Ji Zhiyao’s jaw dropped and he instantly forgot that he was still avoiding Mo Huaifeng as he reached out to grab his arm. “Captain, look, someone here asked if you turned on post notifications for me!”
Mo Huaifeng leaned in for a closer look and said nonchalantly, “Pretty clever.” With that, he pulled out his phone, preparing to give this comment a like.
Ji Zhiyao held him down, saying solemnly, “Captain, if you admit it, I feel that I will be skinned alive by your fans the moment I step outside.”
Mo Huaifeng hummed, putting down his restless finger.
Heng from not far out reminded. “… Um, brothers, I’m livestreaming, did you guys forget.”
Damn it, who could save him.
Only Mo Huaifeng shrugged with an innocent expression, using his expression to make known that “this has nothing to do with me, it’s all your fault for speaking too loudly”, angering Ji Zhiyao so much so that he suddenly felt utterly unfamiliar with his surroundings.
Heng continued to rub it in. “It seems that Captain did not set us as his close friends. I once believed for a long time that he did not have the Weibo app on his phone.”
Mo Huaifeng did not speak, smile lines appearing by the corner of his eyes.
“All of you are from one battleteam, why are you guys being treated differently LOL”, Heng read out loud and explained in all seriousness, “Because NoHomo is Captain’s only biological son, we are all adopted.”
His face was almost as black as the bottom of the pot, emitting an air of “I can’t live any longer” all over.
Noticing that, Mo Huaifeng interrupted, “Heng, turn it off when it’s about time, prepare for training.”
Heng obeyed, smoothly and quickly turning off his livestream. Before he left he did not forget to answer the questions in the comments. “It’s definitely not because our Captain feels guilty!”
Mo Huaifeng looked at him.
K held onto Heng who could not control himself. “Heng, I strongly advise you lock your doors and windows properly when you sleep tonight, otherwise you’ll easily be killed by Captain and NoHomo.”
“I feel very aggrieved. Will they really?”
Ji Zhiyao laughed coldly. “Whether you will be killed or not, do you really have no idea deep down?”
Heng did not dare to say another word.
Mo Huaifeng walked right at the end, with a hint of a smile in his eyes, he reached out and pinched Ji Zhiyao’s arm. Ji Zhiyao met his eyes and his anger instantly dissipated.
Everyone returned to the training room and continued training with ranked matches.
Xiao and Mo Huaifeng partnered up, in the course of consciously practicing the jungler ADC team up. Ji Zhiyao played several ranked matches alone, then entered their match to spectate.
Xiao and Mo Huaifeng’s awareness to cooperate were very strong. At the 26th minute, Xiao was jungling. Mo Huaifeng signaled and Xiao immediately jumped out, dodging the ability attacks from their opponent hidden in the bush and worked with Mo Huaifeng to take a kill from under the opponent’s defense turret. At the 34th minute, seeing that Xiao’s abilities have leveled to a level high enough, Mo Huaifeng directly ambushed near the dragon’s cave, helping Xiao who was rushing over to take the big dragon to finish off the hidden opponents beforehand.
In comparison, his teamwork with Mo Huaifeng was slightly poorer and needed to be worked on more.
After watching a match played by Xiao and Mo Huaifeng, Ji Zhiyao noted down some things as if deep in thought, then with his own computer, continued to play ranked matches.
Training went on from 8PM to past 11PM, the youths that ate very little for lunch were already starving. The food that was packed for Ji Zhiyao, he did not even manage to have a bowl for himself, everything was divided up cleanly. Mo Huaifeng then ordered five pizzas, when they were delivered, they were all similarly cleaned out.
Watching videos till past 1AM, Ji Zhiyao was extremely sleepy, yawning as he headed upstairs, preparing to go to bed.
Upon seeing that Mo Huaifeng switched off his computer, Nuo who was beside him asked, “Captain, not pulling an all nighter today?”
“Mm. Can’t hang on.”
Nuo nodded. “Alright, sleep earlier then. I’ll probably be heading up later, I hope I don’t wake you.”
“It’s fine.” With that, Mo Huaifeng went up the staircase.
He stood before the railing and looked downstairs, the remaining three people in the training room all weren’t paying attention to this direction. Hence he took several steps forward and knocked lightly on Ji Zhiyao’s door.
A moment later, the door opened. Ji Zhiyao stood before him with two large dark circles, so sleepy that his eyes were straight lines. Seeing that it was Mo Huaifeng, his eyes widened right away, asking, “Captain?”
“Let me in.”
“Okay okay.” Ji Zhiyao made space to allow Mo Huaifeng to enter the room. Then he asked, “Why did you come over suddenly?”
Mo Huaifeng leaned lazily by the desk, squinting at him, a small trace of a smile in his eyes. “Let’s go catch a movie tomorrow? There’s a newly released film, I’ve been wanting to watch it for a long time.”
“No objections, but don’t we have training tomorrow? We can’t sneak out secretly,” Ji Zhiyao questioned. As the Captain, Mo Huaifeng had always lead by example, never going against the training rules, why would he suddenly come up with such an idea.
