Chapter 17: Untying Ye Qiu’s Heart Knot

glory! !
These two big words flashed across the screen. These are two big words that every Honor player is extremely familiar with.

Glory represents victory.

But at this moment, these two words represent more than just a victory in a game, they also mean the birth of a champion.

In the first season of the Glory League, the first champion in the history of the Glory Professional League – Team Excellent Era!
Amid the cheers and applause of tens of thousands of spectators, Su Muqiu stood on the honor podium and held high in both hands the honor championship trophy wrapped in 24K pure gold.

This trophy should have been lifted by him and Ye Qiu together, but after the game, Ye Qiu just slipped away.

He appeared quietly and left quietly, just like he did in every other game. Even when he won the championship he had longed for, he never showed up in front of the media.

Who is Ye Qiu?

What does he look like?
Is it because your face is covered with sores that you are ashamed to see others?
This was a topic that accompanied the entire season, and there was still no answer until the end of the season.

Even in the interview after winning the championship, when faced with the reporter’s question, “Why Ye Qiu never shows his face?”, Tao Xuan remained silent on the issue as usual.

However, Su Muqiu, who was sitting next to Tao Xuan, saw a flash of displeasure in Tao Xuan’s smiling face.

Yes, he has never mentioned to anyone why Ye Qiu was unwilling to show up, because he himself didn’t know why Ye Qiu was unwilling to show up.

When signing the contract with Ye Qiu, Ye Qiu had no objection to all the options in the contract except for one point, which was to add in the contract that he would not participate in any commercial activities and would not show his face in front of the media.

At that time, Su Muqiu was still lying in the hospital, and Ye Qiu had to take the lead in the Excellent Era team. Tao Xuan did not ask any further questions and just let Ye Qiu do whatever he wanted, as long as Excellent Era’s performance was good.

However, as the performance of the Excellent Era team continued to improve, it alternately topped the standings with the star team Royal Style team, and entered the playoffs, the semifinals, and the finals as the second place. Tao Xuan began to regret why he did not ask Ye Qiu clearly why he did not show his face.

After Excellent Era made it to the playoffs, endorsement offers began to come to them.

Since Ye Qiu doesn’t accept commercial opportunities, he naturally can’t accept endorsements.

You know, he has been managing Ye Qiu’s One Autumn Leaf this season. All of Jia Shi’s resources are concentrated on One Autumn Leaf, making One Autumn Leaf the number one expert in Glory.

Even though Lu Liang of the Royal Wind Team relied on the god-level account [Sweeping the Floor and Burning Incense] and his combat power was not inferior to Ye Qiu at all, he also had a way to operate it. It was said that Lu Liang’s strength was due to the strength of his account. If it weren’t for the fact that the attributes of [Sweeping the Floor and Burning Incense] far exceeded those of [One Autumn Leaf], Lu Liang would not be able to beat Ye Qiu at all.

Wait, Tao Xuan has done a lot of similar operations.

But now, with Excellent Era defeating the Royal Style team to win the championship, One Autumn Leaf’s popularity has skyrocketed, Excellent Era’s popularity has skyrocketed, and various businesses have come knocking on the door. It’s the time to make a fortune, but he finds out that the god-level character he created is actually a miser who doesn’t spend a penny!
When they had nothing before, Tao Xuan didn’t care whether Ye Qiulu showed his face or not.

But now, looking at the endorsement contracts worth hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars in front of him, he can only stare blankly.

It feels like a beautiful girl is lying on your bed, only to find out that you are a eunuch.

Although he felt a little unhappy, Excellent Era had just won the championship and Tao Xuan was still excited, so he did not show his dissatisfaction with Ye Qiu.

However, when he faced the reporters, Su Muqiu still caught a flash of gloom in his eyes.

“It seems like it’s time to talk to Ye Qiu.”

Su Muqiu said secretly in his heart.

He knew Ye Qiu’s true identity.

Logically speaking, his original name is Ye Xiu, and Ye Qiu is his younger brother.

Ye Qiu’s family background is very prominent, it is the kind of super battleship that can land military, business and politics people.

The background is purple-red.

So Ye Qiu doesn’t care about money at all.

But not everyone in the world has a family background like Ye Qiu. Ye Qiu may not care about money, but other people do. Tao Xuan is just a small Internet cafe owner, and he still owes the bank 200 million.

As for the other members of the team, except Wu Xuefeng who is a second-generation rich man, Xia Ming, Qin Tianran, Yin Xiong, Xue Mingkai and others, they all want to get a high salary, make their families proud of them, and show their relatives and friends that playing games is not completely a waste of time, and that they can still have a promising future and make a lot of money.

If Ye Qiu could be a commercial spokesperson, Excellent Era’s popularity would surely soar, and Qin Tianran, Xia Ming and others would naturally be able to enjoy the benefits as well. Getting a few more endorsements would also be a considerable income.

Su Muqiu didn’t care. He knew that he would make a lot of money in the future.

But the other members of the team are all teammates and good friends in private, so we can’t help but consider them.

After the post-match interview, Su Muqiu found Ye Qiu immediately. He planned to help Ye Qiu resolve his worries.

I saw Ye Qiu sitting alone on the railing by the road, smoking a cigarette.

At this time, Ye Qiu had just learned to smoke and was not addicted to it.

I only smoke one when I feel upset.

“Why are you smoking again? Are you still worried about winning the championship?” Su Muqiu’s voice sounded behind Ye Qiu.

Ye Qiu didn’t answer, but asked: “How does it feel to celebrate after winning the championship?”

Su Muqiu was stunned for a moment, wondering what it felt like to celebrate and why she should leave?

“Excited. Seeing the team members so excited makes me even more excited.” Su Muqiu said.

Ye Qiu took a deep puff of the cigarette, then slowly exhaled, and then said: “I really want to experience it once!”

“Then why did you leave?” Su Muqiu asked.

Ye Qiu looked back at Su Muqiu and continued smoking.

After taking several puffs, he slowly said, “Do you know that your parents have arranged everything for you since you were a child? From getting up in the morning, going to school, going home from school, and going to bed, basically your entire day is arranged. You are not allowed to play games or hang out with friends. You are even told which elementary school, junior high school, high school, and college you go to, what you do after graduation, what kind of wife you marry, what kind of job you do, what major you study, what interest classes you take, everything is arranged. Do you know what it’s like to live a life with no autonomy at all?”

After hearing Ye Qiu’s words, Su Muqiu fell silent.

He knew Ye Qiu’s family background, so he naturally knew that with a family background like Ye Qiu’s, everything must have been arranged by his parents since he was a child.

For Ye Qiu, this kind of arranged life must be very unpleasant.

Especially during his rebellious period, Ye Qiu didn’t want to stay at home for a moment. He wanted to escape from this cage-like home and his father who was like the Five Finger Mountain.

However, when Su Muqiu was nine years old, both his parents died in a car accident.

For a child who lost his parents at a young age, what a luxury it is to be controlled by his parents?

In Ye Qiu’s eyes, parental discipline is a cage, but to him, parental discipline is happiness that he could never ask for.

How he wishes his parents could discipline him more. Even if he doesn’t have any freedom, as long as his parents are there, it will be fine.

Su Muqiu glanced at Ye Qiu and sighed deeply.

“Let me tell you a story.”

　I wish you all a happy National Day!!!

It’s a new month, please support me with your monthly pass!!!
