Chapter 91: Chapter 89 - You want to add his WeChat?

Edited by Noks

Yi Chen was the first to notice that the content of the lines floating in the barrage assistant had to do with him.

However, he didn’t have any intention of stepping back at all. Instead, he raised one hand and put it on Yu Yan’s gaming chair, coming close enough for their arms to touch each other.

Originally, he hadn’t quite understood why the staff had blurred out his face during the livestream of the platform’s gala?

At that time, his mosaiced picture had become quite popular, and many stream followers had even spread it out all over Weibo. It was his assistant who had first discovered and reported the issue to him, and only then had he asked people to control his popularity in the eyes of the public.

If he had really gotten onto some Weibo trending search while he still had a mosaic over him….

Yi Chen couldn’t help but frown when thinking about this issue.

Usually, the area covered by the poison circle was very small, and during a normal match, it could even count as being the semi-final circle.

But this match still had dozens of survivors left. Yu Yan pretty much got into a fight every two steps. By the time he was wrapping up one fight, before he could even apply a first-aid kit to himself, he would hear more gunshots close by.

At this time, lines that Yi Chen couldn’t understand suddenly appeared in the barrage.

[？？？]

[Stream followers can ah. If you can even snipe something like that, kill all your teammates and commit suicide, then you can get on the bus.]

[Confessing?? Don’t ah, bro. Even if Xiao Yan really is bent, you’ll get no results there! Didn’t you see who was sitting next to him?!]

Yu Yan’s expression suddenly turned subtle. He only heard Yu Yan slightly cough, then hold down the voice key in the game and say, “….Hello, thank you for your like.”

Yi Chen frowned and stared at his headphones for a few seconds, before suddenly getting up and leaving.

Yu Yan looked at his figure reflexively and wanted to ask him if he was bored, but it was inconvenient to do so with the mic on. Finally, he resisted the urge and focused his attention back on the game.

Who would have known that the other party would come back only half a minute later.

Yi Chen was carrying earphones in his hand, and after connecting it to his cellphone, he resumed his original sitting position and swaggered into the livestream.

The stream followers looked at the entrance prompt that appeared on top of the livestream screen, then looked at the seated visual of the same person at the corner of the screen.

[…… Boss 1, what are you doing with this??]

[Lolololol, I forgot that boss couldn’t hear anything this whole time. Logically speaking, what’s the point of playing this game if you can’t hear anything?]

[Boss 1, listen to me, is this Xiao Yan stream follower sniper being proper?!]

As soon as Yi Chen put on his earphones, he heard a strange voice talking.

He looked at the lower left corner of the computer to make sure that this sound didn’t belong to any of Yu Yan’s teammates in the game. It should be coming from a nearby player who had turned on the all-game voice chat mic.

“God Yan, do you need any accessories? I have an 8x scope, a zoom, and a silencer here.” It was a boy’s voice, and some tension seemed to present in the midst of his enthusiastic tone.

Although Yi Chen didn’t understand the game well, he also knew that these three things were the best accessories available in PUBG.

And…God Yan? What kind of address was that?

“No need, you take it ba

.” Yu Yan said, “…you’re not going to go find your teammates?”

“My teammate is my roommate who is just teaming up with me.” The boy added, “I just took a look, you don’t have a silencer ba? I also have a level 3 helmet that I can give you! Don’t worry, they definitely won’t be able to beat you.”

When Yi Chen heard these words, he raised his eyebrows slightly.

Yu Yan had been sniped at by stream followers before. Almost all stream followers whom he met in the match would jump to the same place as him, then turn on their mic to talk to him for a bit before going back to the action of trying to kill him.

Occasionally, he would also encounter some players who confessed to him, but most of them were just joking. In front of the many stream followers watching the livestream, they only dared to say that they liked his livestream very much, and all of these confessions came from girls.

He had never encountered a male stream follower who assiduously worked hard all the way to the semi-finals, and then turned around to just give him all of the good things he possessed.

Yu Yan actually thought the other side was joking. “No need, you just play normally ba,” he said.

Yi Chen listened as the boy went silent for a few seconds, before he spoke up again, “The only reason I saved so many good things was for you.”

“I was even afraid that your teammates wouldn’t have enough, so I brought some extras too.”

