Chapter 68 Anchor brother loves hard 15 cute.
Li Feng is live streaming from his study.
The keyboard clicked crisply, and a deep voice calmly commanded through the microphone: "Set up fire at point B. I'll go around and clear the area."
The barrage of comments filled the screen enthusiastically, with all kinds of flattery popping up one after another.
Suddenly, there was a deafening roar from downstairs, which even the headphones could not completely block out.
"Bang!"
"Awooo-woof!"
"ah!!"
Then came the sound of hurried footsteps and Ye Ling's heart-wrenching cry: "Dismantle! Stop! Don't run! Come back—!"
Li Feng frowned.
He didn't even have time to turn off the microphone before his voice was clearly heard throughout the livestream room: "...Are you a bird? Fluttering around and making a lot of noise, making endless noise..."
Did he say so many things at once in the live broadcast room, and they were all trivial matters of life that had nothing to do with the game? The barrage of comments immediately became excited:
[What? Blade's family has a bird? ?]
[Blade, are you sure you're cursing? Why does it sound like you're flirting to me? ? ?]
[“Flutter, flutter, clatter, clatter” — Help! What a vivid metaphor! I get the picture!]
[Is it your roommate's younger brother? I want to see it! !]
Li Feng's face darkened, and he was about to turn off the microphone when the study door was slammed open with a bang.
Ye Ling rushed in breathlessly, his light blond hair a mess like a bird's nest, and he was holding a half-length dog leash in his hand: "Brother! Brother! Take it apart...it..."
Before he could finish his words, he was startled by the colorful live broadcast screen, his foot tripped on the dog leash, and his body fell out uncontrollably.
“Crash!”
A stack of game discs on the shelf next to him fell over with a thud. Ye Ling frantically frantically tried to stand firm like a frightened bird, and almost bumped into the water cup on the corner of the table.
"Be careful!" Li Feng acted before he spoke. With quick eyes and hands, he grabbed the back of his collar and lifted him up like a chicken, avoiding the tragedy of water flooding the keyboard.
He looked at the mess on the ground and the still-flailing bird in his arms, his forehead throbbing with veins, but he could only sigh helplessly: "...I'm live streaming. Can you please be quiet?"
This unthreatening question was once again transmitted through the microphone.
The barrage went completely crazy and started playing crazy memes:
[Hahahaha, both a novice and playful! Just like the chicken at home that gnaws at the cage every day!]
[Fact check: Chick is a nickname for small domesticated birds!]
“I’m not a little bird because I can’t fly high, and I’m not a big bird because I’m small, so I’m just a little chicken~” (Imagine my roommate’s little brother singing it)
[Ahhh, this is so cute! Blade, turn on the camera! We want to see the chick (crossed out) roommate's little brother!]
[Ten thousand people signed a petition asking to see Blade's bushi roommate!]
Ye Ling was being held by Li Feng. She looked at the screen full of "chickens," then at Li Feng's face, which was as dark as the bottom of a pot but seemed to be holding back a smile. She was completely bewildered: [778...who...are they calling the chicks?]
778: […Host, based on the context of the comments, the ‘chicken’ they’re talking about… seems to be you?]
Li Feng looked at the "little chicken" that was flooding the screen in the barrage, then looked at the real thing in his hand with a confused and innocent look on its face, and finally broke down, and the corners of his mouth rose uncontrollably.
He quickly turned off the microphone and carried Ye Ling to the lazy sofa next to him: "Stay here."
Then he calmly picked up the torn leash and gave a cold order: "Sit down."
The Husky, which was jumping up and down half a minute ago, immediately sat down obediently, with its hind legs on the ground, and its front paws had to rub against the slippery water on the ground for a few times before it could stabilize itself.
Ye Ling was stunned as she watched Chaichai suddenly transformed into a living dog.
Li Feng put the dog in the cage, returned to the study, glanced at Ye Ling on the sofa, and closed the door.
Ye Ling pretended to get up: "Brother, I..."
"You, stay here and don't move." Li Feng's order was unquestionable.
“…” Ye Ling immediately became as obedient as Chaichai and sat back down obediently.
In the hearts of Li Feng's fans, Ye Ling's image seems to have gradually evolved into "the lively and somewhat useless golden mascot chicken of the Blade family."
Ye Ling was feeling very depressed. At this moment, he heard the footsteps of Li Feng coming back from outside the door, each one louder than the last. Just when he thought the door was about to be pushed open, the footsteps suddenly disappeared, and there was no new movement for several seconds.
Ye Ling stood up and walked over curiously. Through a wooden door, she finally heard Li Feng's deliberately low voice: "Well, Qin Ci... now?... Sure, see you at the company then."
