She became a heartthrob among internet celebrities.

On the screen, Qu Su was playing mahjong seriously, his brows furrowed, his face contorted in a grimace, looking very serious.

Ah, another day where small bets harm the body, big bets break the heart, and extreme gambling leads to bankruptcy!

—Oh, I'm late today. Su Su hasn't gone bankrupt yet?

—In response to the comment above, Qu Su has already recharged once.

—Su, listen to everyone and stop!

—If this fight continues, we won't even have enough money left to get married.

—Go find someone to take you, Su. Some things just won't work; you have to accept it.

—Speaking of which, what happened to that female streamer I played mahjong with? What happened to that pretty girl?

—They're not live streaming today.

—Are there no beautiful women coming to check on patients anymore?

Qu Su frowned. He had decided to discard the suit of Wan, and now several more of them had been drawn, all of them Wan. His original scattered tiles were still in disarray. Others had already made their hands, but he was still discarding the suit.

When the fans in the live stream saw this, they all laughed and many advised him to stop immediately.

This time, the loss was inevitable.

"What a terrible game, I'm not playing anymore," Qu Su said in frustration, angrily exiting the app.

—I already told you to admit defeat.

—Let someone take you, yes, I'm talking about Alai, let's play games together via voice chat.

—I really want to watch her, but her live streams are either about studying or chatting. Chatting is fine, but studying is something I can't handle; it's just so boring.

—I'm a fan of hers! Her study livestreams are really interesting! She sometimes shares study methods, which I find quite helpful. Also, she's incredibly beautiful when she's studying diligently—the kind of beautiful that you could use as wallpaper.

—Let me be honest, I'm a fan of your looks. I've even thought of a couple name for you two: let's call it a couple, what do you say?

—No, it's no use for you guys to celebrate in the live stream. Maybe SuSu doesn't even have their contact information?

—Possibly, because the two don't interact much.

—What! Is Qu Su really that useless?

— Pass this down, Qu Su is not acceptable.

—I laughed so hard I almost threw up.

"How can anyone spread rumors about me in the live stream right in front of me?!" Qu Su said, "Don't talk nonsense here and slander my innocence! I'm an open and honest friend with that person! We have a life-or-death bond. What do you mean by not interacting much? We're not even the same type of streamer. It's good enough that we have any interaction at all."

—Sure enough, let's just leave it at that, ladies. Qu Su is such a jerk, he doesn't deserve a romantic partner.

—The anchorwoman is so smart and clever, she doesn't seem to match Qu Su at all!

—Qu Su, my mother's eldest son, I couldn't argue with them, so I ran away.

"I'm bad at mahjong, but I'm not bad at other games," Qu Su retorted, one by one.

"You can lose a game, but you can't give up! How can you guys have no spirit of esports at all?"

"It's just a small amount of money; consider it a contribution to our national heritage."

"Me and Alai? How could I not have their contact information? Of course I do!"

I don't believe it.

I don't believe it either.

—Don't believe it? +1

—Disbelief+

Qu Su gave the live stream viewers a look that said, "I do have it, believe it or not."

The comments section was flooded with "Words are no proof."

Qu Su saw it too. His eyes darted around, and he revealed a mysterious expression. He said, "How about this? I'll make a bet with you. If I really have her contact information, then I win, and I'll dye my green hair back. What do you say?"

—Yes, but you need to show it to me right now.

—It can't be a comma-shaped tag for mutual followers; that's meaningless. It should be a private contact method.

—And you have to make the other side prove that it is her!

"I'll just show you once, why are you pushing your luck?" Qu Su said, dissatisfied.

—That's still too easy on you. How about this: if you can play one game with Alai, you can dye your hair back to its original color.

--Can

——Same as above

—But have you considered that other people might not want to play with him?

"Heh." Qu Su let out a sneer. "Just kidding, who could refuse me? I'm incredibly good at video games, okay?"

The word "disbelief" filled the entire live stream room.

Qu Su himself wasn't very confident, because he and Jiang Lai hadn't really chatted much since they became friends, and had only contacted each other once or twice. He really wasn't sure if she would agree to play games with him.

"Oops, I just realized I've already finished my live stream. I'll log off now, bye!" Qu Su glanced at his phone casually, then said smugly, "I'm off!"

Before his fans could react, he turned off the live stream.

—Now I'm starting to believe that he and Alai know each other. When these two said they were going to shut down the live stream, they really meant it!

—One who stays near vermilion gets stained red, and one who stays near ink gets stained black?

—? ? ? ?

—Are you trying to be a bad person again?

—I think he was just being cowardly, worried that we might make some more demands, so he quickly slipped away.

Ah, men.

……

Qu Su logged off, muttering to himself, "These people are really going too far. We need to teach them a lesson."

He took out his phone, ready to play a couple of games.

