Ye Lan then played a few more rounds with Lin Xueyao.
To be fair, this live stream was incredibly effective; at the very least, its popularity was outrageous.
The number of online viewers remained above 50, and in the end, Ye Lan was reluctant to end the broadcast.
After all, with that kind of popularity, the advertising revenue alone could make him rich.
What's even funnier is that when Ye Lan reads the advertising slogans, Lin Xueyao will also read them along.
It's like advertising for Ye Lan.
"Brother, I have something to do, so I'll log off now. Let's meet again next time!"
They played until 8 p.m., and only stopped when their own accounts triggered the anti-addiction system.
"Okay, I should go end the stream and have dinner now. I'll play again another day."
With Lin Xueyao's departure, the live stream's popularity plummeted, and Ye Lan sighed helplessly.
Fans who came because of Lin Xueyao are destined not to stay for him.
However, Ye Lan was not discouraged, since most people online believed that Lin Xueyao was pursuing him.
In other words, Lin Xueyao's fans will also support Ye Lan.
Ye Lan turned off her computer and ended the broadcast.
"Holy crap, Ye Lan, what did you do? Your New Year's greeting performance has jumped to number one!!!"
Ding dong.
Zhou Ting sent a message, and even though the words were cold and emotionless, they seemed to have a voice at that moment.
Shock, astonishment, disbelief...
After all, the original number one was Zhang Daxian, who had tens of millions of fans across the internet.
It's truly unbelievable that he's now been surpassed by Ye Lan, a rising star.
Of course, Ye Lan didn't believe it either. He immediately opened the voting link to check the rankings.
He discovered that he was actually leading Zhang Daxian by 20,000 votes and leaving the fifth-place candidate by 100,000 votes.
At this point, the data is basically stable.
Moreover, this voting process is very strict; only accounts with real-name authentication can participate, making it relatively fair and just, and there's no way to rig the votes.
"Although the current lead in votes is not much, there are only five days left until the deadline, so the top five positions are definitely secured."
Thinking of this, Ye Lan couldn't help but smile.
In less than two months, he had transformed from an unknown streamer into someone with the ability to stand on equal footing with the big streamers.
Such a dramatic shift in identity is simply wonderful.
boom.
Suddenly a muffled thud was heard. Ye Lan closed her eyes, her expression pained, and rubbed her head in agony.
"Ye Wanying, are you out of your mind to murder your own brother?"
Ye Lan rubbed her head, her brows furrowed as she stared at the exam paper that Ye Wanying had rolled into a stick in her hand.
Just now, this little girl used this thing to hit Ye Lan on the head.
It really hurts when you don't say it.
If they were to switch answer sheets, I reckon the person would have left.
Ye Wanying bent over slightly, staring at Ye Lan warily, as if she were looking at a murderer.
“I don’t care who you are, get off my brother.”
"Get down my ass! Is the food ready yet? I'm starving!"
Hearing the familiar tone and voice, Ye Wanying returned to normal, her expression becoming much more obedient.
"I came over to call you for dinner, but what were you laughing at just now, bro? You were so cheeky, I thought you were possessed by some evil spirit."
"Does it still hurt?"
As Ye Wanying spoke, she stood on tiptoe and gently rubbed Ye Lan's head.
"Go away, you have no manners! You even touched your brother's head!" Ye Lan dodged away in disgust and casually ruffled Ye Wanying's bangs.
........
During dinner, Ye Lan told Ye Wanying about how she had topped the popularity chart for live streamers.
"Really? Does that mean we can go to Shanghai for free for more than ten days?" Ye Wanying's eyes lit up with anticipation.
For events of this caliber, arrangements will be made for the guests' travel and accommodation needs.
It can basically be considered a publicly funded trip.
"Yes, the deadline is the 15th, and we should receive a notification around the 20th." Ye Lan nodded, a smile also on his face.
Life is getting better and better, and there is more and more hope for the future.
"But I have a monthly exam in the 20s, what should I do?"
Ye Wanying suddenly frowned, looking annoyed, and kept poking at the white rice in her bowl with her chopsticks.
This is how it is for senior high school students. In addition to memorizing, listening to lectures, and memorizing knowledge points every day, they also have to deal with exams every now and then.
There are small tests every three days and big tests every five days, and this monthly test is also a way to check whether the students have digested the teaching progress of the past month.
After all, most of the time in the senior year of high school is spent reviewing the knowledge from the previous two years. It is necessary to have a special exam every month in a cyclical and gradual manner.
It can provide timely feedback on students' mastery of the knowledge points at this stage.
"Oh, it's no big deal. You have such good grades anyway, missing one exam won't affect anything."
"Besides, weekly and monthly tests are all meaningless; only a good performance on the final college entrance exam will determine your fate."
"That's true." Ye Wanying nodded thoughtfully.
Ye Lan is like that; she always does terribly in weekly and monthly tests, consistently ranking at the bottom of the class.
However, in her last college entrance exam, her score actually reached the middle of the class. At the time, many people did not believe it and thought that Ye Lan might have cheated or plagiarized.
But that's the college entrance exam, so its strictness goes without saying.
Forget cheating, even copying is difficult. If you raise your head or move your neck slightly, you will attract the attention of the proctor.
"But what about my homework those days?" Ye Wanying was still worried.
Having been told from a young age that the college entrance examination was very important, she has always put her studies first.
"It's quite popular to adjust work schedules these days, so you can move your winter break here and have some fun now, then you can focus on studying later."
"That makes sense, brother. You're so smart!" Ye Wanying clapped her hands happily with an expression of admiration.
Ye Lan rested one hand on the back of the chair, crossed her legs, and struck a rather unrestrained pose.
"Of course, that's why I say I'm your brother!"
"I'll study hard these next few days, and I also need to make the most of my time to stream and gain popularity. Although I've reached the top spot on the popularity chart, I don't think those people will give up so easily."
"We should be sprinting ahead."
This vote is like a long-distance race. Some people start fast, but they lack stamina and gradually fall behind.
Some people start slowly but become incredibly strong later on. They may remain silent until they make a stunning debut and even surge into the top five.
What Ye Lan needs to do now is defend her title.
Maintain your position in the top five.
Time passed day by day, and soon it was 24:00 on December 15th.
Voting has closed.
Ye Lan finished third, and as expected, the top two were Zhang Daxian and Lü Dehua.
"As expected, there is still a gap between us and these old monsters with historical sects and profound backgrounds."
Ye Lan sighed, but he wasn't discouraged. After all, what did it matter if he came in third place?
At least they made it into the top five.
This is the same principle as college students taking exams.
A score of 100 and a score of 60 are the same result.
