Tang Xu was silent for a long time again, he lowered his head and didn't look into Lu Jing's eyes again.

But Lu Jing clearly saw the moment when Tang Xu's eyes were downcast.

"If you really want to do this...at least ask Manager Jin, Brother Xiao and the others." Tang Xu said.

"Okay, I'll tell them, but that's only because I learned that I'll tell them, so as not to make another headache for them." Lu Jing said, "If you want to use their mouths to persuade me, impossible."

Tang Xu nodded.

Lu Jing was more resolute than ever this time, because he knew that although Tang Xu kept refusing, he hoped that someone would stand by his side, and no one would want to be an isolated island forever.

To Lu Jing's surprise, when he expressed his wishes to Manager Jin and the others, he did not receive the expected stop.

"Are you sure you want to do this?" Manager Jin asked.

Now he seems to have become the mainstay in the meeting room, and everyone listens to his arrangements without any objection to him.

Lu Jing nodded: "Sure."

"Have you thought about the consequences?" Manager Jin asked, "Are you sure you can bear it?"

Lu Jing smiled: "If you get scolded, at most pack up and leave, it can't be worse, right?"

Manager Jin also smiled when he heard the words: "It's impossible to pack up and leave. The team will definitely advance and retreat with you. As long as you are not afraid of being scolded, that's fine."

Ah Jian, A Dun and the others heard that Lu Jing was going to post on Weibo, and they also clamored to support Tang Xu, but this time, Manager Jin and Zhang Xiao strongly rejected it.

"If you want to express your opinion, you just need to like the team's Weibo." Manager Jin said, "Although we have done nothing wrong and are not afraid of being scolded, we don't need to take the initiative to scold us."

So Lu Jing posted on Weibo, the content was only slightly edited by the operation sister, roughly meaning: Thank you for your concern, but I firmly support Tang Xu on this matter, Tang Xu is innocent, I hope everyone will stop private messages Let me draw a line with him.grateful.

After the Weibo was posted, Manager Jin refused to let him read it. It is useless to say that it is useless to read it. As long as you express what you should express, we will help you to keep an eye on the development of the situation.

"Should we release the recording of the haunted house first?" Zhang Xiao asked. In the recording of the haunted house, Li Ming admitted that he had facilitated Tang Xu's transfer, and also admitted that Tang Xu's hand injury had something to do with him. strong evidence.

"Don't wait." Manager Jin said, "Li Ming knows the existence of this recording, and he will definitely take countermeasures. For example, he can say that you coerced him into making this recording, or even if Li Ming facilitated it. Does the transfer prove that Tang Xu is not willing? Li Ming must have prepared enough evidence to turn black and white, just waiting for us to make a move. If we don't move, he can't move first."

Zhang Xiao was stunned when he heard that, but finally he could only nod his head.

Manager Jin thought for a while, and then said: "The focus now is to see the tricks. We should not take the initiative until we can guarantee a fatal blow, so as not to be caught by the opponent. On the contrary, since they are fabricating the facts, they say The more you learn, the more likely you are to reveal a flaw.”

"By the way, there is one more important thing." Manager Jin said, "Tang Xu, come on, look up."

Sitting next to Lu Jing all the time, Tang Xu, who lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes, raised his eyes and looked at Manager Jin in a daze.

"Remember, these microblogs are also a part of Li Ming's PUA. He doesn't necessarily expect to get you banned, because the facts he fabricated may not be true, but he can definitely imagine your reaction when he hears these news, he I firmly believe that you will collapse," Manager Jin said, "so you must hold on and don't let him succeed."

"I'm sorry, I tried my best, but I..." Tang Xu hesitated to speak, and finally just sighed.

Lu Jing knew that Tang Xu wanted to say that he was such a cowardly person by nature, so he squeezed Tang Xu's hand with some distress, thinking that it's okay, I'll protect you.

But at this moment, Manager Jin stared into Tang Xu's eyes, and said as if he had read his mind, "I must tell you, a person who is really weak and easy to bully cannot stand still after what happened three years ago. Here. So, trust yourself, you'll be fine."

After Manager Jin finished speaking, seeing Tang Xu nodded, he continued to arrange the next work.

Tang Xu stood there motionless for a long time, thoughtful.

When Manager Jin went to have a meeting with legal affairs and public relations, Zhang Xiao took them out of the meeting room.

"We have a game tomorrow." Zhang Xiao said, "According to the current situation, Brother Xu, should we avoid the limelight first and let Aaron start tomorrow?"

"No." Tang Xu said, "I want to go."

Zhang Xiao and Lu Jing were taken aback by these words.

"You rest tomorrow." Lu Jing said, he really didn't want Tang Xu to go, because he knew that Tang Xu must be very uncomfortable when he went through the peak to the bottom, and then returned to the peak but fell to the bottom again. .

What if there is silence in the field again tomorrow, and some people even booed, Lu Jing didn't want to see Tang Xu's suppressed sad expression again.

"I also think, Brother Xu, there's no need to be brave, it's just a game." Zhang Xiao said, "After a few days, when the limelight subsides, you can play again. Even if it's a normal game, wouldn't you still rotate once or twice a season?"

"If I don't go up, wouldn't I be telling Li Ming that I surrendered?" Tang Xu said, "Manager Jin is right, I think... I actually don't want to admit defeat."

