The Eternal team, which dominates the world championships, has three treasures: Yu Mo's face, Yu Mo's hands, and Yu Mo's sniper skills.
While everyone eagerly awaited, Yu Mo went ...
Winter_LEMON, also known as Eddie, became a household name in the professional esports circle overnight. This treatment was as if she had won a gold trophy. Countless hot eyes were focused on her, some with expectation and love, but more with curiosity and doubt.
After many years, the entire Winter team has once again been pushed to the forefront of topics. The feeling of returning to the public eye, being valued and frequently mentioned is undoubtedly exciting. Crystal has been overwhelmed with interview invitations from various topic platforms, and several team members are even more excited to check the news on major platforms every day, and they are even more enthusiastic than if they themselves were famous.
Lin Meng, the person involved, was surprisingly calm. She could feel the admiring gazes from her teammates from time to time.
"Look at Lemon. She's so mature and calm in the face of outside criticism." Crystal said earnestly, "Professional players need to have a big heart like her!"
Lin Meng actually wanted to say that her current situation was at most mixed. In the past, her situation at Kars was the subject of public criticism. Compared to that time, this was just a small matter.
Because she has not achieved any substantial results yet, Crystal did not dare to accept too many interviews. She only chose a few platforms with good reputations and did simple text interviews. The so-called text interviews were nothing more than asking Lin Meng some standard questions like what she felt about being a female player who was unprecedented, whether she felt any pressure, and what her original intention was for entering the industry.
Lin Meng wanted to get her account into the top 100 in the national server, and she had been concentrating on it these days. When Crystal asked her a bunch of boring questions, she showed no interest at all, and instead seemed a little irritated.
"There's no pressure, no feelings. My original intention was just to win." She said this while typing on the keyboard.
Crystal: "...Gone?"
Lin Meng coldly extinguished his regretful thoughts: "That's all."
Heping whispered, "LEMON, you need to say more. According to industry rules, you must play the emotional card at this time. Say that you have ideals, enthusiasm, and a strong sense of collective honor."
Maze added: "Yes, yes, you must never say that you have no pressure. If the outside world thinks you have no pressure, they will think you have no motivation, and then they will put pressure on you!"
Crystal: “They’re all right!”
Lin Meng paused, as if he had thought of something, and for the first time ever, he took the initiative to speak: "I think the adjective 'unprecedented and unrivalled' needs to be changed."
Crystal: “???”
Lin Meng stared at the computer screen and said calmly, "I may be the first female professional player in BOD, but I definitely won't be the last."
The final interview transcript of LEMON was still a little different from what Lin Meng said herself. After all, it had been painstakingly polished by Crystal, who removed the outrageous content from Lin Meng's mouth, leaving her relatively positive attitude. Her words were softer and more official, which did increase her favorability.
At that moment, in Team E's base, Panda was reading aloud from an interview: "LEMON said that as a lovely young girl, entering the professional esports industry is bound to face many doubts. As for the pressure, it was definitely Alexander's wow. But her original intention in playing games was to win. The spirit of esports is to never give up, so she won't stop chasing the championship because of anyone's negative comments. She also said that she won't be the last girl to play professional esports. Daughters should be self-reliant. I hope everyone will wait and see." After saying this, he spontaneously started clapping, his chubby palms turned red. "Oh my god, LEMON's words are too good. Even though I'm not a girl, I was moved to tears."
Yu Mo, who was sitting at the table over there, was holding chopsticks. Upon hearing this, he raised his hand to cover the corners of his mouth and laughed non-stop.
Panda wondered, "Captain, what are you laughing at?"
"If she said ten of these hundred words herself, I lose." Yu Mo put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth with a tissue, and said lazily.
"No way?" Panda looked down at the interview content, then looked at Yu Mo, and accused him seriously: "Captain, I really despise your behavior of saying bad things about LEMON behind his back!"
"I'm telling the truth, okay?" Yu Mo put down the tissue and said sternly, imitating Lin Meng's tone: "No feelings, no pressure. My original intention was to defeat everyone." He clapped his hands and raised his lips: "It's over. That must have been her answer at the beginning. Alas, it must have been difficult for Crystal to prepare for this interview."
The old man beside him also laughed. Panda shook his head slowly in disbelief, as if his worldview had collapsed. After a while, he said, "As expected of our LEMON, so cool."
