As the competition day approaches, the esports team has once again immersed themselves in intense training. Throughout this process, Liu Shengnan has been like a warm ray of sunshine, always using his humor to relieve the pressure for everyone.
After a day of training, the team gathered in the lounge, the atmosphere slightly weary. Seeing everyone feeling a bit down, Liu Shengnan suddenly stood up, adjusted his glasses in a pretentious manner, and began imitating the team's coach, instantly filling the room with laughter.
"Look at me, I'm the coach. You little brats have played ten matches in a row and still show no signs of fatigue. Do you think my training is a joke?" Liu Shengnan said, putting on a serious expression that made everyone burst into laughter.
Lin Shiyong couldn't help but applaud and cheer, "Shengnan, your imitation of a coach is spot on! I almost thought you were the real deal."
Gu Jincheng also revealed a rare smile: "The hard training during this time has been much more relaxed with you around."
Just as everyone's laughter began to fade, Liu Shengnan suddenly turned to Lin Shiyong and Gu Jincheng, and said seriously, "Honestly, I see the two of you working so well together on the competition field, and in life, you're inseparable. Is there some untold secret between you?"
The sudden question caused the previously relaxed atmosphere to freeze in an instant, and both Lin Shiyong and Gu Jincheng blushed at the same time. Lin Shiyong, a bit flustered, retorted, "What secret? Don't say such things. Jincheng and I are just friends."
Gu Jincheng, on the other hand, remained somewhat calmer, but the blush that momentarily appeared on his face betrayed his feelings. "Stop talking nonsense. Let's focus on training."
Liu Shengnan looked at their awkward expressions and suddenly burst into laughter. "Haha, I knew you would react like this; I was just joking. But seriously, you two really make a good match."
Her words were like a small stone thrown into a pond, stirring ripples in Lin Shiyong's heart. She lowered her head in silence, but her mind was pondering Liu Shengnan's words. Gu Jincheng smiled slightly, seemingly indifferent to Liu Shengnan's comment, yet he was quietly reflecting on his feelings for Lin Shiyong.
In the following days, Lin Shiyong and Gu Jincheng were somewhat distracted, each pondering the hidden meaning behind Liu Shengnan's joking remarks. Their interactions became more subtle; at times they exchanged smiles, while at other moments they avoided each other's gaze, as if both were searching for an opportunity to clarify the confusion in their hearts.
After a late-night practice session, Gu Jincheng decided to have a deep conversation with Lin Shiyong. They chose a quiet café and sat in a secluded corner.
Gu Jincheng spoke first, his voice calm yet carrying a hint of seriousness. "Lin Shiyong, did you feel uncomfortable with Shengnan's joke that day?"
Lin Shiyong slightly shook his head, a complex emotion in his eyes. "It's not that I felt uncomfortable, just a bit surprised. We've always been good friends, and I... I never considered there could be other possibilities."
Gu Jincheng took a deep breath and gazed out at the night view outside the window. He then turned back, looking sincerely at Lin Shiyong. "Shiyong, actually, my feelings for you have changed a bit during this time. I think maybe what we have is more than just friendship."
Hearing this, Lin Shiyong's heart skipped a beat. She didn't respond immediately but lowered her head, gently stirring her coffee. After a long moment, she looked up with a determined and sincere expression. "Jincheng, I feel the same way. I've also been thinking about our relationship during this time. I'm glad you spoke up first."
At that moment, the air seemed to freeze, and the heartbeats of the two were unusually clear in the quiet night. Gu Jincheng reached out and gently held Lin Shiyong's hand. Without saying a word, that warm touch conveyed all their emotions.
From that night on, Lin Shiyong and Gu Jincheng's relationship underwent a qualitative change. They no longer deliberately avoided each other's gaze; instead, they began to share their feelings more openly, and the trust and reliance between them deepened significantly.
Liu Shengnan watched all of this with a mix of surprise and joy. A slight smile crept onto his lips as he thought, "Who would have thought that a simple joke of mine could become a catalyst for their relationship?" He chose not to reveal this insight and instead decided to silently support them.
The progress in the relationship between Lin Shiyong and Gu Jincheng was also evident in their performance during the esports competition. Their on-field synergy reached new heights, not only securing an important victory for their team but also allowing everyone to witness the special and profound bond they shared.
