Chapter 743: The Mermaid (6)
Despite not understanding, he still fulfilled the little mermaid's request. Wen Wan went to play on many amusement park rides, and finally, tired from playing, she lay in the fish tank, excited but listless. She fell asleep on the way back. Gu Chuan looked at the little mermaid in the fish tank in his hand and felt amazed. It was the first time he had seen such a lively little creature.
The low compatibility between Wen Wan and Gu Chuan seemed to reassure Gu Chuan.
However, this made many people laugh. Gu Chuan was a popular male god with many suitors, and anyone could check the compatibility score on the Star Network. After Wen Wan and Gu Chuan's compatibility score was found, a lot of comments about her began to circulate on the Star Network.
It's simply saying she's like a toad trying to eat swan meat.
They said she wasn't good enough to be with Gu Chuan, and so on.
Some noble ladies would come to the General's mansion every day, wanting to see Wen Wan, but how could Wen Wan not see them?
After all, it's so boring, it's good to have some people to relieve the boredom.
However, the aunt tried to stop her from seeing him, but there was one person she couldn't stop because of her identity.
Lanya.
The king's third daughter.
She is also the female lead's half-sister, one of the villainous female supporting characters, and her ending is not good either.
This is a princess, who would dare to stop her? The aunt was so anxious. "Why don't we contact the general? This Princess Lanya is famously fond of our general. She definitely has ill intentions in coming here this time."
Wen Wan: "No need, I can handle it."
Soon the princess arrived. She was beautiful, wearing a fiery red dress, and looked dashing.
Lan Ya was also somewhat surprised to see Wen Wan.
This woman was actually quite pretty, the kind of pretty that had no offensive qualities.
"You are Wen Wan?"
"Yes, may I ask what Princess Lanya wants to see me about?"
"You're not good enough for Brother Gu Chuan. If you know what's good for you, leave now."
Here comes that classic line.
"What can you give me? If you can give me something that really appeals to me, I might leave right away."
Lan Ya seemed surprised by the other party's answer, paused for a moment, and then asked, "What do you want? Do you want money?"
Wen Wan: "Yes, I need money. Gu Chuan is so outstanding. If I can marry him, my future will definitely be filled with happiness. Since you want me to leave him, you should give me enough money. Not much, just one billion star coins. I will leave here immediately."
"A billion? Why don't you just rob someone?"
Wen Wan: Is 1 billion a lot? This is just the revenue she makes in two days of live streaming at most. She thought the world was experiencing currency inflation.
Wen Wan had no idea that her live stream had hundreds of millions of viewers, and that when viewers enjoyed the delicious food, they would shower her with virtual gifts.
Her daily earnings are comparable to those of a top live streamer.
"If a princess like you can't even come up with a billion, then I guess I'll have to stay here."
His eyes were filled with disdain, as if to say, "How can you be so poor?"
Lan Ya was furious and was about to hit Wen Wan, but Wen Wan quickly swam away, saying, "Calm down. Gu Chuan likes me the most right now. If you dare to do anything to me, Gu Chuan won't let you get away with it."
"You're talking nonsense. How could Brother Gu Chuan possibly like you? Your compatibility is only 25%."
Wen Wan: "Princess, you don't understand. If Gu Chuan and I were highly compatible, he would have asked me to stay because of instinct, because of the compatibility. He would naturally not want to. But Gu Chuan and I are extremely incompatible, yet he went against everyone's wishes and even persuaded the commander to let me stay. This proves that I am more important to him than compatibility. Even though our compatibility is weak, he likes me, so he can go against his instinct."
Lan Ya: "Impossible, you're talking nonsense."
Wen Wan: "Then tell me, why did he ask me to stay?"
Lan Ya: "..."
How could she know why Gu Chuan wanted to keep this mermaid with a low compatibility score? Could it really be because of love, as the mermaid said?
How is that possible?
"Then why did you ask me for money? You said you'd leave if I gave you a billion. Don't you love Brother Gu Chuan?"
Wen Wan: "Who said I love Gu Chuan?"
Lan Ya's eyes widened. Wen Wan continued, "Just because he loves me doesn't mean I have to love him back. Little princess, you're too naive. I just played around with him because he's good-looking. If you want it, take it back and give me the money."
"You...you shameless! How could you take advantage of Brother Gu Chuan like this?"
"Then give me the money! Isn't your love for Brother Gu Chuan worth a billion? This really disappoints me."
Lan Ya: "..."
Lan Ya was almost in tears from anger. "Aren't you afraid I'll tell Brother Gu Chuan what your true colors are?"
"Then you try it. He loves me to death right now. Do you think he'll believe you or me?"
Lan Ya: "..."
"I will definitely expose your true colors."
"I hope you can raise 1 billion soon."
After that, Lan Ya became obsessed with Wen Wan and came here every day to monitor Wen Wan, and ended up discovering that Wen Wan was live streaming.
