Unfortunately, Su Ji did not get his hint. She furrowed her brows and said, “can I tip myself?”
Pan Lian was sweating. “Of course not. Besides, we don’t get all our money back. The platform will take a cut.”
“I see. Then let’s just take it one step at a time.”
Pei Huai’s eyes were almost tearing up from staring at her, but Su Ji did not look in his direction.
“…”
Such a good opportunity was in front of her and she ignored it.
He could have sent her all the way to the finals if she asked.
**
One week pa.s.sed by and the school welcomed the first round of the compet.i.tion.
No one dared to challenge Zhou Xuefang. Her opponent was a randomly matched freshman.
Pan Lian’s luck was not so good. Her opponent was a cla.s.sical dancer who had won an award.
However, the most antic.i.p.ated performance was the confrontation between Meng Na and Su Ji.
The preliminaries were scheduled to start at 8 pm on Sat.u.r.day.
There were still a few days left, and the contestants had already begun to livestream every day to increase their popularity.
At noon, Su Ji walked out of the music room and headed to the main entrance.
“Are you going out for dinner again?” Pan Lian asked curiously. You’ve been going out to eat every day recently. Can you tell me who you’re going out with?”
“He’s the boss of Tedian Organic Milk,” Su Ji replied.
Pan Lian burst out laughing, “you’re so funny!”
Su Ji was speechless.
Pei Huai had been coming to her for lunch almost every day.
Su Ji guessed that he probably wanted to give her a big job.
However, she told Pei Huai that she was going to do a livestream this afternoon. The compet.i.tion was coming up, so she wanted to test the waters first.
Pei Huai said yes.
In fact, he had agreed very quickly because he thought he could also appear on camera.
However, she entered a private room.
He had been sent far away and could only sit opposite her. Su Ji even warned him not to make a sound.
“…”
It was Su Ji’s first livestream, and she did not announce it nor pay to boost her channel. The sudden livestream shocked her fans.
[F*ck! She is live!]
The top of the screen showed, “A Golden Lotus is currently streaming”.
[Are you singing? I want to hear your rendition of Meng Na’s song!]
[I won’t sing today. I’m doing a mukbang.]
As soon as she said that, the number of people watching decreased from 1 to 0.
[The user has left.]
Su Ji was speechless.
The Great Shang’s devil concubine was doing a mukbang, and no one wanted to watch.
Due to the popularity of her song adaptation, Su Ji had about 700,000 followers at the moment.
Therefore, even though she didn’t announce it, a few minutes later, hundreds of people were watching.
[I just came from another livestream. Kyokushin’s students have been very active recently.]
[This is the first time I’ve seen someone livestream without filters! Your bare face is really pretty!]
[Are you eating alone? Do you eat this much every day?]
Su Ji would answer most of the comments.
Pei Huai sat opposite her and watched Su Ji bicker with the netizens. His face gradually darkened.
Was this how she ate with important clients?
A moment later, Pei Huai’s gaze fell on the spice bottle next to Su Ji’s hand, and the corners of his lips curled up.
Then, he stood up and took the bottle of seasoning.
His beautiful hand appeared on Su Ji’s camera.
On the sleeve, there was an exquisite crystal cufflink hinting at the ident.i.ty of the owner.
The livestream room, which had been calm just a moment ago, instantly boiled over.
[I saw something!]
[The hand was so beautiful! Whose is it?]
Although Su Ji wasn’t very popular, the netizens were good at digging up celebrity gossip.
In particular, someone called “Su Ji’s daddy fan” had the biggest reaction.
[Can those in an idol group date?]
[There are many temptations in society, especially for girls who are still studying. But when you step out into society, you’ll know that those men are not good enough for you!]
Su Ji’s calm and composed expression cracked a little. She glanced at Pei Huai and saw that he was sprinkling seasoning on the plate with a normal expression.
“It’s…it’s the waiter’s.”
To avoid making things worse, she decided to lie.
But would Pei Huai let her get away with that so easily?
A few minutes later, the same hand brought a plate of cut beef to her.
[Which restaurant? The waiter is also responsible for cutting the steak?]
Su Ji’s mouth twitched .”G.o.dare’s service is really good. You can ask the waiter to cut it for you.”
However, as soon as she finished speaking, a plate of peeled prawns appeared in front of her.
[No way! They even peel prawns?]
“Su Ji’s daddy fan” was anxious.
[Turn on the rear camera and let me see!]
Fortunately, there weren’t many people watching, so Su Ji turned off the livestream.
Pei Huai’s expression showed that his scheme had succeeded. He smiled and asked, “why aren’t you livestreaming anymore?”
“I’ll eat with you first,” Su Ji said through gritted teeth.
“Order whatever you want.” Pei Huai nodded in satisfaction.
Su Ji stared at him for a few seconds.
Meng Na, who used her alternate account to lurk, left Su Ji’s stream.
Recently, she had been live streaming every day and had at least tens of thousands of viewers. However, Su Ji’s livestream only had a few hundred people, including her.
She was sure to win on Sat.u.r.day.
**
In the blink of an eye, it was Sat.u.r.day, the night of the livestream.
Zhou Xuefang was broadcasting the rehearsal. She had already arrived at the danceroom an hour in advance with her full makeup on.
Pan Lian livestreamed her dance. After changing her clothes, she also set off.
Before she left, she looked at Su Ji. “Nana has already gone to the recording studio. The sound system there is good. Do you want to book one?”
As everyone knew, the recording studio had the best equipment, which could make an ordinary voice sound good in an instant.
However, Su Ji did not need it.
“No, thanks.” She curled her lips.
There was not much time until the compet.i.tion.
Pan Lian looked at Su Ji, who had no intention of going out, and asked in confusion, “yhen, where are you going to do the livestream? Where’s your sound system? How come I don’t see anything?”
The next second, Su Ji flipped over and sat on the railing of their dormitory’s balcony.
Her back was leaning against the wall, one leg on the railing, and the other hanging loosely.
The moonlight shone on her body, illuminating her silhouette.
Just like that, Su Ji casually raised the phone to her lips, and a charming arc appeared on her face. It was so beautiful that it was unreal.
“I’ll just do it here and sing to the phone,” she said.
Pan Lian’s eyes were wide open, but after hearing her words, she regained her senses.
A live broadcast in the dormitory?
An acapella?
Although the enemy was very powerful, she should not give up so easily!
