Chapter 22 You can only call her "sister-in-law," not "wife."
Song Ying humbly sought advice, her eyelashes fluttering like feathers in the dim light.
[My daughter is so good!]
No experience is no problem, it's not difficult at all. Just chat with us, Ah Ying!
【Yes, Yingbao, just treat it like a chat between friends!】
So for the rest of the time, Song Ying patiently watched the comments and chatted with netizens, and the more they chatted, the more excited she became.
It was at this moment that she finally realized that there was more than just malice online.
The live stream was more fun than I expected.
As people learn more about her, they also discover that Song Ying isn't really argumentative. When she lets her guard down, she's actually very easy to get along with, polite, kind, and patient. She's truly versatile, straightforward, and not at all pretentious.
Many of the casual viewers who occasionally stumbled upon the page also became fans.
Over time, the conversation moved beyond superficial topics like personal hobbies and gradually delved deeper.
"[Yingbao, is Brother Qin really your kept man?]" someone asked.
"Pretty boy?" Song Ying was taken aback, but quickly remembered the words Qin Shu and Shen Linzhou had exchanged yesterday, and laughed, "I'd like to keep one, provided I can afford it."
[What do you mean? Isn't that right? Everyone online is saying that Brother Qin is being kept by you, and everyone's asking where they found such a top-tier woman!]
"You really think too highly of me. I couldn't afford to support him even if I sold myself."
It's not that Song Ying underestimates herself. Let alone the fact that she's just a minor celebrity now, even if a newly crowned movie star like Shen Linzhou worked as a laborer for someone else for a hundred years, his commercial value wouldn't be enough to buy the Qin family's precious darling.
Netizens are really daring with their imaginations.
[Can't afford it? Does Brother Qin have some powerful connections?]
Many people online want to know what Brother Qin does, but they can't find out after searching for a long time.
Based on my years of experience reading novels, there are two possibilities if someone can't be found: First, they are truly too transparent to be found; second, their status is too prestigious to be concealed. I'm guessing Brother Qin is the second.
Ordinary people don't have Brother Qin's aura.
[Seconded! By the way, Yingbao, what exactly does Brother Qin do?]
When the topic shifted to Qin Shu, netizens immediately became agitated.
After this period of fermentation, Qin Shu's identity has become a complete mystery.
This is also what Song Ying is most worried about.
She didn't want her participation in the variety show to affect Qin Shu's normal life afterward.
So, "Everyone is overthinking it. Real life isn't a novel. There's no such thing as being noble or not. He's just an ordinary worker like us."
[I don't believe it! Working people aren't that spirited!]
Where's Brother Qin? Ah Ying, quickly bring Brother Qin over for a chat!
[Yes, yes, other live streams feature two-person interactions, Sister Ying, please give Brother Qin a chance to shine!]
The comments section was full of people calling for Qin Shu. Song Ying couldn't pretend she didn't see it, so she reached out and nudged Qin Shu next to her, "Wake up, everyone's looking for you."
"What do you want from me? Go find your pretty boy!" Qin Shu snorted, turning his head away. Strands of hair obscured his eyebrows and eyes, making his nose appear even more prominent and his lips thinner.
At this moment, however, the corners of his lips were slightly downturned, clearly indicating that he was sulking.
This woman just now actually discussed keeping men with someone else right in front of him, ugh!
"So that's why I came to find you?" Song Ying laughed at his jealous attitude and teased him.
"...So you were talking about me just now?"
"uh-huh."
Qin Shu immediately perked up, stood up, and moved closer to Song Ying to read the comments and bullet screen together.
Another close-up beauty filter attack, and the comments section is no longer reserved.
[Ahhh! Brother Qin is so handsome!]
[This damn temptation! I, He Jin, am watching it under my real name!]
[Honey, honey! Look at me!]
Qin Shu didn't expect netizens to be so wild. He frowned and corrected them seriously, "Don't call me husband. I have a wife. She'll get angry if I call her that."
As a result, once he said those words, the comment section was completely flooded with comments calling him "husband."
Qin Shu: "..."
Seeing Qin Shu's depressed look, Song Ying laughed, "Silly boy, they're just joking with you."
"Even joking isn't allowed." Qin Shu was unhappy, but then he saw a group of people calling Song Ying "wife."
Qin Shu: "..."
"Alright, stop teasing him." Seeing her own jealous boyfriend getting jealous, Song Ying quickly advised the netizens.
[Qin Ge looks so cute when he's angry!]
[You don't have to call me "wife," just sing me a song, Brother Qin!]
[Yes, yes, yes, let's have a talent show! Qiao Yu next door sings incredibly well! Brother Qin has such a nice voice, he must be a great singer too!]
"I can't sing."
Qin Shu adjusted the position of the massage chair, lazily lay back down, and made sure he could see the screen at the same time.
[The movie star next door is showing off his muscles, Brother Qin, could you take a look?]
This is great! This is great!
[Is this something I can watch for free?! (Nosebleed)]
"He won't show it to anyone except his wife."
His eyelids drooped lazily, his fox-like eyes were stunningly beautiful, yet incredibly arrogant.
Everyone was immediately disappointed, but then Qin Shu picked up his phone and said, "However, we can exchange it for a perk."
Just as everyone was puzzled, a large red envelope suddenly appeared on the screen.
【！！！】
Holy crap, Brother Qin is awesome!
Thank you, boss!
The variety show live stream is on the Tomato platform, where cash red envelopes of up to 10,000 yuan are available for viewers in the live stream to grab, but there is a chance to have them flash across the entire channel.
Qin Shu spent over a dozen large sums of money in a row, which immediately attracted many people to come in.
