The contestant is too old, sister Zhou is crazy

Chapter 980 Sad

"Yeah." Rita nodded, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes, "I don't really like such overly enthusiastic people, especially her look, which always makes me feel uneasy."

"Are you talking about her identity as a fan?" Xu Mo asked tentatively, secretly thinking about Rita's true thoughts in his heart.

"Not only that, but also her attention to you." Rita sighed slightly, with a hint of uneasiness in her eyes, "I don't know why I feel uncomfortable with your interaction with her."

"Rita, you and I are friends, and I won't let anyone affect our relationship." Xu Mo said seriously, secretly feeling a little warm in his heart. Rita's care made him feel even more cherished.

"I know, but sometimes I think too much." Rita smiled slightly, as if trying to hide her emotions, "But you made me very happy today."

"Me too." Xu Mo felt warm in his heart and took a sip of wine. The aroma of the wine spread on his tongue, bringing a warm feeling.

"Then let's continue chatting." Rita's eyes flickered with anticipation, "Do you have anything you want to share with me?"

"My worries..." Xu Mo was slightly stunned, and his thoughts involuntarily returned to his e-sports career. Pressure, competition, loneliness, and all kinds of emotions were intertwined in his heart. "In fact, sometimes I feel very lonely. Although I have many friends around me, I always feel that there is no one I can really talk to."

"I understand." Rita nodded, her tone gentle, "As an e-sports player, everyone only sees your glamour, but few people know the hard work and loneliness behind it."

"Yeah." Xu Mo took a deep breath, and the burden in his heart seemed to be released at this moment. "Sometimes I want to give up, but I feel that I can't let down those who support me."

"You are not alone." Rita's voice was like a warm current, flowing gently into Xu Mo's heart, "No matter what happens, I will be by your side to support you."

"Thank you, Rita." Xu Mo smiled slightly, feeling warm in his heart, "I'm really lucky to have a friend like you."

"Me too." Rita took a sip of her wine, her eyes gleaming with determination, as if she was making a commitment to their friendship.

As the glasses clinked, their thoughts gradually opened up in a relaxed atmosphere. Xu Mo and Rita talked about each other's dreams, future plans, and even some deep-seated worries. Time passed unnoticed, the glasses were filled again and again, and laughter and relaxed conversations echoed in the room.

"Have you ever thought about what you want to do in the future?" Rita asked suddenly, with a hint of anticipation in her eyes.

"I hope to continue developing in the e-sports circle, and even become a coach one day to train more young players." Xu Mo said seriously, his eyes flashing with longing for the future.

"Then you can definitely do it." Rita smiled slightly, her eyes full of trust, "I believe in your ability."

"Thank you." Xu Mo felt a warm feeling in his heart. Rita's trust made him feel encouraged.

Just then, Rita's phone rang again. She glanced at the caller ID and frowned slightly: "Sorry, I have to answer the phone."

"It's okay." Xu Mo smiled slightly, secretly relieved, and took the opportunity to organize his thoughts.

Rita went to the balcony to answer the phone. The breeze blew gently, and the stars in the night sky twinkled, as if blessing their friendship. Xu Mo sat quietly on the sofa, with a lot of thoughts in his mind, and the fluctuations in his heart became clearer at this moment.

Not long after, Rita hung up the phone, and the smile on her face seemed a little tired: "Sorry to have kept you waiting."

"It's okay, I was just thinking about something." Xu Mo smiled slightly, but he was secretly thinking about Rita's emotions in his heart.

"What are you thinking about?" Rita sat back on the sofa, curiosity in her eyes.

"I was thinking, if I really become a coach one day, what kind of players would I want to train?" Xu Mo said slowly, his eyes flashing with longing for the future.

"I think you will definitely find the right person." Rita smiled slightly, with a determined light in her eyes, "and you will definitely become an excellent coach."

"I hope so." Xu Mo answered softly, but he secretly felt a warmth in his heart. Rita's support made him feel encouraged.

At this moment, Rita's eyes suddenly became serious, as if she was thinking about something: "Xu Mo, have you ever thought about what else you would like to try besides e-sports?"

"Try other hobbies?" Xu Mo was slightly stunned, and a thought flashed through his mind, "I have always wanted to learn guitar, but I never had the time."

"Guitar? Then we can learn together!" Rita's eyes sparkled with excitement, "I happen to have a guitar, we can practice together."

