Chapter 131130: Group photo
Shen Guanshan's words made Gu Xing very happy.
"You want to be a mouthpiece?" He looked at the other party with a half-smile, "What benefits has Gu Pan given you?"
Shen Guanshan quickly waved his hand to explain, fearing that Gu Xing would misunderstand him, "I just don't want to see you two having conflicts..."
For her, Gu Xing and Gu Pan were both one of the most important people in her life in the past eighteen years.
The two brothers and sisters were quarreling, and Shen Guanshan just wanted to ease up and solve the problem quickly, otherwise it would be extremely embarrassing to be caught in the middle.
It is even more impossible to take sides.
Shen Guanshan knew that they were brothers and sisters whose blood was thicker than water. No matter how serious this little problem was, they would get back together sooner or later.
If she were to stand in the shoes of one of them and say bad things about the other side, she would really be ashamed of herself when the Gu family brothers and sisters reconciled!
"Actually, there wasn't much of a fight," Gu Xing showed off to Shen Guanshan. "Gu Pan apologized to me twice, and I reluctantly forgave her."
The expression on Shen Guanshan's face showed his disbelief.
Gu Xing immediately took out his phone and posted a screenshot of Gu Pan's apology that he had treasured for a long time.
"... So powerful?" Shen Guanshan's attitude made a 180-degree turn, and his tone was filled with excitement, "Send me a copy quickly!"
The two of them walked about a mile and arrived at the entrance of the casserole shop.
Next to the shop are the ruins of Zhenhai County including the Drum Tower and the People's Park. The surrounding buildings are antique and the scenery is picturesque.
This casserole restaurant usually has a lot of customers. Today is the weekend, and the upper and lower floors are already full.
After waiting for a few minutes to enter the store, I was assigned a seat by the window.
I ordered two portions of casserole and a pile of fried skewers, and the chatter of customers at the nearby table mingled with each other. The smell of hot casserole swirling up was full of fireworks.
Gu Xing picked up a bunch of grilled vegetable rice cakes, bit into the crispy shell, and then the soft and glutinous texture of the rice cakes spread in his mouth.
Shen Guanshan first put all the shrimps in the seafood casserole he ordered on a plate, and physically peeled them one by one to reveal the firm flesh of the shrimps.
Her hands-on skills are poor, and although her fingers are slender, they are not very flexible.
During the process of peeling the shrimp, the shrimp paste flows down the palm to the wrist, leaving a bright red winding mark on the white and tender skin, which is particularly eye-catching.
But Shen Guanshan didn't care and took out a paper towel and wiped it clean casually.
Gu Xing accidentally caught a glimpse of this scene and felt very pleased.
After previous exchanges, Shen Guanshan is now much more free and easy-going when alone with him.
At least she wasn't the girl who hesitated for a long time before even thinking about how to hold the burger.
Gu Xing scooped out two pieces of meat from his portion of the beef brisket casserole, let the rich soup soak into the rice, and casually asked, "How far have you learned from your college textbooks?"
"Differential calculus of multivariate functions in the third volume of numbers," Shen Guanshan picked up a chicken skewer, "Are you still reading it recently?"
"So fast..." Gu Xing praised, "I haven't even finished the first volume."
Shen Guanshan comforted him, "You haven't focused your energy on this. The time before going to bed is definitely not enough."
"No, no, no, it's mainly a matter of talent," Gu Xing swallowed the soft beef in his mouth and admitted frankly, "My understanding is too poor."
He knew that he was definitely not a genius in the field of mathematics.
I have been studying for the Mathematical Olympiad since elementary school. I have tried my best to get only one piece of national silver.
At that time, Gu Xing still held the idea that "university courses and Mathematical Olympiad competitions are completely different" and felt that he still had room for improvement.
He was halfway through the first textbook and was convinced that this idea was right.
Math competitions are really different from college courses.
But don’t even think about turning over the salted fish.
Gu Xing couldn't understand the teaching materials at all!
What are they talking about?
As the saying goes, be afraid of comparison in everything.
On the other hand, Shen Guanshan came into contact with the Olympiad later than Gu Xing. He has dominated the competition since the Hua Luogeng Cup and was able to join the provincial team as a freshman in high school.
According to fantasy novels, he is completely invincible at the same level.
