Great God, don't make candy easily!

Chapter 168 Are you... crying?
Because of this incident, Xia Bairuo forgot about RG's loss to AE.

It was probably close to twelve o'clock at night, just when she was about to fall asleep, her phone suddenly vibrated.

In a daze, Xia Bairuo picked up the call.

In the dark and quiet room late at night, the sound of suppressed breathing came from the receiver, but no one spoke.

Thinking she dialed the wrong number, she was about to cut off the call when an almost inaudible sob suddenly penetrated her eardrums.

Frowning slightly, Xia Bairuo took the phone to his eyes and glanced at it.

...He Zijia.

The news she saw earlier suddenly flashed through her mind, and the sleepiness in her mind was half gone in an instant.

"He Zijia?" Xia Bairuo lifted up the quilt and stood up, clapping her hands to turn on the night light.

There was a brief silence on the other end of the call.

Then, He Zijia's slightly hoarse voice came over, "It's me."

"You...cryed?" Xia Bairuo felt a little uncomfortable.

In the past, when she was with him, she had seen his failures, but she had never seen his tears.

They rarely talk about games.

Before the breakup, in Xia Bairuo's eyes, He Zijia had always been a cheerful and energetic man who loved games and regarded it as a career.

However, after the breakup, she saw his fragile side, even... like today, the tearful side.

"I'm sorry." He Zijia did not answer her question and only said these three words.

Xia Bairuo opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but when the words reached his lips, he swallowed them alive.

After putting on her slippers and getting out of bed, she opened the floor-to-ceiling window and walked out to the small balcony.

It was a late autumn night in K City. Although it was not cold, it was still a little chilly.

The entire villa area fell into silence, with only a few lights illuminating some black shadows.

"I don't want you to see this side of me, but..." Every word He Zijia said seemed to use great effort, and his suppressed breath made Xia Bairuo feel slightly distressed.

"Besides you, I can't think of anyone I can talk to to say..." It sounded like a sigh, but also like a confession, every syllable was full of power.

He Zijia is so pitiful...

Xia Bairuo pursed her lips.

She knew the reason for his tears and the emotions in his heart.

This is just like a victorious general losing to a weakling who can be bullied by everyone in the eyes of the world. It is difficult for the person involved to accept it, and it also makes the onlookers despise him.

With the experience of AE being punished, Xia Bairuo knew that there must be many negative comments about RG on Weibo now.

As the most talked-about person in RG now and also the most powerful player, He Zijia will only encounter more than his teammates.

If he makes a mistake on the field or RG makes a mistake...

"I'm sorry." After taking a deep breath, Xia Bairuo said, "I didn't watch your game tonight because of something."

On the other end of the call, there was a slight change in breathing.

"But... He Zijia, be strong, it's not the end of the road yet."

"As a professional player, what you pursue is the championship trophy. All your hard work and dedication are for it. On this road, it is an honor and a joy to be able to gain fans who like you."

"But you can't live for them, let alone what they think. Just be yourself."

After Xia Bairuo finished speaking, there was silence between the two of them again.
