For Love of the Game

Fan Jingming killed Pablo and Louis one after another with one enemy and two. No one expected that this unknown player, who played in Fengyue's team battle, could emit such a dazzling light in the 2V2 .

The South Korean commentator praised, "The FM team's two-person combination that focuses on dispersing the enemy's output is indeed a bit powerful. Ming did not leave much impression on me in the team battle. The team battle duel to control the nurse is his relatively eye-catching operation. No, I didn't expect him to cooperate so tacitly with Eleven in 2V2. This player has been ignored by us before, but he has a good grasp of the entry point of the battle!"

他的搭档警惕起来，“还有Eleven。他给我的印象更多是1V1中卡视野盲区操作的技巧，以及FM团战中法系爆发输出的过人手速。但这场2V2他所展现出的战术思维远超于打法技巧。论操作,帕布洛和路易斯两位元老选手可能都在他们之上，可这种无赖式的2V2打法却让人完全没辙，我认为Ming和Eleven的这种分散式打法比普通2V2打法更依赖默契,也一定会对现今实力强劲的双人组合造成不小的冲击！”

Not only South Korean commentators, but also commentators from other countries have given high praise to Fan Jingming and Shi Yi's style of play. These two seem to be playing 1V1 throughout the whole process, but they have mastered the timing of switching opponents and even the control skills very well. , It cannot be done without a super high tacit understanding.

In the soundproof room, Fan Jingming and Shi stood up with a high-five, and the sharp height difference made audiences all over the world take another look.

[Wow, this name is so tall, Asians are rare, right?He can play basketball now!I hadn't noticed him at all before. 】

【Eleven is like a little chick by his side!This is too cute!It never occurred to me that the two of them are actually FM's 2V2 partners! 】

[Eleven is okay, I remembered him when I fought Myko before.But without this competition, I have no impression of Ming at all!His 2V2 is much better than team fights!The person is so handsome, the way of breaking up the opponent is really cool! 】

When the two returned to the waiting room, Song Xueyang raised his hands to give them a high-five, then hugged the two of them with his backhand, and said in a low voice, "You fought beautifully. You finally became famous in this battle. Congratulations."

A soft sentence, but it hit the deepest place hidden in the hearts of the two of them.

Fan Jingming put his arms around Song Xueyang's shoulders heavily, "Thank you, captain, my six-year professional career, this one is worth it."

Shi Yi's heart was agitated by Song Xueyang's words, and when he heard Fan Jingming say that, his nose felt sour, his eyes felt hot, and the choked up voice made him shut up, "Captain..."

Song Xueyang patted him on the shoulder with a smile, "Hold on, you still have a long way to go."

Shi nodded again and again without saying a word.

Shen Huai looked at Song Xueyang's back, Shi Yi and Fan Jingming, feeling happy for them but also faintly proud.

After the game, the two players shook hands, and Green extended his hand to Song Xueyang very gracefully, "You are indeed a genius commander, and I am ashamed of myself as the captain."

In both the wild card game and the World Championship, he was defeated tactically, and he was convinced of the loss.

Song Xueyang smiled calmly, "The honor you brought to the team is beyond my reach, Prince Green."

Five points for praise, five points for ridicule, Green performed a Chinese fist-cup ceremony, "Chinese speech art, I have learned."

He then shook hands with Shen Huai again, but what he said this time had nothing to do with this match, "Wing, you will definitely become the person who stands at the pinnacle of the world's personal solo."

What he said was firm and full of strength, as if he had already seen that day.

Shen Huai slightly raised the corners of his mouth, "Thank you, I will lend you a good word."

Pablo and Louis were chatting with Fan Jingming, and Pablo said angrily, "I was not familiar with your tactics in advance! Next year, Louis and I will definitely win back!"

Fan Jingming smiled generously, "I'm afraid it won't work next year, try to get out of the group stage, and see you in the semi-finals."

Pablo felt melancholy when he heard the words of the semi-finals, and repeatedly said "difficult, difficult".

This year's grouping is too miserable. If they are assigned to other groups, there is still a chance. In Group A, there are two strong teams, the world runner-up Xiaolang and the Korean runner-up Live. Originally, Live lost two games in a row and they had a little hope, but it turned out After the first battle with Fengyue, they found that their obstacles were not limited to Xiaolang and Live. I am afraid that there is no hope of qualifying this year. They will play one game less in the group stage, so cherish it.

