Earlier than the livestream, the employees had knowledgeable the friends that there could be a recreation section to enliven the environment. In any case, a livestream could not be edited, and it will be boring if they only sat and talked all through your entire course of.

The script did not point out the precise recreation, so the friends casually requested about it. The employees merely talked about that it will be a easy recreation.

Now that the livestream had began, the host knowledgeable them that it was a recreation to strengthen the bond between {couples}. Nonetheless, one thing felt off.

Because the oldest visitor, Qiu Hong was the primary to ask, “What sort of recreation is it? Are you able to give us a touch?”

The host reassured them, “It is a easy recreation that does not require a lot considering.”

Qiu Hong frowned and raised his voice, “Why do you emphasize that it would not require considering? Do I appear like somebody who’s not appropriate for video games that require considering?”

His spouse, Chen Zitong, did not give him face and retorted, “In the event that they did not level it out, why would you assume that? Do not embarrass your self.”

Qiu Hong immediately deflated.

Wen Li recalled the earlier episodes when she went to Rong Metropolis to file a present. In addition they had a recreation section in Rong Metropolis that did not require considering, relying solely on luck. Because of this, she ended up making headlines within the visitors information and shedding face. So, she nervous that this time it could be one other luck-based recreation.

She would slightly take part in a recreation that required considering.

Curious, Wen Li leaned over and requested, “How many individuals are watching the livestream proper now?”

“Huh?” The host appeared on the employees member, “How many individuals are presently watching the livestream?”

The employees member gestured a quantity.

“Over ten million?” The host turned to Wen Li and mentioned, “There are over ten million viewers within the livestream proper now.”

“So many?!” Wen Li exclaimed.

“It is not unhealthy. We simply began the livestream, so the variety of viewers will solely improve. It is going to positively be a lot larger than my traditional gross sales livestreams, particularly since all of you might be right here as friends at the moment,” the host modestly waved his hand.

In the event that they misplaced the sport, they’d be embarrassing themselves in entrance of over ten million individuals — it will grow to be a scorching subject very quickly.

Wen Li, pushed by her sturdy need to win, immediately turned decided. She solemnly patted Tune Yan’s thigh and mentioned, “Let’s go, we won’t lose.”

Tune Yan was nonetheless in a state of confusion about what precisely a gross sales livestream was. When he heard the host point out one other recreation, he simply hoped it would not be associated to move.

There have been many friends within the livestream at the moment, so the venue was spacious. To make sure an excellent livestreaming impact, skilled high-definition tools was used. Not like on a telephone, they could not see the barrage in real-time, so the host and friends could not see the viewers’s suggestions.

「The main target of this recreation is to strengthen the bond between {couples}, not profitable or shedding! Wen Sanli, perceive the principle level!」

「Take a look at the confused expression on her face. Hilarious!」

「Is luck extra necessary than utilizing your mind? Then we will depend on Brother Hong to be the European Emperor.」

The barrage of feedback flew by. The employees accountable for monitoring the barrage of feedback would change digicam angles primarily based on the on its content material.

The employees had already organized the whole lot, so the host requested all of the friends to face and take their locations.

“Our first mini-game is expounded to the primary product that shall be launched at the moment, which is our Kuanfeng tissue. It is a well-known outdated model that 80s, 90s, and 2000s generations have been utilizing since childhood. The one now we have in our livestream at the moment is a restricted anniversary version of the Kuanfeng tissue, created from 100% pure plant fiber as uncooked materials, with a pure wooden coloration, 150 sheets, 4 layers, additional thick, and no value improve.”

Even promoting tissue could be described so extravagantly, actually a talented gross sales host.

The host continued to introduce the product very professionally, “It is extremely tender and delicate on the pores and skin, would not simply tear when moist, and is totally protected for infants to make use of. Alright, now let’s put the Kuanfeng tissue to the check in our livestream and see if it is actually tender and tear-resistant. We can have our friends use the Kuanfeng tissue as a prop for our first mini-game—the tissue-passing recreation!”

The barrage immediately crammed the display with query marks and “ahhhs”.

The tissue-passing recreation is much like different video games like passing water with paper cups or passing taking part in playing cards. One particular person holds or sucks the sport prop with their mouth and the opposite particular person catches it with their mouth. The workforce that completes essentially the most passes inside the given time wins. This recreation would not require a lot talent however has remained a basic recreation section in numerous selection reveals.

