He stepped outside in a few steps and gestured with his hands for his Captain who was still seated in the driver’s seat to get out.
Mo Huaifeng opened the car door and walked over, Ji Zhiyao said, “Captain, in any case you’re entering the backyard of the nation, couldn’t you be maintain a slightly lower profile?”
Mo Huaifeng replied casually, “One car was sent for maintenance yesterday, the rest do not have petrol.”
He followed Ji Zhiyao up the stairs and walked to the door of the office, Ji Zhiyao beat him to opening the door and held it open for him. “Captain, go on in, I’ll stay outside and be a lookout for you guys.”
“Be a lookout, is it used this way?”
“It’s about the same meaning, as long as you can understand what I’m saying.”
Mo Huaifeng swept a glance at him, then walked inside. Ji Zhiyao waited for him to enter then closed the door right away.
Any frustrating matters shall all be left to Captain! He had better quickly search for a template and come up with a 10 thousand word reflection for his tutor.
Ji Zhiyao sat directly on a small empty space beside the office, using his phone as he leaned against the wall. When he had found the template, the door to the office remained tightly shut, hence he opened Weibo with great boredom, hoping to find some entertainment.
And he did, only it was of himself.
As the others in the battleteam were all part of his following, the moment Ji Zhiyao logged, he received a notification that K had tagged him, he tapped to look at the post in confusion and realized that it was a repost.
[Mix.KV: At the thought that your Yao-god is in school gloomily attending lessons and preparing for examinations while I get to go to Sanya to enjoy the sun and the beaches I just cannot hold back @Mix.Yao by the way, Captain went out earlier all for this, it seems.]
[lovingyouineverylook: True story, no exaggeration. Yao-god’s classmate here. Our tutor watched the national qualifiers on TV last week and then realized that Yao-god had not been coming to class and told his dorm mates to tell Yao-god to meet him once he is back in school. Today Yao-god came to class, and ran like mad outside when class ended, he gave his bag to his dorm mate to… By the looks of it ummm… Seems like there’s going to be a parent-teacher meeting?]
Even he himself had just found out about having to meet his parents, which classmate was this that she managed to guess even this? She must’ve been a special agent in her previous life!
Also K the idiot went so far as to repost it… In usual times he looked to be a human with mutt-like attitudes, an extremely shrewd person, why was he behaving like a retard who had taken too much of his medication! Why wasn’t Yuan Wei reining him in!
Does the great Yao-god not want his pride?
In the comments [The first eSports professional player in history who has to have his parents brought to school even after winning the championship], [Fi-god attended the parent-teacher meeting? Nothing wrong, he is the daddy after all], [I really don’t want to watch this sweet interaction it’s totally silly LOL], Ji Zhiyao’s jaw was almost breaking from how hard he was gritting his teeth.
It was really pissing him off.
Ji Zhiyao was full of anger as he sent K a WeChat text: [Look at what a great thing you’ve done! I’m ordering to f*cking kill yourself on the spot!]
[KisExtremelyHandsome: Don’t be like this. Was I wrong? Captain did not go out to attend your parent-teacher meeting.]
[MelonRind: ?]
[MelonRind: Whether he did or not, you’re really asking for a beating when you expose it like this.]
[KisExtremelyHandsome: Damn seems like it’s true. I’m about to die laughing big brother!]
Ji Zhiyao was so enraged that his skull was throbbing as he held his forehead, he realized that another voice message about 30 seconds long had popped up on his screen. He inhaled deeply, tapped it and heard K’s wretched voice. “You calm down! Think about how I’m going to Sanya soon and we’re going to be separated, you won’t be able to entertain me for a long time, do you now feel that it’s nothing just having me have some laughs? Besides how long has it been since you last got onto the trending searches? You hold the influencer title in our team! Should you become a has-been broadcaster, our team would be done for!”
Ji Zhiyao typed, feeling that his fingers were moving so fast they were bringing wind: [Did you think I would show mercy and forgive you? Heh, that does not exist. Just you wait, I will tell Captain in a while.]
K did not reply for a good few minutes. Just as Ji Zhiyao was feeling puzzled, he saw that another post had appeared on his Weibo feed and scrolled down to look at it.
[Mix.KV: Oh my god! Someone wants to silent me!]
This was him being very certain that he had to stay in school for lessons and couldn’t go back to the base to beat him up wasn’t it?
Sure, he’d committed it to memory.
Ji Zhiyao gritted his teeth as he glared furiously at the screen, when he did so till his eyes hurt, the door to the office opened.
Ji Zhiyao rubbed his eyes and saw Mo Huaifeng standing in the doorway against the light with a slight frown. “Why are you sitting there?”
The flames in his heart that had risen to a good three foot tall earlier instantly ceased, Ji Zhiyao stood up, dusting off his butt.