Gu Xing recognized the fact.
He is really not suitable for taking the path of mathematics.
One cannot generalize between people.
"I have asked many senior students before. In my situation, after graduating from an undergraduate degree, you can study computer science or finance as a graduate student. If you have a foundation in mathematics, it will be better. The job prospects are also good, but you will have to take up a lot of professional courses. When the time comes, It will be quite tiring..."
Gu Xing talked about his future plans with confusion in his eyes.
Standing on a forked road in life, he didn't know which way to go.
The fear and uneasiness caused by the uncertainty about future life linger in my heart all the time.
If life is rich, Gu Xing can do whatever he likes.
But his family conditions are very average.
The path of life has a very low margin for error, and one walks on thin ice.
What's even worse is that there is not much time left for him to choose.
When school starts in early September at the latest, you will have to make a decision.
Shen Guanshan stared at Gu Xing with serious concentration.
In her impression, Gu Xing had always been sunny, cheerful and positive, but now he showed obvious negative emotions.
This made Shen Guanshan very uncomfortable.
She chose to change the topic, "My alliance is already platinum, is the level okay?"
When it came to games, Gu Xing finally became interested, "Just use Qian Jue?"
"Yes, no one banned me. I can play all over the place," Shen Guanshan picked up a crab leg from the casserole, "Sometimes it feels quite strange."
Gu Xing was very experienced in this and explained to her, "It's easy to understand. First, Kindred has been nerfed in the previous versions, so its strength is not that high, and there are very few platinum-level players who use Kindred, just like Bing. Bird and Leopard Girl are the same. Players with high proficiency have to go up to the master level.”
These heroes are notoriously difficult to pick up.
Players either know nothing about it and just want to have fun. Their ranking is very low and they basically won’t use it in ranking.
Those who can really get started will have to play hundreds or even thousands of games. If they master the heroes thoroughly, the level will naturally not be lowered.
As a result, the appearance rate of several heroes in the middle and low tiers is quite dismal!
"As long as I ban Praying Mantis, I will be very efficient in getting points... Its damage burst is too exaggerated. Evenly developed and upgraded to level 6, face jumping is a set of instant kills when meeting in the jungle." Shen Guanshan asked humbly, "Do you think Qian Jue will be better than Qian Jue?" Control mark, is there anything else worth noting? ”
She decided to practice this role after watching Gu Xing use Qian Jue to kill everyone in the arena.
The other party's Qian Jue proficiency is recognized in the professional circle as being strong, and Shen Guanshan feels that he can learn a lot of skills from him.
Gu Xing thought for a moment before answering, "You have to understand the hero's strong period. Characters such as centaurs, blind monks, and mantises will have greatly enhanced combat effectiveness at level six. This is not the case for Qian Jue. The ultimate attack will attack them. The increase in combat power is very small.”
R [Sheep Spirit Breathing] is more of a team battle protection function.
One-on-one combat is ineffective.
"So if you want to invade, you have to do it before the opponent reaches level 6. The so-called use your strengths to avoid weaknesses... During that time, Kindred had a range advantage compared to melee heroes. His Q skill can be used to pull after repeated horizontal jumps. Even if he can't kill the opponent, It can also suppress the blood volume to counter the jungle! ”
Gu Xing talked eloquently.
Shen Guanshan didn't bother to taste the steaming casserole, his eyes were fixed on Gu Xing.
When he mentioned the fields he was good at, he got rid of the worries of reality and turned back into the cheerful and lively eighteen-year-old boy.
Shen Guanshan recalled what happened when he ran to Shanghai alone to watch the game last time.
She was concentrating when she was talking about several series, but later she realized that Gu Xing had been staring at her.
Now she was looking at Gu Xing who was talking about alliance skills.
Is this a polar reversal?
Shen Guanshan's mind wandered, and he suddenly thought of something.
That moment, exactly this moment.
Gu Xing eloquently mentioned a few details about Qian Jue, but when he saw Shen Guanshan staring at him, he stopped talking and urged her to eat quickly.
The casserole shop is very noisy, and there are noisy people around, so it is not a good place to chat.
In addition, the lunch rush hour has not yet passed, and there are still customers waiting for tables outside the shop.
