Chapter 325 - 325: Qin Lu Doesn’t Fall For It

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Shen Junqing just couldn’t believe that sending this message would leave Qin

Lu unaffected.

He had sent money to reward Yanyan and got scolded by her.

He was quite curious about what would happen if Qin Lu sent money to reward her – would he get scolded even worse?

Just the thought of Qin Lu losing face made him happy.

When Qin Lu saw the message sent by Shen Junqing, his expression slightly darkened.

He didn’t like paying attention to online matters.

He had been dealing with company affairs just now and had no idea that Nan Yan was live-streaming.

Although he knew that Shen Junqing was deliberately sending messages to provoke him, he still couldn’t help but feel irritated.

He couldn’t focus on those documents anymore and downloaded a live-streaming app on his phone.

The app was installed in a few minutes, and after he created an account and logged in, he didn’t need to search for it. The number one on the popularity ranking was Nan Yan’s room.

Upon entering the room, he heard Nan Yan’s cold voice saying, “Bai Chen, come back to me, don’t run around.”

When Qin Lu heard this name, his nerves tightened for a moment.

Then he couldn’t help but laugh. He had probably been too anxious after hearing from Qin San today that Bai Chen, the core manager of the Dark Realm, had appeared within the territory of China. There was no way the person they were calling now could be that Bai Chen. It was most likely a coincidence of names.

Qin Lu temporarily suppressed this thought and refocused his attention on the screen.

In the livestream room, the screen displayed Nan Yan’s gaming interface.

They could only see her side of the situation and not the other side. After all, there were no professional esports equipment available, so the audience couldn’t watch the game from a top-down perspective.

The livestream room’s host was Nan Yan, so naturally, it was from her point of view.

The game had only just begun for three minutes. In order to promote AEG, Nan Yan had slowed down the pace considerably and didn’t rush to dominate her opponents right from the start.

However, Bai Chen was a bit uncontrollable, always wanting to exert more pressure.

In response to Nan Yan’s call, he obediently returned to her side.

Bai Chen had his microphone on, and his deep, charming voice reached the ears of all the viewers in the room. “Little Yanyan, since you asked me to go easy in this team match, you’ll have to play more rounds with me later.”

Nan Yan replied, “Sure.”

This simple exchange between the two immediately caused a stir in the room.

“Who is the guy being called ‘Bai Chen’ by the goddess?”

“Wow, that guy’s voice is so charming! So pleasant to listen to!”

“They seem quite familiar with each other, calling each other so intimately. I really want him to show his face and see if it matches his fantastic voice.”

“Am I the only one looking forward to a showdown between the goddess and the guy who just spoke?”

“Daring to challenge the goddess one-on-one, his skills must be outstanding, right?”

“What did I just hear? This guy actually said that they were going easy on Captain Lin? Haha, that’s hilarious! An unknown nobody dares to say they’re going easy on Lin’s team!”

“It’s only been three minutes, who’s going easy on who? Can you be more careful with your words? Just because you’re an amateur doesn’t mean you can disrespect celebrity esports players!”

“I used to like a certain ‘Yan,’ but hearing that statement really ruined my impression of her. I’m withdrawing my support; I won’t be a fan anymore…”

The comments section wasn’t just filled with AEG fans; fans of the other teams that had joined through Lin Ziyu’s message were also vocal. Although Lin Ziyu’s team had their microphones turned off, they were having a heated private conversation, clearly upset.

“She’s so arrogant; she hasn’t even started playing and she’s already saying she’ll go easy on us. Is she intentionally insulting us?”

Lin Ziyu’s face darkened as he said, “Investigate this person called ‘Bai Chen’ and see if he’s a new recruit in AEG.’

“We must bring our A-game for this match and teach her a lesson.”

“As soon as she loses, immediately post the game footage online and share that guy’s statement. This will definitely attract some backlash against them.”

Lin Ziyu and his team had prepared trending topics and press releases when they proposed the idea of a friendly match with Nan Yan. They were just waiting for the right moment to expose these.

“Alright, enough arguing. Focus on the game and don’t mess up.”

Meanwhile, Shen Junqing was still waiting for Qin Lu to send money and gifts.

However, after Nan Yan’s room quickly climbed to the top of the popularity chart, the wealthy viewers who had been sending airplanes, cruise ships, and mansions suddenly disappeared.

Only a few fans remained, sending small gifts.

Clearly, Qin Lu hadn’t spent any money!

He hadn’t sent any gifts to Nan Yan either!

“Damn…”

“He’s really stingy!”

Shen Junqing felt quite displeased that he couldn’t trick Qin Lu into gifting Nan Yan. So, he decided to send another message to Qin Lu:

Even he, Shen Junqing, couldn’t tolerate this newcomer. He wondered what Qin Lu had in mind. Not to mention Qin Lu, Shen Junqing felt antagonistic toward him even without meeting him in person.

As for Qin Lu, upon receiving Shen Junqing’s message, he sneered. He had no interest in dealing with troublemakers.

Nan Yan continued to stall in the game for ten more minutes, but her patience wore thin, especially as she watched the barrage of comments on the screen, which irritated her.

During this time, one of AEG’s interns died at the hands of the opposing team. The first blood went to the enemy.

The fans of Lin Ziyu and his team erupted in cheers, making Nan Yan and AEG’s fans feel dejected in comparison.

She glanced at the screen and adjusted her microphone, speaking in her usual cool and calm tone, “Bai Chen, you don’t have to hold back anymore.”

“I’ve been waiting for you to say that.”

Bai Chen, who had been typing leisurely on the keyboard, suddenly accelerated his pace.

Chen Lang, who was watching by his side, couldn’t help but be amazed. Nan Yan’s friend was undoubtedly a super high-level player. Even for him, this speed was unattainable. Without even considering their skills, the speed alone spoke volumes.

Once Nan Yan and Bai Chen stopped holding back, the situation immediately reversed. Lin Ziyu and his team, who had thought they had the upper hand, started to panic.

From Nan Yan and Bai Chen restraining themselves to the end of the battle, it only took a minute.

This speed left the audience in awe and bewildered Lin Ziyu and his team.

“Thank you for letting us win.”

Nan Yan’s indifferent and icy voice felt like a slap in the face to Lin Ziyu and his team.

Burning.

Anger mixed with embarrassment.

They had come with such confidence, thinking they could win a round, but instead, they lost miserably.

In an attempt to gain attention, they even spent money to boost Nan Yan’s livestream to the top of the popularity chart.

It was truly a case of throwing good money after bad.

In the end, Lin Ziyu awkwardly commented, “Miss Nan’s skills are indeed impressive,” and then hastily exited the room with the others.

Once they left, their accompanying fans didn’t stay either, quickly withdrawing from the scene..
