TRMLCM Chapter 12

Chapter 12: Video

Cheng Yi watched the man in the livestream, his eyes shimmering, the corners of his eyes slightly red, unable to suppress his excitement. First, he appreciatively enjoyed the scene filled with a sense of fragility, and then casually shifted his gaze to the public screen.

Shen Chang’an couldn’t see the comments in the livestream, but he could.

“Cy boss is too powerful, boss is generous!”

“Cy boss is awesome!”

“Mu An, don’t get too excited, your eyes are red.”

“Cy: I’m here, no one else matters.”

“It’s strange, why doesn’t this sound so imposing when we type it out?”

“You don’t have Cy boss’s strength, how dare you imitate him?”

“Tsk, overconfident man, don’t be too cocky.”

“Baby, we’re all here.”

“New here, can someone tell me why the special effects haven’t stopped? How many were sent?”

“Guess, one special effect lasts about ten seconds. How long would over a hundred and thirty take?”

“!!! About twenty minutes, wow.”

“Is this streamer a newbie? Haven’t seen him before, is his Big Sister spoiling him this much?”

“Upstairs is wrong, wrong! This is our streamer’s Big Brother.”

“Cy boss’s hand speed was so fast just now.”

“Big Brother is awesome! Cy boss is awesome!”

…

Joke, how could Cheng Yi’s hand speed, honed by twenty years of being single, not be fast?

Cheng Yi raised his eyebrows, listening to Shen Chang’an’s clear, cold singing voice, while amusingly watching the comments. The content mainly fell into three categories: one was admiring his strength and constantly worshipping him; another was praising Shen Chang’an’s singing, confessing their love and cheering for him; and the third was newcomers brought in by the system’s promotion, who were curious about why the special effects in the livestream hadn’t stopped and were asking about what just happened.

But besides these three types, there were also one or two inexplicable comments mixed in.

“Sisters, the video is up on my page, everyone go eat!”

“Awesome, sister, you have food so quickly, thanks for the hard work! I’m going first.”

“CPs can be niche, but they can’t be twisted. They haven’t even interacted much, how did you start shipping them?”

“Who said that? Who said there wasn’t any interaction? Look at when Mu An was about to lose, Cy boss came and sent gifts to help Mu An score points. Mu An said, ‘It’s good you’re here,’ and the boss said, ‘I’m here, no one else matters!’ Ahhhhhh!”

“I won’t let you go against my CP! The CP I ship is definitely real! (Roaring version)”

“Sisters ahhhh, I just saw that interaction and started shipping them! You have great taste.”

“Hehehe, you’re not bad either, sisters go check out my page, freshly baked food, still hot!”

Cheng Yi looked at these strange comments, vaguely feeling that these people were talking about him and Shen Chang’an. He frowned and clicked into that person’s page. Below was a video, and from the video cover, it was clear that it was a recording of Shen Chang’an’s livestream.

He curiously clicked in, and a clear, cold voice rang out along with sweet background music filled with the feeling of romance.

He seemed to be back in Shen Chang’an’s livestream.

“Welcome Cy boss.”

“I like?”

“I prefer, Cy boss.”

“Cy, it’s good you’re here.”

The meticulously edited video was full of pink bubbles, as if dyeing Shen Chang’an’s fair cheeks red. His face was flushed, his eyes filled with affection as he looked straight ahead. That clear, cold voice seemed to soften, sweetly expressing his love with a rich smile.

No, not to him, just to the name Cy.

The last part of the video was that fleeting heart gesture. Cheng Yi remembered this. It was the night he first entered Shen Chang’an’s livestream. After he gave the other party a gift, Shen Chang’an made the gesture unintentionally. Perhaps feeling too shy, Shen Chang’an never did it again, at most just making a small finger heart.

The last second of the video, the heart disappeared, and the picture froze on that flushed face, with eyes panicked and evasive, like someone blushing and finally confessing to their crush, but before even waiting for an answer, they could no longer bear the shyness in their heart and wanted to escape the scene.

How could this little fox be so cute?

