did i call your name

For the first time, Qiu Sinian actually agreed to Xue Yiming's invitation to let him go to the club. Before Xue Yiming mentioned e-sports to him, he didn't care much, and he didn't bother to listen.

Maybe it's because that kid also plays e-sports?Anyway, Qiu Sinian somehow became interested and a little curious.

"It's so strange." Xue Yiming brushed his face and entered the base, "I asked you to come over to see my results 800 years ago. It's not uncommon for you to come here. Today is the fairy man descending to earth? Finally willing to land?"

Qiu Sinian looked up at the building in front of him, the huge logo of the KE club hung on the top.

"KE Club?" Qiu Sinian muttered to himself, the name sounded familiar.

"I just said you are prematurely aging." Xue Yiming rolled his eyes, "How many times have I mentioned it to you, but I never remember it."

"You mentioned it to me?" Qiu Sinian had no impression.

Xue Yiming sent another supercilious look.

The decoration style of the base is trendy and cool, and the overall color is black, white and gray. As soon as you enter the door, you can see the various trophies won by the KE team and the group photos of the players when they won the awards, all locked in a glass cabinet.

This is their honor, and it is the witness of every growth of the KE team along the way.

Qiu Sinian didn't look carefully, but glanced at it hastily, and didn't notice the smiling boy surrounded by the crowd in the photo.

The training room is on the first floor. As soon as Xue Yiming entered, several boys who were still training immediately put down their mice and stood up, full of surprise: "Boss?!"

"Are you practicing?" Xue Yiming assumed the posture of an adult as soon as he arrived in front of these children, with a serious and serious tone.

"Why are you back? Aren't you going to stay in Shanghai for a few months?" These boys are not afraid of him, after all, Xue Yiming is not much older than them, and Xue Yiming, as the owner of the club, has no airs at all, and always talks to these children Just kidding, before retiring, he was also an ancient god in the e-sports circle, and many people in the club were still his fans back then.

"Come back and deal with some things." Xue Yiming pretended to be serious in front of Qiu Sinian, and had to show the majesty of the boss, "Where's PURE?"

"Captain, he went out for a night run."

Someone recognized Chou Sinian, Chen Yi pointed at him and said in surprise, "You..."

"What's the matter? Do you know him?" Xue Yiming turned to look at Qiu Sinian.

Qiu Sinian had no impression of this boy. He tilted his head and saw the photo hanging on the wall. Now he saw it clearly, and he saw the freshman in the photo at a glance.

Qiu Sinian walked over without thinking, and looked up at the photo carefully.

The boy in the photo was hugged by the person next to him. Tears welled up in the corners of his eyes, but the corners of his mouth were raised.

I love to cry.

Qiu Sinian chuckled inwardly.

In the first year of high school, he was still young, only sixteen or seventeen years old. It was the first time he won the championship, and it was the first time he hugged the championship trophy with his teammates as a professional player.

The boy's face was green and immature, and his chestnut-colored smooth hair became like a little golden retriever.

Age is a thing to compare, Qiu Sinian stared at the kid in the photo silently, and it was the first time he felt that he was an old thing.

If there is really something, it is really an old cow eating young grass.

He found that he was really not qualified to say that her aunt gnawed tender grass.

"What are you looking at?" Xue Yiming walked over.

"It's nothing." Qiu Sinian shook his head.

He Yanqing ran back at night, and was also surprised when he saw Xue Yiming, panting: "Boss? Why are you back?" He glanced at Qiu Sinian next to Xue Yiming, and his expression became even more surprised: "You are..."

Qiu Sinian remembered He Yanqing, but pretended that he had never seen him before, and gave him a polite and natural smile.

He Yanqing pretended that he didn't remember himself, and couldn't ask any more questions, so he could only smile back.

Xue Yiming was busy greeting Chou Sinian and didn't talk much with those kids.

"It's too natural for them to call you boss." Qiu Sinian sat on the sofa, "That sounds really awkward."

"I asked them to shout like this. In the early years, I kept calling the boss, which was awkward, and made me like a gangster." Xue Yiming poured him a cup of tea, "I'm the owner of the club now, okay? Think of me as a professional player."

Qiu Sinian smiled: "Vanity."

