Chapter 873: Disconnection and reconnection, remote login?
Yuqing County, Imperial Private Room.
Hot pot always gets more delicious the more you eat it. If the food is not enough, add more food. If the wine is gone, add more wine. After a few rounds, the atmosphere at the dinner table becomes more and more lively. There is no clique anymore at the boys' table.
The atmosphere became more and more intense as everyone drank, and a few people joined in, not from the same class, but from the same high school, turning the class party into an alumni association.
It was Li Xiufeng who was more depressed. Others were drunk and yelled at the top of their lungs, saying, "I'm not drunk. I'm not drunk. Who says I'm drunk? Who am I to blame?"
Li Xiufeng couldn't get drunk. Whether it was beer or white water, it was almost like bland boiled water when it went into his mouth. He didn't feel at all. If he was really not drunk, he would still have to "get drunk" with everyone else.
At the end, some people could no longer hold on and had a truce against the sofa next to the box. Others had just gone to the bathroom to finish vomiting and were smoking cigarettes and thinking about life.
Well, drinking alcohol is harmful to your health, so you must not drink it next time.
In the midst of the commotion, Li Xiufeng stood up unsteadily and prepared to go to the bathroom.
"Brother Feng, let me toast you."
A tall guy at the boys' table suddenly came over with a big cup and said drunkenly, "Not much else to say, I just want you to defeat those guys in South Korea, win glory for the country, and bring glory to us old guys.
My classmates blushed."
"Brother Feng, I want to toast you too. I usually brag about you with my colleagues." Someone next to him followed up with a toast.
"Brother Jingfeng, how can I be missing?" Someone else raised their glasses.
Li Xiufeng glanced at everyone and knew that these grandsons wanted to get drunk harder, so he deliberately looked drunk, waved his hands and said vaguely,
"Everyone sit down, everyone, sit down, this way, I'll drink the wine, you can do whatever you want."
After saying that, he picked up the wine and raised his head for a while.
"Okay! Well done, Brother Feng!"
"happy!"
"Arrogant!"
Everyone cheered for a while, thinking that they finally got you, a public enemy of a man, drunk, so they also drank a drink.
Li Xiufeng put down the pot and said inarticulately, "No, no, no, I'm going to the bathroom, and we'll continue when we come back."
After saying that, Li Xiufeng left the table in triumph amid the applause of the crowd.
In the corner of the girl's table, Yao Shanshan had a slight blush on her face as she drank one cup after another, as if she had something on her mind.
The young woman who just made fun of "Brother Feng has quick hands" sat next to her and said with a smile, "These men are so boring, I just know how to catch one and drink them."
"Hey, hey, brother Feng has gone to the bathroom." The young woman crossed her legs, shook a red wine glass a few times, and said with a half-smile, "Go over now, maybe there is a chance."
"Ah?" Yao Shanshan was startled, and her face suddenly turned red.
The young woman lowered her head and glanced at the red wine in the goblet, and said with a chuckle, "I really envy you people who can still pursue love at this age. It's not like me. I got married right after graduating from high school, and now I'm living in a muddle with my baby. You
It’s different. If a man tells the truth after drinking, we women can do it too.”
"That...that...I'm not..." Yao Shanshan's heart was confused.
Seeing this, the young woman said with interest, "You are still as shy as before. Although there were many girls in the class who failed to confess their love to Brother Feng, and I failed too, at least youth will not leave regrets, but you
If you keep doing this, won't you regret it in the future?"
"You...how do you know?"
"Haha, no one in our class can see that."
At this point, the young woman's eyes drifted to the door and continued with a smile, "Are you really not going? Brother Feng is so drunk now. It doesn't matter if he fails to confess his love. Maybe he will forget it when he sobers up, but if he succeeds,
..."
Hula——!
Yao Shanshan stood up immediately, lowered her head and said, "I...I...I'm going to the bathroom too."
After saying that, she didn't care whether the people around her heard her clearly, she picked up the small bag at hand, stood up, and quickly ran towards the door.
After Yao Shanshan left, the girls' table, which had been lively just now, suddenly fell silent for a second. Everyone glanced at Yao Shanshan's leaving figure at the door, intentionally or unintentionally.
In the blink of an eye, everyone returned to normal and seemed not to care.
Only the young woman who was sitting next to Yao Shanshan just now, holding the red wine glass in her hand, bowed in the direction where Yao Shanshan left at the door, and then took a small sip.
