From Sidekick to Bigshot

Although Jian Yiling’s words were soft, she still gave Hu Jiaojiao a great sense of security.

Every time she said “I will handle it,” Hu Jiaojiao felt incredibly reassured.

Jian Yiling went online to compete against the video game streamer at the agreed time.

The streamer’s ID was [Fight Anyone Who is Unconvinced]. The nickname that was given to him by his fans was [Fighting Brother].

Then, she asked the male streamer whether she could replace An Yang in the match.

Upon hearing this, the male video game streamer was overjoyed.

At first, he assumed that she was using a voice changer.

“Brother, could you turn off your voice changer? I don’t mind that you’re getting someone else to play the match for you. Either way, I’m skilled. I won’t be scared of anyone. However, your voice changer is a bit too much! Are you pretending to be a cute girl? Are you planning to cry after you lose?”

“It’s my voice,” Jian Yiling replied.

However, the viewers were not convinced by this.

“Well, please open your video camera then. I want to see whether you’re telling the truth.”

“Okay,” Jian Yiling replied.

And thus, Jian Yiling opened her video camera. She entered a video call with the streamer.

As soon as she did that, the entire comment section blew up.

[Oh my god, it’s actually a cute girl!]

[The super-duper cute type as well!]

[Even if the stream is retouched to beautify her face, she’s still really pretty!]

[Yeah, she’s definitely a cute girl!]

[At most, she might not be as cute in real life.]

“Oh, you’re actually a girl!” the male streamer commented with a smile. “My viewers are stunned.”

“Can we start the match?” Jian Yiling asked.

She did not have much patience.

“Hey, don’t be impatient. Let me confirm the situation with you. Are you a substitute for that coward? That coward said a lot of bad things about me. However, when it’s time for the actual match, it seems as though he’s too scared to come. And so, he asks a cute girl to play the match for him?”

“He’s injured,” Jian Yiling said again.

“Ahh, what a coincidence. He’s injured just in time for the match. If he’s too scared to verse me, he can just say so. I won’t ask him to apologize to me. I don’t want him to be too embarrassed.”

As soon as the male streamer said this, his viewers started commenting things as well:

[Yeah, what a coward! Why is he trying to find excuses?]

[Is his hand injured? It should be his brain that’s injured!]

[Well, if he wants to find someone to play the match for him, shouldn’t he get someone who is good at the game? Why did he look for a cute girl?]

[Do you think it’s easy to win against Fighting Brother? He would have to at least find a professional player to play this match! However, no professional player would be interested in playing a game for a coward like him!]

[Well, if he finds a cute girl to play the match for him, he has an excuse if he loses! He would just say that Fighting Brother won because of an unfair advantage.]

[Destroy her! There’s no need to go easy on her!]

“Is there a problem?” Jian Yiling asked.

Wow, this little girl had quite a temper!

The male streamer laughed when he heard this: “Not a problem at all. However, please don’t cry when you lose. I’m famous for not showing mercy.”

“Mhmm.”

As the male streamer had warned her in advance, he felt that he had done his job.

He didn’t know what An Yang was thinking. Why would he ask such a girl to substitute for him?

Of course, the male streamer knew that An Yang’s injury was the truth.

He had gotten someone to fracture An Yang’s hand.

This was because he discovered An Yang’s account. An Yang had decent stats in a rather competitive region. If he were to verse him, he could potentially lose.
