CH 13

On the other side of the screen that he couldn’t see, Jiang Song furrowed his brow and remained silent, feeling the impact of the words he had just read.

According to the KPL regulations, professional players are not allowed to use profanity in public settings such as during matches, although trash talk is allowed and is often a pre-match ritual in many competitions.

Although professional players may be provoked or attacked by haters in private, they may also curse a few times in response. However, to be honest, even if someone who rarely swears becomes extremely angry, they may not use extremely vulgar language.

This was the first time Jiang Song had faced such close proximity to an “internet troll,” let alone one who had earlier in the morning used his youthful and slightly embarrassing voice to sing a not-so-good but very cute song about a small frog.

Sigh.

Jiang Song’s face twisted in shock as he took a deep breath.

“This kid, how does he have a third face?”

Is this the legendary Thousand-Armed Guanyin, with not just one or two faces?

The barrage of comments was similarly suffocating.

Even though Jiang Song was used to seeing Xie Yao’s keyboard warrior-like appearance with seemingly a thousand hands, whenever he saw him flaming someone, he still felt a sense of fear being under the control of a keyboard warrior.

Especially for those who were both bad at the game and loved to play, the immersion was too strong, and they had already been scolded to the point of quitting the game.

However, there are always some clever little devils who can break through the crowd and accurately capture a few words they want to hear from a pile of useless but impactful words.

For example —

: Damn, I just want to ask, am I the only one who heard this guy call his boss his husband???

: Please step aside, not just you!

: Fuck, if you guys didn’t speak up, I would’ve thought I was hallucinating!

: Unlike me, my husband only buys skins for me’? Listen, can a serious male anchor say that?

: The moment the word ‘husband’ came out of your mouth, I felt like I wasn’t watching a game livestream, but some kind of midnight online gambling room.

One fan started it, and instantly a bunch of like-minded people exploded, so the topic that Xie Yao had previously hinted to avoid was once again exploding under the boiling sugar.

The barrage comments became increasingly inappropriate for publishing on Jinjiang, and when Xie Yao finally realized what was going on, these fans were just a step away from planning a wedding banquet for them.

Xie Yao: ?What are you guys talking about, I don’t understand!

Xie Yao had just finished venting his anger on someone, and he usually liked to make ambiguous comments. Every time he argued with someone, he would use sarcasm, which led to his spontaneous, stupid comment just now. He blurted out the word “husband” following the stupid words of that person Yao, and now he regretted it.

Xie Yao: …

Xie Yao: This is what I would like to call “harming the enemy a thousand times and hurting oneself eight hundred times”.

CP fans couldn’t be stopped. As Xie Yao read the barrage, he grew more and more angry, his heart beating so fast he couldn’t breathe. He clicked on the match details, then the report button, and reported the other player for cursing and feeding.

The report was successful and the other couple lost eight points of credibility. But before Xie Yao could even feel a hint of satisfaction, he received a system message:

“You have been warned for being reported!

Due to a report by a player in your game on June x, 2021, the system has determined that the report is valid. As punishment, your credibility points have been deducted by 8 and you have been banned from chatting for 360 hours. Please follow the game rules in the future!

Xie Yao’s face remained expressionless, but inside he seethed with anger. He had been pushed too far. This stupid game wasn’t worth playing anymore. He uninstalled it.

The barrage fans saw that in the small box in the lower right corner of the live broadcast page, the small anchor’s hand was shaking wildly, as if he had Parkinson’s from being angered, and then frantically clicked on the interface, wanting to uninstall the game!

The barrage repeatedly tried to stop him!

: Don’t do it, don’t do it. You still have to make a living. If you uninstall the game, what will you live on?

: Don’t be angry, wah wah wah. Pray that Mirror’s ten wives will not be discovered by Yao!

: Calm down, calm down. If you ruin your health, who will take care of you?

Xie Yao directly sneered, his noble and glamorous posture extremely haughty when responding to the barrage. “I won’t play this garbage game anymore! I have hands and feet. I don’t believe that Shark TV can starve people to death! I won’t work today, what kind of thing is this?”

: Stay calm, my dear. If you’re not broadcasting, how will you make a living? Let me throw a grenade at you to blow off some steam~

Xie Yao expressed his disdain, “I’ve long looked down upon the game section’s traffic. If push comes to shove, I’ll just go to the next-door entertainment section and sing and dance. Can’t take this infuriating game anymore!”

“But I feel bad for that water friend who goes by the username Bring me a man.’ I got him banned from chatting for half a month.”

The barrage fell silent for a moment, then their survival instinct kicked in and they strongly advised, :

Just forget it, we don’t have the means to do that.

: Besides, even if you sing and dance without showing your face, you won’t make much money. If you do show your face, you won’t be happy about it!

: To be honest, if you really show your face, I’ll immediately launch a spaceship and blow it up!

: +1

: Me too!

: So, are you tempted?

The barrage joked around and immediately made Xie Yao burst out laughing in anger. He laughed and cursed, “I thought you guys were watching my live stream to learn some skills, but it turns out you just want to see my face?”

: Hey, the way you’re talking, who among the serious people watches your skills?