Qin Ci! Calling again! We want to meet again!
Ye Ling caught the key words, and her heart suddenly lifted. 778 released the task at the right time: [New Task: Disrupt the protagonist's date! Stop Li Feng from going out! !]
If you're sleepy, you'll get a pillow. Putting aside the perverted role he played, Ye Ling was absolutely displeased with the two of them meeting alone. With this double motivation, Ye Ling's fighting spirit was high.
He opened the door and happened to see Li Feng hanging up the phone and about to turn around and leave.
"Brother!" Ye Ling hurriedly called out to him, her brain racing to find an excuse, "You...you want to go out? Um...I don't know how to do some questions..."
Li Feng paused and looked back at him, his eyes seemed to be able to see through his thoughts: "What question?"
"Ah? Just...just..." Ye Ling stammered and couldn't come up with anything on the spur of the moment.
Li Feng looked at him for a few seconds, then suddenly reached out and rubbed his light blond hair. His movements were a little stiff, but his tone was softer than usual: "Read a book first, I'll be back soon."
Ye Ling's face flushed with the sudden intimacy, and she instantly forgot what she was going to say. She stared blankly at Li Feng as he turned around, went downstairs, and left. It wasn't until she heard the door close that she snapped back to her senses—he was gone after all!
No! We can't leave them alone! Ye Ling gritted his teeth and decided to follow. He remembered that Li Feng mentioned "Qin Ci" and "company" on the phone, so that should be the headquarters of Mo Yu Live!
He confirmed the location on the navigation and followed them secretly, asking 778 in his heart: [778, are they rekindling their old love? What are they meeting for today?]
[Uh...] 778 was in distress. [The current relationship between the protagonist and the receiver has seriously deviated from the original script, and progress is extremely slow... This system cannot predict the specific situation.]
The destination was indeed Mo Yu's headquarters. The air conditioning in the grand, high-ceilinged lobby was abundant. Ye Ling walked in through the revolving door and felt as if she had instantly gone from midsummer to deep winter. She couldn't help but shiver.
But when he looked up, he saw Li Feng walking straight towards the coffee shop on the first floor. Without hesitation, he quickly followed him and found a secluded corner booth to sit down.
After a while, Qin Ci appeared and took a seat across from Li Feng. He got straight to the point: "I know Ye Ling is just staying at your house, or rather... staying at your uncle and aunt's villa."
He chose his words deliberately, naturally to clarify the personal relationship between Ye Ling and Li Feng.
Li Feng immediately sensed the sting in these words and frowned slightly.
Qin Ci continued with an unwavering smile, "I heard his parents are old acquaintances of my uncle and aunt from their hometown, and they moved here to make it easier for him to go to school. But have you ever considered that forcing a child from a rural area to quickly adapt to the city and trapping him in a beautiful 'golden cage' is not a good idea? I believe that kind elders like my uncle and aunt would never have such an intention."
"Ye Ling is a college student now. To adapt to college life and pave the way for his future, he should step out of that relatively closed environment." Qin Ci's demeanor and conversation were elegant, but every word was full of sarcasm. "I have a good job opportunity here with flexible hours that won't affect his studies. If you and your uncle and aunt really want this for his own good, you shouldn't have rejected Mo Yu's olive branch on his behalf."
"Heh." Li Feng sneered, unconcerned. "Mr. Qin has said so much, but it seems he's forgotten the most important point—his own wishes?"
Qin Ci's smile faltered slightly. Indeed, Ye Ling had clearly rejected him several times. But...
"Heh..." He quickly regrouped, his smile perfect. "Ye Ling is from a rural town, and doesn't understand the value of these opportunities. You're the person he interacts with the most. It's easy for you to get him to tell you the answer you want."
Li Feng took a sip of coffee first, then slowly put the cup down before looking directly at Qin Ci: "You are Mo Yu's prince. It's easy for you to use these high-sounding excuses to cover up your selfish motives."
"Selfish?" Qin Ci was not at all flustered, but instead smiled even more deeply. "Who wouldn't like such a pure and lovely child? I'm open and honest. When I like someone, I just want to be good to him. Not..."
He paused meaningfully, "Be aggressive towards him all the time."
Li Feng's fingers holding the cup stiffened slightly.
"A-choo!" Ye Ling in the corner couldn't help but sneeze loudly because of the cold air.
He hurriedly covered his mouth and raised his eyes in horror, just in time to meet Li Feng's cold and inquiring gaze that swept over when he heard the sound.
It's over! We've been discovered!
