At the JSY Club base, a team of official players and a team of substitutes are training in the same e-sports room. The daily basic training has ended, and now it's time for 5vs5 training.
A team of official players and substitutes, with their seating order shuffled, is currently battling it out in the canyon. Zhou Lin and Zheng Fengyue are observing their actions and stats from the sidelines, their expressions revealing nothing.
Shen Zeyu's hand was not feeling well today, so he was not allowed to practice with his teammates. Instead, he sat on the sidelines watching the team train while the acupuncturist came over to give him acupuncture and a hand massage to relieve his pain.
"Brother Lin, it's almost dinnertime, why hasn't the captain arrived yet? Are you sure he said he'd bring his kid along?"
After Shen Zeyu finished his physical therapy, he finally felt like he had come back to life. He glanced at the situation on the big screen. Both sides had pushed down to the high ground tower, and the sparring match was about to end. He couldn't help but look at Zhou Lin and ask.
"They should be here soon. You know very well that taking a child out always requires a lot of preparation. Mainly, Area will be here for training soon, and the child might be scared being alone in an unfamiliar dormitory."
As soon as Zhou Lin finished speaking, Zheng Fengyue couldn't help but chime in. After all, he was a father of three and knew all too well about taking care of children.
"Yes, we definitely need to bring some toys that the kids like, and we also need to bring A Beibei we cuddle with when we sleep, otherwise we definitely won't be able to get her to sleep in an unfamiliar place."
Zheng Fengyue a very experienced father. Shen Zeyu couldn't help but lean closer to him, wanting to learn from his experience, just in case he has kids someday.
"Is that so? Coach, could you tell me more about it? I want to learn from your experience. Besides these, are there any other things to keep in mind when taking care of a child? I need to write them down and study them repeatedly so I can be a responsible father in the future."
"Hey, you've come to the right person! Let me tell you, raising children is quite an art..."
So Zheng Fengyue and Shen Zeyu started discussing parenting tips. Zhou Lin watched them get more and more excited as they talked, and couldn't help but twitch his lips in admiration.
"Hey, you two, don't get too cocky. We're in the training room right now, and the security cameras are watching. Don't blame me if you get fined later."
As soon as Zhou Lin finished speaking, Zheng Fengyue and Shen Zeyu separated instantly. They even looked up at him, grinned, and then made a zipping gesture near their mouths.
Zhou Lin: "..."
With these two clowns in the training room, there's no need to worry about feeling stifled. They're laughing all day long, so there's no time to feel depressed or irritable.
Zhou Lin didn't even bother looking at the two of them anymore. He turned to look at the screen and saw that the blue team, led by Jian Songchuan, had already pushed down the red team's crystal. He paused for a moment, then nodded with satisfaction, "Their training will be over soon."
Zheng Fengyue and Shen Zeyu had already seen it and nodded. Then, the blue team won, and the two people sitting in the combat positions stood up and walked over.
"Everyone did a pretty good job today. Take a 15-minute break. After that, we'll do a practice match review. Those of you who made mistakes during practice, be prepared to get a scolding."
Zheng Fengyue stood up and said something that made everyone both happy and worried. They groaned in pain, but their bodies were already very familiar with the situation, so they walked out of the e-sports room to go to the toilet. Since things had come to this point, it was more important to take care of their urgent needs.
"It's almost dinner time, why isn't Area here yet?"
Zhou Lin stood up from the sofa, glanced at his wristwatch. It had been almost two hours since he made the call; he should have crawled over there by now, even if he had to crawl from Song Yanqing's house.
"It's been almost two hours, is that brat not coming? No, I have to call him to confirm, or I'll go and catch him myself."
Zhou Lin, still very worried, was about to take out his phone to make another call when he heard a commotion in the hallway. Someone shouted, "Is that the captain's car? He's finally back!"
Zhou Lin paused, then turned to look at Zheng Fengyue and Shen Zeyu. The two had already run off sometime earlier, leaving him with only their carefree backs, leaving him alone in the room, listening to the birdsong overhead...
"You ungrateful bastards! Didn't you even call me? I've been so kind to you all this time!"
Zhou Lin clamored and we went out together, arriving at the best viewing platform in the corridor where the crowd was gathered. Through the enclosed floor-to-ceiling glass windows, we looked in the direction they were chattering about.
A low-key yet luxurious black sedan drove towards them from not far from the club. The logo on that car—wasn't that the one Song Yanqing had custom-made?
This kid rarely drives this car to the base. He's suddenly acting all flashy today, probably because he's protecting the neighbor's kid he's raised for so long.
This child must have a very special status to need to be brought here under such tight security in a bulletproof vehicle that blocks outside view.
Not only Zhou Lin was puzzled, but everyone who knew Song Yanqing was also puzzled. They all knew the origin of this unique " Shield Soldier " vehicle. It was on a rainy night when Song Yanqing first led JSY to win the world championship.
They were ambushed on their way back. Such a brutal arms battle could occur even within their supposedly safe borders; tires blew out, windows shattered...
The people in the car were also injured... That night was the biggest nightmare of their careers. Just when they thought they were going to die in the rainy night, Song Yanqing's bodyguards rushed out, repelled the enemy, and they survived.
From that day on, the JSY Club moved here and was equipped with numerous bodyguards patrolling the area. Song Yanqing also had this bulletproof car specially made for this purpose.
They rode in this car in many subsequent races, but such a brutal attack only happened once, and it never happened again.
It's highly likely that Song Yanqing's family intervened. Those who were secretly using underhanded tactics became afraid and dared not cause trouble openly anymore. Their clandestine schemes were also exposed, leaving them very frustrated. After that, crises rarely occurred.
Song Yanqing's " Shield Soldier " was carefully maintained in the underground garage and hadn't been driven out since. But now, not only did he drive the " Shield Soldier " out, but it seems he even took it to a car wash for a wash?
The group had been through that rainy night together, and they couldn't help but exchange glances, all wondering about the identity of the child Song Yanqing had brought.
It was only after that rainy night that Shen Zeyu understood everything, overcame all obstacles, and firmly stayed with his current fiancée. As it turns out, his decision to face the difficulties head-on was very clear.
Now, his fiancée's family is very satisfied with him every time they see him. If it weren't for his busy work schedule, they would have already arranged a wedding for the two of them.
But it's not too late now. After he wins the championship again this year, he will announce his retirement and then happily walk down the aisle with his sweetheart.
Of course, it's too early to talk about these things now, so he put that aside for the moment. At this moment, his attention was entirely focused on the " Shield Soldier " vehicle that had driven in, and he couldn't help but sigh.
"Why did the captain bring it here? I'm a little curious about the identity of the child he brought. Could that child be the orphan of some big shot?"
"Because he was being hunted, he had to flee here, and then the captain rescued him. He couldn't reveal his true identity to the outside world, so he said he was the neighbor's kid..."
Everyone couldn't help but look at him suspiciously, asking, "Have you been reading too many mystery novels?"
Shen Zeyu: "..."
