rush to score

Chapter 20

Lu Simiao stood aside with a troubled expression.

Liang Xi took off his mask, leaned on his knees to breathe, and his heart was pounding.In the last sword, the two people were too close, and they moved too fast. Although he felt that he should score, the referee is the one who makes the final decision. law changes.

"Hmm..." Lu Simiao muttered to himself, and finally, after long consideration, awarded the points to Luo Mao.

He said that Luo Mao was the attacker, and Liang Xi fought back defensively, but Luo Mao counterattacked again, so when the two stabbed at the same time, Luo Mao had the initiative and Luo Mao got the points.

Liang Xi had no objection to this, and stood up and walked to the middle of the venue to shake hands with Luo Mao.

"It's so cool!" Luo Mao stroked his hair back, shaking off the sweat from his hair, and smiled with white teeth all over his mouth, "Liang Xi, I really hope you can join the team, you must participate in the trials .”

Liang Xi could see that Luo Mao was a "sword idiot", and he liked whoever made him "play well".

"Thank you." Liang Xi did not directly answer his invitation to participate.

Peng Jianxiu stood up and applauded, showing his appreciation to Liang Xi without hesitation: "Not bad boy, today's game was really good."

"Coach." Lu Simiao felt very guilty. He touched his nose in embarrassment, "I didn't make a mistake, did I? Whose was the last sword?"

Peng Jianxiu laughed and said, "Are you the referee or am I the referee?"

"I."

"Then it's over, you are the referee and you have the final say." Peng Jianxiu has nothing to do with himself, and he dragged everyone out, "Okay, that's all about today's game, go upstairs and let me go Eat, brother Gao Yi treats you, don't take advantage of him!"

A group of people went upstairs in a mighty manner, Liang Xi excused himself to be slow in changing clothes, and stayed in the dressing room at the back for a while... He was a little confused now.

No one mentioned it, but Liang Xi knew that he didn't play well.

Although the score was recovered in the second half and the game was only lost by one point in the end, I was really unprofessional because I was distracted because of Lu Mingchuan.

He admitted that what Lu Mingchuan said was right, he still thought about messy things during the competition, this kind of player didn't deserve to win the competition.

And Liang Xi has already made two mistakes in this regard, and both of them happened to be seen by Lu Mingchuan.

When I meet him again in a while, what will that person say?

Lu Mingchuan might tell him disappointedly that after all these years, you still haven't made any progress.

Liang Xi had already thought out his lines for him.

Just as Liang Xi was thinking about something, a person walked out of the wine cellar's winding passage, but suddenly met Lu Mingchuan's gaze at the elevator entrance.

The man was leaning against the wall of the elevator hall, smoking a cigarette.

Liang Xi didn't know when he learned to smoke, but the strong smell of tar in the hall still reminded Liang Xi that Lu Mingchuan had been standing here for some time.

The moment Lu Mingchuan saw Liang Xi, he stubbed out the cigarette butt in his hand, and walked towards him with an unrecognizable expression.He didn't speak, just stared at Liang Xi, as if he was thinking or examining.

Liang Xi's heart sank, knowing that today's matter could not be fooled.

Unable to bear the overly quiet atmosphere, he asked dryly, "Didn't you go up?" He avoided Lu Mingchuan's gaze, moved his gaze down, and looked at Lu Mingchuan's Adam's apple.

Lu Mingchuan didn't answer his question immediately, but paused for a long time before saying, "You know better than anyone that that's just an excuse, don't you?"

Liang Xi couldn't even look at his Adam's apple anymore, so he simply lowered his head and stared at the floor.

Of course he knew that Lu Mingchuan just saw that he hadn't been able to concentrate on the game, so he made an excuse to go out.Liang Xi became more and more ashamed by what he said... Lu Mingchuan already had a girlfriend, but he couldn't continue playing just because that person looked at him.

He could convince himself that he cared too much about Lu Mingchuan's opinion, but why did he care?

How could Lu Mingchuan not understand?

He likes him. After so many years, this feeling that shouldn't exist is still burning hot.

Hearing Lu Mingchuan sigh, Liang Xi told him in a very helpless voice: "Every year, people have to grow up. You can't keep staring at the past. You know, people will change. Maybe I am not what you imagined now. Where is that Lu Mingchuan in the middle? You for..."

"I won't do it for anyone!" Liang Xi suddenly interrupted Lu Mingchuan, and stretched out his hand to cover his ears.