The two of them didn't waste any time, and ran to the sidewalk after finishing the casserole and fried skewers.
"Let's go to the nearby park first. It's too sunny at the Drum Tower now..." Gu Xing suggested.
At noon in August, the sun is very scorching. There is a wide square next to the Drum Tower. If you run across it, you are asking for trouble.
But when I walked into the park, I realized that relying on the branches and leaves of trees was of little use.
The sun no longer shines directly on the body, but the feeling of humidity and high temperature is always surrounding the surroundings, making people breathless.
There were only a few energetic children still chasing and playing in the park.
There is an artificial lake of reasonable size in the People's Park. The two of them walked around the lake. Gu Xing slowed down slightly to ensure that his friend could keep up.
Shen Guanshan glanced down.
Even though she is considered tall among women, she is still more than ten centimeters shorter than Gu Xing, and her legs are naturally shorter.
Therefore, the distance they take in one step is also different.
Shen Guanshan stepped forward without hesitation, striving to follow Gu every step and follow every step in a true sense.
Gu Xing didn't take more than two steps before he discovered the other person's little thoughts.
The corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he shortened his steps and tried to keep in line with Shen Guanshan.
The two of them were walking in a square formation at the sports meeting, looking well-coordinated.
After walking around the lake for a week, Gu Xing finally stopped under the shade of a tree and opened his backpack, "Want to drink yogurt?"
Shen Guanshan's eyes lit up, and naturally he had no reason to refuse.
The two stood side by side under the tree, sipping yogurt and watching the children playing around. Their high-pitched voices were blocked by the trees and the lake, and they no longer sounded so harsh.
Gu Xing always wanted to turn his head and peek at what Shen Guanshan was doing, but he didn't want to turn his head blatantly.
Fortunately, the naughty children covered him and ran noisily to the side of Shen Guanshan.
Gu Xing pretended to look at the child, turned his head and looked over, observing his friend's movements with his peripheral vision.
As a result, she found that Shen Guanshan was also peeking at herself.
After being seen, she panicked and dodged subconsciously at first, but in the end her obsession overcame her inner timidity and she chose to look straight at him.
During this period, his eyes were moving and his eyes were lively.
Looking at each other, Gu Xing turned his attention and asked the question first, "Why are you looking at me?"
Shen Guanshan thought for a moment and explained his behavior, "I was wondering how many more times we can drink yogurt together."
This question seems a bit childish.
"As many times as you like!" Gu Xing's smile was as bright as the summer sunshine outside the shade of the trees.
When Shen Guanshan witnessed this scene, her heart beat violently involuntarily, and she wanted to continue questioning Gu Xing.
Finally he stopped talking.
She knew that Gu Xing was making a decision at a critical crossroads in his life, and there would be a more serious playoff game soon.
The timing was not right.
If I cross that ambiguous boundary at this time, it will only increase Gu Xingtu's burden!
Shen Guanshan forcibly controlled the turbulence in his heart.
It turns out that she can't hide her thoughts at all, and her emotions are completely written on her face.
Gu Xing had a panoramic view of Shen Guanshan's changes in demeanor.
Although I have never had any relationship experience before, I am not a fool.
During this period of contact, he was sure that he had a good impression of Shen Guanshan.
Shen Guanshan is probably the same.
Only one layer of window paper remained unpierced on both sides.
Gu Xing has not made up his mind.
Many people of the same age fall in love as long as they meet each other, and it's a lively affair.
But he can't.
Gu Xing hasn't even decided on his future choice yet. Is it possible that he wants to drag Shen Guanshan with him?
What's more, whether he continues to play professional e-sports or goes to school, he will definitely stay in Shanghai for a few years.
And Shen Guanshan is at Peking University, so if the two of them really fell in love, they would have to be apart for a long time.
As the saying goes, dogs don’t even talk about long-distance relationships!
Even if Gu Xing has never found a partner, he can think of countless shortcomings in a different place just by thinking about it.
He was not sure whether he and Shen Guanshan could make it to the end, and now there was a war between heaven and man in his heart.
Looking into the clear eyes of Shenguan Mountain, the water ripples in them.
Gu Xing couldn't tell if it was the reflection of the lake around him, and he almost lost his defense line when he was immersed in it.
Give me another half month...
He gave himself an ultimatum.
