Yu Yan didnât know what it meant either, but based on his intuition, it couldnât mean anything good.
He blinked constantly as he nervously asked, âThen, has the cat been good today?â
âYanyan?â Yi Chen withdrew his gaze from the screen and looked at the cat sleeping at his feet. âHeâs very well-behaved.â
ââ¦â
[What?? Whoâs well-behaved???]
[Itâd be such a pity if this anchor went to play professionally. With his skills and face value, he wouldâve had no problem becoming a money-making divine artifact.]
[Of course this anchor wouldnât dare to play professionally. After all, he canât run his aimbot during competitions ah.]
[What kind of deliberate shade are you trying to throw over there? Do you not see the notice thatâs hanging up there? Are you blind?]
[What can that notice count for? StarTV has only ever put up one notice, and it was his. I still say that he bribed an administrator to get the notice up through the back door.]
[You donât believe the platformâs notice or PUBGâs in-game cheat detection. Are you the most awesome and clear-headed person in the world ba?]
[Trembling Heart has been banned for three days by Administrator 03.]
Most of the barrage was still buzzing about the exciting offer from the QM team members. The more chaotic and lively it became, the more the stream mods couldnât keep up with banning people, so even Administrator 03 came out to start banning people. Seeing Administrator 03 come out made the conspiracy theorist antis even more excited.
Yu Yan always thought that it was pretty strange. From that QQ group he had recently joined, he could see that Administrator 03 didnât only manage his livestream, but also influenced a bunch of other livestream categories. How could he hang around his livestream every day?
[Tuantuan: Are there still places on the carry bus? Can you take us two pitiful souls?]
Recently, Lu Xiuhe had been occupied with studying so he was stuck at his desk every day. He had much less time to go online, so for these past few days, Yu Yan had either been playing solos or drawing in stream followers to play squad matches.
âYes.â Yu Yan, as if he had seen his savior, immediately invited them to the team.
âIsnât it dinner time?â Yi Chen asked.
âItâs fine.â Yu Yan queued the match. When they arrived at Mannerâs Plaza, he walked around and stopped in front of Yi Chenâs character. âTakeout hasnât arrived yet⦠Itâs okay to eat it later.â
As soon as Lulu loaded in, she asked, âBoss, I noticed that you only come on at night. Did you just get off work?â
âEn.â
âAn office worker ah. Then, you canât watch the livestream during the daytime?â
âI can.â
Tuantuan then asked, âI didnât see you enter the stream. Did you go watch other anchors? Donât ya, if youâre tired of watching Xiao Yanyanâs livestream, you can come to see Lulu and me.â
The more Yu Yan listened, the more he felt what was being said wasnât right. âYou guys are⦠are you trying to seduce 1 away from me?â
âNo, no, no, we are firm 1YanTang defenders.â Tuantuan continued, âBut shouldnât benefits always be kept for oneâs own people ma?â
Yi Chen laughed and answered, âDidnât go to watch others, just used a side account⦠What exactly is 1YanTang?â
[Used a side account!?]
[I even have to secretly log into a side account at work to watch your livestream! 1YanTang is rio!!]
[Why are you queueing the match for Erangel? Want to see Sanhok. Playing on Erangel with three pieces of baggage feels like a waste of time.]
â1YanTang is the name given to you two by the stream followers ah! 1, Yan, Tang! It used to be the Tang character for fluff, but it got simplified to the Tang character for store for easier typing.â
They even came up with a name?!
Yu Yan was stunned and hurriedly equivocated, âWhat fluff, what name&#k2026; Where should we jump to?â
âGave us a name?â Yi Chen raised his eyebrows. âWhy Tang?â
Lulu blurted out, âBecause you guys are sweet!â
After listening to her explanation, Yi Chen finally understood a bit more.
He looked at the little anchorâs microphone icon that kept flickering on and off without making a sound. With a faint smile, he said, âIâm not sweet.â
Yu Yan breathed a sigh of relief.
