Rise

After Li Shiyi finished speaking, the two people in front of the dining table became quiet. They didn't speak as if they were thinking about something.

The proprietress of the small restaurant came over with a menu and asked the only two customers in the store to order. The two seemed to have suddenly come to their senses and hurriedly waved their hands in a tacit understanding, saying, "There is still a friend who hasn't arrived, so we will order later."

The landlady took the menu and left again.

However, the silence in front of the dining table was broken.

Li Shiyi looked at Tian Tian:

"Are you KG training these days? I haven't seen you come to God's base."

indeed.

A while ago, whether it was KG or Hayami, they were so diligent in running to the God Club training base. It seemed that starting from the training preparations of the three companies before the finals, the relationship between the top three teams in the Chinese LPL became stronger and stronger. Familiar, almost like family.

In recent days, when Lin Feng and others from the Magic City Finals Team went to God Base for training, they did not see Hayami or the KG members.

When Li Shiyi asked, Tian Tian nodded and explained:

"Um."

"I haven't been there in the past two days. We have researched and formulated some new tactical systems here, and we are training and adapting at the base."

After all, the new season is coming and a new round of competition is about to begin. No matter how close the three clubs are, it is impossible to reveal all the past information to each other.

There are still things that you need to prepare privately.

Li Shiyi nodded in understanding.

Then the table fell silent again.

After a while again, this time it was Tian Tian's turn to look at Li Shiyi, and asked with a careful look:

"Come here, Fengzi doesn't know, right?"

Li Shi nodded and shook his head:

"I told him that something happened, but I didn't say that I came to see you."

"He shouldn't know."

Tian Tian said "hmm\

,"He breathed a sigh of relief, as if he was a little relieved now: "Fortunately, it's you, if it were me... As long as there is something to hide, it will definitely be exposed."

Li Shiyi smiled bitterly:

"If possible, I don't want to do this..."

Several close partners and teammates who once fought side by side were so close that they could not distinguish between each other, and they would never hide anything from each other.

But this time...

But it was an exception.

Because the person they had an appointment with at today's lunch dinner was indeed not suitable for someone to know or even be present.

As if thinking of something, Li Shiyi hesitated and looked at Tian Tian:

"Do you think today's meal...will be effective?"

Tian Tian was stunned for a moment and showed a blank expression:

"What effect?"

It seemed that because of nervousness and psychological pressure, Tian Tian almost forgot the main purpose of having this lunch.

When Li Shiyi saw Tian Tian's reaction, he couldn't help but shook his head again and smiled bitterly:

"never mind."

"It doesn't feel like it will be very effective—"

It seemed like they were asking and answering their own questions. Although the two of them had discussed in advance to have "that person" for lunch, and originally hoped to achieve certain results, in fact, they calmed down and thought about it again...

Based on their familiarity with that person, this meal was probably just a dinner party.

The two did not speak again.

They just looked up at the clock on the wall from time to time, watching the hands move little by little, and then glanced outside the store once or twice, as if the "person" they were waiting for would walk in from outside the next second.

After a while, the person waiting had not arrived yet, but Tian Tian's stomach was already making a "gurgling" sound.

Li Shiyi kindly suggested:

"Otherwise, let's order first."

As he spoke, he turned to look at the front desk, ready to say hello:

"The boss lady——"

However, just as he opened his mouth, Li Shiyi turned around and saw the direction outside the store. At this time, someone was walking in from the outside.

Then the sound stopped suddenly.

Almost at the same time, the two people at the table stood up subconsciously.

…

Someone walked into the restaurant from outside.

Looking around the store, he easily spotted Tian Tian and Li Shiyi at the corner table.

Then the visitor showed a smile on his face and stepped forward quickly.

First, he reached out and gave Li Shiyi a familiar high-five, who he had met before in the imperial capital. Then he turned to look at Tian Tian aside, smiling and spreading his arms:

"Old Tian, ​​I haven't seen you for a long time -"

The two hugged hard and then separated.

Tian Tian had an excited look on his face, and his eye circles were slightly red at this moment:

"Um."

"Really... years."

At this point, there is no suspense about the identity of the visitor.

Or perhaps people can already guess the answer from the previous conversation and expressions between Tian Tian and Li Shiyi——

After all, deliberately hiding something from someone and meeting in private like this, there is only one possibility for the identity of the person they are meeting.

The same partners who once stood side by side.

Teammates who fought hard on the field.

At this moment, standing in front of the dining table were three of the five-man lineup of the winning team.

Tian Tian, ​​the top orderer.

Li Shiyi in the jungle.

And, Mu Qiu in the auxiliary position.

Everything has been answered at this point. Indeed, on such an occasion, as Tian Tian and Li Shiyi were former members of the decisive team, it was naturally inappropriate for them to meet their former support partners and teammates. Or get involved.

However, there is still one question left——

What exactly is this kind of meal for?

…

When everyone arrived, Li Shiyi, Tian Tian and Mu Qiu sat down at the dining table again, and the proprietress of the restaurant came over again with the menu.

The three of them simply ordered a few dishes, but at Mu Qiu's request, they forcibly added a few more dishes. Unexpectedly, the proprietress found that this table was actually a "big business". The proprietress was extremely surprised. She smiled and agreed and immediately ran to the kitchen. get together.

Tian Tian at the table couldn't help but say:

"There are just three of us, so many dishes are too expensive."

Mu Qiu waved her hands carelessly:

"It's okay."

"I'm treating you today. We haven't seen each other for a long time, so we need to have a good meal."

Li Shiyi smiled:

"As expected of the Young Master of the internet cafe, his style is really different."

The three of them couldn't help laughing, and the atmosphere at the table suddenly became relaxed and happy.

As the proprietress served the dishes one by one, the three people at the table also chatted and laughed while eating. The topics they talked about included past events and each other's subsequent experiences.

Tian Tian couldn't help but sigh:

"I have long thought of going to Xiacheng to find you, Aqiu."

"It's a pity that the schedule was too tight at the time and I couldn't take time off."

There was a hint of guilt in his tone.

Mu Qiuxiao: "I know you are busy. The core ace of the KG team and the number one top laner in the national server. I am already thankful that you can still think about me, an old teammate -"

The joke made Li Shiyi next to him laugh and echo:

"Yes, Lao Tian is now an all-star figure in the national server. He is the kind of person who has everything on his plate."

The joke between the two teammates made Tian Tian blush with embarrassment:

"Don't make fun of me—"

"My level... doesn't matter."

However, these words made Mu Qiu suddenly look serious:

"That's no need to be modest."

"Anyone who came out of our team back then should be standing at the top of the pyramid now."

"Without a doubt."

Here's an update, it's the third day of an intense meeting, and I still have a week before I can go home. . . See you tomorrow, guys.
