Chapter 56: Encountering the Melon Maker While Eating Melon
[Xiao Yu:]
A little dumpling: "Little Yu, I'm about to have a PK with Little Jiu, why don't you wait a bit before I challenge you?"
[Xiao Yu: Little Jiu? Why don't you ask Little Jiu if she wants to play together?]
A little ball thought about it and decided that this method would work.
A little ball of fluff: "Little Sister Jiu, Xiao Yu also wants to join our PK, should we invite her?"
Tuan Tuan still had to consider Xiao Jiu's side, since they were in the same guild, and she had a task assigned by the guild to take the newbie Xiao Jiu with her today.
Xiao Jiu didn't know Xiao Yu. In fact, she didn't know many streamers at all, and she only met them after playing PK battles together. She thought about it and decided it wasn't a bad thing. She could just consider it making friends. If she knew more streamers, she wouldn't have trouble finding people to play PK battles with later.
Xiao Jiu nodded. "Sure, let's go together. It's more fun with more people."
Seeing that Xiao Jiu had agreed, a little ball of fluff pulled Xiao Yu in. But as Xiao Yu was being pulled in, another person was pulled in as well.
A little ball of fluff was a bit unhappy to see someone else come in. She only agreed to bring Xiaoyu, and Xiaoyu didn't tell her that she had brought someone with her.
Xiao Yu didn't notice Tuan Tuan's expression. To be honest, the relationship between the streamers was generally acceptable on the surface, since they were all doing PK battles together to make money.
As long as there's no poaching between streamers, they can generally act like good friends. When they're playing PvP, they like to invite those with votes to help them carry the votes.
Actually, she wanted to hang out with this newcomer who's been getting a lot of attention lately. First, she wanted to find out more about her, and second, she'd heard from gossip accounts that one of her wealthy friends was having a falling out with her.
This new female streamer clearly doesn't know how to maintain a relationship with a "big brother" (a male streamer who is popular with older men), nor does she understand the benefits of having a "big brother." Like some other streamers, I wanted to try and win her over.
This is still a Silver streamer, while I'm already Diamond. It took quite a long time to reach Diamond, but I finally made it.
Besides, she couldn't blame anyone else for not being able to win over her older brother. As long as she did it discreetly enough and didn't get discovered, it's perfectly normal for her older brother to give money to one person instead of another.
As for the person she brought in, those who enjoy gossip will find that he looks quite familiar.
Xiao Yu also brought in a girl, named Xiao Yu Potato Head.
[Oh dear, Xiaoyu brought in a little fish; their names sound the same.]
Xiao Yu: "I thought it would be more fun with more people. This is my sister, Little Fish, hehehe."
Xiao Yu and Little Fish Potato Head are friends, but perhaps it's just that Little Fish Potato Head considers Xiao Yu a friend; Xiao Yu doesn't actually have that name.
Xiaoyu was introduced to live streaming by Xiaoyu Tudou Naotou. Back then, when she was working, her salary wasn't even enough to cover her monthly expenses.
Later, it was Xiaoyu Tudou Nao that felt sorry for her and brought her into the live stream. Her original name was Chuyi. At that time, she only knew about Xiaoyu and that big brother's affair, and she even helped a lot in the process.
After Xiaoyu left the internet, she changed her name and, riding on Xiaoyu's popularity, poached many of Xiaoyu's former "big brothers" for herself. At that time, Xiaoyu was only focused on her husband and thought Xiaoyu meant well.
Later, when she was short of money, Xiaoyu kindly lent her some, so Xiaoyu still feels that Xiaoyu is a sister who is truly good to her.
But Xiaoyu didn't think that way. She also knew that recently, because of Xiaoyu Tudou's return to the entertainment industry, many entertainment accounts had talked about it, and many people were watching the drama unfold.
Their relationship was quite controversial back then, with some giving their blessings and others being skeptical. Now, only about a year later, they've divorced, attracting a lot of onlookers and generating a lot of buzz.
Just like in the entertainment industry, being famous for both good and bad is still fame; it brings traffic, and for them, it all comes down to money, whether it's good or bad.
Who can say that among these people who came to watch the spectacle, there won't be someone who takes a liking to her? She's just divorced, still young and beautiful. Maybe after the divorce, she'll have a different feeling about herself.
On the internet, even if you're divorced and have kids, people will still like you. Do you think all the guys who spend money on your account are single? No, many of them have families. Even divorced people still have admirers.
Little Fish Potato Head: "Tuanzi, Xiao Jiu, hello there!"
Looking at the streamer's name, Xiao Jiu felt like she vaguely remembered seeing gossip about her while watching videos.
A round, fluffy little fish: "Hello, little fish! Oh my, your names are so similar! You two are definitely best friends, even your names are the same!"
Although the little ball was unhappy, it couldn't just throw a tantrum and disconnect from the connection, otherwise it would seem petty in front of everyone.
Xiaoyu: "Of course! Xiaoyu and I are best friends. I know everything about her."
Xiaoyu is still promoting their friendship, and her last sentence, while seemingly showing off their good friendship, is actually telling those who want to know the inside story that she also knows the truth.
Some people will rationally observe the gossip, while others love to get to the bottom of things. If they can't get the answer from Xiaoyu Tudou's live stream, Xiaoyu will know it too, and someone will definitely come to her live stream to ask.
Whether she says it or not, or whether she says something unintentionally, she can attract a lot of people.
Little Fish Potato Head: "It's okay, little dumpling. If you find it hard to distinguish, you can call me Little Potato. That way it won't be repetitive."
Xiao Jiu didn't say anything. She was mainly there to observe, but now she'd run into someone she already knew who was involved in the gossip, which she found quite interesting.
I think I saw this little fish-shaped potato head in a melon-eating post before, but I'm not sure if it's her.
[Xiao Jiu: I've eaten there too, it must have been her.]
At this moment, Xiao Jiu felt that it wouldn't be appropriate to discuss gossip about other people with her fans, so she could only secretly type in her own chat to answer questions from her fans in her live stream.
Wow, I didn't realize my sister was such a gossipmonger!
Who doesn't love gossip?
I love gossiping, but how come I've never heard of this little fish's gossip?
[Assistant Yuzu: Babies, let's discuss this privately, otherwise if their fans see this, they might think we're stirring up trouble.]
The assistant, Youzi, knew that the streamer she was managing was a complete newbie, which is why she always paid close attention to the comments from the fans in the live stream.
Xiao Jiu might not know, but she herself certainly did. If fans started discussing it in the public chat, and others later accused their streamer of inciting fans to stir up trouble, that would be problematic. It's better to stop this behavior from the start; if they want to gossip, they can discuss it privately.
