Chapter 85 – Champion
Listening to Hua Xin, he said that people in familiar places may be less nervous and more easily get into a state. Cheng Che clung to Lin Xingling and asked him to take him back to his house.
Taking a bath, cleaning up.
When Cheng Che came out, Lin Xingling was sitting at the table wearing glasses, reading a college textbook – civil engineering major, which was difficult to understand, and Cheng Che didn’t want to understand it either.
He walked over confidently and leaned on his shoulder, asking, “Are you going to study this book tonight?”
The words were cleverly spoken, with a double entendre.
Lin Xingling stood up, took off his glasses and put them on the desk. He embraced Cheng Che’s waist with one hand and lifted his chin with the other, then directly kissed his soft lips.
Desire, a strong desire…
“Knock, knock, knock…“
Just as the fire was about to ignite, it was interrupted by a knock on the door.
Lin Xingrong asked, “Brother, are you asleep? I bought some midnight snacks. Do you want to eat them? They’re crayfish.”
Lin Xingling:…
My good sister, I’ve never seen you share midnight snacks with me before.
Yes, Lin Xingrong came for Cheng Che.
When she was having dinner, she said, “There’s nothing better than dumplings, and it’s fun, hehe~”
Nothing is more fun than a sister-in-law.
Cheng Che is really fun. When he doesn’t speak, he’s like a little dumpling, and he often comes up with witty remarks when he does speak.
He has both good looks and an interesting soul.
Crayfish!
Cheng Che pushed him away and swallowed his saliva. “I… I want to eat…”
“Can’t you be more mature?” Lin Xingling sighed.
…
In the end, they followed Xiaorong to eat crayfish, returned to the room, Cheng Che pursed his lips and asked, “Do you still want… burp… um, my throat is so spicy…”
Spicy food.
Lin Xingling poured him a glass of Sprite to soothe his throat.
“Is it still spicy?”
“I want a kiss… then, it won’t be spicy anymore.”
Cheng Che held onto Lin Xingling’s neck and pecked his lips like a little chick pecking at rice.
They wanted to finish what they hadn’t done.
“Knock, knock, knock…“
“Da Ling, come here and see what’s wrong with this camera.”
It was Lin Haiqing.
Lin Xingling:…
He’s really my biological father.
After helping his father fix the camera, Cheng Che was already tired, sitting on the edge of the bed and yawning.
“Che’er, let me hold you.”
This time, there was no kissing. Lin Xingling pressed him onto the bed directly, undressing for sleep.
Intimate and warm, the room was filled with warmth.
Lin Xingling patiently expanded him and lightly pressed on his sensitive gland, and Cheng Che almost immediately responded with pleasure.
“Mmm…”
“Shh, keep it down.”
Someone kindly reminded them, “Soundproofing isn’t that effective, what needs to be heard will still…”
As expected, he suddenly became nervous, clutching his fingers tightly, squeezing and sucking eagerly.
“More… more… Ah… make it hurt more…”
…
Even just foreplay almost made Cheng Che lose control.
If Lin Xingling hadn’t noticed and squeezed him softly, he would probably have no strength left by now.
The child whimpered and said he was uncomfortable.
“Be good, don’t move, shall I tie you up first?”
“No… um… I don’t want that…”
…
Lin Xingling was familiar with the process, and Cheng Che savored the pleasure.
Indeed, in a familiar place, Cheng Che was much more relaxed than when he was at the training base, although he still blushed in front of Lin Xingling.
“Is it… okay now?”
Half-pushing, half-accepting, the knocking sound came again.
It was Lin Xingling’s mother.
“Da Ling, fetch some water for the room. The weather is too dry. Get a basin of water to humidify the air.”
Lin Xingling tried his best to answer her with a hoarse voice.
His mother was worried, “Should I go and get it for you?”
“No need.”
“Okay.” His mother left disappointed.
Next, Lin Xingling kissed his mouth and said, “Che’er, you should think it through, after tonight…”
“Knock, knock, knock…“
Lin Xingrong: “Brother, Mom has brought some water for you and asked me to put it at the door. Remember to bring it in.”
“I got it.”
Lin Xingling answered absentmindedly and continued looking at Cheng Che.
Cheng Che’s face had a faint blush as he obediently wrapped his legs around Lin Xingling’s waist and remained silent.
This was his answer.
He had thought it through, so this was how it would be.
At a critical moment, the knocking sound resounded once again.
Lin Xingling:…
Lin Xingling tried to get into the mood and ignored them.
However…
“Da Ling~”
“Brother!”
“My good son!”
When they had nothing to do, they really had nothing to do, but once there was something to be done, chaos broke loose in the house.
In the end, Lin Xingling couldn’t take it anymore, so he dressed Cheng Che and took him to the bathroom for a bath.
Of course, it was only after the child was comfortable that peace was restored.
After drying his hair and wrapping him up in the blankets, Lin Xingling’s anger had dissipated.
“Go to sleep. Tomorrow we have a training match, and the day after tomorrow is the finals.”
“Oh…”
The afternoon training match was scheduled with Team TG. Although there were rumors online about the two teams not getting along, it was just like that.
There was no animosity, just a friendly atmosphere.
After all, they were all insiders in the industry.
Best of 7, and the score was 4:3.
In the end, DCT emerged as the winner.
After the match, Liang Feng analyzed it with them.
After it was over, he called Lin Xingling aside and said, “I have a feeling… that BP from TG wasn’t from him.”
