Chapter 227: I Also Have Someone I Want to Protect
Feng Yan lowered his head and clenched his fists.
He stared at Gao Yanchen and chuckled after a while. “Xiao Chen, I’d rather you hated me.”
After saying this, he stood up and took a step back.
He stared at Gao Yanchen, looking at him for a moment before saying, “You can’t enter the battle team. Even if you try to join another, you won’t have me to compete with.”
After saying this, he turned around to leave.
Just as he reached the door, he heard a commotion behind him.
He turned around and saw that Gao Yanchen had already grabbed the glass of water beside him and was throwing it at him. “Feng Yan, go to hell!”
However, the cup was tilted and smashed toward Feng Yan.
“Pa!”
It landed on the ground with a crisp sound.
Feng Yan turned to look at him again. There was bitterness in his eyes, but he still said, “If you still acknowledge me as your brother, then don’t join a professional team. No matter which team it is, if you come in, I’ll retreat.”
After saying this, he pushed open the door and walked out.
From the moment they heard the sound of the glass in the ward, the three people outside had walked in. The moment they entered, they heard Feng Yan’s hard-hearted words. After Feng Yan left, the three of them looked at Gao Yanchen.
Qin Shuang was furious. “F*ck! Brother Chen, you’ve never been this angry in your life! Isn’t it just XH? If you buy it, let’s see how he can still be unreasonable! The Demon is formidable, but can he monopolize the entire eSports scene?! He’s too arrogant!”
Gao Yanchen’s face darkened and he did not speak.
The more Qin Shuang thought about it, the angrier she became. She continued nagging, “I used to like the Demon, but I didn’t expect him to be like this. His words were too arrogant. Sister Xi, don’t you agree?”
Xue Xi also nodded and looked at Gao Yanchen. “Don’t worry, I won’t go.”
Feng Yan had already bullied Little Flame, so how could she still play marksman in his team?
Gao Yanchen kept a straight face and did not speak. He glanced at Xue Xi, then suddenly turned around and buried his head in the blanket. “I want to rest for a while.”
Qin Shuang and Xue Xi looked at each other and nodded.
When the two of them walked out, Xue Xi realized that Xiang Huai, who was standing beside them just now, had disappeared.
…
Outside the hospital.
Feng Yan walked out the door and sensed the footsteps behind him. He hurriedly stopped and respectfully greeted, “General Xiang.”
Xiang Huai placed both hands in his pockets. After he left Xue Xi’s side, his entire person had turned cold and sharp, and his aura was now filled with a strong sense of oppression.
Even a Demon like Feng Yan who was a tyrant in the eSports scene could not withstand his pressure.
Feng Yan lowered his head again.
Xiang Huai took a step forward. “Aren’t you afraid of angering me?”
Feng Yan slowly raised his head. “I’m afraid.”
His eyes were resolute. Both of them were about the same height, but Xiang Huai’s aura was too strong. Feng Yan was like a child in front of him.
However, he still said word by word, “But I also have someone I want to protect.”
Xiang Huai frowned at this.
After exchanging glances, Xiang Huai sneered and turned to leave.
After he left, Feng Yan wiped the cold sweat on his forehead again.
In that instant, he’d felt a murderous intent rising from Xiang Huai.
Feng Yan took a deep breath and slowly exhaled the fear in his heart. He then strode back to the club.
It was late at night.
However, the people playing eSports were all night owls, and his teammates were still playing games overnight.
After the car accident, those who could endure were all persisting, but everyone’s arms were injured. And because their reflexes were not as quick as before, the team had started to nurture new members.
A few rookies from the training camp were brought up to replace the original positions, but these people were still far from being professional.
Seeing Feng Yan return, the manager of the club rushed over. “How is it?”
Feng Yan said, “It’s fine.”
As he walked forward, the in-charge sighed. “Captain Feng, I really don’t know if you love the club or not.”
Feng Yan was stunned.
The in-charge sighed. “When something happened to the team, you took out all the assets you’ve earned over the years and invested them into the team until now. You’ve been working hard to nurture new members, looking for new players, and even… getting injured. I always thought that you had the most feelings for the team.”
At this point, the in-charge was confused. “But why won’t you allow the top marksman in the national server to join our team?”
Feng Yan ignored him and continued to walk upstairs to his own bedroom. As he walked, he said, “He can’t.”
The person-in-charge stood rooted to the ground.
Feng Yan turned to look at him. “If you still recognize me as a teammate, then no matter if he buys the club or joins us, please choose to reject him. Otherwise, I will leave the team.”
The in-charge stood rooted to the ground.
Everyone had been working hard for five years and had reached the most glorious level step by step. How could they not have feelings for each other?
If Feng Yan said that, what else could he do? He could only sigh…
But why?
He’d heard that the national server’s top shooter was once a good brother to Captain Feng.
…
When Gao Yanchen said that he wanted to be alone, Xue Xi and Qin Shuang left the ward.
After standing outside for a while, Xiang Huai asked them to go back and rest. “You guys have classes tomorrow.”
Gao Yanchen’s life was no longer in danger, and there was nothing much to do now. Xue Xi and Qin Shuang thought about it and agreed.
The moment they went downstairs, Xiang Huai’s cars arrived.
Qin Shuang looked at the black luxury cars in front of her and was stunned. “Are these luxury cars the ones Brother-in-law arranged for us?”
Xue Xi did not think much of it. The two of them got into their respective cars and left.
On the way back to school, she thought for a while and found a WeChat message to send him: “I’ll only be teammates with Little Flame.”
This was her bottom line for friends.
After sending this message, she put down her phone.
When she arrived outside the school, Xue Xi was just about to climb over the wall and enter the school when she saw the security guard standing at the entrance, seemingly waiting for her.
Why is he still waiting for me at this late hour?
Xue Xi paused for a moment, then saw the security officer waving at her. “Student, hurry up and go back to school. It’s already so late. Don’t run around outside!”
Xue Xi nodded and entered the school.
As she was not in high school, the dormitory management was not very strict. She entered the dormitory and quietly pushed open the door to return to her bed.
…
The next day, Xue Xi went to class after she woke up. Just as she entered the classroom, she saw Li Xi looking at her and asking aggressively, “Xue Xi, where did you go last night?”
Xue Xi ignored her.
Li Xi continued shouting, “We’re here to study, not to be in a relationship! You actually played until late at night before coming back?! Don’t you know how to behave properly?”