"As expected of our Dada," said A-Lu from the side, "He's such a sucker."
"Hey?" Panda rushed over and pinched A-Lu's neck. "I've noticed something's wrong with you. Why are you texting people so early in the morning? Who are you chatting with? Huh?"
"No one else!" Ah Lu blushed, dodging Panda's bear claws left and right: "Just tell a friend that LEMON is famous."
"Is it the little girl named Xu Dandan from last time?" Yu Mo said with a smile.
A Lu: “…”
Panda followed suit and started to jeer: "Ugh, ugh, ugh!!"
Ah Lu immediately became like a cat whose tail was stepped on. He pushed his lunch box aside and stood up, saying lamely, "I, I need to go to the toilet."
"Hey, you've learned to be shy." Panda looked at A Lu's back and smacked his lips repeatedly: "As the only one in our bachelor club with something wrong, we must not let him go!"
"You're just saying the grapes are sour because you can't have them." Yu Mo said, "Can you please be more positive?"
"Captain, from the sound of your voice, does it seem like you have something going on?" Panda twisted his thick neck and stared at him suspiciously.
"Me..." Yu Mo smiled, but didn't finish his words. He took out his cell phone with a sense of superiority and sent a message to "Lin Xiaomeng" in the contact list.
[The message has been sent, but was rejected by the other party.]
Yu Mo: “…………”
Damn! Lin Xiaomeng blocked him?!
When did it happen?
Why?
Is it because of the phone call last night?
No...it was clearly Yu Mo Shen who was wronged last night, and after waking up from a good sleep, Yu Mo's anger was almost gone.
Lin Xiaomeng has even learned to be so arrogant?
Yu Mo's hand holding the phone trembled slightly.
The fat man Panda was still asking recklessly, "Captain, what's wrong with you? Do you have any information? If so, please share it with the brothers!"
Yu Mo slammed his phone on the table and turned it upside down: "I have a weird situation! Hurry up and eat, then go to training!"
Panda: “…”
On the other side, Li Ze was drinking soup silently with a gloomy look in his eyes.
The official announcement of his signing with Team E came half a week earlier than LEMON's. Compared to that, it was like a small stone thrown into a pond, sinking quickly without causing any splashes.
On the contrary, some gossipers dug out videos of his previous poor performances and made a fuss about it, basically saying that he was not worthy of being the starter for the championship team and must have used connections to get in.
Although this was true, it made Li Ze feel very embarrassed.
He went to find Zhong Xiang and wanted him to make a statement on his behalf, declaring to the public that he had entered through legitimate signing channels. However, Zhong Xiang only told him to be more open-minded and that winning the game was the most important thing, and did not mention anything about public relations.
Li Ze was very angry. He felt that Zhong Xiang was rigid and inflexible and had no sympathy for him at all. Compared with the huge momentum of LEMON, he felt even more unbalanced.
"Girls are just the best." He hummed softly while biting his chopsticks. "Even as a professional player, she's treated well. I guess she's been spoiled like a baby in Winter."
Yu Mo's face darkened.
"If you want to experience the treatment she received when she first joined Winter, I don't mind having the whole team cooperate." He said coldly, "Don't eat from now on."
Li Ze subconsciously shrank his neck, looked up, and saw Yu Mo with a sullen face, standing up and leaving the table.
He opened his mouth but hesitated to speak, feeling even more aggrieved. At this time, the old man had finished eating and left, leaving only the big eater Panda, who was diligently gnawing on the pig's feet, at the table.
"Brother Da." Li Ze stared at him for a while, then pushed his untouched pig's foot over to him: "Here, you can eat this."
"You don't want to eat?" Panda wiped his greasy mouth and said with a smile: "The captain said it casually, he didn't really ask you not to eat."
"I'm full, so I'll save some for you." Li Ze said with a smile.
Panda was overjoyed. It was the first time he was called "brother". He was so happy that he couldn't believe it. He ate while saying, "The captain has been very moody these days. It might be because my uncle has come. Don't take it too seriously."
"Yeah." Li Ze lowered his head: "The captain has a very good relationship with Winter's LEMON, right?"
"Of course it is, you can see it, right?" Panda said.
"I feel like their relationship is too close, even closer than with you guys..." Li Ze said in a low voice.
