Twisted melon bursts sweet [e-sports]

Although this maze looks huge, it's actually not that difficult... After all, it has to be considered whether the player can make a rational judgment after being severely frightened.

After saying goodbye to the two kind... ghosts who could only release water because they stood still, Jin Chao and Xi Nian finally came out of the haunted house maze after nearly an hour.

The lights in the place waiting for the elevator had returned to normal (yang) normal (jian) brightness, and the two leaned against the wall, not talking for a while.

Xi Nian took out his mobile phone, and there were several missed calls and text messages from You Shuai asking where they were. He was about to reply when a voice suddenly sounded beside him:

"Do you think... I'm useless?"

Xi Nian turned around in surprise——

The person who was speaking was lowering his head at the moment, with his extremely short hair standing upright, just like his master. Most of his face was covered by shadows, making it difficult to see his expression clearly, except for his tight jaw. The silhouette reveals his restless mood.

"...Why do you say that?" Xi Nian asked tentatively, having rarely seen Jin Chao like this.

Jin Chao let out a deep breath, then raised his head, with a stiff smile on the corner of his mouth: "You should have seen it, I... I'm actually afraid of ghosts."

"?" Xi Nian became more and more confused, "What's wrong with being afraid of ghosts?"

"Obviously I know there are no ghosts in this world, but I still can't help being afraid." Jin Chao's mood became even more depressed, as if he felt that being afraid of ghosts was a heinous thing, "I looked ridiculous in the haunted house just now. Timid and cowardly, being chased by ghosts..."

Xi Nian: "..."

I don't know why, but this kind of Jin Chao reminded him of a big brown bear who was robbed of honey and wronged that he saw in the animal world...

Xi Nian finally understood what he was trying to screw up——

What Jin Chao shows to others is always his strongest side, not only other people are used to this, even himself is no exception, so when his weakness is exposed, he will fall into endless self-doubt.

Xi Nian sighed, and walked up to him. Although hesitant, he finally reached out and patted his prickly hair: "What's so funny about this? Isn't that what haunted houses exist for? If everyone can go in, they can be calm Come out, is that still called a haunted house?"

"But...but I shouldn't be afraid," Jin Chao could vaguely understand what he meant, but he still couldn't get it right, "especially..."

"Especially me too, right? You think you haven't protected me well?" Xi Nian helped him pick up the conversation.

Surprised and guilty eyes fell on him.

Knowing that he had grasped the point, Xi Nian's face became serious: "Listen, Jin Chao——"

"I'm an adult man just like you, and I don't need your protection."

"As long as you can stand by my side at critical moments, that's enough."

His tone was very calm, but every sentence and every word he uttered was like a heavy hammer hitting Jin Chao's heart, making the thick wall covering his heart that reads as principles of doing things and writes with his own opinions finally come to an end. A gap opened.

Xi Nian didn't finish his sentence: "And I don't think you are cowardly at all. On the contrary, I think you are very brave."

"Obviously so afraid of ghosts, but he chose to protect me in his arms when faced with two ghosts." As soon as he thought of that scene, Xi Nian's heart burned slightly, "Can you overcome yourself in such a situation?" fear, I really admire you, and also... thank you very much."

Thank you for not leaving me behind when you were in crisis, and for making me feel valued for the first time.

"...Don't you think that only cowards are afraid of ghosts?" Before he knew it, Jin Chao finally raised his head.

"What's the big deal about being afraid of ghosts?" Xi Nian pouted his lips indifferently, "Then I'm still afraid of heights, do you think I'm a coward?"

Jin Chao immediately shook his head like a rattle.

"That's fine. Fear of ghosts and fear of heights are essentially the same thing, and if the place where today's situation happened is changed to a high altitude, I really can't protect you in my arms."

"Facing your own fears and weaknesses, there's nothing shameful about it... You're still the handsome, husky, chic winner in my heart, don't worry."

A relieved smile finally appeared on Jin Chao's face.

The team members did not gather until twelve o'clock, and it was past one o'clock in the middle of the night when they returned to the team base.

Although the usual training time will not be earlier than this point, but today everyone got up at [-] o'clock in the morning, after another day of shooting, and finally had a good night of fun...

Most of them fell asleep in the car, and when they got off the car, they all groped into the base with their eyes closed, like wandering spirits.

The team members were very tired, and after saying hello to the managers and coaches, they went upstairs and returned to their rooms.

Xi Nian was no exception, but just as he was about to take a good night's sleep after taking a shower and drying his hair, there was a knock on the door:

"knock knock"

So late, who will come to him?

Xi Nian put the towel for drying his hair casually on the back of a chair beside him, walked barefoot to the door and opened it.

Standing outside the door is——

Obviously, Jin Chao had already taken a shower and changed into comfortable pajamas, hugging the pillow with a serious face.

A question mark slowly appeared above Xi Nian's head.