“You’re overthinking.”
Lin Xingling patted his shoulder and comforted him, “Even if it wasn’t, what does it prove… maybe he took leave because he wasn’t feeling well.”
“That’s also possible…”
…
After a good night’s sleep, they woke up to welcome the finals.
Lin Xingling looked puzzled as Cheng Che dressed and asked, “Why aren’t you wearing long johns?”
“The venue has heating, it’s fine.”
Young people don’t understand the severity until their legs start to ache later on, and then they regret it.
Lin Xingling rummaged through the drawers and found a warm pair of long johns.
“Quickly put them on, or your legs will freeze.”
I didn’t spend five million to have you fall ill…
“Can’t you coddle me a bit? Is it really that bad?”
“…”
Lin Xingling remained silent.
After a while, he took out a pair of thick socks from the drawer, held Cheng Che’s ankle, and half-forcedly put them on for him.
After tonight’s match, tomorrow is the Winter Solstice. It’s such a cold day, so they need to wear more and wear thicker.
Cheng Che allowed him to fuss over him as they set off for the main venue at four in the afternoon.
Shanghai Jian’an Sports Center, the place where dreams began.
Whether it’s in this lifetime or the previous one.
On the way, Cheng Che half-closed his eyes and had a dream.
He dreamt about the various details of him falling down the stairs, as he imagined, and what followed… a simple hospital room with a snow-white ceiling, pale blue bedsheets, an intravenous drip stand, and a heart rate monitor by the side.
…And there was that man on the hospital bed, wearing an oxygen mask and looking not too well.
Startled, he woke up feeling somewhat anxious.
…
After getting off the car, the temperature outside was very cold. Cheng Che paid attention to Lin Xingling, who had a pale face and stood shivering on the side.
They had talked about it before; he had always been sensitive to the cold and had a difficult time in winter.
“Captain.”
As soon as he heard a voice, before Lin Xingling could respond, Cheng Che suddenly covered his face with his two soft, warm hands.
“Hmm?”
Rubbing and kneading, they were really soft and nice to hold.
He warmed up Lin Xingling’s icy face, and a smile of happiness appeared on Cheng Che’s face.
Wu You chuckled and teased, “Why are you two showing affection in public like this?”
“I’m hap-happy to warm him up. What’s it… what’s it to you, hmph.”
Phantom, as usual, didn’t say a word.
“…Ah.”
Liu Ying withdrew the hand that was about to take out a hand warmer from his pocket, lost in thought.
“Let’s go, it’s time to enter.”
Liang Feng seemed a bit listless.
…
Makeup, and then waiting for the opening ceremony to end before the players from both sides entered the stage.
Lin Xingling carried the team flag, walking at the back.
SYG’s flag bearer was the support player, Cheng Zhi.
This final match seemed to lack excitement.
Mainly because the SYG team was in chaos before the start, with their marksman, Charity, unable to play due to illness, and their mid-laner, Zhi Shi, missing.
Two substitutes from the second team were sent in.
The result was self-evident, despite SYG’s desperate resistance, they still couldn’t defeat DCT.
They were taken down with a score of 4:1.
After winning the match, there was no hint of joy on Liang Feng and the others’ faces.
On the one hand, their opponents were in a weakened state, making the team’s victory feel dishonorable and disgusting.
Fans in the competitive gaming community were discussing it fervently, and there were even conspiracy theories claiming that DCT had bought the championship.
They must be pretending to be poor.
“Let’s congratulate the DCT team for winning the S13 championship in their first appearance on the KPL stage!”
Commentator Jiang Li smiled and said, “Please have the DCT team come up here to receive the championship trophy and an IOU.”
Everyone was confused.
Jiang Li explained, “Because they still owe the membership fee… that’s why.”
This move cleared the suspicion of DCT buying the championship.
After all, if they didn’t even have the money to pay the membership fee, how could they come up with 10 million?
Reluctantly, Cheng Che and the others went up to receive that IOU.
Commentator A Hua couldn’t help but laugh, “Please have the coach and players of the DCT team come up here to raise the cup.”
You guys are a group of grown men and so adorable~
Cheng Che’s expression be like: [Are you kidding me?]
Lin Xingling’s expression: [Strange jokes are increasing.]
Wu You: [Empty-headed]
Liu Ying: [Just smile it off.]
Phantom: [Hehe, well said.]
Liang Feng: [We don’t need this trophy… but we still want the prize money in our account.]
…
This might be the most low-pressure award ceremony in the history of KPL.
Not a single person from the championship team is smiling; they all look like they have something on their minds.
Even when they step down from the stage, there is no celebration. They split into two groups: Cheng Che follows Lin Xingling and Liang Feng to visit Charity, while Wu You, Liu Ying, and Phantom help in the search for Zhi Shi.
…
Chen Enci’s illness belongs to a serious arrhythmia
It was the same in the previous life, during the autumn season finals: SYG vs. TG. SYG’s Charity had to withdraw due to illness and didn’t return until the following spring season.
It’s the same in this life.
His mindset is good, and he’s comforting Cheng Che.
“I’m really fine, the surgery was successful. I just need to rest more.”
Cheng Che nods and says, “Didn’t we tell you to take care of yourself…”
“Sorry…”
…
Life is like this. There will be happiness and regrets. We are alone in our endeavors, only able to live according to our own desires and efforts.
We can also find that person to support each other…
December 21, 2018.
DCT team wins the KPL Autumn season championship.