Yu Yan: “…”

After hearing this, Yi Chen just chuckled instead of saying anything.

The microphone equipment accurately carried the sound of this laugh to the stream followers’ ears.

Before the stream followers had the chance to understand the meaning behind this laugh, a gaudy and pompous bubble appeared in the public chat, a noble and rich privilege that was bestowed solely on the livestream guardians.

[Yanyan’s Daddy: What did this person say before?]

Everyone in the stream immediately changed into the bad children who tattled to the teacher.

[As soon as Xiao Yan ran into the circle, this boy suddenly started talking and said, “God Yan, I’ve liked you for a really long time” !]

[It’s not that I look at people with fujoshi eyes ba? Why do I feel like this guy is acting so gay?]

[The one before didn’t make it clear ah! The boy also said, “If I don’t see you every day, I feel bad,” and “when I have money, I will definitely send gifts and become a guardian” !]

[Not to say anything else, but Xiao Yan has never gone to the lower levels to just shoot fish in a barrel, and has always played only with his main account. This guy being able to get into the semi-finals of this kind of match, he should be very powerful! I hope the anchor will let him get on the bus.]

Yu Yan noticed the barrage at this time because the color of the font of Yi Chen’s question in the barrage assistant stood out differently from that of other people’s messages, and thus was especially conspicuous.

In a daze, he turned his head and took off his earphones. “…Why did you enter the stream?”

Yi Chen met his gaze and said, “I can’t hear the sounds in the game.”

Yu Yan let out an “ah” and said, “I forgot.”

He had external speakers as well, but the sounds emanating from the external speakers were totally different from what could be heard through the headphones, and he couldn’t judge where the footsteps or gunshots were coming from from the sound of the external speakers at all, so he basically didn’t use it.

“Then will it be troublesome for you to listen like that?” There was a delay occurring in the live stream. Although it was only a lag of a few seconds, the audio and visual still counted as being out of sync.

“No, you play.” Yi Chen paused and then suddenly said, “….Your fan is calling out to you.”

Through the earphones, it could be heard that after not receiving a reply, the boy had started to urge him, “God Yan, God Yan? I already tossed everything. If you don’t feel reassured, I’ll run a little further back, and then you can then come and pick it up?”

Yu Yan focused back on the game. He opened the map and looked at it; the circle had gotten smaller again, and they weren’t in the safety zone, so they would have to run from the poison circle. “Really not necessary, you have fun ba. I’ll let you go this time, and I’ll see you in the final round ba.”

His tone was exactly the same as the one he would use when carrying stream followers to eat chicken.

“God Yan, don’t be like that ah.” The boy was getting frantic. He had originally wanted to spend 2000 yuan to send gifts to get on the bus before, but that would make him no different from any of the other bosses. Thinking about it, he knew that God Yan would take no notice of him at all if he went that route.

He looked at the black woman nearby who was wearing the system default clothing, then suddenly thought of something and called out, “God Yan! Wait!”

Yu Yan wasn’t planning on wasting time and had already started to run away. He didn’t respond anymore.

The boy immediately followed after him and controlled the range his voice could reach as he said, “God Yan, wait a minute, shall I give you the clothes on my back ba? I have thousands of these coats and hundreds of glasses and scarves.”

Black lines showed up on Yu Yan’s face.

Whatever gave this stream follower the misperception that he liked to change clothes?

Clothes purchased in PUBG couldn’t be called cheap, but they couldn’t be called expensive either. Many of them could be used forever by the players after spending several hundred yuan for that privilege. Yu Yan spent so much time on games all year round, and if he really wanted to buy some clothes, he wouldn’t have been too reluctant to do so.

Yu Yan said, “No, I don’t want to be the most colorful target in the final round.”

Yi Chen also thought that the character’s clothing was the game setting that you needed to pay the least attention to in the game. Especially since some of the available clothes were too bright in color, and if you lay down in the grass in those clothes, it would be basically equivalent to sending yourself to the enemy’s muzzle.

However, as he looked down at the barrage on his cellphone, he realized that other people didn’t seem to think so.

[God, isn’t this boy too considerate?]

[A man in the game who is willing to take off his apparel to give to a passer-by only comes around once in a thousand years. I am moved liao, how about you guys?]

