The Streamer's Allure: Top Fans Vying for Her Affection - Chapter 67
Chapter 67
After tonight’s stream ended, Jiang Zhouzhou clipped the recording of the four Super Emperors being activated in her room and posted it to her Shark account. She captioned it: “Being a Guardian is my luck, but having all of you is my greatest fortune…”
The background music was an a cappella version of her singing “One Day You Will Appear by My Side.”
“You said the best person would come to my side, and at this moment, I think so too.”
“You will eventually see me at my most beautiful~ appearing~”
In the video, the girl’s smile was bright and radiant, her clear eyes sparkling like starlight, just as she sang in her song… her most beautiful self…
Not long after the video was posted, it received countless likes and comments from fans.
[Sexy Mother Cockroach: You deserve it.]
[Zhouzhou’s Dog Brother: You deserve it.]
[Nanfeng: You deserve it.]
[Dian: Breaking the chain starts with me.]
[Big Rice: Zhouzhou wifey deserves all the best things in the world.]
Looking at the replies from the top-liked comments, a sweet smile spread across Jiang Zhouzhou’s lips.
This feeling of being “loved”…
It was true happiness!
She wanted to hold onto it forever.
At that moment, Gu Nanfeng was playing that edited video on his phone. The girl’s gentle singing echoed in his ears like a lover’s whisper. The lyrics, in particular, touched his heart.
“You said the best person would come to my side…”
He exited the video and instinctively opened his WeChat chat log with Jiang Zhouzhou.
Gu Nanfeng: [I’m free this Saturday.]
Jiang Zhouzhou was searching for streaming material on her phone when she suddenly saw the notification pop up.
The name “Gu Nanfeng” jumped into her vision, making her freeze for a moment.
“Gu Nanfeng… Nanfeng…”
She subconsciously overlapped the two people every time.
“Could they be the same person?”
Jiang Zhouzhou reread Gu Nanfeng’s message several times. She knew he was referring to the last time they met when he helped her out of a jam, and she had offered to treat him to dinner.
Jiang Zhouzhou: [What do you like to eat, Mr. Gu?]
She needed to ask in advance so she could search for a suitable restaurant.
Gu Nanfeng: [Anything is fine.]
Jiang Zhouzhou: …
Jiang Zhouzhou: [Then how about the same restaurant as last time?]
After all, Gu Nanfeng’s status and position clearly indicated he was wealthy and influential. Jiang Zhouzhou didn’t feel comfortable being too casual.
Gu Nanfeng: [Okay.]
His replies were truly as sparse as gold.
Jiang Zhouzhou: [Then it’s a date! Is Saturday at 6:00 PM alright?]
Gu Nanfeng: [Mn. I’ll pick you up.]
Seeing this reply, Jiang Zhouzhou’s fair face suddenly flushed red.
Jiang Zhouzhou: [No need, it’s very convenient for me to take a taxi.]
Gu Nanfeng: [It’s on the way.]
Jiang Zhouzhou: …
Fine! That excuse again.
Jiang Zhouzhou: [Then I’ll trouble you! See you Saturday.]
Jiang Zhouzhou: [(〃’▽’〃)]
Gu Nanfeng: [(〃’▽’〃)]
Seeing Gu Nanfeng’s reply, Jiang Zhouzhou’s lip twitched slightly.
Her first impression of Gu Nanfeng was that he was cold and unapproachable… yet he was the one who took the initiative every time, all while maintaining a proper distance that never felt intrusive.
After ending the conversation with Gu Nanfeng, Jiang Zhouzhou opened her Shark app.
After a moment of hesitation, she found “Nanfeng” in her friend list and sent the message she had drafted.
Century Egg and Pork Congee: [Brother Nanfeng, would you like to add me on WeChat?]
She was never one to take the initiative. Aside from Xiaomi Congee, Brother Cockroach, and Big Rice, who had sent her their WeChat IDs first, she hadn’t added anyone else.
After sending the message to Nanfeng, she sent it to the others as well.
After joining the Guild, her dedicated Operator had told her that she needed to learn how to maintain her relationships with every Big Brother. It was best to add them on WeChat and thank them individually after every stream to make them feel valued.
If she didn’t maintain these connections… a Big Brother could easily be poached by another streamer.
However, Jiang Zhouzhou didn’t like having too much contact with them in private. She felt that keeping things as they were now was… just right.
Dian was the first one to send over his WeChat ID.
Dian: [Not resting yet?]
Century Egg and Pork Congee: [Mm, currently maintaining my Big Brothers.]
Dian: [Huh?]
Century Egg and Pork Congee: [Added you. Don’t let me down. Goodnight.]
Dian: […]
Wait… who “maintains” a Big Brother like that?
Exiting the chat with Dian, Jiang Zhouzhou received another reply.
Zhouzhou’s Dog Brother: [My WeChat ID is my phone number. You already have it.]
Jiang Zhouzhou’s eyes flickered. She silently found the number saved under the name “Zhou Xian,” then copied and pasted it to add him on WeChat.
His profile picture was a photo of himself. That aggressive face of his was strikingly handsome, radiating a wild and unrestrained energy.
After Jiang Zhouzhou sent the friend request, he accepted almost instantly.
Zhou Xian: [Don’t push yourself too hard. Get some rest early.]
There were no extra words. It was as if he knew her “quiet as a clam” personality and ended the conversation directly.
Jiang Zhouzhou: [Goodnight.]
Zhou Xian: [Goodnight.]
The last one to reply was Nanfeng, who had been Jiang Zhouzhou’s ultimate goal all along.
She copied the WeChat ID he sent and searched for it. To her surprise…
The search result showed an unfamiliar account named “Nanfeng,” not someone she already had in her contacts.
“Was I wrong?”
His profile picture was a night view from a window. The lights outside were brilliant, which only served to highlight the loneliness and desolation of the room inside.
Young people rarely used such photos as profile pictures. It was no wonder countless people on Shark speculated that Nanfeng was an old man in his fifties.
Jiang Zhouzhou silently clicked to add him, and he accepted quickly.
Jiang Zhouzhou sent a simple greeting: [Good evening, Brother Nanfeng.]
Nanfeng: [Mm. Don’t stay up late. Get some rest early.]
He sounded like a parent disciplining a child. Jiang Zhouzhou subconsciously imagined his tone of voice and a serious expression as he said it.
Jiang Zhouzhou: [Mm-hmm, I got it! Goodnight, Brother Nanfeng.]
Nanfeng: [Goodnight.]
Like Zhou Xian, he kept things brief and didn’t push the conversation further. This kind of interaction was very comfortable.
After ending the chat, Jiang Zhouzhou secretly clicked on Nanfeng’s WeChat Moments.
However, his Moments were set to only show the last three days, and there was nothing there.
Then she checked Zhou Xian’s Moments. It was filled with photos of drinking and street racing, but…
A familiar figure appeared in many of the photos, looking very much like Chenguang, the streamer she had battled before.
During the stream, Chenguang’s beauty filters had been turned up so high that his features looked distorted. But in the photos on Zhou Xian’s Moments… the man looked handsome with a bright, sunny smile, a complete contrast to how he appeared on camera.
Finally, she took a look at Dian’s Moments. To her surprise…
Game screenshot, game screenshot, game screenshot…
It was nothing but game screenshots!
Although Jiang Zhouzhou didn’t understand games, she could see that the stats in Dian’s screenshots were all brilliant, with him being the MVP in every single match.
“I didn’t expect him to be a pro gamer.”
Considering his snarky, motor-mouthed personality, he probably developed that skill while gaming!
