Strangely enough, if Qin Chunxiao called Fu Biyang “Hatching Chicken,” Fu Biyang wouldn’t get angry. At most, he would reply, “You husky.” However, if anyone else called him that, he would easily become enraged.

This was probably a double standard at play.

Among the H Island youth team, only Fu Biyang had the height and physical fitness to compare with Qiao Mingming. However, he alone couldn’t guard the net against the offensive power of the Y Province youth team.

After the fight, Fu Biyang went all out and focused more on offense. He constantly requested the ball from the setter, scoring points with strong spikes and fast breaks.

Li Ling frowned and commented, “The setter is still not effective. Wouldn’t it be better to attack the ball just now? This way, Fu Biyang will have to bear too much pressure on the offensive end.”

Qin Chunxiao made an apt evaluation, saying, “Not every setter is skilled in attacking. The setter for H Island has excellent passing skills. Regardless of whether the ball comes from the first pass or the libero, it can be adjusted to a height that is convenient for Fu Biyang to attack.”

In other competitions, such passing skills would already be considered top-notch, but the Y Province youth team was formidable. They were now trading blows with each other, naturally raising expectations for the H Island youth team to have another player who can attack.

This was the drawback of a single-core team. Since Fu Biyang joined the U21 team, his statistics had always been impressive, but advancing to the quarterfinals was very difficult because he carried the team’s workload and endured the most pressure.

On Qin Chunxiao’s side, the ball distribution was divided among him, Li Ling, Mo Lin, and Li Xiaoping in different proportions. Everyone had the opportunity to play and cooperate with each other. Their individual statistics might not be impressive, but they could actually win games.

After all, volleyball was a team sport.

At this moment, H Island called for substitutions, and a secondary attacker in his early 1.80s stepped onto the field. He began to exploit the defensive loopholes of the Y Province youth team to supplement the attack. He didn’t take many shots, but his scoring efficiency was commendable.

As the G Province youth team watched the game unfold, they realized how challenging it was to play against these two teams. Seeing them battle it out, they understood the firepower they were up against.

Zhou Ziming couldn’t believe it and exclaimed, “How did we manage to stop them?”

Did they block the balls?

Liu Kairui seemed to remember something. He looked at Qin Chunxiao, extended his hand, and poked Zhou Ziming’s waist, saying, “Hey, if you don’t meet expectations, you really won’t have a future.”

The ability to defeat these two teams came from the difficult-to-handle dual-core offense of Li Ling and Qin Chunxiao, as well as their strong defense at the net and in the back row. Additionally, Li Xiaoping, who was becoming more agile, and Mo Lin, who excelled in attacking and passing, played a supporting role, elevating the strength of the G Province youth team to a new level this year.

However, as athletes, Liu Kairui and Zhou Ziming did not seem to have an indispensable status in the team.

If they could recognize this, it would already be a form of progress.

Sensing Liu Kairui’s gaze, Qin Chunxiao nodded at him. Liu Kairui felt an inexplicable pressure but was eager to prove himself once again.

At that moment, Qin Chunxiao took out an earphone, placed it in his ear, opened the music app on his phone, and started playing the classic song “California Dream” from the movie “Chongqing Forest.”

Accompanied by the rhythm of the music, he saw Fu Biyang jump high, his slender arms glistening with sweat, reflecting a crystal-like light under the spotlight. Qiao Mingming angrily roared and hit the volleyball with his palm. The confrontation in the air suddenly appeared in slow motion.

Fu Biyang successfully defended the spike, and from the corner of Qin Chunxiao’s eye, he noticed Newton mouthing “painting star” to Jiang Xiaohai.

Qin Chunxiao saw Newton make this gesture twice in the game.

Some spectators observed the boy’s fingers tapping along with the music on the railing and murmured to themselves in confusion, “Can he watch the game while listening to music?”

Mei Xuandong responded effortlessly, “Yes, he uses his eyes to observe the players’ movements, not his ears. Can you use your ears to see things?”

Audience member: “Of course not, everyone uses their eyes to see.”

Mei Xuandong: “Exactly. By occupying his ears with music, he can avoid being distracted by other sounds and perhaps focus more with his eyes.”

At this moment, Qiao Mingming made a spike, and the fans cheered. The audience asked loudly, “Do you have experience?”

Mei Xuandong also took off his mask, and replied loudly: “Yes!”

Qin Chunxiao heard the two people’s loud voices, took off the earphones and looked back at them, Mei Xuandong folded his hands in embarrassment and apologized to him, Qin Chunxiao smiled at him, showing a pair of canine teeth, and then went on to watch the game.

That smile was so bright that Mei Xuandong couldn’t help but feel better. He adjusted his sitting posture, rubbed his fingertips unconsciously on his cuffs, and felt shy again when he realized it.

He had been in the entertainment industry for several years, but he was not shocked by someone else’s smile until today.

Team Qin’s smile was as good as his football skills.

Mei Xuandong bought a 50 yuan ticket this time, and Qin Chunxiao stood in the front row closest to the arena, with a distance of 4.9 meters between them.

Qin Chunxiao lay on the railing drinking sports drinks and listening to music. Mei Xuandong’s eyes lingered on the ball and him, thinking that his shaking his head was very interesting.

The countdown ticked away at moments they couldn’t see, eventually stopping at 719:45:27.

After the game, the H Island youth team lost the ball. Fu Biyang covered his head with a towel, and Qin Chunxiao sat on the railing, putting his hands to his mouth: “Hey!”