“It’s not considered training time in the morning. There’s a showing at 9AM plus tomorrow, we can go earlier and come back after watching, the time would be just right.”
Ji Zhiyao nodded, so sleepy that he couldn’t help but started yawning again. “Sure, just book the tickets first for whatever you want to watch. I’ll be sure to set an alarm and wake up early tomorrow.”
Mo Huaifeng seeing Ji Zhiyao like this, could not hold back and reached, rubbing his utterly messy short hair into an even messier pile, then left.
Ji Zhiyao set his alarm, with no energy to consider what day tomorrow was and not deliberating about what Mo Huaifeng meant by suddenly asking him out to watch a movie, directly sprawled widely on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.
…
8:30 AM the next morning, Ji Zhiyao was woken up by the alarm clock and almost couldn’t get out of bed.
Remembering his date with Mo Huaifeng, he barely managed to crawl out of bed, change into a fresh set of clothes and finish washing up before he was completely awake.
Ji Zhiyao went downstairs. Because it was early, it was completely silent at the base.
Mo Huaifeng sat on the sofa in the living room, two portions of breakfast were placed on the table. Hearing the sounds of someone coming down, he turned back and said, “I was about to go up to wake you.”
Ji Zhiyao yawned, walked to the sofa, sat down, picked up a steamed bun and took a few bites, then said inarticulately, “Don’t worry, we have a date, I didn’t forget.”
Traces of a smile swelled up in Mo Huaifeng’s eyes as he followed in eating his breakfast too.
After breakfast, Mo Huaifeng drove and both of them headed to a shopping center nearby. The cinema was on the fourth level, they took the lift up.
The time that they arrived was very coincidental, they’d just collected their tickets and the movie that they had booked tickets for happened to just begin checking tickets.
Two of them entered the theater one after the other, Ji Zhiyao found his seat according to the seat number on the movie ticket, then sat down. Mo Huaifeng sat down beside him.
Several segments of advertisements went past and the movie officially began.
Ji Zhiyao originally simply intended on accompanying Mo Huaifeng, which was his sole reason for being seated there. He did not expect that after watching for ten over minutes, he was completely engaged by the movie plot, not even in the mood to quietly whisper with Mo Huaifeng, both eyes fixed on the screen.
Nearing the end of the movie, Mo Huaifeng leaned close and said in a low voice, “I’m going out for a while.”
Ji Zhiyao thought that he wanted to go to the washroom and made a sign with his hand, indicating that he got it.
More ten over minutes past, Ji Zhiyao became restless.
Just going to the washroom, why was he taking so long?
He pulled out his phone, preparing to send a text to ask. However the light from his phone’s screen was a little bright, he heard a blaming “ah” from the stranger beside him, hence he apologized softly and groped his way in the dark out of the cinema.
Once he stepped out of the doors of the theater, Ji Zhiyao walked past the corner and found Mo Huaifeng seated on a two seater at the rest lounge not far out with his head bowed, looking at his phone.
Ji Zhiyao instinctively brought out his phone that was on silent mode and saw a text.
[DB.MHF: Come out for a moment.]
Ji Zhiyao walked towards Mo Huaifeng and sat opposite him.
Mo Huaifeng saw him upon lifting in head and handed a box over, saying rather unnaturally, “Happy birthday.”
Ji Zhiyao was completely dumbfounded.
What was this that his Captain was doing?
Mo Huaifeng coughed, a speck of resignation flashing across his eyes. “I originally intended to give it to you during the movie, as a surprise. You were too engrossed in the movie, you ignored me throughout the several times I called you.”
Seems like there was such a thing.
Ji Zhiyao looked up, because of his smile, the eye bags beneath his eyes curved slightly. “Thanks Captain. But how did you know that it’s my birthday today?”
“I saw your identity card.”
“Oh.”
He was in the midst of recalling when exactly his identity card had been seen by Captain when Mo Huaifeng pushed the little box before him again, interrupting his train of thoughts. “I prepared a gift for you, see if you like it or not.”
“Okay.” Ji Zhiyao opened the box.
Inside the box was a black wristband, made of soft PU material. On it was the first edition anniversary symbol of Heroes, shaped like a cloud, very exquisite but not girly at all. He had never seen this model before, it was most probably custom made.
Ji Zhiyao was rather fond of it and took the bracelet out, looking at it all around as he could barely tear himself away from it. Turning it around several times, he realized that on the inner surface closer to the wrist, a line of alphabets were carved, “Fi.Yao”.
Ji Zhiyao was instantly shocked and looked with an inconceivable look at Mo Huaifeng. Mo Huaifeng’s expression was peaceful. “Yes, it’s a pair.”
“Out of consideration of your request, I won’t wear mine yet. When the international league ends, I’ll then let it see the light of day once again.”
Ji Zhiyao also coughed once, concealing his ears that were slightly red. He put the wristband onto his left arm as if nothing had happened. “Very nice. Thanks Captain.”
