Chapter 99 - Your gift for no longer being single.


Edited by Noks


The chat with Yi Ran in the morning directly affected Yu Yan’s mood for the rest of the day.


For example, currently, he was manipulating the character in his hands with a serious expression on his face, as he hid on the bridge to collect the bridge-crossing toll. A car roared forward, and he stuck out his head to clearly determine the other party’s position. Then he immediately pointed a red dot scope at it——


[yanxyan eliminated WHOAMI007 by detonating the vehicle.]


His actions caused this notification to pop up on the upper-right corner of the screen, and then he collected the guns and loaded them. He simply told his teammates, “They’re all dead.”


His playing was still strong, but he just wasn’t interacting with his stream followers and teammates. From the beginning of the match to now, he had only said three sentences, and they had only been spoken when he had seen good things and had turned on his mic to ask his teammates if they wanted them or not.


Leaving this sentence behind, he got on his motorcycle, took the lead in rushing over to the other end of the bridge to loot, and then returned to the safe zone.


[After watching so many anchors, I haven’t seen anyone sweep cars away as beautifully as you do.]


[With these kinds of skills, why be an anchor ah? Someone wrote a request with their own blood, asking you to enter their team, consider CN7 a bit??]


[CN7 starters are so strong, are you just letting my Xiao Yan enter to become a substitute player? Son, I think QM is pretty good. QM had several players leave recently, so if you go, you can definitely start directly!]


[Isn’t the previous poster annoying ah? Don’t mention matters about teams in front of Xiao Yan, okay? Was whatever that happened before not distressing enough ah?]


His livestream had more stream followers now, so naturally, there were more quarrels taking place as well. As soon as any jarring noise appeared in the conversation, a quarrel would start. The administrator had assigned an extra stream moderator to help him recently, but it was obviously not enough.


Feeling that the lines in the barrage assistant in the upper left corner of the screen were flashing by faster and faster, Yu Yan took the time to glance at it, and only then did he sort of snap out of his silent state and open his mouth.


“How did you guys start quarreling over even this subject?” Yu Yan said, “I’m not planning on joining any teams. Besides, those teams would turn their noses up at me ya. Everyone, don’t talk about such meaningless topics.”


After he had streamed for a while, Yi Ran, who was sitting beside him, stood up.


“Xiao Yan, I’m not playing anymore. My friend and I made plans to go get a foot massage.” Yi Ran turned off his computer and asked him, “Want to go? Sitting in front of the computer all day, you must have a lot of problems in and around the waist. Let’s go, I’ll treat you to a massage.”


“I’m not going.” Seeing that Yi Ran wasn’t joining him in playing anymore, Yu Yan directly queued up for a solo match. “Do you want auntie to leave you some dinner in the microwave?”


“No need, I won’t be back for dinner,” Yi Ran said, then suddenly pointed to Yu Yan’s microphone with his finger, and mouthed, “Turn off the mic.”


Yu Yan froze, before turning off the mic in accordance with his words.


“Everything I told you this morning ba was just me talking randomly. Don’t take it to heart, it’s actually nothing serious.” Yi Ran had noticed that Yu Yan’s spirits were low and so comforted him.


“My Ge is a very independent person. Maybe he doesn’t even want my uncle and aunt to care for him. Besides, all that gossip that those awful relatives indulge in, my Ge also doesn’t take it to heart at all.”


Yu Yan’s mood wasn’t soothed by these words.


Yes, no one wanted to be controlled by their parents. However, parents weren’t there to just supervise their children, but were also a harbor and a pair of supporting arms.


Yu Yan had already lost this, so he was very clear about what it was like to be without a parents’ love and company.


And no one was a saint, so how could there be someone who would completely ignore the gossip of people around them? Even more so when those people were Yi Chen’s relatives.


“I know,” Yu Yan just replied with that. He laughed and said, “You go ahead ba.”


At the end of the meeting in the afternoon, just as Yi Chen walked out of the meeting room, his assistant came up with him and whispered, “President Yi, Haiming Group’s President Chen just called and said that he wanted to ask you to have dinner and reminisce about old days.”


“Not going.” Yi Chen said, “I have plans tonight.”


“Alright.” His assistant thought of something. “Driver Liu asked for leave at noon, so I will send you over in the evening ba? Then after you’re done, I can send you back.”


Yi Chen said, “No need, I’ll drive by myself.”


“I’m afraid that after you drink, there will be no one to send you back&#k2026;”


“I have plans at home, no need to send me back.” Yi Chen paused, before saying, “You’ve worked hard for the past few days. If nothing comes up, you can leave work early today.”


Tossing this sentence behind him, Yi Chen strode straight into his office.


His assistant was left stuck in the same spot, lost in a daze.


Have plans at home… What kind of plans were those?


When Yi Chen got home, he put his laptop and all his documents on the sofa, and then walked into the computer room.


Being afraid of disturbing Yu Yan, he kept his movements very light. As soon as he opened the door, he saw the young man, who was seated in front of the computer with his brow slightly furrowed and his lips closed, as he stared at the screen seriously.


“There are three people upstairs.”


His teammates must have said something, for Yu Yan spoke again, “Three, I heard them… It’s fine, we won’t leave, it’s easy to attack fortifications. Which one of you can throw grenades? …Come on, I’ll give you three. You just worry about throwing it in, no need to stress about it.”


His teammate obediently took hold of the grenades being handed over, and didn’t hold back as he blew up the fortifications using them one by one. The people who were upstairs couldn’t stand it any longer and all of them jumped out through the window to try and run away.


Yu Yan was holding a gun, and this scenario for him became like a game of shooting down birds. After two guns and 60 bullets were used up, he successfully obtained three kills.


