In the car, Yu Sui was holding Puppy’s phone.

On Puppy’s phone, Shi Luo was still saved as “Luo”.

Shi Luo’s first registered ID with the league.

Shi Luo didn’t send a reply. Yu Sui returned the phone to Puppy, closed his eyes and continued to sleep.

“Yu Sui…” Puppy looked at his mobile phone and hesitated. “Shi Luo himself knows that when it’s announced later that he’s coming to our team, the forums are going to explode. You …”

With his eyes still closed, Yu Sui smiled, “What do I do so the forums don’t explode?”

Puppy was helpless. He continued, “Is this necessary? This game is overflowing with strikers. There are lots of good players out there, even if they’re not as good as he is. If we find one who’s willing to cooperate with Chen Huo, that’s also a suitable choice for us. When Shi Luo comes over later on, he’s sure to get into a lot of fights with Chen Huo. But even putting that aside, there’s still going to be a lot of trouble for sure. I’m even starting to suspect some of Shi Luo’s fans might come to our base and poison us. Are you sure you want to invite this trouble…”

Puppy had come back late and didn’t know about the gamble that occurred at the club that night. Yu Sui also didn’t want to mention it again. He only said, “There’s no trouble. And it’s not like I’m baselessly looking to pick a quarrel. If he didn’t want to come back, I wouldn’t be bothering him again.”

Puppy shrugged, “I don’t understand you two … what’s so bad about being fated rivals? Tigers on different mountains?  You two had such a terrible falling out but you still haven’t learned your lesson. I’m not trying to rake up old scores here. Back then, you really shouldn’t have let Shi Luo join the team. He was such a good kid. Wouldn’t it have been better for him to go to another team than just be your substitute? In the first place, didn’t I urge you to give him to Lao Gu? Gu Gan said it himself. If he went to their team he would have been part of their starting lineup. But you wouldn’t listen……”

Yu Sui didn’t speak.

Puppy harped on and then sighed. He put on his headphones and continued listening to the comedy skit.

Back when Shi Luo had just moved into the FS base, Yu Sui really did consider sending him to NSN.

At the time, aside from their boss, Ji Yanhan, everyone in the team felt that Shi Luo should be sent away.

There really was no reason for Shi Luo to remain at FS back then.

But it was Yu Sui who arranged for him to come and the final decision on what to do with him fell to Yu Sui.

Yu Sui hesitated for a long time. During those few days, he definitely smoked way too much.

“Are you trying to smoke out mosquitoes?”

Seventeen-year-old Shi Luo shoved open the door to Yu Sui’s dorm room in the base. He frowned. “Aren’t you afraid of choking on all this smoke?”

Yu Sui looked anxiously at this teenager that he’d picked up. He blow out some smoke.

Shi Luo opened the window for Yu Sui, puzzled. “You’re not that old. How’d your addiction get so bad?”

Yu Sui flicked off the ash from his cigarette. “I’m soon going to be a four-year veteran. Is that still ‘not that old’?”

“You’re just a bit older than me …” When Shi Luo sat, he didn’t sit down properly. He squatted on the sofa opposite Yu Sui and looked around. “Do you still play with Gundams?”