The reason being easy: the viewers is not actually watching the sport or involved about which workforce wins or loses. The main target of the sport lies in who fails to catch the prop correctly or unintentionally bumps their mouth in opposition to the opposite particular person’s. Whether or not it is a same-sex or opposite-sex unintentional encounter, if this system already hints at a transparent couple pairing or there is a slight trace of romance, having two friends expertise such an accident intentionally can tremendously improve this system’s impact and generate buzz.

This recreation has its execs and cons. The benefit lies in its potential for producing buzz and its sturdy leisure worth. If the friends can deal with it, it may be fairly enjoyable. The drawback lies in exploiting this ambiguous bodily contact for publicity. If the accident occurs between friends who do not have an excellent relationship, it not solely offends the friends themselves however also can spark fan conflicts.

Nonetheless, for actual {couples}, there’s completely no draw back.

「Assist, I am a loyal fan, and I really like this!!」

「Let’s play! In the event that they kiss, I will purchase the whole lot!!」

「Kuanfeng Dad is superior! We are able to confidently entrust at the moment’s gross sales to him!」

After explaining the sport guidelines, the host smiled and requested the friends to take their positions, “Okay, now let’s have our three {couples} take their positions. Since Yan Jun and Qi Sihan are intern couple, they will not take part on this mini-game. I am positive everybody understands, proper?”

「We perceive, we perceive.」

「Ahh, what a pity, however we perceive.」

「Lastly, I can calm down as a loyal fan.」

Yan Jun and Qi Sihan stood on the facet whereas the opposite three {couples} had been taking part in. It made them really feel awkward and misplaced.

They exchanged glances, feeling the stagnating environment, with the identical query of their eyes: Are you feeling awkward?

After which got here the identical reply from their eyes: Awkward.

It was then adopted by: It is not straightforward for us to earn cash.

The friends who weren’t taking part in felt awkward, whereas those that had been taking part in had their very own ideas. Qiu Hong was already in his thirties, and taking part in such an ambiguous recreation in entrance of over ten million livestream viewers, even when it was along with his spouse, there would not be any main points. Nonetheless, he felt that it was too apparent and contradicted his sturdy masculine picture.

Wen Li did not assume a lot of it. She even took a tissue and coated her lips first, inhaling and utilizing her lips to carry it. She discovered the tissue to be fairly tender, with simply the precise thickness, not simply falling aside. So long as she and Tune Yan coordinated nicely, profitable would not be tough.

The host shouted, “Begin!” and the sport formally started.

Throughout the first 5 seconds, an accident occurred with Qiu Hong’s couple—the tissue dropped.

His spouse burst into laughter and mentioned, “You must hold inhaling, in any other case, the tissue will fall!”

「They’re getting shut!!」

「Qiu Hong has a cheerful expression whereas being scolded by his spouse.」

「I can not, my mouth is already stretched to my temples.」

Due to this sudden mishap, the 2 of them argued over who did not maintain onto the tissue correctly. In the meantime, the opposite two {couples} took benefit of this time and shortly surpassed them within the variety of tissue passes.

Later, Qiu Hong’s couple began once more, however Ding Lebo’s couple had certainly one of them unable to carry again their laughter, and so they exhaled, blowing away the tissue from their mouth.

Now each Qiu Hong’s and Ding Lebo’s couple had been in chaos, blaming one another. The dwell stream room was stuffed with unusually noisy arguments. The host and employees subsequent to them had been amused, attempting exhausting to carry again their laughter.

With three minutes of recreation time about to move, they checked out Tune Yan and Wen Li’s couple.

…They had been calm, coordinated, and as regular as an outdated canine, as in the event that they had been in one other dimension.

Wen Li held the tissue first, tilting her head again, whereas Tune Yan lowered his head to catch the tissue from her mouth. They did not even use their arms, leisurely hanging by their sides. One particular person appeared up, the opposite appeared down, and within the blink of an eye fixed, they efficiently handed a stack of tissues.

「?」

「Can somebody clarify to me why the Salt Grain’s fashion is so totally different?」

「Assist! That is the primary time I’ve seen somebody play this recreation so peacefully.」

「No means, are these two truly taking part in the sport severely?」

「They’re so severe that I do not even know what to touch upon.」

「Tissue, you probably have any sense of justice, simply drop!」

「Tissue: What the fuck can I do?!」

Three minutes handed, and the outcomes of the sport had been unsurprising. Wen Li had been centered on her personal recreation and hadn’t paid consideration to the others. When she noticed the variety of tissues the opposite two {couples} had handed, after which checked out her personal and Tune Yan’s, her confidence skyrocketed. She casually brushed her fastidiously styled bangs apart and a assured smile of “The upper you might be, the colder it will get” appeared on her face.

