly!
Previously, Lu Feng had promised to solo with him for two hours. According to Lu Feng’s schedule, it would be from ten o’clock until midnight.
The fat duck that had flown away had come back again. Wei Xiao really didn’t care about the rooms and what not anymore.
“Quick!” Wei Xiao got up and followed Lu Feng to the doubles training room.
The timing was perfect. Once midnight arrived, Lu Feng exited the game.
Wei Xiao felt like it hadn’t been enough, “It’s only twelve o’clock…”
Lu Feng: “Go to bed early.”
Wei Xiao thought about how the future was still long and endured it.
Lu Feng got up and asked him, “Why do you want to room with me?”
Wei Xiao replied immediately, “It’s not for the sake of soloing!”
These words of his, probably nobody in the whole FTW base would believe him.
Wei Xiao explained, “I really wasn’t thinking about pestering you for solo matches. It’ll be very busy when we go to the training camp, and we won’t even be able to finish all the training matches. How could I pester you?”
Especially when he thought about how Close had used solo games to trade for training matches two years ago, Wei Xiao just wanted to kill those guys. How could he be like them and mess with the captain?
Lu Feng looked at him, “Then why?”
Wei Xiao stumbled and said, “Just… I just want to room with you, can’t I?”
He looked like he was really embarrassed to say it, the act was practically perfect.
Lu Feng exposed him, “Because of your sleepwalking?”
Wei Xiao: “……”
Now that Lu Feng had guessed it, he didn’t try to hide it anymore. “Yes! You still remember two years ago, right? I don’t even know how I opened the door myself, and I don’t know how I got into your room or how I ended up holding onto you and sleeping!”
Wei Xiao was really frustrated when he thought about it. He’d always had sleepwalking problems, and so he rarely slept in a room with others.
Normally, he would also keep the bedroom door closed at home, out of fear that he would ‘walk’ his way out and not be able to find his way back.
However, for so many years, he’d never opened any doors while sleepwalking. He didn’t know how he’d done so two years ago.
Since it had happened once, Wei Xiao was afraid that it would happen a second time, which was why he wanted to share a room with Lu Feng, “You definitely have to stop me in case I open the door again!”
Lu Feng: “……”
Wei Xiao reminded him very seriously, “Really. Think about it, two years ago, not only did I open my own door, I also opened your door. It was really damn amazing!”
Lu Feng: “…………”
It wasn’t really that amazing.
Two years ago, both of those two closed doors had been opened by Lu Feng. Wei Xiao had only tossed himself into his arms and clung onto him like an octopus, refusing to let go.
Wei Xiao shook his head and sighed, “I also never thought that sleepwalking skills could be upgraded. It’s been two years since then, and who knows what that sleepwalking skill has been upgraded to now? So, captain, you have to take good care of me!”
Lu Feng moved his gaze away, “Mm.”
There was no way to explain it. He’d just let it be.
Wei Xiao looked like he was heartless and careless, but in fact, he was very observant.
He asked, “Captain, if I sleepwalk into your bed, would you mind?”
Wanting to share a room with Lu Feng was something he’d considered carefully.
Lu Feng had already seen his sleepwalking problem, and in any case, he’d already lost all his face there. It was better to continue with one person.
Besides, two years ago, Lu Feng hadn’t minded him ‘climbing into his bed’. Two years later, the two of them were on the same team, so he shouldn’t mind, right?
Lu Feng: “……”
In fact, he did mind a little.
Wei Xiao could see his dilemma and immediately said, “It’s okay, it’s okay. I’ll go find Old Bai and stay…”
In any case, Old Bai knew about it too. Although that fellow was ruthless, he would only kick him out of bed.
For the first time, Lu Feng experienced having his mouth speak faster than his reason could kick in, “No need.”
Wei Xiao: “Huh?”
Lu Feng: “We’ll stay in the same room.”
Wei Xiao: “About that, don’t force yourself…” He couldn’t bear to see Close be wronged.
Lu Feng frowned, “Not forcing myself.”
Wei Xiao: “You really want to live with me?”
Lu Feng: “Mm.”
