Chapter 73 - Garbage dog food.
Within the short span of seconds, the chat was completely bombed.
【KK?? Do you still remember your character design??】
【WTH is with that tone, it’s so greasy!】
【I’m just putting it out there, but if someone were to tell me that they’re not in a secret relationship, I won’t believe it.】
【Where did this fake K come from! Actors can’t survive in live broadcast rooms, I’m telling you!】
Over a thousand comments floated across the screen but they were akin to leaves that breezed past Kang Shengzhe without touching him. In the team chat, he continued to type: — Liang Liang?
【Liang Liang? Hiss! Even idol dramas don’t dare to use such names!】
【Ahaha I’m really confused, wasn’t the entire ‘carrying a girl is pretty cool’ just a meme? There’s actually a continuation to the joke? And it even came out from the left field?】
【I feel like we’ve overlooked a very important plot development in between.】
【Secretly typing up a bad review! Negative ratings!】
The audience in the live broadcasting room were not the only ones who were bewildered; even You Liangxing himself was entirely at a loss. From the time of the invite, he knew that it was currently Kang Shengzhe’s working time, so how could he possibly invite him now? Even worse, why was it coming from his main account?
You Liangxing replied: — Are you broadcasting?
Kang Shengzhe: — If I said no, would you believe it?
After the sentence was sent out, and under the witness of millions of fans in the live broadcasting room, Little Angel Liang Liang replied with a series of ellipsis before he exited the room.
Kang Shengzhe: ???
Although Kang Shengzhe’s expression could not be seen, his voice of surprise was completely captured by the live broadcasting room, and his fans started making excited noises in the chat.
【ahahahahhaha!! He got dumped!!】
【??? I thought the stream would become a scene of dog abuse, but I didn’t expect that it would become a large breakup scene??】
【Why did I suddenly laugh out loud after seeing KK being humiliated? XD】
【Okay, this Little Angel Liang Liang will do.】
Kang Shengzhe cleared his throat and said: “What are you laughing at, have you never seen flirtatious banter? Liang Liang is just playing around with me.”
The live broadcasting room suddenly stirred. Although everyone had been joking around and saying that there was an illicit affair going on, the joke sounded completely different when it came out of Kang Shengzhe’s mouth.
【Flirtatious banter??? Why do I only see KK being dumped.】
【Eh??? You’re actually admitting to it?? You’re not really trying to fool around with another family’s daughter, are you!!】
【WTH, I just met my husband yesterday…】
After the incident where KK had been blasted in voice chat by a Zhong Kui playing You Liangxing, everyone who was there to witness it had a.s.sumed that You Liangxing was female in gender. Not only that, since the old joke about k2018;carrying girl is pretty cool’ was brought up again, many new fans who were not aware of the incident took the opportunity to search for it on Baidu.
As Kang Shengzhe continued to insist that it was flirtatious banter, he sent Little Angel Liang Liang another invite. Very quickly, You Liangxing re-entered the room. Kang Shengzhe said happily: “Did you see that? I told you, Liang Liang would never abandon me.”
【I’ll just quietly watch as you delude yourself…】
【As long as it makes you happy.】
Kang Shengzhe repeated his sentence: — Let’s play games together.
Little Angel Liang Liang replied, saying: — Hold on.
Since he had re-entered the live broadcasting toom, it was evident that You Liangxing did not care much for the fact that Kang Shengzhe was live broadcasting. As he told him to ‘hold on’, he took out his tablet to open Kang Shengzhe’s live broadcasting room. His eyes swept across the screen, and he noticed that only the game was being broadcasted.
You Liangxing typed: — Where’s your face?
Kang Shengzhe: — Ah?
You Liangxing: — You’re not turning on your camera?
Previously, Kang Shengzhe had revealed his face in the broadcast in Beijing, and You Liangxing had presumed that he was going to continue this habit, which led to him casually asking the question. Although You Liangxing did not have any other intention when he asked that question, it was perceived differently in Kang Shengzhe’s eyes and he immediately responded.