Seeing that Shen Guanshan had also adjusted his mood, the two threw the yogurt box into the trash can and set off for the Drum Tower.
The attractions are free, but the Drum Tower lacks lighting during the day and is obviously not as charming as it is at night.
But the good thing is that there aren't many tourists nearby.
Not everyone is like them, braving the temperature of more than 30 degrees and running to Drum Tower Square under the scorching sun.
"Do you want to take a photo together?" Gu Xing thought that the open space and the scenery were nice. "I remember that we haven't taken a photo alone yet?"
Gu Pan usually goes out with them, and the group photo is also a group of three.
Gu Xing was quite happy to finally have a chance to get rid of his sister this time.
Shen Guanshan thought of the treasured photo of the members of CMO Town.
She always regarded that photo as a photo of herself and Gu Xing, and just ignored the other three classmates including Ding Ran.
Now the other party's request was exactly what she wanted, and she nodded in agreement.
Gu Xing remembered that his old smartphone was not good at taking pictures, "Use yours, it has higher pixels..."
Shen Guanshan took out his mobile phone from his backpack.
Gu Xing took it naturally and went to the scattered tourists in the square for help - Shen Guanshan was a social phobic, so if she was asked to chat with strangers, she probably wouldn't be able to hold it in for a long time, so he might as well go on his own.
It was just a matter of asking someone to take a photo, and Gu Xing didn’t even need any skills.
Smile, speak softly, and add some polite words.
It’s a simple task, and not many people would refuse.
Shen Guanshan is still thinking about what posture to pose when taking a group photo.
Originally, she didn't like to face the camera, and she always showed a stiff smile during the few times she took pictures.
But Shen Guanshan thought that this was his first real photo with Gu Xing, so he couldn't be too cautious.
When Gu Xing came back to her side, she still hadn't figured out the best answer, so she could only turn her head and ask for help, "Is Scissorhands too old-fashioned?"
Sensing what Shen Guanshan was struggling with, Gu Xing suppressed a smile and replied, "How about a thumbs up?"
Shen Guanshan simulated it in his mind, turning his back to Zhenhai Tower with his crush, and giving a thumbs up to the camera seriously...
Who would pose for a photo like this?
"Let's go with Scissorhands." She made a wise choice.
The tourist who helped ensured that the two people and the Zhenhai Drum Tower could be included in the picture, and then shouted the 321 countdown.
Shen Guanshan raised his hand to his face, making a scissor hand gesture at an angle while looking at Gu Xing, smiling brightly from the bottom of his heart.
"Thank you..." Gu Xing took the phone back and looked at the effect of the group photo. He was immediately pleasantly surprised, "The effect is not bad!"
Shen Guanshan came to his side and looked at the screen curiously.
In the photo, the two people look at each other in tacit understanding, and the sunshine cannot match their bright smiles. The Zhenhai Drum Tower behind them bears some of the accumulation of years.
Shen Guanshan was completely subjective and not objective, but he could see a hint of affection in their gazes.
She cheered inwardly.
After sending the photo, I was satisfied when Gu Xing finished downloading it.
"Where should we go next? The class reunion doesn't start until six o'clock." Shen Guanshan found that there were still more than three hours of free time.
The scattered clouds that were originally floating in the sky disappeared at this moment, losing the most direct and effective barrier protection. The sun mercilessly poured over-enthusiastic warmth towards the earth.
Gu Xing saw that her cheeks were flushed and her black hair at the temples was wet with sweat and stuck to her snow-white skin. He quickly took out a tissue from his bag and handed it over.
I brought an umbrella myself, but that thing only protects me from rain and does not provide shade.
The only parasol in the house was bought at a low price by Gu Pan, and of course she is using it.
Now that the sunlight is too intense, Gu Xing feels that outdoor activities are simply torture. "Why don't you go home and stay?"
Shen Guanshan usually doesn't pay much attention to things like sun protection, and he doesn't have a parasol at home. At this time, he can only hold on and simply wipe the sweat off his face, "There is nothing to do when I go home..."
She suddenly had an idea, "How about going to an Internet cafe?"
"Ah?!" Gu Xing didn't expect this word to come out of Shenguan Pass, "Are you serious?"
