The Streamer's Allure: Top Fans Vying for Her Affection - Chapter 20
Chapter 20
[I have to say, Zhouzhou is a very clear-headed person.]
[I see it now. Even knowing she missed out on a million, her expression didn’t change one bit.]
Seeing the viewers in the livestream praising her so highly, Jiang Zhouzhou couldn’t help but feel a bit sheepish.
After all…
She did feel a tiny, tiny bit tempted…
[Tomato and Egg Stir-fry: Alright, let’s stop talking about that. Didn’t Zhouzhou Baby say she prepared a song? I want to hear my daughter sing. So excited!]
At Tomato and Egg Stir-fry’s mention, Jiang Zhouzhou’s cheeks flushed slightly.
“I did learn a song, but I’m not very practiced. I might go out of tune a bit.”
[It’s fine. Even if Zhouzhou sings ‘The Great River Flows East,’ I’ll still love it.]
[What ‘Great River Flows East’? That’s called ‘Song of the Hero.’]
[Wait, isn’t it called ‘The Stars in the Sky Bow to the Big Dipper’?]
The banter in the bullet chat restored the usual harmonious atmosphere.
Jiang Zhouzhou didn’t have any professional singing equipment. She opened a saved playlist on her phone, searched for the song she wanted to sing, and clicked play.
A gentle, slow-paced rhythm began to play in the livestream…
Watching the livestream, Xiaomi Congee’s expression shifted instantly upon hearing the familiar melody.
On the screen, Jiang Zhouzhou’s voice began to drift out along with the accompaniment.
“There are so many people in this world…”
“In the crowd, a door stands open…”
Her voice was very slow and steady, even softer than the original singer. Although a few lines were slightly out of tune, it didn’t negatively impact the listeners’ experience.
“The long corridor of time, the clamor of footsteps…”
She sat there quietly, singing softly in her calm voice. Everything around her seemed to settle down, leaving only her gentle singing to soothe the suppressed irritability in everyone’s hearts.
It wasn’t until the song ended that the fans in the livestream gradually snapped out of it.
[Waaaah, who said this song wasn’t good? This was way too beautiful!]
[Bean Sprout Teacher ruins the mood every time they open their mouth.]
[The original is great, but Zhouzhou’s version is also incredible.]
[Xiaomi Congee gifted the streamer Super Rocket *1] (1000 Fish Balls)
[Xiaomi Congee gifted the streamer Romantic Confession *1] (520 Fish Balls)
[Xiaomi Congee gifted the streamer Romantic Lover *1] (1999 Fish Balls)
[Xiaomi Congee: That was beautiful. This song is actually my favorite.]
Jiang Zhouzhou scratched her head and said softly to the camera, “Um… I saw you share this song on your Moments. I listened to it and thought it was really nice, so I learned it to give you a surprise.”
These words struck Lin Chen straight in the heart.
He had thought it was a coincidence, but she had specifically learned it for him.
Who could resist that!
[Xiaomi Congee gifted the streamer Luxury Cruise *1] (5000 Fish Balls)
[Xiaomi Congee gifted the streamer Luxury Cruise *2]
[Xiaomi Congee gifted the streamer Luxury Cruise *10]
Gift effects flooded the entire screen as if they cost nothing.
[Chenguang is a Dog: The streamer is playing him like a dog.]
[Boss Xiaomi Congee is so domineering!]
[That song was worth every penny. No wonder the streamer put in the effort to learn it.]
Seeing the comments, Jiang Zhouzhou was about to explain, but Xiaomi Congee shut them down himself.
[Xiaomi Congee: Heh, you guys are just jealous. After all, Zhouzhou didn’t specifically learn the songs you like.]
[Xiaomi Congee: Tsk, tsk, tsk. Jealousy really makes you all look hideous.]
[Xiaomi Congee: What are you barking about? @Chenguang is a Dog]
[Chenguang is a Dog: …]
Every time she saw these two interacting, Jiang Zhouzhou couldn’t help but smile.