"Really? That's great." Xu Mo felt delighted and seemed to have new expectations for his future life.

"That's right, come to my house when you are free and we will practice together." Rita smiled slightly, with a hint of anticipation in her eyes.

"I definitely will." Xu Mo nodded seriously, secretly feeling a warmth in his heart. He cherished his friendship with Rita even more.

As the night deepened, the wine in the glass gradually decreased, and Xu Mo and Rita's conversation became more and more in-depth. Their thoughts blended at this moment, which seemed to bring them closer. Xu Mo felt Rita's care, and Rita also saw warmth and trust in Xu Mo's eyes.

At this moment, Rita's eyes flashed with a hint of mischief: "Xu Mo, what do you think is the relationship between us?"

"Relationship?" Xu Mo was slightly stunned, thinking secretly in his heart, and then answered seriously, "I think we are very good friends and people who can trust each other."

"Friends? That's not enough." Rita smiled slightly, with a mischievous gleam in her eyes, "I think we can go further."

"Go one step further?" Xu Mo's heart was shocked, and he suddenly realized what Rita meant, and a blush appeared on his face involuntarily.

"Yes, besides being friends, I think we can also be each other's supporters." Rita's voice was soft and firm, with a hint of expectation in her eyes.

"So...you mean we can try a more intimate relationship?" Xu Mo asked with a slight stutter, feeling secretly uneasy.

"That's right." Rita nodded slightly, with a determined light in her eyes, "I hope to share more time with you."

"Me too." Xu Mo felt a warm feeling in his heart, as if he felt each other's feelings at this moment.

At this moment, Rita moved closer, with a hint of anticipation in her eyes: "Xu Mo, can we try to go a step further?"

"Of course." Xu Mo's heartbeat quickened and a warm light flashed in his eyes. It seemed that at this moment, their relationship had changed invisibly.

As the night grew darker, the wine in the glass gradually dried up. Xu Mo and Rita's thoughts intertwined at this moment, and their feelings for each other quietly heated up in the relaxed atmosphere.

Xu Mo looked at Rita's face, which was so close to him. Her eyes were filled with anticipation and a hint of nervousness. He nodded gently, with a gentle smile on his face: "Okay, let's try it."

Rita's eyes lit up instantly, and a smile spread from her lips to her eyes: "It's a deal then, don't make me jealous again in the future."

"I promise." Xu Mo raised his hand as if to swear, his tone serious but also a little teasing, "But you looked quite cute just now."

"Hey!" Rita's ears turned red, and she was about to hit him, but Xu Mo grabbed her wrist. The two smiled at each other, and the previous friction seemed to have never existed.

"It's getting late. I should go back to the base." Xu Mo glanced at his phone. Although he was reluctant, the work and rest discipline of professional players was engraved in his bones.

"Shall I take you there?" Rita stood up to get the car keys.

"No, you've been drinking, don't drive." Xu Mo held her hand and shook his head, "I'll just call a taxi."

Rita couldn't persuade him, so she had to send him to the door. The night breeze was cool, and she suddenly reached out and hugged him, her voice muffled in his shoulder: "Be careful on the road."

"Okay, see you tomorrow." Xu Mo rubbed her hair, turned and walked towards the taxi he stopped on the roadside.

The neon lights were rapidly receding, and Xu Mo was just lowering his head to send a message to Rita to let her know he was safe, when suddenly a sharp brake sound tore through the night sky!

"boom--!"

The car body shook violently, and Xu Mo subconsciously protected his head, and was thrown to the front seat by inertia. The pull of the seat belt made his chest feel stuffy, but fortunately he was not injured.

"Master! Are you okay?!" He hurriedly unbuckled his seat belt and found that the driver's forehead had hit the steering wheel and blood was flowing.

"No, it's okay..." The driver's voice was weak, and it was obvious that he was seriously injured.

Xu Mo immediately called 120 and the traffic police, accompanied the driver until the ambulance arrived, and helped to complete the accident record. When everything was handled, it was already one o'clock in the morning.

When I pushed open the door to EDG's base, the lights in the training room were still on. Zwada and Meiko were playing in a duo with headphones on, and the screen showed an intense teamfight.

"Hey, Brother Mo is back?" The factory manager caught a glimpse of him out of the corner of his eye, his hands still working, "You're still working overtime so late?"