: Who among the serious people watches your skills?

: Who among the serious people watches your skills?

…

Jiang Song had been watching for a while on the side. The host was Xie Yao, and Xie Yao couldn’t enter the game if he didn’t start it. Seeing him chatting happily with the barrage, Jiang Song also heard that his tone had lost the heaviness it had at the beginning.

After watching for a while, Jiang Song was infected by Xie Yao’s energetic and youthful aura, and a smile appeared on his face.

This kid is like a little sun.

As the conversation continued on both sides, Jiang Song remained patient. Suddenly, he clicked on the reward interface, without saying a word, and confidently and boldly sent another universe spaceship.

The VIP special effects that cost over ten thousand in the live broadcast room were shining brightly, very dazzling.

The barrage : Wow!

: Are all you rich people in here the type to just throw gifts without saying a word?

: I’m calling out ‘Dad’ first!

: If you don’t understand, just ask. Is it still okay to call someone ‘Dad’ now?

The newly crowned public daddy of the live streaming room finally spoke up: “So you have to give gifts to listen to songs? I didn’t understand before, but I’ll make up for it now.”

In the live stream, Xie Yao suddenly froze, almost immediately remembering his silly appearance from last night when he was hiding in his hotel room, playing the “Little Frog” game sneakily.

The boss was truly skilled in finding an opening to attack, bringing up something that Xie Yao didn’t want to be reminded of.

Both of them knew exactly what the other was talking about, but the bullet screen was clearly unaware of their secret dealings. Most of them misunderstood Jiang Song’s reference to the day they drew crystals and the little frog who didn’t sing the lyrics properly.

: The boss is not picky at all. He rewards whatever song you sing honestly.

: What kind of songs does the boss like? I sing really well. Don’t charge 998 or 98. Only charge 9.8 yuan! Oh, boss, look at me!

: Why do I feel like something’s not right? Didn’t the boss already spend 20,000 yuan that night?

There were always some clever little ghosts who could smell the oddity and raised questions.

Xie Yao was startled and quickly interrupted the truth-seeking king, “Will you shut up? We’re getting ready for the next round.”

As he spoke, he turned to Jiang Song, who had been quietly scheming: “Boss, get ready, we’re about to start.”

He finally understood that this boss looked aloof, but was actually a troublemaker who loved to stir up trouble and create chaos.

But he couldn’t refute him, he had given too much already, wuwuwu.

Later, Xie Yao didn’t use a support anymore and played as a mid-laner, racking up kills and showing off in the crowd, effortlessly collecting heads.

In addition to having Jiang Song with a disguised account, the two of them won all night, breaking through the opponents and carrying their teammates. In several matches, even the enemy team surrendered on their own.

It made Xie Yao exclaim that there was no game experience.

His daily fixed streaming time was not actually very long, yesterday’s stream was just an exception. Today, he started streaming at 6 pm and streamed for four hours. By almost 10 pm, Xie Yao ended his stream.

After closing the stream, Xie Yao checked his income in the backstage and found that his income today was double the usual, with most of it coming from Jiang Song.

Looking at the balance waiting for withdrawal, Xie Yao couldn’t help but stare at his phone in amazement.

Is this the happiness of being sponsored by wealthy fans?

Yesterday’s income had already been deposited, Xie Yao sorted it out and sent payments to both sides, leaving only two thousand for himself as emergency funds.

Just as he received the bank deduction information, a message popped up on the Shark TV backstage.

The sender was user 4958021.

Xie Yao clicked on the message and was instantly hit by a straight pitch.

User 4958021: “Kid, do you use WeChat? Add me on WeChat.”

Xie Yao: “I am a legitimate streamer.”

On the other end, Jiang Song burst out laughing. “What are you thinking? We played well together, and I just want to play a few more games with you. Direct messages during the stream are too inconvenient, so why don’t we use WeChat to communicate?”

Sensing the hesitation of the other streamer, Jiang Song casually added, “I’ll give you a cosmic spaceship gift tomorrow.”

Xie Yao immediately refused, “No, no need. I sent you my WeChat ID, but you really don’t have to send me any gifts. That’s not what I meant.”

Jiang Song’s tone was decisive, “My money, my rules. Remember to add me on WeChat later.”

After finishing his live stream, Jiang Song immediately closed the app and pasted the copied WeChat ID into the search box. A user named “gad” popped up.

Jiang Song glanced at it, raised his eyebrows, and after adding it, the other side almost immediately approved the request.

Then, a message came through: “Hello boss!” with a cat emoji attached.

This obedient message was quite different from the same anchor who was just trash-talking everyone in the game.

Jiang Song typed directly: “Do you like praise?”

Xie Yao’s WeChat profile picture was taken when he first joined the Sus team as the new captain and won the first world championship MVP. It was quite a long time ago, but because of its significance, Jiang Song still had a deep impression of it.

He just didn’t expect that this small anchor who was right up his alley would turn out to be his fan, which surprised Jiang Song a bit.

But before he could even smile, Xie Yao’s message arrived, and the smile that hadn’t appeared on Jiang Song’s face froze.

“Yep, I’m praise’s husband fan, hehe!”
