Chapter 213 Small Changes

"No... Sister Rui, why don't you lose to someone else? Why do you have to lose to someone as loudmouthed as Gao Yang?"

Five minutes later, Yang Manjing returned to the competition area from the hotel lobby with a distorted expression.

"This, this, this is the one I was assigned to in the initial match..."

Faced with Yang Manjing's ruthless questioning, Rui Zhao felt a little aggrieved.

In this situation, she seemed to be the younger one.

The petite and flat girl couldn't help but stamp her feet and said, "Then don't lose to him!"

Rui Zhao felt even more aggrieved after hearing this: "Of course I don't want to lose! But I really didn't play well today..."

"I……"

The little witch wanted to continue questioning, but Rui Zhao's two answers were really no problem, so she had no choice but to change her words and complain:

“You’re really going to piss me off to death!

"I was just saying in my fan group a few days ago that I'm definitely no worse than you, but now I look like a clown!
"Sister Rui, you are now a person of some status, don't you understand? You have to pay attention to your influence! Aren't you afraid of getting into trouble if you lose to Gao Dazui?"

Hearing this, Cheng Yuyang felt that there seemed to be something fishy going on and couldn't help but ask:
"Uh, this Gao Yang, second dan...does he have anything to say?"

Cheng Yuyang had just entered the professional game and was not familiar with the situation. However, Yang Manjing, who had been in the middle and low ranks for several years, had a say in this matter:

“That’s a really big statement!
"This tall and big mouth, 22 years old this year, is just this level of skill, but he is a master at talking. He keeps saying every day that he is very talented and that he is not appreciated for his talent, and that he has not met any top chess players to take him as a student. He is full of complaints, and once he wins, others like to criticize him afterwards.

"I'm really impressed. Go is a very pure game. The truth is revealed in the game. The strong are strong and the weak are weak. Lin Ruixin may be annoying, but he also learned by himself without a famous teacher! How can he be said to be 'unappreciated'? That's why most players don't like him.

"Originally, he only beats low-ranking players, so his bragging and slander won't attract much attention. But you've lost to him now!"

After saying this, Cheng Yuyang already understood the situation and frowned in worry.

But Rui Zhao on the side was still somewhat confused:
"Just... is there anything you can't lose? I don't care if you just say a few words of criticism."

At this time, Yang Manjing was already numb to the silly reaction of this elder sister Rui, so he could only force himself to be patient and said:

"Do you know that there are a lot of reporters waiting in the hotel lobby right now who have rushed over after hearing that you are really coming to participate in the competition?
"After Gao Dazui defeated you, he quickly ran to the lobby to be interviewed by the media, and kept bragging about how great he was. How come you are just so-so, and he hasn't finished bragging yet!"

“Is that so?”

Rui Zhao agreed carefully, but his tone was completely indifferent:
"Well, let him talk. I don't care! Anyway...reputation doesn't affect one's chess ability."

"..."

Yang Manjing rolled her eyes when she heard this.

Although she had watched some of Rui Zhao's live broadcast clips before, she had already vaguely felt that this Sister Rui seemed to be a bit natural.

But he never expected that he would be so stupid.

At this point, the originally aggressive little witch's tone became helpless:

“Big sister…even if you don’t pay attention to them yourself, you should at least think about your fans!

"You know, there's been a lot of noise online these past two days!"

"Ah?" Rui Zhao blinked and asked, "What are you arguing about?"

Hearing this rhetorical question, Yang Manjing looked at Rui Zhao with an increasingly stiff gaze:
"No...you don't know?"

Rui Zhao shook his head blankly.

The little witch almost couldn't hold back her expression. She was about to complain, but then she thought that the other party had probably just been discharged from the hospital, so it was understandable that he didn't have time to care about her. So she sighed and said:
“After your match with the Ice Queen, although the mainstream media spoke highly of you, there was still a lot of controversy in various forums and communities.

"Your fans naturally think that you must be very powerful to be able to go to such an extent with the current number one female player, and they have been helping you fight back on the forum against the slander against you when you were given a wild card.

"But you also know that the person you are messing with is Lin Ruixin! How many fans does he have as a big internet celebrity?
"As the saying goes, a thousand words can melt gold, especially when you lost the game you should have won. People who don't like you will use you and your mistake to criticize you, saying that people who make such mistakes are not worthy of being called professional chess players and that they just had the chance to win because the queen was not in good shape. The two sides have been arguing fiercely online these past two days.

"And at such a crucial moment when the quarrel was getting heated, you actually lost to Gao Dazui, a rookie who likes to pull others down. Isn't this just handing a knife to the opponent? Even if you say that your body has not recovered and you give up the competition!"

Having said that, Rui Zhao finally understood the situation.

To be honest, the girl doesn't care about it at all.

Even in her opinion, this meaningless verbal dispute was a complete waste of everyone's extremely precious time.