Xue Yiming said seriously: "The boss is the boss. They always call me that, and I can't help but recall the past. Do you understand what I mean?"

Qiu Sinian was silent for a few seconds, then nodded: "Understood."

"When the time comes to be hypocritical again, it will be endless again." Xue Yiming couldn't help laughing at himself, "Hey, when I get older, I start to hurt the spring and the autumn."

Qiu Sinian couldn't help chuckling, the two old men were so conscious.

Chou Sinian patted him on the shoulder, comforting him carelessly: "I'm not yet 30, so it's a bit ideal."

In fact, Xue Yiming's obedience to the old and Qiu Sinian can't empathize with each other. The nature of the two people is different.

A man in his thirties is at the peak of his life, how can he be old?

Although Qiu Sinian is 29, he has only just graduated with a Ph.D. and has only been working for two years. He is different from Xue Yiming.

A person who has been in the e-sports circle alone since he was a teenager, for him who loves e-sports, the most precious thing is that short and cruel time. It is almost the most meaningful journey in life. That's how it went.

The rest of life, no matter how brilliant or envied by others, is plain.

Xue Yiming sighed lightly.

Without waiting for him to be hypocritical, Qiu Sinian took out his mobile phone and found Qiu Chen's circle of friends.

"Do you know this boy?" Qiu Sinian pointed to the photo of Qiu Chen and Gao Yi and asked Xue Yiming, "Is he from your club?"

"Gone?" Xue Yiming looked at the boy on the phone screen in surprise, "You two know each other?"

"En." Qiu Sinian nodded.

Xue Yiming suddenly realized: "You were staring at the photo just now, were you looking at him? Why didn't you tell me when I asked you?"

Qiu Sinian hid his small thoughts and didn't want to admit that he knew Gao Yi. If Gao Yi really had conflicts with the club players, his relationship with Xue Yiming might become another after-dinner conversation among the team members.

For example, having a backing has something to do with it.

At that time, the child will probably cry again due to grievances.

Thinking of the watery eyes in the first day of high school, Qiu Sinian frowned.Don't deny it, it hurts.

After all, he was an old friend for many years, Xue Yiming could see through his thoughts at a glance, and said sharply, "Are you afraid of what those people will say?"

"Huh?" Qiu Sinian still hasn't recovered.

"What's your relationship with him?"

"It doesn't matter." Qiu Sinian took a sip of tea, "I just know each other, the team member you mentioned before who terminated the contract is... him?"

"It's him." Speaking of this, Xue Yiming became angry, "This bear has a really bad temper, and he can't be screwed no matter what!"

Bear thing?

Qiu Sinian gave him a vague look.

Judging by the tone and address, it seems that his old friend has a very close relationship with the first year of high school?

"I came back for this matter. This bear has terminated the contract without saying a word, and no one told me, so he just let him go." Xue Yiming was so angry, "Treat my boss as air."

Xue Yiming knew the reason why Gao Yi voluntarily terminated the contract. Just as Qiu Sinian guessed, he and Gao Yi had a very good relationship. Speaking of Gao Yi, he was still his little fan at the beginning. Qian came to watch his games, the e-sports industry was still in the doldrums at that time, the competitions were not so formal, the scale was not large, there were not many e-sports stars, and there were only a few who had a large number of fans.

Xue Yiming met Gao Yi even earlier than He Yanqing.

"He was only in the first year of junior high school." Xue Yiming began to recall the past, "I was terrified, so I ran out of town to watch the game alone when I was a little older. I didn't have any fans at that time. Did I just play professional games? How long has it been since I haven't even touched a trophy..."

Xue Yiming wanted to burst into tears as he said that, feeling sad, "I didn't win that game at the time, and when I went out, I saw him standing there alone, it was nothing at all, there were only a few fans, and they would leave if they lost the game Yes, he's still standing there, I almost couldn't hold back when I saw it..."

"He joined the club because of you?" Qiu Sinian interrupted Xue Yiming and Gao Yi's miserable memories.

"That's not true." Xue Yiming's throat was a little choked, and he coughed twice, "He Yanqing brought him in. I haven't seen him since that game. I almost didn't recognize him when He Yanqing brought him here. It must have been four years..."

"I thought he came to the KE team because he admired me, but he told me that he was short of money." Xue Yiming said with a smile, "In the column of the reason for joining the team, there are two words 'lack of money ',Really are……"

Hearing this, Qiu Sinian was inexplicably relieved.

