The national team won the First Miracle World Compet.i.tion and many reporters wanted a comprehensive interview with all players. However, many players weren"t willing to do interviews since they wanted to rest for a few days. Since the players had been playing for so long and were exhausted by the matches, Chairman Nan Jiangang declined the reporters" request to interview everyone and found two representatives.The representatives were naturally Captain Li Cangyu and Vice-Captain Ling Xuefeng.
Chairman Nan smiled and said, “Some players aren"t talkative in front of reporters and some are unwilling to show up. Therefore, the difficult task of the interviews will be handed to you and Xuefeng.”
Li Cangyu reluctantly had to promise. He turned to the hotel and sat on the sofa while rubbing his temples. “The chairman asked us to go for an interview tomorrow. The questions that could be answered have already been answered. I don"t know what the reporters want us to say.”
“Who told us to be the captain and vice-captain?” Ling Xuefeng walked over and helped ma.s.sage his shoulders, whispering, “It will only be busy for the next day days. Then I will accompany you to go on a holiday after returning to China.”
“Yes, the holiday period is relatively long and we can relax.” Li Cangyu"s modd was obviously much better. He looked back at Ling Xuefeng and wondered, “Where do you want to go for the holiday?”
“You decide.” Ling Xuefeng"s voice was very gentle.
He was usually cold and serious. In particular, everyone in the Wind Colour team had to listen to their captain"s orders. As a result, in front of Li Cangyu, he always gave up on making decisions. Maybe it was because he was a captain outside and a wife at home? Li Cangyu had this thought and couldn"t help smiling. He questioned in a calm voice, “Xuefeng, shall I take you on a honeymoon?”
“Good.” LIng Xuefeng"s lips curved slightly and his eyes were bright. “Where do you want to go on the honeymoon?”
“How about going to the Maldives?” Li Cangyu opened his phone with excitement and searched for a photo of the Maldives, pointing to the blue sky and sea in the photo. “After all, it is a legendary honeymoon place and the scenery should be good. We are both tired from playing the game so how about going on a romantic trip?”
Ling Xuefeng nodde.d “Yes, shall we go by ourselves?”
“Of course, I don"t want to report to a tour group. Too many light bulbs are boring.” Li Cangyu lened over and gently kissed Ling Xuefeng. “We will go just the two of us.”
Ling Xuefeng saw the expression on this man"s face and really wanted to throw him on the sofa. However, considering there was an interview tomorrow, Ling Xuefeng had to take a deep breath and suppress the urges of his body. He gently touched this person"s cheek and said, “Okay, I"ll check the route and tickets. If you are tired then sleep first. We have to attend the press conference in the morning.”
“Yes, then I"ll sleep first.” Li Cangyu lay down on the bed and watched Ling Xuefeng sitting in front of the laptop and carefully checking tickets, causing Li Cangyu"s heart to warm. It was really a blessing to find such a powerful and considerate wife.

The next morning, the two people got up early and prepared for the interview with the media.
Ling Xuefeng usually wore a suit when attending formal events. He was tall and had long legs. Whenever he wore a suit, he looked like a cover model in a magazine. His exquisite facial features gave a sense of abstinence and many fans were excited just looking at his face.
Li Cangyu usually liked to wear loose and comfortable casual wear. However, today he wore a suit in order to match Ling Xuefeng. Coincidentally, his clothes were the same colour as Ling Xuefeng"s suit.
Ling Xuefeng apparently discovered this. He came over to Li Cangyu and examined it carefully. Then he leaned over and whispered in Li Cangyu"s ears, “Did you specifically prepare a couple"s outfit with me?”
Li Cangyu didn"t deny it and nodded calmly. “Don"t you think this is perfect?”
Ling Xuefeng smiled and hugged the straightforward big cat. “It is a perfect match.”
The two of them met Tan s.h.i.tian and Cheng Wei at the restaurant downstairs. It was only Xiao Cheng who would run downstairs to eat breakfast so early. IT turned out that today"s hotel buffet had many special snacks. Tan s.h.i.tian smiled and greeted them politely while Cheng Wei put down the cake in his hand and ran to Li Cangyu. “Cat G.o.d, you"re so handsome today! Isn"t this like going to a wedding?”
Li Cangyu, “…”
Tan s.h.i.tian immediately pulled back Cheng Wei and smiled. “Cough, Cat G.o.d and Captain Ling are going to the press conference, right?”
Cheng Wei only just realized and grinned. “Oh, the chairman made you face the reporters again. Cat G.o.d, refuel!”
Li Cangyu and Ling sat at the next table to eat breakfast before going to the conference room on the third floor of the hotel.
They pushed open the door and were immediately greeted with flashing lights. The venue was full of heads, including some foreign reporters. It was obvious that the scale of this press conference was very large but Li Cangyu and Ling Xuefeng had long been used to such a scene. The two of them exchanged a look before walking forward.
Li Cangyu wore a suit and was handsome and compelling when he smiled. Ling Xuefeng looked cold and his suit was steady and restrained. The two men with different styles stood together and coordinated very well. In particular, today"s clothes matched each other.
The reporters saw the two people and clapped. After the warm applause, the host signalled for the interview to start. A girl stood up excitedly and asked, “I noticed that the clothes worn by the two great G.o.ds today are of the same style. Did you buy it together?”