“Are any of my followers watching the livestream?” Wen Li proudly mentioned to the digicam, “Superb, proper?”

「? Superb my foot.」

「Assist! What did she develop up consuming? How can she be so clueless?」

「Received the sport however misplaced in life.」

「What are you so happy with?」

「Sanli, you have already misplaced, you realize! The most important loser of this recreation is you and Beaty, together with us pitiful Salt Grain CP followers!」

「You rattling competitiveness, cannot you rein it in when it is best to? Would not it’s higher to promote extra tissues and make more cash?!」

「There is no prize for first place, do you actually need to take it so severely?」

「Magnificence, why are you so slow-witted at the moment? Did your spouse’s cluelessness rub off on you?!」

「Why do not you two simply workforce up and play esports? With out you, the spirit of this recreation, the esports business in our nation will endure a loss.」

The employees accountable for managing the feedback barrage had been virtually going loopy with laughter.

Wen Li could not see the barrage, so she naturally had no concept that her creativeness of her followers’ reactions and the actual reactions of her followers’ had been fully reverse.

Tune Yan, then again, might guess the followers’ reactions.

He glanced at Wen Li, who had gained the sport, and figured that her confidence and dignity had taken successful by the earlier recreation section in Rong Metropolis. Now, by profitable this easy recreation with little talent concerned, she was capable of redeem herself and regain her dignity. She was beaming with delight and her invisible tail was wagging within the air.

Tune Yan smiled and requested her, “Are you cheerful?”

Wen Li raised an eyebrow at him and replied, “En.”

「You spoil her an excessive amount of.」

「What does it imply to present me a sweet after slapping me? Take it away! No thanks!」

「The sister above, maintain on, I will kowtow first as an indication of respect.」

The sport section was meant to enliven the environment. It was advantageous to not take it severely, but it surely was additionally advantageous to take it severely. After the primary small recreation section ended, in accordance with the script, the host was speculated to take management and transfer on to the following section.

“Oh? The feedback barrage is asking for one more spherical?” the host chuckled, “Did not you see sufficient within the earlier spherical?”

They hadn’t seen sufficient, so after all, they wished one other spherical.

The tissue model individuals had been delighted to see this, so the host invited the friends for one more spherical, emphasizing that it was for leisure and so they did not must play too severely.

The host mentioned they may play casually, however Wen Li felt that she could not lose this spherical both. She needed to win two rounds in a row to show her expertise on this recreation.

On this spherical, the passing began from Tune Yan’s facet. As quickly because the host shouted “begin”, Tune Yan coated his mouth with the tissue and obediently bent down, indicating for Wen Li to inhale.

Simply as Wen Li leaned in, she seen that Tune Yan, who had been severe within the earlier spherical, appeared to have been persuaded by the host and was now goofing round.

The 2 of them had been very shut and Wen Li might clearly really feel the brief exhalations from Tune Yan hitting her face.

He was secretly laughing.

When individuals snicker, they exhale. Along with his deep laughter, the tissue on his mouth undulated like waves. Wen Li was shocked by his laughter and stopped just some centimeters away from his mouth, afraid to proceed.

In these temporary seconds, Wen Li’s coronary heart was pounding unusually, and a battle raged inside her. Tune Yan seen her hesitation and eventually raised his hand, utilizing one hand to cup her face and information her in the direction of him.

The Salt Grain CP followers within the barrage clearly seen the distinction between this recreation and the earlier one.

「Assist, Tune Yan is so good!!!」

「Effectively executed, Magnificence!!!!」

「Darn it, the face-cupping and jawline-killing, the angle of that kiss, I am useless, I am useless, I am useless!」

「Sisters, get able to take screenshots!!! We’ve got our telephone wallpapers for the following half 12 months!!!」

「Tissue, cannot you’ve got some foresight!!!!」

「Tune Yan, are you a person or not! In case you are, blow the tissue away for me!!!」

After all, Tune Yan was a person, as a result of at that second, he truly blew the tissue away.

From the second Wen Li heard him chuckling, she knew she could not depend on him. She squinted her eyes, raised her arm, and slapped her total palm onto Tune Yan’s face, then pushed his face away.