Kang Shengzhe said: — Are you watching my live broadcast?
Before You Liangxing had the time to react, Kang Shengzhe laughed lightly and said: “Why, do you want to see me?”
His voice was clear and it was br.i.m.m.i.n.g with ambiguity. Since You Liangxing had the live broadcast opened, he could hear all of it. He did not know why but he kept feeling like this sentence brought about a strong sense of déjà vu.
In an instant, a memory flashed across his mind. And as if he had predicted how the situation would develop to some extent, Kang Shengzhe did not wait for him to speak before he said coolly: “I understand, I’ll open it immediately.”
You Liangxing: ……
Live broadcasting room: !!???
After experiencing a strange moment of silence, the entire live broadcasting room basically surged from the stimulation that the turn of events gave.
【What???? He’ll open it immediately?? Weren’t you refusing to open it, regardless of life or death?】
【Didn’t you say you wanted a spiritual connection! Are you going to forsake your shining soul just because Liang Liang said one line!】
【Wait! What kind of development is this!! Is he really going to turn it on!?】
【HOLY!!!!!! Although it’s super unexpected but it seems like we’ll get to see KK’s face??!!】
【Is this real or fake? It can’t be, right??】
While they were talking, a small video frame appeared in the lower left corner of the screen. Initially, it was completely black, but after a few rustling noises, the camera quickly lit up with an image.
A palm was covering half of the frame first, but after the palm left, it clearly displayed the beautiful visage that the fans had been longing for.
He actually! Really! Turned on his camera!
The audience could not control themselves and they exploded!
【AHHHH I’m going to die I’m going to die! This face value, it’s otherworldly!】
【WORTH IT! This night, no! This life is worth it!】
【I’ll never tire of this face even if I look at it a hundred times, his beauty is really explosive ahhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!! >_
【Licking the screen like crazy!!!! Happiness should not come so suddenly!!!】
Other than an entire wave of comments stating that they were licking their screens, there were quite a few fans who had knelt down as well.
【Holy mother of G.o.d!! With just one sentence, she really made KK turn on his camera, just how lethal is Sister Liang? I feel like I’ve been stuffed with dog food, bleh bleh bleh, it smells terrible!! I’m not eating it!!】
【If someone said that there’s nothing between them, I’m not believing it, ever…】
【Am I the only one who feels like KK just made everyone choke!!!】
【Did I go into the wrong theatre? This isn’t a game live broadcast, it’s a youth falls in love with the idol drama!】
【Everyone shush, I think I get it now, Liang Liang is the heroine of this fish pond.】
【Excuse me, KK, do you still remember Little Jian Jian who lives by the banks of Daming Lake?】
After turning on his camera, Kang Shengzhe, who was being licked by countless of fans, was not satisfied with his appearance. He tilted his head left and right before he abruptly said: “This won’t do, I need to steal my mom’s foundation, give a moment.” As he said that, he really ran out of the camera shot like smoke, and there was not a person in sight for a while.
Live broadcasting room: 【???? He actually ran?? Is KK that concerned about his appearance??】
【Stop messing around! Aren’t you a f.u.c.king game anchor? Are you going to change your profession to a beauty guru?】
After witnessing Kang Shengzhe’s sudden antics, You Liangxing had the terrible urge to roll his eyes. Despite his best efforts to tolerate it, he could only type in the dialog box because he had no intention to turn on his microphone: — Come back now!
It could be considered a talent to make You Liangxing use an exclamation mark. Although the fans were unaware of how annoyed You Liangxing was, the atmosphere was already being shoved in the same direction and they started cooperating with You Liangxing. Not long after, the entire live broadcasting room blotted out the sky and covered the earth with an endless barrage of comments.
【KK!! Sister Liang is asking you to come back!!】
【Did you hear that!! Sister Liang is asking you to come back to the live broadcasting room!!】
【Trash KK!! Sister Liang is calling you to come home!!】
Thankfully, Kang Shengzhe did not stay outrageous for long and he returned back in front of the camera very quickly. Although no foundation was truly applied, he did, in fact, comb through his hair seriously once. Men who kept their hair long while having a high face value and natural beauty were a rare sight; and his slow actions successfully made the face fans in the live broadcasting room collectively explode.
