For Love of the Game

Shen Huai and Song Xueyang returned to the room, and the heavy rain outside the house washed away the sweltering heat of the past few days.

Song Xueyang closed the curtains, "It's cold, don't turn on the air conditioner, lest you catch a cold after taking a shower."

"Well," Shen Huai couldn't help asking, seeing Song Xueyang's methodical movements, "Are you...disappointed?"

Song Xueyang smiled and said, "Winning or losing is a common matter in military affairs, not to mention that this is the finals, winning or losing is normal."

He took Shen Huai's hand and sat down on the sofa, "Xiaolang is a strong team that can win two championships in a row. The Guan team has strong command ability and the players are not weak. Fengyue still has many shortcomings. Losing It’s a pity the game, but it’s good to learn from it.”

Shen Huai didn't speak.

He also understands that if there is a win in the game, there will be a loss. It's just that Fengyue's journey has been so smooth that he almost forgot that the championship is something that many players have never been able to get in their entire career.

Seeing that he was silent, Song Xueyang took him into his arms and patted him on the shoulder lightly.

"I know that you are disappointed that you didn't win the championship. It is your dream to become a champion and prove yourself, but isn't the dream precious because it can't be realized casually? You have strength and ability, and there are still many competitions in the future , I guarantee we will win the championship."

Shen Huai was lying in Song Xueyang's arms, and when he heard his deep and gentle voice coming from above his head, his empty heart seemed to be filled with a gust of warm wind.He responded softly, "I know."

"Then are you disappointed?" Song Xueyang asked softly.

Shen Huai keenly noticed that Song Xueyang's heart beat a few beats faster, and his body was a little tense. He raised his head, and Song Xueyang smiled, "What's wrong?"

That smile couldn't be more natural.

Shen Huai shook his head, "It's not disappointment, it's just a pity. Are you satisfied with everyone's performance?"

Song Xueyang said without hesitation, "You all performed very well, and the level of your on-the-spot performance even surpassed that during the assault practice. I am already very satisfied."

Shen Huai stared at him closely, "You are satisfied with us, but what about yourself?"

Song Xueyang's smile did not change, but he stopped talking, just patted his head and stood up.

Sure enough, he was blaming himself.

When Shen Huai heard him carefully ask himself if he was disappointed, he felt something was wrong.

He followed behind Song Xueyang and said, "Didn't you tell me that victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs, and there are still many competitions in the future, so you will definitely win the championship?"

"But I owe you a championship. I promised you what I promised, and I will take the championship trophy to apologize to you and prove to you that there is nothing wrong with joining Fengyue, but I broke my promise."

Song Xueyang twitched the corner of her mouth, "Where do you think we lost tonight?"

Shen Huai pursed his lips, but did not answer.

Of course he knew the answer, but he didn't want to say it.

"Team battle." Song Xueyang said so.

He leaned against the window, his deep eyes almost blending into the night, "Why don't you play 2V2, that is to say, 2V2 is the best breakthrough for us to defeat Xiaowolf, two 2V2 games plus a team battle to win Xiaowolf , I originally planned to do so."

Shen Huai's eyes darkened. Xiaolang and Fengyue are the only ones who can really be called T1 level masters, Song Xueyang, Guan He and Tang Wenlang, but Song Xueyang's sniper is not suitable for 1V1, he does not play, Zhou Ning meets Tang Wenlang Wen Lang's chances of winning are very small, so it is actually very difficult to win 1V1.

2V2 and team battles are their main battlegrounds, but they never expected that even with Song Xueyang, the master of team battles, Fengyue still didn't win a single round of team battles.

"The team battle is a battlefield of six people, how can you be the only one to blame?"

Song Xueyang quickly replied, "Because you all have played very well. If there is anything wrong with the coordination of team battles, it is because I didn't notice it during training."

He took Shen Huai's hand and looked at each finger carefully, "The most uncomfortable thing for me is that I swore to pull you to join Fengyue, but I failed to fulfill the promise I made to you at that time. I want to see you To win the championship, climb to the top of professional e-sports, I want to be the one who pushes you along the way, but I am also the one who drags you down at critical moments."