Because he needs to do live streams, he rents his own place outside. He's a local from Beijing, and he goes home to stay on weekends.

Today is a bit strange, there isn't a single friend online in the King of Glory game?

Seriously? Surely no one doesn't play games at night? A bunch of single people, what are you pretending for?

Qu Su was about to call for more people in the group when he suddenly spotted a familiar ID among a bunch of dark avatars and IDs.

"So what if I'm bad at the game?" Isn't this the random girl from the street? How come she's on my friends list?

He logs in to his game using WeChat, and he generally doesn't add people. If someone appears in his game friends list, it means they are also WeChat friends.

But he hadn't added anyone else during this time, or rather, not Jiang Lai. Could it be such a coincidence? Qu Su thought this was really too far-fetched. But thinking about it carefully, their voices were so similar.

After thinking it over, Qu Su decided to ask him himself and immediately sent a WeChat message.

Qu Su: [Screenshot] Is this you?

They replied very quickly.

Jiang Lai: Yes, orz

Qu Su stared wide-eyed and typed: Why didn't you tell me sooner?! You're pretending not to know me!!

Qu Su: Did you recognize me when we finished the offline competition at your school that day?

Qu Su: Actually, you've been my fan for a long time, haven't you?!

Qu Su: I knew your voice sounded familiar! But I never realized it was that way!

Qu Su: I have something to tell you!

Jiang Lai: ...What did you say?

Qu Su: My fans in the live stream really like you, but they don't believe I have your contact information. Would you mind proving it to me?

Jiang Lai: How do you prove it?

Qu Su: I'll call you during the next live stream, can you answer it?

Jiang Lai: Why should I cooperate with you?

Qu Su: !!! Because you didn't tell me before that you were the person I played games with!

Jiang Lai: You didn't ask.

Qu Su: But that makes sense. It's understandable that you're embarrassed to admit how bad you are at games, especially in front of an esports genius like me.

Jiang Lai: Are you out of your mind? If you keep nagging, I'll block you!

Qu Su: No, no, no!

Qu Su: I was wrong!

Qu Su: [Slide kneeling]

Qu Su: Want to play games? I'll show you how!

Jiang Lai: Don't fight

Qu Su: Okay, sob sob

Qu Su held his phone, lay on the bed, rolled around a couple of times, and got a little excited. He leaned against the headboard and continued typing.

Qu Su: We're friends, for goodness' sake! How heartless of you!

Jiang Lai: What exactly do you want to do?

Qu Su: Want to play mahjong? [Screenshot]

Qu Su: Your small act may save a broken family.

Jiang Lai: ......

Jiang Lai: Qu Su, quit gambling!

-

Jiang Lai looked at the message Qu Su had sent on her phone and found it somewhat amusing. This guy was really bad at mahjong but addicted, unlike her. She just accepted her fate when it came to games she couldn't play. She was actually a little surprised that Qu Su had only just discovered that they had played games together before.

Qu Su: So what do you usually play?

Jiang Lai: I don't play games, but I'm going to try out "Throne of Stars" next week.

Qu Su: What's wrong?

Jiang Lai: It's already been arranged with the studio, and I'm one of the voice actors in the game.

Qu Su: ?!

Qu Su quickly opened his Douyin private messages.

Anonymous worker: Hello Qu Su, I'm from the operations team at Thunderbolt Studio. Would you be interested in participating in our open beta livestream for *Star Throne*? My contact information is...

This game company had approached me before, but I declined without even looking into it because the game type wasn't my cup of tea. But now, Qu Su tearfully added them on WeChat.

Qu Su: Hello.

Across from: Have you changed your mind now?

Qu Su: Yes, I haven't played this type of game much, so after learning about it, I'm quite interested. I can do this live stream.

The other side: That's great! Let me explain the details to you. It's currently...

Qu Su finished talking with the person opposite him, which was about an hour later.

Qu Su: I understand, let's leave it at that for now!

Opposite party: Okay! Thank you for your cooperation!

Qu Su went back and sent a message to Jiang Lai.

Qu Su: I've also taken on the promotion for this game. Shall we add each other as friends and play together?

Jiang Lai: Sure.

Qu Su: How about we do a live stream together next Monday?

Jiang Lai: Still not giving up? Why are you so persistent?

Qu Su: This is about my hair. They said if I play games with you, I can dye my hair back to its original color.

Jiang Lai: I thought you really liked it.

Qu Su: Who would like someone with a green head?!

Jiang Lai: Okay!

Qu Su: [Bowing]

Qu Su: Thank you!

Jiang Lai: There's no need for that.

Jiang Lai replied with a couple of sentences, then went to do her own thing. She knew she'd be talking about games during the live stream, so she needed to do some research. At the very least, she needed to know the three characters she voiced better.
