Chapter 85 - I came to borrow your bathroom

“Today, I’m not drawing stream followers. I’ll play squad matches with passer-bys for a while.”

？？？ mBVq x

Xiao Yan, don’t be too sad. It’s all over.

Yes ah, and there’s also Boss 1 here!

“Sad?” Yu Yan asked, “Why am I sad?”

A bunch of question marks flashed on the screen at once. F2Q9zY

“You guys are referring to the things on Weibo?” Yu Yan seemed to have just understood, and his tone was as usual when he said, “I have already reported that post, and no one should take it seriously.”

So you mean that the contributor to Livestream Express was fake?

“You can’t trust everything on the Internet,” Yu Yan replied ambiguously.

Wtf! I even cried after reading!! Return my tears!!! h2NTtK

I was just saying ma, how could a company be so stupid? Setting aside not paying, daring to sue the other party for breach of contract… Isn’t that just courting death?

Fuck, return my little star from just now!

“Can return, just send your client account ID in a private message to the stream mods, and I’ll return half.” Yu Yan said, “The rest… You’ll have to go find the platform.”

The stream moderator watched with her own eyes as the number of people in the barrage suddenly fell from five figures to four figures. She had planned on calling several more helpers in to help ban people, but unexpectedly, Yu Yan had managed to kill the flow with just two or three sentences. uWKAIb

What to say, even though less traffic was a pity, she was still happy to know that this matter was fake.

On the other hand, Lu Xiuhe couldn’t figure it out at all.

Although it wasn’t very good for that Livestream Express to just disclose people’s private matters like that, it was all true ya.

He used to think this kind of person—who took other people’s private affairs out to distribute to the public, and even did so anonymously—was disgusting. However, after seeing the comments below the post, he thought it had actually turned out for the better. d8pzWX

At least no one was scolding Xiao Yan.

He refreshed his Weibo to see how the comments would change after Yu Yan’s message. Who would have known that after refreshing it, only one system prompt would pop up——

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

“This Weibo does not exist.”

After two days of this farce, the curiosity index of stream followers who weren’t in the know about the existence of an anchor called ‘yanxyan’ had reached the peak. oDvJ61

After Yu Yan had been streaming for several hours, he lowered his head to take a glance at his popularity level: around 10 million.

No wonder Tuantuan signed with a marketing team—such popularity built up too fast.

How long is the anchor playing today? Still not ending the stream yet?

Today’s New Year? Extra streaming?

Xiao Yan, stop for a meal ba….

He and Yi Chen seemed to have made an agreement that today no one would take the lead in saying the first sentence.

His silence was because he was avoiding him, but what about Yi Chen?

Because he was livestreaming, Yu Yan couldn’t think deeply about it. He looked up and said, “Don’t worry… After this match, I’ll end it.” d7qcDb

When the plane took off, all of his teammates, in a very coordinated manner, selected a point above Pochinki.

After landing, Yu Yan quickly ran into a room. While he was picking up a gun, a message popped out on the barrage assistant—

1 has entered the livestream.

He was stunned and before he could say anything— qmy12P

1 has left the stream.

“……”

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

？？？

Did my eyes glitch?! cTzdFU

Wtf, your eyes didn’t glitch!! Boss 1 just came in!

…… Then why did he leave again?

Hearing the sound of footsteps made Yu Yan snap out of it quickly. He opened the door, shot downwards, and killed the two people downstairs in a flash. He managed to say, “Maybe he has things to do ba, everyone, don’t message about it.”

By the time he ended his livestream, it was already half past ten. QvZznU

Yu Yan sat in his gaming chair and looked at the black screen in front of him, and didn’t move for a long time.

He didn’t know how long he sat like that before he slowly raised his head and looked around the room. His gaze fixed onto the envelope lying on the top of the shoe cabinet.

It was a notice announcing that his area would soon be demolished.

In fact, the buildings in this area should have been torn down and rebuilt a long time ago. All the houses here were dilapidated and often leaky. Many heads of households had already moved away from here. They were willing to rent their houses out, but didn’t want to live in them themselves. 5H96pz

It wasn’t as if Yu Yan didn’t have nowhere to go either. The money he had made as an accompanying player was enough for him to rent a better house.

He just couldn’t quite give it up.

This house was the only thing his parents had left him.

He raised his hand and placed the earphones down. He didn’t dare to think about it any more, so he got up and picked up his pajamas, then went to the bathroom. J0HcUA

Before entering, Yu Yan thought of something.

He hesitated for a moment before he picked up his cellphone and clicked on WeChat chat.

Yu Yan: You just came by the livestream, is something the matter?

Yu Yan: I have a cold today, and I can’t speak. Won’t video call today, save it until tomorrow… we can talk longer, is that okay? BN38fr

His cellphone still hadn’t received a reply after he came out of the bathroom.

It was already nearly eleven o’clock, and Yi Chen should have been done with work.