He didnât expect him to follow up with, âHe is very sweet.â
Yu Yan: ââ¦â
He actually felt that he had been wronged.
What did they mean when they said that he was holding onto 1 and selling rot?
He was being knocked out by 1 and dragged behind him to sell rot, okay!!!
[Sweet!! Youâre both sweet!!!]
[I can see that these two female anchors are our people.]
[Boss, the anchor competition started, why havenât you said anything about it ah?]
[The neighboring laoshuâs stream has already been spam gifted by a boss! Welcoming everyone to watch and come join in on the excitement! The stream room number isâ¦]
While they were still on the plane, Yu Yan directly opened the livestream page and kicked out the people who were linking the room numbers of other livestreams.
Yu Yan only saw the flood of messages that had appeared at the top of his screen after he cut those people out.
[Kills King Laoshu has sent a meteor shower on StarTVâs laoshuâs livestream]
This kind of notification had been sent several times in a row and it didnât seem like it was about to stop. Yu Yan only briefly glanced at the message before returning to the game.
However, his fans were enraged by the antis who came to his stream just to publicize this. They also started to spam his stream with gifts. Although they were all low value gifts, there were many people sending them, so he even felt a little bit of lag when tabbing back into the game.
[Although there are normally so many viewers watching this stream, compared to laoshuâs popularity, this stream canât compete. A group of girls who like to stare at faces, do you expect them to smash gifts for your rankings?]
[Yes, yes, yes, our little stream doesnât have room for you anymore, hurry and scram back to your laoshu pit.]
[Sorry, Iâm a man. I think that this anchorâs livestream quality is much better than laoshuâs. Laoshu only knows how to send out red envelopes every day to attract his viewers.]
âIâm just trying to focus on participating in this competition. I just want to get onto the homepage recommended list during the competition.â Yu Yan said, âEveryone, thank you very much for just coming to watch me. Thereâs no need to spend money.â
Because it was a match of 1 person carrying 3, they jumped to North Georgopol.
Yu Yan maneuvered the parachute and said, âIâll go to the outskirts of the city. You guys can search from the center and go around the city. Iâll drive to pick you guys up.â
Yi Chen said, âIâll come with you.â
âOkay. Then, Iâll take the left side and you can go to the right side?â
âEn.â
Yi Chen was just searching for items when his cellphone rang. He looked down and only picked it up after a while.
âWhere are you?â Mo Nancheng asked, âIâve found a good place recently, are you coming?â
Mo Nanchengâs personality was the opposite of Yi Chenâs. Outside of work, he liked to party and go to bars. In his words, life was only a few decades long so one less happy day was a loss. It was quite surprising to the people around them that the two of them could become good friends.
âNo.â Yi Chen said, âPlaying a game.â
âPlaying a game??â Mo Nancheng choked. âWhatâs the matter with you recently?â
When the sound of a gunshot was heard in his ear, Yi Chen said, âIf thereâs nothing else, Iâm hanging up.â
âWait.â Mo Nancheng called out to him, âIt doesnât matter if you donât come today, but you have to be free on Friday night.â
âWhat occasion is that?â
âMy birthday!â
âYouâre turning 30, and you still have to have a birthday party?â
âWhat, even when Iâm in my 70âs, I will invite a hundred young people to dance at my birthday party.â
Yi Chen said, âOkay. At that time, even if you donât invite me, Iâll get people to carry you here. Hanging up now.â
He put his headphones on again and heard the people in-game who had been calling out to him this entire time.
âBoss? Is the boss gone?â Lulu said, âHis avatar has been moving this whole time ah.â
Yi Chen replied, âIâm here. I just took a call.â
âRunning into the poison circle now.â
He opened the map and glanced at it. The two female anchors had already driven far away.
The little anchor was waiting outside his house with a motorcycle, not rushing him at all.
