The Streamer's Allure: Top Fans Vying for Her Affection - Chapter 2
Chapter 2
[Chenguang has already bullied five small-time streamers into tears today.]
[They deserve it. These women just turn on a beauty filter, shake their asses, call someone ‘Big Brother,’ and the money starts rolling in. Chenguang is just helping the bros see their true faces.]
[This new streamer has her beauty filters cranked up so high. I wonder how ugly she is in real life.]
[This face is as fake as it gets. She’s definitely some middle-aged auntie in her thirties.]
Jiang Zhouzhou frowned as she watched the influx of new comments.
But before she could say anything, the troublemakers were all muted and kicked out by Sexy Mother Cockroach.
[Chenguang Is An Idiot has been muted by moderator Sexy Mother Cockroach.]
[Light of Righteousness has been muted by moderator Sexy Mother Cockroach.]

The comments in the stream quickly cleared up, but it also became quiet.
Chenguang finally spoke up: “Since you’re a new streamer, I won’t bully you. We’ll PK based on our total ranking scores. If you lose, you have to turn off your beauty filters and remove your makeup.”
As he finished, he arched an eyebrow, a malicious smile playing on his lips. “Of course, if you’re too scared to accept, just tip me a Super Rocket and I’ll cancel the PK immediately.”
A Super Rocket was worth 1,000 Fish Balls, which was equivalent to 1,000 RMB.
Jiang Zhouzhou was already dirt poor; there was no way she could produce that much money at once.
So, she steeled herself and said, “Fine, I accept.”
It was just turning off filters and removing makeup; it was no big deal.
Even though Jiang Zhouzhou knew she would definitely lose, she still said firmly, “If you lose, you have to tip me a Sports Car!”
She only wanted the money and had no intention of punishing the other side.
Chenguang paused for a moment, then laughed disdainfully. “Sure! But I believe my family in the stream won’t let me lose.”
The PK lasted for five minutes. During these five minutes, the streamers had to solicit votes. The competition was based on the total contribution value of viewer tips.
Whether on the Shark Platform or other streaming sites, 10 Contribution Points = 1 Fish Ball.

[Sexy Mother Cockroach: Your opponent is Chenguang, so you’re probably going to lose. He’s notorious for bullying new female streamers. Since many female streamers nowadays love using beauty filters, he PKs them with the condition that the loser has to turn off their filters and face-slimming effects. This forces the new streamers to reveal their true forms, leading many fans to unfollow them or even turn on them. Some see their popularity plummet, while others are forced to delete their accounts in shame.]
[Even though Chenguang is a scumbag, a lot of people love watching this stuff.]
[He can only bully small streamers who don’t have a Big Brother or Big Sister as a Guardian. If he’s so tough, he should try bullying a top-tier streamer.]

In Jiang Zhouzhou’s stream, Sexy Mother Cockroach was the only viewer tipping. She was being completely crushed by Chenguang.
Seeing the PK progress bar being pushed back until it was nearly a thin sliver, Jiang Zhouzhou didn’t feel much tension.
“Thank you for the Bunny Ears, Baby Cockroach.”
On the screen, a Bunny Ears effect appeared on her head. She held up V-signs with both hands, making a cute bunny pose for the camera.
[Sexy Mother Cockroach: Streamer, you’re really carefree.]
Jiang Zhouzhou smiled. “It’s because I think this punishment is very light. As long as I don’t have to give away money, nothing else matters.”
[Sexy Mother Cockroach: …]
This was the first time he had entered a new streamer’s room. He had just clicked in randomly and was about to leave when he saw this streamer sitting there like an idiot, not moving at all, so he had spoken up out of curiosity.
He, who had always adhered to the philosophy of being a free-loader, had tipped a streamer for the first time-and it was a female streamer at that.
Forget it, I’ll just consider this as spending money to accumulate good karma!

Over twenty thousand total Contribution Points instantly knocked the opposing Chenguang down the rankings.
The current health bar ratio between Jiang Zhouzhou and Chenguang was 23,340 vs. 9,807.
Receiving such a large amount of gifts all at once, Jiang Zhouzhou was so shocked she was speechless.
“Th-thank you, Baby Cockroach. This… this is really too much. You shouldn’t spend so much money.”
Including the previous Sports Car, this viewer had gifted her nearly 2,500 yuan.
In Jiang Zhouzhou’s eyes, this was a massive sum of money.
[Sexy Mother Cockroach: Silly. Isn’t the whole point of being a streamer to make money from your audience?]
[Sexy Mother Cockroach: It’s all of my own free will. If I couldn’t afford it, I wouldn’t be slapping my own face to look fat.]
Jiang Zhouzhou rubbed her burning cheeks, feeling like she had been scolded by Baby Cockroach again…
On the other side, Chenguang saw that he had been overtaken and immediately shouted at the top of his lungs, “Everyone, step it up! The other side only has one person sending gifts. We can’t lose!”
Chenguang’s stream had over 300 viewers, but very few of them actually had deep pockets.
Furthermore, Chenguang had already done five consecutive PKs against different streamers, and many of his viewers’ wallets were starting to feel the strain.
However, spurred by Chenguang’s desperate shouting, the gifts began to pick up again.

[Pig Intestine gifted Chenguang Sunglasses *5] (10 Fish Balls)
[Everyone, push harder! I want to see that woman’s face without filters.]
[I don’t think she’ll be ugly without filters. Even though she has the beauty filters on, her figure looks great.]
[You can only see her upper body. You can’t see jack shit. For all we know, she has radish legs under the table.]
But even with all these scattered small votes added up, Chenguang’s total Contribution Points still hadn’t surpassed Jiang Zhouzhou’s.
Chenguang’s expression grew frantic as the timer began its final countdown. Just as he thought he was going to lose this round…
[Nanfeng gifted Chenguang Luxury Cruise *1] (5000 Fish Balls)
Chenguang’s eyes widened, and he shouted excitedly, “Thank you, Big Brother Nanfeng, for the Luxury Cruise!”
Because he was so excited, his voice actually cracked.
[Welcome, Big Shot Nanfeng!]
[I didn’t expect Big Shot Nanfeng to be like us-wanting to see the female streamer turn off her filters and remove her makeup.]
[Heh, I almost thought Chenguang was going to lose this one.]
[Big Shot Nanfeng is mighty!]
The time ran out. Jiang Zhouzhou lost the PK.
Jiang Zhouzhou said somewhat regretfully, “I’m sorry, Baby Cockroach. You gave me so many gifts, but I still lost…”
[Sexy Mother Cockroach: It’s fine. You’ll have more and more supporters in the future. Don’t be sad over a temporary win or loss.]
In reality, he had topped up ten thousand yuan and could have helped Jiang Zhouzhou win at the last second.
But at the final moment…
His instincts as a businessman made him hesitate. Was it really worth spending so much money on a female streamer he had never even met?
After all, Jiang Zhouzhou wasn’t particularly outstanding on the Shark Platform. While she looked beautiful with the filters on, she lacked talent and popularity, meaning she wasn’t destined to go far…
It was that moment of hesitation that caused Jiang Zhouzhou to lose the PK.
Chenguang, on the other side, unmuted his audio. With a smug look, he said, “Alright, according to the rules we agreed on, start by turning off your beauty filters, and then remove your makeup…”
