After Dumping the Scumbag Top, I Was Relentlessly Chased by a Top-Tier Idol - Chapter 31.1

Shen Xu’s question flushed out a crowd of lurking IDs, and the bullet chat refreshed frantically:

Aya ya ya… I can’t even watch what I want to see on a livestream blushes deeply

One person writing in blood: you two just pick any fanfic from “Xu Ri Xiang Zhou” and perform it live on the spot!!

Can I ask a question? Who did Teacher Shen sleep with last night?

Shen Xu’s gaze swept across the bullet chat, repeating nonchalantly, “Who did I sleep with?”

He tilted his head to look at Lin Yizhou, looking perfectly innocent. “Captain, can I say it?”

Lin Yizhou didn’t answer him but addressed the chat directly: “Because Teacher Shen was injured because of me, the director arranged for me to be with him.”

The bullet chat exploded instantly, filled with all sorts of bizarre vocabulary and soaring imagination.

Shen Xu’s sharp eyes caught a topic he wanted to address: “Teacher Shen, since you were in a tent with Teacher Lin, do you think there were mosquitoes last night? Teacher Lin was bitten by mosquitoes, my heart aches for him~”

If I’m not mistaken, Shen Xu, you’re reading the comment I sent, right? But I didn’t say the ‘heart aches’ part?

Turns out Shen Xu is adding his own private goods!!

Damn, how is this any different from an official announcement.

Ignoring the various teases in the chat, Shen Xu answered his own question leisurely: “Last night… if my Captain says there were mosquitoes, then there were mosquitoes.”

The entire bullet chat

Shen Xu chuckled and calmly shifted the topic: “Let’s get back to the main point. If you guys don’t say what you want to see us stream, we’re turning it off.”

“Be a bit more serious.”

The entire bullet chat

The chat was clearly unwilling, but fans began to obediently suggest “serious” ideas.

Just as everyone was brainstorming for the two, a sudden golden bullet comment burst in: 【Just came back from eating melons on Weibo, Song Chizheng and Jiang Siyuan officially announced it??! It’s dominating the trending searches! What’s the situation? What’s the situation? Someone give me the tea! I’m the King of Impatience!

Damn, I saw it too. Now Jiang Siyuan’s livestream room popularity is skyrocketing! It’s even starting to lag.

Hiss, the spectacle is comparable to when Song Chizheng and Lin Yizhou announced back then!

Heavens, Lin Yizhou and Jiang Siyuan look so much alike. Is this really not a real-life melodramatic ‘substitute’ trope?

There’s another possibility is it actually that Song Chizheng can’t have Lin Yizhou, so he found Jiang Siyuan as a substitute?

I feel like a mole running and screaming in a melon field right now. So anxious, so anxious! Lin Yizhou, hurry up and respond!

Respond to what? They announce theirs, what does it have to do with Zhouzhou? Don’t just watch the chaos for fun!!

Hehe, the other side actually responded. Original words: ‘I don’t know anything about substitutes, I only know that Ah Song and I love each other very much.’ I’m literally screaming; is this the aura of the main consort?

Looking at it this way, Lin Yizhou is definitely a substitute. He probably doesn’t even dare to make a peep, let alone respond.

Shen Xu reached out, blocking the screen in front of Lin Yizhou, clicking on his phone. “Captain, let me see which livestream category is the hottest. We’ll stream whatever is most popular, okay?”

As he spoke, he looked back at Lin Yizhou. His fingers stopped clicking, but his hand remained in place.

Lin Yizhou’s expression remained normal. “Okay.”

Shen Xu observed his expression, his finger gradually moving toward the “Exit” button. Once he confirmed Lin Yizhou was truly unaffected, he moved his hand away, operating the phone while saying, “Alright, let me see…”

“Gaming livestreams are the hottest. Want to play?”

He turned to ask Lin Yizhou, his hand still shielding the screen.

God, Shen Xu, can you move your hand? You’re stopping me from seeing Lin Yizhou’s peerless beauty!

Protecting his wife, protecting his wife. This is definitely protecting his wife, I get it!

Playing games is good! I like playing games too!

Lin Yizhou nodded in agreement. “I’m fine with anything.”

Shen Xu continued looking at the screen, found the name of a game, and asked, “Does the Captain know this game?”

Lin Yizhou shook his head slightly. “I never play games.”

No time, and no interest.

A faint light flickered in Shen Xu’s eyes, but he quickly concealed it. He suppressed the corners of his mouth from curling up, but he couldn’t suppress the slight rise in his tone: “What a coincidence, I never play games either. Then this will be our first time for both of us.”