After he finished tying his ponytail, the act of Kang Shengzhe revealing his face pushed the atmosphere to the highest peaks. As the fans continued to tune in to his broadcast, many of them were aggressively promoting him on Weibo.
Naturally, it was not only Kang Shengzhe who was being pushed; the female protagonist of Kang Shengzhe’s tale of ‘carrying girls is pretty cool’ was being promoted with a greater momentum as well, and it included details of how their relationship was not normal and the fact that KK was fooling around with her in the live broadcasting room.
Meanwhile, Kang Shengzhe remained clueless as to what was trending between his fans. After he finished styling himself, he gave a bashful smile to the camera and asked: “What do you think? I look good, right?”
You Liangxing: “……”
No one knew who he was saying that to. Thus, half of the fans were shouting that he looked good, while the half was spitting at the dog food they were given.
【Shut up!! Don’t think I can’t see that you’re trying to tease Sister Liang!!!】
【Ahhhhh what the h.e.l.l is this situation, Stupid K, are you actually trying to carry a girl!!】
【Why is a single person like me getting hurt in a game broadcast and having to ask ‘why do you do this’?】
【Throwing down the dog food angrily!】
You Liangxing stared at the endless barrage, and he felt his eyes blur from the sheer variety of comments there were. He had accepted the invite because he wanted to play games, and thus, he was too lazy to say more. Coldly and calmly, he said: — Start it.
Kang Shengzhe immediate pressed on the b.u.t.ton to start the matchmaking process. Since it was nighttime, there were a lot of player in game and they entered the hero selection screen in less than a second. Kang Shengzhe’s good mood on the rise. He chose Han Xin while You Liangxing chose a mage for the middle lane.
Upon closer a.n.a.lysis, game anchors pulling in teammate for a duo queue was a frequent occurrence; and in accordance to that norm, it should not be strange for a person to be pulled into the broadcast, especially when they had appeared once before. However, because You Liangxing had been a part of a joke prior to this, and in addition to Kang Sheng’s att.i.tude towards him, it was obvious that their relationship was not normal, no matter how it was looked at.
When the game began, Han Xin started clearing his jungle. Monopolising all the resources in as the jungler has always been the standard norm, but during this match, Kang Shengzhe would constantly ask questions before he harvested the gold.
“Liang Liang! Do you want this red?”
“Liang Liang~ Would you like this this blue?”
“Liang Liang, do you want this kill?”
You Liangxing did not have his speech function turned on, but that did not stop the fans from being generous with their barrage of comments.
【Are you really KK? Don’t you like killing the fathers the most!】
【KK is giving someone else his buffs, this is truly terrifying…】
【Aren’t you being a little too crazy with your affections! Is it really okay for you to be this obvious~?】
Although Kang Shengzhe wandered through the entire map to catch his opponents, it will still apparent that he gave the most attention not the middle lane because he would always check the map for the situation in the middle even as he was killing someone.
The response from the live broadcasting room was extremely fast:
【Middle lane middle lane! KK, go and save her! 】
【It’s here!! The moment where the hero saves the beauty!!!!】
The audience in the live broadcasting room was a mix of old and new fans, but when they had become his fans did not matter; neither of the groups have seen You Liangxing and Kang Shengzhe broadcast together before. No one was clear about You Liangxing’s skill level, and even fans who had watched the Zhong Kui incident and the latter half of the Da Ji match could only admit that they had a vague impression of it.
They are tensed up for the game – because the overall impression of KK was that he was someone who ‘carried girls’, it made most of the fans a.s.sume that Sister Liang’s skill level was below Kang Shengzhe’s and she needed someone to carry her. Hence, many fans were teasing Kang Shengzhe as they waited for him to show off his skills in front of Little Angel Liang Liang.
【Quickly, hurry hurry!! KK take down those four kills!!】
