Glory [e-sports]

xiin: footnote for the title – 520 sounds like ‘i love you’ in Chinese…

The future was uncertain. Rather than saying anything, it was better to really and truly spend time and heart on this ‘like’.

Wei Xiao was soon going to explode from his captain’s sweetness, “Cough, I lose.”

He’d actually lost out to his boyfriend when it came to words of love.

Um……

Little Lunatic Wei’s desire to win flared up, and he immediately said, “In that case, I’m different!”

Lu Feng didn’t look at him, but he could imagine Wei Xiao’s current appearance, “How?”

Wei Xiao spoke proudly, “For things in the future, I’ll use actions and words!”

Lu Feng laughed quietly, “Alright. If you still don’t sleep, the sky’s going to turn bright.”

In fact, Wei Xiao was a little tired, and his eyelids were fighting against him, but he didn’t want to sleep. He couldn’t bear to go to sleep.

He asked again, “Captain, what do you like about me?”

Only Wei Xiao could ask these words without embarrassment and even sound so delighted about it.

Lu Feng replied, “I don’t know.”

Wei Xiao was no longer happy. He asked further, “You don’t know?”

“Mm.” Lu Feng looked at the curtains hanging over the window on the other side of the room, “There’s too much.”

A lot, there was really too much.

Two years ago, and two years later, Wei Xiao’s every move and action was so impactful, taking over his entire field of vision.

Wei Xiao’s appearance had allowed Lu Feng to see infinite energy and infinite hope.

Wei Xiao said that, two years ago, the shadow thief in the canyon had given him a light in the darkness.

How could he not have also seen a light from Wei Xiao’s body?

Lu Feng had fallen for Wei Xiao at first sight, but it was also a love that had developed over time.

Wei Xiao was worthy of being a Close translation machine and actually understood what he meant. He was happy again, “Is it that you like too many things about me, so you don’t know?”

Lu Feng: “…….”

Wei Xiao became a little modest, “There aren’t that many things worth liking about me.”

Lu Feng: “There are.”

It was just a simple sentence, but it was enough to make the shameless Little Lunatic Wei’s face turn red.

It was over, it was over. He’d really been well and truly won over by his captain. In the future, he would definitely be henpecked, the type that could never recover.

Wei Xiao fell quiet for a while, but he couldn’t hold back the thumping of his little heart, “Since you started to like me so early on, why did you never tell me?”

If he’d said it earlier, they’d have kissed hundreds and thousands of times by now!

With this thought, Wei Xiao felt like he’d missed out on a billion dollars.

Lu Feng was silent.

The less he spoke, the more Wei Xiao wanted to know. He begged, “This is the last question, we’ll sleep after you’ve answered.”

Lu Feng: “…….”

Wei Xiao coaxed him, “Really, I’m a puppy if I still don’t sleep after that!” He even made a little ‘woof’ sound in advance.

Lu Feng sighed lightly and turned to look at him, “You’re still young.”

Wei Xiao was stunned.

Lu Feng leaned against the white pillow, his gaze even warmer than the soft lighting from the floor lamp, “I didn’t say it, because I wanted to give you more.”

In fact, Wei Xiao didn’t really understand, but he could feel the sense of being held in the palm of Lu Feng’s hand, being cared for like a treasure.

In a flash, the tip of his nose grew a little sour.

Lu Feng continued, “Friendship, affection, love, I want to give all of that to you.”

If he’d said it earlier, this passionate love would overwhelm everything else.

Wei Xiao’s heart seemed to have been struck hard by something, but the tiny pain swiftly spread out into a tingly numbness that covered his whole body.

It was like seeing the most beautiful scene in the world while floating in the clouds, so even if he fell to pieces later, there would be no regret.

He couldn’t help it.

Wei Xiao got up from bed and drilled into Lu Feng’s quilt.

Lu Feng: “…………”

Wei Xiao’s pair of sparkling eyes were filled with Lu Feng––

The indifferent Lu Feng, the alienated Lu Feng, the seemingly unfeeling Lu Feng was actually an incomparably soft and gentle Lu Feng.

