When Li Shiyi and Little Fool arrived at Mountain Internet Cafe on the subway, it was just past 5: 50 pm.
There were still ten minutes left before six o 'clock.
"I made it!"
Little Fool beamed with joy, and Li Shiyi, who was next to him, breathed a sigh of relief. They couldn't be late for this kind of thing. Otherwise, if they were caught by the club's leader, they would definitely be reprimanded. Maybe some money would be deducted when they distributed the red packet.
For him, even if the red packet he received was only a hundred or two yuan less, it would definitely be an unbearable heartache.
"Let's go in."
Li Shiyi pulled his roommate beside him and took the lead to walk in the direction of the Mountain Internet Cafe's entrance.
He pushed open the door and entered the internet cafe. At this moment, the lobby of the internet cafe was already bustling with noise and excitement. An eye-catching poster was hung at the front desk. The image of the poster was impressively advertising the eye-catching team emblem of the High Mountain Battle Team, as well as the photos of the main members of the first team, who would be staying in the internet cafe for an event tonight.
All of them had been refurbished with Photoshop technology, and they looked incomparably spirited.
The demeanor of a godly expert was immediately revealed.
Little Fool could not help but feel a little envious. He pulled Li Shiyi beside him and whispered,
"Sigh, my latest goal is to put my photo on this poster. I'm so handsome."
Li Shiyi listened and smiled.
"Then you have to work hard. Only the five main team members of the first team are qualified to appear on this kind of poster."
"Of course!" Little Fool was smug. Then, as if he had thought of something, he said, "Brother Li, you also played in the main team when you were in the High Mountain Team, right? I heard people talk about it before. It seems that a few years ago, our team almost made it to the LPL. Really? "
Li Shiyi nodded and then shook his head.
"It's all in the past."
"But … back then, we were indeed only one step away from the LPL."
"Is it really that awesome?" Little Fool's eyes widened in surprise, and then he said regretfully, "Sigh, it's a pity that we didn't succeed. Otherwise, we would also be a member of the LPL team now … It sounds much more impressive than the LSPL team."
Li Shiyi smiled again and did not say anything, but his thoughts were slightly drifting.
A member of the LPL team?
Back then …
The achievements that he and his teammates had achieved were far beyond what an ordinary LPL professional team could compare to.
Before Li Shiyi could let his thoughts wander, Little Waiter nudged Li Shiyi and interrupted his thoughts.
"Hey, Brother Li! Stop daydreaming! "
"Our team is right in front. I can see our leader!"
As if awakened from a dream, Li Shiyi looked in the direction the waiter was pointing at. Sure enough, he saw that there were already Team One and Team Two of his club's members gathered near the arena in the center of the internet cafe's lobby. The team leader was all smiles as he chatted with a middle-aged man who was wearing a suit and had the air of a boss.
Thus, the two of them hurriedly followed.
"Leader!"
When they arrived in front of the team leader, Li Shiyi and Small Fool bowed and greeted him respectfully. The conversation with the boss in front of him was interrupted. The team leader of High Mountain Squad could not help but frown and look at the two people.
"What took you so long?"
"We were almost late, you know?"
The moment he opened his mouth, he reprimanded them rudely.
As the substitute members of the club, their status was the lowest and they had no right to speak. Li Shiyi and Small Fool had been reprimanded like this many times and were long used to it. At this moment, they hurriedly apologized with a smile on their faces.
"Yes, yes, yes, we are so sorry!"
"Leader, you are a magnanimous person. We will definitely not do this again!"
Even though Li Shiyi and Small Fool were bowing and apologizing, the team leader was still not satisfied. He glanced at Small Fool, then his gaze fell on Li Shiyi. He frowned and continued to reprimand them.
"I say, Old Li, it's fine if Small Fool is a newcomer in our club and doesn't know the rules. But you are a senior member of our club, how can you be so ignorant?
"With this attitude, how can you be a role model for the other newcomers, huh?!"
Small Fool was a little anxious when he heard this. He hurriedly tried to defend Li Shiyi. "No, Leader, listen to me. This has nothing to do with Brother Li …"
But before he could finish, the team leader glanced at him and interrupted him.
"Am I talking to you here?"
"What are you interrupting me for?"
Small Fool was speechless. Li Shiyi hurriedly and secretly pulled his roommate beside him. His face twitched slightly as he forced a smile at the team leader. "Leader, I am so sorry. I will definitely pay attention. I will definitely not do this again …"
As he spoke in such a subservient tone, his body unconsciously stooped a little more.
At this time, the middle-aged man with a big belly who was standing at the side looked at Li Shiyi from head to toe. Then, as if he had thought of something, he raised his eyebrows with interest.
"This … looks a little familiar?"
The team leader hurriedly turned to the middle-aged man with a smile. "Mr. Wang, this is also a member of our High Mountain team. His name is Li Shiyi. He is currently playing the substitute position in the club. But he can be considered a senior member of our club. He has been in the team for several years."
"Li Shiyi?"
Mr. Wang rubbed his chin and thought for a moment. His eyes lit up.
"Oh, I remember now."
"You … joined the club during the S2 season right? I remember that you were a jungler. At that time, you were one of the main players of the first team?"
Li Shiyi was taken aback. Then, he looked at Mr. Wang and forced a smile.
"Yes, that's right."
The team leader tried to flatter him. "Mr. Wang, you have a good memory! Indeed, Old Li is the oldest member of our club. Speaking of which, he joined the club earlier than I did. "
Mr. Wang laughed and waved his hand. "Not just you, I only invested in your club during the S3 season. At that time, I also heard that there was an ace jungler in our team. Unfortunately, there was no news of him after that. Now, he's actually a substitute. That's really unexpected …"
As he said that, he looked at Li Shiyi with a regretful expression.
The team leader seemed to be disapproving. He smiled and said, "Isn't that so? But what kind of professional player's golden age is only for a short period of time. Once it's over, it's over. How can an old guy from the S2 season still maintain his level? Isn't that a fantasy?"
Li Shiyi stood in place with his head lowered.
Faced with such an occasion, listening to CEO Wang's somewhat indifferent words of regret and pity, as well as the dismissive evaluation of the leader, he could only silently endure it without saying a word.
Fortunately, Mr. Wang seemed to have quickly lost interest in Li Shiyi, this "veteran player". The team leader impatiently waved his hand at Li Shiyi and Little Fool.
"That's enough."
"The internet cafe event will start at six o 'clock. You two hurry over."
"I don't think I need to teach you what to do, right?"
Li Shiyi and Little Fool thanked him as if they had been granted amnesty. They turned around and left in a hurry. After walking for a while, Little Fool heaved a sigh of relief.
"Finally, it's over."
"Hey, Brother Li, are you okay?"
As he said that, he looked at Li Shiyi with concern. He felt that it was unfair. "The team leader was obviously targeting you. I couldn't stand it!"
Li Shiyi took a deep breath and shook his head.
"I'm fine."
"Let's not talk about this. Let's hurry to the arena. The exhibition match is about to start."
