The Streamer's Allure: Top Fans Vying for Her Affection - Chapter 52
Chapter 52
After “Entertainment King” was tossed into the Small Black Room-basically a timeout ban-only Jiang Zhouzhou and the other two were left on the live connection.
Wanwan’er lifted a hand and swept back her big wavy curls, smiling at Jiang Zhouzhou. “Sister Zhou, pull me out of your blacklist, will you? We were teammates in tonight’s PK, at least. If there’s a chance later, we can keep playing together.”
Her voice was poised and open, as if none of the old bad blood had ever existed.
Banana Pie was completely lost. “Blacklist?”
What was this about?
[Xiangxiang, you… finally caught on.]
[Did Banana forget Gaoshan used to be Wanwan’er’s Big Brother? (covers mouth, snickering)]
[Back then Gaoshan egged Wanwan’er on to go pick a fight, but Zhouzhou blacklisted her, and that’s how Nanfeng ended up dropping a million in one go.]
[Yeah yeah yeah, that legendary PK was brutal. I remember Wanwan’er was raging in another stream, like she was about to bite her teeth to pieces. If she’d PK’d Zhouzhou back then, she would’ve been the one cashing in. Instead her Big Brother ran off and she didn’t get a single penny.]
Reading the gossip in the danmaku, Banana Pie finally remembered.
Back then, she’d only been focused on finding popular Female Streamers to help out and had totally forgotten that whole incident.
Jiang Zhouzhou didn’t hold that grudge anymore. She nodded. “Mm. Okay.”
It was just unblocking-neither of them followed the other.
After chatting a little more, the three of them ended the connection.
Three PKs in a row. Even though Jiang Zhouzhou had been sitting the entire time, she still felt drained in both body and mind.
Just then, there was a knock at the door.
The viewers couldn’t hear it clearly, but they did hear Jiang Zhouzhou jump up and say in a rush, “Wait a sec-coming, coming~”
When she stood, her loose T-shirt revealed two straight, long legs… but before anyone could get a proper look, she’d already stepped out of frame.
[…I could simp for those legs for the rest of my life.]
[Just bought a brand-new tricycle. I’d like to invite Zhouzhou to my place to pedal it. (Rose in mouth)]
[Just took a piss. Let me help the brother upstairs sober up.]
[Dian: I think I heard a man.]
[Xiaomi Congee: ?]
[Oh? I heard it too. Definitely a guy’s voice. Zhouzhou’s boyfriend came to see her?]
[Xiaomi Congee: .]
[Chenguang is a Dog: Stop. Keep going and the simps are gonna snap.]
[Xiaomi Congee: !]
Jiang Zhouzhou came back into frame with her takeout.
She glanced at the scrolling danmaku and smiled helplessly.
“I just opened the door to grab my takeout. You all are imagining way too much…”
The way they were talking, it sounded like she’d been caught cheating.
[Big Rice: It’s all Emperor Dian running his mouth.]
[Chenguang is a Dog: It’s all Emperor Dian running his mouth.]
[Dian: ?]
[Dian: Hey-no, what’s wrong with you people? You all pick on me every time! Streamer, rein in these lawless fans of yours! Don’t go breaking the heart of your Top Brother for today!]
[Sexy Mother Cockroach tipped Century Egg and Pork Congee Shark Spaceship *1… *10… *20… *50…] (19,999 Fish Balls)
In the blink of an eye, Dian’s spot as Top One dropped off Jiang Zhouzhou’s Contribution Ranking.
[Sexy Mother Cockroach: Now you’re not.]
[Dian: (furious)]
[Brother Cockroach is insane-]
[In front of the Family Head, Emperor Dian should really say less.]
As Jiang Zhouzhou’s very first fan, the old-timers all knew exactly what kind of status Brother Cockroach had.
Jiang Zhouzhou was carefully tearing open her takeout packaging when she looked up and saw the gift effects filling the screen.
