Chapter 37

Not broadcasting for a week in a row, Xu Beifang's fans all noticed the anomaly.

After all, since his first live stream, except for the few days when the computer was being transported, Xu Beifang always broadcasted from before 9 am every day until around 11 pm. Unless there were schoolwork or other things, he would sit in front of the computer playing ladder or practicing shooting.

It's understandable to have temporary things, but without any notification, this made them feel a bit worried in their hearts.

Could it be that he has been hit hard recently and chose to give up?

From a C-tier player to a top-tier random king, Xu Beifang's path was watched by them.

This path also encountered many setbacks, the biggest of which was age.

They had seen many teams ask about Little Xu's age in the live stream, and in the end, it was often a sigh that he was older, or there was no follow-up.

They comforted themselves in their hearts, "There will be better teams in the future," but it was inevitable that they would feel lost.

As fans, it's like this, what about Little Xu's own feelings? I'm afraid it's even harder to accept.

Giving up on something only takes a thought. And persisting in something requires endless effort.

Can Little Xu really persist?

"Finally chose to compromise... sigh, this is the naked reality. For a player without talent, the price of wanting to realize his dream is too high and too difficult."

"I watched Beifang go from C to a random king, and also practiced shooting and climbed the ranks every day, and already reached A, but Beifang chose to give up. How can I persist?"

"Isn't it? I think Little Xu is already slightly talented, working hard day and night, but can't even touch the threshold of professional, it's too hard to accept."

The fans were extremely painful, and really didn't want a genius teenager to fall halfway like this.

There were also quite a few people ridiculing under Xu Beifang's dynamic:

"Sure enough, he couldn't persist. I guessed long ago that this person was showing off. Now that he hasn't made money, he went directly to the factory to screw screws, haha."

"Just an ordinary person, but wants to go professional. The life of a servant, the heart of a young master."

Xu Beifang's fans soon refuted below:

"Little Xu couldn't go professional, is it possible that any of you are pro players?"

"One by one, barking loudly. That day, they were all one-tapped by Little Xu in a duel. If your strength was as strong as your mouth, it would be fine."

Xu Beifang's comment section soon started arguing. Both sides stuck to their own opinions and outputted frantically, but in the end, the black fans had stronger combat power and won. Since Little Xu turned off the broadcast, he hadn't had any info reply, which made the fans have no confidence.

"Little Xu stopped playing?" After work, Leon Kai was broadcasting to relax for a while, when he saw viewers in the mobile phone barrage brushing this info.

He frowned, not daring to believe this fact: "Lying, right! Little Xu, that kind of live streaming robot, wouldn't stop playing?"

【Already haven't broadcasted for a week, and there's no news. Long-necked big brother, do you have Little Xu's contact info?】

"Can't be!" Leon Kai opened Bilibili. Found Xu Beifang's account and found that he wasn't broadcasting.

Really stopped broadcasting...

Leon Kai felt a bit lost. This genius teenager he was very optimistic about finally left their sight in such an abrupt form. But he also felt it was very normal, after all, CS: GO professional is too hard to walk.

"What a pity. Little Xu is one of the most hardworking people among the pro players I've seen. Now that he chose to give up, it's actually understandable." Leon Kai answered the water friend's question, "I don't have his contact info here. I'll ask Tie Dan on 5E. They have a good relationship, he should know something."

Leon Kai hadn't started the game yet. He searched on the 5E friend page and found that Danking was in the game, and the score was 15:11.

After waiting for a while, Danking's status changed to: Online.

Leon Kai directly pulled him into the room.

"Leon Kai, why are you looking for me to duo queue suddenly today?" Just won a game, Danking was in a good mood, and as soon as he came in, he started teasing.

Leon Kai also kept it short: "My water friend just told me that Little Xu retired from the internet. Do you have his contact info? Ask about the situation."

"What stuff? Xu Beifang retired from the internet?" Danking jumped off the e-sports chair, "Kai Ge, are you playing with me?"

Leon Kai's tone was calm: "I'm not joking."

"I'll call."

Xu Beifang was packing his personal items. The ticket to Modu tomorrow had already been bought. The day after tomorrow, the VP main force would arrive in Modu. As a newcomer and host, he'd better not let the others in the team wait for him.

And, he was actually quite looking forward to seeing these legendary VP players, looking forward to starting offline training with them, looking forward to—starting his first official match with them!

The core goal Xu Beifang had since his rebirth was finally about to be realized. Thinking of this, his mood was a bit excited, even feeling unreal.

Beep!

The mobile phone ringtone rang from the direction of the bedside table.

Whose phone?

Xu Beifang was a bit confused. After all, he wasn't good at socializing on weekdays, and the few friends in his life didn't need phone calls to communicate in such a hurry.

As soon as he picked up the phone, he saw the big words 'Tie Dan'.

"Danking, what's wrong? Why call me suddenly?"

"You retired from the internet?" Danking's voice came from the phone.

"What ghost?"

"Then why haven't you broadcasted recently?"

Xu Beifang considered for a long time before organizing his words: "... Work reasons."

He wasn't easy to explain. Now telling Danking directly that he joined VP, he wouldn't believe it much. After all, he was still climbing the ranks on FACEIT a week ago.

The silence on the other side made Danking feel even more uncomfortable. His brother didn't persist after all.

He considered for a while, just wanted to say something, then turned off the microphone on the computer, cut off Leon Kai who was eavesdropping, walked into the toilet, and said: "If it really doesn't work, I won't play this youth training either. Let's form a team ourselves to play brother CS. This youth training is not comfortable anyway."

Danking's personality actually has a big problem. In the first week of youth training, he smashed his peripherals because of a quarrel with teammates. Although there was coordination from the youth training coach, there had always been friction with teammates because Danking always thought his teammates were a bit too poor.

"Don't, don't, don't! I quite like my job for now." Xu Beifang hurriedly replied. Hearing this from Danking, he was actually quite moved. After all, Danking was already a youth training player, and being willing to come out to play brother CS with him was really not easy.

If there's a chance in the future, I must bring you to get a sticker... Xu Beifang secretly swore in his heart.

Even if I can't get it, I'll draw an egg under my ID.

Refused by Xu Beifang, Danking calmed down and found that such a future was too difficult. He knew Xu Beifang was to keep himself from being affected.

"Then what about your live stream? Not doing it? Didn't we agree that I shine on CS: GO, and you save the country by live streaming now? Your fans found me here, I have to give them feedback." Danking asked.

"Just some things at work recently, it will be fine after this period of time, it's not retiring from the internet."

Work is so busy, it must not be a good job... Danking slandered in his heart.

No, absolutely can't let Beifang fall like this. Must find a way to arouse his passion for CS: GO.

Various messy things like beauty traps, seven captures of Meng Huo, etc., flashed through Danking's mind.

Finally, he shook his head and issued an invitation to the phone: "Beifang, IEM Shanghai station is about to start soon. I have a few tickets here. Come to Shanghai to watch the match, I'll treat you to hot pot!"

The feelings of a teenager are sincere. Xu Beifang felt Danking's sincerity.

"Okay, but no need to prepare tickets. I am an invited person, no need for tickets."

"That's okay, it's a deal to meet offline, don't stand me up."

"Definitely won't."
