Yuanye is the brightest presence on the national team, second only to the flag.
He's unruly and sincere, and he never cares about anyone's opinion when he acts.
After falling out with his club, his head coach's pointed remarks sent him trending online.
Online abuse and microphones were shoved in his face.
Dressed in a pure black windbreaker, arms crossed, he lifted the corner of his mouth. "This is all you've got?"

Every TV station was trying to figure out how to get this tyrant to talk.
Then a beautiful new intern joined Xinyue TV as a sports reporter.
High ponytail, white T-shirt, jeans.
For the first time, the foul-tempered tyrant Ye went red-eyed on a national live broadcast.

Zuo You held up her microphone, her voice calm and unhurried:
"Captain Yuan, now that you've won the Golden Boot, is there anything else you wish you could achieve?"
The man smiled, but bitterness touched his eyes.
"You still don't know what I want?"

That night, Yuanye was trending again.
Almost everyone was convinced the two of them were caught in a tragic romance.
Onlookers eagerly gossiped:
[Oh my, Captain Yuan sounds like such a lovesick doormat.]
[Wait, didn't Xiao Zuo say on a show a couple of days ago that she had a boyfriend?]
[Could Captain Yuan be... trying to become the other man for love?]
Off-screen, Yuanye was stung by those four words.
For the first time, he let himself go. Reeking of alcohol and completely out of control, he kissed the red lips in front of him.
#My white moonlight is right in front of me, so don't talk to me about keeping calm#
#What? She has a boyfriend?#
Content warnings:
