The Streamer's Allure: Top Fans Vying for Her Affection - Chapter 53
Chapter 53
“Emperor Dian, can you please say a little less…”
Jiang Zhouzhou suddenly felt like the fried rice noodles in her hand weren’t so delicious anymore.
She had just finished coaxing “Brother Cockroach,” and now she had to coax another one…
[Dian: Huh?]
[Dian: Ah!]
[Dian: Ahhh, I didn’t say it! Host, don’t pin this on me!]
[Dian: This guy is the real culprit @Chenguang is a Dog]
Judging by the speed of his messages, it was clear how anxious he was.
[Big Rice: Hahaha, I’ll testify. It wasn’t Emperor Dian’s fault this time.]
[Chenguang is a Dog: Who told him his credibility with the host was so bad?]
[Dog Brother, you’re the culprit and yet you’re acting proud about it!]
The fans in the stream didn’t dare say anything, but he just had to blurt it out!
Jiang Zhouzhou peeked at the Danmaku. Seeing that “Nanfeng” still hadn’t appeared, she felt a sense of calm before the storm.
[Sexy Mother Cockroach: Just eat! Don’t wait until the takeout gets cold.]
At this moment, he was the only one noticing that Jiang Zhouzhou hadn’t finished her meal, so he reminded her in the Danmaku.
Jiang Zhouzhou smiled. “Mm, I know!”
She didn’t have a large appetite; she couldn’t finish even half a portion of fried rice noodles.
She tidied up and packed away the trash.
[Nanfeng: You’re only eating that much?]
The silent man finally reappeared.
Jiang Zhouzhou: “It’s not just a little, I ate more than half!”
[Nanfeng: Wasting food.]
Reprimanded, Jiang Zhouzhou’s face turned slightly red. “Then should I pick it back out and keep eating?”
[Nanfeng: …]
He couldn’t tell if she was being obedient or just plain rebellious!
[Big Rice: Don’t! Fried rice noodles get greasier the more you eat. It’s fine if my daughter wastes a little bit.]
[That’s not the point. The point is that Brother Nanfeng is worried about the host only eating this.]
[Big Shot Nanfeng’s food allowance for today hasn’t been sent yet.]
Gu Nanfeng’s fingertips hovered over the phone screen, deleting and rewriting what he wanted to say.
Meanwhile, a Password Lucky Bag was suddenly released in the stream. Many fans clicked to participate, and the password automatically popped up in the chat.
[Big Rice: Baby Nanfeng, don’t be angry anymore~]
[Dian: Baby Nanfeng, don’t be angry anymore~]
[Yushiwuzheng: Baby Nanfeng, don’t be angry anymore~]
[…]
The entire stream was flooded with this phrase.
Jiang Zhouzhou also faced the camera and began to admit her mistake. “Brother Nanfeng, don’t be mad. I was wrong. Give me a hug. I won’t do it again. Forgive me…”
This was a new skill she had just learned from a rookie streamer guide on Little Green Book called the Eight-Count Apology.
She originally thought she would rarely use it, but it came in handy immediately…
Because the lines were too embarrassing, Jiang Zhouzhou’s face was flushed red after saying them.
[Wife… are you trying to kill us?]
[Who could possibly stay mad at her? Someone step forward and apologize to my wife right now!]
[Help, she’s really good at this.]
[Can Big Shot Nanfeng handle this?]
[Dian: Someone’s probably grinning like an idiot behind their screen right now.]
[Dian: I wonder if the Top Brother will be jealous?]
[Sexy Mother Cockroach: If you don’t speak, nobody will think you’re a mute.]
Outside the screen, Yin Yue wasn’t jealous. On the contrary, he felt the girl was very perceptive and clever.
She could sense “Nanfeng’s” displeasure and quickly found a way to make amends.
And for him… she used a completely different method.
She clearly knew how to handle different people, keeping the entire situation under her control.
This kind of person was born for this profession!
