Chapter 22 Ward Rounds
The reason why Jiang Jinhan's live stream chat was filled with insults was because An Jin, just before destroying the opponent's base, frantically used his hand speed, which he had maintained for twenty years since he was single, to taunt the opponent.
[An'an can't sleep: You won too easily, bro.]
[An'an can't sleep: Hehe, is this all you've got?]
With just one sentence, he mocked five players, including Jiang Jinhan. It's no wonder the chat was flooded with comments.
In the eyes of the viewers, An Jin was the one who got carried to victory in this game.
What's most frustrating in competitive games is being mocked by the worst player on the opposing team after losing a match.
Jiang Jinhan was furious. After leaving the game, he didn't rush to restart it. Instead, he stayed on the results screen and watched his teammates and opponents hurling insults at each other.
You can't win an argument in the game, and you still can't win an argument after you lose the game.
An Jin single-handedly took on four opponents, typing furiously on her keyboard, and finally added: "Tadpoles are searching for An An and can't sleep, fans, get on board with your light sticks~"
She sent that message purely out of anger.
This phrase is a meme in the gaming community. Originally, it meant that a novice game streamer, due to a significant skill gap with their opponent, easily and consistently crushed them in a match.
So, when they were about to destroy the enemy base, they posted these words in order to promote their live stream and attract fans.
Because of the high popularity and engaging gameplay of League of Legends, many people have become streamers, leading to a surge in similar small streamers and a proliferation of similar content.
Things like "Tadpole Search for So-and-So," "Free Ride," "Little Fish So-and-So," and "Fans Light Board Numbers," etc.
As players saw it more and became more familiar with it, it was later used as a meme to mock the opponent's lack of skill.
Jiang Jinhan left after watching the argument, not really thinking much about it.
After all, this is how competitive games are. Because of the excessive use of insults, many sensitive words are restricted, which leads many players to develop sophisticated sarcastic and sarcastic language skills after becoming veteran players.
Jiang Jinhan didn't see the comments until she opened the ranked match.
Oh my god, I thought the other side was mocking me. I just searched for it, and there really is such a person in the gaming section.
Really? So arrogant?
What's it called? I want to go take a look too.
: So your name is An'an, and you can't sleep. You're actually a streamer... My goodness, these days anyone can be a streamer.
Wow, this live stream really exists? I'll have to check it out.
The game queue is so slow, let me check the rooms, hahaha.
Jiang Jinhan: "Are you really live-streaming on Tadpole?"
He raised an eyebrow slightly, surprised that the cat opposite him was actually a streamer.
Comments: She's really streaming, and she's quite pretty.
It's really happening live.
Holy crap, the enemy jungler and AD carry are the ones who got on the bus... I thought they were just playing casually, but they played really well.
I never expected the most unruly cat to be a streamer... There were quite a few people in the live stream room, over a hundred when I went to check.
I skipped ahead and took a look after finding it; there are already over a thousand results.
They're all probably just people from our live stream who came here to laugh at us, hahaha.
Jiang Jinhan: "Then let's go take a look."
He was also curious about what a woman with such a foul mouth looked like.
Normally, a streamer of his stature would never suddenly check up on a smaller streamer's channel.
For small-time livestreamers, viewership equals money.
For them, a big streamer's sudden visit to their channel is like a windfall; it's impossible not to take advantage of the traffic and release clips.
Jiang Jinhan pulled up the browser in the background, opened the Tadpole Video homepage, and searched for the name "An'an Can't Sleep".
The page paused briefly, then quickly displayed the search results.
Jiang Jinhan looked at the avatar that was showing a live stream and asked the chat, "Is this it?"
This is it!
Yes, that's it.
Jiang Jinhan clicked on it.
When he clicked in, An Jin was looking at the computer screen with a puzzled expression.
"Why are there so many people all of a sudden? Did a boss buy me some promotional material?"
The clear, girlish voice eased Jiang Jinhan's furrowed brows. He looked at An Jin in the lower right corner of the screen, where no beauty filters were turned on during the live stream. The surrounding noise instantly subsided, and his heart pounded like a deer in his chest, stimulating all his senses.
Jiang Jinhan suddenly felt a bit hot. He stood up and sat up straight, looking nervously at An Jin, who was speaking in the center of his line of sight.
Ahhhhh! It's Brother Wang! Welcome, Brother Wang, on your rounds!!
An'an, call for help! Jiang Jinhan is here! Hurry up and cling to his coattails!
What's going on? I was only gone for a few minutes, and now there are so many people in the live stream, almost two thousand!
Brother Wang is here! Welcome, Brother Wang!
An Jin opened the game microphone in confusion: "What Brother Wang? Kaixin, 76, do you guys know him?"
76: "What?"
Happy Superman asked, completely bewildered, "What's wrong, An'an?"
An Jin complained, "I don't know, did you guys buy me some promotions? Suddenly two or three thousand people came into my live stream, and they kept spamming things like 'Brother Wang and Brother Jiang are here.'"
76 opened An Jin's live stream, but didn't understand the situation for a moment.
Happy Superman reacted quickly: "Brother Wang? Brother Jiang? Holy crap!"
He opened An Jin's live stream and saw that there were so many people in the live stream. He then searched for Jiang Jinhan's live stream, clicked in, and was so excited that he almost shouted out loud.
"An'an, Jiang Jinhan is checking your room! Call him right now!"
Seeing how excited Happy Superman was, An Jin obediently opened her mouth and greeted him, "Hello, Brother Jiang!"
Her voice is sweet and very pleasant to listen to.
Whether others like it or not, Jiang Jinhan certainly does; his lips are practically curled into a Nike-like smile.
He directly used his main account to gift An Jin two sports cars.
Upon seeing the gift, An Jin's smile became even more genuine, and her voice became sickeningly sweet.
She didn't know much about famous people in the world, but she had eyes and noticed the sudden increase in traffic to the live stream, plus the gifts coming in from the backend.
An Jin certainly couldn't let this opportunity go to waste, so she quickly said with a sweet smile, "Thank you for the sports car, Brother Jiang. Do you want to play games with An An? An An still has one parking space left today."
Fans who follow An Jin are numb, and fans who follow Jiang Jinhan are also numb.
What I'm saying is, under normal circumstances, shouldn't the streamer perform some talent?
LOL, trying to get professional players on board? You've got some serious imagination!
Why aren't you being so foul-mouthed now? I still prefer your arrogant and unruly demeanor when you were trash-talking people in the game.
Dude, you've changed your face like that...
She really caught this huge wave of traffic and wealth; I'm so envious!
Why would Brother Wang come to check on patients? That's so strange.
Because Wang Ge played AD in the last game, and it was so disgusting...
Was Wang Ge the AD carry in the last game? Oh my god, hahaha, I'm dying of laughter, no wonder.
Oh no, this is going to be awesome for the streamer!
The comments section briefly explained why Jiang Jinhan had come to check on the patients.
On the other hand, Jiang Jinhan was madly in love with An Jin's sweet invitation.
He hesitated for a moment, his reason and impulse clashing, and gave his answer in less than a minute.
Jiang Jinhan paused the rankings and, to the astonishment of tens of thousands of viewers, accepted An Jin's invitation.