“Baby Mizhou and Dog Brother must be pretty close in private, right?” Jiang Zhouzhou asked with a playful curve to her eyes.
[Xiaomi Congee: I don’t know him.]
[Chenguang is a Dog: We’re not close.]
Jiang Zhouzhou nodded thoughtfully. “Oh, so a double negative equals a positive.”
[Xiaomi Congee: …]
[Chenguang is a Dog: …]
[LMAO, I’d bet my colleague’s paycheck that these two definitely know each other.]
[Xiong Tailang: DDD! Sister Zhou, come play a multiplayer match! I’m about to lose everything down to my boxers. Come save me!]
At that moment, Xiong Tailang suddenly appeared in the bullet chat.
Jiang Zhouzhou had a decent impression of him. Seeing him ask for a collab, she didn’t refuse. “Sure. Brother Xiong, go ahead and send me an invite!”
She hadn’t done a PK yet today; just chatting with fans all the time could get a bit dry.
Soon, the notification for Xiong Tailang’s connection request popped up, and Jiang Zhouzhou clicked accept.
The screen split into four. Besides Xiong Tailang, the other two streamers were unfamiliar faces.
“Xiong Gouzei, you’re pathetic. You said you were going to bring in reinforcements, but you just brought a girl?”
An male streamer spoke first. He was somewhat handsome, but he was wearing a wig that looked like a feather duster, giving him a comical appearance.
Xiong Tailang huffed. “Look down on my Sister Zhou now, but don’t go begging for mercy when you’re crying later.”
Jiang Zhouzhou gave a helpless smile. Xiong Tailang was certainly good at drawing aggro for her.
She glanced at the male streamer’s profile. His name was Jin Jianjin, a Diamond 2-star streamer with over a hundred thousand followers. He was considered a veteran.
The other streamer, who hadn’t spoken yet, was a woman with a cute, ‘sweet girl’ face. Her name was Feifeifei Ya. Her level wasn’t high, and she only had about fifty thousand followers.
However, as soon as she opened her mouth, a thick Northeastern accent came out, creating a massive contrast with her appearance.
Feifeifei Ya got straight to the point. “Welcome to the new girl. We won’t bother with self-introductions. We’re not doing a standard PK this round; we’re doing an entertainment interaction match. The game is that ‘How Do Animals Sound’ game that’s been popular lately. If you can’t answer within ten seconds, you lose. The loser has to gift a Sports Car to each of the other three players to ‘revive.’ Any objections?”
Jiang Zhouzhou thought the game sounded interesting and nodded. “Sure, I have no objections.”
[Good luck, Zhouzhou! I believe you’ll definitely… lose with a bit of dignity.]
[Anti-fan detected. Kick them out!]
[Yu Fen: I know how to play this. I’m an expert.]
[Xiaomi Congee: Zhouzhou, have you ever played this before? Be careful, this game is full of traps.]
Jiang Zhouzhou blinked and answered honestly, “Yeah, I played it back in kindergarten.”
[…]
[…]
[.]
Xiong Tailang burst out laughing. “Don’t worry, Sister Zhou. This game is super simple, exactly like what you played in kindergarten.”
[How does Xiong Gouzei have the face to say that?]
[He definitely invited Zhouzhou today to get revenge for yesterday’s hip-shaking penalty.]
[Obviously. During Chimei Wangliang, Xiong Gouzei almost snapped his waist.]
[He knows he can’t win a PK, so he’s using this method to get his win back.]
Xiong Tailang said, “It’s Sister Zhou’s first time, so we’ll let her start. No objections, right?”
Jin Jianjin: “None.”
Feifeifei Ya: “Me neither.”
And so, after Xiong Tailang reset the connection timer, the game officially began.
Jiang Zhouzhou didn’t think twice and said, “How do animals sound? A duck!”
Feifeifei Ya responded instantly. She pinched her throat and said in a high-pitched, coquettish voice, “…uck? Uck, why don’t you open another bottle of champagne for me, okay?~”
Jiang Zhouzhou: ???
You can do that?!