Tune Yan’s good-looking face acquired a slap. With the heat of Wen Li’s palm on his lips, he did not react and remained frozen.

Wen Li sternly reprimanded him, “Take this severely!”

Tune Yan: “…”

Different friends watching: “…”

The host and all of the employees: “…”

Director Yan: “@#@￥%#.”

「?」

「Brother, I am tender from being cute.」

「Wen Sanli, had been you raised in metal manufacturing unit?」

「This lady could have a shocking face, however she’s so clueless that it is driving everybody loopy. I can not stand it anymore.」

「I unintentionally shared the dwell stream hyperlink in my household group chat. Due to Sanli, I prevented social loss of life. This CP fan is crying in anger.」

「Neglect it, I already took the screenshot. The tissue could be photoshopped away. Barely usable. Rattling, I am so good at coaxing myself.」

Wen Li was oblivious to the barrage. After the sport section ended, to advertise the tissues, she held a pack of tissues in her hand and sweetly addressed all of the viewers within the dwell chat, “Our Kuanfeng tissues are actually tender, light on the pores and skin, and never simply torn. Purchase them!”

「Purchase your personal crap.」

「Thanks, however no thanks.」

「Apart from Kuanfeng, are there every other tissue manufacturers that the members of the family within the barrage advocate? I am considering of shopping for a number of circumstances to top off.」

The tissue model individuals on the facet: “…”

——

Wen Li solely noticed the trending matters about herself after the livestream ended.

#WenLiTheFirstReversePromoter#

#WenLiTheSteelStraightGirl#

#HeartbrokenForSongYan#

What does “reverse promotion” imply? Did not the host point out earlier than leaving that the tissues had been promoting out?

Slander, absolute slander.

She sat within the automotive, fairly dissatisfied, and requested, “Which rival household purchased me this damaging trending subject?”

Wen Wen patiently replied, “Sister, these are real trending matters that your followers pushed up for you.”

“…”

Wen Li had nothing to say and will solely search validation from Tune Yan once more.

However Tune Yan fully ignored her and, along with his eyes closed, mentioned in a low voice, “Go cry to your followers.”

“…”

Wen Li was struck by his chilly perspective, and helplessly mentioned, “What’s flawed with you? Are you mad at me simply because I slapped you through the livestream?”

“No,” Tune Yan opened his eyes, turned his face away, and gazed on the lovely night time scene outdoors the automotive window with a melancholic tone, “I am simply heartbroken for myself.”

Wen Li recalled the trending subject #HeartbrokenForSongYan#.

She opened her mouth, desirous to snicker however restraining herself. She endured all of it the way in which from the automotive to her dwelling.

She was aggressive, cared about profitable or shedding within the recreation, and moreover, they’d kissed privately earlier than, so there was no must kiss in entrance of tens of tens of millions of individuals. They might find yourself on the trending matters once more, embarrassing each of them. She would not dare to take a look at Weibo for a number of days…

Lastly, after enduring all of it the way in which dwelling, as quickly as she entered the home and turned on the lights, Tune Yan turned into slippers and walked in the direction of the couch. Wen Li adopted behind him, taking a look at his again, and immediately gathered her power and pounced on him.

Tune Yan was caught off guard by her sudden assault and stumbled ahead two steps. After regaining his steadiness, he rotated and pinched her face, with a touch of helplessness and anger in his tone, “What are you doing?”

With Tune Yan pinching her face, Wen Li did not cry out in ache or get offended. Her voice was candy as she mentioned, “You are so cute.”

Tune Yan: “?”

“Trainer Tune, you are so cute,” Wen Li hugged his neck, tilted her head up, and planted a kiss on his chin, “How did I not understand how cute you might be earlier than!”

The person’s face was tense, he did not say a phrase, and the place the place she kissed felt ticklish.

Seeing that he did not push her away, Wen Li gathered her braveness and requested, “Are you aware how cute you might be?”

Tune Yan’s Adam’s apple moved barely, he sighed, “I do not know if I am cute or not, however I really feel like I am straightforward to coax.”

On the identical time, many of the A-D digicam crew members who accompanied the chief director Yan Zhengkui to at the moment’s livestream venue had already left. Nonetheless, Director Yan thought it will be safer if the friends arrived dwelling first after the livestream, so the cameras and audio gadgets had been left on. Because of this, the A workforce cameramen downstairs had been left behind to observe the cameras. One of many employees members, who was consuming takeout whereas on responsibility, muttered to himself.

“I feel I will ask for a increase.”
