Chapter 30   - I’ll love netizens forever.

Yu Yan had always felt that, out of all the people he had ever met, Lu Xiuhe was the most talkative.

Literally. As long as he was with you and his mouth was empty, he seemed to be able to talk and talk, until the end of the world.

Now, Yu Yan realized that there was always someone out there who was stronger.

During the two hours of playing, the new boss never stopped talking.

“Xiao Yan, come here. Ge will give you a first aid kit. I’ll properly curry favor with you so if I get knocked down later, you can help me up.”

“Xiao Yan, come here. Let’s go for an in-game drive. Next time I go to Manyang, I’ll take you on a ride in the real thing.”

“Does Xiao Yan have a butt? I’ll trade my heart for one.”

He was talking about the M416’s gunstock.

Yu Yan might be dense, but even he could see that the other side was deliberately saying such ambiguous words.

Although it was very effective on the barrage, he didn’t want to attract viewers this way.

“Boss.” He politely said, with a half-surrendering feeling, “I just gave No. 1 a magnifying scope. If I find another one later, I’ll give it to you, so don’t act gay towards me.”

Zhou Yan paused, then jokingly said, “Aren’t you always acting gay with No. 1? Why is it not okay when it’s with me? Don’t treat me differently .”

He hadn’t expected the other side to drag Yi Chen into this; Yu Yan was dumbstruck for a moment.

Did he usually talk to 1 in that manner? No ….

Yi Chen spoke up, “North direction, someone’s there.”

Yu Yan got a hold of himself and quickly opened the scope to look in the direction that Yi Chen mentioned.

As soon as Yu Yan aimed at the opponent’s helmet, he heard a bang; Yi Chen had already taken the lead in headshotting the person.

“Boss 1 is so awesome .” Lu Xiuhe said, “I feel like you’ve improved so quickly. I doubt that I was as good as you when I had played the game for just 20 hours.”

Yi Chen didn’t speak. He was still aiming in the opponent’s direction since the system didn’t give a kill notification—indicating that the enemy still had teammates alive over there.

Yu Yan absent-mindedly switched his guns, preparing to survey if he could just run over there to finish that guy off, when he suddenly heard a noise.

It took him several seconds to recover. “There’s someone close by!”

Unfortunately, it was too late. As soon as he spoke, there was a fierce gunshot nearby, and Zhou Yan was knocked down.

Yu Yan immediately hid behind a rock and determined the enemy’s position based on the gunshot just now. After reporting the coordinates, he started to fight back. Lu Xiuhe also quickly responded and pulled out a frag grenade. “Xiao Yan, I’ll toss a frag grenade. Pay attention to the enemy movements and kill them as soon as they’re exposed.”

Yu Yan answered, “Okay.”

Although Lu Xiuhe’s technique was just average, the two of them had played together for a long time, so they could still coordinate well with each other. And just like that, a few moments later, the two enemies who had rushed out were killed by them.

Lu Xiuhe said, “They weren’t directly eliminated, so there should be another one left.”

“They’re over there, trying to revive their teammates.” Yi Chen marked a point on the map. “Behind this tree; I just missed him.”

Zhou Yan clicked his tongue. “You’re too noob . I also just saw the person and shot them twice. Unfortunately, I’m not holding a good gun. If you had given me your 98K, the enemy would’ve been dead.”

“So, if you don’t know how to play, don’t try to fight over guns. Just watch people eat chicken in the livestream , instead of coming here to waste team resources.”

Bang——

The gunshot seemed to have slapped Zhou Yan’s face, and a line of white text appeared at the bottom left of the screen.

[Y11iic eliminated B8129_S with a Kar98K]

One corner of Yu Yan’s mouth quirked up, and he said in a low voice, “Powerful.”

[This boss talks a lot of shit . Can the anchor stop taking him along?]

[Also, mocking Boss 1; who didn’t start off as a newbie ? And, 1 has killed enemies, what did you do?]

[laoshu’s going to have to bow down to this anchor’s gun pressure… I suppose.]

[This new boss’ way of speaking is particularly vulgar. I just saw another viewer shipping him and the anchor. Please, are you unconcerned if it’s fluff or shit going into your mouth?]