"Don't mention it. I had a car accident on the road." Xu Mo collapsed on the sofa and breathed a sigh of relief.

"What?!" Meiko turned his head sharply, almost pulling out the earphone wire, "Are you okay?"

"I'm lucky. It's just a little scratch." Xu Mo shook the band-aid on his wrist and pointed at the computer. "Your game is almost over? Take me to play a few games to calm down."

The factory manager smiled and threw him a can of Coke: "Okay, it's a good time to try out a new strategy."

Xu Mo opened the can, and the cool sweetness slid down his throat. The familiar sound of the keyboard, the teasing of his teammates, the jumping game interface on the screen - at this moment, he suddenly felt that no matter how many bizarre accidents there were outside, as long as he returned here, everything would be fine.

Xu Mo adjusted his mentality and quickly entered the game state. His opponent in the qualifying match was Doinb, a strong mid laner from LPL. Xu Mo's heart tightened. Doinb is famous for his flexible play style and unique hero pool. Whether he could gain the upper hand in this game became a big challenge in his mind.

"Brother Mo, are you ready to welcome Doinb?" the factory manager teased, with excitement gleaming in his eyes.

"Of course, let him see my strength today!" Xu Mo raised a confident smile, his fingers dancing flexibly on the keyboard, and he quickly chose his hero - "Jie".

"You're playing Zed again. You really can't let it go." Meiko chuckled. He knew how deeply Xu Mo understood this hero.

"Zheng is strong in laning and can also deal damage in team fights, which is just right for suppressing Doinb." Xu Mo said confidently, with a determined light in his eyes.

The game was loading, the blue crystal of the canyon was flickering in the morning light, and Xu Mo quickly entered the game. The opposing mid laner Doinb chose "Azir", which made Xu Mo nervous, as Azir's ability to suppress the laning phase should not be underestimated.

"Be careful at the beginning, Doinb's Azir is very strong." The factory manager reminded.

"I know." Xu Mo nodded, silently analyzing the opponent's playing style in his mind.

At the start of the game, Xu Mo quickly ran to the middle lane, using Zed's high mobility and skill combos to try to put pressure on Doinb in the early stages. As the first wave of minions appeared, Xu Mo decisively used the "Shadow Slash" skill to quickly clear the minions, trying to gain an advantage in the laning phase.

"Doinb is indeed a professional player, his reaction speed is really fast." Meiko was watching from the side and saw Doinb use the "Sand Dust" skill to avoid Xu Mo's attack.

"It's okay, continue to suppress him." The factory manager encouraged.

As time went on, Xu Mo's Zed gradually found his rhythm, using the "Shadow" skill to frequently harass Doinb, forcing him to be careful. Xu Mo's operation was smooth and precise, and he successfully used skills to consume Doinb's health several times, forcing the opponent to retreat.

"Well done, Brother Mo, keep it up!" Meiko cheered for him from the side.

However, Doinb did not give up easily and gradually found opportunities to counterattack. He used "Dust" to block Zed's shadow when Xu Mo made a mistake, and then used a wave of skills to instantly reduce Xu Mo's health to the edge of danger.

"Oh, I was too careless." Xu Mo regretted secretly, knowing in his heart that Doinb's reaction ability and grasp of the situation should not be underestimated.

"Don't be anxious, stay calm and keep fighting." The factory manager's voice came from the headset, supporting Xu Mo.

Xu Mo took a deep breath, quickly adjusted his mentality, and decided not to be too aggressive. He began to control his skill release more carefully, waiting for the right time.

"I'll go to the bottom lane to help." Meiko suddenly said. Seeing that the ADC in the bottom lane was being suppressed badly by the opponent, he decided to go to provide support.

"Okay, I'm ready to seize the opportunity here," Xu Mo responded, secretly planning in his mind how to use Jie's skill combination to counterattack.

As time went on, the battle between the two sides became more intense. Xu Mo continued to consume Doinb in the middle lane, and finally found an opportunity in a confrontation. He quickly used "Shadow Slash" to rush forward, and then cast "Mark of Death", reducing Doinb's health to the limit.

"Now is my chance!" Xu Mo was excited and decisively cast "Mark of Death", instantly killing Doinb and successfully opening up the situation for the team.

"Nice! Brother Mo!" The factory manager and Meiko cheered at the same time, and the atmosphere instantly became lively. (End of this chapter)
