Chen Chong's words were like a bolt from the blue, causing the New Year's dinner table to suddenly become quiet!
Grandpa, Su Zhe's family of three, and the aunt and her husband were all stunned. They looked at Chen Chong blankly and could not speak.
After a long time, grandpa asked: "Xiao Chong, what did you say?"
Chen Chong sneered and said rather proudly: "I said I just heard the news from a friend that Su Zhe had some conflict with the top management of his club Paw Club. The top management of the club terminated Su Zhe's contract in anger. Now what you said
The so-called promising grandson has already been kicked out of the team! In other words, Su Zhe is nothing special now, which is equivalent to losing his job!"
After listening quietly, Grandpa's expression immediately became solemn. He looked back at Su Zhe and asked worriedly: "Xiao Zhe, is it true?"
Su Zhe smiled bitterly, but at the same time he felt helpless at his cousin's magical powers.
Not many teammates within the club knew about such a secret matter, but Chen Chong actually got first-hand information and revealed the news at the New Year's dinner table.
But after thinking about it, Su Zhe understood the problem. His cousin Chen Chong must have been eager to see him make a fool of himself, so he became even more concerned about his work - his cousin must have been there every day after entering the City of Kings competition from the Paw team.
He is staring at himself, just waiting for one day when something unpleasant happens to him, so that he can use it as something to talk about after dinner.
Now when Chen Chong said these words, everyone at the dinner table had different expressions.
Su Zhe looked around. The expressions of his grandfather and parents were tense. They were obviously worried and worried about their situation. However, although the eldest aunt and uncle looked frowning and anxious, they could not hide it at the corners of their mouths.
There was a rising smile, as if he had finally received good news.
Especially the aunt, when she saw Su Zhe just smiled bitterly but didn't say anything, she immediately used "concern" as an excuse and urged: "Xiao Zhe, what's going on? Are you fired? What on earth did you do to offend the club's senior management? Oh, hurry up.
Let me tell you, you are one of our own family, so don’t be afraid of embarrassment. No one will laugh at you... But my aunt can advise you as a person who has been here, don’t offend the leaders. The leaders can’t afford to offend you.
It seems like you are spoiled at home, are you talking back to the boss at work? Huh?"
However, although the aunt's words were nice, Su Zhe understood that the aunt was just waiting for an opportunity to laugh at him. Her expression said it all, and the corners of her mouth were about to fly to the sky.
However, compared to the aunt, Su Zhe's parents were really worried about Su Zhe.
"Xiao Zhe, what's going on?"
"Is what your cousin said true? Why didn't you tell us?"
The two elders asked each other, feeling that they had been deceived, and the grandfather looked solemn, fearing that his proud grandson would encounter some setbacks in his career.
While his family members were asking questions, Su Zhe was also thinking about this matter.
The truth is indeed the truth, but Su Zhe can't say it outright.
If he told everyone the truth directly, grandpa would definitely be worried. Given the old man's age, Su Zhe really didn't want to cause any more trouble to the old man during the Chinese New Year.
So after thinking about it, Su Zhe whispered: "Grandpa, don't worry, I have indeed left my previous club, but it was not the club that fired me, it was me who took the initiative to find the club to terminate the contract..."
"You took the initiative to find a club to terminate the contract?" Grandpa was stunned and asked curiously: "Is there any difference between this and being expelled from the club? Isn't it the same as leaving the job?"
The old man has absolutely no understanding of the current e-sports industry and doesn't know the difference between being fired and terminated.
The aunt next to me was even more confused and pretended to understand: "It doesn't make any difference. Anyway, we have lost our jobs. Being fired and voluntarily terminated don't mean that we can no longer stay in the original position and have resigned!"
"
Grandpa frowned at what his aunt said. He turned to look at Su Zhe and asked, "Xiao Zhe, is this really the case?"
Su Zhe shook his head and said: "Of course not. Being fired from the club means that the club doesn't want me and asked me to leave. But my voluntary termination of the contract means that I don't want to continue working at the club and want to find another way out... In short
Said, I feel that the current club has restricted my development, and I also want to try my luck at a higher platform, so I temporarily left the current club and terminated my contract with the club..."
Hearing this, Su Zhe's father was the first to react and nodded: "Oh! I understand, it was not actually Su Zhe's club that fired him, it was him who fired the club!"
After such a simple explanation, Grandpa Su Zhe also understood.
"I see..." The old man nodded, but then turned to Su Zhe and asked: "But Xiaozhe, your club treats you well. It gave you a lot of signing fees, and it also saved my urgent need.
