heartstrings first note

Unspoken emotions.

She pursed her lips tightly and stared blankly at the computer screen that had started to play advertisements for a while.After a few minutes, she picked up the mobile phone that had been kept at hand, turned on the screen, opened QQ, took a deep breath, and accepted the friend request that had been disturbing her for a week.

After entering the chat screen, she quickly entered the word "come on" on the keyboard, and then sent the message immediately before her courage was exhausted.

On the other end, Fang Rui walked with the others to the door of the lounge but didn't go in. Instead, he turned along the corridor and went to the bathroom familiarly.He pushed open the door and came to the sink, turned on the faucet, scooped up biting cold water and washed his face vigorously.After feeling clearer, he turned off the tap, raised his head, and met his own eyes in the mirror.

It's been so long, what are you still struggling with?

He stared at himself in the mirror and asked, and couldn't help but beat the mirror hard with his wet hands.

He wasn't sure, if this match wasn't against Wind Howl, or if it wasn't held in N City, would he still be so restless.

When he sent out that friend request a week ago, he thought that even if she didn't want to talk to him anymore, he could accept the consequences calmly.And this week, he really didn't have any violent mood swings because of her non-response.Although he was a little disappointed, he still worked and rested as usual, eating and sleeping so well that even he himself was a little embarrassed.

However, as soon as he set foot on the land of N City, especially after entering this competition venue, the memory he wanted to forget the most when he first came to Wind Howl was inexplicably hooked up, churning in his mind, and he couldn't suppress it.

Even when he was playing on the stage, there was a voice in his head that kept asking: If he hadn't followed Lao Lin to watch the game as a reserve player that day, if he had brought his mobile phone with him that day, if he had gone earlier Her best friend inquired about her... Will their ending be different?

It's a pity... there is no if.

Fang Rui gritted his teeth, pulled up his cuffs vigorously, and wiped away the water stains on his face indiscriminately, as if he wanted to wipe off all the regret and nostalgia for her in his heart.He told himself that the most important thing to consider right now is the competition, and...he must not let her be an excuse for losing the competition!

He took another two deep breaths in front of the mirror. After calming down, he walked out of the bathroom with a smile. Unexpectedly, he almost bumped into someone when he went out.

The visitor stopped, and when he saw him, he hurriedly said, "Hey, isn't this Mr. Fang Rui? Why, hiding in the toilet and crying? Do you want me to comfort you?" Zhao Yuzhe glanced at Fang Rui's forehead. With dry hair, a hint of sarcasm curled up at the corner of his mouth.

Fang Rui glanced at him, sighed exaggeratedly, walked around him without saying a word, and then quietly said: "The children nowadays can't even understand tactics..."

Zhao Yuzhe stared at him ignoring his leaving back, and said unconvinced: "If you lose, you lose! Put on less!"

But Fang Rui didn't want to waste another word on him, so he turned straight into Xingxin's lounge.

"What's wrong outside, why is it so noisy?" Su Mucheng, who was standing by the door, asked with a slight frown as soon as Fang Rui entered.

"The kid lost his temper." He shrugged, then looked at Su Mucheng with bright eyes and said, "Sister Mu, let's discuss how to abuse those little kids in the team competition! I can't control it anymore My golden right hand!"

While speaking, he suddenly felt the phone vibrate in his pocket.

"Oh, since Fang Rui is so motivated, I'll leave it to you to lure the enemy into the depths!" Su Mucheng took over the conversation and began to arrange the next tactical arrangement for everyone.

It shouldn't be something important... Fang Rui thought about it, and soon forgot about the phone.

After the halftime break, the team competition continued for another 10 minutes. In the end, Xingxin won the match by 1 head point.

Although the victory was very difficult to come by, a win is a win. No matter if he won by 1 head point or 12 head points, once Fang Rui activated the taunt skill, he would spare no effort.

When he shook hands with Zhao Yuzhe after the game, he had an amiable smile on his face, and he taught earnestly: "Kids, you have to work hard, you have to study tactics more, tactics are very important."

"Damn...do you dare to challenge me one-on-one!" Zhao Yuzhe glared at him.

Fang Rui blinked when he heard the words: "Have you forgotten that I abused you in the individual competition last year?" His face was full of concern, and he almost reached out to touch Zhao Yuzhe's forehead.

Zhao Yuzhe is still a teenager at heart, and being provoked like this, his hair was about to stand on end in anger: "That was last year! Now I don't necessarily lose to you!"