Ye Ling's heart skipped a beat. She hurriedly lowered her head, pretending to check her phone. Her heart was pounding like crazy: [778! Did he see it? He definitely saw it!]
He could no longer sit still, and while Li Feng and Qin Ci seemed to be still talking, he quickly stood up and tried to slip away through the other passage.
As a result, as soon as I walked out the door and onto the street——
"Didn't I tell you to stay at home?" A cold voice came from behind.
"Ah... I, I..." Ye Ling turned around stiffly, her eyes wandering. Suddenly, an idea flashed in her mind, and she spoke casually, "I just... I've been in City A for so long, but I haven't had a proper stroll. I'm really curious about big cities..."
As he spoke, he looked towards the brightly lit high-end shopping mall across the street, then turned back and blinked his unusually bright hazelnut eyes at Li Feng.
Li Feng stared at him for a few seconds, but in the end he didn't expose his mistake. He just said calmly, "Let's go."
Ye Ling was stunned: "Huh?"
"Aren't you going shopping?" Li Feng had already taken the lead and walked across the street.
Ye Ling's heart was still in a mess, but she could only hurry to catch up. The air conditioning in the mall was even stronger, and Ye Ling, wearing a short-sleeved shirt, couldn't help but rub his arms with his arms.
"Cold?" Li Feng glanced at him sharply, "Why is your physique so..."
He stopped complaining mid-sentence, pursed his lips, stopped, took off his coat neatly, and threw it on Ye Ling's head, "Put it on."
As if he felt that his actions were too rough, he reached out again and tried to pull up the corner of the clothes that completely covered Ye Ling's face.
But Ye Ling didn't stop, her hands were moving around under her clothes. He originally wanted to pull the clothes, but unexpectedly, he grabbed Ye Ling's hand through the clothes.
The clothes were now fixed in place, and Ye Ling's entire face was covered in them. His eyes were dark, and he could only feel the warm strength of the hand. He subconsciously thought that he had done something wrong to make Li Feng unhappy again, and he suddenly became motionless and silent.
Li Feng: “…”
Looking at the little bumpkin in front of him with a layer of skin on his body, Li Feng was silent for a few seconds with mixed emotions. Feeling the gazes from passers-by, he let go of Ye Ling's hand, took off his clothes with both hands, and draped them over Ye Ling's shoulders.
"Dress up, don't catch a cold." Seeing Ye Ling put on her clothes, he felt relieved.
As a result, the next day, Ye Ling was still depressed.
He was listless at school during the day, and even after taking a hot shower, he still felt tired. At night, he huddled on the bed in the guest room, his face and neck red, shivering under the covers.
Tonight, the "little tail" who always talks nonsense is also unusually quiet.
Li Feng checked his livestream several times, but there was no movement from "Brother Feng's little tail." Not only did he not watch his livestream, he also didn't send him any private messages.
What are you busy with? Could it be that I'll run into Qin Ci again at school today?
Li Feng's brows knitted together. After the broadcast ended, he immediately left the study. He turned off the lights in the hallway, but a thin ray of light leaked through the crack in the guest bedroom door at the far end. Ye Ling wasn't asleep.
Then why haven't you sent any messages? Could you be busy...harassing other brothers?
Speaking of which, Mo Yu has been incredibly active lately, having scooped up several famously handsome male streamers from other platforms...
Li Feng stood quietly in the dim corridor, his wild thoughts spreading like wildfire, until the strongest and most familiar possessive desire mixed with a desire for destruction burst out.
The terrifying feeling of losing control made him tremble violently. He shook his head, wiped his face, took two steps at a time, and walked over to the door and pushed it open.
The next second, he froze at the door.
I saw the little golden head on the bed drooping weakly, its back bent into a fragile arc, and its entire body almost supported by the pillow in its arms, just like a bird drenched in rain and dying.
Li Feng's heart tightened inexplicably, his Adam's apple rolled, and he took a few steps to the bedside: "Ye Ling? What's wrong with you?"
He reached out and gently touched Ye Ling's arm that was exposed outside the quilt, and it felt abnormally hot.
"Brother..." Ye Ling raised her eyelids with great effort. Her hazel eyes were misty and abnormally red. Her voice was hoarse and weak. "I seem to have... a cold... I feel dizzy and my whole body aches..."
"Cold?" Li Feng frowned, and touched Ye Ling's forehead more carefully with the back of his hand. The scorching temperature made his face darken instantly. "Stupid. You have a fever, and it's quite high."
Ye Ling was dazed from the fever, and only felt the coolness of Li Feng's hand, which was very comfortable. Subconsciously, she rubbed her burning forehead against the coolness, mumbling vaguely: "Brother... don't be angry... don't block me..."
