When Anna Thornton first saw Conrad Sterling, she imdiately looked at Mary with a questioning gaze: "Is this the reinforcent you brought?"
Mary shook her head cluelessly, does she have President Sterling in her WeChat contacts?
Definitely not!
The people in the live streaming room were visibly stunned by Conrad Sterling’s unexpected appearance.
But the chat exploded with a screen full of exclamation marks!
[!!! Did I see it wrong? How did the CEO of Sterling Group co here?]
[I heard President Sterling is particularly low-profile, even financial magazines find it hard to get an interview with him, and today he actually ca to the live stream? This ga company must have big connections!]
[So handso!!!!!]
...
Actually, it’s not the ga company that’s influential; Ethan, who ca in behind Conrad Sterling, knows the whole story best.
He was just watching Anna’s live stream and was furious when he found out Wyatt Jagger bailed on her, cursing Wyatt for half an hour passionately like a fan worriedly pacing in circles, desperately wanting to jump in and save the day.
But he hadn’t played the ga before, so he could only subtly inform President Sterling about it.
Ethan thought if President Sterling wanted to help Anna, he might put pressure on Wyatt Jagger.
But he didn’t expect President Sterling would choose to step in personally.
He was also utterly surprised that President Sterling was this good at gaming!
Having been his assistant for so long, Ethan never saw any indication of him practicing.
From the company to here, they found another driver, and Ethan logged into the ga with President Sterling using a laptop.
The ga requires at least two players to team up, so in the previous round, Ethan was the annoying teammate who tead up with Conrad Sterling and got knocked out early.
Right! You want to know why President Sterling appeared in the live room to save the day?
Oh, Sterling Group just acquired this ga company!
The contract was signed five minutes ago!
Yes, Conrad Sterling was signing the contract while playing a ga, which is why he accidentally got hit in the final monts.
But Ethan suspects President Sterling was deliberately holding back because he didn’t want to oppose Anna.
When two people fight alongside each other, it’s bad for either to take down the other, so to maintain Anna’s winning streak, he intentionally let himself be killed.
"Are you the ’Battlefield Doctor’?" Anna couldn’t quite believe it.
Until Conrad Sterling logged into his ga account on a nearby computer right before her eyes, proving that he indeed played gas with Anna.
Imdiately, the chat boiled over with a frenzy of astonishnt and cheers.
President Sterling playing gas? Who would have thought!
It’s not that a dominant CEO can’t play video gas, just that Conrad Sterling doesn’t seem like soone who would waste ti on such pastis.
Yet, his gaplay was skillful as he urged Anna, "Shall we start?"
"Let’s do it!" Anna couldn’t possibly refuse him in front of all the fans and viewers in the live room.
She’s a dedicated perforr, and today’s advertising results aren’t t yet; there’s a clear line between work and personal issues.
Anna plays gas in a bold and aggressive style, charging straight on.
To complent her, Conrad Sterling chose a support role in this ga.
The two had never played gas together before, but their teamwork was unexpectedly harmonious, the kind that requires no communication.
Fortunately, their combined prowess was explosive in the ga, so there was no need to speak to keep the live room lively.
In this round, they encountered the four players who previously hunted Anna again.
Anna firmly believed they were targeting her, and the opponents took it seriously this ti, relentlessly pursuing her victory. After all, they wanted to restore their e-sports honor, proving their earlier mistake was just a montary lapse.
But really, are these two just amateur players?
You must be kidding!
Anna plays the ga fiercely and quickly, without fear of death. Amid the intense battle between the two sides, she opted to use her dwindling health skill to take down the strongest offensive opponent.
Leaving President Sterling to face three opponents alone.
And the most shocking part was Conrad Sterling!
What did he do?
Clearly holding a support role, with little attack power, the ultimate skill could only drain half-health of an enemy at best, yet the opponents thought they were sure to win. But President Sterling used the skill and relied on his agile movents to charge into the enemy camp, taking out three weakened foes.
???
The four e-sports players opposite!
Never witnessed such a maneuver!
They, as professionals, had never seen it, let alone the bewildered audience watching the fun in the live room.
When Anna ’fell’ earlier, many fans clutched their hearts, afraid to keep watching.
Unexpectedly, the tables turned, with President Sterling playing a support role yet taking down the enemy.
He not only defeated them but also pulled out his stockpile of resurrection pills for his teammate.
Anna wasn’t overly surprised; it was like she knew she’d be revived, her fingers never left the keyboard.
Revived, she swiftly hit the keyboard and continued to fight, while Conrad Sterling quietly followed.
These two were one dare to die, one dare to save.
At so point, the chat unified once again, with just two words—aweso!
How could it not be aweso?
They took on professional e-sports players in a two versus four battle and completely outmaneuvered the opponents.
If the opponents were dissatisfied with the previous round, this round surely turned them over.
With Conrad Sterling’s skills and speed, those unfamiliar with e-sports might only exclaim aweso.
But for those in the know, who wouldn’t say, ’damn aweso’?!
The scene where he faced three opponents single-handedly earlier could be recorded in history, it was that aweso.
The four knocked-down players initially thought they encountered top-level experts, but a search revealed they were Anna and Conrad Sterling on the live stream.
Took a deep breath and couldn’t help but sneak a line on the chat: "President Sterling, with your speed... Cathayan e-sports needs you!"
It turned into a , trending that night.
With Conrad Sterling’s appearance, the popularity of the live room continued to rise, with four related trending searches at the sa ti.
anwhile, Florian Hollis ca to save the day, already outside the door.
But before he pushed the door open, his agent blocked him, and Kevin Jacobs saw President Sterling himself in the live room and dared not enter.
Blocking outside with Florian Hollis was also Felix Preston, who hurried over to save the scene. Having previously acted in a film with Anna, among the seven male leads, he’s had the best developnt aside from Florian Hollis.
A single film, a single opportunity, pushed Felix Preston from an unknown actor from the eighteenth tier to his current position in the second tier.
This year, Felix Preston’s schedule is packed with movie offers; he’s been busy filming recently and is expected to reach first tier next year.
Mary mass-sent WeChat ssages for aid, with the seven male leads seeing the ssage one after another, available ones rushing over. Originally, Felix Preston wasn’t among those available; he was attending a popular variety show recording.
It was a long-established variety show with wide audience reach, a rare chance to expand his national popularity, and the agent struggled to secure for him.
But Felix Preston surprisingly proposed to end the recording early, earning a stern reprimand from his agent, afraid the program crew might cut all his cara footage.
Felix Preston didn’t care, for there’s sothing more important to him.
Although Felix wasn’t good at gaming, this was a rare chance to get closer to Anna after filming the movie!
He hurriedly tried to make it, yet he was still a step behind.
Standing at the live room door, Felix Preston curled his lips in self-mockery.
During the movie, Anna’s impression on him was that everyone could get along well, but there was no chance between them.
Felix Preston didn’t accept it; he knew Anna had a bright future, so he worked hard to develop himself better too.
However, now it seems there’s still no chance!
