"Of course, Mom, the sweet and sour pork ribs you make are the best in the world." Xu Mo responded with a smile, his eyes full of longing and determination for the future.
At the same time, the EDG team is also preparing for the next key game. The players are well aware of Xu Mo's importance to the team. In addition to training, they also care about Xu Mo's mother's condition through video calls and convey the team's cohesion and fighting spirit to him.
That night, Xu Mo had an online conversation with his teammates in the ward. "Brothers, I know you are all doing your best, and I feel your support and encouragement." Xu Mo looked at the camera with a firm gaze, "The doctor said that my mother will be able to go home and rest soon, and I will be back on the court soon."
Ah Shui was the first to respond: "Captain, we are all waiting for you to come back! We have helped you to keep your position, but we still hope that you can return to the team as soon as possible. After all, without you, we always feel that there is a lack of security on the field."
The factory manager nodded and said, "Xiao Mo, how are things going at home? As long as you are ready, you can come back anytime. The door of our EDG is always open to you."
Baolan took over the conversation: "Captain, when you were drafting on the sidelines, we felt like you were right next to us, but we would rather you go on the field in person and use Lee Sin to kick us out of the game."
Sister Tazi smiled and said, "Auntie is getting better, and we are happy for you. Remember to take good care of yourself and we will celebrate your victory together when you come back."
Listening to the heated discussion of his teammates, Xu Mo felt a warm current in his heart: "Thank you everyone, I will deal with the family affairs as soon as possible, and then return in the best condition. Please continue to work hard in training, and see you on the court."
After hanging up the phone, Xu Mo sat beside the bed, holding his mother's hand, and said softly: "Mom, my teammates are all good. They support me like family. When you are fully recovered, I will return to the court with this strength to realize our dream."
His mother looked at him kindly and nodded with satisfaction: "Xiao Mo, you are my pride. No matter where you are, remember that home is your eternal harbor and your strongest support."
As night falls, Xu Mo gazes at the starry sky outside the window, and his mind has already drawn pictures of future battles. He knows that ahead of him are both honors on the field and family responsibilities. In all these challenges, he will move forward with a more tenacious attitude, so that those who care about him can see that the familiar blind monk will finally step onto the battlefield again and decide the outcome.
The next morning, Xu Mo accompanied his mother to complete the discharge procedures and set off on the road home. At this time, in the EDG base, the players were ready to take on new challenges. They firmly believed that in the near future, their captain Xu Mo would return with a stronger attitude and write their own e-sports legend together.
After his mother was discharged from the hospital, Xu Mo took her back to his hometown to rest. The environment in his hometown was quiet and comfortable, which helped his mother recover better. However, the peaceful life did not last long. After some relatives learned about Xu Mo's success in e-sports and his lucrative income, they came to visit him.
That afternoon, a distant relative who hadn't seen for a long time suddenly visited. After a few pleasantries with a big smile on his face, he went straight to the point: "Xiao Mo, I heard that you are now a big star in the e-sports circle and your income is not small. Look, your uncle has encountered some difficulties recently and needs working capital for business. Can you lend me some money for emergency?"
Xu Mo frowned slightly. He knew that this cousin was not really concerned about his mother's health, but was interested in his "money bag". He did not respond immediately, but turned to his mother and asked, "Mom, do you still remember this cousin?"
The mother nodded gently. Although her body had not yet fully recovered, her eyes were still clear: "I remember that he is your third uncle's child, but our family hasn't been in contact much in recent years."
After getting his mother's answer, Xu Mo turned to look at his uncle with a polite but firm smile on his face: "Uncle, I understand your feelings when you are in trouble. But I have a principle that loans must have a clear repayment plan and purpose. After all, this is my hard-earned money, and every penny must be used wisely."
When the cousin heard this, his face changed slightly, but he still tried to play the emotional card: "Hey, we are all family, why are you still arguing with me about this? Don't worry, when my business gets better, I will definitely pay you back with interest."