Lin Yizhou nodded, then took out his phone to download the game.

Tsk, neither of them has played. Is this going to be a ‘noob fight’?

Since you haven’t played, you guys shouldn’t play. This is a team game, consider your teammates’ feelings.

I feel like I can’t control my mouth from cursing anymore.

Tsk, acting all high and mighty just because you can play a game. They’re new, can’t they have time to adapt? Maybe they’ll crush you after one round.

The sister above is my mouthpiece! If you’re so pro, why didn’t I see you at the Olympics? All you do is bark behind a screen.

In the livestream, Lin Yizhou and Shen Xu were tacitly focused on the game’s tutorial. Neither paid any attention to the situation in the chat.

After finishing the tutorial, they both went to familiarize themselves with the skills and equipment of different roles, not in a rush to start.

Once they were roughly familiar, Shen Xu changed his in-game ID.

Xiang Zhou Bu Wan (Towards the Boat is Not Late)? Shen Xu, oh Shen Xu, with this ‘Boat’ (Zhou), it’s hard for me not to think too much!

Xiang Zhou Bu Wan! I don’t care! I’m shipping it first! ‘Xu Ri Xiang Zhou’ is definitely real!

What is this? What’s in the heads of these CP fans? Isn’t ‘Xiang Zhou Bu Wan’ just a lyric from Shen Xu’s single ‘Xiang Zhou Yi Wan’ (Towards the Boat is Already Late) from two years ago? Original lyric: ‘How I wish, it wasn’t too late to head toward the boat.’ Stop trying to link everything to Lin Yizhou, okay?

The person above actually reminded me what if ‘Xiang Zhou Yi Wan’ was written for Lin Yizhou? Calculating the timeline, two years ago was exactly when Lin Yizhou and Song Chizheng announced their relationship. That truly was ‘too late to head toward the boat’!

Sister above, you really know how to ship. I’m following you from now on!

You CP fans are being too ridiculous. They didn’t even know each other back then!!! This is truly ‘ridiculous’s mother opening the door for ridiculous’ ridiculous has come home! Get out! Shen Xu is beautiful on his own!

Shen Xu didn’t look at the chat and didn’t know about the discussion. After changing his ID, he tilted his head and asked, “Captain, did you change your ID name?”

Lin Yizhou nodded.

Shen Xu was curious. “What did you change it to?”

Lin Yizhou told the truth. “The 25th Hour.”

Shen Xu: “Why that one?”

“Just picked it randomly.” Lin Yizhou changed the subject. “Let’s start.”

Shen Xu nodded and didn’t press further, turning back to adjust the camera angle.

Brother, keep asking! This ID is definitely related to you. I saw Zhouzhou looking at you for a while before coming up with it!

Yes, hurry up and ask! Just for me, ask a few more questions. Zhouzhou doesn’t hide things; if you ask again, he might confess.

Shen Xu glanced at the screen. There were still some troublemakers shouting in the chat, but more were asking him to keep questioning Lin Yizhou about the ID.

He turned back, looking at Lin Yizhou.

Sensing the gaze, Lin Yizhou looked up to meet it, appearing perfectly calm. “What’s wrong?”

Shen Xu smiled and shook his head slightly. “Nothing. Let’s begin.”

Entering the lobby, they chose heroes.

Lin Yizhou quickly locked in a Marksman hero. Seeing this, Shen Xu quickly locked in a Support hero.

Upon entering the game, the Jungler opened the mic and shouted, “Support, follow me in a bit.”

The countdown ended, and the game began.

As the Support, Shen Xu did not follow the Jungler. Instead, he hopped along behind Lin Yizhou’s Marksman.

The Jungler opened the mic again: “Marksman? ID ‘Xiang Zhou Bu Wan’, are you deaf? Do you know how to play? Didn’t you hear me tell you to follow me?”

Tsk, noobs should just listen to advice. Why are you messing around? Isn’t this playstyle just asking for a scolding?

Hiss, the Jungler’s hero needs to farm early on. If the Support doesn’t follow, how is he supposed to play…

Watching an idiot play games really makes one vomit blood.

Hahaha, how else? He’ll be suppressed and beaten by the enemy Jungle King.

What kind of confusing move is Lin Yizhou making? A Marksman going to the mid-lane, leaving the bottom lane wide open for the enemy? Is he a mole sent by the other side?

Lin Yizhou was familiarizing himself with the controls, hiding under his own defensive tower to farm minions.

