My brother is so cool

Lou Jin focused on brushing Ji Weimin's favorability, and paid attention to the conversation here.

Seeing Ji Yang's silence, he thought for a while and said: "The career of an e-sports player is very short, and becoming a professional player will affect his studies. Three to five years of glory at most is not the best way out."

Xu Tianlang said seriously: "Brother Lou, do you think that I will have a good future when I go to university? I know very well that my grades are not good. Even if I am a student in art and sports, it will be difficult for me to get out of this circle after graduation. With my Ability, even if you can't be an outstanding athlete, even if you become a coach in the end, that is, a grassroots coach, that's the way it is in this life."

"Then when we talk about e-sports, my aunt and uncle may think that it is a game, which is not doing business properly, but in fact, e-sports has been recognized internationally as a new type of competition. Without losing to any sport, we must admit that there is no difference between a professional player and a professional athlete."

"Since you can accept me to go to the sports academy and learn badminton, why can't you accept me as an e-sports player?"

I don't know how long Xu Tianlang prepared for this passage. He finished it in one breath, and before he had time to catch his breath, he continued, "Auntie, uncle, if we start from the perspective of a regular professional player, you don't think I have a huge advantage?"

"The first step for the game being developed by Brother Lou and Brother Lou is to enter the platform of the International E-sports League and promote it to become a game that sells well all over the world. Since I have the opportunity to get first-hand information, I can Why should I pass up this opportunity when I come into contact with this game?"

"They develop the game, and I'm a professional player. Together, we will promote this game to the world. This is a rare opportunity that complements each other!"

Xu Tianlang's words fell into the ears of Ji Weimin and Xu Zhilan, not to mention deafening, but also had a profound impact on them, and even in a short period of time, they almost overturned some of their perceptions over the years.

There was a moment of silence at the table.

Xu Tianlang tried his best to say these words, his eyes were red, but he quickly calmed down. The inferiority complex in this family was born again, and he looked down at the table, not daring to look at anyone.

a while.

Ji Weimin coughed.

Xu Tianlang's eyelashes trembled.

"That..." Ji Weimin said, "Your idea is good, I agree with it very much, but there are two things we need to confirm first."

Xu Tianlang looked up at him, his eyes sparkling.

Ji Weimin said: "First of all, you are admitted to university."

Xu Tianlang nodded: "Definitely."

Ji Weimin added: "None of us can say for sure what will happen to the game your brother and the others develop. If it is really possible to apply to become an international... what kind of game league, I have no objection to your efforts."

Ji Chengcheng spoke quickly: "International competitive leagues, supported by the National Sports Federation, are a new type of competition officially approved by the national government department. It can be said to be a kind of athlete, that's right."

Xu Zhilan was a little uneasy, and pulled Ji Weimin's hand: "Is this really okay? It's a game..."

Ji Weimin patted her hand to comfort her: "Times have changed. Even if we can't keep up with the times, we can't let the children fall behind with us. New things are not all wrong, just like an old saying, 360 lines are all right. If you are the top pick, you can get ahead if you play the game well, right?"

Xu Zhilan had nothing to say, she sighed and nodded.

Xu Tianlang's face instantly seemed to be lit up with stars all over the sky, extremely bright.

Ji Chengcheng was more excited than Xu Tianlang, and raised his hands high: "I, I want to play games too! I want to be a professional gamer too!"

No one cares about him.

Xu Zhilan said to Xu Tianlang: "Since you want to be a professional player, you also need to go to university, you know?"

Ji Weimin smiled: "Come on, now that you have motivation, you should study more seriously."

Ji Wenwen said, "Wow, is my cousin going to be an e-sports master?"

Lou Jin smiled and said, "The college entrance examination is in June this year, and the game just happens to be made. Come to the company for training then."

Only Ji Yang smiled complicatedly.

Unexpectedly, in the end, Xu Tianlang still followed the old path.Fortunately, this time it was his own choice after careful consideration, instead of standing up from the mud, regarding his loved ones as the biggest enemies, and launching revenge and counterattacks.

And if he can go to university, it will make his choice more calm. Even if he retires to become an e-sports coach in the future, the salary of a coach with a college degree is higher than that of a high school graduate.

It's a good thing after all.

