Rui : indeed! It's her first day here today, she'll need to get some groceries or something, I would've forgotten if you hadn't mentioned it, I'll really have to arrange it

Cheng didn't change an expression looking at his computer screen

Rui : Brother Cheng, would you take her? Please....

All the members turned to Rui confused including me, no way I'm going anywhere with him

Cheng : I think I just said, you can assign someone

Rui : yes! I assigned you

Cheng turned back to his computer

Cheng : I'm very busy

Chubby : too busy loosing points?

Cheng looked at Chubby as if giving him a death wish to make, and I was there, awkwardly standing alone, waiting for the chosen person to take me to the supermarket.....is it that big deal to take me to the supermarket, I felt so much uncomfortable by the fact that no one wanted to take me there...I-

Cheng got up from his chair and took his phone from the table, he passed near me with a "let's go" I sighed and looked back at Rui while leaving

Me : Bye bye Rui

He smiled and waved at me

Rui : come home early!

Then I hurried after Cheng who was already out of sight

Me : WAIT FOR ME CHENG!

I closed the door behind me after seeing Cheng going to his car

Me : can I call you Cheng?

He didn't turn to me and continued walking

Cheng : you can even call me dad if you want

Me : I advise you to be a man

Cheng : didn't you call me that long ago? Shorty, hurry up!

I started running after him while he was walking, yeah he had long legs while I was left with these shorts ones

Me : wait for me!

Then I went face to face with him

Me : who are you calling Shorty? We met by chance, just relax and be kind man, why are you so hostile?

Cheng : because I didn't expect my future teammate to be a minor

I widened my eyes at his fierce face

Me : I'm 22, I've graduated from college !

Cheng : your height tells me you're lying, delete that tweet

Me : No.

I made it as a kid while saying this

Me : you shut me out in the first place, and you called me Shorty

Then I took my phone out of my pocket smiling

Me : that tweet is on top

He rolled his eyes and went to open the car

"Tong Yao!"

Me : Ai Jia

Then I went to him, Cheng sighed and followed me

Then I went to him, Cheng sighed and followed me

Ai Jia: Tong Yao, you didn't even tell me when you arrived

Me : it was your ex-girlfriend who ordered me not to contact you

Ai Jia looked down

Cheng : you know each other?

Me : we went to the same university, he's three years older than me, his mother was my teacher, his ex-girlfriend is my best friend and-

Cheng : did I ask you that much?

I fell silent, there was another guy with Ai Jia with glasses

The guy : "brother Cheng, is this the miss Tong Yao who tweeted about being locked out yesterday?" he said grinning

I smiled at him and nodded, Cheng rolled his eyes again

The guy : Tong Yao is the only girl among the professional players, Cheng, can you stop that painful face of yours?

Cheng's face didn't move

The guy : anyway, Miss Tong, my name is Liang Sheng

He stretched his hand at me for me to shake it, which I accepted

Liang Sheng : The captain of YQCB, our team is right next door, you're welcome to have meals with us

Me : thank you!

Cheng : don't corrupt us with food, one Chubby is enough

My smile faded away only by the fact by looking at him, he's looking at me as if I'm an annoying child he's stuck with

Cheng : by the way, let's do a battle before the national league

Liang Sheng : no problem, wait until our new guys are in place, I'll arrange with Rui

Cheng : seems that you have recruited some new aids? What position?

Liang Sheng : shooter, wait for the official announcement, big news!

Cheng glanced at the two one last time and turned around to his car, I ignored him and looked at Ai Jia again

Me : who is it?

Ai Jia : I don't know

Ai Jia looked at the ground for a few seconds then approached me and held my wrist like a 4 year old kid, I left an eyebrow at him

Ai Jia : Tong Yao, just put a good word for me with your best friend, at least, pull me off the blacklist, or tell me why she broke up with me

I took my wrist away from him and took a step back behind

Me : I can only tell you, your ex-girlfriend has turned down three offers from abroad to come home, and you only focused on how many tips you get for doing the live streaming

Ai Jia fell silent, then I heard a car approaching, it parked next to us, the window opened to reveal Cheng

Cheng : get in the car Shorty

I looked at the expensive car in amazement, Oh my god, I thought, do all the pros drive like this?

Cheng : what? You're used to Uber and don't know how to open the door yourself?

Me : no, no, I'll do it myself

I opened the front door of the car and sat next to brother Cheng

Me : "Brother Cheng, all I need is a pair of slippers, some daily toiletries" I said while putting up my security belt

Me : you can go to any mall around here

Cheng : or what? Take you to the furniture store?

I blinked at him a few times, he didn't smile a bit, then he turned again and drove the car away from Ai Jia and Liang Sheng

There was dead silent in the car, I was justlooking by the window 'til Cheng parked the car