...
After leaving the box and closing the door, the lively atmosphere was instantly cut off by a door, making Yao Shanshan feel like she was in another world.
She raised her hand and rubbed her forehead. She didn't feel anything while sitting there drinking just now. Now she got up and took a few steps. She suddenly felt dizzy and her walking seemed a little unsteady.
There was no bathroom on the second floor of the hotel. Yao Shanshan went downstairs along the escalator. When she was about to go to the bathroom at the corner, she turned around and found a familiar figure standing in front of the vending machine in the lobby, inserting coins.
He stood very steadily, only the side of his face could be seen, and he did not look drunk at all.
The music in the hotel lobby had just finished playing an English song "And Then You". After a brief silence, the prelude of the next song sounded.
At the escalator, Yao Shanshan hesitated for a moment and took steps.
"Forever grateful that you ran across the playground to me"
"The sun is shining brightly, burning your cheeks and warming your smile."
"..."
When Yao Shanshan walked next to Li Xiufeng, the song in the lobby happened to sing the phrase "The bell rings through the long years."
Li Xiufeng took out a bottle of Coke from the vending machine, pulled the tab, and the sizzling bubbles hit his eardrums.
He turned around and saw Yao Shanshan. He was slightly startled and then quickly smiled. The eyes under his eyelashes were like an extension of the sky and the sea, blue and clear, just like they were in high school.
"Are you coming down too? What do you want to drink? I'll treat you."
Yao Shanshan's face turned red and she mustered up her courage, "I...give me a bottle of soda."
Li Xiufeng turned around and took out the change from his pocket, and while drinking a Coke, he put it in again.
Soon, there was a "bang" at the pick-up port.
"I...I like you."
The air suddenly became quiet.
In early summer, the afternoon sun shines into the lobby, making you feel like you are soaking in warm water, your whole body feels warm, and the singing is still echoing on the radio in your ears.
"When we grow up, the world is like a net, catching our wings
Memories are heavy in my heart
Occasionally sing softly solo
Can the lost power be recovered?"
Li Xiufeng bent down slightly, took out the soda water from the delivery port, turned around and handed it to Yao Shanshan, nodded with a smile, "I know."
"Then what?"
Then what?
Yao Shanshan was asked.
Yes, what then?
They are no longer students. They are no longer at that age where a love letter in the afternoon can express their success. They are no longer at that age where they can skip class and go out to hit the street together.
"Then what?"
Yao Shanshan lowered her head and said to herself blankly.
Even if Li Xiufeng agreed, the other party is no longer in Yuqing.
Can I give up the stable job that I finally found through my connections at home? Can I give up my parents, relatives and friends in this place and move away from home?
It turns out that I...
Still haven't thought of anything as before.
Yao Shanshan, who lowered her head, shook her head vigorously, sniffed like a puppy, raised her head with a smile on her red face, and took the soda water handed by Li Xiufeng.
"Thank you."
"You're welcome, go back, everyone should be waiting impatiently."
"Yeah, but thank you anyway."
"You really don't have to be so polite. Just remember to treat me to a drink next time."
Hearing this, Yao Shanshan burst out laughing. She suddenly looked Li Xiufeng up and down and winked playfully, "By the way, weren't you drunk just now?"
"Ah? Am I not drunk now?" Li Xiufeng asked with a smile.
"No, I'm going to expose your true face."
"Okay, then I have to consider whether to stay alive."
The two of them were chatting and laughing, and walked up the escalator to the second floor one after another. Yao Shanshan, who was behind, stopped at the corner and listened to the music in the lobby.
"Farewell to my first love, farewell to the name tag on my uniform
Say goodbye to innocence and learn to push away the haze of rainy days
Frustration and loss come back again and again, but you can't give up and love bravely
It was you who made me believe in the future..."
...
Jianghai, EDE club base.
After posting on Weibo last night, the factory director stopped touching his phone.
Although Zhu Caide, the boss of EDE, is neither a businessman nor a traitor, at least he said something right. The factory director is a man of his own opinion. He rarely changes his words and decisions, just like when he left EW.
But people always get older, and it has been five years since then.
You were a young man five years ago, high-spirited and quick to drive, and never turn back to let go. Five years later, you may not be as clean and tidy.
The older a person gets,
The easier it is to feel sad about spring and autumn.