Besides, Xu Tianlang is destined to become a generation of e-sports gods, won the love of countless fans at home and abroad, such fame and fortune, what can I stop?

"Then it's settled." Ji Yang slapped his palms, "Lang Lang, come on for the exam. You get admitted to university, we develop games, and we will succeed together in the future!"

"Ok!"

Xu Tianlang had never smiled so brightly before, he nodded heavily, unable to close the corners of his mouth.

perhaps.

This year's Spring Festival is the day Xu Tianlang was reborn.

They had a big dinner, watched the Spring Festival Gala, got tired of playing poker around the coffee table, turned on the Internet, and in a blink of an eye, the clock struck midnight, and the fireworks on the TV were brilliant, and the excitement was extraordinary. Xu Tianlang's smile drove away the blackness between his brows , showing the lofty pride that is about to hit the sky.

"Ding dong!"

"Ding dong!"

"Ding dong!"

The text messages for New Year's greetings kept ringing, Ji Chengcheng flaunted, holding up the phone: "It's so annoying, my text messages are almost full, maybe there are a hundred messages?"

He asked Ji Wenwen: "How many messages have you received?"

Ji Wenwen curled up her legs on the sofa to watch the drama on her mobile phone, and ignored him.

He asked Ji Yang: "How many messages have you received?"

Ji Yang smiled, he was not very popular at school, if he hadn't become the boss now, probably only Zhao Wenjing would greet him in the New Year.

Ji Chengcheng retreated two "enemies" in a row, his expression gradually became wild, his eyes rolled, and he looked at Xu Tianlang: "How many messages have you received?"

Xu Tianlang was the only one who answered patiently: "There are only thirty or so, and they are all classmates in the class."

Like a victorious rooster, Ji Chengcheng raised his head and chest, and looked at Lou Jin: "Brother Lou, how many do you have?"

Lou Jin looked away from the TV screen and said, "I've adjusted the vibration, but there's no counting, just watch."

As he said, he handed the phone to Ji Chengcheng, and Ji Chengcheng opened it. He found that the text messages "432" and the WeChat messages "99" were unread. When he opened it, all of them were sent from unknown numbers and a few numbers with names. New Year's greetings message.

so much?

Ji Chengcheng felt apprehensive, and looked at his elder brother sympathetically. Isn't it very hard to find such a heart-throbbing boyfriend?Alas, my level is the best. I can give my girlfriend the sense of security she needs. Being a "heartbeater" is not good at all!

"Ding dong!" Ji Yang's cell phone rang again, and when he opened it to look, he didn't notice Lou Jin's gaze.

It's a WeChat, a WeChat from Luo Hui.

[Luo Hui: Happy New Year. 】

[Ji Yang: Happy New Year, is your injury healed? 】

【Luo Hui: Alright, I've found a new job. 】

[Ji Yang: Congratulations, what job? 】

[Luo Hui: In the marketing department of an Internet company, I just joined the job a few years ago, and I'm a leader. 】

[Ji Yang: Not bad, it's closer to home, and the marketing department is a department that is easy to fall in love with. 】

[Luo Hui: ...Xiao Liu said that you started your own company, but you are not in the factory, right?I'm curious, why don't you make an appointment to have dinner and talk? 】

[Ji Yang: No problem, you decide. 】

Before Luo Hui could reply, Ji Yang felt itchy on his face, and when he turned his head, he saw Lou Jin peeking at his chatting conversation in a grand manner, with a calm expression on his face: "When will we be together?"

Lou Jin frowned: "Are you still dating him?"

"Why can't we communicate?" Ji Yang was puzzled.

Lou Jin said: "Because he had a car accident, you went to the hospital every day to take care of him for half a month, and in the end you left without even saying hello, frivolous and unreliable, it's better to have less contact. "

"Meeting and chatting, it's about having a meal once in a while, and it's not about looking for a partner, so how can you be so demanding?" Ji Yang said, just when Luo Hui's message was sent, he replied casually, 【No problem. 】

The meeting time was set on the night of the third day of junior high school the day after tomorrow, in a large restaurant on the South Third Ring Road of the capital, where AA only eats Chinese food, and they are not allowed to drive and have to drink.

Ji Yang asked Lou Jin again: "Are you coming?"

Lou Jin didn't talk nonsense this time: "Go."