-

The next day, 11:30 noon.

The LSG team assembled at the Hong Kong Stadium.

It was still an ordinary LPL regular season. During the identity check, Lu Jing had been standing nervously beside Tang Xu, and some fans from a distance—or should I say, the melon eaters—watched them, pointing in this direction and whispering. Whisper, doesn't look friendly.

In fact, Lu Jing had never experienced such a malicious scene, he was a little uncomfortable, but looking at Tang Xu beside him, he was very calm.

They didn't look at Weibo all night, because they knew that watching Weibo at such a time would only make their mood worse.

All the LSG players stood together, and the other staff consciously or unintentionally distanced themselves from them.Lu Jing tried his best to let himself ignore this point, but soon he saw the data of the team's power value appear on the four screens outside.

The power value of the team is that before the start of each game, fans can vote for their team, and the support rate will be displayed on the big screen at the end. In previous years, LSG had a [-]-[-] win against anyone.

But today, the big screen shows that LSG's support rate is 26%.

Opposite is a team that ranks 18th among all 12 teams in the LPL without any star players.

The auditorium under the stage was pitch black, and there were no supporters on the opposite side, and neither did they.

Only then did Lu Jing have a sense of reality, and the situation was even worse than they thought.

The bleakness in the field of vision is enough to explain the fans' misunderstanding of them.His heart sank fiercely, and even though A Jian and A Dun and the others beside him didn't say anything, they could see that they were also very sad.

Lu Jing looked at Tang Xu, even though she felt very uncomfortable at this time, she was afraid that Tang Xu would suffer more than him.

Tang Xu, who was standing in front of him, turned around and smiled at him at this moment, mouthing, "I'm fine."

They come on stage.

In the debut session, LSG got an unprecedented silence.When the host called out Tang Xu's ID, Tang Xu took a step forward.He was greeted with boos.

Booing is a great contempt for players, and players who fight fake matches should be booed.

The problem is, Tang Xu didn't play match-fixing.

At this moment, Lu Jing's palms were cold, he didn't care about being on stage, and turned to look at Tang Xu's expression.

To his surprise, Tang Xu remained calm, even smiled slightly, bowed and returned to his original position.

Not that kind of forced laugh, but as if...the sound of booing didn't affect him at all.

But the booing had an impact on Lu Jing, and even on the entire LSG team. He sat back in his seat in a daze, and when he didn't even notice that he was called, there was deathly silence on the field.

Games start.

Hero selection is banned.

"How do we fight today?" Zhang Xiao asked.

"Take whatever you want." Atta said, "It feels like everyone is not in the mood to discuss tactics."

"Yes." Lu Jing agreed.

So Atta locked the top order he was going to play, and then it was the opposite's turn. It was originally time for chatting, but the team's voice was silent.It was obvious that everyone was affected by the sudden incident last night.

Lu Jing's mind was very confused, but when she watched the game, all she could think of was those hurtful and sarcastic remarks on Weibo.He really wanted to tell the fans, you made a mistake, you misunderstood us, and we didn't have fake matches.

But no matter what he can say, no one will believe what he said. Li Ming is free and easy, and Du Hui spouts blood. Their statements have no effect. They sit here and suffer the outraged boos of the misguided audience.

What is more painful than being scolded is the pain of being misunderstood despite not doing anything.

Good people are wronged, but bad people are punished. This may be the so-called "joke of fate".

At this moment, Lu Jing suddenly couldn't figure out how Tang Xu survived all this three years ago.He felt that it was impossible for him to do it himself.

The opponent's hero selection is very slow, because they are seriously thinking about what kind of routine they want to play.But this kind of slowness is tantamount to torture for LSG at the moment.

"...It's stupid." Finally Ah Jian couldn't help but said, "Why?"

"Why are you messing with us like this?" A Dun also said, his voice was crying faintly, "Why does Li Ming bully people, why don't they trust us."

"It's so uncomfortable." Atta's voice was trembling.He couldn't help punching the mouse pad, but he didn't dare to use too much force.

"Don't worry." Lu Jing endured the same suffering and comforted him, "It will pass, bear with it."

At this time, it was Tang Xu's turn to choose a hero.

Unexpectedly, Tang Xu showed the rock sparrow.One version is not a strong jungler.

Tang Xu rarely played this hero, and it wasn't a very suitable choice.Lu Jing was taken aback by this sudden choice, not understanding why Tang Xu chose this way.

"Choose rock sparrow?" Zhang Xiao asked blankly.

"Yeah." Tang Xu smiled, "Because I have something to tell you."

Then, he pressed "OK".

Accompanied by the crisp sound effect of the hero lock, the heroic voice of the rock sparrow sounded in Honggang Stadium, and the youthful but firm voice instantly resounded in the ears of every audience, every staff member, and every player on the scene.

Lu Jing, who had a dazed expression on his face, suddenly opened his eyes wide. At this moment, he suddenly understood Tang Xu's intention in choosing the rock sparrow.

Rock sparrow's lines are only eight short words.

These eight words are Tang Xu, after experiencing more than three years of nightmares, raised his head in the darkness, facing the light, to himself, to Lu Jing, to his teammates, to this person who was so cruel to him but still gave him tenderly. The oath shouted out by the world he wanted—

"Fate is like a weave, it should be a rock."