Panda didn't think there was anything wrong: "That girl is so likable! I like her very much too!"
"Really?" Li Ze changed the subject: "She's quite cute, pretty, and good at playing games."
"That's not all! Let me tell you, her hands are incredibly beautiful!" Panda chattered on, recounting them like the back of his hand. "We all agreed that if she signed with our team and put her hands together with the captain's, we could release matching rings as part of our team merchandise! They'd definitely be a bestseller, hahahaha. It's a shame you got there first, so she didn't make it!"
Li Zhe: "..."
really.
Because he took this position, LEMON was unable to come, and he became the white moonlight of the entire Team E. Everything about her was good when mentioned, but when compared to her, they were inferior in everything!
He felt a chill in his heart, and a wave of shame and anger surged in his heart.
"But don't you think you should keep your distance from her?... After all... After all, she is already the starting player of another team." Li Ze gritted his teeth and squeezed out a few words.
"Another team? Winter? Hey, you're overthinking it." Panda said nonchalantly, "We have a good relationship and it won't affect our games. I think you still don't know much about our local BOD team. Aside from a few teams with questionable practices, we're a loving family based on principles. We don't let each other down or reveal tactics, and we're at peace on and off the court."
Li Ze thought to himself, screw your family, how can they say such unprincipled words? They are just a bunch of bootlickers trying to cover up for themselves. He doesn't want to understand and is unwilling to understand.
But how strong is this LEMON... Li Ze thought, he should find a chance to see it for himself, and it would be best if he could let this "e-sports goddess" who relies on her beauty to commit crimes feel the true cruelty of professional e-sports!
Lin Meng didn't know that someone wanted her to see the true cruelty of the e-sports world.
She only knew that Crystal was pushing her to do a live broadcast until her scalp was about to explode.
While Lin Meng was dawdling with the live broadcast, she was furiously complaining to Heping: "I think Brother C has gone crazy."
"It's okay," Heping said. "My mom kept pushing me like this when I didn't do my homework when I was in junior high."
Lin Meng: “…”
"Haven't you ever had the experience of being chased by your parents to urge you to do your homework?" Heping said.
Lin Meng: "I'm sorry, I've always been a left-behind child, so I don't have any."
Heping: "Then you are so happy!"
Lin Meng: “…”
She finally understood what it meant that God would always give back what you lost in disguise.
Heping was busy watching Lin Meng fiddling with the live broadcast software the whole time, and he didn't even play his own ranked game. He watched Lin Meng hastily debug the camera and microphone and was about to click "Start Live Broadcast".
"Hey hey hey! Are you going to start a live broadcast like this?" Heping was shocked and grabbed her mouse and blurted out.
"What else?" Lin Meng squinted his eyes in confusion, a little impatient.
"You don't even use the beauty camera?" Heping said in shock.
Lin Meng was silent for a moment, then slowly asked, "What is that?"
"That's it..." Heping scratched his head for a while: "Wait a minute, please don't start the live broadcast like this!"
Lin Meng had never shown her face in a live broadcast before, and the Internet cafe could not provide any filter services. When Heping held up a big box with the words "Camera brand loved by female anchors" written on it, Lin Meng was confused and a little petrified.
"This is an extra beauty camera I bought during Singles' Day (Singles' Day)! It's the best-selling product on Taobao!" Heping said, "I asked Xiao Shige to try it out, and the beauty effect is amazing. Xiao Shige's moon-like face looks amazing in this lens, and not even a single acne mark can be seen!"
Lin Meng: "...Does your brother Xiao Shi know that you said that?"
Heping said solemnly: "LEMON, this is your first live broadcast, you must leave a good impression on the audience! It would be best if you can attract a large number of fans who like your looks first. You should know that your technical level may fluctuate from time to time, but your looks are forever! Fans who like your looks are the most loyal, you can't be so good-looking for nothing!" After that, he took the initiative to help Lin Meng install and remove the data cable.
"Nonsense, my gaming skills are obviously very stable." Lin Meng muttered in defense, but still moved aside to let Heping tinker with the equipment for her.
Lin Meng felt that she might have known too little about this kind of media culture. After being tormented by Heping, her originally calm state of mind suddenly became a little nervous.
"Well, you do it first, I'll go back and wash my hair." She stood up and said, leaning against the computer desk.