...Speaking of the fact that the club is kind to you, if you fire them now that you have achieved something, will it be..."
The old man has received the influence of traditional culture since he was a child, and the word "loyalty" is in his bones. Therefore, when he heard Su Zhe's words, the first thing he thought of was that Su Zhe should not let him live up to the club's cultivation.
Su Zhe also understood this and nodded quickly: "Grandpa, don't worry, I have tried my best to repay you for your kindness. Although I dare not claim to be repaying you with a spring of water, I already have a clear conscience."
Grandpa naturally believed in Su Zhe's character, and after hearing what he said, he had no other doubts.
However, such a result is unacceptable to the aunt's family. How could Su Zhe deny a good opportunity to watch a good show with just a few words?
So the aunt coughed, put on a worried look and asked: "Xiao Zhe, why are you expelled from the club? I think you are talking nonsense, right? No matter how outstanding you are, you are still just a child. You have just turned 18 after the Chinese New Year.
Years old, can you be expelled from the club?"
Before my aunt could finish speaking, my cousin Chen Chong also sneered: "I've already found out what you mean by expulsion from the club. It was you who disobeyed the club's instructions in the finals and played the game according to your own wishes, which offended the leader."
, was expelled from the club. Also expelled at the same time as you were your team's support and a substitute player... It's completely nonsense to say that you were expelled from the club and you wanted to seek higher opportunities!"
Hearing what Chen Chong said, the aunt became even more excited, but she concealed it well and just stared at Su Zhe quietly, waiting for Su Zhe's explanation.
The cousin's words made grandfather and Su Zhe's parents worried. If this was really the case, then Su Zhe had deliberately lied to make everyone worry.
Su Zhe's mother asked in a low voice: "Xiao Zhe, is what your cousin said true? Did you get into trouble with the leader during the finals? Will this affect your future development?"
Su Zhe's father also frowned and asked, "Xiao Zhe, can you continue on this career path?"
Although what Chen Chong said was true, and he did have a conflict with the top management of the Paw team, Su Zhe was not worried about his future.
As long as he has a skill at hand, Su Zhe is not afraid of starving to death - he is "incognito", even without the prefix of Paw, he is still a great master!
"Don't worry, this won't have any impact on my career. It's the Chinese New Year now, and I think there will be many teams rushing to contact me after the new year." Su Zhe said calmly.
But cousin Chen Chong sneered and said: "There are many teams rushing to get you? Haha, please recognize your identity! You just made a name for yourself in the City of Kings. You haven't even played in KPL. Do you think you
Who are you? Are you the leader of the temple? Or the Skywalker of the Tiangong team? I think that once the seven days of the New Year are over, your original enthusiasm will fade away. Not to mention rushing to find you, is there any team willing to have you?
There are still two things to say!”
The aunt also quickly echoed: "That's right, don't be too confident in your life. You are young and frivolous now, and you don't know how difficult the road in society is and how complicated the road in the workplace is. I am someone who has been there. I will tell you.
Ha, this..."
However, at this moment, Su Zhe's cell phone suddenly rang.
Su Zhe was relieved and quickly walked to the balcony with his mobile phone - if he continued to listen to his aunt talking, Su Zhe would probably get calluses on his ears sooner or later...
When I walked to the balcony and looked down, I saw the call was from Han Xiaojun.
"Coach Han..."
Su Zhe was startled, and then hope suddenly ignited in his heart.
"Hello? Coach Han?" Su Zhe said with a smile.
"Su Zhe! Have a great Chinese New Year!" Han Xiaojun said with a smile. This is often the first sentence of Chinese New Year calls.
Su Zhe immediately nodded and said: "Happy New Year, Coach Han, I wish you a happy New Year..."
But Han Xiaojun immediately said impatiently: "Good news, good news..."
At first glance, Coach Han seems to have become a loudspeaker used for promotional broadcasts outside the door...
"Good news?" When Su Zhe heard these three words, he thought of the new team, because he really couldn't think of any other good news that Coach Han would bring.
As expected, Han Xiaojun smiled and said: "Su Zhe, I took the opportunity of New Year's greetings to tell Han Shan about you. That guy Han Shan is indeed a knowledgeable person and immediately told me that he would contact the Temple Team after the new year.
The higher-ups will ask you to go to the temple for a trial training!"
"real?"
Upon hearing this, Su Zhe immediately became excited.
Although he always had a feeling that it was only a matter of time for him to join the "Temple" team, but now that he heard Han Xiaojun say with his own ears that the "Temple" team's Master Hanshan would provide him with a trial training opportunity, he still felt that his dream had come true.
