  Ji Zhiyao wished he could sleep till the end of the world, however he was too hungry, so this goal could only be interrupted as he opened his eyes and prepared to go look for some food.

  Yet Ji Zhiyao was muddled from his sleep and had completely forgotten that he had seen another person beside him when he got up to draw the curtains.

  Hence when he was shifting towards the edge of the bed, he lifted his foot and kicked an obstacle.

  Ji Zhiyao’s eyes widened abruptly as he sat up.

  Mo Huaifeng who was woken up by his one kick had a cold and dark expression.

  “What the f*ck Captain what’s going on? How did you end up sleeping with me?

  “Were you taking advantage of my delicate state? My innocence is gone?

  “Damn it damn it Yang Bing that bastard, insisting on making me drink with him, he’s ruined the rest of my life!”


  Mo Huaifeng asked, “What do you mean?”


  Ji Zhiyao finished his rants before he realized that his Captain’s face was as dark as it could get. Alarm bells could not help but began ringing in his heart, he laughed dryly. “Good morning Captain.”


  Mo Huaifeng sat up, his tone slightly mocking as he said, “You didn’t mean it this way when you were tugging at my sleeves telling me not to go yesterday.”


  Ji Zhiyao carefully observed Mo Huaifeng’s expression and realized that he didn’t seem to be joking, and instantly felt suffocated.

  Ji Zhiyao bowed his head. “Captain, last night I blacked out last night, I really don’t remember what I’ve done, please don’t take it to heart.”


  Mo Huaifeng was expressionless. “Do you need me to help you recall? First you told me over the phone that you wanted to sleep at the barbecue place, and you even said good night to me; I drove out to fetch him, you slept like a pig, no matter how you were shaken you wouldn’t wake up; at the base I helped you remove your jacket, you tugged on my sleeve like a young bird looking for its mother, not letting me go no matter what……”


  “Stop stop stop, Captain stop right there! I was wrong!”


  “That’s all I can recall for now, anything else you want to know?”


  “I don’t want to hear anything!”


  Whereas Mo Huaifeng’s current expression looked to be slightly mean. He lifted his brow, seeming like he had yet to say his piece. “Not despising that I ruined your innocence?”


  “Captain, I’m really begging you.”


  And Ji Zhiyao’s expression indeed didn’t look too good, flushing red and turning blue. Mo Huaifeng calmly admired it for a few seconds, before shifting his eyes away, finally letting him off. “Got it.”


  Ji Zhiyao sighed in relief. “Thanks Captain, for bringing me back yesterday. Oh yes; Captain, where’s my dorm mate?”


  “That place operates 24/7, he was out cold, I didn’t care.”


  Mo Huaifeng stood, looking like he was about to walk out. But turned back as if he was suddenly reminded of something, picking up a small piece of paper on the table. “This fell out from your phone yesterday.”


  Ji Zhiyao dazedly stared at the little slip of paper in Mo Huaifeng’s hands from afar, completely unable to remember why he had stuffed this in his phone cover.

  Up till he took it and glanced at the content on it, did everything come back to him. “This was from my first time meeting Brother Xiao, he gave it to me. I was afraid of losing it then, so I just stuffed it into my phone cover.”


  Mo Huaifeng recalled that incident, and asked, “You guys met in Silver Throne?”


  “Huh? Yeah. Captain how did you know?”


  “I don’t just know, I even accidentally became boasting target to whom Xiao boasted about himself encountering a fan.”


  “.…… Then you’re pretty pitiful.”


  Seeing the unconcealed gloat over his misfortune on Ji Zhiyao’s face, Mo Huaifeng almost revealed that he had met him at Silver Place, but in the end Mo Huaifeng managed to hold it back, pushing open the door to leave. “Quickly tidy up, prepare to go downstairs for training.”


  Ji Zhiyao yawned and replied, “Okay.”


  When Ji Zhiyao stepped out of the bathroom, he saw an unfamiliar black windbreaker on the sofa. He checked the size which further confirmed his thought that

  Ji Zhiyao had intended to throw it directly into the washing machine, but later realized that there were still a pair of car keys and a lighter in the pockets of the windbreaker. Hence he removed the items and went next door to knock on the door of Mo Huaifeng and Nuo’s room.

  The one to open the door was Nuo whose eyes were drowsy with sleep.

  It was evident that he had just woken up, his words slightly unclear. “NoHomo? What’s up?”


  “Where’s Captain? His car keys and lighter are here, I’m here to return them to him.”


  With that, Ji Zhiyao saw that Nuo’s eyes had lit up.

  “Captain went to shower. Last night Captain went out to fetch you, I didn’t see him come back even till late in the night. I texted Captain, he said he wasn’t coming back to the room to sleep. Now his belongings are with you…… I seemed to have discovered some secret, will I be silenced?”


  Ji Zhiyao didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “What secret? I was drunk last night and messed around, Captain took care of me for a bit.”


  “I’ve known Captain for more than two years, this is my first time hearing that he knows how to take care of someone. How’s it, do you feel a kind of concern that comes from daddy?”


  Ji Zhiyao ignored him, shaking the car keys and lighter before him as he said, “Help me let Captain know I’m leaving these two in the living room.”


  “Sure. You should go shower quickly, even I can smell the booze on you.”


  Ji Zhiyao leaned into his clothes and sniffed the smell on his body, then thanked Nuo for his reminder.

  He finished showering and went downstairs, finding that there was only Xiaofei and Xiao in the living room. Xiaofei was in a match alone, whereas Xiao was still training his hand with bots.

  Ji Zhiyao greeted them, then sat before his computer, shook his head and began a match.

  He had logged in an alternate account, username “LittleBoyWhoLikeMelonRind”, it was his newest account which he was intending to use to bully rookies in bronze ranked games.

  But he had not long played for long before Ji Zhiyao distinctly felt that, he was the one being bullied.

  He had not played lower ranked matches for a really long and totally did not imagine that he would meet a bunch of rookie teammates who don’t know a single bit about teamwork and play as they like, but are also great at cursing at people. After several matches, Ji Zhiyao virtually felt like puking.

  Were all bronze ranked games now this awful?

  He leaned into his chair, and understood after thinking for a moment. The winter vacation had yet to end completely, the primary school students were probably not back in school yet.

  But speaking about school…… Counting the days, in another two to three days, he would be starting school.

  Thinking of the days to come with training and studying to be balanced, Ji Zhiyao felt a little like he had nothing to live for anymore.

  And the national qualifiers that would begin in September, at the very most, there was half a year’s time left……

  Mix battleteam, has to qualify with the rank of number one locally to be worthy of it’s capabilities and all of the member’s continuous hard work.

  Many thoughts flashed across his mind, Ji Zhiyao straightened up, logged onto his main account and started a match.

  A few hours later, everyone had come down from upstairs.