Wei Xiao wanted to kiss him, wanted to kiss him hard. He wanted to let him feel the sweetness that was welling up from the bottom of his heart and squeezing its way onto his tongue.

Without waiting for him to move, Lu Feng had tilted his head and kissed him.

Wei Xiao responded, his movements clumsy but enthusiastic.

When the two of them separated, Lu Feng’s voice was a little hoarse as he spoke in his ear, “Little Xiao.”

Wei Xiao’s entire body felt like it’d been shocked by electricity. He trembled, “Mm…”

Lu Feng sighed lightly, “It’s only the first day.”

The first day of their confession, the first day they’d mutually shared their feelings, the first day they’d become boyfriends.

It wasn’t even a full day yet.

Wei Xiao didn’t understand.

Until he felt a certain hard something.

Wei Xiao: “!!!”

Lu Feng’s pair of black eyes seemed to be like a burning, raging wasteland, “Can we sleep now?”

One sentence, four words. He said it in a tone filled with patience and restraint.

If Wei Xiao still didn’t understand, then he really wouldn’t be human.

Although he didn’t act like a human all year round, he…

Ahhhh, it was too soon; good things needed preparation time.

Such an important thing, there had to be a sense of ceremony.

Wei Xiao’s face was thoroughly red. He didn’t dare to look at Lu Feng, “Sleeping.”

Lu Feng released him. Wei Xiao ran off back to his own bed and wrapped himself up like a silkworm cocoon.

“Goodnight…” He wanted to finish with ‘captain’, but his mouth couldn’t help but act up again, “Boyfriend.” After that, he quickly closed his eyes.

Lu Feng: “…….”

Wei Xiao spoke from beneath his quilt, “I also want a goodnight…”

Lu Feng: “Sleep.”

Wei Xiao exposed his eyes, wide and aggrieved.

Lu Feng pulled aside the quilt and got out of bed. Wei Xiao was frightened and hid himself in the quilt again until he heard the sound of footsteps. He poked his head out and found that the captain had gone to the bathroom.

Wei Xiao: “……”

He hid in the quilt again, his heart pounding, his face burning, his mouth muttering, “Calm down, calm down, Wei Xiao, please calm down. It’s just the first day, you can’t think about such beastly things!”

The sound of water running came from the bathroom. Wei Xiao quietly exposed his face in order to breathe.

He’d originally been on his side facing Lu Feng, but there was nobody in the bed at this time, so he turned around and faced the dim light coming from the bathroom.

The privacy setup in the standard hotel rooms were done very well. From where he was, nothing could be seen but the flow of small, raindrop-like drops of water.

Wei Xiao watched, listened, and thought…

Finally, weariness swept over him, and his eyes closed.

When Lu Feng came out, he was met with the sight of a sleeping Wei Xiaoxiao.

Wei Xiao really was young.

His attitude towards feelings and emotion was especially immature.

So young that he could express his feelings without reservation, like a child, and he was also like a child in that he didn’t understand the desires of adults.

Lu Feng liked him.

Liked all of him.

From small to large, Lu Feng cherished everything around him.

His bewildered and helpless childhood, his fallen and powerless youth, all the way until he had the ability to stand independently.

He cherished all the good things he encountered, even if it was fleeting.

Lu Feng swept aside the black hair over Wei Xiao’s forehead and pressed a kiss onto his clean forehead.

No desire, only love.

As it turned out, the great demon king couldn’t sleep that night.

It was no use being as steady as a rock. Not only that, there was still more to come.

Wei Xiao had fallen asleep, and he slept deeply, his dreams filled with colorful joy.

And then…

He ended up sleepwalking.

It made sense when he thought about it. They’d played a full day of competition games requiring high concentration levels, and then they’d stayed up so late. He’d experienced so many emotional ups and downs, and it would’ve been more strange if he didn’t sleepwalk.

Lu Feng had just fallen asleep when he felt that his quilt had been lifted up. His arm sank a little, and something wrapped around his waist and held on tight.

