He found it a little strange. He was a fencer, different from other athletes.
Fencing was a relatively niche sport. Even winning a championship would not cause much of a stir online.
Precisely for that reason.
Lin Xubai thought ordinary people would not know a fencer's name.
[Ragdoll Cat: Of course I've heard of you. You're so handsome! When you competed in the Winter Games last year, weren't your photos all over the internet?]
[Ninety Below Zero: I haven't followed your matches, but I know you're handsome.]
[Bamboo, Don't Cry: Ahem, I started liking Lin Xubai because of his looks too.]
They were all suckers for good looks!
Lin Xubai immediately understood. These people had heard his name because of his looks.
He had not performed particularly well at last year's Winter Games, but he had reached the quarterfinals, breaking a national record that had stood for a long time.
Coupled with his incredible looks, that had made him popular online for a while.
Lin Xubai muttered to himself, "Fine, getting noticed for my looks is a good thing too. At least my looks will gradually get them interested in fencing."
He did not particularly resent it. As long as more people learned about fencing, any means would do.
[Lin Xubai: Thank you for liking me, everyone, but I'm running out of time. My coach will be here in five minutes, and I need to get ready.]
[Lin Xubai: Master, I'll always support you. Thank you for giving me an inside connection for this call, but unfortunately, I really can't do it.]
Lin Xubai felt very apologetic. After all, hundreds of thousands of fans had been competing for this chance to join the call.
Yet it had fallen to him, and he could not even join.
"Cancel it."