He breathed a sigh of relief. “All dead, leave me some bullets…”


As soon as he finished saying this, he seemed to have noticed something. He raised his head from the screen abruptly and met the gaze of the person standing at the door.


His eyes brightened almost instantaneously. “How are you back so early—”


Yi Chen closed the door and walked up to him, making half of his body appear on camera.


“Skipping work.” Yi Chen laughed, then glanced at the screen and asked, “How long until you stop streaming?”


Yu Yan dragged his eyes back to the game and quickly finished looting. “Still have more than an hour left.”


[WTF!? Boss 1’s voice? Ahhhh, I want to see Boss 1’s face!! A meteor kneels down and begs Xiao Yan to lift up the camera a bit!]


[No, these two… Why are they together every day ah? And always at the other party’s house?? My girlfriend and I aren’t even that attached…]


[1YanTang can! Celebrate! New! Year’s! Early! Tossing a meteor, wishing Boss 1 and Xiao Yan a harmonious union lasting a hundred years, and big fortune, great profit, and good luck in the year of the pig!]


Yi Chen saw the barrage, laughed, and asked him in a low voice, “Then, is there space to carry me, big thigh?”


“…… Yes,” Yu Yan asked, “But are you going to go to the study to play?”


Thinking of this, Yi Chen raised his eyebrows—


And after a while, he said, “Then I won’t play.”


He had originally just wanted to play games with Yu Yan. But he now realised that if they were to play together, the two of them would have to be separated by a wall.


He picked up the chair that Yi Ran had brought into the room before, and just like when they were in Manyang, sat next to Yu Yan. Only half of his body could be seen through the camera, and ever since he had entered the room, he had never shown his face.


“I’ll watch you play.”


Soon, the stream followers found that Yu Yan’s mood had changed a lot.


…… But it was not directed towards them.


“Usually when you use a sniper rifle, if the enemy is moving, you can lift the scope a little bit, and because of the far distance, the bullet will fall during its shooting trajectory… Like this.” Yu Yan explained, while firing several shots at the opposite side, and immediately receiving two spurts of green blood in response. “But it’s not easy to kill them this way. If your position isn’t good, there’s no need to shoot. Otherwise, you’ll just reveal your position for no reason, and later on, it won’t be easy to enter the safety zone.”


Yi Chen let out a thoughtful “en” and very supportively lavished praise on him, “You’re so strong.”


[Lololol, very smooth flattery. Do I dare ask, do you actually understand, Boss 1?]


[1YanTang girl taking screenshots like crazy! Although Boss 1 has only revealed half of his body, I can completely make out his Western suit and leather shoes—the slick-haired, refined black sheep appearance!! Xiao Yan, go for it!!!! Quickly do some hands-on training to show him how to fire ♂ a gun ah!! ]


[…… These screaming 1YanTang people should simmer down a bit ba. It used to be okay, but now Xiao Yan has a girlfriend, so it’s not appropriate to send messages like this. Are you a stranger to tending your ideas on your own?]


Yi Chen had originally been teased into a good mood by the barrage. By the time he suddenly saw those words in the barrage, it was too late to retract the smile on his lips.


Yu Yan was playing in the final circle and didn’t realize that the expression of the person next to him had changed.


Their entire team made it into the final circle and even looted two airdrops along the way. Yu Yan now had an M249 in his hand, and relying on a hundred bullets, had overturned the last three Voldemorts, successfully gathering 16 kills to win the match.


In the barrage, the viewers began to sigh emotionally again. Talking back and forth, they couldn’t go two sentences without mentioning the idea of playing professionally.


He had seen these kinds of words too many times now, and Yu Yan didn’t have such a fragile heart made of glass, especially more so when sitting next to Yi Chen.


It hadn’t been difficult for Yu Yan to eat chicken and gather 16 kills, but even then, he couldn’t help but turn his head like a child waiting for praise and say, “Yi Chen, I ate chicken.”


Yi Chen met his eyes and let out an unclear laugh. “…Then you’re pretty strong.”


He got his praise.


But to Yu Yan’s ears, he kept feeling like these words didn’t seem to be earnest praise.


Sure enough, after Yi Chen said that, he suddenly asked, “Heard you got a girlfriend?”


“?”


Yu Yan froze, not sure how to react. “I…what girlfriend?”


Yi Chen raised his hand, bent his finger, and gently scratched at the computer screen. “They said it.”


[Boss 1 still doesn’t know yet?? Xiao Yan said in the stream that day that he has a girlfriend now.]


“Oh?” Yi Chen said. “I really didn’t know about that.”


Yu Yan quickly explained, “No. What I said was, I’m not single anymore.”


As soon as these words were uttered, everyone was left stunned.


Only Yi Chen, who was sitting at his side, smiled.


[??? ]


[So you’re not single, how does that conflict with you having a girlfriend???]


[Wait a moment, I suddenly have a bold idea…]


“Alright.” Yi Chen opened his mouth and cut off the topic. He said, “Yanyan, let me show you something.”


Yu Yan asked, “What?”


“Reach your hands out and take it.”


Yu Yan followed his instructions and held out his hands under the table.


His hands were then tightly grasped by Yi Chen, who raised his thumb and scratched it gently against Yu Yan’s palm.


“Do you like it?” Yi Chen, who had nothing in his hands, continued, “Just in time, it can be your gift for no longer being single.”


“……”


The barrage filled with lines about the same topic, with everyone urging him to take the gift out and bring it in front of the camera so that they could also take a look. There were even some people guessing what the gift was.


Yu Yan really felt as if the two of them were having a clandestine love affair right now.


His ears were red, and he let out an “en” sound. He grasped the other person’s hand under the table and held it for a long time as he said, “…I like it.”



Juurensha: Awwww Yanyan earnestly lecturing about the finer points of PUBG to Yi Chen while Yi Chen dotes on him and praises him is so cute.