Xue Yiming knew Gao Yi well, knew his temperament well, and knew that he couldn't do that kind of thing.

But this bear turned his back on him, and angrily terminated the contract without saying a word or making any excuses.

"Why did he terminate the contract?" Qiu Sinian asked.

"Fake matches." Xue Yiming took out a cigarette, unlit it, and bit it in his mouth. "It was revealed on the Internet that he was playing fake matches."

"Fighting fake matches..." Qiu Sinian lowered his head in thought, and suddenly asked, "Do you believe it?"

"If I believe it, I won't come back." Xue Yiming sneered, "How dare you stay with me during a match-fixing match?"

"It's just like him. He's just a fake match. His temper is straight and stern." Xue Yiming frowned. I admit in disguise that I played a match-fixing match, and I don’t know what’s in my head.”

Xue Yiming hates iron but not steel.

"It's a bit stupid." Qiu Sinian nodded, "And a bit arrogant."

"You can see that?" Xue Yiming chuckled with a cigarette in his mouth, "He was very proud, and he couldn't get along with his teammates. It's much better now. When he first came in, he would be like an autistic child, and no one would take care of him. .”

Xue Yiming sighed: "He is highly talented, so he is too confident, so he will inevitably be arrogant, and he lacks communication with his teammates. He has been in the team for almost three years, and He Yanqing and Lu Jun have a better relationship with him."

Qiu Sinian has never seen the appearance of a high school competition. Compared with what he felt when he got along with the high school, the high school playing e-sports is the real pride, especially when he first joined the club. Not too much.

At that time, he was young in the first grade of high school, and he had some skills, and he was also very strong, like a young dragon who had not yet experienced the world, powerful and violent, difficult to tame.

"It's much better now." Xue Yiming bit his cigarette, "At first I saw him silent, and thought he was very good, but it made me worry. At that time, there was no psychological counselor to enlighten them. Let me pour chicken soup for the soul..."

Qiu Si smiled young: "So difficult?"

"Whether it's difficult or difficult, we have to get him back." Xue Yiming revealed his businessman's nature, and began to be quiet: "I'm pointing at him to make money for me."

"You have a good face and good skills, so you can't just let it go." Xue Yiming raised his legs, "It's hard to cultivate an e-sports star, what if other clubs poach him?"

Having said that, Xue Yiming knew very well that no club with a high reputation would ask for a freshman year.

The crackdown on match-fixing has had a huge impact. It is difficult to calm down and let the freshman return to the team smoothly.

"I'm going back." Qiu Sinian stood up suddenly.

Xue Yiming was taken aback for a moment, almost unable to react, "You should listen to me at least? Why are you so surprised that you are about to leave again?"

Qiu Sinian pointed to his watch, "It's nine o'clock."

Xue Yiming understood, and waved his hand, "Understood, go back to sleep quickly, old man."

Qiu Sinian's habit of going to bed at ten o'clock was developed since childhood. Although Xue Yiming couldn't understand it, he also admired Qiu Sinian's almost abnormal restraint, and he was relaxed and measured in everything he did.

What Xue Yiming said, some Chou Sinian had a half-knowledge. He is a layman and doesn't know the situation in the e-sports circle, but he listened to all the stories Xue Yiming told about the first year of high school.

He listened very carefully and forgot himself.

In Xue Yiming's slow introduction to the life fragments experienced in the first year of high school, Qiu Sinian seems to have experienced it too.

Ming Ming is not very old, but it seems that he has experienced all the heartache and pain.

Qiu Sinian thought again of Gao Yi's expression when he mentioned that he didn't have parents. It was calm and numb, and it was hard to tell if it was a compromise or he didn't care at all.

He really felt sympathetic at that time, after all, compared with his smooth life, not having parents is already unimaginably sad.

Sadness may just be what he thought, because when the child laughed, he looked like a little sun.

The phone rang, and Qiu Sinian stared at the screen for a few seconds.

He has a good memory and has an impression of this string of numbers.

"Hello." Qiu Sinian answered the phone.

"Hello? You... haven't come back yet?" Little Sun's voice came from the other end of the phone.

Gently waxy, but also a little timid.