Louis noticed Fan Jingming's first sentence, looked him up and down for a moment, "Are you going to retire?"

"You've reached your age," Fan Jingming said with a smile, patted Shi Yi on the back and pushed him forward, "Next year, please take care of this little guy!"

Shi Yi hadn't recovered yet, and he was afraid that people would see that his eyes were red, so he just bowed and shook hands with the two seniors, then lowered his head and didn't speak.

Louis looked at him for a while, and said considerately, "It seems that your partner is very reluctant to part with you. You should have a good talk with him. Your partner is the person in the team who understands you best, and the person who can play well with you in the world. He's the only one, isn't he?"

Fan Jingming was taken aback for a moment, and was interrupted by Pablo before he could think about it.

"Ahhh, this 2V2 loss is so miserable, will Luo Lie be disappointed in me?"

"..."

Fan Jingming was distracted by his interruption, "Captain Luo?"

Louis twitched the corner of his mouth, and complained in a low voice, "I really want to tell him that Luo Lie admires Wing so much, he might be so happy seeing you guys win."

"Uh... don't talk about it."

ShowTime's boxer was talking to Zhou Ning, and Zhou Jing was left in a daze, so Hai Xing couldn't help leaning over, "How do you feel? Are you still uncomfortable?"

Zhou Jing turned her head and met those dark eyes. Hai Xing immediately regretted talking to him, and quickly turned her head away to start the self-questioning mode, "You don't look too good, so don't force yourself. , When I go back later, I will take the co-pilot, you can rest in the back!"

After speaking, he hurried to Zhou Ning to talk to ShowTime's boxer, but his English is not very good, this is his first time abroad, and he couldn't understand what they were talking about, Zhou Jing saw him from the side With a dazed and serious look on his face, he couldn't help but smile.

On the way back, everyone squeezed forward and let Zhou Jing rest in the back row. Perhaps the stone in her heart fell, and she fell asleep quickly this time.

Zhou Ning took off his coat and covered her, reaching out to explore her forehead.

Song Xueyang asked in a low voice, "Is the fever gone?"

Zhou Ning nodded, and Song Xueyang felt relieved, "Thanks to her today, brother Kun found a Chinese cook, I asked him to cook some good dishes, and I will reward everyone tomorrow."

Starfish is very happy, he doesn't want to eat pickles anymore, bah, pickles.

When we got off the car, everyone walked from the parking lot to the hotel together. Zhou Jing sneezed, and Hai Xing looked at her sideways, wanting to speak but not daring.

He regretted a little, why did he hear those words?If he didn't know what Zhou Jing liked about him, he would be able to live in peace and harmony, and he wouldn't hesitate to say anything like he does now.

Zhou Jing said suddenly, "Starfish."

"Ah...ah?" Hai Xing was like a puppy being held by the back of the neck, and he became vigilant.

Zhou Jing asked, "Where did you buy the fruit platter you sent that day?"

Hai Xing was already worried about how to reconcile with Zhou Jing, but her eyes lit up immediately after hearing her say that, "Do you want to eat? I'll go buy it for you again!"

Zhou Jing smiled and nodded, "Let's have some more yogurt, and you can also make a fruit bowl."

Hai Xing opened the chatterbox and started talking, "Okay, speaking of yogurt, I think the yogurt brought back by brother Ning is not bad! The texture is quite mellow, you must like it, I will bring you some when I come back."

"it is good."

"I see that there are several flavors, pineapple, mango, cheese, and blueberry. Ningo said there are also plum and chocolate mint. The last two sounds like dark cuisine. Do you want to try it?"

"No, I want mango."

Hai Xing felt a little regretful, "That's fine. You go back to rest first, and I'll send you there later."

After speaking, he threw the peripheral bag to Zhou Ning, turned around and ran away.

Zhou Ning couldn't help laughing, "If you don't talk to him again, he will suffocate to death."

Zhou Jing smiled, Hai Xing had a simple mind and put everything in her heart on her face. She was a little stupid, impulsive, but very kind, and she looked like an old mother after she opened her mouth. She was one of the few people who could bring her happiness.