Seeing him come out, Yu Yan asked, âHave you finished searching?â
âAnswered the phone so I didnât search much.â Yi Chen said, âLetâs go ba.â n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Yu Yan looked at the medicine in his inventory; it wasnât enough for two people, but it also didnât warrant the need to search for more. He simply nodded and said, âItâs okay, Iâll kill two people in a bit, and then weâll have stuff.â
When they entered the safe area within the circle, they found a small house in the fields and crouched there.
Lulu went into a random room and crouched down. She opened her mic to cry out, âLetâs divide things up bei.â
When players were searching for items and came across things they already had, they would usually pick up another one to help their teammates, and then just divide the supplies later on.
Yu Yan was the last one to enter the room. He thought for a bit, ran to 1âs side and then crouched down beside him.
âWhy are you trying to squeeze in here when thereâs such a big empty space over there?â Lulu had finished saying this but then had a sudden realization. â⦠Sorry, Iâm the one trespassing. Iâll immediately scram.â
After she said that, she let out a giggle as she ran to the other end to be with Tuantuan.
Yu Yan said, âItâs not thatâ¦â
Yi Chen asked, âAfraid I wonât be able to grab anything?â
ââ¦â Yu Yan didnât reply. When the other two werenât paying attention, he scooted closer to 1 and then dropped something on the ground while saying, âExtended mag, 4x scope, cheek pad.â
âAbout to be crammed back by all the stuff you brought.â Yi Chen laughed and threw his extended quickdraw mag on the ground. âYou use this, Iâll take the extended mag.â
âOkay.â
The four people remained crouched in the house with no intentions of leaving. They were in the middle of the circle while in a field. They wouldnât need to run to the poison circle until the next one appeared.
Yu Yan was just scouting around to see if there were any enemies when he noticed that the barrage popout in the upper left corner was moving much faster.
[Fuck! Guys, quickly look at the viewers list. Why is this boss here againâ¦]
[Is he here to start a catfight? Rubs hands.]
[Maybe he made up with the anchor in private?]
[No way!! Look at this viewer profile! Number one on his star gifted list is actually laoshu⦠Heâs even a guardian rank over there.]
[This person had just spammed over 20,000 yuan of gifts in laoshuâs stream. Heâs a really big boss.]
Even up until the end of the match, the barrage still hadnât let up.
Yu Yan was a bit regretful that they didnât get to eat chicken. He minimized PUBG and then immediately saw the reason why the barrage had been spammed so fiercely.
The words âWill Never Eat Chickenâ were lit up in his streamâs star rankings list.
It was the boss whose gift he had returned last time.
Zhou Yan came in for no other reason except to just annoy Yu Yan. He had received the returned star coins from before, but he didnât care about that 2000 yuan.
It was his first time meeting such an anchor who refused to give him face. After he returned home, he stewed in anger by himself. Using the opportunity the anchor competition presented, he wanted to let the anchor know that he had missed out on such a generous boss.
After Yu Yan tabbed out of the game, he glanced at the stars ranking list and stared at it for several seconds.
Zhou Yan let out a snort, thinking that Yu Yanâs eyes must be full of regret and loss. He then looked at the praise in the barrage and his heart felt very comfortable.
Unexpectedly, a message popped up in the next second.
[Will Never Eat Chicken has been changed from stream moderator to ordinary user by yanxyan]
Zhou Yan was stunned and involuntarily sat up straightâthis person actually removed his yellow vest?!!
After the change, Yu Yan switched back to the game and said in a casual tone, âSorry Boss. I have returned the 2000 yuan gift that you had sent before, so I have to naturally take away your stream moderator status. Please understand.â
â
Juurensha: Ahahaha, Yanyan dying with all the shiptease Boss Yi is providing. (Idk if Boss Yi knows what heâs doing at all.)
Divi: GET BURNED Zhou Yan! Seriously, you got refunded and think you deserve the vest?! Also Boss Yi is unintentionally doing it because heâs dense as a rock⦠Rip Yanyan.
