The Streamer's Allure: Top Fans Vying for Her Affection - Chapter 90
Chapter 90
At last, they arrived back at the entrance to the residential complex. Jiang Zhouzhou unbuckled her seat belt, opened the car door, got out, and shut the door behind her, the whole sequence smooth as flowing water.
“Goodbye, Brother Nanfeng. Goodbye, Dog Brother.”
She waved, then turned and left without the slightest reluctance, as if the two men behind her were terrifying monsters from a flood.
Watching her figure gradually recede into the distance, Gu Nanfeng said coldly, “Get out.”
Now that she was gone, he couldn’t be bothered to keep up the act.
Zhou Xian leaned lazily back in his seat and laughed. “Come on, Brother Nanfeng. A good man sees things through to the end. If you’re sending Buddha west, you send him all the way, right?”
Gu Nanfeng narrowed his eyes, staring at Zhou Xian’s face through the rearview mirror. “Do you want me to help you out of the car?”
Zhou Xian immediately raised both hands in surrender. “No, no. How could I dare trouble you to do it yourself?”
He got out of the car, and the vehicle left behind a trail of exhaust as it roared past him without the slightest mercy.
Zhou Xian shrugged. “Tsk. That petty Old Fox.”
Meanwhile, Jiang Zhouzhou returned home, and her tense body loosened all at once.
She picked up her glass, poured herself some water, and gulped down several big mouthfuls.
Just then, her phone screen suddenly lit up.
Jiang Zhouzhou thought it was a message from Gu Nanfeng or Zhou Xian, but the moment she opened WeChat, her little face heated up fast.
Brother Cockroach: [I’m going to Haishi on a business trip next week. Want to meet up?]
The girl, her face bright red, covered her cheeks with her hands as a shy sound slipped from her throat.
“Help… Why does everyone want to meet up?”
And the worst part was, Brother Cockroach…
He was the person she found it hardest to refuse!
…
A new livestream began.
[Big Rice: Wifey, I’m here~]
[I Love Drinking Porridge: You actually gave yourself a full weekend off during the best traffic hours of the week. How could you do this to us fans who were waiting so bitterly?]
[Exactly, exactly. I finally waited until the weekend to watch wifey stream, but what does she do? She runs off to rest too.]
[Zhouzhou’s Dog Brother has entered the livestream.]
“Welcome, Rice Wife, Baby Hezhou, Dog Brother…”
“I haven’t seen you all in two days. I missed everyone too!”
Jiang Zhouzhou smiled brightly at the camera. The complaints in the Danmaku instantly disappeared, every last person falling under the spell of her sweet smile.
She hadn’t put on makeup today. A brown floral silk scarf was tied into her long hair, which had been braided into a plait that hung over one side of her chest. A few stray strands curled by her ears, giving her whole appearance a faintly languid charm.
[Zhouzhou’s Dog Brother tipped the streamer Moonlit Reunion *1] (815 Fish Balls)
[Zhouzhou’s Dog Brother tipped the streamer Golden Autumn Laurel *1] (1688 Fish Balls)
[Zhouzhou’s Dog Brother tipped the streamer Jade Rabbit Pounding Medicine *1] (1111 Fish Balls)
[Zhouzhou’s Dog Brother tipped the streamer Sharing the Moon Across Thousands of Miles *1] (9999 Fish Balls)
On-screen, the gift effects were all ones she had never seen before.
Jiang Zhouzhou looked at the exquisite effects, her eyes lighting up. “Thank you for the gifts, Dog Brother. Are these new gifts from Shark?”
[Big Rice: Yeah, Mid-Autumn Festival limited gifts. But you have to get them through the lottery.]
[Big Rice: Dog Brother, to collect the whole set like this, you must’ve drawn a ton in the middle of the night, huh?]
[Zhouzhou’s Dog Brother: No need to draw. I have connections.]
[Big Rice: !]
[Dian: Wait, you can have connections for this too?]
[Yo, Emperor Dian got blasted out.]