As for the relationship, let's talk about it later.

She doesn't have much confidence to be with Hai Xing, and she doesn't want to change the status quo that much. Both she and he have more important things to do.

In the evening, when Fan Jingming came out of the bathroom, Shi Yi was watching the replay of tonight's game. This is his habit all along. After the game, he must watch it again carefully to analyze the shortcomings of his own style of play and learn from the advantages of others.

Fan Jingming never did this before, and basically listened to Song Xueyang at the replay meeting after the game, but he followed suit after He Shiyi became roommates.

When I leaned on the bedside and looked at my phone, my skin was so white and tender after taking a bath, my drooping eyelashes flickered on my lower eyelids, my toes were white and slender, and I couldn't even tell which one was better when I stepped on the pure white quilt. Whiter.

Fan Jingming's throat was tight, and he walked over to touch his half-wet hair, "The hair has grown."

Shi Yi raised his hand and touched it, "The last haircut was with you, and I haven't had a haircut since the national competition."

Fan Jingming knew very well how hard Shi Yi worked during training, so he probably never thought about cutting it unless he said it.

He had been thinking about what Louis said when he just took a shower. He himself is the type who doesn't take anything seriously. Retiring is a bit sad for him, but it's just that.But times are different. He has always been very emotional and sensitive. Every time he mentioned his retirement, he was very sad, but he didn't say anything. He should have a good talk with him.

Fan Jingming was thinking about how to bring up the topic, "Then after the World Championship is over, I'll accompany you to cut it again."

The little heads of his subordinates nodded lightly, and the atmosphere was a little depressed for a while.

Fan Jingming sat down on the window sill next to him, his two slender legs could still step on the floor, "You, once you start training, you won't be able to care about anything. I will ask you to get your hair cut every other month from now on. Bar."

Shi Yi raised his head, "Brother Xiaoming, will you develop in Shanghai after you retire?"

"Of course." Fan Jingming said without hesitation, "I still like Shanghai quite a lot. I'm a model. Where else can I go if I don't develop in Shanghai?"

"Have you found a good company?"

Fan Jingming was a little surprised by his attitude. He seemed to have accepted the fact and was able to mention this matter to himself very calmly.

"Not yet, the current modeling agencies love to find newcomers, and I'm still a bit older at this age."

"But you have a fan base!" Shi Yi was anxious, unable to speak fluently, "There are so many fans who like you, and you are also famous. Even if you join a professional team, you still pay attention to your body. I feel that you are better than many fans." The plane models are much more handsome!"

Fan Jingming couldn't help laughing out loud, "Well, so, don't worry too much, I will definitely find a good company, if it doesn't work, I will become the anchor, and then you have to come and support me."

Shi Yi nodded again and again, "Sure, Captain and the others will definitely go to cheer you on!"

Fan Jingming smiled, "So, I'm not too worried. What I'm most worried about is you. I haven't left yet, and you're unhappy. It makes me think about my retirement every day, and I feel so uncomfortable."

Fan Jingming was deliberately teasing him, Shi Yi was a little embarrassed by what he said, "I, I'm sorry, I thought I covered it up well..."

Fan Jingming rubbed his hair, "It's well concealed, even Louis can see it."

Shi Yi was even more embarrassed, "I just, just, Brother Xiaoming has always taken care of me, both on the court and in life. I am reluctant to let you retire, and I don't want you to leave regrets in the last year. I think Let everyone remember you, you are a very good, all-round player, I just don't want you to leave without leaving your name."

Fan Jingming's heart warmed. No one had ever said these words to him.

He joined the team with Zhou Ning. At that time, it was entirely because of his good appearance. He may have stayed until now because of his extraordinary talent.

Three years ago, he didn't care about winning or losing at all, and devoted himself to attracting fans in live broadcasts and modeling work. The first person to change him was Song Xueyang. Song Xueyang's methods after becoming the captain made him realize that he might not work hard. To be eliminated, and even if it is an e-sports job that he doesn't care much about, he doesn't like being fired.

