The Streamer's Allure: Top Fans Vying for Her Affection - Chapter 18
Chapter 18
“Please don’t discuss others in the chat, everyone! I just learned a new song today. Would you like to hear it?”
Jiang Zhouzhou tried to shift the chat’s attention, but it was to little effect.
[Nanfeng hasn’t been the same Nanfeng for a long time. Back then, he’d drop millions in tips like it was nothing, but for the past six months, he hasn’t spent a cent in any stream he enters. He’s probably really bankrupt.]
[Didn’t he tip Chenguang five thousand a couple of days ago?]
[I strongly suspect Nanfeng sold his account, and the one who bought it is Chenguang.]
[Back then, every streamer Nanfeng visited practically wanted to worship him. Now that he’s stopped tipping, he’s nothing.]
[Riding a Donkey for a Breeze has been muted for 30 minutes by moderator Xiaomi Congee.]
[Take It Out for a Walk has been muted for 30 minutes by moderator Xiaomi Congee.]
[Xiaomi Congee: Get out if you want to talk trash. Don’t interrupt me listening to Zhouzhou sing.]
With Xiaomi Congee’s domineering statement, the chat immediately quieted down.
Jiang Zhouzhou kept an eye on the viewers currently in the room and noticed that Nanfeng was still there, though he remained silent and hadn’t posted anything.
After a moment’s thought, Jiang Zhouzhou said seriously, “Regarding stream tipping, it’s a voluntary thing. Even if you don’t send gifts, I’m still very happy as long as you come to my stream to support me. So please, don’t try to start drama about others in my room.”
[LMAO, you’re sucking up to him that much? He won’t even send you a one-cent Red Heart.]
[Only this streamer would still treat that pauper Nanfeng like a treasure.]
[Zhang Zhang Zhang has been kicked from the stream by Century Egg and Pork Congee.]
[What Are You Looking At has been kicked from the stream by Century Egg and Pork Congee.]
[Tomato and Egg Stir-fry: Something feels off. It feels like someone is intentionally trying to bait Big Shot Nanfeng.]
[Xiaomi Congee: Zhouzhou, don’t pay any attention to these idiots.]
At this point, it wasn’t just Jiang Zhouzhou who noticed the atmosphere in the chat was wrong; others had realized it too.
Jiang Zhouzhou’s brow furrowed deeply. What exactly did this crowd of people who had just flooded into the stream want to do?
Seeing that Nanfeng still hadn’t surfaced to speak, those trying to stir up trouble became even more aggressive.
[Why isn’t Nanfeng coming out to talk? Has he turned into a shrinking turtle?]
[Seems like after going bankrupt, he lost his backbone too.]
[Hilarious. He acted like such a big shot before, but now he’s a nobody!]
[Eyes Wide Like Copper Bells has been kicked from the stream by moderator Xiaomi Congee.]
[Xiaomi Congee tipped the streamer Super Rocket * 1… * 5… * 10] (1000 Fish Balls)
[Chenguang is a Dog tipped the streamer Sports Car * 10] (100 Fish Balls)
After kicking out the troublemakers, Lin Chen flooded the screen with gifts, hoping to bury the chat’s comments and prevent them from affecting Jiang Zhouzhou’s stream.
It was obvious that someone was looking for trouble in Jiang Zhouzhou’s stream today, and the target was clearly Nanfeng.
After all, Nanfeng had been incredibly high-profile on the Shark Platform back in the day-an absolute top-tier Tycoon.
However, such a high profile naturally invited resentment from others.
Yesterday, Nanfeng had made a joke in Jiang Zhouzhou’s stream about being bankrupt. Those who were dying for him to actually go broke had caught the scent and were now rushing over, one after another, to kick him while he was down.
Looking at the gift effects on the screen, Jiang Zhouzhou said without much enthusiasm, “Thank you for the gifts, Baby Mizhou. Thank you for the gifts too, Dog Brother…”
Just then, a PK request suddenly connected to Jiang Zhouzhou.
Jiang Zhouzhou hadn’t intended to accept it, but her finger slipped; instead of clicking decline, she hit accept.
The screen split in two, and a very unfamiliar face popped up.