“Come in, your tutor wants to see you.”
Ji Zhiyao let out another “oh”… Though he also felt that he sounded a little like an idiot when he constantly let out such sounds, but he really did know what to say. He followed behind Mo Huaifeng into the office and greeted, “Sir.”
“Ji Zhiyao, I just had a chat with your Captain, all of you are indeed good lads. I’ll tell you what, I’ll make the decision, you don’t have to write the 10 thousand word reflection anymore. Do your best for your end-of-term examinations and aim to get a bursary.” His tutor said with all smiles.
Ji Zhiyao did not know what kind of new idea this was and swiftly threw several sideways glances at Mo Huaifeng, yet Mo Huaifeng remained unmoved, he could only break into a grin. “Thank you Sir, I will work hard.”
“Then that’s all. If you don’t have any more questions, you guys may go.”
Mo Huaifeng nodded towards the tutor, Ji Zhiyao bowed once again… Yet when he walked to the door, Ji Zhiyao suddenly recalled a matter and turned around again, saying, “Sir, I should let you know first, in the next semester, I would like to apply for a leave of absence from school.”
…
“Take a year’s leave from school?”
The three other people in the dorm looked confusedly at him, Ji Zhiyao sat on the stool and drank a mouthful of water before replying, “Yes, a year’s leave from school. What’s wrong?”
Yang Bing said, “Your results are not too bad, I don’t think the teachers will agree to you taking leave from school? Sounds impossible.”
Ji Zhiyao put his glass down, feeling very resigned as well. “But my schedule for the next semester is really too tight. After the New Year celebrations, the battleteam would be going overseas for isolated training, I reckon it’ll be several months, followed by the international league… This way, the amount of time I can spend in school would be less than a month, it would be better to temporarily stop schooling.”
Now that didn’t sound too unacceptable. Yang Bing and Wen Heng nodded, whereas Ning Lichao asked, “Did our tutor agree to it?”
“He didn’t agree, neither did he object, he only told me that he wanted my parents to contact him during the vacation. My reason is rather strong, I don’t think he would object after that.”
Yang Bing chimed in, “How about your parents? They also approve of you gaming?”
“They usually don’t interfere with my decisions.”
“That’s simply wonderful.” Yang Bing said enviously. After that, a thought suddenly came to his mind. “Wait a minute, if you were to take leave from school, will you not be in the same class as us anymore? Then will the four of us still be able to stay in a dorm together?”
Ji Zhiyao was slightly hesitant. “It’s definitely a no to being in the same class, about the dorm… We should be able to. We’re all on the same campus, I think we’ll remain as it is.”
Yang Bing sighed. “That’s great. I’m already used to this, I don’t want to change dorm mates.”
Ji Zhiyao smiled and turned to Wen Heng. “Old Wen, lend me your textbook for a look. I haven’t touched a single word on the pages this semester, examinations are coming in two months, my conscience hurts.”
Wen Heng nodded and stood up to go look for his textbook. Yang Bing pointed to himself in disbelief. “Old Ning is our class’s generally acknowledged most serious student, so I’ll let that go. But why are you borrowing Old Wen’s textbook instead of mine? Are you looking down on me?”
“Hey, you still have an idea of how things stand.”
“Ji Zhiyao you lawless bastard!”
Ji Zhiyao grinned. “You can’t hit me!”
“I should really show all your fan boys and girls online, what a mutt the so-called Yao-god is usually like.”
“Bullsh*t! I am obviously very handsome alright?”
Ji Zhiyao rolled his eyes at Yang Bing, Wen Heng walked over hugging a stack of books, Ji Zhiyao quickly took them from him after catching sight. “Thanks Old Wen, I’ll return them to you right after I’m done.”
“No hurry, take your time to read.”
Ji Zhiyao put the books away, then glanced at his wrist watch. “It’s already noon, time for lunch. I’ll buy you guys a meal?”
Yang Bing was pleased. “Sure. Are we going to the barbecue place right outside school or the newly-opened spicy crayfish place in school?”
Ji Zhiyao brought out his phone. “Let’s find a place that can deliver, it’s up to all of you what to eat. It’s safest to stay in the dorm, it’s too scary to go out. I don’t want to go out.”
Yang Bing went dazed.
Wen Heng lifted his lips into a smile, then named something that he wanted to eat; Ning Lichao stated his very quickly too, leaving only Yang Bing, he looked left and right, and realized that there was no room to turn the decision around and could only unwillingly ask for a delivery of spicy crayfish.
After waiting for more than 40 minutes, all the takeaway arrived, spicy crayfish, fried chicken and pizza covered the entire floor, the four of them settled on the floor and began eating right away.
After lunch, Ji Zhiyao tidied up the mess and put on a mask to head out and dump the trash, then climbed into his bed to take a nap.
