The Streamer's Allure: Top Fans Vying for Her Affection - Chapter 3
Chapter 3
Chenguang’s fans flooded into Jiang Zhouzhou’s livestream room all at once.
[Turn off the beauty filter, take off the makeup!]
[Turn off the filter, remove the makeup!]
[Turn off the filter, remove the makeup!]
These demands completely took over the bullet chat.
Some smaller streamers who had been bullied by him before couldn’t help but chime in: [Chenguang’s dogs are out barking again.]
[They only pick on newcomers. If you’re so tough, go pick on a top-tier streamer like Xiangxiang.]
[Forget it. If one of Xiangxiang’s Big Brothers stepped in, these mangy mutts would be running with their tails between their legs.]
Xiangxiang, whose full name was Banana Pie, was currently the top Looks Streamer on the Shark Platform.
Even though today was Jiang Zhouzhou’s first time streaming, she had come across Xiangxiang’s name before.
She had heard that Xiangxiang could easily make hundreds of thousands of yuan in a single session.
Because Jiang Zhouzhou’s penalty was to turn off her beauty filters and remove her makeup, other curious viewers also swarmed in to watch the drama.
In just a few seconds, the number of viewers in the room actually broke one hundred.
However, these people were just there for the spectacle, waiting to mock her once she disabled the filters and took off her makeup.
Jiang Zhouzhou, on the other hand, gave a silly, cheerful smile. “Welcome to Zhouzhou’s livestream! If you like what you see, please hit that follow button so you don’t lose your way next time.”
After saying that, she followed Chenguang’s demand and turned off the beauty filters first.
Shark Live had a one-click beauty enhancement feature, which meant it could also be turned off with a single click.
In the livestream window, the woman who had previously looked as pale as a ghost suddenly changed. She transformed into a girl who looked incredibly pure and beautiful.
Without the skin-smoothing filter that made her look like a mannequin, her skin appeared fair, tender, and flushed with a healthy pink glow. Her dark eyes were clear and watery, like the innocent, pitiful eyes of a puppy. Just one look through the screen was enough to strike a chord in one’s heart, making it tighten suddenly.
Even though she was wearing cheap clothes, they looked high-end when paired with such an exquisite face.
Seeing the bullet chat suddenly go silent, Jiang Zhouzhou thought the viewers had been scared away by her real appearance.
After all, there was always a bit of a difference between a phone camera and a person’s actual looks. Her classmates and friends often told her the same thing: “You are so unphotogenic!”
She said dejectedly, “I’m not wearing any makeup, and the filters are off. Is this okay?”
Jiang Zhouzhou sniffled and looked at Chenguang, who was staring blankly at her from the other side of the screen.
Chenguang quickly snapped out of it and stammered, “It… it’s fine!”
[Chenguang is totally dazed.]
[Damn, I misjudged her. This female streamer is way too beautiful.]
[If this is really her without makeup, she’s even better than the top Looks Streamer.]
[I don’t believe it. Women are all liars. Isn’t there something called ‘no-makeup’ makeup? Maybe she’s wearing that to trick us straight guys.]
[Yeah, yeah, make her wash her face.]
Looking at the bullet chat, Chenguang quickly said, “The brothers in my room suspect you’re wearing that ‘no-makeup’ whatever-it-is makeup. Go wash your face to prove it.”
Jiang Zhouzhou hadn’t expected it to be this much trouble, but she was a good sport. She nodded and replied, “Alright then, I’ll go wash my face.”
She stood up and walked toward the bathroom.
The moment the viewers saw her stand up, the bullet chat exploded with activity.
[Those legs… Help, they’re longer than my lifespan!]
[I wouldn’t care even if she were ugly; those legs alone are enough to keep her famous for a lifetime.]
[Slurp, slurp-that’s the sound of me drooling.]
[Tell that scoundrel Chenguang I’m not coming back.]
[I declare this livestream room my home. Everywhere else is just a hotel.]