It was also Mo Huaifeng’s first time giving someone a gift. But by the looks of it Ji Zhiyao was very satisfied, his restless heart was finally at ease, he secretly gloated for a while and decided that he must give Ji Qingge a gift the next time he saw her.
After all he had asked for her opinion beforehand and thus did not adopt those outdated tricks of “hiding a ring in a cake”, “999 rose to capture your lover’s heart” on Tieba, but openly gifted a wristband.
Only he could not wear it temporarily, it was slightly regretful.
The movie ended, the gift had been presented too. Close to noon, both of them left the shopping center and prepared to return to the base for lunch.
Entering the villa, Ji Zhiyao turned into the training room and found that K, Xiao and Heng were already up. Seeing him walk in and Mo Huaifeng behind him, the three of them almost dropped their jaws from shock. Xiao asked, “Son, what did you do with Captain after waking up so early?”
Ji Zhiyao pretentious waved his left hand, K did not understand him. “What? Your hand hurt and Captain brought you to the hospital?”
“… You ass.”
“Then why did you swing your arm? Cramping?”
Heng chimed in. “Stop swinging stop swinging, I saw it. When both of you woke up early in the morning with your brains muddled, you found each other especially pleasing to the eyes so both of you privately pledge to marry each other then Captain went out and bought you a dog collar?”
Xiao said, “Biological son becoming a child bride, this is comparable to the horror story of the year.”
He was bugged, even feeling tempted to hit someone.
Mo Huaifeng came to his rescue. “It’s NoHomo’s birthday today.”
K wished, “Hey, happy birthday.”
Heng followed, “Congratulations to NoHomo on walking further on the road of growth.”
Xiao was the last. “Son, daddy is very gratified.”
“Don’t just give your blessings verbally, where are your gifts?”
He laughed coldly, reaching his hand out before their eyes and shook it in a circle.
The three of them were also incredible, all of them pretended to be selectively blind, pretending that they hadn’t seen anything at all.
Ji Zhiyao then pulled back his arm, sitting in his chair and launching the Heroes client, preparing to play a ranked match before having lunch.
Mo Huaifeng saw and called him. “Invite me for a match together. We’ll practice the jungler ADC team up.”
“Okay.”
Both of them used their main accounts, because their ranks were higher, they waited quite a while before they were matched up.
There was a familiar username opposite, not a jungler, Tall Boots’ Captain, and also the team’s mid-laner, Xiaoye, “Ye-god”.
Ji Zhiyao rubbed his palms. “Captain, I don’t want to do the jungler ADC team up with you, I want to go to the middle lane to play with Ye-god.”
Mo Huaifeng tugged at the corner of his lips, “Try.”
He looked towards the screen and instantly had a not-so pleasant feeling.
[ [ALL] Gtx.Ye: Fi-god, I managed to catch you. Don’t tell me you’ve forgotten what you’ve told me during Mix’s performance tournament tour. There is no time like the present, let’s do it today.]
Xiaoye sent this message three whole times, Mo Huaifeng felt that the vein at the corner of his forehead hurt.
[ [ALL] Gtx.Ye: Oh wow, is it Mix’s jungler reserve opposite? Quickly come take a look at your Captain! Not admitting everything that he has promised, there’s simply no law anymore.]
Ji Zhiyao was so shocked that his double chin appeared as he looked towards Mo Huaifeng with a complicated gaze. “Captain, what did you promise him?”
Mo Huaifeng gritted his teeth.
Did they want him to reveal that, the previous time, because he saw Ji Zhiyao’s naked butt at the hotel, he made a dumb mistake in his game and ended up promising to carry Xiaoye up the ranks in order to conceal this incident?
Did he not want his pride!
[ [ALL] Mix.Fi: Got it. Let’s play together later, three in a team to carry you.]
[ [ALL] Gtx.Ye: Love you xoxo.]
[ [ALL] Gtx.Ye: Are we playing as three with the little jungler? Let me examine his skills in this match.]
[ [ALL] Mix.Fi: Speak properly.]
[ [ALL] Gtx.Ye: OK, come on.]
This match went on for forty minutes, because the idiot at his top lane kept feeding, so much that all three defense turrets were pushed down. Ji Zhiyao couldn’t even save him after abandoning his practice of the jungler ADC team up and running to the top lane, and even gifted four to five kills with him.
Ji Zhiyao was so infuriated that his throat was smoking, as he continued criticizing after drinking a mouthful of water, “… So how did such an idiot who would feel unbearably itchy all over without feeding for a minute get to Challenger rank? Carried all the way? Was he a koi fish in his previous life?”
Mo Huaifeng also frowned, saying concisely, “Join the room first, play as three with Xiaoye, we’ll definitely win the next match.”
Hence Ji Zhiyao entered another match.
This time he picked an assassin that was relatively more balanced in all aspects, preparing to specially work with Xiaoye and Mo Huaifeng, being carried all the way to the peak of his life.