Li Cangyu replied, “I bought it previously when I was in China. I rarely wear suits but Xuefeng is so formal today that I have to cooperate with him. Otherwise, it will be too strange when we stand together.”
Ling Xuefeng heard this and glanced over at him with a slight smile. “You are very handsome in formal clothing.”
The brief exchange made the atmosphere warm and the reporters couldn"t help agreeing, “Cat G.o.d is really handsome!”
”Can"t he go directly to a wedding like this?”
A photographer took a close-up photo of the two people. After a closer look, he was surprised to find that the two men sitting together in formal clothing looked like the photo ID of a marriage certificate. Of course, the photographer immediately got rid of the strange idea that popped up and pointed his camera again.
The reporters" questions also entered the right track. “Cat G.o.d, your leadership has contributed to this national team winning the World Compet.i.tion. Now that you have won, what do you want to tell everyone?”
Li Cangyu picked up the microphone and smiled. “I am the captain and my only credit is in arranging the lineup and organizing the tactical training. The most important thing is the players of the national team. The players have a very high overall level and everyone worked together to play every game. Each step was practical and we deserved to win this World Compet.i.tion. The most gratifying thing is that we lived up to the expectations of the audience.”
The people clapped warmly. Obviously, many reporters were from China and were satisfied with Li Cangyu"s elegant answer. A male reporter stood up and questioned, “Do you think there are any weak links in the Chinese team that needs to be improved on?”
“Of course. We aren"t as mature as the US team and South Korean team in the use of certain tactics.” Ling Xuefeng glanced over at Li Cangyu and continued, “These questions will be studied in detail after returning home.”
“Yes, we have already gained the referee"s perspective of every match in this World Compet.i.tion and they will be the focus of the major teams after returning home.” Li Cangyu continued on from Ling Xuefeng.
“We might"ve won the championship but we still have to consider future compet.i.tions. We can"t stand still.” Ling Xuefeng stated.
Li Cangyu nodded. “Yes.
“Do you have the confidence to win the next World Compet.i.tion? Will the two of you serve as leaders of the national team again?” This question caused many reporters" ears to p.r.i.c.k nervously.
LI Cangyu and Ling Xuefeng shared a tacit look. Then Ling Xuefeng picked up the microphone and replied, “It isn"t good to talk about next year"s matters.”
“It is too early for the next World Compet.i.tion and we can"t predict the future.” Li Cangyu continued. “After returning, we will first prepare for the eighth season of the domestic league. That is the most critical thing.”
The two people answered the reporters" questions one by one. Whenever a foreign reporter asked something, Ling Xuefeng would interpret for Li Cangyu. The two worked together seamlessly and quickly answered all questions.
After nearly an hour of answering questions, their throats were a bit dry. Ling Xuefeng opened a bottle of water and handed it to Li Cangyu. Li Cangyu naturally took it and drank from it. At this time, someone suddenly stood up and asked, “Cat and Ling are both captains and you"re normally busy. Do you have time to look for a girlfriend?”
Li Cangyu put down the water bottle and asked with surprise, “Can personal questions be asked?”
The host told him, “You can choose not to answer or it is fine if you are willing to answer.”
The reporter anxiously spoke, “Many fans hope that your personal matters can be resolved well. You can"t completely ignore life events in order to play the game. Can you tell us what type of girls you like?”
Li Cangyu smiled slightly. “In fact, I have a lover and the current progress is very smooth. I don"t want to announce their ident.i.ty for the time being because I don"t want too many people to bother my lover. They are also an e-sports player.”
The audience exclaimed and this was followed by another bombsh.e.l.l.
Ling Xuefeng lightly spoke, “I also have a lover. We are very good, thank you for your concern.”
Everyone, “…”
***
Shortly after the press conference ended, Weibo went viral with the news that both Cat G.o.d and Captain Ling had a lover.
Many people guessed who Li Cangyu"s girlfriend was among the e-sports players. Most of them pointed their fingers at girls of the Red Fox team before shifting to the female players of the Dragon Song Club. A guessing game started on Li Cangyu"s Weibo page.
Ling Xuefeng"s Weibo also had many fan questions. Many people couldn"t imagine it at all. What type of person would be worthy for Captain Ling?
Weibo became a messy pot of porridge. Li Cangyu saw the comments on Ling Xuefeng"s Weibo and felt some regret. “I shouldn"t have answered the reporter"s question.”
“It doesn"t matter. They will eventually know one day.” Ling Xuefeng didn"t care and gently held Li Cangyu"s shoulder. “Are aren"t doing anything shady and besides, aren"t we a good match?”
Li Cangyu nodded earnestly. “That"s true. In this world, only I am worthy of you.”
His confident smile was particularly dazzling and Ling Xuefeng couldn"t move his eyes away. After watching for a while, Ling Xuefeng couldn"t hold back and leaned down to press a kiss against this person"s lips. Then he smiled and said, “Yes, only you.”
-Only you deserve me and only you know me.
-Only I deserve you and only I really know you.
Together, they were called a match "made in heaven." Their att.i.tude towards this relationship was also very calm. They didn"t announce it because the timing wasn"t right. One day, it would be announced but as long as this person was by his side, he wouldn"t be afraid no matter how difficult.
It was because there was a person willing to share all joys with himself and was willing to accompany him to bear the suffering.
