When the next season came around, the only 18 year old left would be Close.

Getting three championships at eighteen could only refer to Close.

Yuan Ze wanted to team up with Close to win the global doubles.

Both Close and Kim Sung-hyun froze outside the door.

The door was open, but he didn't know how to go in. After hearing these words, he didn't even know how to respond.

However, the pancake's fragrance was pervasive and drifted straight into the training room. Although Yuan Ze couldn't hear anything from outside with the headphones on, his nose was very sharp. One sniff was enough for him to identify a certain someone who was addicted to Chinese food and almost wished he could eat himself into becoming a two hundred pound fatty proud flower in the last half month of his stay here.

It was like ghosts and gods were at play. Just as Yuan Ze turned his head back, Close stuffed the fruit pancake that was in his hands at Kim Sung-hyun and left for the training room next door.

Proud Flower Kim: "......"

Yuan Ze poked his head out to look at him. "Eating two on your own, you're really capable."

Kim Sung-hyun glanced in the direction of the neighboring door out of the corner of his eyes, which Yuan Ze caught keenly. "Is Close back from his morning run?"

Kim Sung-hyun sighed. "No."

Yuan Ze looked visibly relieved. He took a fruit pancake and asked, "Did you add eggs?"

"Five."

"You might as well be eating a fruit omelette!"

"There are such things as fruit omelettes????"

"Yeah, with fried fruit."

The two of them were just outside the door. Close could hear them clearly from the next room.

He looked straight at the computer screen in front of him: There was nothing there but a customized icon with their team logo, because FTW had won the world championships. At the bottom of the icon was a tiny F, which signified the highest honor for the championship team. Although it only lasted for ten days, it was enough to show the whole world who the real global champions were.

Close's eyelashes quivered slightly, and the corners of his lips curved gently.

He who didn't smile often was deadly when he smiled.

Kim Sung-hyun didn't expose Yuan Ze, and he didn't expose Close.

He felt a little sour. In his early years, Yuan Ze had never thought of practicing with the space knight for him. Of course, one of them was on the top lane while the other was on the bottom lane, and they were the furthest distance away from each other in the canyon. Practicing it would have been useless as they didn't have any reason to cooperate together.

He might feel sour, but he also felt pleased.

He was leaving, but his teammates were becoming more united. He felt a lot more at ease.

Later on, Kim Sung-hyun discovered that Close was also secretly practicing the space knight.

He pushed back in his e-sports chair, chewing on a sesame ball as he looked at Close. "What are you practicing with this for?"

Close: "Getting familiar with it."

Kim Sung-hyun: "???"

Close continued calmly. "Otherwise, I won't know how to cooperate."
