How to Easily Capture a Long Aotian [Quick Transmigration] 60

Chapter 60: The Alliance Support Who Was Suppressed by His Teammates (Part 3)

“Ahem… what do you think of my proposal?”

On the first floor of the base, Duan Qiancheng was nestled in the sofa, holding a piece of egg yolk mooncake in his left hand and his phone in his right. He didn’t have time to eat. He was browsing the live stream while replying to the inquiries of the various clubs.

The live stream was a recording of the match just now.

Duan Qiancheng was rarely this excited. “I’m serious. Yu Lin has too many haters right now. This live stream is just in time. I’ll let the PR department handle it and promote it at the same time.”

This old dog didn’t mention at all that he had originally planned to use him as an experience pack. Holding his phone, he draped his jacket over his shoulders, and his smile was downright lewd. “Damn, I’m a genius. What kind of luck is this? I just went out for a meal, and a god of wealth dropped from the sky!”

Such a treasure! And it was a gift!

With Yu Lin’s face, this operation, and the gimmick of an assault support, if he didn’t package him into a star player with an eight-figure annual salary in the future, he would eat shit upside down.

DEC, Boss Dai, what a bunch of idiots!!!!!

And that Zhou Huang, he was also an idiot. In the eyes of the extremely protective Duan Qiancheng, after he had tacitly accepted Yu Lin as one of his own, the fact that that idiot had made those comments was because he was envious of his new son’s good performance! Suppression! Jealousy!

How dare he lead his fans to cyberbully his new son? Just wait until he has a chance to deal with him.

Looking at his smiling face, and his belly full of bad water as he lay on the sofa, and the wrinkles that had formed on his rather handsome face, Fang Cheng shivered and commented, “Ugly face.”

Then he looked at the obedient and beautiful new team member on the sofa with curiosity, picked up the egg yolk mooncake that his mother had made, and enthusiastically handed him one. “Lin Lin, have one? By the way, do you eat savory mooncakes? I also have red bean and five-nut ones here.”

Then he stuffed a few colorful mooncakes over.

Yu Lin’s eyelashes lifted slightly, and he was stunned for a moment, then he slowly avoided the five-nut one. “I’ll have the savory one.”

Fang Cheng’s eyes lit up, and he was very happy, as if he had found a soulmate. “What a coincidence! I also love savory ones.”

“Savory mooncakes are just delicious, right!” He had a look of seeking approval. Yu Lin sat on the sofa and nodded lightly.

The two of them added up to no more than three years old.

The corner of Lin Qingchuan’s mouth twitched as he pushed up his glasses. Zhou Cheng laughed and fell on the sofa. He glanced at the silent, tense, and restrained Yu Lin, sighed, and gently pushed over a bottle of water.

“Eat some first. Auntie’s mooncakes are delicious.” Looking at the kid’s thin and restrained appearance, Zhou Cheng was instantly reminded of his younger brother who had just started university, and he felt a little sorry for him.

Facing his kindness, Yu Lin seemed to be a little at a loss. In the team, the two of them were in a competitive relationship.

In the past, at DEC, the training room had only been filled with coldness and ridicule.

Zhuang Ningyu sat on the sofa, dealing with the follow-up issues, and fending off the inquiries of the other team captains.

The surroundings were noisy. In the midst of the many voices, he took a moment to glance over. “Eat.”

He looked at Yu Lin and let out a low laugh. “Make yourself at home. Don’t be restrained.”

Yu Lin pressed his lips together and nodded lightly. “Okay.”

***

Dawn was different from other clubs. It was not very restricted by the boss, and basically everything was decided by Zhuang Ningyu.

Because of this, many people had guessed that the boss was just a figurehead.

There were many rumors outside, but it did not affect the operation of the base.

Yu Lin had stayed, and he was a team member in name, but in fact, he was a substitute, a backup for Zhou Cheng. The few of them all knew.

Zhou Cheng, who was planning to retire, had been unable to keep up in the competitions for the past six months, and he had made several mistakes.

After the results came out, his individual ranking in the alliance had dropped sharply. There were many opinions on the forum. Some were encouraging, but more were sighs.

A hero’s twilight. Some fans were disappointed, but more saw the crisis of Dawn.

“Under the Stars” was a competitive and cooperative game. Although Zhuang Ningyu’s command and operation were unparalleled.

Lin Qingchuan and Fang Cheng were also well-known experts. However, the snowfield, glacier, desert, lava, and mecha maps had too many variables. For players of the same level, Lin Qingchuan and Fang Cheng’s advantage was not in their overwhelming strength, but in their teamwork.

Without the stable Zhou Cheng to hold the line at all times, Dawn’s training results this year were not particularly outstanding.

A player had started a thread on the forum, betting that Dawn would stop at the top four this time, and that after Zhou Cheng’s retirement, and without a suitable support to cooperate with, the era of the two-time champions would no longer exist.