But at that time, he still had no desire to win or lose, and he didn't care much about the results of the competition. He just wanted to live freely and happily. Song Xueyang should have seen his thoughts. The reason why he didn't say anything about him was probably because he had done his duty with due diligence. Training, in fact, at that time, he was a little in awe of the captain who was a few years younger than himself.

Hai Xing joined the team two years ago. Xiaodong’s enthusiasm and strong competitive spirit made him work hard for his teammates, but victory was still just a simple word for him. The person who changed him the most was Shi one.

He looks thin and small. Although he is talented, his psychological quality is not good enough, and he is far behind others at the starting line. However, he works so hard, and is so eager to win and to be recognized. For the first time, Fan Jingming has the desire to protect others. dream feelings.

What an excellent player, he was not in the past, but he is this year.

Today's victory is inseparable from his one-year hard work, and it also allowed him to taste how sweet the fruit he planted by himself is when it ripens. He even regretted that he was too late, but he felt that it was not that late.

He smiled, "You did it, didn't everyone remember me in today's game?"

Today's 2V2 they played with a unique way of thinking, and Pablo and Louis, the world-famous duo, were the rockers. Their demolition team became famous in the first battle and was known by players all over the world.Even the Korean media gave them a very high evaluation——

"Before today, no one thought that Berserk and Elemental could form a partner. After today, everyone will remember them in their hearts."

Shi Shi nodded, and then smiled again, "It's agreed, I will stay in Shanghai in the future, and I will be asked to cut my hair."

"Okay, should you give such a considerate teammate a hug?"

He opened his hands as he spoke, and his slender limbs almost occupied the entire head of the bed, making that embrace look so safe and reliable.

Shi walked over to hug him without thinking, Fan Jingming tightened his arms, smelled the aroma of shampoo on Shi's head, and quietly closed his eyes.

Today's game was won beautifully. Song Xueyang was very happy when he returned to his room. He was not in a hurry to watch the replay of the game. Instead, he called the club first and reported the situation of today's game. Let them take the opportunity to promote Fan Jingming online. He Shiyi, give them a boost of popularity.

After he hung up the phone, Shen Huai sighed, "The more I get along with you, the more I feel that being the captain is really not easy."

Song Xueyang didn't take it seriously, "Didn't you also be the captain? Captain Shen of Team Loong?"

Shen Huai shook his head, "I wasn't the captain in those few days, and everyone was a well-trained old player. I don't need to worry about it. You are different. Fengyue's players were all brought out by you. You just accepted Did you put a lot of effort into the team?"

Song Xueyang became the captain by airborne, and Shen Huai was very interested in what happened when he first joined the team.

Song Xueyang recalled the ethos in the team at that time, and talked to Shen Huai about some interesting things, "Sun Yuan's moves are too low-level. The troublesome thing is Fan Jingming. He is capable and talented, but he is not good at the game." Not caring, but will complete the task on time and according to the quantity, except for being unmotivated, there is no fault at all."

"Then how did you get him?"

"I didn't do anything." Song Xueyang spread his hands, "A type like him who looks carefree on the surface, but is actually clear in his heart, it's useless to say more. I just work hard on the atmosphere in the team Fortunately, Hai Xing has a straightforward and passionate character, and the atmosphere in the team has improved a lot since he joined the team."

Shen Huai recalled what Song Xueyang said immediately when Fan Jingming and Shi left the game today, and was a little impressed, "I was very moved by what you said when Xiao Ming and Shi left the game today, and I am also very happy that they won. But there is no way to say what they care about most and what they want to hear the most without appearing too ostentatious like you, which is what I appreciate."

After Shen Huai and Song Xueyang got acquainted, he was not the type who would hide anything he said. He was never stingy in praising Song Xueyang. Although he couldn't say the most eloquent words, he could describe them in the most straightforward terms. own feelings.

"But you just said what I care about and want to hear the most."

Shen Huai was taken aback, Song Xueyang took his hand and said with a smile, "As long as I think, I can say what everyone likes to hear, but only you in this world can say what I want to hear most."

After Song Xueyang finished speaking, he looked up at him, his eyes seemed to overflow with emotion, and seemed to be signaling him something.

Without any words, Shen Huai already understood, and then the two spoke in unison.

"I love you."

"I love you."