But... the girl thought about it and felt that she couldn't just ignore this matter.

To be honest, she originally did the live broadcast with the mentality of completing a task and was quite perfunctory.

But when Rui Zhao saw two WeChat messages of greeting the day before yesterday, her heart was touched.

Those two WeChat messages came from the “fish” that the original owner had previously raised: Li Jingzhe.

According to Rui Zhao, even though he had paid off the debt, the original owner had done such an excessive thing to Li Jingzhe that the other party should not be willing to take the initiative to care about him again - Huang Baoyang was entrusted by someone else that time, so it did not count.

But now, he, who has just started learning Go, is actually watching his own live broadcast! He even said that he is willing to watch his next game!

What does this mean?
This shows that his live broadcast is really attracting people outside the circle and beginners to gain a deeper understanding of Go!

At this moment, Rui Zhao seemed to begin to understand why Shang Chaotian kept insisting on asking her to continue the live broadcast that night.

It seems...it can really help.

If it really works... things like Bai Yinhua's will never happen again, right? Everyone... should be able to happily and wholeheartedly study, train, and compete...

"…Um, Rui Zhao? What are you thinking about?"

Seeing that Rui Zhao seemed to be distracted, the little witch couldn't help but remind him.

"Ah? Ah! Nothing!"

The girl came to her senses and quickly replied:
"That's right...I, I understand. I will apologize to the fans. Thank you, Man Jing!"

"Man, Man Jing?!"

The little witch never expected that the other party would suddenly call her like this:

"Who, who allowed you to call me so intimately?"

"Ah! S-Sorry!"

Seeing Yang Manjing's intense reaction, Rui Zhao quickly apologized.

"…I just think you're cute, so this is more approachable."

"Cute?"

The little witch was even more confused now. She hesitated for a long time before saying:

"Being cute doesn't mean you're that intimate! And this is the first time we've talked to each other in real life, right?"

"Uh... yeah, sorry. I'll just call you by your full name from now on."

"Hmm... that's all..."

The petite girl's cheeks flushed slightly.

"…By the way, if you don't want to be surrounded by reporters and asked about your loss when you leave, you can ask the hotel staff where the back door used by the staff is to sneak out. There is usually one. I have experience with this."

"Ah! I really didn't expect you didn't remind me! Thank you!"

The girl gave a silly smile.

"nothing……"

Yang Manjing muttered softly:

"Well...if you want to leave, hurry up. Otherwise, if you don't come out for too long, people will probably suspect that you took the back door..."

"Oh, ok, thank you!"

After thanking him again, Rui Zhao said goodbye to Yang Manjing and immediately prepared to ask the staff.

But before leaving, Yang Manjing suddenly called her:
"……and many more!"

"Hmm? Anything else, Man... uh, Yang Manjing?"

The little witch hesitated for a while, and then said:

“Just…don’t worry about your last mistake in the last game.

"I also made similar stupid mistakes when I was just promoted, but I didn't get as much attention as you..."

Rui Zhao didn't seem to expect that the other party would suddenly say this to her, but facing the kindness of others, the girl always sincerely thanked:
"Well, thank you! Man Jing! You are so nice!"

"I told you not to..."

The little witch was about to retort, but Rui Zhao had already hurried off to find the staff, leaving the little witch standing there with a confused expression on her face:

“…Forget it, if she insists on shouting like that, then let her shout like that!
"After all, the mouth is on her body..."

...

...

Ten minutes later, under the account of [Go Xiaozhao] on Bilibili.

A newly updated video appears in the list.

Female anchor Rui Zhao, who had not appeared on camera for a long time and was supposed to be recuperating in the hospital, appeared in the center of the video without any warning and greeted her fans.

This video is not long, only half a minute in total, and the shooting is very crude.

It can also be seen that the girl seems to be moving back and forth in the alleys of a large building, causing the camera to shake constantly.

However, the girl's voice was still full of positivity, like bright sunshine:

"Um, hello everyone! Long time no see, I'm Xiao Zhao!

"Today I came to Bianzhou City to participate in the national team competition preliminaries, but unfortunately, I lost in the first round and failed to live up to everyone's expectations. I'm so sorry!
“I will practice harder in the future, improve my skills, and bring you more exciting games and commentary!
"Also, I think people don't need to pay too much attention to some of the online debates, and don't need to spend time on them. I don't really watch them, and they don't affect me!
"As long as everyone is willing to continue to support me and continue to learn about Go!"

Well, I still need to lay out some settings for this volume first.

Also, I would like to explain to the big guys that it was predetermined that Kaijuan would lose to the role of Big Mouth Supporting Role when he was in a bad state.

On the one hand, it is for the subsequent emotional tug-of-war, and on the other hand, it is also to balance the two previous extraordinary performances in the Wu Yue Cup. We can't always perform exceptionally in a single game.
