Just then, the system notification sounded.

[Seven-day mission has been assigned]

[Mission Objective: Win over a top-ranked female streamer in the livestream room and receive 3 million in donations over seven days. Rewards are cumulative upon completion, and there are hidden rewards!]

Bai Xiaoxuan, who was initially feeling down because of his father's difficult behavior, suddenly stood up.

Three million, and there's a hidden reward?

If this thing can really be realized, then I'll be a fairly well-known streamer!

At that moment, an official call came in from Douyin (TikTok's Chinese version).

Bai Xiaoxuan answered the phone immediately, and the other party spoke with great confidence.

"Hello, this is Zhao Jiajia, the person in charge of the Douyin platform. Based on the positive response to your live streams online, we at Douyin would like to invite a talented young person like you to join us and create even greater success together!"

The official team is about to start taking over everything!

Bai Xiaoxuan knew that no platform would miss out on a streamer who could make money, so they would be approached by these streamers before they had the absolute power to negotiate.

After all, the initiative is in the hands of the authorities, so all agreements will favor the platform.

"Mr. Bai, are you listening? I want you to find a suitable opportunity to sign a cooperation agreement with the platform. With your current popularity, as long as the platform arranges some partners for you, your future live broadcasts will be much smoother."

"I'm sorry, I'm not considering cooperation at the moment."

Bai Xiaoxuan refused to cooperate, which surprised Zhao Jiajia, the official operator on the other end of the phone. But to avoid mishearing, she tried to speak again.

"Excuse me, my signal wasn't very good just now, so I might not have heard you clearly. Did you mean you wanted to cooperate?"

They really know how to take the easy way out!

Bai Xiaoxuan didn't get angry when he heard what the woman said; instead, he smiled.

"I think you misheard me. What I just said was that there are no plans to sign a contract for the time being."

Even after confirming it, Zhao Jiajia was still unwilling to give up.

These days, any streamer with even a little talent is eager to make money, so why would anyone refuse the platform's arrangements?

Although she felt that Bai Xiaoxuan was being a bit arrogant, out of a professional call center operator's instinct, she adhered to the principle of not giving up and explained again with a smile.

"Sir, you may have misunderstood. Our Douyin platform isn't like those small, insignificant signing platforms. We won't restrict your freedom as streamers. Signing contracts is for a win-win situation. Look at our female streamer, Qing Shui Chu Fu Rong. Because of her contract, she's received a lot of advertising and promotional benefits. You're quite popular now, you could..."

"But I like the freedom of live streaming."

Bai Xiaoxuan calmly declined, saying, "The Douyin platform is indeed very satisfactory, and I have never said that I am unwilling to cooperate. It's just that I will not sign a contract for the time being."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Jiajia could barely keep her smile.

This is like someone who lives off a woman and then tries to take advantage of her!

They occupy the traffic and popularity of the Douyin platform, but refuse to give the platform any benefits!

Taking a deep breath, Zhao Jiajia suppressed the urge to curse and reminded him again.

"Sir, I've seen your profile. You're only in your early twenties, which is the perfect time for you to become a contracted broadcaster. If you refuse, you won't be eligible to participate in any major commercial invitations or annual parties hosted by famous celebrities in the future."

Ha! Trying to tie us down? These messy annual parties are just a way to make money, what does it have to do with me?

Bai Xiaoxuan understood, but he didn't leave her with no way out, so he turned the tables and launched a counterattack.

"I've already said, this is absolutely not about not wanting to cooperate. Douyin is my favorite live streaming platform, so why wouldn't I want to sign a contract? But the thing is, I'm quite capricious these days. Whether I stream or not depends on my mood. Do you think that would harm the platform's interests?"

These words left Zhao Jiajia speechless.

Indeed, if Bai Xiaoxuan suddenly refuses to work overtime while he is at the height of his popularity, the platform will suffer losses that are twice that of individual streamers.

From this perspective, Bai Xiaoxuan is indeed not suitable to participate in the signing process immediately.

However, missing the opportunity to sign a contract left Zhao Jiajia feeling extremely frustrated.

Well, this perfectly good opportunity was snatched away by this person.

Taking a deep breath, Zhao Jiajia adjusted her mindset and spoke gently.

"Okay, I'll relay your wishes to the platform. I hope you'll pay more attention to official benefits. I won't bother you any longer, goodbye!"

Even after the call was disconnected, Bai Xiaoxuan remained calm.

In situations like this, whoever backs down loses.

Now, he is more concerned about the mission objective of conquering the sister on the leaderboard.

The goal of three million is definitely not something to be taken lightly. If you choose to be second on the leaderboard, and the second-ranked player is capricious and the mission fails, then it will all be for nothing.

The top player on the leaderboard sometimes makes sarcastic remarks about himself, but you have to admit, he still manages to keep up with the spending spree when it matters most.

It seems the top-ranked person is a hidden big shot; following her is definitely the right thing to do!

Actually, Bai Xiaoxuan chose to pursue the first one because the top-ranked sister was too beautiful, and her looks and personality were within his selection range.

As the saying goes, "A woman three years older than you is a lucky match." Judging from her appearance, she should be around my age. Yes, she's the one!

Shi Yuqi had just finished dealing with a multi-million dollar order for her company, and couldn't wait to pick up her phone and enter the live stream room.

At that moment, she saw a text message from Bai Xiaoxuan.

"Don't rush ahead, there's a surprise for those who are late today."

Shi Yuqi chuckled softly, raising her eyebrows.

"Trying to surprise me? You're too green. Who do you think you are? I'm not going to listen to you!"

Just as she entered Bai Xiaoxuan's live stream, she suddenly received a private message gift of 9,999 red roses.

At this moment, Bai Xiaoxuan, dressed in a denim outfit and holding a microphone, said with a hint of helplessness in his eyes, "Sister, I told you to be obedient, but you wouldn't listen. So, your little brother can only give you a gift. No returns allowed. It's settled then, there are no tricks between us!"

Between us...

There's definitely a story behind that!

Fans in the live stream who enjoy watching the drama chuckled.

"Dude, are you with the number one on the leaderboard?"

"Don't talk nonsense. The top-ranked female fan is obviously aloof and cold. How could she possibly have anything going on with the streamer!"

"Hey nobody, what are you getting so excited about? You don't happen to like the streamer too, do you?"

Just then, Bai Xiaoxuan smiled faintly and spoke.

"I--"

Just as netizens were speculating, Bai Xiaoxuan made a sudden turn of events.

"I moved heaven and earth, but how could I not move you? I always believed in love, that miracles could happen, but that was just me deceiving myself! I moved heaven and earth, but how could I not move you? Even knowing there's no future, I'm still hopelessly devoted..."