He opened his eyes and wasn’t surprised to see Wei Xiao with his head pillowed on his arm and his entire person pasted up against him.

Lu Feng: “…….”

Wei Xiao wasn’t on guard at all and even rubbed against his arm with his pale cheek.

Lu Feng breathed in, then held Wei Xiao closer.

Sleep, then.

It was enough as long as he could have good dreams.

When Wei Xiao woke up, he discovered that he’d changed beds.

At this moment, at this time, Brother Xiao was very flustered!

Oh shit…

Laozi hadn’t done anything beast-like, had he!

Being impatient and unable to hold back on the first day of love, Wei Xiao wasn’t that kind of beast.

Oh, if he’d really done something, he would go and chop Brother Vegetable up by hand. It was all Brother Vegetable’s fault for calling him a beast, he’d called him a beast so much that he’d really turned into one!

Brother Vegetable, who was in the room next door, “Achoo!”

Such a big sneeze. Who was cursing daddy so early in the morning.

Wei Xiao checked himself over and found that he was still dressed properly, and there were no strange marks on the bed.

It should be that nothing happened.

Wei Xiao was relieved––if he’d become lovelorn on the first day of their relationship, he would die.

When he thought about falling in love, Wei Xiao couldn’t hold down the corners of his lips again.

Ahhhhh.

His first love, his Close, his boyfriend!

Wei Xiao rolled around a few times on Lu Feng’s bed, his heart filled with so much joy that it was creating soap bubbles.

It was the so-called ‘one day apart feels like three autumns’. Wei Xiao didn’t see his boyfriend when he woke up, and he already missed him very much.

It was already past 11 o’clock. He’d missed the morning run, but he figured that the captain also hadn’t gone on his morning run.

The winter training camp was over, and they would be making their way home soon. There must be a lot of things to attend to.

FTW’s flight tickets were scheduled for around 3PM in the afternoon, so there was no hurry. He dawdled as he got out of bed; there was enough time to eat lunch before they headed to the airport.

Wei Xiao wrapped himself up in the quilt, lost in his own happiness for a while, then took out his cell phone to send a message to Lu Feng.

What should he say?

The first WeChat message after formally establishing a relationship. It had to be grand.

Wei Xiao edited the message for a long time, then finally sent it out in satisfaction.

Lu Feng was enduring a migraine in order to deal with work when his phone beeped.

Xiang Liu peeked at it.

Lu Feng picked up his cell phone and saw the message that Wei Xiaoxiao had sent over––

Captain! I like you I like you I like you (517 more repeats are omitted here, in case the author gets killed in the comments).

Lu Feng: “…….”

The dutiful and conscientious Brother Liu who was deeply immersed in supporting FTW was shocked.

Holy shit!

Was the sun coming out from the West?

The great demon king could smile like this?

Should he take a photo?!

With this photo in place, FTW’s official blog traffic would be guaranteed!

Wei Xiao then sent another message, “It’s not copy pasted, hey, every ‘I like you’ was typed out by hand.”

He’d typed out 520, he was really worthy of being himself!

Lu Feng looked at it and frowned, then called him back directly.

Wei Xiao picked up in one second, “Captain~!”

Lu Feng’s heart softened again, “You’re awake?”

Wei Xiao: “I just opened my eyes and missed you.”

Lu Feng: “…….”

He got up and avoided Xiang Liu, speaking in a low voice, “Stop fooling around.”

Wei Xiao was really muddled, “Ah?” He was still in the room and hadn’t gone out – how could he fool around?

Lu Feng said, “Using your cell phone to type so many words, aren’t your fingers tired?”

Wei Xiao got it, and the corner of his lips curved up again.

Lu Feng: “Cherish your fingers, don’t recklessly burden them.”

Thinking about Wei Xiao with his head bowed as he tapped out so many words, he not only felt heartache for his fingers, but also for his spine.

Professional players needed to take care of their bodies even more so than ordinary people if they wanted to play for a long time.