As if he understood Xi Nian's expression, Jin Chao touched the black letters raised on the back of his neck with some embarrassment, and his voice was more than double his usual volume: "Cough, you just said that you should face up to own weaknesses and fears."

"……so what?"

Jin Chao cleared his throat: "As soon as I lay down, I remembered what I just saw in the haunted house, and I was too scared to sleep, so... can I sleep with you?"

Xi Nian: "..."

But your expression doesn't say that.

Although Jin Chao pressed the corners of his lips tightly and did not show a smile, Xi Nian could still see the obvious secret joy in his eyes...

"Student Jin Xiaochao, you're promising," Xi Nian said with a half-smile, "You've actually plotted against me."

Hearing his "accusation", Jin Chao quickly waved his hands to retort: ​​"I didn't, I was really scared..."

Having said that, he paused for a moment, raised his eyes to look at Xi Nian, and then lowered his head as if lost, even the hair that stood up all the way seemed to have lost strength and drooped down: "If you don't want to, forget it." Well, let me turn on the light and open my eyes till dawn..."

The sad tone in the words is kind of like that, Xi Nian thought.

Not receiving the response he deserved, the "lost" Jin Chao couldn't help but quietly glanced at the person in front of him...but Xi Nian didn't even look at him!

The grievance that was originally [-]% true and [-]% false instantly became [-]% true, and he gave up on himself: "If you don't sleep for dozens of hours in a row, maybe I will die suddenly during training tomorrow afternoon..."

Before he could finish speaking, Xi Nian interrupted sharply:

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Xi Nian has always been good at cold violence, and Jin Chao rarely saw him expressing emotions like this, he was immediately frightened, and it took him a long time to react: "If you don't sleep with me, you're still pissing me off..."

In fact, what Jin Chao said about sleeping was only in the literal sense, but Xi Nian subconsciously understood it as another level...with an indescribable meaning.

Jin Chao's face, which was faintly blue with anger because of his previous indiscretion, turned a nice pink in an instant.

However, Jin Chao, who was immersed in the grievance of "Xi Nian actually murdered me, he must not like me, otherwise how could he murder me", did not notice this beautiful scenery, and was still chattering: "Sure enough, you just lied to me, You don’t even let me sleep, you clearly despise me for being cowardly! Oh, I remembered, I thought I was old before, you really like that cowardly and stupid little jungler from Team TR, right?! Love the new and hate the old! This is blatant love of the new and dislike of the old..."

Seeing that his words became more and more outrageous, from Xi Nian and TR jungler Nok's "meeting" for supper when they went to a game in a neighboring city before, all the way to turn over the old scores, to the cold words against him when the FL team was first formed... This posture can't wait Even the trivial things in the youth training camp three years ago were dug out and crusaded!

Xi Nian pinched the bridge of his nose with a headache: "Stop, stop, talk more and more vigorously, what exactly do you want?"

The wall clock in the corridor showed that it was almost two o'clock in the morning.

Jin Chaoru's constant complaints from the Yellow River class stopped abruptly, and he expressed his "reasonable" appeal in a concise and concise manner: "I want to sleep with you."

Xi Nian: "..."

10 minute later.

The original matcha green pillow on the bed was moved to the side, and a pure black pillow next to it occupied half of its original territory forcefully, making it look a bit crowded.

Although the beds arranged by the team for the players are larger than the single beds, they are still much smaller than the double beds... After all, neither the manager nor the original designer probably thought that sleeping on the same bed would happen in the team. A matter of two people.

This is the first time Jin Chao entered Xi Nian's room, and as soon as he put down the pillow, his eyes couldn't help but wander around——

Although the room structure of the team members is the same, but after living for a long time, the room will inevitably take on the style of the owner.

The curtains in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows have been changed from the original beige to matcha green like the bed sheets and quilt covers. There is a comfortable bamboo lazy recliner in the corner. There are many books in the bookcase, including world classics and some popular novels. .

All the things in the room are neatly arranged, making people feel clean and tidy at first glance, just like Xi Nian.

"What are you looking at?"

Xi Nian was holding the spare quilt from the top of the closet, and was about to spread it on the bed when he saw that someone had no sense of being a guest at all, and was still looking left and right dishonestly.

"It's nothing, nothing." Hearing Xi Nian's question, Jin Chao quickly looked away, put on a flattering smile, and stepped forward to take the quilt, "I'll make the bed, I'll make the bed."

Just when he was about to make the quilt on Ziwang's bed, Xi Nian stopped him: "Hey, where are you going to make it?"

"On the bed." Jin Chao answered quite confidently.

There is no second bed in this room, it is impossible for Xi Nian to let himself sleep on the floor...

The muttering in my heart has not yet settled down, but a cold and unkind voice has already sounded:

"It's a good idea, you sleep on the floor."

You sleep on the floor.

sleep on the floor.

on the ground.

on.

Jin Chao: "..."