"Qin Shu, what are you doing?" Song Ying was also dumbfounded. You can't just throw money away like this.
"Please have some wedding candy." Qin Shu's fingers didn't stop, and she didn't forget to remind the audience, "After eating the wedding candy, you have to call her sister-in-law, not wife."
[Hahaha, this is hilarious! Thanks, Brother Qin!]
[Brother Qin is so generous!]
[Brother Qin and Sister-in-law Ying, 99!]
The live stream room was filled with a festive atmosphere, like Chinese New Year, but other live stream rooms were not so cheerful.
Especially Shen Linzhou and Jiang Yueyao.
Seeing the audience rapidly dwindling, Shen Linzhou, who was wiping sweat from his muscular physique, paused, wondering, "Is there another bug on the platform? Why are the viewers decreasing so quickly?"
[The couple next door who win or lose sent out red envelopes! Everyone's rushing to grab them! Apparently, they've given out almost 300,000 yuan worth. I'm going to grab one too, I'll come back and hang out with you guys later!]
After saying this, the person also left the live stream.
Shen Linzhou and Jiang Yueyao exchanged a glance and couldn't help but say sourly, "Sending red envelopes to gain popularity, Song Ying and Qin Shu are indeed clever."
"Sending out red envelopes yourself is no different from paying for data, right?" Jiang Yueyao smiled and handed Shen Linzhou a glass of water. "We just need to do our job well."
That's what they said, but seeing the number of viewers in the live stream dwindling, the two of them couldn't keep smiling.
The same applies to Zhou Ruoyu.
Not many people watched the live stream in the morning, so few people saw her earlier provocative behavior. In addition, Qiao Yu coaxed her and the fans in the barrage praised her, and she was finally in a good mood.
Before they could even celebrate, they saw half of their fans rush to the Winners and Losers couple's live stream to grab red envelopes.
Zhou Ruoyu gritted her teeth, endured the financial pain, and also sent out red envelopes in the live broadcast room.
"Ruoyu, calm down," Qiao Yu couldn't help but advise her as she threw money around.
"I'm perfectly calm. If they can post it, why can't I? My fans support me so much, what's wrong with giving them some perks? Besides, I didn't spend any of your money, so why are you in such a hurry?"
When Zhou Ruoyu loses her temper, she attacks everyone indiscriminately.
Qiao Yu's attempts to persuade him failed, so he simply went out and went to the suite's movie room to watch a movie.
Spending money is indeed exhilarating; the number of viewers in Zhou Ruoyu's live stream increased rapidly, quickly reaching the top spot among the four live streams.
In the live stream room of the winning and losing couple.
[Brother Qin, the neighbors next door are copying your spending spree, shouldn't we make a few more and then bet back on them?]
"Why get angry about that? I'm not stupid or rich." Qin Shu put away her phone and tossed it aside. "It was just for fun, no need to take it seriously."
He originally just wanted to give Song Ying's fans a treat, but unexpectedly, many random people joined in later.
At this point, there's no point in posting anything further.
But everyone's gone next door, shouldn't we call them back?
"What's yours will come to you; what's not yours, no amount of money can buy." People gather for money, and they also disperse for money.
As expected, when Zhou Ruoyu stopped giving out red envelopes, the passersby who had rushed over dispersed.
Having tasted the joy of popularity, how could Zhou Ruoyu possibly endure loneliness?
They immediately resumed sending messages, but they were clearly struggling, sending messages less and less frequently, and sending smaller and smaller amounts.
However, in Jiang Yueyao and Shen Linzhou's live streams, the main celebrities themselves didn't participate, but several big fans started stirring things up and sending large amounts of gifts.
Whatever others have, Jiang Chenlian must have too!
[Don't lose face, darlings! Charge! Show your strength!]
According to the rules of the Tomato platform, when fans send large gifts or send large red envelopes in the live broadcast room, the entire channel will push the notifications. As the popularity of her live broadcast room increases, Jiang Yueyao's smile becomes brighter and brighter. She is happy in her heart, but she kindly advises others.
"Everyone, stop sending money! Keep your money for yourselves!"
"Linzhou and I have received your kind intentions, but there's no need to compete with others. Let's just do our best!"
"We don't manipulate the data, so please stop feeding!"
On Zhou Ruoyu's side, fans had already informed her of the current situation. She never expected that after the Winner and Loser couple calmed down, Jiang Yueyao was still lurking behind the scenes, playing this trick on her.
She might not know about others, but Jiang Yueyao certainly understood.
As one of the earliest live-streaming celebrities to sign with a live-streaming platform, Jiang Yueyao is well aware of the platform's rules. If she really doesn't want gifts, she can simply turn off the tipping function. Why bother with this pretentious act?
The words Da Meng had said that morning echoed in Zhou Ruoyu's ears once again.
That's right, Jiang Yueyao is the biggest scheming bitch!
Once the thought arose, it was impossible to suppress. Zhou Ruoyu increasingly felt like she was just a tool in Jiang Yueyao's hands.
Especially in the matter of Song Ying, Jiang Yueyao never takes the lead herself, but always pushes her to the front lines. As a result, many people have turned against her, and even during her live streams, many people say that she has changed and quite a few people are cursing her.
And what about Jiang Yueyao?
She remained calm and composed, like a pure white lotus rising from the mud, embodying all the good qualities.
Once a crack appears in a fake sisterhood, it's hard to mend it.
Seeing the notification that she had already sent out nearly 700,000 yuan in red envelopes, but the number of people in the live stream was decreasing, Zhou Ruoyu felt as if someone had cut her flesh.
His dissatisfaction with Jiang Yueyao was also accumulating more and more.