“Baby Cockroach, you’re sending more again! Stop spending money. You’ve already sent so much today… even if you don’t feel bad about it, I do…”
Over the course of these two livestreams, “Sexy Mother Cockroach” had showered the room with nearly six million in gifts. It was an absolutely staggering amount.
“And Emperor Dian… if you’d just talk a little less, my babies in the chat wouldn’t bully you!”
[Dian: So you admit they’re bullying me?]
[Dian: aggrieved.jpg]
Jiang Zhouzhou looked at the Danmaku, realizing that this “Dian” had a knack for making her lips twitch every single time.
He was way too good at overanalyzing her words.
“Alright, alright. Since Emperor Dian is our Top Two Big Brother today, everyone give him a break!”
Her use of the word “give” carried a hint of doting indulgence.
[Dian: Did you all hear that? The streamer has spoken. (smug.jpg)]
[Fine, fine]
[Big Rice: Your uncle sure spoils his dad.]
[Chenguang is a Dog: Was the streamer a professional dog trainer before this?]
Jiang Zhouzhou: “…”
She had almost forgotten about this heavyweight user. Always one to watch the chaos from the sidelines and stir the pot, they never failed to say something shocking.
[Sexy Mother Cockroach: Why are you eating takeout so late?]
[Yeah, it’s really late now]
[What’s Zhouzhou eating tonight?]
Jiang Zhouzhou held her unwrapped takeout up to the camera for her fans to see.
“It’s ham and egg stir-fried rice noodles from downstairs. I wasn’t very hungry tonight, so I’m eating a bit late.”
She tore open the packaging of her disposable chopsticks and used them to lightly toss the noodles, which were starting to clump together.
[Big Rice: Looks pretty good. Zhouzhou seems to really like that place downstairs. I remember Egg Fried Rice ate downstairs last time too.]
[I want to be a rice noodle and get eaten in one bite by the streamer]
[I want to be the chopsticks and get put in the streamer’s mouth]
[You people are wild]
Jiang Zhouzhou hadn’t even taken a bite yet. Seeing the Danmaku, she couldn’t help but laugh. “You guys are way too thirsty!”
[Sexy Mother Cockroach: That kind of greasy takeout-eat less of it from now on.]
Jiang Zhouzhou nodded. “Mm-hmm, but their food really is delicious! And it’s right downstairs in the complex. It’s super clean, too.”
She had a hard time deciding what to eat; whenever she couldn’t make up her mind, she’d go to the little restaurant downstairs.
[Nanfeng has entered the room]
Even more attention-grabbing than the flashy entrance effect was the name itself.
[Big Rice: Big Shot Nanfeng is here]
[Good evening, Big Shot Nanfeng]
[Chenguang is a Dog: The second Family Head is here]
[Dian: The kid’s already fed and only now does the stepdad show up? @Nanfeng]
[Nanfeng: ?]
The man had just entered the room and didn’t even know what was going on, but he got hit with a jab anyway.
Seeing Nanfeng arrive, Jiang Zhouzhou’s soft voice turned bright with delight. “Welcome, Baby Nanfeng! Don’t listen to Emperor Dian talking nonsense-I haven’t even eaten yet!”
Gu Nanfeng, who knew Jiang Zhouzhou well, could tell at a glance that she was deliberately changing the subject.
[Nanfeng: What happened? @Dian]
[Dian: Huh? Why are you tagging me? Can I even say it? If I say it, the streamer won’t get mad, right?]
[Dian: Forget it. I’m not saying anything.]
[Nanfeng: …]
What a motor mouth.
[Big Rice: Ahem, it’s really nothing. Entertainment King played a three-on-one against Zhouzhou and Sister Banana. Their Big Brother was too fierce- we almost lost.]
As for the Punishment… she definitely didn’t dare say more.
Couldn’t they see one Family Head was already upset?
Jiang Zhouzhou chimed in, “Yeah, it was just a simple PK. We won it easy.”
[Chenguang is a Dog: The loser has to crawl up the stairs like a dog]
Jiang Zhouzhou: (꒪Д꒪)