Although in the next second, he realized that he had overreacted and quickly let go, however, his childish behavior had already shown the meaning of "refusal to communicate".

Liang Xi thought that Lu Mingchuan could save him some face.

At least at this time, he will not expose his years of delusion, peel off the superficial peace, put it in front of him frankly, and then tell him: You should stop staring at me, you must recognize the reality, and stop Waste of useless time on me.

"I don't do it for anyone... I'm just a little nervous, okay?" Liang Xi raised his head cautiously, looked into Lu Mingchuan's eyes, put his hands behind his back awkwardly, and squeezed his fingertips tightly together.

He watched Lu Mingchuan's expression change from astonishment to deepness that he couldn't understand. The underground air circulation is not good, and the tar smell left by smoking makes people feel depressed. It is the smell produced by the gradual transformation of shredded tobacco into dead ash. .

The central air conditioner kept emitting a low hum.

Under Liang Xi's gaze, Lu Mingchuan had no choice but to nod in agreement with his statement: "Success, you are just a little nervous because you are playing against Luo Mao."

"Yes." Liang Xi replied, turned around and pressed the elevator button, turned his back to Lu Mingchuan and stopped looking at him, "Let's go up, they should be waiting."

The two walked all the way up from the basement level, passed through the green bamboo forest and trickling water, and stepped on the gray cross road from left to right, walking in unison.

Liang Xi thought, if this was four years ago, he would have imagined this moment as a hidden romance, and then waited for someone to chew on it over and over again... However, time has passed, this pure and passionate love when he was young The taste has already changed.

It's true that they are still excited, but the relationship between them has indeed become unfamiliar.

Liang Xi began to feel confused, he thought, maybe what Lu Mingchuan said was right, they were no longer the person in the other's imagination, they relied on inertia to maintain a precarious relationship, and if they were not careful, they would lose everything.

Lu Mingchuan didn't know what he was thinking, walked to the door of the box, and suddenly changed the subject.

"The last point is yours."

"Huh?" The channel jumped too fast, Liang Xi didn't keep up.

Lu Mingchuan held on to the door of the box, and Luo Mao's loud voice could be faintly heard from inside. The man seemed not to have heard him, and looked at Liang Xi intently, and told him: "I saw the last sword, you touched Luo Mao at last. Mao's sword cannot be seen from Lu Simiao's perspective, but if it is an official game and requires a replay, this point will be yours."

"Didn't you go out?"

"I'm back again." Lu Mingchuan smiled, stretched out his hand and wanted to rub Liang Xi's hair like he did when he was a child, but he didn't know what to think, he turned a corner halfway, put a touch on his shoulder, and he left with a touch, "Peng Jianxiu should have seen it too Yes, that old fox is careful."

Liang Xi let out an "oh", and the place Lu Mingchuan touched felt hot.

Lu Mingchuan didn't say anything more to him, he stretched out his hand and opened the door of the box, two people came in step by step, the box was already filled with a lively atmosphere.After all, today is Xu Gaoyi's birthday. The birthday star ran all over the venue, greeted him for drinks, and dragged his teammates to meet the brothers in his life circle.

The clubhouse was very lively, Lu Simiao and Luo Mao were crazy people, tossing Liang Xi and Lu Mingchuan to drink, and after a table of wine and food, Liang Xi also had an abnormal blush on his deserted face.

The food was about the same, so Peng Jianxiu proposed to leave first.

Xu Gaoyi persuaded him to keep it for a while longer, but Peng Jianxiu refused on the grounds that the middle-aged man could not bear it.

Immediately everyone knew that Peng Jianxiu came to such a gathering today to celebrate his apprentice's birthday is secondary, and probably the most important thing is to watch Liang Xi's game.Now that the game has been watched and the meal is about the same, naturally he won't mess around with a bunch of young people anymore.

Xu Gaoyi tried to persuade him a few more words, and sent him away politely.

Liang Xi didn't drink well, but it wasn't too bad. After drinking a few glasses of beer, although he blushed, he was still conscious.He raised his eyes and looked at his phone. This meal lasted from 06:30 to 09:30. It has been long enough. He was thinking of a reason to go home when Lu Simiao grabbed his wrist. .

"Go, go, turn around!"

Liang Xi shivered, and quickly asked, "Where are you going?"

He didn't dare to underestimate this baby face now, he looked like a little sheep, and Lu Simiao was the one who drank the most in this group of people.He followed Xu Gaoyi around the drinking game, Xu Shouxing got drunk, and began to talk without edge, but his baby-faced eyes were still clear, and he took care of all aspects.

