When Shi Shan first came back,
Sui Yu announced on his livestream: "Only a dumb dog gets stuck in the past."
Later,
Sui Yu was the one going, "Woof, woof!"

Shi Shan: "Allow me to introduce the champion standing before you, winner of the CPL spring and summer splits, MSI, the Intercontinental Championship, the Paradise Cup, and more!"
What, the World Championship? There is no World Championship, and no championship skin!
Sui Yu: "..."
Sui Yu: "Now, allow me to introduce this lady..."
An esports prodigy? A cunning tactical mastermind? The current executive of the CPL?
He gives a cold snort. This is what traitors deserve.
Shi Shan smiles slightly. "Besides all that, I'm also the top donor in your livestream, a moderator of your fan forum, your very first fan, and, oh, an investor in your club~"
A year later,
Sui Yu: "She's still my ancestor."

When he was young and reckless, Sui Yu imagined countless times what it would be like to lift a trophy alongside Shi Shan.
But later, he realized that none of the futures he had imagined included Shi Shan, or a championship skin.
He spent seven years competing as a living fossil of esports, winning countless awards, yet never got the chance to bask in a golden rain on the World Championship stage.
Eventually, he accepted that his time was up, brought down by a body riddled with injuries.
Then the teammate from his youth suddenly returned in a position of power and said with a smile, "I hope it's not too late to fulfill our childhood dreams now."
Let an all-Chinese team take our place and stand at the pinnacle of world esports.