Xu Mo said firmly, "Uncle, it's not that I don't want to help, but I have my own difficulties. My mother needs long-term rehabilitation treatment, and the competition in the e-sports industry is fierce. I will also need money in many places in the future. If you really need it urgently, I suggest you make a detailed repayment plan and seek help from banks or other formal channels."
After the words fell, the uncle's face became more embarrassed, and he could only leave in embarrassment. This incident made Xu Mo realize that success will also bring various unexpected problems, but he always remained sober and rational, protecting his family and hard-earned results.
In the evening, Xu Mo told his teammates about the incident via video call. Everyone expressed their understanding and support. Ah Shui even joked, "Captain, your trick of convincing people with reason is really brilliant. Next time someone wants to borrow money, just let them come to me. I will tell them your story and they will definitely give up."
The factory manager also smiled and agreed: "Xiao Mo, you did the right thing. Everyone has their own responsibilities and burdens, and we cannot easily compromise because of other people's difficulties. Remember, no matter when and where, our EDG brothers are on your side."
Listening to the support from his teammates, Xu Mo felt warm in his heart and said gratefully: "Thank you for your understanding and support. I will deal with my family affairs as soon as possible and then devote myself to the competition. See you on the court!"
In the dead of night, Xu Mo sat in the courtyard of his hometown, looking up at the starry sky, feeling deeply moved. He knew that there were challenges on the field and trivialities in life ahead, but he was ready to face it all with a more mature mentality.
"Mom, no matter what, I will protect this family and fight for our honor." Xu Mo promised softly in the direction of his mother's room.
A new day is coming, and Xu Mo's story continues. On the road of family affection, responsibility and dreams, he will write his own legendary chapter with a more tenacious attitude. In the hearts of those who care about him, the figure of the blind monk is always active on the battlefield, deciding the outcome with one foot, and never far away...
A week later, his mother's health condition gradually improved, and Xu Mo began to prepare to return to the team. However, at this time, his parents made an unexpected request.
"Xiao Mo, you see your mother is in much better health now. We are taking care of her at home, so don't rush back." My father said as he flipped through the newspaper with a meaningful smile on his face.
The mother nodded and agreed: "Yes, Xiao Mo, you are not a child anymore. You are usually busy with competitions and have no time to think about personal problems. I discussed it with your father and arranged a blind date for you."
Xu Mo was shocked when he heard this. He didn't expect his parents to bring up this matter at this time. "Mom and Dad, I really don't have this thought right now. The team is still waiting for me to return."
"Oh, it won't take up much of your time. It's just a meeting. It's good to make more friends." The mother patted his hands, her eyes full of concern for her son's lifelong affairs.
Looking at his parents' expectant eyes, Xu Mo knew that he couldn't refuse directly, so he could only nod helplessly: "Well, since you all said so, I will go and meet them."
On the day of the blind date, Xu Mo went to the cafe as agreed, and saw that the other party was a gentle and elegant girl named Lin Yue. Although the conversation between the two was short, the atmosphere was harmonious. Lin Yue showed great interest and understanding of Xu Mo's profession, which surprised him secretly.
When he returned home in the evening, Xu Mo told his teammates about this incident, and everyone couldn't help but make fun of him.
"Captain, that's good. Now there's someone outside the game who can cheer you on," A Shui joked.
The factory manager said earnestly, "Xiao Mo, you can't force relationships, but you can't let them go easily. If you think it's a good match, why not try to get along with each other?"
Baolan also chimed in: "Yes, after all, the pace of life for us e-sports players is different from that of ordinary people. It is important to have someone who understands and supports you around."
Sister Tazi smiled and nodded: "However, no matter what, we support your decision. Take care of your family affairs and then go all out to pursue your dreams."
Listening to his teammates' suggestions, Xu Mo fell into deep thought. He knew that he really needed to find more balance in his life, and the appearance of Lin Yue might be a new beginning.
"Thank you, everyone. I will think about it carefully." Xu Mo responded, "However, the most important thing now is to return to the competition. Once I achieve more results on the competition, it won't be too late to talk about other things."
As night fell, Xu Mo stood in the courtyard of his hometown, looking up at the starry sky, and his determination became stronger. He knew that whether it was family, love or career, he needed to work hard to live up to himself and others.
"Mom, Dad, I promise you that I will take this blind date seriously, but please give me some time so that I can play the game in front of me well first." Xu Mo whispered to the night sky, as if he was assuring his parents, or making a promise to himself.
After the blind date, Xu Mo thought it was just an ordinary social event, but not long after, he learned Lin Yue's true face from the conversation of his teammates. It turned out that Lin Yue was exposed on the Internet as a woman who was keen on pursuing fame and wealth and worshipping money, which was completely opposite to the gentle image she showed when they first met.
"Captain, you'd better be careful about Lin Yue. It is said on the Internet that she is after your money and fame." A Shui said indignantly.
The factory manager frowned, and after a moment's silence, he said, "Xiao Mo, although it's not good for others to say too much about matters of the heart, you really have to keep your eyes open. If he is really such a person, it might be a good thing to see through him earlier."
Baolan nodded in agreement: "Yes, Captain, we support you in finding true love, but you must not be taken advantage of."
Although Sister Tazi didn't say anything, it could be seen from her expression that she was also dissatisfied with Lin Yue's behavior. She had a complicated look on her face, as if she was trying hard to hide something.
Facing the concern and reminders from his teammates, Xu Mo smiled faintly and responded: "Thank you for your reminders, I will pay attention. However, Lin Yue and I have just met, so it is too early to draw conclusions. Moreover, I believe that time will prove everything."
At night, Xu Mo sat alone in the gaming chair, thinking about what happened during the day. He understood that as a public figure, his every move would be magnified and interpreted. But he was unwilling to make a conclusion about a person based on a few words on the Internet, especially for Lin Yue, he felt it necessary to understand and judge in person.
A few days later, Xu Mo decided to contact Lin Yue and asked her to meet him in a quiet bookstore. When Lin Yue arrived as scheduled, she was obviously a little surprised to see Xu Mo looking down at a book about the e-sports industry.
"Xu Mo, I didn't expect that in this busy corner of the city, you would be waiting for me quietly here." Lin Yue's voice was soft with a hint of surprise. She walked slowly to the seat opposite Xu Mo and sat down. The sound of her footsteps was particularly clear in the quiet space.
Xu Mo raised his eyes from the coffee cup in his hand, staring at Lin Yue with his deep eyes, his eyes were clear and sincere: "Lin Yue, I think we really need to sit down and have a good talk. How do you feel about the recent comments circulating on the Internet?"
Hearing this, Lin Yue was slightly stunned at first, as if a sensitive nerve was touched, but she quickly adjusted herself and showed a relieved smile, like the warm spring sun melting the winter snow: "Xu Mo, I understand what you mean. Everyone's life is a complicated script, and I am no exception. I once pursued the splendor and brilliance of material life, but after experiencing some things, I realized the true value of life. That conversation with you was like a key that opened the door for me to re-examine my outlook on life."
Xu Mo listened attentively, with a trace of deep thought across his brows. He admired Lin Yue's courage to face the past and analyze herself, knowing that the process of growth is a process of continuous trial and error and awakening. He responded gently: "I respect your current choice and the changes you have made. In this case, we can start as friends, use time to understand each other's true selves, and let each other's lives slowly intertwine."
After hearing this, Lin Yue's eyes flashed with determination and expectation. She nodded and agreed: "Thank you, Xu Mo. This understanding and acceptance is invaluable to me. I will use practical actions to prove that I have transformed."
After this in-depth conversation, Xu Mo did not immediately inform his teammates about the matter. Instead, he chose to quietly observe and contact Lin Yue in his own way. At the same time, he also devoted himself more wholeheartedly to the intensive and intense training to prepare for the upcoming key competition.