Shen Huai's breathing stagnated, and he suddenly remembered what Song Xueyang said when the two of them accepted to participate in the show together.

- My dream is to realize his dream.

Before meeting Song Xueyang, Shen Huai never knew that one person could change his life goals for another, and he couldn't believe that such sincere feelings would fall on him.But after meeting Song Xueyang, he understood the beauty of fighting side by side and advancing together, as well as his sincere desire to be good to someone.

He held Song Xueyang's hand with his backhand, and said firmly, "The championship is not yours alone, so it is not your fault alone if you lose. You are the one who helped me along the way. Without you, Cang Yu would not be able to win today. It's about winning."

Song Xueyang was slightly taken aback, then smiled and kissed him on the forehead, "I'm just analyzing the cause of tonight's failure, why are you so serious? But thank you anyway."

Shen Huai knew that he was just perfunctory himself, and was about to say something more when Song Xueyang's cell phone rang.

While picking it up, he walked around the room, "Brother Kun...well, no, what's the matter?"

Shen Huai only heard the first few sentences, but he also knew what Brother Kun was talking about.

Just now, Brother Kun posted a message in the team group, asking them not to participate in the topic discussion on Weibo, and not to post Weibo or incite fans.

Shen Huai opened Weibo out of curiosity, and the first hot search was unsurprisingly #国民创战结局，骑狼欧冠三次Champion#, but when you scroll down, it changes.

[#羽神田月# 6V6 lost two games in a row, is this still the maple moon that I remember in the team battle?However, the Guan team did not play and won two games in 2V2. If it weren't for the 2V2 played first in the game tonight, I am afraid that Xiaowolf would have been beaten 3:0. The quality of this finals is really not ordinary. There is no point to watch, I think Fengyue has recruited a great master and will not make progress. 】

【#国际创气结果，骑狼欧冠三个欧冠#骑狼 Awesome!After being led by 2:0, they tied the score and turned the loss into victory. After the Guan team came on the field, they were crushed by strength!On Fengyue's side, Yushen is the only one who is struggling. If you want me to say that Yushen was in the wrong team at the beginning, if Yushen went to Xiaolang, China will definitely have the hope of winning the world championship this year! 】

【#WG三军赛加油# I have already said that Fengyue's level is not good at all, it is not up to the standard of the finals, but who makes people lick their dogs too much!How about now?The two team battles were like shit, if our Yan team hadn't been injured trying to save Yushen, what would happen to Fengyue in the finals? ! 】

【#WG三军赛加油# I feel sorry for the Yan team, Fengyue's level really doesn't deserve to win against WG.This level will still occupy a place in the World Championships. I think the hope of winning the World Championships this year will still be pinned on Xiaolang. 】

【#风神田月# 6V6 The whole audience is sleepwalking, I don't know what Fengyue is thinking.The second battle of the heads of state was a group of assassins from Yushen. The new era of white spells was only given to Yushen every time. I laughed so hard. Is your usual training content how to lie down and say 666? 】

[#羽神田月##WG三军赛加油# Can’t beat the fast attack style of the three swordsmen of the wolf, can it beat our WG serial bonus style?If Team Yan hadn't been injured, Fengyue wouldn't even be the runner-up, at most she would be the third runner-up.Oh, I heard that Fengyue was able to win the God of War in the group stage because of the hostage rescue mode Feather God 1V6 strong comeback, so if the third place competition did not randomly rescue the hostages, they would not be able to beat the God of War.In the end, I was still fourth. There is no difference from last year, but this year's luck is better than last year. 】

Shen Huai frowned after reading a few of them. He also saw such comments when he was still in the entertainment industry. Every year at the end of the national finals, the loser never got scolded. I can understand how much damage these abuses will cause to the players who lose the game and are deeply doubting themselves.

Song Xueyang hung up the phone, took a quick look at Shen Huai's phone, and returned it to him as if nothing had happened, "There are so many keyboard warriors, and there are so many people who can't even distinguish their skills, so don't worry about it. "

Shen Huai nodded, wanting to continue the topic just now and enlighten Song Xueyang, when he took out his notebook and sat down at the table.

"what are you going to do?"

"Brother Kun asked me to write an analysis report for the finals and hand it over to the club. You should go take a shower first."