"Young man, it's hard to be let out by the coach to play for a while, why don't you go to the night club?"

Liang Xi was startled: "Where are you going? What if the media writes about it?" His worries were not superfluous. Others in the team did not mention it, but Lu Simiao, a "little Internet celebrity", was already there. enough to write.

Not to mention that there are several members of the national team in the group. If this is written about going to a nightclub, the social impact will be great.

Lu Simiao and Luo Mao laughed happily: "Where do you want to go, let's find a private game hall with a night show, where there are drinks and board games, it's worth the trip."

"..." Liang Xi felt that he had been in country A for a long time, and when it came to entertainment, his mind was full of unrestrained things.

He glanced at his watch again: "Forget it, it's too late today, I don't know so many people well, so it's pointless to go." He's really not a social guy, and he doesn't have much interest in such activities.

"Go!" Lu Simiao ignored his opinion, waited for Xu Gaoyi to settle the bill, and pulled Liang Xi not to let him go, "Let's go play together and we'll get acquainted, and Lu Mingchuan will also go, you two should be acquainted Hurry up, big boys, don't be so morose."

Liang Xi couldn't understand why Lu Mingchuan followed them to make trouble, just like he couldn't understand why he agreed in a flash of his head.

This is a wrong decision, he should firmly refuse, go home and fall asleep, so that he will not be able to see those messy things, and he...

When Jiang Xiajiao came, they were playing "German Heart Disease" around the table, a card game that tested reaction and memory ability, and they made an appointment for the loser to draw one from the penalty card to do so.

At twelve o'clock in the morning, every boy present was drunk, and Liang Xi was no exception. He saw that everyone was a double image, and it became difficult to figure out the suit of the cards on the table. thing.

Sitting next to him, Lu Mingchuan smelled like fresh fruit wine all over his body.

That man usually looks serious, but he can't hide his ruffian anger when he drinks alcohol. He sits on the sofa with his slender legs sprawled out, one hand just resting on Liang Xi's shoulder and using him as an armrest. Holding the cards, he focused his eyes on the suits on the table.

Liang Xi's brain nerves had been completely eroded by alcohol. When Lu Mingchuan picked him up, he didn't respond at all. He just poked his head to look at the cards in Lu Mingchuan's hand.

Being discovered by that person, he put his hand away, hugged Liang Xi and said with a wicked smile, "You're not good, why do you always want to see the cards in brother's hand?"

Liang Xi only thought about winning or losing, and being pointed out by him, he was not only shameless, but also annoyed: "What's wrong with taking a look? You are allowed to look at mine, and I am not allowed to look at yours?"

"When did I read yours..." Lu Mingchuan glanced at the card in Liang Xi's hand, raised his chin, "I said I want to read it, do you want to show it to my brother?"

"Look! You can look at it as you like!" Liang Xi directly turned the card over to Lu Mingchuan, without saying a word, "What did I not let you know? It's a broken game, why don't you show it?" Liang Xi He spoke quite loudly, and while laughing, he spread out the cards in his hand one by one, like a child getting angry, and gave up playing the game seriously.

This incident caused Luo Mao to yell that it was unfair, and Lu Simiao also got into the game: "Don't bring such a thing! You two are older brothers and younger brothers, and you are sticky and cheating on each other!"

The remaining few boys also catered, and the scene became chaotic for a while.

Lu Mingchuan didn't care about the movement around him. He listened to Liang Xi's words, he was stunned for a while, and then he came back to his senses, and then said: "Don't watch it, it's fun." He said, but didn't move his hands from Liang Xi's body open.

Jiang Xiajiao pushed the door and came in under such circumstances, and even the boss who opened the game hall followed her behind and babbled: "Hey, girl, the inside is booked."

"My boyfriend is inside." She walked in unceremoniously, her gaze fell directly on Lu Mingchuan, and she even looked at the hand he was holding on Liang Xi's shoulder.

"Why are you here?" Lu Mingchuan raised his eyelids, and moved his hands away calmly, "I thought we talked clearly before."

A group of boys hadn't gotten off their nerves yet, and they didn't see the weirdness between the couple at all. They just started booing when they saw Jiang Xiajiao. Xu Gaoyi seemed to have a good relationship with her, and walked over and said, "Hey, brother and sister are here? Just sit down Play together."