Wei Xiao: “You don’t mind if I hold you in my sleep?”
Lu Feng: “……”
Wei Xiao: “I’ll…”
Lu Feng: “I don’t mind.”
Wei Xiao was amused, “Captain, you look like someone who is making compromises for the general good…”
God Lu couldn’t bear to continue listening and interrupted him, “Wei Xiao.”
Wei Xiao was startled and secretly felt that the situation wasn’t good.
Sure enough, the great demon king’s next sentence was, “We can stay in the same room, provided you don’t come find me for solo matches in those 15 days.”
Wei Xiao: “……………………”
Shit, that was over the top!
“No way…” Wei Xiao caught up, “Captain… how about we room separately.”
Lu Feng didn’t even turn his head back, “Too late.”
Wei Xiao: “Sigh…”
They were leaving for 15 days, and Wei Xiao was particularly worried about Soybean.
Reasonably speaking, the training matches could be arranged online. The reason why they all had to drag everyone into one place was due to capital intervention.
The competition committee would use whatever means necessary to make the matches look good. For what? It was all for money.
The proper competitions weren’t enough, and they didn’t want to let go of even the off-season, so they’d created this special winter training.
It was true that the original intention of the competition committee was to narrow the skill gap between different competition zones so that the global competition wouldn’t be dominated by powerful teams while simultaneously giving new teams some opportunities.
However… since they’d already organized it, it was illogical not to try and make some money off of it along the way.
The winter training competitions wouldn’t be broadcasted live. After all, the scores didn’t count, and winning or losing wasn’t meaningful, so the audience’s interest wouldn’t be particularly high. But, they could shoot content of the players’ daily lives. After so many years, Glory had developed from a state where people simply watched the game at the very start, to now, where many star players were really worthy of the word ‘star’.
They could capture the interaction between top class players, arrange some daily activities, and someone might become the new hot topic at any minute.
As long as there was traffic, sponsors would immediately be willing to pay for it, which meant that it was a little bit like a reality show.
Being able to see the players during the off-season and to be able to see so many of them at the same time, was something that made the fans extremely happy!
So, the competition committee pulled everyone together for training. In any case, the sponsors would pay for the hotel, venue, and itinerary.
Early in the morning, Wei Xiao was doing some ideological preparation with Soybean, “Son, be good, your father will bring you back delicious food!”
Soybean: “Aroo!”
Wei Xiao rubbed its doggy head, “And buy you toys!”
Soybean: “Arooo!”
Wei Xiao was reluctant to part from it and continued to coax, “Daddy will have video calls with you every day!”
Soybean didn’t understand a thing, “Arooooo!”
It continued until Xiang Liu brought over a little female assistant, “Don’t worry, the base has arranged for people to take good care of it.”
The man and dog who had ‘deep familial feelings’ and were inseparable from each other, were separated in an instant.
Soybean pounced at the little assistant girl with a happy whine.
The little sister wasn’t afraid, and her smile became even more beautiful, “Oh, it’s so enthusiastic.”
Soybean forgot all about its dad once it saw a beauty, wrapping itself around the beautiful young assistant with delighted cries.
Wei Xiao: “……”
How had he managed to raise such a doggy thing!
Lu Feng just arrived downstairs in time to see the sullen Wei Xiao.
‘What’s the matter?” Lu Feng asked him.
Wei Xiao’s tone wasn’t happy, “I experienced the feeling of being forgotten by one’s son after they’ve found a daughter-in-law!”
Lu Feng then saw Soybean playing together with the assistant.
As soon as Soybean caught sight of Lu Feng, it left the little sister behind to come for hugs.
Lu Feng scratched its chin, his black eyes soft, “Look after the place.”
Soybean used its big head to rub against him, acting incredibly intimate.
Bai Cai had also just arrived downstairs, and Wei Xiao spoke in a sour tone, “What does this dog mean with this?!”
Bai Cai dragged his expensive little suitcase behind him, “Hm?”
Wei Xiao spoke angrily, “Tell me, between me and the captain, who is more attractive?”
Bai Cai: “???”
It was so early in the morning. How come he was being asked this kind of dangerous question?!
i <3 Soybean