As time passed, the atmosphere within the esports team grew increasingly harmonious. Everyone noticed the changes between Lin Shiyong and Gu Jincheng, but they chose to respect and bless their relationship. Liu Shengnan remained the cheerful spirit who could lighten everyone's stress with humor, but now he had taken on an additional role—silently guarding this new budding romance.
Amidst the enthusiastic cheers from the audience, the atmosphere at the esports competition reached a boiling point. On stage, Lin Shiyong and Gu Jincheng sat in their respective positions, with the screen in front of them displaying the key moments of the upcoming match. Lin Shiyong, possessing a natural optimism and drive, nervously yet eagerly adjusted her equipment. Her fingers lightly tapped on the table, revealing her excitement and anxiety within.
Gu Jincheng remained calm, his gaze steady and focused, like an experienced general who had already devised a plan for the impending battle. He occasionally turned to observe Lin Shiyong, ensuring that she was in optimal condition.
As the match officially began, both teams quickly engaged in intense combat. Lin Shiyong and Gu Jincheng, through precise coordination, repeatedly thwarted their opponents' attacks while cleverly finding opportunities to counterattack. However, during a crucial offensive, Lin Shiyong made a mistake in her execution, causing her character to fall into a passive state.
"Jincheng, I... I think I messed up!" Lin Shiyong anxiously spoke through the team voice chat, his voice filled with panic and self-blame.
Gu Jincheng quickly analyzed the current situation. His voice came through the headset, calm and firm: "Don't panic, just follow my instructions. You retreat for now, and I'll draw their fire."
Lin Shiyong hesitated for a moment but chose to trust Gu Jincheng, quickly executing a retreat with his character. Gu Jincheng, on the other hand, performed an astonishing solo act with his character, successfully drawing the enemy's attention and cleverly using the terrain to defeat each opponent one by one.
As the last opponent fell, thunderous applause and cheers erupted in the venue. Lin Shiyong and Gu Jincheng's team successfully turned the tide and won this crucial victory.
After the match, Lin Shiyong excitedly turned to Gu Jincheng and said, "Jincheng, thanks to you! I was really panicking just now, almost..."
Gu Jincheng revealed a rare smile and replied, "Actually, you did very well; you were just a bit too anxious. Remember, no matter what difficulties you face, you are not fighting alone."
Lin Shiyong bit her lip and suddenly smiled, "Got it, my personal coach. I won't let you worry so much next time."
Gu Jincheng shook his head but did not refute her. In the midst of Lin Shiyong's laughter, the corners of his eyes lifted slightly, filled with an unspoken tenderness. He emphasized again, "Next time, we need to analyze calmly and not act impulsively. In esports competitions, every second is full of variables."
Lin Shiyong nodded, his eyes shining with respect. "I will remember that. With you by my side, I won't stop progressing."
In the lounge, the interaction between the two made their teammates feel the unique camaraderie they shared. After this match, not only Lin Shiyong and Gu Jincheng, but the entire team's cohesion and confidence received a significant boost.
At this moment, Tsai Xingrei also arrived in the lounge to congratulate them. Tsai Xingrei looked at the two and joked, "Oh, look at our esports golden couple; their teamwork is simply flawless!"
Liu Shengnan then laughed and said, "Yes, Captain Gu is usually so cold, but he is really gentle with Shiyong."
Gu Jincheng merely smiled without rebutting, while Lin Shiyong gently patted Tsai Xingrei's shoulder and said with a laugh, "Xingrei, are you feeling jealous? How about next time we team up, and you can experience it for yourself?"
Tsai Xingrei feigned panic and shook her hand, saying, "Oh no, never mind, I'll just focus on being my fashion blogger self. I can't handle the intensity of esports."
Amidst the laughter, everyone felt the relaxation after the match.
At the post-match celebration banquet, everyone raised their glasses in celebration. Liu Shengnan stood up to speak: "I want to thank two people, one is our tactical master, Captain Gu, and the other is our soul shooter, Lin Shiyong. Without your perfect cooperation, we could not have won today's match. More importantly, you have shown us that teamwork is not just about collaboration, but also about deep emotions. You are our pride!"
Everyone applauded as Lin Shiyong and Gu Jincheng exchanged smiles, filled with pride.
Time flew by like a fleeting horse, and Lin Shiyong and Gu Jincheng continued to improve in the world of esports, their relationship growing stronger. Liu Shengnan, the person who once made a joke that helped them realize each other's importance, also left a unique mark on their love story.
