Chapter 22 Preparing to go to the group broadcast

After taking a bath, Su Jiaojiao changed into loose white loungewear.

She tied her hair in a low ponytail, revealing her delicate collarbone, and walked into the kitchen. She put on a bear-patterned apron and began preparing dinner.

She enjoys cooking, especially Western food.

It has a great sense of ritual and accomplishment.

She opened the refrigerator; the ingredients inside were very fresh, prepared in advance.

She first took out the steak and marinated it with salt, black pepper, and olive oil, her movements fluid and elegant.

Next, I chopped some potatoes and mashed them, then washed some cherry tomatoes and lettuce to make a vegetable salad.

The kitchen lights were soft, illuminating her stunning profile. Her long eyelashes cast small shadows beneath her eyelids, and her nose twitched slightly, making her look exceptionally captivating as she focused intently.

The dumpling was chattering away in her mind:

"Host, the food you made looks delicious!"

If Boss Lu and Boss Jiang saw this, they'd definitely be vying to come and freeload off me again!

"Don't talk nonsense, I'll eat it myself."

Su Jiaojiao responded in her mind as she fried the steak.

The steak was pan-fried to medium-rare, golden brown on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside. She placed the steak on a plate, drizzled it with black pepper sauce, and served it with mashed potatoes and a vegetable salad. A refined Western meal was ready.

She sat at the table, taking small bites of her steak; it tasted quite good.

Just then, the phone rang again. It was a message from Lu Jinyuan, along with a photo of his dinner—a table full of exquisite dishes.

[Lu Jinyuan]: Jiaojiao, I'm having dinner. Have you eaten? If not, I'll have the chef make you some and send it over.

Su Jiaojiao had just replied, "I'm eating Western food that I made myself."

Jiang Yi's message also came—a video of him playing the piano. In the background, you could see his dinner in front of him: just a simple bowl of noodles.

[Jiang Yi]: Jiaojiao, I'm eating noodles, and I suddenly feel that your cooking is still the best. Next time I visit your house, can you cook for me?

Su Jiaojiao looked at the two messages and shook her head helplessly.

She knew that Lu Jinyuan had deliberately sent those exquisite dishes to make her envious; while Jiang Yi was using a show of weakness to gain her sympathy. She saw through their little schemes perfectly clearly.

After finishing dinner, Su Jiaojiao cleaned up the kitchen, sat on the sofa, and opened the system panel.

The love value has increased again today, reaching a total of 38 million.

Tuanzi's voice rang out: "Host, your affection level has increased again!"

Should I exchange for appearance points? Or maybe some skill points?

"Do not redeem for now"

Su Jiaojiao said

"I want to improve my livestreaming skills first; the group broadcasting isn't ready yet."

Tuanzi immediately said:

"Host, speaking of group broadcasting, I've found you an amazing teacher!"

As soon as it finished speaking, a streamer's profile popped up on the system panel.

[Nickname of the streamer]: Yueyue.

[Real Name]: Su Yue

[Number of Followers]: 47 million

[Platform Tags]: Top-tier group broadcaster, all-around talent, top-grossing group broadcaster

[Introduction]: A leading figure in the group broadcasting field on the Yinfu platform, with numerous apprentices under his wing. His broadcasting style is diverse, and his live streams consistently attract over 100,000 viewers. He has repeatedly topped the platform's revenue rankings.

Su Jiaojiao looked at the information, her eyes widening slightly:

47 million followers? That's amazing!

She only has 16 million followers, which is nothing compared to Su Yue.

"Of course!"

Tuanzi said proudly

"Su Yue is a top influencer in the live streaming industry. Among her apprentices, the female group has the most fans with 7 million, and the male group has the most fans with 10 million!"

Moreover, she's about to organize two teams to stream and generate revenue, one male and one female team, which will allow them to reset their positions at the perfect time!

"But she's so amazing, would she take me as her apprentice?"

Su Jiaojiao hesitated.

Although she has 16 million followers, it's still not enough compared to Su Yue.