It was raining outside, Yu Yan could even hear the pattering sound of rain. He held his cellphone and saw that there wasn’t even a “Typing” prompt on the screen. Finally, he couldn’t help himself and voice-called Yi Chen.

The other side picked the call up quickly, and the man’s voice sounded a little deeper than usual, and accompanying his voice were some small noises. “….What’s the matter?” IFygfk

Yu Yan said, “No… I was just a little worried when you didn’t reply.”

“Saw it, just didn’t have time to reply.”

Yu Yan went silent for a bit. “Is that so?”

“En.” The other side paused, and then said, “Let’s talk later.” hg1X56

When the call was over, WeChat displayed that the call had lasted for 13 seconds.

It was also the shortest voice call they had had since they met.

He was staring blankly at his cellphone when a QQ message popped up.

Your Great Lord Lu: Xiao Yan, are you asleep? g8 QBv

Yu Yan: Not yet, what’s the matter?

Your Great Lord Lu: Come out. I’ll treat you to barbecue.

Yu Yan: Don’t you have class tomorrow?

Your Great Lord Lu: Only in the afternoon. Si4eQo

Your Great Lord Lu: I won’t say too much, but I don’t think it’s good for you to be alone right now. Come out and have a drink ba. I’ll accompany you, and once you drink until you’re refreshed, everything will be fine after you get up tomorrow.

Thinking back on the sensation of having been drunk before, Yu Yan could feel his stomach start to faintly ache.

Your Great Lord Lu: Don’t worry, we’ll just drink at the place below my house. After we finish drinking, we can just go to my house and sleep it off. It’ll all be fine!

Yu Yan was moved. He was in a really bad mood and indeed wanted to find some way to vent. ZEBFpl

It would also be good for him to find something else to shift his attention to.

Yu Yan: Okay, I’ll be right there.

He changed his clothes two or three times before he picked up his wallet and cellphone, and went out.

As he was locking the door, he heard footsteps coming from his right. ENQB63

They were steady and powerful, and very obvious in the dark.

He instinctively looked sideways, and after he saw the person who was heading up, his eyes widened——

There was a man standing in the stairwell.

Familiar features, familiar smell—it was the person who had just said he was busy on the phone—Yi Chen. FgC2Z0

He had obviously just left right after finishing work; the rain had been too heavy, and the stairs weren’t covered, so his gray suit was dyed dark, and his hair was flattened by beads of water—it was as if his whole person had stepped through a curtain of rain. When he heard the sound of movement, he stopped heading up the stairs, and he looked up to meet Yu Yan’s gaze.

Yu Yan froze in his action of locking the door, and even his breathing came to a halt for a few moments.

It was at this instant that he realised that he hadn’t really wanted to avoid him, and also that he hadn’t really wanted to not video-call him.

Only after this person really appeared standing in front of him did he understand how much he had missed him. G8bBh0

After seeing him, Yu Yan’s terrible mood, which he had been holding back all day, inexplicably surged in this moment. These emotions erupted so fast that he couldn’t hold it in well, and after a moment, even his eyes turned a bit red.

When Yi Chen saw him, his eyebrows almost imperceptibly twisted, and then he kept heading up, walking step by step up right up to his side.

As soon as he had seen that Weibo post, he had immediately asked some people to deal with it.

However, this action of his had still come too late; by the time he had found out, the Weibo post already had thousands of comments. aqGmPS

While he exhorted people to handle it, he also asked his subordinates to book a ticket to Manyang.

He didn’t think too much about it; he had just wanted to accompany Yu Yan, not really having the heart to let him face these things alone. Those people thought they were being “just”, but all they were doing was turning over other people’s sad past events to give further play to their “compassion”. They didn’t care at all whether bringing up these past events would hurt the involved parties again.

Yu Yan returned to his senses, licked his lips in a daze, and then after a long time managed to squeeze out the words, “…Why are you here?”

Yi Chen raised his hand, and casually flicked some water out of his hair. SIjcBN

There was so much water that they could even hear the sound of it dripping onto the floor.

“I came to borrow your bathroom,” he said.

Chrysanthemum Garden.

Yu Yan: “…”

Juurensha: On one hand, eeeeeee Boss Yi coming to visit Yanyan and keep him company during these hard times! On the other, goddamnit Boss Yi, you should tell Yanyan that, even if you’re dripping wet and need a bath hahaha. Also, LXH is such a good friend.

In fact, the buildings in this area should have been torn down and rebuilt a long time ago. All the houses here were dilapidated and often leaky. Many heads of households had already moved away from here. They were willing to rent their houses out, but didn’t want to live in them themselves. 5H96pz

It wasn’t as if Yu Yan didn’t have nowhere to go either. The money he had made as an accompanying player was enough for him to rent a better house.

He just couldn’t quite give it up.

This house was the only thing his parents had left him.

He raised his hand and placed the earphones down. He didn’t dare to think about it any more, so he got up and picked up his pajamas, then went to the bathroom. J0HcUA

Before entering, Yu Yan thought of something.