Fu Biyang was startled, and when he looked up, he saw Qin Chunxiao waving his thumb at him.

“Fu Xiaoji, this match was well guarded!”

Fu Biyang raised his fist at him: “Don’t call me Fu Xiaoji, Qin Husky!”

The referee pointed at Qin Chunxiao: “You are not allowed to sit on the railing, what about you, Qin Chunxiao!”

Qin Chunxiao laughed and jumped back, and ran briskly across the stairs, laughing all over. He was a young man like the wind, with slender legs and smooth lines, like a running sheep.

After leaving the arena, Mei Xuandong called friends in the animal circle whom he had just met, hoping to invite one of the handmade emperors to make a set of Pleasant Goat animal costumes.

The girl’s name is Meng Yuling, and she shouted in disbelief on the phone: “Are you sure you want sheep? Let me tell you first, I have only done animal costumes for dogs and cats before, let alone sheep costumes. I’ve never seen anyone in an even-toed hoofed animal costume at a party!”

Mei Xuandong walked briskly in the sunshine. He was about to own the first piece of real estate in his life. He could take his younger sister from the south where his father was a gambler to the far north.

Remember a player smiled at him. Many good things made him happy, he said: “Yes, and I want to be close to the design of Pleasant Goat, not to say that I want to make Pleasant Goat, but I hope it is the same anthropomorphic form as him.”

Meng Yuling: “This is a brand new design, plus the cost of materials, I can’t give you a discount?”

Mei Xuandong stopped in her tracks: “Fifty thousand!”

Meng Yuling rolled her wheelchair to the workbench, holding the phone between her shoulders: “Deal… In fact, 30,000 yuan is enough for me to do the best. If you give more, I will deceive you, so let’s give it at 30,000 yuan. “

After the phone call, Mei Xuandong was humming a song, a bunch of messy words floating in his mind, and finally found himself running to the convenience store by the roadside, and wrote a new song with a sticky note.

He was in a daze for a while, and wrote four words at the top – Sunshine and a good view.

That’s the name of the song.

When he returned to the hotel, he greeted Zhao Zhaoyan, and Zhao Zhaoyan asked friendlyly, “Was the game good?”

Mei Xuandong: “Very nice.”

Zhao Zhaoyan snorted, and suddenly held up her mobile phone to show him: “The other group is quarreling, do you know about this?”

Mei Xuandong quickly clicked on his mobile phone, and found that another group of “Revisiting the Golden Era”, that was, Tan Lele, who was in the same group as Xi Gu, had torn up with Wang Ziran. She insisted that Wang Ziran stop making CP speculation with her. Her husband also posted a post to express his dissatisfaction.

But what Mei Xuandong didn’t understand was that the biggest voice of public opinion on the whole network was actually saying that Tan Lele didn’t know what to do.

Someone stood up and said: “Since I participated in the show, I have to accept some hype. This is also part of the celebrity job. Tan Lele is too embarrassed to be dissatisfied. I don’t know how handsome Wang Ziran is. I don’t know who took advantage of the scandal with him. “

Two of the top three on the hot search list are related to this matter, one was “How much advantage did the CP speculation with Wang Ziran take” from the top of the fans, and the other was “The behavior of those princesses in Tan Lele’s show”.


Looking at Mei Xuandong’s expression, Zhao Zhaoyan thought to herself, before participating in the show, she was worried about whether the other party would use that face similar to hers to get close. From her perspective, a junior with a face similar to hers went around everywhere. Even if it wasn’t what he wanted, the brokerage company behind it must have got involved, which made Zhao Zhaoyan dissatisfied.

Unexpectedly, after getting along with each other in reality, although this young man was not so attentive and not good at dealing with affairs, he had good business ability, had a good sense of humor and did not act like a monster.

Zhao Zhaoyan’s smile was sincere, and she was willing to give some benefits: “After the recording of tomorrow’s show, I will invite you to a French meal. Thank you for taking care of me. It just so happens that Director Zhang also came to Q City. See you later. Multiple connections and multiple paths.”

Mei Xuandong realized that it was his good performance that made Zhao Zhaoyan willing to further develop a “friendship” with him. He didn’t express his gratitude, but only mentioned work.

“Tomorrow our three groups are going to meet up. It happens that the seniors are leading the juniors on a trip this time. If there is anything to discuss with Wang Ziran and Bai Yu, I will come. It is more convenient for me to chat with them on some topics.”

He smiled: “Wang Ziran is in the limelight, as beautiful as Sister Zhao, staying away from him can save a lot of trouble from fans.”

Zhao Zhaoyan was amused, patted him on the shoulder, and left satisfied.

Looking at her back, Mei Xuandong secretly heaved a sigh of relief, thinking that what the boss of the company said before leaving was correct, all he had to do was hold Zhao Zhaoyan politely. It was tiring, but it didn’t hurt to have a good relationship with the rich and well-connected seniors.

It was a pity that I couldn’t continue to chase the game tomorrow.

Mei Xuandong took off his clothes to take a shower, habitually looked at the countdown in the mirror, and was stunned.

Qin Chunxiao was also standing in the bathroom right now, lighting up and running the countdown for another ten minutes.

“How can you count down from a distance of more than three meters?”

The average countdown of hidden soulmates was 72 hours, and they were ten times more than others. The countdown range of other soulmates was within 3 meters, but their range was 5 meters.

The countdown between them was ten times higher than the average, but the invisible thread that held them seemed to be longer than the others.