Fang Rui just smiled: "No, I have to spend my time looking for high-level opponents to improve my strength." After he finished speaking, he didn't want to fight too much. After shaking hands with the opponents behind him, he walked briskly from the stage. ran down the stairs.

This scene was recorded in the webcast, and the commentator Pan Lin saw Fang Rui like this and commented with a smile: "Haha, Fang Rui played well in the second half, and he seems to be in a good mood now."

Li Yibo, who was born in Tyranny, was very disdainful of Fang Rui's behavior of acting like a good boy when he got cheap: "Xingxin's victory may have been due to a lot of luck. Fang Rui's current performance is really... not very prudent..." This has already It is a euphemism and a euphemism.

Liu Xinyin who was sitting in front of the computer was really relieved when she saw this.Great, I finally won... However, when she remembered that she hadn't received a response to the message she sent, her heart couldn't help but tugged again.

Did he see the message she sent?Will he reply?Would he be mad at her for taking so long to accept the application?

Liu Xinyin huddled on the chair with her legs in her arms, and watched the post-match interview in anxiety. When this week's competition was completely over, she finally waited for his reply—"I won."

Only two words?Liu Xinyin froze for a moment, completely unable to guess what he was thinking.She thought for a while, and to be on the safe side, she only replied with two words: "Congratulations."

Almost at the same time, she received a reply: "Thank you."

Another two words... Isn't he even willing to say one more word to her?

Just when she was beginning to feel hopeless, Fang Rui quickly sent another sentence: "Can the next sentence break the curse of two words?"

Seeing what he said, Liu Xinyin laughed "Puchi" and said, "Yes."

In the minibus returning to the hotel from the N City Gymnasium, Chen Guo quietly turned her head and glanced at Fang Rui who was usually sitting in the last row, and goose bumps appeared all over her body.She couldn't help touching Su Mucheng who was sitting next to her, and said in a low voice, "I don't know who Fang Rui is mocking again, he's laughing so obscenely now!"

Su Mucheng also turned her head to take a look, then whispered in Chen Guo's ear with a clear smile, "Maybe she was ridiculed by someone."

"Huh?" Chen Guo had a look of disbelief, "How can you laugh so happily after being ridiculed by others? He's not Baozi..."

"That depends on who the other party is." Su Mucheng blinked at her. After Chen Guo was stunned for a while, she suddenly stood up excitedly: "You mean——ouch!" The consequence of this excitement was that she His head hit the luggage rack above the seat firmly.

Chapter 5

"Good night, everyone!" As soon as the minibus stopped in front of the hotel, Fang Rui rushed from the last row to the front in an instant like a bullet being fired. As soon as the door opened, he jumped out of the bus and ran into the hotel. lobby.

"Oh my god, what's going on? I'm so anxious that I'm burning my butt..." Chen Guo was taken aback by this guy who swept past her like a wind, patted her chest and stared at him before disappearing into the hotel in a blink of an eye. inside.

"People have three urgencies." Baozi replied very naturally when he passed by her, and he was the second to get out of the car.

Chen Guo looked at the back of Baozi leisurely getting out of the car, and murmured, "That's really urgent..." She actually felt that Baozi's words made sense, and couldn't help but worry about Fang Rui—that guy didn't leave Did you pee your pants halfway?

Of course, Chen Guo's worries were unnecessary.

Fang Rui ran across the lobby, jumped into the elevator, and went up to the floor where his room was. After swiping his card to open the door, the target he went straight to was not the toilet, but the laptop he put on the table in the room.

After contacting Liu Xinyin just now, he only talked with her about innocuous topics such as current life, work, and the weather.

But when he was about to arrive at the hotel, he pretended to casually mention that he could take her to play Glory in the future, and asked when she usually went online.Unexpectedly, she replied after a long pause: "I'll be online tonight, is Fang Rui free?"

Fang Rui, who had no hope at first, suddenly felt his heart throbbing - of course he is free!If you don't have time, you will find time!

Although his heart was churning like boiling water, the text he replied to her was calm and indifferent: "Yes, I will add you as a friend when I get online."

After sending out this message, he immediately raised his head and looked out of the car window. Seeing that the minibus was blocked in front of the traffic lights half a street away from the hotel, he was so anxious that he even wanted to jump out of the window and run back.

Finally, the car finally arrived at the hotel.He took a deep breath, jumped out of the car and ran back to the room, turned on the computer as fast as he could and logged in to Glory.

But Fang Rui was in a hurry, but he still remembered to log in with Master Zhang Qigong's account from his bag, instead of letting Boundless Sea go online directly to be watched by fans or beaten by enemies.

After logging into the game, he immediately searched for