He hesitated for a moment before he picked up his cellphone and clicked on WeChat chat.

Yu Yan: You just came by the livestream, is something the matter?

Yu Yan: I have a cold today, and I can’t speak. Won’t video call today, save it until tomorrow… we can talk longer, is that okay? BN38fr

His cellphone still hadn’t received a reply after he came out of the bathroom.

It was already nearly eleven o’clock, and Yi Chen should have been done with work.

It was raining outside, Yu Yan could even hear the pattering sound of rain. He held his cellphone and saw that there wasn’t even a “Typing” prompt on the screen. Finally, he couldn’t help himself and voice-called Yi Chen.

The other side picked the call up quickly, and the man’s voice sounded a little deeper than usual, and accompanying his voice were some small noises. “….What’s the matter?” IFygfk

Yu Yan said, “No… I was just a little worried when you didn’t reply.”

“Saw it, just didn’t have time to reply.”

Yu Yan went silent for a bit. “Is that so?”

“En.” The other side paused, and then said, “Let’s talk later.” hg1X56

When the call was over, WeChat displayed that the call had lasted for 13 seconds.

It was also the shortest voice call they had had since they met.

He was staring blankly at his cellphone when a QQ message popped up.

Your Great Lord Lu: Xiao Yan, are you asleep? g8 QBv

Yu Yan: Not yet, what’s the matter?

Your Great Lord Lu: Come out. I’ll treat you to barbecue.

Yu Yan: Don’t you have class tomorrow?

Your Great Lord Lu: Only in the afternoon. Si4eQo

Your Great Lord Lu: I won’t say too much, but I don’t think it’s good for you to be alone right now. Come out and have a drink ba. I’ll accompany you, and once you drink until you’re refreshed, everything will be fine after you get up tomorrow.

Thinking back on the sensation of having been drunk before, Yu Yan could feel his stomach start to faintly ache.

Your Great Lord Lu: Don’t worry, we’ll just drink at the place below my house. After we finish drinking, we can just go to my house and sleep it off. It’ll all be fine!

Yu Yan was moved. He was in a really bad mood and indeed wanted to find some way to vent. ZEBFpl

It would also be good for him to find something else to shift his attention to.

Yu Yan: Okay, I’ll be right there.

He changed his clothes two or three times before he picked up his wallet and cellphone, and went out.

As he was locking the door, he heard footsteps coming from his right. ENQB63

They were steady and powerful, and very obvious in the dark.

He instinctively looked sideways, and after he saw the person who was heading up, his eyes widened——

There was a man standing in the stairwell.

Familiar features, familiar smell—it was the person who had just said he was busy on the phone—Yi Chen. FgC2Z0

He had obviously just left right after finishing work; the rain had been too heavy, and the stairs weren’t covered, so his gray suit was dyed dark, and his hair was flattened by beads of water—it was as if his whole person had stepped through a curtain of rain. When he heard the sound of movement, he stopped heading up the stairs, and he looked up to meet Yu Yan’s gaze.

Yu Yan froze in his action of locking the door, and even his breathing came to a halt for a few moments.

It was at this instant that he realised that he hadn’t really wanted to avoid him, and also that he hadn’t really wanted to not video-call him.

Only after this person really appeared standing in front of him did he understand how much he had missed him. G8bBh0

After seeing him, Yu Yan’s terrible mood, which he had been holding back all day, inexplicably surged in this moment. These emotions erupted so fast that he couldn’t hold it in well, and after a moment, even his eyes turned a bit red.

When Yi Chen saw him, his eyebrows almost imperceptibly twisted, and then he kept heading up, walking step by step up right up to his side.

As soon as he had seen that Weibo post, he had immediately asked some people to deal with it.

However, this action of his had still come too late; by the time he had found out, the Weibo post already had thousands of comments. aqGmPS

While he exhorted people to handle it, he also asked his subordinates to book a ticket to Manyang.

He didn’t think too much about it; he had just wanted to accompany Yu Yan, not really having the heart to let him face these things alone. Those people thought they were being “just”, but all they were doing was turning over other people’s sad past events to give further play to their “compassion”. They didn’t care at all whether bringing up these past events would hurt the involved parties again.

Yu Yan returned to his senses, licked his lips in a daze, and then after a long time managed to squeeze out the words, “…Why are you here?”

Yi Chen raised his hand, and casually flicked some water out of his hair. SIjcBN

There was so much water that they could even hear the sound of it dripping onto the floor.

“I came to borrow your bathroom,” he said.

Chrysanthemum Garden.

Yu Yan: “…”

Juurensha: On one hand, eeeeeee Boss Yi coming to visit Yanyan and keep him company during these hard times! On the other, goddamnit Boss Yi, you should tell Yanyan that, even if you’re dripping wet and need a bath hahaha. Also, LXH is such a good friend.
