Players could nominate a couple (Note 1), and then everyone could vote for them.
These people were usually celebrities in the gaming circle. Some of them were really close and seemed to be very close, while some of them only had a few normal interactions, and some of them didn't even know each other at all. These couples didn't just have their names linked together, there were also fanfictions written about them. They were very popular in the general section and gossip section of the official forum.
Lu Li almost never paid attention to these kinds of posts.
The reason for his interest was because of his sister. Lu Xin had read this story like it was a novel and was fascinated by it. Lu Li seriously suspected that she was involved in writing similar articles, but he hadn't found any concrete evidence yet.
Once, Lu Xin came over with this post and asked about the things in it.
She was very curious about whether Immortal and Elevenless really loved each other. As for why she asked Lu Li, of course, it was because she felt that Lu Li might be familiar with them. After all, they were all professional gamers.
Of course, Lu Li didn't know any secrets. Based on his personality, even if there were secrets, he wouldn't care.
At that time, he glanced at the post and found out that he was also being gossiped about.
How could this kind of post be without the adulterous couple?
Not only was there an adulterous couple, but they were also a very popular couple. There were all kinds of news about him and Water Fairy in the gossip section, and there were also many fanfictions. Lu Li casually read two of them and was defeated. At first, the style was quite normal, even though it was made up. Later on, it started to go the route of pornography.
During those days, he felt very uncomfortable when he saw Water Fairy. He didn't know what to do with his hands and feet.
"Yes, I've seen it," Lu Li admitted.
"Since you've seen it, then it's much easier," the customer service staff sighed in relief. "Here's why I'm here. We hope that when the couple system appears next Monday, the two of you can participate in this event and become the first in-game couple in the game."
The main thing was that Lu Li didn't seem like the kind of person who would pay attention to this kind of gossip. Since he was interested in this kind of gossip, it wouldn't be a problem to convince him.
"I'm sorry, but I think I'll pass." To the customer service's surprise, Lu Li immediately refused without any hesitation.
"Mr. Lu, don't be in such a hurry to refuse. This will easily bring you popularity. It's much faster than competing in competitions." Customer Service 316 was a little anxious. He couldn't think of a reason why Lu Li would refuse such a thing that would increase his reputation and popularity. Moreover, their project team had held a meeting before they came to discuss how to convince Lu Li.
Some people believed that Lu Li and Water Fairy were not completely unrelated like some couples.
At the very least, they had an ambiguous relationship, and the conclusion of the discussion indicated that it was very likely that Lu Li had feelings for Water Fairy, but because of the difference in status, he simply could not pursue a goddess like Water Fairy.
If Lu Li agreed to this matter and officially listed them as a couple in the couple system, it would be beneficial for him to pursue Water Fairy.
"I'm sorry, I don't have any pursuit of popularity." Lu Li still shook his head and refused. "And, no matter what, I don't want to show my life in a public form. Whether it's virtual or real, marriage is a very serious matter. It's not a child's play."
Impenetrable!
"I think Mr. Lu might have some misunderstandings. Our marriage system has two types. One is love, which describes an ambiguous relationship between a man and a woman. The other is marriage, which is an advanced version of love. Our official advertisement is mainly about love, which has nothing to do with marriage..." Lu Yanchen was a little surprised by Lu Yanchen's reaction. "Mr. Lu, I think you might have misunderstood something. Our marriage system has two types: love, which describes an ambiguous relationship between a man and a woman.
After a long explanation, Lu Li looked at him with a smile from beginning to end, clearly not interested.
As someone who had experienced rebirth, of course, Lu Li knew what the couple system was all about. Love could be seen as a confirmed relationship between a man and a woman. The two parties would play a game together, and when their intimacy reached a certain level, the marriage mission would be triggered.
As for the "ambiguous relationship between a man and a woman" that the customer service staff mentioned, in fact, in the future, it would not only be an ambiguous relationship between a man and a woman. Under the request of the majority of players, even two girls could play love together.
Customer Service 316 went offline and returned to the company's conference room. There were seven or eight people sitting inside, all waiting for the results of their meeting.
Customer Service 315, who was responsible for communicating with Water Fairy, was already there.
The two customer service staff didn't look too good, so the atmosphere was a little gloomy.
"Xiao Liu, tell them first." The supervisor let the employee with the surname Liu, who was using Customer Service 315, report first. At least from Employee Liu's expression, there was still some hope.
"I entered the game and contacted Miss Shen. Because we've worked together before (Water Fairy is the ambassador of the Night Elves in the game), Miss Shen was very polite. However, when I asked her to become a couple with Lu Li in the game, she immediately rejected it," Employee Liu said dejectedly.
"What about you?" The supervisor asked the other employee.
Customer Service 316 sighed, "Basically the same. They're obviously not interested in increasing their popularity."
"Didn't you say that Lu Li was chasing after Water Fairy? Why would Lu Li reject such an opportunity to get close to Water Fairy? Is there something wrong with your information?" The supervisor frowned. He couldn't even handle such a small matter properly.
"Ahem, that's what I heard," the employee who said that Lu Li was chasing after Water Fairy quickly said.
"I heard that you're on the next layoff list," the supervisor joked coldly.
Although he knew that the supervisor was joking, he couldn't help but shiver when he heard that. Since the emergence of Dawnlight, other game companies started to go downhill. Some closed down, and some laid off people. There were a lot of talented people in the industry. The old employees of Dawnlight felt insecure. They were really afraid that the company would lay off people to make room for more talented people.
"What do we do now? Consider other couples?" someone asked.
"The popularity gap is too big. Look at that post. The number of votes for this couple is five times the number of votes for the second place. Our backstage monitoring shows that the votes for the second place are f * cking manipulated," someone immediately rejected the suggestion.
If the popularity gap wasn't too big, the officials could just give a random explanation.
The problem was that the couple was the focus of attention on both the forum and the game. They could either not do this official event to promote them as a couple, or they could only choose the couple as a couple. Otherwise, they would only become a laughing stock. The players wouldn't care how much effort the game company had put into it.
"Let me see the situation of your meeting," the supervisor said.
Under normal circumstances, when customer service employees entered the game, they had to record their every move. Therefore, it was easy for the two customer service employees to find the situation of their conversation with the target mission.