"Don't worry, host, I've already made the arrangements for you!"

Tuanzi patted her chest and said

"I sent her a private message using system privileges, and she has replied, saying she wants to talk to you privately."

Just as Su Jiaojiao was about to ask something, a friend request popped up on WeChat.

The note is "Monthly".

She received approval for her application, and the other party quickly sent her a message.

【月月】: You are Su Jiaojiao?

I often see you on this platform. Your songs are great, and you're very beautiful.

Su Jiaojiao quickly replied:

"Hello, Master Su Yue, I am Su Jiaojiao."

I really like your group broadcasting. I'd like to become your apprentice, learn your broadcasting techniques, make more friends, and experience the atmosphere of group broadcasting.

【月月.】: Oh?

You have 16 million followers and a lot of supportive fans, why would you want to do group streaming? Besides, with your abilities, you could easily develop your own business.

Su Jiaojiao looked at the message and replied carefully:

"I think group live streaming is very interesting; it allows me to interact with everyone, and I also want to improve my live streaming skills. I know you are a senior in the group live streaming community, and I'm sure I can improve quickly by learning from you. Don't worry, I won't cause you any trouble."

Su Yue remained silent for a while before replying to the message.

[Yueyue.]: I have heard of you.

Each live stream consistently attracts over 100,000 viewers, and the performers are quite talented.

He is indeed a good prospect.

Since you've shown such sincerity, how could I possibly refuse?

Su Jiaojiao was overjoyed when she saw the message and quickly replied:

"Thank you, Master Su Yue! I will definitely study hard!"

【月月.】: Hmm.

By the way, all my apprentices will have to change their pseudonyms to their own names, like "Dianyue Butterfly." For example, you'll be called "Jiaojiao.Yue" from now on. Can you accept that?

"Sure, no problem!"

Su Jiaojiao quickly agreed.

[Yueyue.]: Also, we'll be doing a ranking competition soon. After it ends, there will be separate men's and women's teams, and they'll stand in front of the live broadcast stage according to their rankings.

When you play the positioning competition with them, you can take your place according to your ranking.

[Yueyue.]: By the way...

Your big fan won't mind if you join the group broadcast, right?

After all, group broadcasts require interaction with team members, which may cause some misunderstandings.

Su Jiaojiao's heart skipped a beat when she saw the message, and she replied immediately:

"They are all my supportive fans and won't interfere with my decisions, so you can rest assured."

After hanging up the WeChat message, Su Jiaojiao breathed a sigh of relief.

The little dumpling cheered in her mind: "Host! That's awesome!"

Master Su Yue has agreed to take you as her apprentice!

Now your group broadcasting journey will be much smoother!

Su Jiaojiao smiled, but her heart was filled with mixed feelings.

She knew that joining Su Yue's team meant her live-streaming career would face new challenges, and that she might also face more attention and discussion.

But she wasn't afraid; on the contrary, she was somewhat looking forward to it.

Just then, the phone rang again; it was a video call from Lu Jinyuan.

Su Jiaojiao answered the phone, this time pointing the camera at herself. When Lu Jinyuan saw her face, his purple eyes lit up instantly, and his tone softened:

"Jiaojiao, what are you doing?"

"I just finished talking with Master Su Yue, and she agreed to take me on as her apprentice. I might be doing group broadcasting with her team in the future."

Su Jiaojiao said softly

Lu Jinyuan's face instantly darkened, a hint of displeasure flashing in his purple eyes:

"Group broadcast? Broadcasting with a group of people? No way, I don't agree."

The thought of Su Jiaojiao interacting with other boys and girls filled him with irritation, and he wished he could hide her away and only let her see him.

"Brother Lu, this is my decision. I want to give it a try."

Su Jiaojiao's tone was firm, yet still carried a hint of softness.

Lu Jinyuan looked at her, and his displeasure instantly melted away in her eyes; his tone softened.

"Jiaojiao, live streaming is hard work, and it's a mixed bag of people. What if someone bullies you?"
