The Streamer's Allure: Top Fans Vying for Her Affection - Chapter 107
Chapter 107
After today’s livestream ended, Jiang Zhouzhou received a notice about the Guild Competition from her Guild Operator.
SY Cherry: “The benefits for this Guild Competition are huge. I recommend you sign up. If you’re sure, I’ll register you.”
Jiang Zhouzhou didn’t reply right away. Instead, she opened the prize system for this Guild Competition and took a look.
First place: 1,000,000 yuan in prize money, SSS traffic support
Second place: 800,000 yuan in prize money, SSS traffic support
Third place: 500,000 yuan in prize money, SSS traffic support
Fourth to seventh place: 300,000 yuan in prize money, SS traffic support
Eighth to tenth place: 100,000 yuan in prize money, S traffic support
Lucky Participation Award: 10 winners, 50,000 yuan in prize money, S traffic support
After reading it, Jiang Zhouzhou couldn’t help sighing in amazement. As expected of the third-ranked major Guild on Shark-how ridiculously generous!
Even Shark’s Annual Competition didn’t offer prize money this lavish.
Jiang Zhouzhou replied to her dedicated Operator: “Okay. Please sign me up.”
SY Cherry: “Sure, sure.”
SY Cherry: “Oh, right. The Guild has arranged an apartment for you. Would you like to move in?”
Jiang Zhouzhou froze when she saw that message. “An apartment?”
She didn’t remember the contract mentioning a benefit like that.
However…
She really had been planning to move.
Back when she was trying to save money, she’d rented a place in a remote, old residential complex in the old district. Although it was close to the subway station, it still wasn’t very convenient overall.
SY Cherry: “Yes. Don’t worry, it’s a private apartment. It’s a special benefit the Guild offers top streamers.”
As if worried Jiang Zhouzhou would refuse, the person on the other end typed very quickly.
SY Cherry: “The Guild headquarters happens to be in Haishi too, so we can arrange something close by for you.”
Rent in Haishi was notoriously expensive. Rent near the city center was even higher than a mortgage in a third-tier city.
Jiang Zhouzhou hesitated. “But I’m planning to get a cat. Are pets allowed in the apartment?”
SY Cherry: “Of course. If there’s any damage to the furniture, the Guild will take care of it. You just need to move in with peace of mind.”
Jiang Zhouzhou: “Then I’ll think about it first and give you an answer once I’ve decided.”
SY Cherry: “Okay.”
After ending the chat with Jiang Zhouzhou, the young lady Operator let out a long breath.
The Guild had never provided housing as a benefit for streamers before. She had no idea why the boss had suddenly arranged it today.
Judging from his tone, he was demanding that the other party agree.
Still, the prize money for this Guild Competition really was outrageous. Who knew who would end up taking it home in the end?
While it was still light out, Jiang Zhouzhou took cat food and canned food downstairs to feed the cat.
After this period of regular Feeding, the White Cat had gradually begun to trust her.
“I’m planning to move. Do you want to leave with me?”
She reached out and lowered her eyes to look at the White Cat hiding in the greenery.
Its fur was filthy, and its sapphire-blue eyes were still full of wariness.
“As long as you come with me, you’ll have endless dried fish and canned food from now on!”
Jiang Zhouzhou took out a can of cat food and continued to tempt it.
The moment the White Cat saw the can, its gaze changed. It walked out of the greenery on its own and rubbed against Jiang Zhouzhou’s calf.
Jiang Zhouzhou was instantly overwhelmed by the honor. She bent down and carefully stroked its head. The White Cat didn’t resist. It even started purring, its fluffy chin pressed against Jiang Zhouzhou’s palm.
“Looks like you’ve agreed to come with me! Then… how about I call you Tangyuan from now on?”
Her own name was plain, tasteless white congee, but Tangyuan was different. She wanted its whole life to be sweet.
Kittens couldn’t speak, but they could express their affection with a soft “meow.”
On this day, a wandering kitten found a home, and a lonely person found companionship.
Jiang Zhouzhou took Tangyuan to a nearby pet hospital for a checkup, and while she was at it, she snapped a few photos and posted them to her Moments.

Comments quickly flooded in below.
Lin Wujing: [So cute, just as cute as my wife]
Zhou Xian: [Streamer, would you consider raising a large dog? You know what I mean]
Brother Cockroach: [Hugs. I mean the cat, not the owner]
Xiaomi Congee: [You really did pick up Tom’s dream girl cat this time]
Dian: [I woke up and the sky had fallen]
Who could have imagined that the moment he opened Shark, he would see an edited clip of her confessing to someone?
He was gritting his teeth, grinding them, envious and jealous.
His heart felt sour, and he wanted to wipe out everyone equally.
Jiang Zhouzhou was just about to reply to everyone when she saw Dian’s comment. The corners of her lips curved up almost unconsciously.
She opened her WeChat chat with him and pressed the voice-message button.
Her soft, cottony voice was recorded and sent successfully.
“Little Brother Dian, listen carefully! There are 365 days in a year, but I only like you for three days: yesterday, today, and tomorrow.”
When Dian received the voice message, that soft, sweet voice fell into his ears, and his heart clenched hard. It was as if something had exploded right where his heart was. He pressed a hand to his chest and couldn’t calm the pounding for a long time.
His fingertip tapped the voice message, playing it again and again.
He clearly couldn’t see her face, yet her features appeared so vividly in his mind.
Her eyes and brows, her face, the faint curve of her lips…
It seemed like…
He liked her a lot, too!
After Jiang Zhouzhou bought the pet supplies she needed, she returned to her rented apartment.
On WeChat, she received a message from Brother Cockroach.
Brother Cockroach: [I’ll arrive in Haishi tomorrow night]
Jiang Zhouzhou bit her lip, unable to put her current feelings into words.
There was a faint sense of anticipation, and a little bit of fear.
Jiang Zhouzhou: [Then I’ll come pick you up]
Brother Cockroach: [No need. My flight lands pretty late, so I’ll go to the hotel first. Are you free the day after tomorrow?]
Jiang Zhouzhou: [Yes, yes]
On the other side of the phone, Yin Yue saw Jiang Zhouzhou’s reply and curved his lips.
He thought that a sudden meeting would definitely frighten the girl on the other end.
But he truly didn’t want to wait anymore. Especially after learning she had met other men, that faint, sour swelling feeling had grown from something insignificant until it spread through his limbs and bones.
He, who had never fallen for anyone before, seemed to have suddenly touched some kind of switch. His feelings came so fiercely that even he himself had been caught off guard.
By the time he realized it, it was already too late.
Brother Cockroach: [Then let’s meet at 11 a.m. the day after tomorrow]
After ending her chat with Brother Cockroach, Jiang Zhouzhou remained in a daze.
Her mind kept imagining what would happen when they met for the first time, picturing what kind of person he might be…
He had sent her so many gifts. What if he made some excessive request?
And so that night, for once, she had insomnia.
By daybreak, she had thick dark circles under her eyes, her gaze unfocused and dull.
It was Tangyuan’s first time in an unfamiliar environment. After a night of getting used to the place, it excitedly parkoured around the apartment.
Jiang Zhouzhou changed out its cat food and water, then went to scoop the litter box.
Raising a cat was not a simple thing.
But when she saw Tangyuan so lively and active, her heart felt incredibly at ease.
All the worries that had troubled her throughout the night were swept away in that moment.
She thought, no matter what kind of person Brother Cockroach was, to her…
He would always be her benefactor.