Ji Yang replied on WeChat, [Two people, Lou Jin and I. 】

Luo Hui didn't send any more messages back, and it seemed that the topic ended here, and the content that seemed to come to an end was a bit too abrupt, giving people a sense of uncertainty of an abrupt end.

Ji Yang held the phone and waited for a long time to confirm that Luo Hui really wouldn't reply, so he gave up.

Just when Xu Zhilan came out of the shower, her face was not very good-looking, and she said, "Yangyang, your father said that he will go to your grandparents' house tomorrow, will you go?"

Ji Yang thought for a while and nodded.

Xu Zhilan hesitated to speak, then looked at Lou Jin: "Is Lou Jin okay for Chinese New Year? Why don't you come with us?"

Lou Jin nodded.

Ji Chengcheng opened his eyes wide: "I'm going to my grandparents' house tomorrow? Why haven't I heard of it before?"

"Your dad and I just made it up. You guys go to bed early, and you'll be back in two days on the plane tomorrow morning."

Ji Chengcheng asked: "Shall we all go?"

Xu Zhilan nodded: "Yes, everyone will go, Lang Lang and Lou Jin will also go."

Ji Chengcheng heard a spark in his mother's words, he was a little confused, and murmured, "It seems that I haven't been to my grandparents' house for many, many years, right? They didn't come here either, I almost forgot what they looked like. "

With such a reminder, Ji Yang finally managed to dig out those fragmentary pictures from the corners of the memory palace.

……

Ji Yang's grandparents left early, and there was originally an uncle on her mother's side, but he disappeared two years ago, only Xu Tianlang is a relative.On the other hand, there are many relatives on my father's side.

Grandpa and grandma are in good health, and all the aunts and uncles are there, happy and happy.His father was the third child in the family, and he was the only family who had made a successful career abroad and settled in the capital to achieve a well-off life. His status in the family was very unusual.

Sitting on the co-pilot's seat, Ji Yang said casually: "...You know, boys develop relatively late. I was still a small man in the third grade of junior high school. I felt a little inferior when I faced the tall students around me. After it was over, my mother simply sent me back to live with my grandparents for a while.”

"That summer vacation, not only I lived at my grandparents' house, but also my cousin from my aunt's house, and his classmate who always came to play and sometimes even stayed overnight."

"Summer is very hot, and my grandparents' house is in the humid south. Without the fan, I put a layer of film on my body. I often chase after my cousins ​​shirtless, up and down the mountain, play cats and dogs, and play in the pond. Catching big dragonflies by the side, jumping on bullfrogs in the middle of the night, falling into the pond and taking a bath, not to mention how much fun it is.”

Lou Jin was driving, and when he heard this, he smiled knowingly, thinking that this was Ji Yang's childhood, a happy childhood, a childhood that made his heart itch and wanted to participate in it.

But soon, Ji Yang changed the subject and said: "After swimming in the pond, I ran home wet, and didn't dare to tell the adults. I quietly closed the door, took off my clothes and hung them on the electric fan, and thought I was sleeping. Once you feel it, everything will be fine.”

"I remember that night was especially hot, and the fan didn't work. I was like being put on a fire, frying over and over again, and smoke came out of my nostrils, ears, and mouth."

"During half-dream and half-awake, I suddenly opened my eyes and saw my brother's cousin's classmate. I remember his name was Ding Chenkai. He was past the age of development, with a protruding Adam's apple and fine fluff around the corner of his mouth. It looks sexy and intriguing."

The smile on the corner of Lou Jin's mouth disappeared, and he didn't care about driving, so he looked at Ji Yang twice.

Ji Yang seemed to be talking about other people's affairs, with a tired expression on his face, as if he would fall asleep in the next second.

Ji Yang said: "I stretched out my hand to touch it. The feeling in my hand was normal, but I didn't know which switch in my body I touched, and then there was an obvious change."

"I touched him like this, and I even poked him. No matter how tired I am from playing, I can't stand such an obvious action, and he will naturally wake up."

"You know, boys at that age are most afraid of losing face in front of their friends and classmates. Boys understand this kind of emotion late. Some men don't know how to love others even in their seventies and eighties. They are the legendary scumbags. Anyway, in the eyes of my cousin, my younger brother, whom I rarely see once a year, is an outsider."

"Then I was beaten up by my cousin and his classmates."