"...Wait, don't move." Li Feng felt as if something had gently hit his heart. Although his tone was still harsh, his movements became much lighter.
He turned and went out, and soon returned with fever-reducing medicine and a glass of warm water. He sat down on the bed, supported Ye Ling's weak shoulders, and half-lifted him to lean against him. "Open your mouth and take the medicine."
Ye Ling smelled the bitter taste and frowned, wanting to hide.
"It's not up to you." Li Feng pinched his chin to make him open his mouth, then quickly stuffed the pill into his mouth and put the water cup to his lips, "Drink water and swallow it."
After a few sips of water, Ye Ling's Adam's apple slid, and he finally swallowed the medicine, coughing twice. Li Feng subconsciously patted his back, the action a little awkward, but also like it came from instinct.
After feeding the medicine, Li Feng looked at Ye Ling who collapsed on the pillow again, her little face still red, and felt a little annoyed.
Does a sick person need some light porridge? He went downstairs to the kitchen, quickly washed the rice, put it in the pot, and put it on the stove. While he was waiting, his cell phone rang.
A call from his mother, asking about Ye Ling's condition, only added to his annoyance. He responded briefly, then hung up, feeling even more upset. He simply walked to the balcony and lit a cigarette.
Ye Ling suddenly had a fever, and she felt that it was related to the cold she caught in the mall yesterday.
Because of the mall, and also because of him.
The last time Ye Ling was talking in her sleep about those fears, he could still reflexively utter "I didn't", but this time, even if it was unintentional, he was indeed one of the causes of Ye Ling's illness.
Perhaps this is not the first time, after all, people can get hurt more than just their bodies.
He couldn't help but think of Qin Ci's sharp words yesterday, such as... Qin Ci said that he would not be mean to the person he liked.
Back in the kitchen, the porridge in the pot was already smelling a bit burnt. He uttered a frustrated "tsk" sound, then thought about how Ye Ling seemed to have an unusual sense of taste, and he could praise anything he made...
He pursed his lips, carefully avoided the burnt bottom of the pot, and scooped up the top layer of porridge that looked normal.
"Get up and have something to drink." Li Feng brought the bowl to the bedside and helped Ye Ling, who was lying limp and warm, up again.
Ye Ling leaned against him in a daze, and scooped a spoonful of porridge into her mouth with his hand.
“!!!” The taste buds were hit hard!
Ye Ling's misty eyes instantly cleared up, and his droopy face immediately wrinkled into a ball. He subconsciously wanted to vomit, but when he looked up, he met Li Feng's eyes that were fixed on him.
Ye Ling made up his mind and swallowed the porridge that tasted so good. He forced a smile and said, "It's... it's okay... thank you, brother."
Li Feng deliberately put on a stern face: "If you're okay, eat more and drink it all."
Ye Ling: “…”
Li Feng held the bowl and looked at him calmly for a while. Finally, he said nothing and took the bowl away.
Ye Ling collapsed back, feeling relieved. He had just closed his eyes when he felt a cool, comfortable sensation on his forehead. It was Li Feng gently applying a wrung-out wet towel.
"Hmm..." The cool touch soothed the burning sensation on his forehead. Ye Ling sighed comfortably and unconsciously rubbed the back of Li Feng's hand, which he hadn't yet retracted, with his burning cheek. "Brother, actually... although you're a little fierce... but..."
Li Feng paused, his hands felt numb, and his heart was in his throat.
"……fine."
When Ye Ling finally finished the second half of the sentence, his heart, which had been hanging in the air, skipped a beat again.
After a long moment, Li Feng slowly lowered his head, looking at the little golden retriever lying on the bed, looking especially well-behaved due to the fever. Her golden hair was damp with sweat, and strands of it stuck to her forehead. Her eyelashes drooped, and her cheeks flushed red, pressing against the back of his hand.
He then realized the temperature on his arm and retracted his hand as if he was burned. He coughed to cover it up and wanted to say "Shut up and go to sleep" in his usual cold and hard tone, but the words came out a little stiffly: "Shut up - no."
He hesitated for a moment, then reached out his hand again, awkwardly wiping away the sweat from Ye Ling's forehead: "...I must go to bed early."
The warm and moist touch of his fingertips made his heart soften inexplicably, and his tone was so low and gentle that he himself had not noticed: "Be good, you will get better soon."
Although……
He silently started talking again in his heart. The image of Ye Ling, usually stupid, slow, timid, yet always trouble-making, appeared before his eyes...
Even when he's naughty, he's quite... cute—no, quite lively.