Sexy Mother Cockroach watched the increasingly lively room and became silent instead…
It was undeniable that the moment Jiang Zhouzhou turned off the beauty filters, he had also been stunned for a second.
Even though he had seen many beautiful women, the clean and pure aura Jiang Zhouzhou carried was truly rare. Especially when paired with her soft, sweet voice, she felt like a little kitten that had tucked away its claws, scratching at his heart in a way that left him itching for more.
Watching more and more people flock to Jiang Zhouzhou’s channel, he suddenly regretted making her lose the PK…
Chenguang was also feeling a bit nervous. As a veteran of the streaming world, he could naturally tell that Jiang Zhouzhou really did look like that in person, but he couldn’t resist the clamor of the brothers in the chat. He’d had no choice but to make her wash her face to prove it.
In a place where the viewers couldn’t see, his heart was pounding wildly.
How could someone be so perfectly tailored to his aesthetic preferences?
However, Chenguang also understood that a woman this beautiful was bound to become a hit as a female streamer; she just lacked a bit of accumulated time.
By then, Jiang Zhouzhou had already returned from washing her face. To ensure the viewers could see clearly, she didn’t immediately wipe away the water droplets.
She returned to her seat and pinched her cheek toward the camera, her delicate, fair skin instantly turning a light red.
“Can everyone see clearly now? I’m really not wearing any makeup!”
Although she had gone to an interview today, she hadn’t put on any makeup because her skills were quite clumsy.
Because she had just washed her face, her skin looked even fairer. Crystal-clear droplets hung from her long eyelashes, making her look a bit pitiful, as if she had just been bullied.
[I see you clearly, wifey!]
[My wife is naturally beautiful indeed, like a lotus rising from clear water.]
[Wifey, can you move your face closer to the camera? I want to give you a kiss.]
[Some of you need to stop being so pathetic. Where was this attitude when you were calling my wife a thirty-eight-year-old hag?]
[Person above me, you’re acting like you didn’t say it too. I remember your ID; you were barking the loudest in Chenguang’s stream.]
[It’s a dog-eat-dog world in here.]
[We’re all brothers here, don’t lose your cool over a woman. I suggest if you have a problem, go outside and have a duel. If one of you dies, that’s one less person competing with me for my wife.]
[How much for a night?]
Because the contrast after Jiang Zhouzhou turned off the filters was so massive, the chat instantly became lively, though it was also interspersed with some nasty comments.
[Thirsty Blade Charging the Enemy has been kicked from the stream by moderator Sexy Mother Cockroach.]
Jiang Zhouzhou stared at the scrolling comments in a daze. However, since she had completed her punishment, she spoke to Chenguang on the screen: “I’ve finished the task. Can I turn the filters back on now?”
To her, the filters provided a sense of security, hiding all her imperfections.
Chenguang: “???”
The viewers in the chat: [???]
[Sexy Mother Cockroach: No!]
[Don’t you dare!]
[You call that a beauty filter? That’s clearly an ‘ugly filter’!]
[I beg of you, whatever you do, don’t turn on the filters!]
[I swear an eternal feud against Shark’s beauty filters!]
Seeing so many viewers stopping her from turning them back on, Jiang Zhouzhou could only withdraw her hand sheepishly.
“Everyone won’t let me… then I guess I won’t!”
Facing the camera, she began to feel awkward again.
That was until she saw Chenguang suddenly send her a gift.
[Chenguang gifted Century Egg and Pork Congee: Super Rocket * 1] (1,000 Fish Balls)
Jiang Zhouzhou said in surprise, “Didn’t you win? Why are you sending me a gift?”
A Super Rocket-that was 1,000 yuan!
Chenguang arched an eyebrow. “This is your ‘medical fee.’ Since this is your first time streaming, you probably don’t know the platform’s unspoken rules. If the opponent loses a PK, the winner usually sends a gift as compensation. Usually, small streamers send something cheap, while big streamers are quite generous with the medical fees.”
In reality, Chenguang usually sent a gift worth a few cents just to humiliate his opponents. This was the first time he had ever been so generous.
