Chapter 82.2: All over heaven and earth, two hearts one mind, together forever, true love has no limit (1/2)
Wei Xiao happily went to take a bath. When he came out again, Lu Feng was leaning against the head of the bed and flipping through a book.
Wei Xiao asked curiously, “What book is that?”
Lu Feng closed the book, turned off the light and said, “Sleep.”
Wei Xiao’s curiosity was piqued. He jumped onto his bed to read the title, “… Razor’s Edge? W.S. Maugham’s book?”
Lu Feng: “Yes.”
Wei Xiao frowned and didn’t say anything.
But Lu Feng could understand his thoughts, “You don’t like The Moon and Sixpence?”
Wei Xiao’s voice was stuffy, “Never read it.”
Lu Feng rubbed his hair and said, “Go sleep early.”
Wei Xiao didn’t like The Moon and Sixpence, which had been a must-read book during high school.
But Wei Xiao hadn’t read it. He couldn’t finish it.
The protagonist who’d left his wife and son to pursue his dream stabbed fiercely at Wei Xiao.
Strickland had been very cool, giving up the sixpence on the ground and looking up at the distant moon.
Wei Xiao’s father had also looked up at the moon in the sky, forgetting that he had an elderly mother and young child.
Wei Xiao shook his head, unwilling to think about these messy things. He turned to Lu Feng and said, “Captain…” His voice was very small.
Lu Feng lay down flat, “Can’t sleep?”
Wei Xiao said, “I met Kim Sung-hyun by the seaside.”
Lu Feng turned his head to look at him, “Mm?”
Wei Xiao forgot all of the bad things as soon as he thought about Lu Feng. His voice lightened a bit, “He told me a lot about the time when you were young.”
Lu Feng: “Young?”
Wei Xiao: “17 years old.”
Lu Feng: “Not much younger than you.”
Wei Xiao imitated him perfectly, “I don’t like talking to people. If you’re lonely, you can go find someone else.”
Lu Feng: “…….”
Wei Xiao praised him, “Too cool!”
The captain was amazing, he’d managed to make Old Bandit Yuan suffer!
The corner of Lu Feng’s lips curved slightly.
Wei Xiao was now in high spirits. He pressed the pillow under his arm and propped his cheek up to look over, “They thought that you were secretly crying inside the room.”
Lu Feng: “It wasn’t that bad.”
Wei Xiao looked at him without blinking and softened his voice, “Captain, you don’t hate them, right?”
Lu Feng: “…….”
Wei Xiao said, “Yuan Ze, Kim Sung-hyun, Xie He, you like them, right.”
Even if they ultimately ended up scattered, Lu Feng liked the former FTW. He liked the teammates who’d fought side by side with him, liked these people who cared about him.
If he didn’t like them, why would he try so desperately to buy FTW.
If he didn’t like them, why would he work so hard to support a dying FTW.
The Team of Gods had dispersed, but Lu Feng kept guard over the former FTW.
He maintained a home for everyone.
It was just that nobody came back.
Wei Xiao’s eyes were burning, and he couldn’t go on.
The more he understood, the more heartache he felt.
Everyone thought that the Close who’d stayed in FTW must hate all the teammates who’d left.
In fact, he didn’t hate anyone. He just did what he could.
The old Team of Gods had given him warmth, and he was guarding this warmth.
That was all.
Lu Feng was stunned for a moment, then sighed, “I don’t like them that much.”
Wei Xiao blinked, “Hmm?”
Lu Feng turned to the side and a pair of black eyes looked calmly at Wei Xiao, “Compared to you, there’s a big difference.”
Wei Xiao’s heart pounded.
He pinched the pillow between his elbows and was a little nervous, “I don’t understand.” In fact, he understood it, he understood it very well, but he wanted to hear more, and wanted to understand more.
Lu Feng’s long black eyelashes trembled slightly, “Sleep.”
Wei Xiao was anxious, “No… I really don’t understand, captain, you can’t do that, you have to say things clearly!”
Lu Feng: “…….”
Wei Xiao wanted to run over to his bed and shake him.
Lu Feng whispered, “… I like you more.”
Wei Xiao: “!”
F*ck, he really wanted to hear it when he hadn’t heard it, but after hearing it, he was now one millimeter away from dying on the spot!
Lu Feng covered up the throbbing in his voice, “Sleep now?”
Wei Xiao didn’t dare to provoke him more, “Sleeping!”
He hid in his quilt, wishing that the down quilt weighed 100 pounds, heavy enough to flatten his damned heart.
It wasn’t a confession, it wasn’t a confession.
It was just the ‘liking’ amongst teammates, the straight man type.
But…
Wei Xiao was still so happy that flowers were blooming in his heart. He was so happy that he wanted to go to the seaside and run three laps. He was so happy that he wanted to drag out Kim Sung-hyun and Yuan Ze and tell them loudly, “The captain likes me more!”
Wei Xiao didn’t know when he fell asleep, and Lu Feng wasn’t clear, either.
But, one thing was certain.
Their hearts were beating at the same frequency.
Equally fast, equally intense, equally trying hard to endure.
Every team got up early the next day.
After finishing breakfast by 8:30AM, they assembled at the banquet hall at 9:00AM.
The 12 into 6 competition round was divided into two batches that played at the same time.
Otherwise, if each fight was one hour, one day of time wasn’t enough to finish the competition.
FTW, L&P, and Pro were all in the first batch, and 3U was in the second batch.
Chen Feng had been the one to draw lots for FTW yesterday. He hadn’t dared to use ‘little black hand’ Brother Cai.
It wasn’t a big deal for free matching, but they should be calmer when it came to a proper competition. It wouldn’t be beneficial for their follow-up development if they encountered strong opponents in the very first round.
Chen Feng’s luck wasn’t bad. He drew a team from the Japanese competition zone.
They weren’t particularly strong, but they weren’t too bad, either. They were at about the same level as the previous FTW.
It was a pity that today’s FTW was no longer what it used to be. They’d grown too much over just the training matches over this period of time.
Why did so many teams want to arrange training matches with strong teams?
It was because the effect was significant.
One training session was worth three regular season games, and the pace of progress was really different.
Competitive sports was mostly pitting the strong against the strong. With better training opportunities, a player’s vision, skills, and mentality would all be greatly improved.
FTW had trained often with L&P and Pro in recent days, and their momentum was extraordinary even from the start of the game.
The team from Japan was also centered around a jungler core.
A jungler core…