The other person wore heavy makeup, with exaggerated colored contacts beneath thick false eyelashes. She wore a tube top that bared her midriff and ultra-short denim shorts. With even a slight lean forward, her cleavage was clearly visible.
“Is Nanfeng with you?”
The woman’s tone was incredibly hostile. Even through the screen, her eyes made no attempt to hide her contempt.
Jiang Zhouzhou glanced at her profile. This was a Diamond Five-Star streamer named Wanwan’er, with a massive following of over three million fans.
This was the first time she had ever been connected with such a famous female streamer.
However, seeing the other woman’s attitude, Jiang Zhouzhou replied coldly, “Does that have anything to do with you?”
Hearing Jiang Zhouzhou’s response, the opposing streamer sneered. “Newbies these days have quite the temper. You don’t seem to understand the word ‘respect’ at all.”
Jiang Zhouzhou countered, “Isn’t respect supposed to be mutual? I don’t see any respect in your eyes either, so what right do you have to demand it from me?”
[Chenguang is a Dog: Ooh, she finally grew a backbone.]
[I’ll express my relief on behalf of Brother Cockroach first.]
[Good comeback, Zhouzhou!]
[Nanfeng: When will I be as tough as the streamer?]
[LMAO, Big Shot Nanfeng is still here.]
[Why did Wanwan’er suddenly connect with Zhouzhou? Looking at this setup… I feel like she’s looking for trouble.]
Because the other party was so famous, a steady stream of new viewers began flooding into Jiang Zhouzhou’s livestream room.
[Came here for the hype. So this is the kind of ‘trash’ Nanfeng has been watching lately?]
[She looks alright, pretty pure. Followed for now.]
[Streamer, you down for a date? Price is negotiable.]
[Xiaomi Congee: Did you gargle with piss after eating shit? If you’re so brave, come ask me for a date. Name any price you want-consider it your funeral expenses.]
[Tomato and Egg Stir-fry: Whose gate was left open? How did so many mad dogs get out to bite people? We won’t be held responsible if you get beaten to death.]
[Why pick on Zhouzhou? If you’ve got the guts, come pick on a tough guy like me-six feet tall, 165 pounds, strong with an eight-pack.]
Seeing her fans defend her, Jiang Zhouzhou suddenly felt a surge of warm energy pour into her gradually withering heart.
For the longest time, she had used weakness to escape things she didn’t want to face, deceiving herself.
But her fans’ protection today gave her a sudden burst of courage and the strength to face trouble head-on.
A flash of determination crossed Jiang Zhouzhou’s watery eyes. She randomly picked a hostile comment and said, “If I’m ‘trash,’ then what kind of garbage are you?”
“‘Price is negotiable’? Since you love being price-tagged so much, are you a package at a courier station?”
In the chat, Jiang Zhouzhou’s fans fell silent for a split second.
[Xiaomi Congee: (꒪Д꒪)]
[Am I hallucinating?]
[Nanfeng: I adore the streamer (✪ω✪)]
[As expected of my favorite streamer, even her insults are so charming.]
[Xiaomi Congee: Zhouzhou, don’t look at the hate comments. Leave the arguing and insulting to me. You just need to maintain your fairy persona.]
Jiang Zhouzhou’s face flushed slightly. This was the first time she had completely disregarded her image in front of her fans.
[Chenguang is a Dog: It seems the streamer hasn’t just been secretly learning livestreaming scripts, but also a lot of comeback scripts.]
[Insult them more, streamer. I love hearing it. This is satisfying.]
Seeing this specific comment, the corner of Jiang Zhouzhou’s mouth twitched.
[Being a Dog is Better Than Being Human has been kicked from the livestream by moderator Xiaomi Congee]
Seeing that Jiang Zhouzhou wasn’t someone to be trifled with, the comments trying to stir up trouble gradually decreased.
At that moment, Wanwan’er finally spoke up. “Since Nanfeng is with you, I’ll get straight to the point. My Big Brother wants to challenge Nanfeng to a 1v1. If he loses, he has to post ‘I am trash’ on his profile for a week, then delete his account and never appear on the Shark Platform again.”
“Ask him-does he dare to accept?”