Wei Xiao’s heart felt incredibly sweet, and his voice was soft, “In that case, I won’t type next time.”

Lu Feng’s heart missed the first half a beat.

Wei Xiao: “I’ll say it to you.”

Lu Feng: “…….”

Wei Xiao: “Captain, I like you.”

Lu Feng lowered his voice, “There’s someone over here. I’ll see you soon.”

Wei Xiao didn’t bother him any further, “I want a morning kiss later.”

Lu Feng: “!”

He wasn’t in the mood to deal with business. He just wanted to go back to the room.

Fortunately, someone knocked on the door on Wei Xiao’s side, “It seems that Brother Cai’s here. I’m hanging up first.”

Lu Feng: “Mm.”

Wei Xiao went on to remind him, “You agreed, okay.”

Lu Feng: “… Okay.”

Wei Xiao was happy, “See you soon.”

Lu Feng’s heart was filled with ‘see you soon’.

After hanging up the phone, Xiang Liu looked at his boss’s appearance, and his heart was drumming in his chest: This conversation, this tone, this expression… it was really as if he had been coaxing a girlfriend!

However, as early as when Brother Liu saw who the caller was, he’d already grown very calm.

It was Wei Xiaoxiao.

This was a normal occurrence; after seeing it often, it was no longer strange.

Wei Xiao opened the door for Brother Cai.

Brother Cai glanced at him and was surprised, “What’s the matter with you?”

Wei Xiao: “Ah?”

Brother Cai choked. He didn’t dare to say that he looked like spring had come.

He was suddenly a little afraid of stepping into the room. Although his brain supplied him with little trains containing Wei Xiao and the Captain every day, these two…

Didn’t really have anything going on between them, right?!

Wei Xiao’s heart felt like it was being scratched by a cat’s paw. He badly wished that he could share his joy with his good brother, but he was also filled with scruples and didn’t dare to say more.

The environment in the e-sports circles was still very complicated.

Not to mention homosexuality, even heterosexual relationships could be hung up on the walls and hammered by the fans.

Was the regular season a grand slam? Had they won all the playoffs? Had they taken home the world cup?

Without any achievements, to hell with being in a relationship.

Wei Xiao could only bear with it. For the captain, for FTW, for the Glory circle, his life was too difficult!

Brother Cai poked his head in.

Wei Xiao said, “The captain went off to work a long time ago.”

Bai Cai let out a breath of relief, “Cough, wanna eat?”

Wei Xiao agreed, “Let’s go.”

Why was his first meal after entering a relationship going to be shared with a vegetable? Where was his boyfriend!

Fortunately, Brother Vegetable couldn’t read minds. If he knew what this beast was thinking, he would surely vomit blood.

Laozi doesn’t want to eat with you, either!

You asshole who puts love over bros!

Who could’ve known that just as they got to the elevator, they would run into Lu Feng.

Wei Xiao’s eyes lit up.

Brother Cai: “Good morning, captain.”

Lu Feng’s gaze moved away from Wei Xiao’s body and he answered, “Morning.”

The elevator arrived.

Brother Cai stepped in first, “Old Wei?” Why hadn’t he come in.

Wei Xiao tugged on Lu Feng’s arm, not letting him step into the elevator.

“You go down first. The captain and I will wait a bit.”

Brother Cai looked at the empty elevator, his head covered in question marks, “???”

Wei Xiao said randomly, “I didn’t run in the morning. We’ll take the stairs.”

Brother Cai was even more confused. At this time, it was unknown which floor pressed the button for the elevator, causing the elevator doors to close and mercilessly take Brother Cai away.

There was nobody else around. Wei Xiao turned around and pecked Lu Feng on the face.

Lu Feng caught him by the wrist and pulled him behind the stairway door.

Wei Xiao’s back was pasted against the wall, gasping for breath from his kisses, “Someone might come over.”

Lu Feng: “Mm.”

Wei Xiao pulled him closer by the collar, “… How exciting.”

Lu Feng blocked his fearless mouth that wasn’t even afraid of heaven.
