Chapter 104 Another Battle

Ji Wanqing's question was cleverly phrased, sounding like casual conversation yet subtly probing.

Zhou Xubai naturally knew what she wanted to ask. It seemed that she was busy with the live broadcast when the guests were introduced and did not see it, which was why she asked this question.

He hesitated for a moment before typing his reply.

[I've had some social engagements these past few days.]

Instead of directly addressing the question, he used vague language to deflect the issue.

【Huh? Didn't you say you wanted to go last time?】

Did they send someone else instead?

[I thought one of the guests was quite handsome, and I was wondering if he might be the "blank" guy, but it turns out he wasn't?]

Looking at his reply, Ji Wanqing's doubts only deepened instead of being resolved.

A blank answer, which avoids the main point, seems more like a cover-up.

But she quickly realized that she was still live streaming and couldn't let her personal emotions show.

She took a deep breath, smiled again, and responded in a playful tone.

"Okay, okay, I guessed wrong! Brother Blank has kept his mystery well! Anyway, thank you for your continued support, Brother Blank!"

She quickly steered the conversation back to the live stream content, "Okay, let's not talk about that anymore. I suddenly remembered that we can customize the price of the gaming companion service. Let me take a look..."

Ji Wanqing was muttering to herself as she opened the gaming companion backend to study it when Qingye also came in.

[Qingye is giving away 10 Starships] (99,990 Boiling Point Coins)

Holy crap, 100,000 right off the bat.

Our son is a man of few words and ruthless actions.

Ji Wanqing was studying how to adjust the pricing for the companionship service when Qingye's unexpected generous gift made her look up instantly, a surprised smile spreading across her face.

"Welcome, Kiyono-nii! Thank you so much! You've given us so much as soon as we came in, thank you so much!"

Kiyono: [I'm sorry I wasn't here these past few days.]

[Was it originally compensation?]

[Since you're spoiling me like this, Qingtian, you should just give in.]

[Blank Spaceship x10 Free] (99990 Boiling Point Coins)

[Our Blank Master is still here!!! They must have all submitted to our Sunny Day!]

[Blank Guy: It's just 100,000? I'll go for it!]

Ji Wanqing paused for a second, not understanding why the two of them were secretly competing again.

But she quickly realized what she was doing and continued to thank them with a smile.

"Thank you so much for the starship, Blank! You guys are all so kind, I'm really touched. But we didn't even play any PvP, so you didn't have to go to all that trouble..."

[A small token of appreciation for your hard work these past few days.]

Kiyono: [Keep it.]

Seeing this, Ji Wanqing knew she couldn't refuse, so she could only smile and agree.

"Okay, okay, thank you both! I appreciate your kind gesture, thank you so much!"

She chose to steer the conversation back to the main topic, "But our main task today is to study this new feature, how to set it up reasonably..."

She looked around the gaming companion section and found that most of the games were priced at tens or hundreds of yuan. The top-tier games, which were played by well-known streamers and gaming companions, were priced at three to five thousand yuan per session.

She was a little conflicted. With her current number of followers, she definitely couldn't price it too low, otherwise she wouldn't be able to handle the workload.

But if the price is too high, she's afraid no one will buy it.

Just as she was struggling with this issue, the big shot spoke up directly.

Kiyono [10,000.]

[Did Zai Shen set this price based on his own market value?]

[Please, don't raise the price so much! I haven't even played with Qingtian yet QAQ Can you raise the price after I've played with her?]

[High prices are fine, even on sunny days people need to eat; just leave some high-quality bosses.]

Ji Wanqing was stunned when she saw the comments, "Brother Qingye, what you..."

She smiled helplessly, "Let's not go for it, ten thousand seems a bit too high... How about I set it at 5,000?"

Finally! The day has arrived when we can customize prices on sunny days!

[I'm a long-time fan! I've watched the price of Sunny Day rise from 25!]

【5000 is great! 5000 is wonderful! Our Sunny Day is worth this price!】

Kiyono: [That's fine too. If you think it's okay, then this price is fine. Don't go too low, or you'll be exhausted.]

[Guardian Card x1 awarded at the finish line] (1 Boiling Point Coin)

Finish line [I think it's okay.]

Seeing that the big shots had all agreed, Ji Wanqing directly entered 5000 in the price field and said.

"Welcome, Brother Finish Line! Thank you for your guardian card!"

After setting it up, she breathed a sigh of relief, "All done! The event is over, and now I can resume playing games with clients. Boss, I'll place an order."

As soon as she finished speaking, several orders popped up in the backend.

Blank, Finish Line, Clear Field, and Expired Relationship each placed several orders.

Finish Line [I made plans to go racing with friends later, so I can't go today. Here's the order form; wishing you a successful launch with your custom pricing strategy.]

[This expired boss is back again. Where was he at the carnival event?]

Expired relationship [I was a bit busy before.]

Seeing the atmosphere, Ji Wanqing quickly tried to smooth things over, "It's alright, everyone's busy with their own things."

Then she raised her hands above her head to make a big heart shape, her smile growing even brighter, "Thank you for the flyer, brother at the finish line. Be careful while speeding!"

After witnessing the driving skills and equipment at the finish line, she had no doubt about his "speeding" and sincerely reminded him to be careful.

Finish line [Yes, I'll be going now.]

Seeing the backend instantly filled with orders, Ji Wanqing felt a warm glow in her heart and smiled sweetly at the camera.

"Thank you all for your support! But for the expired customer... I remember you don't like playing with others, so how about I save you a spot for next time?"

Ji Wanqing really didn't want to play with him. Although he apologized last time, Ji Wanqing still felt uncomfortable.

But ultimately, he's the boss, so it's always better not to make things too ugly.

Blank: [It's okay, I don't play either. I've taken the order, it's a freebie for you.]

Expired relationship: [No problem, let's play League of Legends.]

[Regarding self-care~]

Seeing that he didn't make things difficult for her this time, Ji Wanqing had no reason to refuse. She smiled and nodded, asking Qingye for his opinion.

"So, Mr. Qingye, are we forming an alliance tonight?"

Kiyono: [No objections, just pull me in.]

Ji Wanqing quickly pulled the two people into the team, and then heard the expired relationship speak on the microphone.

"I'll invite another friend."

"Okay." Ji Wanqing responded decisively. It wasn't an unreasonable request for the boss to bring others along, since there were still seats available.

The process of adding people after the expiration date was very fast; the person joined as soon as he finished speaking, with the ID "Boiling Point_Crab Meat".

[Isn't the crab meat good? Isn't it also a well-known escort service on Boiling Point?]

[This... Is the boss worried that Sunny Day won't be able to handle it, or is he worried that Kid God won't be able to handle it? He even ordered a companion to play with him.]

It's not uncommon for someone to bring an extra client along; Ji Wanqing herself had even booked one. She didn't show any surprise and spoke up naturally.

"Shall we start now?"

"Let's open it." Expired Relationship and Kiyono said in unison.

Ji Wanqing clicked "Start Matchmaking" and was quickly matched with an opponent.

Qingye and Guoqi Guanli both chose the ADC position as soon as they entered the game. Neither of them locked a hero, and everyone thought it was going to be another fierce battle.

The expired relationship spoke up, "I'll go with Crab Meat Bun, you can go play somewhere else."

[No way, is this person polite? Is this the tone of a teammate in a game?]

[Is this also an order to get our attention?]