Song Xueyang didn't seem to be affected in any way, and even the few lost words before seemed to be just mentioned casually. He knew that Song Xueyang was a strong person who could cheer up quickly, but Shen Huai was still afraid that he would force himself too much.

He looked down at his phone, caught sight of the "Come on" message from his father, and suddenly had an idea.

"Then I'll take a shower first." He deliberately put the phone beside Song Xueyang's table and entered the bathroom.

Song Xueyang wrote it with fascination. In his opinion, this analysis book is not only an errand assigned by the club, but also a review of himself.

While writing, Shen Huai's cell phone rang, and Song Xueyang knocked on the bathroom door with the cell phone, "Shen Huai, you're calling."

Shen Huai's voice was mixed with the sound of water, and he couldn't hear it clearly, "Please help me pick it up first."

"it is good."

Song Xueyang looked down, and the name on the caller ID was "Shen Nuo".

He did a little mental preparation before answering the phone, "Hello, Uncle."

There was silence for a moment, "Where's Shen Huai?"

"He's taking a shower. Let me answer the phone for him. How about I ask him to call you back when he comes out?"

"No need, I'll be filming later. Are you his captain?"

"Yes, uncle."

"Then let me ask you, how is Shen Huai's mood?"

Song Xueyang heard that he was worried about Shen Huai's situation, and probably knew the result of the game.

He left the bedroom and walked to the living room, "I was a little disappointed when I came back, but I'm much better now. Shen Huai played very well tonight, and won last year's champion singled in the ring."

"Then why did you still lose?"

Song Xueyang paused for a moment, then smiled, "Uncle is a world-renowned actor, but has every movie he has ever made won an award? Why do actors as good as Uncle sometimes fail to win awards?"

Shen Nuo didn't expect that a mere child would dare to challenge him like this. He laughed, but there was no trace of irritation in that laugh, but rather admiration, which made the assistant Jin beside him couldn't help but look over.

"I think you are a sensible person, and you don't need someone to enlighten you. It's my silly son who is just worrying about it."

Song Xueyang also guessed it. When Shen Huai asked him to answer the phone for him, he realized that the call might have been intended for him.

He walked a little further, looking at the night rain outside the window, with a serious face, "Uncle, have you ever lost?"

Shen Nuo dismissed the staff in the room, "I was nominated for the best actor when I starred in a movie for the first time, and on the final judging day I lost to someone whose acting skills and script were not as good as mine, at least I think so Yes. I asked the judges why they didn’t choose me, and they said, that person is more experienced than me, and he has already won Best Actor in other regions this year with this film.”

"My agent was very unconvinced when he found out about it, because I only made this movie that year, and the production and reviews were no worse than that movie. I told him, forget it, wait for next year. The next year I carefully selected a crew with the best script, the most famous director, the best actors, and high investment. Every shot was as perfect as possible. The actors nominated this year also have more seniority and fame than me. Big one, but I am the one who wins the prize in the end. Because I am better than them, so strong that everyone can see."

Song Xueyang's heart was deeply shocked, Shen Nuo's words told him two truths.

First, if you want to win, you must not only cultivate your personal skills, but also improve the overall level of the team.Second, in the face of absolute strength, other influencing factors will become negligible.

They will lose, not because of the wrong rhythm, nor because of bad luck, there is only one reason - they are not strong enough.

Therefore, what he has to do now is to improve the level of each team member, so that everyone is strong enough to be seen by people all over the world!

Song Xueyang suddenly realized, "I understand Uncle, thank you. In this year's World Championship, you will definitely see Fengyue shine!"

He hung up the phone and pushed open the bathroom door.

Shen Huai was listening to the movement outside with his ears upright, and was taken aback by him, his eyes widened, and he didn't even think to cover them.

Song Xueyang strode in and said earnestly, "Thank you, Shen Huai. I'll call everyone to a meeting tomorrow, and we'll discuss a new training plan. Let them see exactly how Fengyue is at the World Championship!"

Seeing the haze sweeping away from his eyes, Shen Huai finally showed a smile, "Okay, we will become world champions!"

"world champion."

Song Xueyang held his head and kissed him sincerely.
