The first law of internet celebrities: Showing your face will inevitably lead to a disaster.
Xu Yanshen's fans, upon learning that the program was being recorded tonight and would likely not air until the end of the month, expressed their intention to cherish the remaining time.
Occasionally, a few male fans would speak up, saying things like, "I only followed Xu Yanshen because his gameplay is so cool. Game streamers aren't judged by their looks," and so on, praising Xu Yanshen's skills in the comments. But these comments quickly disappeared amidst the heartbroken lamentations of the fans who only liked his looks.
Fans: Xu Shen, why don't you just stay a popular internet celebrity? As long as you don't appear on variety shows and don't let us know what you look like with filters, we can still be friends.
Fans: Why go on variety shows? Have you ever seen a variety show where the contestant doesn't mess up? Bro, I finally found someone who looks like the male protagonist in an e-sports novel, please don't shatter my fantasy.
Fans: Why don't we talk to the production team and have your scenes removed?
...
Xu Yanshen's nearly ten million fans all started insulting him, saying that Xu Yanshen was about to go from being a husband to a fraudster ex-husband, and that all the viewers who watched the game were considered to be paid trolls hired by Xu Yanshen.
Xu Yanshen was pulled over by Song Yiming to read the comments and couldn't help but chuckle.
"Why didn't you guys notice the other comments? Didn't someone say that I'm a handsome guy who doesn't understand angles and shouldn't use filters and beauty effects?" Xu Yanshen examined the interface carefully, raised his eyebrows and said, "The main thing is that this channel comes with filters, so even if the beauty effect is turned down to the lowest level, it's not very useful. Otherwise, I could show you what I look like without filters and beauty effects."
Now the comments section is full of people saying that Xu Yanshen is narcissistic.
Xu Yanshen raised his eyebrows and asked, "Then how can it not be considered narcissism?"
Xu Yanshen selected a comment: "Beautiful but unaware of it?"
Xu Yanshen lowered his head and laughed, "Are you a child? You're in college now, that shouldn't be the case. Aren't there many people around you who are beautiful without realizing it? It's possible that some people have changed a lot, like someone who was very fat before losing weight and was disliked for being too fat before, or someone whose appearance was damaged due to some circumstances. But do you think someone who has been good-looking since childhood can be beautiful without realizing it? Many people would tell them that."
Xu Yanshen lowered his head, laughing and shaking his head. "There's no such thing as someone who's beautiful but doesn't know it. If a few more people praised him, wouldn't he know? Tell me, who around you is beautiful but doesn't know it?"
Because the live stream started early today, Xu Yanshen had more time to chat. Perhaps influenced by some other reason, Xu Yanshen was also thinking about how to pass the time.
I glanced at my phone vibrating and saw it was a crew member, but I ignored it and chatted freely.
About twenty minutes later.
His phone vibrated, another message came in. Xu Yanshen glanced at it and immediately saw that it was from Ye Yingying. Xu Yanshen, who had previously paid no attention to or cared about anyone sending him messages, suddenly picked up his phone.
As the chat was filled with questions about what was going on, Xu Yanshen's smile, which had been slightly sarcastic and sharp-tongued during his chat, suddenly shifted to a doting, joyful, and even sweet one. The two styles changed so quickly that the live stream almost paused for a moment before exploding in excitement.
Xu Yanshen told Song Yiming to maintain order and then left immediately, walking to the side to prepare to reply to Ye Yingying.
Ye Yingying: The staff of "The Voice of Ethereal Souls" asked you if you had left a men's necklace in the lounge.
Xu Yanshen replied immediately: Hmm, a men's necklace? Oh, I think so.
Ye Yingying: He said he couldn't get in touch with you, and since we seem to know each other, he asked me to ask you.
Xu Yanshen glanced at the message history and, sure enough, the program team had sent several messages, two or three of them text messages. He didn't reply to the staff, but continued to reply to Ye Yingying: Really? I didn't see his message.
Xu Yanshen: I'm sorry to trouble you.
Ye Yingying: It's okay.
Xu Yanshen knew that Ye Yingying was only able to send this message because she had nothing else to do, so he used this topic to continue chatting with Ye Yingying.
Xu Yanshen: It seems there were other media outlets present at the time. I wonder if they would take separate photos of the two of us to attract attention.
Ye Yingying: [Laughing and crying] I don't think so...
Xu Yanshen: Before, I only helped with a small favor and it was used to create hype. Now that you're even more popular, it's hard to say what will happen.
He sensed that although Ye Yingying had time, she probably didn't really want to chat, so he didn't press the issue further. He even ended the conversation before Ye Yingying could reply, saying: "It's okay. I'll cooperate to clarify anything if anything happens. You go ahead and do your work. I'm going to do my live stream too."
This attitude made Ye Yingying realize that she might have been too cold just now, so she immediately replied: My agent said that you performed exceptionally well. According to the audience feedback, the show should have achieved good results this time. Maybe in the future, you will be more popular than me and I will have to cooperate with you.
She's so good with words. Xu Yanshen lowered his head and smiled.
Ye Yingying replied: Okay, you go ahead and do your work.
This time, Xu Yanshen only replied with an emoji.
After the chat ended, he rubbed his temples, feeling somewhat frustrated and troubled.
This was his first real attempt to pursue a girl, but it seemed to be more difficult than he had imagined.