[Nanfeng gifted the host Shark Spaceship * 10] (19,999 Fish Balls)
[Nanfeng tipped the streamer Pinch Little Face *1] (19 Fish Balls)
[Nanfeng: You knew I’d be angry, so why didn’t you call for me when this happened?]
The exact same words appeared again.
The Pinch Little Face effect tugged at Jiang Zhouzhou’s cheeks. She raised a hand to scratch her head. “Because I felt embarrassed! It felt like I was intentionally asking you guys for money… I was afraid you’d find me annoying or start to hate me…”
Her voice trailed off until it was barely audible.
Jiang Zhouzhou suddenly remembered how she used to call her parents to ask for living expenses. Though she couldn’t see their faces, their voices had always been filled with disgust.
-“Every time you call, it’s for money. You’re like a debt collector.”
-“Money, money, money. You have hands and feet; can’t you earn it yourself?”
-“Didn’t I just give you two hundred last time? How are you out already?”
-“Stop bothering me. I don’t have any money for you this month. Go ask your father if you want money.”
Her parents were divorced, and both had moved on to new lives.
And she had become a burden they both wanted to discard.
[Big Rice: Zhouzhou Daughter, you’re overthinking it. I like you too much to ever hate you.]
[Sexy Mother Cockroach: We aren’t upset because you didn’t call us; we’re upset because you are someone we support and care about. Yet, when you needed support the most, you chose to shoulder it all alone and treated us like outsiders.]
That feeling of not being needed was the true source of their anger.
[As expected of our Family Head, you hit the nail on the head.]
[Nanfeng: As expected of our Family Head, you hit the nail on the head.]
[Dian: You guys should really thank me today. If I hadn’t protected your streamer, she would have lost that second match.]
[Yes, yes, Emperor Dian is the best.]
[Big Rice: Hehe, I feel like Brother Cockroach is even more of a ‘mom fan’ than I am, and Brother Nanfeng is like the dad. Daughter, if you get bullied in the future, don’t just take it. Just call for our Two Family Heads.]
Jiang Zhouzhou’s gaze remained fixed on the danmaku. Seeing the words “Two Family Heads,” she used a joyful smile to mask the stinging bitterness in her nose.
“Mhm! I get it now! If anyone bullies me again, I’ll immediately call for our parents to protect me…”
“With Brother Cockroach and Brother Nanfeng around, I feel totally safe.”
At that moment, someone noticed that the usually active “Xiaomi Congee” hadn’t chimed in for a while.
[Where’s the big boss Xiaomi Congee? What’s his status in the family?]
[Dian: Him? A pet, probably.]
[Chenguang is a Dog: A Simp, after all.]
[Xiaomi Congee: …]
[Hahahahahahaha!]
Jiang Zhouzhou laughed. “Baby Mizhou makes me feel super safe too!”
[Dian: What about me?]
Jiang Zhouzhou: “Emperor Dian, you may take your leave!”
[Dian: Fine, fine, fine. Then I’m leaving.]
He said he was leaving, but he didn’t actually exit the stream.
[Dian: Streamer, try to win me back, and maybe I won’t go.]
Jiang Zhouzhou ignored the drama king. She looked into the camera and said, “Let me sing a song for everyone! It’s another song I just learned. I think it’s perfect for the fans who support me.”
[Yay! Yay!]
[Zhouzhou has the best singing voice.]
[Headphones are on.]
A soothing accompaniment began to play.
She sat there quietly with a faint smile on her lips. For a fleeting moment, she gave off an ethereal vibe-the person before them was so beautiful that she felt almost unreal.
“Thank you for giving me simple companionship and warmth.”
“Thank you for shouldering my anxiety and the coldness in my heart…”
Her gentle voice rang out, carrying a girl’s most sincere emotions. It was like a cool breeze blowing through a canyon, or a trickling stream flowing over a restless heart.
“Please stay with me until the end, through the sweetness that follows the bitterness.”
“…”
