Chapter 236 Arriving at the Event Location
Ye Lan ultimately chose other types of bread. After all, you have to eat steamed buns with pickled vegetables, and the ingredient list only contains flour, so what's the point of eating them?
It's so bad that you could choke to death.
The night passed by in a blur.
The next day, as dawn broke through the sky, it shone on the land of China, casting a golden glow over Shanghai.
In winter, Ye Lan doesn't get up immediately. After waking up, she lies on the bed and scrolls through Douyin (TikTok).
Lin Xueyao was fast asleep beside him, her body curled up like a kitten, her breathing soft and rhythmic, and a trickle of clear water even flowing from the corner of her mouth.
Ye Lan glanced at Lin Xueyao's appearance and couldn't help but laugh. She reached out to wipe the drool from the corner of Lin Xueyao's mouth.
He accidentally touched Lin Xueyao's face.
QQ Bouncy is just like jelly, it's bouncy and bouncy.
Ye Lan, in a playful mood, laughed and poked Lin Xueyao several more times until Lin Xueyao seemed to notice and her brows furrowed slightly before Ye Lan reluctantly moved away.
"Do you have time at noon? Come to the Shanghai Esports City. We need to rehearse the event schedule beforehand."
Ye Lan saw the message from Zhou Ting and simply replied with "Okay".
This large-scale event is not only about the reputation of the Tiger Shark platform, but also closely related to the game "Honor of Kings", so there can be absolutely no mistakes.
Rehearsing beforehand allows the guests to get used to the situation and prevents them from saying the wrong thing on stage.
After all, whether they are streamers or professional players, they are only around 20 years old.
This is the age when people can't hold back their words.
Furthermore, since this event was presented to the public via live stream, if a guest says something wrong, they will definitely be maliciously attacked by others.
To avoid this situation, the organizers came up with the idea of having the guests rehearse in advance.
Ye Lan expressed her understanding of this kind of thing, just like how teachers would give students practice questions before an exam.
He carefully lifted the covers without waking Lin Xueyao, and went into the bathroom alone to wash up.
I brushed my teeth and washed my face, and casually ran my fingers through my hair while my hands were still wet.
"Um, Ye Lan, where are you going?"
Just as Ye Lan was getting dressed and preparing to go out, she heard Lin Xueyao's groggy voice behind her.
Ye Lan zipped up her coat. "Zhou Ting told me to go to the event rehearsal, so I have to go out for a bit."
"Then I'll go with you, wait for me a moment."
Lin Xueyao rubbed her eyes and walked towards the bathroom in a daze.
I turned on the tap and started washing up.
Ye Lan sat on the edge of the bed and waited for a while. In less than fifteen minutes, Lin Xueyao finished tidying up.
She wore a pair of light blue jeans that accentuated her full, peach-like hips. Her upper body was covered by a white long-sleeved top that looked slightly oversized, but because Lin Xueyao had such a great figure, it actually fit her quite well.
Finally, Lin Xueyao gently draped a snow-white shawl over her shoulders, then ran to Ye Lan with small steps, twirling around several times before stopping.
"How do I look? Is my outfit good?"
Lin Xueyao's round, fair face was filled with anticipation and excitement, just like a student who had achieved excellent grades and a child who was trying to get praise from her parents.
"The clothes are so-so, but the person is good-looking."
With Ye Lan's approval, Lin Xueyao's smile grew even brighter. "I originally thought I would never hear sweet words from you."
"Sweet words should only be spoken to the one you love, not to everyone you meet."
..........
When Ye Lan and Lin Xueyao arrived downstairs, Butler Lin had already been waiting for them in a stretched Lincoln for quite some time.
After the two got into the car, they drove towards the Shanghai e-sports city.
The Shanghai Esports City is located in the heart of the city. Esports is currently one of the most popular fields and is loved by young people.
The e-sports city is a pure e-sports themed mall, just like the anime avenue that sells things related to anime.
Here, you can find even the most obscure games.
In addition, there were also beautiful cosplayers attracting the attention of passersby.
Following the address given by Zhou Ting, Ye Lan walked all the way to the center of the mall, where a circular platform the size of a basketball court appeared in front of them.
Behind the platform is a giant plaque with red background and black characters that read "King's New Year Greetings Show" in bold, powerful strokes.
However, judging from the current situation, it will probably take another two or three days for the stage to be completed.
Upon arriving at the scene, Ye Lan quickly spotted several familiar faces.
Zhang Daxian and Lü Dehua.
"Ye Lan, you're amazing. You've only been famous for less than two months and you're already participating in a big event like the New Year's Greeting Show. It makes many veteran anchors look bad."
"Yeah, you almost pushed me off the platform."
Dehua stood beside the master and nodded in agreement.
Ye Lan understood the hidden meaning in Zhang Daxian's words.
His promotion was too rapid, and now he has become a guest at a large-scale event like the New Year's Greeting Show. With great success comes great scrutiny, and Ye Lan has probably already made countless enemies.
The seeds of jealousy took root in the hearts of the anchors who were not selected as guests at the event.
Ye Lan had thought about this before, but she couldn't come up with a solution.
After all, if you're too outstanding, it's inevitable that others will be jealous of you.
"It's all thanks to the fans' love and good luck," Ye Lan replied modestly to their questions.
"But, Master, you look a bit fatter offline than when you're live streaming."
Zhang Daxian wasn't angry. Instead, he smiled and said, "I used a face-slimming filter during my live stream. You know that."
"By the way, why don't I see any other contestants?"
Ye Lan looked around and saw that apart from Zhang Daxian and Lü Dehua, there was no one else around the stage.
"They're all getting their makeup done in the dressing room. Besides rehearsing today, they also need to take some photos of the promotional posters."
Zhang Daxian explained the current situation to Ye Lan.
"Do I have to shoot promotional posters too?" Ye Lan asked, pointing to herself.
Zhang Daxian and Lü Dehua exchanged a glance, and then, in perfect unison, they reached out and placed their hands on Ye Lan's shoulders, one on each side.
Dehua spoke earnestly, "Ye Lan, give the brothers a way out. You're already handsome without makeup, there's no need for you to wear makeup anymore."
Zhang Daxian followed up, "Exactly! You already have a good base, but if you put on makeup, how are guests like Andy Lau, who are not good-looking, supposed to compete?"
Dehua looked at Zhang Daxian with a puzzled expression, his bewildered eyes seeming to say, "You seem to be insulting me, and I have evidence!"
Ye Lan also felt that what the two said made sense. The main reason why he was hated by the other streamers was that he was too outstanding.
The guests who can participate in the New Year's greeting show are all big names in the live streaming and professional circles.
He should have toned it down a bit.
No one else looks as good as Ye Lan even with makeup. If Ye Lan puts on makeup, wouldn't he outshine everyone else?
When people see the promotional poster, they'll know who the main character is.
It's best to avoid doing things that overshadow the main event.
