Chapter 106: Running Away from Home (part II)

Unedited

There was a heavy rain outside, Yuan Xi was drenched without an umbrella, he walked through the crowd with his suitcase, feeling like a stray dog abandoned by his owner.

When he came to Shanghai alone, he was full of blood and hope, but now he is walking down the street in a state of desperation, he has no face to return to the team, and he doesn't know where to go……

At this time, the mobile phone suddenly rang, Yuan Xi immediately picked up the phone as soon as he saw the name in the caller ID: "Hello? Ah Yao!"

——Lin Yao, his best friend in the Miracle League, is also the only one who really cares about him.

When Lin Yao transferred to the Huaxia club, his situation was not very good due to the large number of Huaxia experts, it was probably due to mutual pity, although the two were in different teams, their relationship was getting closer and closer.

"What's the matter, Xiao Yuan?" Hearing that the voice of the youth on the phone was hoarse as if he had cried, Lin Yao was surprised. "Did someone bully you?"

"Nothing." Yuan Xi sniffed and asked. "How have you been?"

"It's still the same, training in the team every day. Where are you? Why do I hear a loud rain?"

"Oh, it's raining here in Shanghai." Yuan Xi ran to a place to take shelter from the rain, put the suitcase down, picked up his phone and asked. "Are you training? Isn't the Miracle League on vacation?"

"We are old friends, so I won't keep it from you." Lin Yao's voice always has a warm smile. "Do you know the game of Peerless Jianghu? The Huaxia Club has also moved in. This afternoon, when I was idle and bored, I went to the arena to play qualifying match, I met a guy named 'Dead Soul', he played the game very well and won five kills in one breath, I guess that person is you, right?"

"......" In the afternoon? He was really excited to lead the players to qualifying match and he did win five games in one set, but he had no idea who his opponent was.

"Are you accompanied by Xuewei and Xiao Chen? I can see that."

"Ah, yes, we happen to play qualifying match." Since his old friend recognized him, Yuan Xi simply admitted it.

"I didn't expect to see you again after changing the project. I'll just call you and say that I came too. I'll see you in the league next year."

"Oh, okay." Yuan Xi was silent for a moment, and then he said. "By the way, what's your name in the game? Add me as a friend, and we can play together in the future."

"My name is Flower Blooming Like Red Cloud, I have already sent a friend application, your account is not online, are you outside at the moment?"

"En…...Buy something."

"Then go quickly, I hear the rain getting louder and louder, don't get drenched."

"Okay." Yuan Xi hung up the phone and there was a little warmth in his cold heart.

——No matter how bad he is, he still has friends. Qiu Zongping looks down on him, but he can't look down on himself.

The Oriental Pearl Tower opposite the square was the place where he and Qiu Zongping had been together, he can also see the bustling landscape of Shanghai by elevator. Now it's raining heavily, and there are still some tourists from other places holding umbrellas to take photos in the square, Yuan Xi stood silently in the corner with his head hanging down and thinking, completely ignoring the curious eyes of passers-by.

***

Qiu Zongping drove all over the place where Yuan Xi might go, but still found nothing, and finally came near the Pearl Tower with a glimmer of hope. In the distance, he saw a young man shivering in the corner, with a muddy suitcase beside him, dressed very thin, with his hair hanging down over his forehead and his chin dripping with water.

He stood there alone with his head down, in sharp contrast to the bustling tourists around him, there was a kind of unspeakable loneliness in his figure.

Qiu Zongping quickly found a place to park his car and ran quickly with an umbrella.

Yuan Xi heard the sound of footsteps getting closer and closer. At last, he stopped in front of him, and a pair of leather shoes appeared in his sight, which were stained with water, the trousers legs were also soaked by water, obviously because he walked too quickly, but above the knee, the trousers were meticulous, and the shirt was tied around the waist by a black belt, showing a neat waist line, a perfect figure with wide shoulders, narrow waist and long legs, and a…... A handsome but serious face.

Looking up to see this face, Yuan Xi immediately stood up like a cat stepping on a sore foot, picked up his suitcase and turned to leave.

"Yuan Xi!" Qiu Zongping reached out and took his arm. "How old are you, still running away from home?"

"......" Yuan Xi's eyes were red, and he looked back at the other party fiercely, gnashing his teeth and saying, "Qiu Zongping, don't you think you have too much control?"

"Come back with me first." Qiu Zongping held his umbrella over his head and his voice softened. "Let's talk about it when we go back, don't catch a cold."

"Talk about what? Talk about Yuan Xi is not strong enough, find an excuse to coax him and let Zhou Xuewei replace him as captain?" Yuan Xi repeated Qiu Zongping's words and said with a sneer. "Qiu Zongping, listen! I Yuan Xi is not as smart as you, not as steady as you, not as good as you, not as popular as you——but I will never stab people in the back!"