[I’m also puzzled… Why doesn’t Xiao Yan buy some apparel for himself? Other anchors either wear gorgeous colors all over their bodies, or they wear the flirtiest outfits. With Xiao Yan, it is the first time I’ve ever seen anyone play the game in just the default outfit. He’s been livestreaming for months ah! This outfit has pretty much not changed!!]

[Wow, my son can’t be wronged like that. I’m going to go buy some apparel for my son!]

Yu Yan looked at the barrage and laughed. “Everyone, please don’t make a fuss and concentrate on watching me play in the final round.”

Yu Yan’s teammates had picked up some signs of the going-ons from the chat just now, and now they had taken him to be the leader of their team. Whichever direction Yu Yan pointed to, they went and fought in, and after cleaning up the two teams missing their arms and legs, all four players managed to reach the final round.

As soon as he entered the circle, he saw a man wearing colorful clothes not far away from him. It was that stream follower.

At this time, the stream follower also spoke, “Ah?! God Yan! You’re here!”

During this conversation, the game character of the other party remained motionless.

In the game, if you looked left and right, the character would turn their head to follow your perspective. Moreover, Yu Yan had entered the circle from behind a stone, so the other party definitely couldn’t see him from his point of view.

…… this was frankly and obviously using the livestream to steal a peek ah.

For all those who were gaming anchors, none of them liked people stealing peeks, and Yu Yan was the same. Especially in this match, where he and his teammates had just entered the final round when a peeping stream follower had suddenly appeared—this would make their game experience very poor.

After all, the most taboo thing in the game was to expose one’s position.

By this time, the other teams had also discovered the existence of this stream follower, and two teams had started to fight below.

Yu Yan didn’t respond to him, just opening the settings and directly turning off the all-game voice chat.

A teammate asked, “No.1, it seems that your fan is fighting with someone else. So should we let’s say ah…. Steal up on their behinds?”

Yu Yan replied, “Steal up.”

After all, it was four people who had made it to the final round, and he couldn’t let the efforts put in so far by his other three teammates go to waste.

A few minutes later, Yu Yan cleared the two teams near them, which included the team the stream follower belonged to.

He was looting things when he heard his teammate say, “No.1, have you turned off the all-game mic? Your fan is… revealing all of their true feelings for you.”

“Turned off.” Yu Yan finished looting, turned around, and ran off without even looking at the stream follower’s lootbox. “Let’s go. Two teams are fighting behind the mountain, so let’s go mediate between them.”

As could be seen from the number of survivors left after the semi-final round, there were no immortals present in this match.

After looting so many boxes, Yu Yan’s team members had become fat beyond all reason, and they ate chicken in a clear and orderly fashion.

At the end of the match, he was planning to open up a betting game for his stream followers when he found that that stream follower from just now was shouting at him in the livestream.

[Wintery: God Yan I’m sorry ah, QAQ. I didn’t mean to sneak a peek at your screen, I just couldn’t help but want to look at your perspective.]

[Wintery: God Yan, can we add each other on WeChat?]

The reason Yu Yan was able to single him out of the so many other lines in the barrage was because the other party had sent him thousands of yuan worth of gifts just now, and now possessed the noble text bubble that all Guardians had. Although it wasn’t as grandiose as Yi Chen’s, it was still quite showy.

He had originally wanted to thank his stream follower for the gifts and then politely refuse his friend request as usual.

Who knew that before he could speak, the person next to him would open his mouth first.

Yi Chen asked, “You want to add his WeChat?”

[Wintery: Want! Want!!]

Yi Chen said, “It isn’t like that isn’t possible.”

Yu Yan froze.

[Wintery: Ah!? Thank you boss Gege!! Great kindness and great virtue will never be forgotten!!]

Yi Chen paused and suddenly the conversation changed topics. “Are you using your computer or your cellphone?”

[Wintery: Ah? Using the computer.]

“En, then look up.” Yi Chen’s voice was lazy as he asked, “Do you see the star offering list in the upper right corner?”

[Wintery: …See it, what’s the matter la?]

Yi Chen let out a short laugh, and the sneer on his face was very obvious. He said, “When you surpass me in these rankings, then come to him for his WeChat.”

Juurensha: I feel a little bad for Wintery, but on the other hand, with Boss Yi so obviously THERE, he was kind of dumb to chase after Yanyan too.