[Dian: Bro, what kind of connections? I drew over a hundred thousand yesterday and still didn’t complete the set.]
[Zhouzhou’s Dog Brother: I’ll DM you.]
[Dian: Yes, sir.]
Seeing Dian and Dog Brother start chatting in the Danmaku, Jiang Zhouzhou couldn’t help secretly laughing.
One was cheeky, the other shameless. In a way, the two of them were cut from the same cloth.
Just then, a PK invitation popped up.
Jiang Zhouzhou hadn’t planned to start a PK the moment she went live, but when she saw the invite was from Banana Pie, she clicked accept.
The connection went through, and Banana Pie’s bright, hearty voice came through. “Hi, Zhouzhou! You were gone these past two days, and I missed you so much!”
Jiang Zhouzhou smiled and greeted her. “Sister Xiangxiang, what made you suddenly want to PK with me?”
Banana Pie spread her hands helplessly. “No choice. There are too few people willing to play with me now.”
From her tone, Jiang Zhouzhou could hear a trace of resentment.
Banana Pie went on by herself, “When you’re at your peak, those people will do everything they can to suck up to you. But when you fall… they run faster than anyone.”
Jiang Zhouzhou could tell she was in a terrible mood, but she didn’t know exactly what had happened.
[Sister Banana, what’s wrong?]
[I Love Drinking Porridge: After Brother Monkey left, President A also ran off to someone else’s stream. Sister Banana’s position is really awkward now.]
[Right? Not long ago, she was still Shark’s most popular top beauty streamer, and now she went cold just like that.]
[Big Rice: Why did President A leave? Didn’t he always support Sister Banana?]
[Insider gossip says the Guild had something to do with it.]
[I Love Drinking Porridge: Isn’t Sister Banana the number one streamer in New Star Guild? Then last week, New Star Guild signed a new student girl and had Sister Banana help guide the newbie. But while she was guiding her, that newbie seduced her Big Brother away.]
[Uh, Sister Banana must be furious. Losing two Big Brothers in such a short time-who could take that?]
[Nothing you can do. Big Brothers are free to watch whoever they want and send gifts to whoever they want.]
Jiang Zhouzhou glanced over the Danmaku and finally understood the full story. She comforted her, “A low point is only temporary. I believe Sister Xiangxiang will definitely return to the top.”
Banana Pie smiled as if she didn’t care. “Sister Zhou, out of all the new streamers… you’re the one I like the most. If someone has to replace me and climb back to the peak, I hope that person… is you.”
At her words, Jiang Zhouzhou’s heart trembled hard.
Her reason for becoming a Female Streamer was very simple: to make money and get by.
Although after spending time with everyone, she had gradually come to enjoy streaming, as well as the fans who supported her…
Still…
She had never imagined herself reaching the very top of this path.
To her… it was like a road far beyond her reach.
[Big Rice: Sister Banana really thinks highly of our Zhouzhou. But… I also believe Zhouzhou wifey can definitely climb to the top.]
[I Love Drinking Porridge: To be honest, I believe in the streamer’s ability too. Right now, there isn’t a single Female Streamer on Shark who has become a five-star major streamer in such a short time. Only our streamer has done it.]
[Zhouzhou’s Dog Brother: Does the streamer want to become Annual Champion?]
[Dian: Annual Champion? It’s not impossible.]
[Big Rice: I think it’s possible too.]
Before Jiang Zhouzhou could even speak, she saw everyone in the Danmaku talking about the “Annual Champion” and quickly waved her hands.
“No, no, no. I haven’t thought that far ahead yet. Honestly, I’m already very satisfied with things the way they are. I just want to chat and sing with everyone every day. As for anything further in the future… I haven’t considered it yet.”
[Zhouzhou’s Dog Brother: In that case, let’s set a small goal first.]
When Jiang Zhouzhou saw Dog Brother’s Danmaku, she asked curiously, “What small goal?”
[Zhouzhou’s Dog Brother: First place in the Guild Competition.]