"Let's go, I remember the name of the store you often went to was Happy Hour," Shen Guanshan was eager to try, "I have never been to an Internet cafe in my life, take me there to learn more!"
The Internet cafe is not far from here, you can get there in a few minutes' walk.
Gu Xing couldn't defeat her and couldn't think of a better solution.
The home computer is not very useful, so the Shen family only has one machine.
In desperation, Gu Xing could only take Shen Guanshan straight to the happy hour.
A familiar store appeared in front of him. Gu Xing looked at the sign that said "Happy Hour is About to Begin", and all he could think about was the chubby wine barrel.
As soon as he entered the door, Shen Guanshan beside him let out a long sigh of relief.
The Internet cafe's air conditioner is turned on at full blast, making it feel like a world of ice and fire compared to the outside.
Gu Xing felt that goosebumps were popping up on his forearms.
The person guarding the front desk is an acquaintance - a young network administrator whom I met when we were working together, and I remember him as a piggy.
Gu Xing was glad that he had brought his ID card, put it on the counter and said in as low a voice as possible that he wanted to get on the plane.
2016 was the peak period of League of Legends in China. To say that it occupies half of the Internet cafes is to look down upon it.
Among the huge group of players, Gu Xing doubted that anyone would recognize him.
He came back for a vacation, and he didn't want to be watched like a precious animal, so he tried to keep a low profile.
The young network administrator raised his head and saw Gu Xing, and immediately wanted to scream.
Then when he saw Gu Xingbi's silence gesture, he forced himself to lower his voice.
"Virtue?" the network administrator was extremely excited, "Long time no see!"
Before Gu Xing could speak, he kept talking.
"I never dreamed that LPL stars would appear in this small Internet cafe!"
"I told other customers at the time, and they still didn't believe it..."
The last picture of the network administrator said, "Brother Xing, I am your fan now!"
Gu Xing's body trembled at these words, "Don't you like the factory director?"
"I only liked you after watching your game against the factory director. You were really tough!"
The answer that the network management should give is to make excuses for themselves, "Besides, no one stipulates that you can only like one professional player, just like I like Yui Aragaki and IU at the same time."
Gu Xing wanted to say that the two actresses were of different nationalities, and one was mainly singing and the other was acting, so they were obviously equal...
But he didn't dwell on the issue anymore.
After leaving a signature and checking in with Shen Guanshan, Gu Xing walked inside.
"Brother Xing gave you a bottle of Coke..." The network administrator turned around and took down a bottle of Pepsi from the shelf.
When Gu Xing saw the blue and white icon, he immediately jumped back.
"I'm not thirsty now," he looked at Shen Guanshan, "Do you want it?"
Shen Guanshan is not picky about the brand of Coke.
But she firmly stood on the same side as Gu Xing!
The two did not accept the coke and found a remote corner in the Internet cafe.
Fortunately, the customers who came online were focused on the computer and did not notice Gu Xing.
"This Internet cafe is quite interesting. From brass to king, everything has voice broadcasts..."
Gu Xing turned on the machine and chatted with Shen Guanshan.
Sure enough, Shen Guanshan immediately discovered the blind spot, "Didn't Ding Ran get tortured every day?"
Gu Xing almost stopped dead when he thought of the audience's voice and Ding Ran's reaction when the Great Master Baiyin was broadcast.
After logging into the game, Gu Xing looked calm this time.
His Chinese server account has been dormant for a long time, and now it is just a piece of garbage.
This would not be noticeable in an Internet cafe.
"Hurry up and show me Qianjue..."
Gu Xingyan followed his advice and started the qualifying match, preparing to find four lucky people and five unlucky ones.
It was a weekend afternoon, and there were so many players in the first area that we only had to wait two minutes to be queued for a match.
When pre-selecting Qian Jue, Gu Xing's ID successfully attracted the attention of four teammates.
All of a sudden, the chat channel was filled with all kinds of rainbow farts and messages asking for friend status!
Gu Xing simply replied with two sentences, stating that he would add friends after the game was over, and then adjusted the runes and went to chat with Shen Guanshan.
It wasn't until the loading screen appeared that he realized that the ID of the opposite jungler Leopard Girl looked familiar.
Ice leopard and pear flower ask the sky.
The abbreviation is called Bingfan.
The playoffs will start soon.