"Ah? You haven't washed your hair yet!" Heping had never seen such an unprofessional female anchor before, and his worldview was refreshed again: "LEMON, don't you know that live streaming is also a part of our salary income..."
"Of course I know!" Lin Meng gritted his teeth.
"Then how can you be so unprofessional!" Heping said.
"I'm called fresh, natural and unpretentious!" Lin Meng was a little embarrassed by what she said. She stamped her feet and said, "What do you know!"
Lin Meng returned to her room, quickly washed her hair, and blew it dry with a hair dryer before sitting down in front of the computer.
Heping had already helped her adjust all the peripherals. Lin Meng sat down and glanced at the barrage area, and found that the comments in the barrage area were scrolling rapidly, with hundreds and thousands of them.
[Where's my wife? Why hasn't my wife shown up yet?]
【LEMON! LEMON! LEMON! 】
[Did the young lady go to put on makeup? ]
【HHHHH I feel like it’s hard for this young lady to survive among straight men. 】
I suddenly feel very nervous. What if the goddess looks different from the photo?
【The love of fans who like their looks is really thin! 】
[I'm different. I'm a fan of the young lady's skills. Every time she shoots, she hits my heart! ]
【Our LEMON is super cool! 】
[When does the livestream start? Didn't they say 8 o'clock? The flowers I've been waiting for have all wilted!]
[Where are you, honey? Honey! My big cruise ship is ready to go!]
Lin Meng looked at the barrage area and got goosebumps from the fans' enthusiasm.
When she was playing as a substitute in the game before and was doing a live broadcast, there were a group of people calling her husband... This is the first time she has been called wife. Maybe there are more male fans in professional teams... Wait, why is there a young lady calling her wife?
Lin Meng turned on the live camera in this chaotic situation.
The screen lit up, and a bright and elegant girl appeared in the center of the screen. The girl had fluffy hair, which was casually tied into a bun on her shoulders. She looked at the camera and then at the display screen. Her confused look was cute and adorable.
The barrage area exploded.
[Oh my god, my wife is so fucking cute! ! ]
[It's my wife! It's my wife! Come upstairs and fight!]
Is this her natural look? How can she look so beautiful without makeup? Her eyes are so big!
[Miss, stop looking at the camera, look at the screen! I'm confessing my feelings to you!]
Lin Meng was still not used to this kind of live broadcast method where her face was shown. She didn't know where to look, so she could only look at the display screen and pout a little nervously.
[Wife, say something!]
【Why does LEMON look unhappy? 】
[I feel nervous, hahahahaha. 】
[It's understandable since it's the first time opening a business, hahahahahaha, super cool! ]
Lin Meng licked her lips: "Um, good evening, I'm LEMON."
[Fuck, my wife’s voice is so nice!]
[Fairy voice! Fairy voice! Honey, say a few more words! I want to record a voice!]
[Hahahahahahaha what the hell is this, an elementary school student's self-introduction!]
[We know you are LEMON hahahaha]
[I'm dying of laughter. Is this an announcement? ]
[The little sister's ears are red hahahahahahaha! ]
Lin Meng also felt that her self-introduction was quite frustrating. She clicked on the BOD shortcut on her desktop while trying to communicate with the audience: "Now, let me show you... No, I mean... I'm going to start gaining points."
The comments were almost paralyzed with laughter.
【Hahahahahahahahahahahaha God damn, I'm going to put on a show for everyone! 】
Am I watching a kindergarten graduation party?
[I'm embarrassed to call you wife, girl, please stop talking hahahahahahahaha! ]
[Please ask Brother C to train Meng San Sui on how to run a business, hahahahahaha! ]
…
Lin Meng was almost embarrassed by herself. She didn't know what else to say to save her shattered aloof personality. The more she said, the more mistakes she made. It was better not to say anything.
She frowned and logged into her game account with an expression that said, "I'm really good at being unhappy."
When jumping to the character interface, her big brown-haired and dark-skinned man once again attracted the attention of fans.
【Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha this character is so fucking eye-catching! 】
I'm FO, I really am. You never know if the goddess you like is a rough guy at heart.
[I'm afraid that Lemon will pull out her big bird from her pants and show it to me!]
【Hahahahahahahahahahaha, this adorable girl is unexpectedly so exciting! 】
[Meng Meng, change your skin tone, mom! Don’t you know that fluorescent colors are the nemesis of dark skin?!]