In the past six months, Zhou Cheng had been under a lot of pressure, and the team was also under a lot of pressure. He had been training desperately during this time, but he could not stop his declining results.

In the plot, when Duan Qiancheng had taken in the original host, he might not have been without this consideration.

It was just that the original host had experienced eight months of cyberbullying, and his mentality had long since collapsed. He could not bear this heavy responsibility, and both his mentality and his operation were a mess, so it had come to nothing.

Although Yu Lin was affected by his body, it was far from as serious as in the script. During this period of solo training, after he had familiarized himself with the environment of “Under the Stars,” his strength had been steadily improving.

He was a loner, and he would leave early and return late. He would usually stay in the training camp and would not go to the first-team training room much.

Until Zhou Cheng had come to get him.

The training camp was mostly full of youth training students. The first team had been busy with training matches recently, preparing for the upcoming league. Yu Lin would occasionally go up to review with them, but he would usually stay in the training camp, unknown.

The training camp was mostly full of youth training students, fifteen or sixteen years old, with simple minds, and strength was king.

Originally, because of Zhou Huang’s words, the endless curses on the internet, and DEC’s tragic results, the young men’s impression of Yu Lin was average, and they were even a little disdainful.

After the live stream, and they were all in the training camp, and they had personally experienced the joy of having an assault support, they had all become obedient. Although their relationship was not very good, they would now call Yu Lin when they were ordering milk tea.

Yu Lin was training with his mouse when the back of his chair was suddenly patted.

He turned his head, and the most talented youth training student, Ling Xiao, was standing behind his chair, his sharp chin slightly raised. “Someone’s looking for you.”

Yu Lin was stunned for a moment, and a glass of milk was stuffed into his hand. Ling Xiao pulled out the seat next to him and sat down, and his arrogant features were lightly raised, and he pointed with his hand. “Outside.”

Zhou Cheng had a smile on his face and was holding a bag of takeout in his hand. Seeing Yu Lin get up, he waved at him.

In Zhou Cheng’s opinion, the little substitute was probably scared by the curses on the internet. He hadn’t been online much these past few months. The last time he had clicked on it, he had only then discovered that the wind on the internet had changed, and the overwhelming curses were now directed at Dawn—Zhou Cheng.

He was already under a lot of psychological pressure, and he was probably afraid that he would think that he was here to snatch his position, so he had been scared away to the training camp that day.

The day he had run away, he had just eaten a piece of mooncake that Fang Cheng had brought, and had warmed Zhuang Ningyu’s chair.

He’s a good kid.

That day, Zhuang Ningyu had gone to the bathroom to wash his face. When he had come back, he had found that the person had run away, and he had casually asked what was going on.

He had sat down, his elbow casually resting on the chair, and the ends of his hair were still wet with water. After he had listened to Fang Cheng’s explanation, he hadn’t said anything, and had let out a light laugh. “It’s fine. Let him take it easy for now.”

His tone was even a little indulgent.

For more than a month, they would occasionally grab him for a meal and play a training match to get used to each other.

They were all very low-key. They had originally thought that there was still a lot of time, and they could take it slow, and there was no need to be too showy.

After all, he had just arrived. Although the few main players were quite optimistic about him, he had not yet achieved any results, and he could not convince the public.

Until this morning, in the alliance’s training match, he himself had made a major mistake. Even if Zhuang Ningyu had turned the tide and saved the day, it had still been a narrow and tragic victory.

The opponent was a first-tier team, but they were definitely not top-tier. They had almost won against Dawn, and the opponent was also stunned.

After it was over, the training room was quiet.

The decline of a professional player was inevitable, and everyone was not feeling good. Fang Cheng had laughed, trying to ease the atmosphere, and Lin Qingchuan had calmly taken the blame.

Zhuang Ningyu’s expression was unchanged, and he had only said to go back and review.

Everything was as usual.

Zhou Cheng had also smiled, had picked up his phone and had ordered takeout, and had used the excuse of getting takeout to get up and go downstairs.

Standing at the top of the stairs, he had opened the forum, and sure enough, the results from the morning had already caused an uproar. The forum was full of curses, saying that he was old but not dead, and that he should just get lost.

Dawn had been the champion when it had first debuted, and its fan base was extremely large, and its fighting power was amazing.

The training match organized by the alliance, unlike the matches between teams, was considered a warm-up for the league.

His state had made many fans smell something bad.

Zhou Cheng lowered his head and looked at his arm. He was twenty-nine, and he was actually still young. In the eyes of ordinary people, it was a time when he could still achieve great things.

But in the treacherous world of “Under the Stars,” he was already a little tired.

Was he willing? Of course not.

Was he resentful? Not really.

He had also started playing games at the age of seventeen. The dazzling years of his youth had passed in a flash for more than ten years. He had been number one, and he had been last. He had been worthless, and he had also reached the top.