But he soon discovered the problem himself. He observed the enemy Marksman’s movements. When the enemy had attacked his bottom outer tower to half health, he rushed toward the bottom lane. But before he could even run under his own tower, he was killed by the enemy Marksman first. Having the Support by his side didn’t help much.

The screen displayed the “First Blood” notification.

Is Lin Yizhou an idiot? Rushing to give a kill?

Meanwhile, in the jungle, the enemy Jungler had chosen a hero that was very strong in the early game. From the controls, they were clearly a very skilled player. They quickly cleared their own jungle and invaded Lin Yizhou’s team’s jungle.

The allied Jungler was soon killed, yielding the second kill.

The Jungler shouted into the mic furiously: “Support, do you not understand human speech, you idiot? What’s the point of following the Marksman? Damn it, you’re pissing me off.”

Lin Yizhou frowned. “Shen Xu, go over and follow him.”

Shen Xu obeyed obediently. “Okay.”

After Lin Yizhou respawned, he went straight to the bottom lane. By this time, the enemy Marksman had already destroyed one tower and was attacking the middle-tier tower.

Once the Jungler respawned, Shen Xu maneuvered his hero toward the Jungler’s position and followed behind him.

Despite this, the enemy Jungler showed no intention of retreating, rushing forward for a face-to-face confrontation.

The Jungler didn’t last two moves before being killed again.

Enraged, the Jungler let out a stream of insults over the mic: “Support, do you even know how to play? Damn it, you’re supposed to help me, you know? Do you understand human speech, you idiot? If you hadn’t refused to come support me earlier, the gold gap between me and the enemy wouldn’t be this huge!”

Shen Xu frowned. This time, he didn’t indulge him and spoke directly into the mic: “Am I your Support or your legal guardian? You died because you’re trash, yet you blame your father for not protecting you well?”

Compared to the Jungler’s hysterical rage, Shen Xu’s tone was incredibly steady, without any fluctuation, carrying a sense of utter contempt as if he didn’t even acknowledge the other person’s existence.

Low damage, but extremely insulting.

Jungler: “Damn you, have the guts to 1v1 me after the game.”

Shen Xu: “I don’t want to fight a respawning minion.”

After saying that, he directly muted the Jungler’s mic.

Well-said!

As expected, the one shouting the loudest in the game is usually the one with the worst skills. The Jungler’s moves just now almost sent me to my grave… even the best healer in the country couldn’t save that.

Exactly, I don’t know if he sells pancakes because he’s so good at ‘flipping’ (shifting) the blame. For a first-timer, the Support is doing quite well.

Less than ten minutes in, Lin Yizhou’s team had lost three kills, and the entire team’s gold was significantly behind the enemy’s.

A guaranteed losing game.

Wow, I feel like the Marksman is improving. He hasn’t been killed again and even knows how to use hit-and-run tactics.

He’s at low health. I feel like it’s coming soon; after all, the gap between him and the enemy Marksman is still quite large.

In the bottom lane, Lin Yizhou’s hero was at sliver health, hiding behind the tower and picking moments to attack the enemy Marksman. Sometimes he hit; more often, he was dodged.

After several rounds of this, the enemy Marksman clearly lost patience and dove directly into the tower range to kill him.

Lin Yizhou maneuvered his hero to flee, but the enemy Marksman suddenly flashed in front of him. Lin Yizhou made a last-second turn, but… it seemed too late…

At the life-or-death crisis, Shen Xu’s hero flashed in front of Lin Yizhou’s, blocking the damage for him.

The screen didn’t turn grey, and there was no system notification.

He survived.

Wow, that play by the Support was so cool! Shen Xu is so cool!

Are the Marksman and Support really playing for the first time? They’re picking it up so fast!

In the game, seeing the kill attempt fail, the enemy Marksman quickly left the tower’s attack range. He didn’t leave completely, hovering around the edge of the tower range, waiting for an opportunity.

Shen Xu’s gaze narrowed slightly. “Captain, go ahead. I’m right behind you.”

Lin Yizhou: “Mm.”

With that, Lin Yizhou moved his hero to the front of the tower.

Seeing him actively approach, the enemy Marksman seemed even more excited and rushed forward.

The two engaged in a direct confrontation. The scene was intense. Lin Yizhou’s health was depleting faster, and he was soon back to fighting with a sliver of health, but the enemy Marksman’s health had also taken a significant hit this time.

There was a chance for a counter-kill!

Shen Xu finished off the enemy Support nearby, once again quickly and accurately blocking damage for Lin Yizhou’s hero, while timely providing a heal.

Support