[Mom doesn't have the heart to say it, but lotus root is really delicious! ]
[LEMON, you really won't be noticed in the bushes wearing this color? 】
[I bet Meng Meier must have been teased a lot in the game before, so she used this body shape to gain points.]
[I give in, my wife is a wolf-killer! ]
Choosing a body type can also make them talk so much. Lin Meng was drunk. She felt that she might have to learn to adapt to this level of "love" from fans.
Although fans complained, they were generous with all kinds of rewards, which came in like a stream.
Lin Meng knew the rules of thanking people for their donations. She followed the barrage assistant's instructions and read out the tips one by one: "Thank you to 'LEMON's little tail' for the airplane tip, thank you to 'I'll give birth to a monkey for Meng Mei' for the rocket/cannon tip, and also to 'Please take me off the blacklist' for the galaxy sunset—"
As she was reading, she suddenly froze.
"Starry Sunset" is a high-value reward prop unique to the cat-playing platform //. When used, it will have the special effect of fireworks and comes with a full-channel broadcast announcement. It is very cool. The price of a single one is 1,500 RMB. Sometimes it will be discounted during activities, but you have to buy it in sets to get the discount. It is known as the "rich man's expression of love."
Because of its high price, "Starry Sunset" does not appear very often. When it occasionally appears, Lin Meng will complain in his heart, "He is stupid and has a lot of money."
It would be better to transfer the money directly to me.
However, at this moment, the man named "Take me off the blacklist" who had a lot of money gave her more than twenty cards in a row.
The fireworks in the barrage area are booming and colorful.
Lin Meng was stunned.
[Holy shit, this is what a die-hard fan looks like! I'm ashamed when compared to him... I don't deserve to be a fan of Meng Meng.]
[Mad, there's no cat-playing promotion going on lately, right? I must have bought this at full price, over 30,000 yuan!]
[Rich guy, let's be friends! Rich guy, look at me! ]
【Why do I feel like Lemon is terrified! 】
[Look how scared the kid is! Such a high-profile display of love on the first day of business!]
【I'm so envious. 】
Lin Meng was speechless, because the person who said "take me off the blacklist" was still sending her "Galaxy Sunset" non-stop. In the blink of an eye, he had already sent her fifty "Galaxy Sunset". The channel broadcast had been completely occupied by these two Eddies. Countless people flocked to the live broadcast room to watch such a great and generous gesture, and the popularity of the live broadcast room was rising rapidly.
While Lin Meng was in a daze, the fans in the barrage area gradually began to act like Sherlock Holmes.
[Why do I feel like this big brother is really expressing his love? ]
[If it's not a declaration of love, then it's also a plea for reconciliation, right? Look at his Eddie, how open and honest he is.]
[Did LEMON block anyone recently? Hahahaha! ]
My daughter is the kind of little princess who'll pull a black person over if she gets into a disagreement!
[Hahahahaha, big brother, stop being so low-key. Why don't you just put your name out there?]
[Yes, yes, there is strength in numbers. Let’s plead for you together!]
【Hahahahahahahahahaha why the hell did I just imagine such an epic love story? 】
…
Lin Meng looked at the barrage of comments and suddenly had a sudden epiphany. She paused the live broadcast, quickly took out her phone, and removed E_Silence from the blacklist.
LEMON: [Yu Mo! Stop it right there!]
The sound of throwing money over there finally stopped.
E_Silence: [Dear, you finally let me out.]
Lin Meng's hands were shaking with shock.
LEMON: […You, are you crazy?! Does your money rain down from the sky?]
E_Silence: [We have no destiny, it's all thanks to me spending money. ]
LEMON: [……]
E_Silence: [The sky can rain money, but it can't rain you. 】
LEMON: [If you say something so vulgar again, you will be blocked again.]
E_Silence: [Please don't block me anymore. If you do, I'll use my main account to give you gifts.]
LEMON: [??? Are you crazy?]
LEMON: [Don’t you want your girlfriend fans and wife fans anymore? ]
E_Silence: [No.]
E_Silence: [You are enough for me, what else do I need them for? ]
Lin Meng: ...
It really tastes earthy.
But it seems... quite nice?
Hahahahahahahahahahaha, let’s talk about the difficulties a straight man goes through in coaxing his wife.
