At this moment, Lin Cheng took a step forward and directly punched me in the chest, "Damn, why didn't you retaliate earlier? Did your father ask you to block it for me?"

When Lin Cheng said those words, he was smiling. The care and concern between men didn't show on his face. Sometimes, a punch would clear up the other party's mind.

I smiled and said, "Your temperament has changed. If this goes on, I'll be dragged down by you."

"Little bastard, next time you dare to block it for me, I will cut off all ties with you." Lin Cheng handed over a cigarette and scolded with a smile.

Halfway there, Qing Xiaoxuan and I walked together, while Lin Cheng and the other two followed behind us with smiles on their faces. The atmosphere between her and I was slightly awkward. At that moment, I let out a cry and hurriedly covered my face.

"Jiang Yuan, how are you? Does it still hurt? " Qing Xiaoxuan asked nervously.

"Aiyo, it hurts so much. Help me massage it." My throat rolls a little as I speak to her, a little perturbed.

The next moment, Qing Xiaoxuan came in front of me with a blush on her face. She stood on her tiptoes and directly kissed my face.

"..."

"Jiang Yuan? What are you laughing about? "

"Maybe he's been beaten silly. How about we send him to the hospital?"

"Pa." Lin Cheng smacked my head. I sucked in a mouthful of saliva from the corner of my mouth. After putting away my fantasies, I looked at Lin Cheng grudgingly. "Why did you hit me?"

Lin Cheng opened his mouth and said, "Motherf * cker, have you been beaten silly? You started laughing foolishly when you were walking with Little Xuan. You scared Little Xuan to death."

I acted as if I didn't hear what Lin City said. Remembering the scene that just appeared in my mind, I cried out before covering my face with my hands.

"Jiang Yuan, how are you? Does it still hurt? " A worried word reached my ears.

Everything went according to plan. During this time, I took a deep breath and said, "Aiyo, it hurts so much. Help me massage it."

"After saying that, I narrowed my eyes and saw Lin Cheng's face growing larger in my eyes. Damn it, I immediately jumped up and struck him with my palm." "Pa!" Lin Cheng looked at me, feeling wronged. "Didn't you ask me to help you massage? Why did you hit me?"

The three of them hid to the side and secretly laughed. Helplessly licking my face, they walked in front of Qing Xiaoxuan, "Little Xuan, help me massage it. It hurts."

"Nope." Qing Xiaoxuan rolled her eyes at me, then the four of them walked away. I, who was left alone in my original spot, had a bitter expression on my face.

"..."

Just as I was about to give chase, I suddenly felt my pocket shake. I pulled out the phone and immediately froze. I'm familiar with this number. I've called countless times in three years, but I don't want to answer it and I don't dare to. However, I was worried that this phone would not find me, so I kept my phone number for the past three years without changing it at all.

This time, I took a deep breath and pressed the answer button. I didn't say anything and just quietly listened.

"Son, it's been three years. Are you still blaming me?"

On the other end of the phone, his words were filled with regret and heartache.

"It's almost the Mid-Autumn Festival. Can we go home to eat? Your mother misses you. " It was almost a plea.

I pursed my lips. A grown man's tears fell on the spot, and I forced myself not to cry. After a long time, I still couldn't think of what I wanted to say. "Son, your mom and I have cooked a lot of things you like to eat. There's a mushroom stew, a spring roll, and your favorite fried pork with leek."

This time, the voice on the phone was old and helpless. I cried out loud and said in a choked voice, "Dad, I'll be back in three days."

"Sigh, son, dad bought a new computer for you. The one you had at the Fang family in the past was too old and can't be played anymore."

After hanging up the phone, I immediately squatted on the floor as tears continuously flowed down my face. I took out cigarettes with trembling fingers, one after another, and half an hour later, my throat started to burn. Even so, I was still fiercely sucking on the smoke in the innermost area.

"Jiang Yuan, what are you doing?" Lin City, who was walking forward, realised that something was wrong and immediately rushed over to snatch the cigarette in my mouth. I stiffly raised my head and looked at Lin City. The light of the night had made my eyes completely red.

"What's the matter with you?" Lin Cheng's tone became serious as he stared at me.

"I'm fine." I shook my head and silently walked forward. My mind was filled with the contents of the short phone call.

"That's right, where's Little Xuan? Didn't she just go back to find you?" At this moment, Taoritine looked at me and asked.

I opened my mouth, but just as I was about to speak, I saw Qing Xiaoxuan walking towards me with a downcast expression on her face. After staring for a few seconds, she stretched out her slender fingers and wiped away my tears before softly saying, "Jiang Yuan, if you miss home, then book a plane ticket home tomorrow. Then we won't be playing in the tournament anymore."

I bitterly smiled and shook my head. How could I not understand the hope they placed on me in this competition? Moreover, this was my belief and expectation. Under the gazes of the three of them, I directly grabbed onto Qing Xiaoxuan's hand. The moment that small hand entered my palm, I felt an ice-cold feeling of smoothness.

"My promise to you four will not change because of anything."

Qing Xiaoxuan tried to struggle free from her grasp, but she struggled a few times before following me. She lowered her head, and even the darkness around her couldn't cover the blush that appeared on her face.

"I'm sorry." Suddenly, I reacted and quickly let go of my hand.

This time, she and I had truly entered into an awkward atmosphere. In this atmosphere, my entire body felt uneasy, but luckily, Lin Cheng laughed as he opened his mouth and said, "Everyone has been busy for the entire day, let's go eat something first. Since the Internet Cafe competition will only be held for three days, after three days Jiang Yuan can just let us have our leave."

After dinner, Lin Cheng immediately grabbed me and said, "Jiang Yuan, I might have offended those hoodlums today, but I'm afraid it won't be safe. Please send Qing Xiaoxuan back."

I let out an "ah" sound and looked at Lin Cheng in confusion, as if I was mocking him for his low EQ a few days ago. Now that we have swapped identities, I actually didn't know what to say. But what I didn't expect was that Qing Xiaoxuan didn't refuse, she just stood quietly by the side, looking at me with a gaze that had a hint of anticipation, but she hid it very well.

"Ahhh, what is it? A man must do his best to not even see her off. Don't let Little Xuan wait here." Lin Shimeng rolled her eyes at me and cursed in disappointment.

Feeling extremely helpless, I was pushed towards Qing Xiaoxuan in Lin City. In my imagination, the journey would definitely be very awkward. Strangely, however, after walking just a few meters, Qing Xiaoxuan opened her mouth, "Jiang Yuan, if I leave the team one day, will you hate me?"

My footsteps suddenly froze. I felt a trace of unease in her words.

Seeing this, she giggled and said, "It's a joke. Don't take it to heart, but you still haven't answered my question."

"You choose your own path. I can't interfere on your path, but as long as the four of you stay in the team for a day, my promise to you won't change." When I said this, I was so confused that I didn't know what I was talking about.

"Tell me, will you hate me?" Seeing that I avoided the question, Qingxiang Xuan mustered up her courage and stood in front of me. Just like that, they met my gaze.

"Yes, because of me …" Halfway through my words, I hurriedly stopped myself. The words' like you 'was forcefully swallowed back down my throat.
