The Singer Whose Career Was Delayed by PUBG
Everyone gasped!
"Goodness, another new song?"
"Is Ming Shen's songwriting speed really this fast?"
"Ming Shen wrote another song? Sing it for us! I guarantee we'll push it onto Weibo Hot Search!"
"Oh my god, are you not going to let the other streamers live?"
"A singer whose career was delayed by PUBG."
Ignoring the comments, Jiang Siming adjusted the strings again. After a brief preparation, his slender fingers plucked them.
A completely different melody rang out in the Live Stream Room. Unlike "A Horse's Hoofprints," this song had an even more beautiful opening.
It was like a set of chimes ringing in the depths of the soul, its melodious echoes carrying an elegance reminiscent of a piano.
"How do I delete those photos of you?
"How do I stop looking at those messages?
"I can't let go, and I can't go back.
"Perhaps I should just make a decision."
The tender singing lingered beside their ears. Every lyric made them ache a little. This gentle, heart-wrenching pain struck even deeper.
However, the earlier part of the song had not been particularly astonishing, and "A Horse's Hoofprints" had been the same.
That only made everyone look forward to the chorus even more. The chorus of "A Horse's Hoofprints" had made people fall in love with it the moment they heard it.
They wondered whether this new song could have the same charm.
Just as they were thinking this, everyone suddenly felt as if they had pushed open their front door and found a sea of flowers beneath the snowy mountains of Shangri-La. It was breathtakingly beautiful!
"How did I end up going to Paris alone?
"How did I let go of the memories of us?
"Flying ten thousand kilometers,
"Counting the distance between you and me.
"How did I end up going to Paris alone?
"Searching for the places we once talked about.
"Only in the end did I realize
"That I still cared too much."
It was in no way inferior to "A Horse's Hoofprints"! The chorus was incredibly catchy!
Compared to the hysteria and love expressed through roars in "A Horse's Hoofprints,"
this song followed an entirely gentle path.
It was like a devoted gentleman tenderly recounting the past he had shared with his ex-girlfriend.
How did I end up going to Paris alone?
Paris was the place every couple dreamed of visiting. Even Jay Chou's "Love Confession Balloon" had its music video filmed there.
Yet in this song's lyrics, Paris belonged to only one person. How lonely and painful must that be?
"Damn, my tears got tricked out again. Ming Shen, you're too wicked!"
"When you get old, every song makes you sentimental. Sigh."
"I remembered how my girlfriend and I once promised to visit Xinjiang together. Unfortunately, she's gone now. I went to Xinjiang alone last year."
"What a musical genius! Ming Shen, it would be outrageous if you didn't debut!"
"Stop playing professionally and become a singer!"
Even after the song ended, the audience remained immersed in the sorrow it had brought them.
This time, the gifts came even more fiercely. Just like when "A Horse's Hoofprints" had first been released yesterday, the fans showed no hesitation in opening their wallets.
Being able to hear such a beautiful song made spending a little money worthwhile.
Duke Er Ke rewarded Ming's Live Stream Room with 15 Super Rockets!
Duke Er Ke: Ming Shen, your singing is absolutely no worse than any professional singer's. Also, this song is really well written. Could you sing it one more time?~ Looking forward to it!
Duke Sophie rewarded Ming's Live Stream Room with 5 Spaceships!
Duke Sophie: It's super nice! Ming Shen, can I become your little fangirl?
Emperor PDD Who Was About to Have an Adonis Belt rewarded Ming's Live Stream Room with 10 Spaceships!
Emperor PDD Who Was About to Have an Adonis Belt: Bro Ya'er, your singing is way too good! Even my Minmin has become your fan. Take me chicken-dinner hunting sometime if you get the chance!
Emperor Da Ma Hou rewarded Ming's Live Stream Room with 10 Spaceships!
Emperor Da Ma Hou: I came over after my fans recommended "A Horse's Hoofprints" to me today. Young man, you've got an incredibly broad future ahead of you! Do you play Dungeon & Fighter? Your big brother is Server One Berserker—I'll carry you!
Streamers from all over flocked to Jiang Siming's Live Stream Room. Spaceships and rockets were thrown around as if they cost nothing.
This was mainly because the fans had been promoting him so aggressively among one another. Many streamers had come over out of curiosity, intending to take a quick look around before leaving.
But once they entered, they found themselves unable to leave.
That day, the number of people online in Jiang Siming's Live Stream Room surpassed ten million! Its peak popularity climbed all the way to one hundred million!
Compared with those popularity and online-viewer figures, what was more tangible and reliable was Jiang Siming's Live Stream Room level and the number of Fan Badges.
Live Stream Room ID: 99999 Live Stream Room Level: 80 Live Stream Room Fan Badges: 90,570
The crazed number of gifts had pushed Jiang Siming's Live Stream Room past level 80. He only needed twenty more levels to reach the maximum.
Ninety thousand Fan Badges.
At this rate of growth, apart from PDD and Da Ma Hou, there was no one else!
Perhaps only Lu Laoye's return to streaming could surpass Jiang Siming's result.
"Thank you, thank you, everyone. I'll turn these two songs into official versions as soon as possible and release them for free on all the major music platforms. Today's stream ends here. Before I leave, though, I'd still like to perform something for the viewers who can't bear to see me go."
The new viewers were still confused, waiting with curiosity and anticipation.
But when they saw Jiang Siming's screen go black the next second, they all laughed and cursed aloud.
After ending his afternoon stream, Jiang Siming left his bedroom. The aroma of food drifting from the dining table in the living room made his stomach growl.
"Senior brother, are you done? Come eat."
Wang Xinyi emerged from the kitchen, still wearing an apron around her waist.
Jiang Siming went over and pulled Wang Xinyi into his arms. Only after rewarding her with several passionate kisses did he embrace her and sit down at the table with her.
After dinner, Jiang Siming first returned the calls from the various professional teams.
He told them that he could play professionally, but they would have to meet several conditions.
First, he did not want to live at the team base or have anyone interfere with his personal freedom, except during major competitions or training sessions.
Second, training sessions could not last too long. He needed to focus mainly on streaming, and he would request leave in advance whenever special circumstances arose.
Third, he could join a team and play professionally. He did not need to be captain, but they had to reserve one starting position for him.
Many teams frowned when they saw these three conditions. After discussing them, they all gave up.
Only 4AM and 17 Gaming were still considering it.
Jiang Siming was not worried about whether any team would accept his conditions. His skills spoke for themselves.
Right now, the most important thing to him was doing what adults did with Wang Xinyi.
He carried Wang Xinyi out of the bathroom.
Jiang Siming still slept in Wang Xinyi's bedroom. He no longer went to his own room, which had been completely reduced to a place for him to work and stream.
He had only just lain down when Wang Xinyi drifted into sleep. Her exhausted body needed rest to recover.
Jiang Siming, however, was wide awake. He even wanted more, but knowing that his girlfriend had no strength left, he could only endure it and give up.
He took out the chip he had obtained today and played with it. After pondering for a while, he used his mind to write a game onto the chip.