Leaving here.

It was just a little regret.

“Brother Cheng, what’s wrong?” Yu Lin’s voice interrupted his memories.

“Hmm?” Zhou Cheng came back to his senses, let out a laugh, and looked at the little substitute with a placid expression and worried eyes. “Nothing.”

He held up the lunch box in his hand. “I’m calling you up for lunch.”

He then said, “The manager said he’s arranged your position. It’s next to the captain. When you come over, I’ll arrange a keyboard for you?”

***

Zhou Cheng took Yu Lin upstairs. The others turned their heads and saw, and they were a little surprised, and then they understood.

He was just a substitute, and he was not a difficult person to get along with. The few of them were as steady as old dogs and directly greeted him.

Fang Cheng directly rushed over. “What delicious food did Mama Zhou order today?” He craned his neck to look and gave a thumbs-up. “How did you know I wanted to eat crab roe buns today!”

Lin Qingchuan let out a sneer, and in Fang Cheng’s flailing, he pushed up his glasses. “I don’t know who was talking about it all night.”

Yu Lin had originally been standing by Zhou Cheng’s side. When Fang Cheng had rushed over, for some reason, he had moved to avoid him, and so he had gotten further and further away from the noisy crowd.

His fingertips were warm and cool. He was stunned for a moment, and when he lowered his head, he found that he had touched Zhuang Ningyu’s phone screen.

On the phone screen was a chat box. The other party had sent a full screen of words, which was painful to look at. Zhuang Ningyu had only replied with a little.

A professional player’s five senses were sharp. Noticing the gaze in front of him, he put away his phone and looked over, his eyes dark, and his eyebrows were lightly raised. “What’s wrong?”

“Nothing.” Yu Lin quickly retracted his gaze, turned his head slightly, and his jaw was slightly tensed, as cautious as ever.

“Are you afraid of me?” Zhuang Ningyu raised his eyebrows.

Fang Cheng and Lin Qingchuan had moved to the table to get their food, and it had become quiet here.

“What?” Yu Lin was stunned for a moment, and after he had reacted to what Zhuang Ningyu had said, his body stiffened uncontrollably.

After a long while, the tips of his ears flushed red.

“I… captain…” he stuttered, and with his lips pressed together, he forced himself to say, “No, I’m not afraid.”

“Not afraid?” Zhuang Ningyu raised his eyebrows. “Then you can call me what Fang Cheng calls me.”

Fang Cheng was lively and cute, and he called Zhuang Ningyu “Zhuang Gou,” and also “Brother Zhuang.”

Yu Lin was struggling to choose between “Zhuang Gou” and “Brother Zhuang.”

After a long while, he pressed his lips together and called out, “Bro.”

The young man’s features were light, and his figure was thin. His slender fingers were hanging by his side. He looked cold, but his neck and ears were all red.

Zhuang Ningyu had gone too far with his teasing. Seeing his big reaction, he let out a laugh, got up and ruffled his hair, and comforted him in a low voice, “En, let’s eat. I’ll take you to play a match in the afternoon.”

There were still a few training matches in the afternoon. Zhou Cheng had used the excuse of his hands shaking and had brought Yu Lin up, and his intention was obvious.

Zhuang Ningyu had a fairy-like face, cold and ethereal. A fan had once joked that he was the Little Dragon Girl of the esports circle.

He usually looked like he was not interested in anything, but he was very serious when he was tricking a child.

Lin Qingchuan had good hearing. In his busy schedule, he had turned his head with his lunch box, and then he had slowly turned back.

He had almost thought he had seen some old dog who had become a spirit.

After eating, Zhou Cheng went back for a nap. Fang Cheng went to the training camp to play, and Zhuang Ningyu was called out by Duan Qiancheng to discuss something.

Only Lin Qingchuan and Yu Lin were left in the room.

Yu Lin sat in the new position that had been arranged for him, and was playing a match with his lips pressed together. He had heard that he had also been in the training camp for more than ten hours a day, as if he were not tired.

Lin Qingchuan looked at him and wanted to speak, but he noticed the large team uniform on him.

A week had passed, and Yu Lin was still wearing the team uniform that was a little large for him.

Lin Qingchuan was holding a water cup, and after thinking for a moment, he casually mentioned, “Your team uniform hasn’t been made yet? The captain’s is too big for you. I have a new one. Shall I get one for you?”

Yu Lin was holding the mouse, and he was stunned for a moment. He pressed his lips together, and after a few seconds, he shook his head. “Thank you. No need.”

The tips of his ears were red.

Lin Qingchuan looked at him, was stunned for a moment, and after he had reacted, he couldn’t help but laugh and cry.

Looking at him like this, and then at Zhuang Gou, who had a calm and ethereal look on his face all day, but had been frequently coming down to the mortal world these past few days.

These two, he really didn’t know who was holding who back.