"......" Seeing that his eyes were red and almost biting, Qiu Zongping suddenly fell silent.

"I never said a bad word about you in front of anyone! I'm a straight tempered man. I can say what I want to say and do what I want to do. I don't understand your reasoning! You look down on me, you think I'm very bad, you can tell me directly, or even let me roll the blanket and get out! But it's really mean of you to sue me in front of the manager! I thought that although we were not friends, at least we were brought out by god Mo from the training camp together, we had three years of friendship…..."

"For the past three years, I have honestly been your partner and your green leaf. If I had known that you looked down on me so much, why would I have been so cheap and stayed in Wind Color team?"

"Qiu Zongping, I didn't expect you to think of me this way. Don't worry, I won't go back to the Wind Color club, you despise me so much. No matter how bad I am, Yuan Xi is still a little shamed, I am not the captain, and I will not stay in Wind Color, you don't have to go to so much trouble to find sponsors to act, just let Zhou Xuewei be the captain!"

It rained heavily, and a string of water tracks flowed down Yuan Xi's face, didn't know whether it was rain or tears.

He looks very sad. Qiu Zongping has never seen him so sad……

He glared at Qiu Zongping, then turned away quickly, dragging his suitcase, and the thin figure drenched by the rain was particularly distressing.

Qiu Zongping quickly catches up with him and stops when he enters a hotel.

——Did he really hurt him this time?

In fact, at the moment when Zhou Xuewei said Yuan Xi might have known, Qiu Zongping realized that he had made a big mistake.

His starting point was originally for the good of Yuan Xi, and the situation was complicated. With Yuan Xi's intelligence, if he really became the captain, not only would the prospect of the team be worrying, but Yuan Xi himself would also be very difficult. He didn't want to see Yuan Xi face the bombardment of reporters and the cynicism of netizens every day, and he didn't want to see the simple Yuan Xi being bullied again and again by those captains whose minds were treacherous and unpredictable.

Qiu Zongping knows best what it's like to be a captain.

Over the past few years as captain, he has to stay up until the early morning every day, and other players only need to complete their daily training tasks, he also needs to analyze in detail the tactics of each major team, think hard to find countermeasures, and sometimes repeatedly overturn his conclusions, and then find new breakthroughs. And often died countless brain cells, stay up late for a week to come up with the tactics, as a result of the game lost, reporters and fans will rush to question the captain's decision.

The captain has too much to bear.

Yuan Xi's IQ is not high enough, his character is simple, and he is impulsive, he will be tortured to be a captain.

Qiu zongping thought that if Xuewei were to take command, all this would be solved.

But he forgot that bypassing Yuan Xi himself to find the manager was really no different from stabbing Yuan Xi in the back. What's more, Yuan Xi heard it with her own ears……

When Yuan Xi scolded him, Qiu Zongping really had no way to refute it, and Qiu Zongping was so ashamed that he was ashamed of himself.

——Yuan Xi is a bit stupid, but his nature is very good and honest.

When Qin Mo left the team, he didn't give the vice captain to him according to his expectation. Yuan Xi never blamed Qin Mo for these years, but missed Qin Mo very much, from time to time, he said: "I don't know where god Mo has gone." He didn't inherit Qin Mo's fighting style. At the beginning, he had a dispute with Qin Mo because of different ideas, but he always regarded Qin Mo as an idol. He is straightforward, a bit silly and easy to cheat, but he never wanted to hurt others in the past, he just stubbornly wanted to prove himself, wanted to lead a team to do a great things in Peerless Jianghu, proving that he is no worse than Qiu Zongping.

In fact, what did he do wrong? The biggest mistake he made was that he didn't recognize his own strength and was too eager to prove himself.

Compared with Yuan Xi's simple and straightforward way, how can it be better to step in and let the manager change the captain?

The cold rain hit Qiu Zongping, making his heart ache.

He screwed up this time, he didn't want to hurt Yuan Xi at all.

Recently, he was always restless, and the return of god Mo made him feel the strong pressure faced by Wind Color, so he was not considerate for the time being.

In his heart, Yuan Xi is a very important person, they debuted from the training camp together, together experienced the most difficult years of Wind Color team, how could he look down on the good friend who talked with him about the future when he was young?

Instead of looking down on Yuan Xi, he cared about Yuan Xi very much, so he didn't want this silly boy to be wronged in the future.

As a result, he stabbed the other side fiercely, which made Qiu Zongping's heart particularly uncomfortable.

He watched Yuan Xi's back until Yuan Xi finished checking in at the hotel front desk and entered the elevator with his suitcase, Qiu Zongping withdrew his eyes.

Qiu Zongping took a deep breath, took out his mobile phone and called the manager: "Manager, I'm going back to the team now. I have something to discuss with you."
