Yan Chuan frowned and clicked into the post.
There were many replies underneath, and he quickly scanned through about ten pages, finding the responses quite enthusiastic.
1L: “Get lost, the real world isn’t enough for you to fantasize about; even watching a live stream you have to go on a mating display?”
2L: “A pretty wife? Sounds like she has a husband. Are you sure you can compete with her husband?”
3L: “Wait… are you talking about an NPC or a player? I remember this dungeon is a revenge one; where did this beauty come from?”
4L: “Inciting conflict; reported. Do not reply.”
…
Yan Chuan flipped a page and finally saw some serious discussions.
17L: “After all this time, why hasn’t anyone posted a picture? Even shooting at the void should have a picture, right?”
After being criticized for several layers, the original poster finally emerged and posted a picture.
Lz: “It’s really beautiful! I saw it when I was scanning the public live broadcast room. It was a risky screenshot; don’t share it outside; let’s keep it within our district.”
18L: “…”
19L: “What the… where did this beauty come from?”
20L: “I want to see all his information in three minutes!”
21L: “Wife!!!”
23L: “Are you out of your mind? Isn’t this a guy? Why call him wife?”
24L: “Husband sounds disgusting; only words like wife are worthy!”
25L: “My destined wife, ky, get lost and don’t compete with me!”
27L: “Lz, it’s over; this post will definitely get moved.”
Lz: “You guys are way too quick to turn on each other, aren’t you? So does anyone know which player this is? I really want to pursue him!”
36L: “Can’t remember when you were watching the live stream, now you’re diving into the ocean for a needle, right?”
48L: “What are you thinking? He probably has a husband or a boyfriend; does it even matter to you?”
…
After four or five pages of infatuated discussions, someone finally provided an answer.
148L: “He must be a newcomer, right? Looking that pretty, it’s impossible not to be noticed. [Apartment No. 13] is also friendly to newcomers; definitely a rookie. Lz, you can check the live broadcast replays for the past seven days.”
168L: “If you find out, can you ask for me if someone in the top hundred rankings can be his boyfriend?”
200L: “Get lost; only a hundred? Don’t you think someone in the top ten could be his husband?”
201L: “Replying to the one above, sorry, our top hundred just have thick skin, can be a third party.”
202L: “Get lost.”
…
Lz: “There’s foul language; enforce the mute.”
Yan Chuan remained silent for a long time, and it took four or five messages from Shan Qi for him to notice.
“What’s wrong?” Shan Qi asked, “Do you have enough points? Should I buy the replay of your live stream and send it to you?”
“It’s inconvenient to watch on the computer,” he added, “But you can come to my house; I have a projector, and I’m also in A City.”
“Really?”
Yan Chuan raised an eyebrow, “But I see it’s sunny in your photo; isn’t it pouring in A City?”
These days, it had turned chilly with wind and rain in A City, and the nurses wouldn’t let him go out for fresh air.
Shan Qi was finally not giving an immediate response. After a moment, he sent, “Hmm… I do have a set of houses in A City, and I can get there soon.”
Yan Chuan: “^-^”
Shan Qi quickly sent a few crying dog emojis.
Distracted by him, Yan Chuan looked back at that post.
Flipping to the last page, he could still see the repeated references to that photo.
Yan Chuan pressed his lips together.
The photo was slightly blurry, captured as a screenshot. However, it was still evident that the young man in the picture had a fair, beautiful face and a vaguely melancholic aura.
His features were vivid and lively, with a delicate outline. The dark eyes appeared to hold a body of water, and the slightly upturned nose had a cute curve.
At just the right moment of talking to someone, his long, thick lashes hung down, and his lips were slightly parted, revealing a hint of a smile. The small lip beads were plump and full.
He was turned slightly, just enough to show a length of his long neck and delicate collarbone.
It was as if he were smiling directly at those watching him.
The other person was ruthlessly marked out with a huge cross; their face wasn’t even fully captured.
Yan Chuan stared in silence.
He was certainly not unable to recognize his own face, but… when was this?
Moreover, were people on this forum really this… enthusiastic? Calling someone ‘wife’ without even knowing them?
His gaze painfully skimmed over a sea of ‘wife’ posts, and Yan Chuan felt a bit confused.
Forget it.
Yan Chuan flipped straight to the last page, confirmed that no one had found his live stream, and then exited.
He was a newcomer, and his live stream ranking was very low; unless he watched each person who entered the escape variety show around the same time, it would be hard to find him.
But this reminded Yan Chuan of something.
He exited the post and clicked into the “Live Replay” section.
The top few windows were showing several players’ live streams in succession. Yan Chuan glanced briefly and confirmed that they were almost all well-known players.
As for the first… he took a look at that gray “Residence” and found his score had reached an astounding tens of millions.
Compared to the second place, it was more than double.
Yan Chuan thought about his paltry four thousand points.
To save his life, he only needed a hundred thousand points, but this person had tens of millions and still wouldn’t stop… how big must their wishes be?
But that wasn’t Yan Chuan’s concern anymore. He entered his number, intending to check his live stream.
However, unlocking the replay required five hundred points. Yan Chuan hesitated for a moment and then pressed the confirm button.
Watching the replay would allow him to see where he fell short, analyzing the script and plot. It was somewhat practical, after all.
As the gray screen brightened, Yan Chuan clicked play.
Unlocking required five hundred points; it was surprisingly linked with the barrage comments that floated densely above the live stream.
