know this [Ye Zhou]

After the Spring Festival, the regular season entered the second half.Xingxin, which is ranked fifth, sits at home and ushered in the reincarnation of being at the top of the list.

Samsara is still strong, and Xingxin has long been reborn, it is no longer the rookie team when it first entered the alliance.

Xingxin took all three points in the individual competition, and Samsara had the last laugh in the group arena. It seemed that they were evenly matched.But in the subsequent team competition, after Xingxin's treatment was taken away by Samsara, he was quickly defeated again.

Healer An Wenyi was Xingxin's shortcoming, and everyone from the professional media to ordinary players had already reached a consensus on this point.Taking advantage of the winter break, Xingxin tailored a full-body silver outfit for An Wenyi, but it still couldn't make up for his lack of personal skills.

At the press conference after the match, Ye Xiu reiterated that Xingxin will continue to trust An Wenyi and will never re-select priest players.Facing the reporter's question, "What's so special about him that makes Xingxin look up to him so much?" Ye Xiu replied, "He's a member of Xingxin's team, and that's what makes him special."

This answer made the Samsara team members who watched the live broadcast shake their heads, expressing "too emotional".

Zhou Zekai thought that to a large extent, Ye Xiu was indeed a very emotional person.

Excellent Era had been rotten from the bottom up at least in the seventh season, but Ye Xiu didn't seek a transfer, but wasted his precious career, trying to plant the seeds of reconstruction.

Joining Heavenly Sword is undoubtedly a shortcut to return to the professional circle, but Ye Xiu thought of the love of the proprietress of Xingxin Internet Cafe, and spent day and night collecting materials and bringing in newcomers, choosing a much more difficult path.

This kind of sentimentality can sometimes be rewarded, such as the concerted Xingxin led by him; sometimes it is not, such as Excellent Era who cruelly abandoned him.

Now Ye Xiu protects Tang Rou, who is blamed by the entire Glory circle for breaking his promise, trusts An Wenyi, who is generally considered unprofessional, and tolerates Baozi, who has no brains, Qiao Yifan, who was abandoned by Tiny Herb, and retired. Blue Rain's former captain Wei Chen...

He always seems to be careless, as if he doesn't care about anything, but he will give his heart to the person he believes, regardless of the consequences.

So Zhou Zekai couldn't help but wonder, in Ye Xiu's mind, has he been classified as one of his own?

Zhou Zekai was unable to ask this question.He typed and deleted in the QQ dialog box, and finally only sent out a simple sentence: "Looking forward to the next duel."

Ye Xiu's reply was more concise: "See you in the finals."

This agreement was fulfilled five months later.

In the semi-finals of the playoffs, Xingxin, who was forced to the edge of a cliff, relied on Ye Xiu's retaliation after a lapse of six years to beat Tyranny 3:2 and meet Samsara in the finals.

Due to excessive energy consumption, Xingxin failed to withstand the strong attack of Samsara who had rested for four days in the first round, and lost the only home game.

Samsara only needs to win one more game to achieve three consecutive championships and establish his own dynasty.The whole team was full of fighting spirit. In the second match, they imitated the formation of the eighth season final against Blue Rain. With the momentum of breaking the boat, Zhou Zekai was ranked first in the group arena. Ye Xiu, who has won 43 games in a row in heads-up.

Zhou Zekai walked out from the Samsara team, seeing Ye Xiu's slightly surprised expression, he felt a little proud.

Ye Xiu said, "Xiao Zhou, don't be too careless."

Zhou Zekai shook his head: "No."

No one knows your strength better than me.

Zhou Zekai still lost this one-on-one match.Even though he succeeded in the sniping at the beginning, and then played the brilliant spear technique that shocked the audience, Lord Grim still turned the situation around with a set of the most simple and rude rogue skills, and won the victory in the close-up attack.

When Cloud Piercer's vision was completely dimmed, Zhou Zekai saw Ye Xiu's message on the channel: "Come on, you almost beat me." There was a smiling expression behind it.

He clenched his fists.

Although I am not reconciled, it is already a great improvement from the initial difference to the current one.

So we must work harder, cross that little distance, and stand by Ye Xiu's side.

In the following years, the classic scene of the third game of the tenth season finals was constantly praised.Maps with NPC interference, the duel between Ye Xiu and One Autumn Leaf, Zhou Zekai's 764v[-], Tang Rou's self-salvation, the tragic one-on-one exchange in the team competition, the priest's counterattack, [-]'s APM...

In Zhou Zekai's memory, this game was condensed into [-] seconds.

In Ye Xiu's wave of extremely fast and extremely intensive attacks, even with Zhou Zekai's current unsolvable technical level, he couldn't make any adjustments, and could only accept the bitter ending of failure.

After entering the professional circle for six full years, the only opponent who could suppress him until he was out of breath and powerless to fight back was still that person from the beginning to the end.

Therefore, facing a dazzling array of microphones after the game, Zhou Zekai expressed his feelings very smoothly without pause: "He is a great player."

Ye Xiu didn't attend Xingxin's press conference that everyone was looking forward to. Su Mucheng explained, "He's too tired and needs to rest."

Zhou Zekai, who was watching the live broadcast in the lounge, heard this, said "I'll go and see" to his teammates, and walked out.

Xingxin's lounge was empty, Zhou Zekai stood at the door and thought for a while, then walked to the restroom for players backstage.

He saw Ye Xiu from a distance.Ye Xiu was lazily leaning against the wall outside the bathroom, with a cigarette in his mouth.The face shrouded in smoke looks so blurry, it seems that it will disappear from this world in a second.

Zhou Zekai stopped, and waited until Ye Xiu finished smoking the cigarette, raised his hand and threw the cigarette butt into the trash can beside him, before walking forward.

Although he didn't make a sound, Ye Xiu quickly noticed his presence. He was a little surprised: "Why did you come here?"

Zhou Zekai looked at Ye Xiu, and the many thoughts that had been swirling in his mind since the end of the game finally merged into one sentence: "I will continue to work hard."

Will become stronger and become an opponent good enough to match you.

So, don't show such a lonely look.

Ye Xiu smiled.

He walked towards Zhou Zekai and stopped a step away from him.

Zhou Zekai felt that the way Ye Xiu looked at him seemed to engrave him on his retina.

Then Zhou Zekai's breathing stopped for a moment.

He has given many hugs, at various events, to various female fans.But that was nothing more than an empty hug from a certain distance.

For Zhou Zekai, this kind of strong and tight hug was the first time in his life.

Ye Xiu... is not as he always thought, much shorter than him.Such an illusion was created, probably because Ye Xiu never stood upright, so he looked shorter than he actually was.Ye Xiu's chin rested on his right shoulder, so he should be two to three centimeters shorter than him...

Zhou Zekai didn't know why, at this moment, all he thought about was such insignificant things.

Ye Xiu's body temperature came through the thin team uniform T-shirt, so hot.That moment seems to be as long as a lifetime, and it seems to be as short as a second.

Then Ye Xiu let go of his hand.He stepped over Zhou Zekai who was completely frozen, and stopped.

Behind Zhou Zekai, Ye Xiu said softly, "Xiao Zhou. Goodbye."

Zhou Zekai stood blankly for a while before he realized it and turned around abruptly.

In his field of vision, Ye Xiu's back was straighter than ever before, his steps were firm and hesitant.

Therefore, Ye Xiu's trembling hands when he hugged him, and the trembling voice when he said goodbye, all of these must be just illusions.
