At 4 p.m., a post-game interview for the PUBG Asia Championship finals was held—
“We’re also very sorry for M1G’s performance during the PUBG Asia Championship. We’re unworthy of our fans who like us.”
“However, this doesn’t have anything to do with the former captain, Angry, leaving the team. I know many of our fans online very much regret Angry’s departure. I also really regret it, but…”
RJJ, the new captain, paused and looked at the host with deep and regretful eyes. “M1G doesn’t need to make any shameless deals with the South Korean team…”
The audience was in an uproar.
M1G didn’t need to make any shameless deals with the South Korean team?
What did that mean?
In particular, the sentence was about being regretful that Angry left the team, but the sentiment that followed didn’t seem like they were missing their old captain at all. Instead, it felt sarcastic.
For a while after that, M1G’s fans, along with Angry’s fans, the former captain of M1G who had quit the team or even chose to retire from the game, started directly quarreling on the livestream’s barrage.
——[Angry played a fixed match? Is that what RJJ means?]
——[Hehe, the league didn’t hand out any penalties, so they’re just shit talking about match fixing?]
——[God A left and M1G immediately became trash because of this dog-like vice. The captain is quite good at spending money.]
——[Asking Angry to clarify whether his match against the South Korean team was fixed?]
——[RJJ is very good at bullshitting. He’s not good during the match, but his bullshitting game is strong.]
——[Get the fuck out of the pro league M1G! Get the fuck out of the pro league M1G!]
——[Angry, do you dare to come back?]
——[RJJ is awesome RJJ is awesome.]
——[Angry is awesome!]
Shen Qi’s slender fingers tapped on the keyboard twice. From the webcam’s view, only his hands and distinct knuckles could be seen resting atop the black-gold keyboard.
“M1G is not good this season ah…” He turned off the video before addressing his livestream viewers.
His left hand was clacking away on his cellphone.
——[The anchor is an anti?]
——[Strictly speaking, didn’t M1G make a post saying that they were going to win the championship? Yet, after God A left, hehe, forget the championship, they couldn’t even get in the top three.]
——[Garbage team]
——[Another mindlessly praising God A fan?]
Seeing the barrage, Shen Qi chuckled.
The God A they were talking about was M1G’s former captain.
The domestic e-sports industry was in a slump, and the Chinese team wasn’t outstanding during the competition. They couldn’t beat any of the international opponents and were often ridiculed.
Three years ago, M1G had won the PUBG Asia Championship for two consecutive years because of Angry’s joining the team. At the start of the third year, Angry suddenly announced he terminated his contract with M1G before the PUBG Asia Championship.
Angry’s move prompted numerous e-sports fans to ask questions.
M1G wasn’t actually a good team to be in.
They were all waiting for Angry to switch teams, but Angry chose to directly retire after leaving the team.

At that point, the fans went crazy.

Naturally, his fans didn’t believe that he was inheriting his family’s fortune. Although they left messages on Weibo every day and chased his ex-employer to interrogate them, Angry seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth.
This went on until the PUBG Asia Championship, when M1G’s captain, Rong Jing, took the initiative to mention it.
It seemed that there were some secrets behind Angry leaving the team.
Shen Qi clicked his tongue, and then chose to reply to the barrage’s comments.
As a new anchor, it was important to interact with the barrage.
His skills were good and his voice sounded nice, and plus, the camera showed a pair of beautiful hands when it was on.
In just one month, his number of fans had already passed ten thousand, which was a great achievement for a new anchor. The platform had privately contacted him several times, asking him to sign a contract with them.
He had rejected all of these requests.
After signing a contract, there would be constraints. Shen Qi found such rules and regulations very annoying.
“That’s right, I’m a brainlessly praising God A fan.” His eyes squinted as he laughed, his tone was relaxed, and his voice sounded clean and clear.
He replied to the most recent lines in the barrage, “I’m a God A fanboy, so how can I be regarded as an anti?”
“Don’t you guys think that God A staying in M1G was a waste of his talents?”
He laughed again and said in a low voice, “If you want me to list out God A’s strong points, then I can talk for three days and three nights.”
The barrage was immediately teased him——
[So gay? Counting God A’s strong points?]
[At this point, I can’t tell if Sweetie is a fan or an anti]
[Nowadays, they look at the face]
[AhHHHHHhh with God A’s attractiveness, I’m willing!]
[For Sweetie’s hands, I’m willing! I’ve already asked it so many times, I’m so tired: when will Sweetie turn on the facecam?]
Shen Qi licked his lower lip. “God A is both handsome and skillful. Who wouldn’t like him?”
He really did sound like an extreme fanboy.
He started a match while talking.
He was a proper gaming anchor.
The barrage once again went crazy because of these words of his that he said in a deliberately deep voice——
[AHHHHHHHHH SWEETIE DEEPENING HIS VOICE, I’M WILLING!]
[I thought he was just a milk puppy?]
[Fuck, reporting a porn anchor!]
When Shen Qi finished talking, he didn’t look at the barrage, but instead looked at his cellphone.
Just then, a message popped up——
Little Apprentice: ?? Ahhhhhhhh do you have no shame? You’re praising yourself???
Shen Qi clicked his tongue.
Your Qi Ge: What else can I say? Are you going to duo with me? If not, I’ll give this chance to my beloved little fans.
Little Apprentice: No, the coach is in the middle of scolding us, I’m going to be admonished. Good luck, Shifu 🙂
Shen Qi replied with a smiley-face emoticon.
He had personally raised this little apprentice, so he obviously understood his skill level.
He had watched all of M1G’s competition videos, and he could clearly see who the problem was.
Shen Qi silently sneered, then clicked open a livestream lottery.