Zhou Yan frowned impatiently. He took two deep breaths before he continued, “Xiao Yan, come and pull me up. Hurry up.”

Just a moment ago, someone was nearby while another enemy was on the opposite side, so no one dared to come help him before. This was the second time he had been knocked down, and at this moment, he was almost done bleeding to death.

Yu Yan was preparing to head over there, but the person next to him was even faster.

Yi Chen said, “I’ll go, you go loot everything.”

Yu Yan let out an “oh” and agreed, “Okay. I’ll go loot the two boxes over there. What do you need? I’ll grab it for you.”

“Bullet loop, M4 gunstock.”

“Okay.”Yu Yan hurriedly clicked to refund him.

Yu Yan: No need… I didn’t want to carry him anyway.

: [Transfers RMB 2000.00 to you]

: You covered for me. If I still let you suffer losses, that wouldn’t make sense.

Yu Yan stared at this sentence, but after a long time, the message still wasn’t recalled.

: Or do you want two meteor showers?

Yu Yan was given a scare. He replied: Why would you double it?

: The platform gets half the gift money. If I don’t send two, how could you get back the original sum?

Yu Yan gave in. He felt that if he didn’t accept it, 1 would actually run to the livestream to spam him with gifts.

Yu Yan: [Collected 2000.00]

Yu Yan: [WillBeBoss’SlaveTonight.jpg]

: No need tonight.

Yu Yan stared at this sentence for a long time before he realized——that was a reply to his emoji??

Yu Yan: … So, I’ll do it when there’s a chance in the future?

: En.

What kind of fucking X-rated conversation was this?

Yu Yan’s mind immediately imagined the other side’s low and deep “en” sound, and his cheeks suddenly flushed. He quickly scooped up some water and patted it onto his face, but the heat on his face didn’t disappear for a long time.

The next day, he woke up to Lu Xiuhe’s QQ message.

Your Great Lord Lu: [webpage link] Hurry and go have a look.

Yu Yan was still sleepy. He yawned and slowly opened the website, but his phone automatically swapped to a video-playing layout.

… The title of the video was “The Must-Tell Beautiful Love Story between a Little Anchor and a Big Boss. [VoD Edit]”.

He opened it in a daze, and a completely girly BGM appeared. A girl sang softly——

The video showed a PUBG match, in which his character had his head lowered and was dropping an M24 on the ground.

His voice sounded out from within the background music. “You take this.”

It was followed by 1’s voice. “And… I just like to play with No. 2. No. 2, add me as a friend after this?”

The video showed Ruins. As his character ran, he said, “Wait for me , I’ll be back soon!”

“Okay, I’ll wait for you.”

Here, the game interface even had the effect of pink bubbles added to it.

…

The video was 3 minutes and 46 seconds long. Yu Yan went from squinting, to waking up, and finally to being dumbstruck——

With this video, why would he need to watch the livestream VoDs or listen to those few seconds of WeChat voice clips every day??

Your Great Lord Lu: Have you finished watching?

Yu Yan snapped out of it and replied: Finished watching.

Your Great Lord Lu: All the other anchors have “Amazing Kills Compilation” and “Chicken Eating Moment”. How come with you… What is this??

Yu Yan: ….

Your Great Lord Lu: Don’t be too sad. Someone will definitely edit a kills compilation video for you later.

Yu Yan: …

Your Great Lord Lu: Umm, I’ll ask you another question . What are your feelings after watching the video?

Yu Yan turned over and laid on his stomach on the bed. After carefully watching it for a second time, he clicked on the icon on the top left of his phone screen, bookmarked it, downloaded it, and then finally replied.

Yu Yan: Netizens are the most powerful people in the world.

Yu Yan: I’ll love netizens forever.

Juurensha: Hahahaha, Yanyan is a big fan of this video.

Divi: I can’t believe they already made an MV of Yanyan and Boss Yi. Damn the shippers are real LOL. At this point, I’m not sure if Yanyan already likes Boss Yi or if it’s still just his voice. Also, the BGM is really nice, it comes from a drama OST.