Cheng Yi couldn’t help but watch it again, his dark eyes revealing joy, the more he watched, the more he liked it. He followed this person named “Running Away Little Sun,” and the next second, Yin Fu’s system showed that they were mutual follows. It turned out that the other party had already followed him long ago.

[Cy: Send me a copy of the video.]

Running Away Little Sun: !!!!!!……???

What to do, what to do?

Her shipping has been caught by the main person, what should she do?

Video? Send a copy?

This Miss quickly suppressed her surprise at being followed back, as well as the panic in her heart after being discovered by the main person, and forced herself to calm down. She looked at this sentence, repeatedly deliberating over these words.

Finally, her fingers trembled as she typed and sent it out.

[Running Away Little Sun: Boss, I was wrong.]

[Running Away Little Sun: Video]

[Running Away Little Sun: I guarantee that I will immediately delete that video from my homepage. Don’t worry, I won’t post anything about you in the future. It’s my fault that this brought you displeasure, I’m sorry.]

Cheng Yi, having watched the video over and over again to his heart’s content, finally saved the video. Then he looked at the words sent by this netizen, and confusion arose in his heart. What was going on? Wasn’t this video pretty good, why did she want to delete it?

[Cy: Why delete this?]

Did this netizen not like Shen Chang’an anymore?

Did she stop liking him so quickly?

Was she so easily fickle?

Cheng Yi was surprised, then frowned. Would he not be able to see such cute videos of the little fox in the future?

Running Away Little Sun: Ah?

She looked at this sentence, shocked, and then a bold guess rose in her heart.

[Running Away Little Sun: You mean… I can continue to edit like this in the future?]

[Running Away Little Sun: You don’t mind?]

Cheng Yi:?

Mind what?

Did this video have anything to do with him?

Wasn’t this a video about the little fox?

[Cy: Don’t mind.]

Running Away Little Sun: !!!!!!

Everyone, who understands, the main person doesn’t mind her editing this kind of CP video, ahhhhhhh, what does this mean?

Moreover, it looked like the other party also liked this video very much, so could she boldly guess.

Was there a possibility that the CP she shipped might become real?

Although in the livestream and in the video comment section, they always said that the CP they shipped was real, in fact, they themselves knew that these things were just their own self-entertainment. They could only secretly and frantically indulge in shipping in private, and could not bring it in front of the main person to affect their mood.

This madness avoided the sun, always deeply buried in the dark underground. For some homophobes, their intense emotions were like rats that could never see the light of day in a stinky ditch, who could only helplessly entertain themselves in the dark, roaring madly.

This netizen whose username was Running Away Little Sun had been in this circle for many years. She had shipped countless CPs, but they always ended badly with both parties maintaining their distance, no longer interacting. They wandered in the network world, becoming homeless children after the main person personally dispelled the rumors.

This time, she was also unintentionally pushed by the system to Shen Chang’an’s livestream. She was a new fan who had just followed Shen Chang’an last night. She was initially attracted to Shen Chang’an’s appearance, but after watching Shen Chang’an’s historical livestreams, from the moment Cy gave Shen Chang’an a gift to make him sing again, her CP radar went off like crazy.

So she started producing content today.

She had originally prepared to be sneaky, but now you were telling her that one of the two main people didn’t mind them, and even liked these videos very much. She was really excited in her heart, and jumped up from the bed. If she wasn’t afraid of disturbing the neighbors, she really wished she could run to the balcony and shout:

Mom, I’ve shipped a real one!

Standing on the bed, with an excited heart, she quickly typed and sent.

[Running Away Little Sun: Okay! Cy boss, don’t worry, next time I make a video, I will definitely send it to you first]

[Cy: Okay, thank you]

[Running Away Little Sun: You’re welcome, you’re welcome (animated emoji)]

Cheng Yi, having received a satisfactory answer, prepared to return to Shen Chang’an’s livestream. Before leaving, he watched the video again, and from beginning to end he didn’t open the comment section to take a look.

A beautiful misunderstanding thus arose.