As he opened the lottery, he said, “Considering that you guys like God A as much as I do, I’m going to offer a carry, and I’m going to select a lucky little cutie to join me in a sweet duo match.”
With that, the barrage went still for a bit before it started to scroll.
——[Sisters, do you remember the last stream follower who duoed with Sweetie and went into seclusion?]
——[I was that stream follower. I’ll never forget how when I asked where he was, he told me I should change my eyes, hehe.]
——[Who is going to be the brave person today?]
Although they said that, the number of people joining the lottery was still on the rise.
Shen Qi had opened a lottery for all viewers, not just people who gave gifts.
In general, he didn’t like the viewers sending him gifts. He didn’t lack this small amount of money.
Shen Qi was already used to this. He set the lottery duration to be for half an hour and directly went into the training grounds.
At the end of today’s PUBG Asia Championship matches, although he was living incognito and used the alias “Cyber Sweetie,” seeing M1G’s current performance made him feel a bit choked up, and also a bit…refreshed.
He clicked his tongue and chose a 98K.
The barrage became lively once again——
[Sweetie is truly worthy of being a fan! He likes everything that God A likes.]
Angry was different from other competitors. He always carried a 98K, even into the final circle. If he didn’t have one, then he would loot it off someone else.
[It’s not fun watching the training grounds’ moving targets ah.]
Shen Qi glanced at the barrage and said with a smile, “En, I’ll show you guys in-game what a real moving target is later.”
[It’s starting, it’s starting, he’s going to put on a show.]
[Both people and dogs are going to be part of the show.]
“Shut up. Are the mods here? Troubling you to ban them. In any case, I’m a person, so how could you say that I’m a dog?”
[?? I’m saying you’re a dog.]
[Wake up previous commenter, don’t frame dogs.]
“Mods, are you there? Troubling you to ban both of them.” Shen Qi clicked his tongue.
With such an interruption, the barrage was full of “hahaha,” a split second of incomparable harmony.
After practicing his shooting for a while, Shen Qi glanced at his cellphone. The system was about to automatically draw a winner for the lottery.
He quickly withdrew from the training grounds, and the barrage had become lively.
Although everyone spouted that they didn’t want to be drawn, Shen Qi’s skills were truly good. Being able to carry them as they played dead, even if he stabbed at their heart from time to time, they still wanted to win the lottery.
[Overhead Prairie: I’ll spam gifts if I win? Bros, can I trouble you to let me win?]
[Super Fierce: Who’s your bro here? We’re all sisters.]
This “Overhead Prairie” was an old fan and also this livestream’s moderator. He alone had been drawn 500 times already.
[Pink Loli Head: Bro, let me win. After we finish playing, I’ll go do my homework.]
[Overhead Prairie: Who’s your bro?]
“Pink Loli Head” was also an old livestream follower, and practically watched the livestream every day. They were even more active than “Overhead Prairie.”
The two of them always butted heads as soon as they met. The barrage instantly evacuated, leaving a private space as the two of them were busy quarreling with each other there.
Shen Qi looked at the lottery result. The winner was “Pink Loli Head.”
In this barrage, piled high with poisonous envy and killing hatred, “Overhead Prairie” and “Pink Loli Head” finally stopped attacking each other.
[Overhead Prairie: Garlic, you’re ruthless.]
[Pink Loli Head: AHHHHHHHHH SWEETIE! I won!]
They were visibly excited.
Shen Qi chuckled indifferently and said, “Congratulations to the cutie who won.”
“Cutie, do you want Gege to kiss you or do you want Gege to hug you?”
“Pink Loli Head” almost face planted onto their cellphone screen. He had just wanted to reply that he wanted both, when a mysterious force pulled at his ear.
“Ge…Ge! It hurts!” Fu Mingli held his cellphone in one hand and covered his ear with the other, propping his feet on the legs of the table to keep himself from falling over.
Fu Mingyuan narrowed his eyes and loosened his grip, before fixing his gaze on Fu Mingli’s cellphone.
In the lower right corner of the screen, a pair of hands, slightly pale under the light, were nimbly tapping away at the keyboard. Those hands’ knuckles were well-defined, and the fingers were slender, straight, and beautiful.
They resembled that person’s hands.
Probably because he hadn’t received a reply from Fu Mingli, the male anchor’s clear voice sounded out again, “Cutie, do you want Gege to hug you or do you want Gege to kiss you?”
Fu Mingyuan’s whole body froze, his eyebrows furrowed, and he took the cellphone from Fu Mingli’s hand.
Saying this kind of thing, it definitely couldn’t be that person.
“Ge…” Fu Mingli rubbed his hair, a little anxious.
“Ge, listen to me, I just coincidentally clicked on it…” With great difficulty, he had just managed to get the chance to duo with the anchor he liked, yet his elder brother who was supposed to attend an awards ceremony had suddenly come home.
Fu Mingyuan let out an “en” and said, “Tonight, after you finish your homework, copy out the Eight Honors and Eight Shames ten times.”
His tone was very cold.
Obviously, he didn’t believe Fu Mingli’s excuse.
He naturally knew his younger brother’s moral behavior. For a long time already, he had watched Fu Mingli continuously camp in the livestream and not do his homework properly. Today, after the awards ceremony finished, he directly came back without going back to the company and caught him in the act.
This male anchor, setting aside the fact he was a gaming anchor, but to even say “hug and kiss”? Wasn’t this him corrupting children?
After thinking about it, he spent some time looking for the chat box and then sent a message.
The livestream was gaudy, and their name was “Cyber Sweetie.” With one glance, you could tell they weren’t a proper anchor.
A short time later, a barrage message floated across the stream, with a top gifter’s distinct rainbow color.
[Pink Loli Head: Don’t corrupt minors.]