Although the factory director has not been looking at his phone since he posted on Weibo, he has been working in this industry for so many years and has been scolded and praised. If he closes his eyes, he can guess what is going on in the comment area now.
He didn't look because he was afraid.
Afraid to see those fans who really want him to come back, afraid to see what they say, afraid that I am actually reluctant to leave this stage where I have entrusted all my youth...
"Has the application form been written out?" Abu came over and asked.
"Yeah." The factory director nodded, "What do you want to eat for lunch?"
Abu didn't answer what he had for lunch, and still looked at the factory director.
"Just think about it. Since Brother Feng, the league has stipulated that you cannot come back within one year of retirement. Once your form is submitted for approval, it will be another way from now on."
Professional players are very hungry for status. After retiring for a year without playing professionally, there will be no training games, and no targeted guidance from coaches and analysts. For most professional players, it is better to quit forever.
After a moment of silence, the factory director did not answer, but just said, "Can you guys stop eating eggplants at noon? I have hated eating eggplants since I was a child, but you guys eat eggplants every three days."
"What does this have to do with eggplant?" Abu was speechless.
"What does it have to do with me if you can't come back after one year of retirement?" The factory director looked at him expressionlessly.
After hearing the factory director's words, Abu sighed and said nothing more.
"The boss is not here today. I seem to have an event. In the afternoon, you can sort out the information and submit it to the boss. He has some connections in the alliance and can speed up the procedures for you."
The factory director nodded and said he understood.
In fact, Boss Zhu came back sooner than expected.
EDE and his team were still eating at noon, perhaps because they knew the news that the factory director announced his retirement on Weibo last night. This meal was quite depressing. Everyone was eating rice, eating vegetables and spooning soup, and even chewing the food they tried to keep their voices down.
"Eh? Are you eating them all?"
When Zhu Caide came back, his face was red and he walked over with his belly swaying.
Seeing the bright smile on Zhu Caide's face, everyone here felt a little bit sad, and secretly cursed in their hearts that the capitalists really didn't have any good things.
"The factory director comes to my office after eating. I have something to discuss with you."
"Okay." The factory director nodded.
After saying that, he put down the bowl and chopsticks and wiped his mouth, "I'm done eating, you eat."
Everyone knew what that meant. Looking at the back of the factory director walking towards the office, step by step, it was like seeing the end of a legendary era.
after an hour.
The factory director came out of the office, and everyone looked at him.
They want to find the twilight, loneliness, and sorrow in the face of the factory director...
None!
What replaced it was an indescribably weird look.
As soon as the factory director came out, Zhu Caide also walked out of the office with a smile, knocked on the stair railing on the second floor, and said to the people eating in the living room on the first floor, "Everyone, excuse me, I have news to announce."
"Director, you are about to leave our EDE."
Everyone's faces showed just the right amount of sadness when they heard this.
"Well, after friendly negotiation, the factory director will join the KG team as the starting jungler next season."
Waterfa?!
The moment they heard the news, everyone in the hall downstairs was stunned. The first reaction was to recall whether today was April Fools' Day, and then they remembered that April had already passed.
But, damn, why?
The factory director seemed to notice the confusion on everyone's faces, opened his mouth, and finally said, "I obey the club's arrangements."
Is this... arranged?
But why did you arrange for KG to go?
Although it is true that KG lacks a jungler, the factory director...can't do it!
Abu left EW with the factory director and joined the new team EDE. It can be said that the two of them have been together through thick and thin together.
After a brief moment of astonishment, he quickly realized what joining KG meant to the factory director.
Reputation, status, contract, respectability...
risk everything,
Go fight for a championship.
Bang bang bang——!
Soon, Abu applauded.
Everyone gradually recovered from their confusion and clapped along with some confusion.
...
That evening, the factory director, who updated his Weibo once a year, rarely updated his second Weibo post yesterday, following the one he posted yesterday: "You may be able to see the road ahead more clearly under the stage."
"There is no road in this world, but I want to walk @KG Club again."
Soon, the KG club official also posted on Weibo.
“After friendly negotiations and full communication between the club, EDE Club, and factory director players, and on the basis of respecting the player’s wishes, we are very honored to announce that LPL player No. 001 has been disconnected and reconnected.
Landing place: KG Club!”
In the blink of an eye, the Weibo comment section exploded again, and things quickly went off the rails.
