Chapter 218 Sweet Duo Queue with Lin Xueyao

"Brother Ye, just tell us old fans the truth, have you really joined a professional club?"

Everyone's attention was focused on whether Ye Lan would join a professional esports team.

If a streamer becomes a professional player, they will likely lose followers in some respects.

Because as you accumulate more labels, you'll have fewer fans; this process is somewhat like purification in chemistry.

Simply put, Ye Lan is now a streamer. People like him because of the quality of his streams and also because they want to learn his techniques.

Once he has the label of a professional player, those fans who don't like that team will definitely stop supporting him.

The club certainly has its own fan base, but that's where the problem lies.

Ye Lan's arrival means that someone will have to leave.

That person's fans will definitely resent Ye Lan, so he can only gain a negligible number of fans.

With one increasing and the other decreasing, Ye Lan's fan base will gradually shrink.

However, those who remained were all true fans.

"You'll find out when I participate in the New Year's greeting show."

Ye Lan still did not directly tell her fans that she had declined the club's invitation.

Sometimes, to maintain long-term attention in life and work, you have to use ambiguous answers.

To pique other people's curiosity.

Sure enough, the fans were extremely anxious upon hearing this answer, scratching their heads in front of the screen.

"Fine, the King of Glory New Year's Greeting Show is going to tell us the answer, right? I'm going to send you up there no matter what."

"I'll get all the kids in the village to vote for Brother Ye right now."

"I always felt that Brother Ye was using this method to trick us into voting for him, but I have no proof."

........

Ye Lan used this vague answer to fool her fans in an attempt to entice them to vote for her.

To find out the answer, you'll have to get me on the live stage of the New Year's greeting show.

As the number of viewers in the live stream increased, Ye Lan's votes also grew rapidly, and she soon surpassed one person again.

"Speaking of which, what should we play today? The peak tournament doesn't seem to be getting much attention!"

Ye Lan glanced at the rankings on the peak list. The top two positions were still held by him and Lin Xueyao.

Previously, the third-place team was only 50 points behind, but now the gap is much larger, more than 100 points.

Because of the start of the King of Glory New Year's Greeting Show event, everyone has given up solo queue and peak matches.

How much popularity can one person generate when playing a game?

At this point, you should invite three or five friends to stream and play together.

That's how you generate buzz.

With popularity comes more fans and more viewers.

This also helps in canvassing votes.

In other words, apart from ordinary players, almost no streamers have been playing ranked matches or solo queue in the past few days.

Ye Lan wondered if she should invite a heavyweight streamer to duo queue with her to boost her popularity.

However, he hasn't been in the industry for very long. He knows quite a few streamers, but probably no one is willing to help him.

During the voting process, everyone is a competitor.

To do a live stream with your competitors? That's ridiculous!

"Brother Ye, you can do a live stream with Lin Xueyao."

"Yeah, yeah, since you don't know what to play, playing duo queue with Lin Fupo is a good choice."

"I'm also quite curious about what kind of relationship Brother Ye and Rich Lady Lin have now."

.......

When the topic shifted to relationships, the fans' gossip instincts were reignited.

Ye Lan felt quite troubled; humans' curiosity was still too strong.

However, the audience's suggestion still gave Ye Lan an idea.

Although Lin Xueyao is not a game streamer, she occasionally posts videos of her gameplay that are easy to watch, so she still has many game fans.

In addition, she already has tens of millions of fans, so doing a live stream with her is indeed a good choice.

However, Ye Lan was really struggling to cope with Lin Xueyao's onslaught.

A young, beautiful, voluptuous girl with a cute, doll-like face and a mature, sophisticated air takes the initiative to get close to you and showers you with money from time to time.

Anyone would be confused in this situation.

"There shouldn't be any problem with friends playing games together in duo queue, right?"

Ye Lan stopped worrying about it, exited the game, and sent a message to Lin Xueyao.

"exist?"

"Your little cutie is ready.jpg"

A little white rabbit stood straight, and then a saluting emoji was sent.

In the eyes of boys, girls sending cute emojis is a huge plus.

The creation of emojis stemmed from the fact that text was too cold and impersonal, and emojis could serve to add a touch of warmth and color.

“I lost a bet with my fans, and they asked me to invite you to join in. If it’s inconvenient for you, then forget it.”

Ye Lan directly shifted the blame to netizens with a single sentence.

The purpose of doing this was to prevent Lin Xueyao from misunderstanding that it wasn't that I wanted to play with her, but rather that it was all the result of netizens egging me on.

Ye Lan curiously opened the voice message sent by Lin Xueyao, and a soft, sweet voice flashed through her mind like an electric current.

"Guess if I've been watching your live stream?"

Lin Xueyao went back to her hometown a while ago, and her only way to pass the time every day was to watch Ye Lan's live stream.

When she sees someone praising Ye Lan, she feels happy; when she sees someone slandering Ye Lan, she angrily retorts; and when she sees the jeering comments in the live chat, she feels a secret joy and sweetness...

Later, every time Ye Lan went live, Lin Xueyao would stop what she was doing to watch. Before she knew it, she had become one of Ye Lan's most loyal fans.

Ye Lan felt embarrassed when his lie was exposed. He really didn't expect that Lin Xueyao had been in the live broadcast room the whole time.

"Then will you come?"

Now that the lie has been exposed, there is no need to cover it up anymore.

"I've already logged in, (*^▽^*)"

Seeing this, Ye Lan smiled and then exited the chat interface and opened the game.

Seeing this, the audience and fans understood immediately: things were settled.

"Seeing how happy Brother Ye is, it must be because Lin Xueyao agreed to Sweet Duo queue request."

"There's nothing we can do about it; after all, Lin Xueyao was the one pursuing me in this relationship."

"I smoked three gas cylinders, but I still can't figure it out. I don't understand what it is about Brother Ye that attracts Lin Xueyao."

.........

Ye Lan looked at the comments in the live stream, covered her face, and smiled bitterly.

He cursed inwardly, "Isn't it normal that you guys haven't figured it out? I haven't figured it out either!"

Just as he was complaining, a team-up invitation appeared on his phone screen.

"Lin Xueyao" invites you to participate in a team game.

Ye Lan clicked "accept," and a clear, bell-like sound came from her phone.

"Drive faster, drive faster."

Ye Lan then realized that she had become the homeowner and couldn't help but complain, "Couldn't you have just pulled me in and opened the house yourself? Why did you have to hand over the homeownership to me? What a hassle."

After venting, I clicked the match button.

"Why are you so happy today?" Ye Lan noticed Lin Xueyao's change in mood and asked curiously.

"Because I can play games with you!" Lin Xueyao said with a grin.

"Why haven't I seen you this happy before?"

"Because this is the first time you've asked me to play games, of course I'm happy."
