Seeing Yang Bing’s expression that was turning green, Ji Zhiyao lifted his brow. “Why are you picking out clothes?”
“Um that,” A big boy around 1.8 m suddenly became bashful. “Xing Chuxue invited me to go to the library tomorrow.”
“?”
All three of them turned to look at Yang Bing. Ji Zhiyao first spun back to turn off the livestream and then smiled. “Hey, not bad. Good things on the way?”
“Thanks to your generosity.” Yang Bing smiled like a fool.
Ji Zhiyao stood up after switching off the computer. He said while he looked for his items for washing up, “That’s because both of you hit it off well, what has it got to do with me? All the best to you. Strive to settle the goddess.”
“I will!”
Ji Zhiyao “mm-ed” in reply and entered the bathroom.
As he washed up, his entire mind was still thinking about what Mo Huaifeng had said about wanting him to go be a reserve.
Was it possible?
Ji Zhiyao had heard a lot about the happenings of the eSports scene, but he had never heard of the existence any special member in any eSports team who could not train according to schedule. When Mo Huaifeng said that, the biggest possibility was that he did not want to be too harsh with his words and wanted to spare some feelings for both of them.
Ji Zhiyao spit out the toothpaste foam expressionlessly and looked at himself in the mirror.
Hand on his heart, if casting aside the external factors, he did still want to be a professional player.
He wanted to interact with the world that was very close to him but was one that he did not understand.
...
S City, Mix’s base meeting room.
Yuan Wei looked with a constipated expression towards the person opposite him, suppressing for rather long before he said, “Captain, do you still have any bit of principles?”
Mo Huaifeng drank a mouthful of black coffee. The bitter and astringent taste made him frown lightly. He put down the cup. “We must be responsible for what we say.”
“You tell me, what did I say wrong?” Yuan Wei said. “You want the entire team to be a full Chinese team. I have no objections to that, and if you recruit a jungler reserve of an average standard, I have no objections too. But please tell me, with Ji Zhiyao’s techniques and still not properly cooperating with the training timings, where is the possibility of Mix winning the national qualifiers? I’m afraid even a training tournament would be difficult to win!”
Yuan Wei was rarely so agitated, especially when facing Mo Huaifeng. Usually, he was always the party being oppressed. Now that he was suddenly flaring up with no forewarning, he was obviously desperate.
Yes, he did not hate Ji Zhiyao, and he had even taken quite a liking to him. However, this was about the battleteam’s interests, and he had to think for the team.
Wanting to recruit a jungler reserve was not only to work with the team in the midst of Xiao’s treatment period but also to provide new possibilities for the team. In the worst scenario, if Xiao’s standard was affected after the operation... this jungler would have to fill his spot, to play in the national qualifiers and even the international league.
Ji Zhiyao did not have enough capability and did not have enough time either.
What left Yuan Wei most speechless was that Ji Zhiyao had already rejected the offer, but Mo Huaifeng actually insisted on adjusting training timings for him, just so he could successfully join the team.
Was he crazy...
Yuan Wei rubbed his head, calming his voice. “Captain, in Heroes’s hundreds of servers for the entire China, there are more than ten thousand people at Challenger rank, and the number of gaming broadcasters can’t be counted. Why must you make it to be Ji Zhiyao who comes? Besides, he’s said it, he prefers studying over eSports.”
“Do you not really know how to listen to the main points?”
Mo Huaifeng said, “He is very suitable for the team, and everyone has no objections to him joining. Xiao especially told me yesterday to bring him to the base earlier. Yuan Wei, when all of us first came to Mix, we hadn’t even reached the level of professional players. Ji Zhiyao is different, and all he needs is a little guidance and high-level opponents.
The two stared at each other for quite some time. Yuan Wei could not come up with anymore arguments, and his anger subsided. “The club definitely wouldn’t agree.”
“I’m here for that, don’t worry.”
Mo Huaifeng finished the coffee that had turned cold and lifted a smile. “You just have to be responsible for communicating about the contract with the club and prepare to welcome a new member into the team.”
“Damn you, I got it.”