Ordering takeaway and putting on a mask and cap before heading out, Ji Zhiyao kept up with it for a whole two weeks, before the curiosity of certain schoolmates completely subsided.
As such Ji Zhiyao was then able to go out normally for meals.
By this time, it was already winter, the others in the battleteam, including Mo Huaifeng had left S City for Sanya for their vacation.
The greatest consolation for Ji Zhiyao was that, after consulting the club, Yuan Wei converted his vacation into 80 thousand yuan of cash.
Ji Zhiyao’s life as a year two student officially settled into a routine, attending lessons, eating his meals and revising every day. When he was bored, he would game, turn on his livestream from time to time or video call Mo Huaifeng. It was considered the most relaxing period of time he had ever since he officially became a professional player.
On this afternoon, he was watching the newest video of competition cuts of foreign battleteams when he received Ji Qingge’s call.
Ji Qingge’s voice was a little hoarse and nasal. “Brother, could you come to my school to take me home?”
Ever since a young age, Ji Qingge was rarely coquettish and basically never had such requests, Ji Zhiyao’s brows instantly knitted into a frown as he stood up immediately to get a jacket. “What happened to you? You cried?”
Ji Qingge coughed a few times, it was rather heart wrenching. Ji Zhiyao grew more upset the longer he listened and rushed out as he grabbed his backpack. “Qingge, stop talking for now, I’m taking a taxi to your school now. Go to the water dispenser to get some warm water and it’s best if you can ask if your teachers have honey or pear water in their office, drink some to soothe your throat.”
Ji Qingge coughed again and after finally stopping, she said, “Brother, don’t be anxious. I’m running a fever now and my throat doesn’t feel too good. But I already took some medicine earlier. It’s been too cold at school these few days, I didn’t bring any thick clothes.”
“Don’t you know to get me to bring your clothes to you when you didn’t bring them? Where did your usual punch from ordering me around go?” Ji Zhiyao was already out of the school gates and reached out to flag down a taxi, upon hearing that, he could not hold back and chided. Ji Qingge quickly turned soft. “I’m not feeling well, stop nagging at me.”
Ji Zhiyao held it back at the end. “I’m going to hang up, lie on the table to rest for a while.”
“Alright.”
Ji Zhiyao hung up and rushed the taxi driver. “Brother, could you please go faster? My sister is sick, I’m in a rush to bring her to the hospital.”
“Look at how cold it is, the roads are very slippery, even if she’s sick, we still need to be careful!” The driver said, “I’ll try my best to go faster, but don’t rush me, okay?”
Ji Zhiyao nodded. “Thank you.”
The taxi gradually sped up. Ji Zhiyao sat in the backseat, his brows knitted into three pleats, making him seem like a completely different person from usual.
Ji Qingge was in Year Three now, she would be taking her national exams in another half a semester’s time, so she had been staying in school for this half of the year, only going home twice a month. When Ji Qingge called him last week she was still fine, when did she suddenly fall sick now?
No. If it was her throat that wasn’t feeling well, then she should have been unwell for a few days. He probably did not catch it during the previous call.
He had really neglected his duties as an older brother.
Ji Zhiyao was full of blame for himself at heart.
After a very long time, the driver stopped. Ji Zhiyao looked outside the window, they’d arrived outside Ji Qingge’s school. He quickly dug out some money from his bag and handed it to the driver, then alighted and ran into the campus.
He’d been here the last time when he helped her with her belongings, he knew which class she was in and also knew exactly where the Year Three building was.
Ji Zhiyao ran madly all the way, taking a total of five minutes from the school gate to the outside of Ji Qingge’s classroom. The students in the classroom were all doing self-revision, only Ji Qingge was lying on the table, coughing from time to time.
Ji Zhiyao did not knock the door but walked straight to Ji Qingge, his hand reaching onto her forehead.
Her forehead was very hot, he knew at one touch that she was running a fever.
Ji Qingge was roused from her sleep, when she saw Ji Zhiyao after opening her eyes, she smiled sweetly at him, calling out softly, “Brother, you’re here.”
Ji Zhiyao squatted down. “Pack some things that you would need, I’ll take you to the hospital.”
Ji Qingge nodded and picked up her bag to pack some things, the range of her movements very small. When she was done packing, Ji Zhiyao took her bag, both of them left the classroom together.
They headed to the office to inform Ji Qingge’s form teacher, then Ji Zhiyao took her to the municipal hospital’s emergency room directly.
The doctor examined her and said, “It’s a fever stemming from a cold, she might have caught a cold these few days, and some slight infection at the windpipe. I’ll let her get a drip to bring the fever down and another anti-infection. It’s best to take the anti-infection for three consecutive days, she’ll recover very quickly.”
