"Yanyan, we're going on stage together later. Are you nervous?" Ji Siyue asked just to ease the atmosphere.
Who would have thought that this new anchor, who she saw every day but had never taken the initiative to talk to, would roll her eyes at her and say, "Of course not. I participated in similar events when I was in another guild. But Sister Yueyue, you've never been to one like this, right? Don't worry. I'll look after you."
Ji Siyue scratched her nose, wondering secretly where she had gone wrong. She was sure she hadn't offended the girl.
What she didn't know was that Yanyan had been secretly angry for a long time.
The guild had spent a fortune to poach Yanyan from another place. She thought she would be the guild's top - promoted anchor after she came. However, the guild seemed to favor this game anchor with medium popularity, Ji Siyue. They left Yanyan in the cold for two whole months before promoting her.
Worse still, she was only the second - ranked anchor, one notch lower than Ji Siyue. How could she bear this? Naturally, she was unhappy.
Now seeing how beautiful Ji Siyue was, she felt a sense of crisis. She thought that if Ji Siyue showed her face during the live - stream, she might even be more popular than herself.
While both of them were lost in their own thoughts, the official staff came and led them to the front stage.
On the autograph - signing stage, the host introduced the two anchors one by one.
As soon as Ji Siyue appeared, there were continuous screams from the audience, all marveling at her beauty. Some even shouted that it was a waste for her not to show her face during the live - stream. She felt quite helpless.
During this time, Ji Siyue took a quick look around and found that most of the people below were her fans, while Yanyan didn't have as many. It made sense. Ji Siyue's fans were die - hard, while Yanyan's fans mostly just came to watch her sing and dance and wouldn't go out of their way to come to the carnival just for a new anchor.
Yanyan also noticed this and her face looked unpleasant.
They were both anchors from the same company and guild, but the number of people queuing up for Ji Siyue's autograph was twice as many as hers, making her seem like a mere decoration.
Those who came to Ji Siyue were all her die - hard fans who had watched her live - stream for a long time. Each of them would praise her looks when they came in front of her and say how much they liked her.
Ji Siyue would sincerely express her gratitude and then carefully sign her name - Ji Siyue - stroke by stroke.
After getting the autograph, those people would go out and immediately post pictures of themselves with Ji Siyue and her autograph on Weibo and tag her.
[Mooncake is so cute! Mom, I'm in love! Her voice is so nice! Her skin is great too. She looks really good in the pictures without any filters. Everyone knows that. The cutest thing is her autograph. Little Mooncake must be coming to a carnival like this for the first time. That vase - like anchor beside her signed in a fancy but hasty way. Only Mooncake wrote her name carefully stroke by stroke and even drew a little heart after each name. Such a treasure of an anchor deserves to be popular forever! @Ji Siyue #Carnival#Ji Siyue COS]
Pictures were attached below.
As soon as this Weibo post went out, more people who got the autograph and pictures with Ji Siyue posted on Weibo to show off, pushing her straight onto the trending list!
At this time, in the carnival lounge.
Qin Chengyao was browsing Weibo, and all the topics he saw were about Ji Siyue. After looking for a while, he smiled contentedly, and there was even a kind of fatherly kindness in his eyes.
Lao Zhang, the organizer of the carnival, walked over, smiling at Qin Chengyao and saying, "Rare for you to agree to come to the carnival. You're going to be the grand finale later. Are you excited?"
"What's there to be excited about? I'm just here to accompany someone."
"Oh, is it that little anchor?"
Hearing this, Qin Chengyao looked up, stared at Lao Zhang seriously, and said word by word, "She has an immeasurable future."
"True. With you around, how could she not have a bright future? Those things the other day were really, tsk - tsk."
"She has also worked hard. It's not all because of me."
An attendant came to call Qin Chengyao to enter the stage. Qin Chengyao changed his clothes, put on a mask, and said, "Let's go."
"Are you still not going to show your face?" Lao Zhang frowned.
"No. I don't want to disrupt my life."
Lao Zhang compromised, "Alright. Anyway, it adds more mystery. Most of the people here today are for you. Do me a favor and promote the game more."
Qin Chengyao didn't say anything else and followed the attendant out.
The slanting stage lights shone on him, making him incredibly eye - catching.
After Ji Siyue got off the stage, she stood below, waiting for Huang Feng to appear.
People kept coming to ask for her autograph and pictures, but she refused, saying that she had already signed and signing below would disrupt the order. If they really wanted it, she would apply for an extra half - hour for autograph - signing after the normal event sequence ended.
Normally, people would feel bad when they were rejected and might even smear the person on Weibo, but it was completely different with Ji Siyue. Instead, many people praised her.
For a while, two topics about Ji Siyue firmly occupied the trending list, and the popularity of her Weibo and live - stream room soared.
In just a few hours, she gained more than a million new fans, but she didn't know this at all. She was waiting for the long - awaited Huang Feng!
Finally, that person appeared on the stage.
The excited look in Ji Siyue's eyes instantly turned into shock the moment that person appeared.
Although that person didn't show his face, his figure, walking posture, and the aura he exuded all told her that this was the person she was familiar with, the person who had been disturbing her mind recently.
For a moment, her shock was off the charts.
It was him?! How could it be him?
When Huang Feng was a professional player before, he always sat during games and never accepted interviews. Ji Siyue had very little impression of him, but this time she recognized him.
So, Huang Feng had always been by her side?
"Mooncake, what's wrong with you?" an unknown fan beside her asked.
Ji Siyue suddenly smiled, "What a coincidence."
"What? Nothing. Huang Feng is out. He's my idol!" As she said this, Ji Siyue had already resumed her star - struck fan look, and the glittering look in her eyes was captured by someone. Along with Huang Feng on the stage, the CP fans of the anchor - fan and the great player pair pushed her onto the trending list again.