"You're A-Yuan who loves braised pork???" Lan Ya exclaimed in shock. She saw Wen Wan wearing that familiar mask, and upon closer inspection, the background was exactly the same as the one in "A-Yuan Loves Braised Pork".
She only just realized it now.
"You watched my live stream?"
Lan Ya remained silent, but still stubbornly insisted, "Who has ever watched that? I am a princess, how could I possibly watch such low-class things as live streaming?"
Although she was already among the top five leaders in the live stream, she absolutely could not admit it, otherwise she would be incredibly embarrassed.
Wen Wan: "Okay."
"Did you cook all those dishes yourself?"
Wen Wan: "I can't cook, the chef does all the cooking. Would you like to try some? It's not expensive at all, a great deal."
Lan Ya: "You're still asking me for money?"
"You want to freeload?"
"I don't need your money. I don't care about the food. What you make is definitely delicious."
Wen Wan: "You're right."
Soon Wen Wan started her live stream, and the aroma was intoxicating. Lan Ya glanced over, swallowed several times, and could hardly resist. The aroma was even more enticing when smelled live.
"I have something to do, I'll be going now." Lan Ya left, and as soon as she left the general's mansion, she took out her smart device and entered the live broadcast room, where she ate a hearty meal, while simultaneously condemning herself, she couldn't help but feel disgusted.
"Forget it, she doesn't know I'm her fan anyway. I'm a fan of A-Yuan who loves braised pork, not that bad mermaid who seduced Brother Gu Chuan."
Then, out of habit, I thought of giving her a reward, "Why should I give Wen Wan money? I'm just going to get it for free. I'm not going to spend any money on her."
Then, realizing that she had quickly been pushed out of the top five, Lan Ya immediately rewarded him with a sea of fireworks.
"I'm not giving her money, I just don't like people putting me in a bad position."
As for the top four, Lan Ya knows them all and can't compare to them, but the others are not worthy of surpassing her.
After that, Lan Ya's visits increased significantly, whether it was to monitor Wen Wan or for some other reason, it is unknown.
Wen Wan already knew from the system that Lan Ya was actually the Grand Alliance Leader of her live stream. Moreover, although Lan Ya was willful, she wasn't a bad person at heart. Thinking about her tragic end, Wen Wan thought that if Lan Ya were more likable, she might be able to give her a few words of advice.
As long as she doesn't go against the female lead, Lan Ya's ending might be much better.
Gu Chuan is going home more and more often. Ever since he had a meal with Wen Wan, he's really enjoying it.
Wen Wan didn't say anything, after all, the male lead still had to save face. She originally wanted to be exempted from paying one pearl a day, but Gu Chuan disagreed. So Wen Wan could only watch several tearjerker movies at once, cry her heart out, and then pay Gu Chuan's rent.
Wen Wan quickly became a top streamer on the Panda TV platform. Even the other two major platforms, after learning that Wen Wan had only signed a three-year contract, tried every means to poach her, offering exceptionally generous terms.
However, Wen Wan refused. After all, she couldn't break her promise, and the Panda platform had already promoted her and given her maximum freedom. Moreover, Wen Wan was reluctant to give up the audience and fans on the platform.
Besides, the other two major platforms already have their own top streamers. If she went there, she would inevitably have to compete with other streamers for resources, which would be too troublesome. Wen Wan didn't want to do that.
Unexpectedly, when she refused, the other party felt that she was ungrateful. Since she couldn't become their cash cow, they couldn't let this cash cow fall into the hands of their opponent and grow up to threaten their position.
So they started spreading rumors about themselves, making their company's top streamers go live when Wen Wan was live, and even filmed a lot of people to stir up trouble.
And they are still investigating their own identity.
However, these were all minor squabbles. The owner of the Panda platform was no pushover either, and the two sides started fighting. But it didn't affect Wen Wan at all. In fact, Wen Wan didn't even pay attention to the matter until the owner told her. However, the owner's purpose was also to tell her that the two platforms were not good and that he didn't want her to switch platforms.
Wen Wan's snack processing plant was quickly established and soon began producing its first batch of snacks.
It mainly consists of the kinds of foods that Wen Wan most wants to eat.
Wen Wan started a live stream for the snack festival, then began offering snacks to viewers for free. She also put up a little red cart to sell the snacks at exceptionally low prices, barely making any profit, aiming for high volume and low margins as a benefit for her viewers.
The first shipment was 10,000 orders of potato chips. Wen Wan had barely finished speaking when they were all gone. It wasn't even a second later. Those who didn't manage to grab one started crying and screaming.
—Honey, you need to stock up on more inventory. With 10,000 orders and 200 million people vying for them, how is it possible to get them?
—I got it! I got it! I'm so lucky!
—I got all my relatives to come and try to grab it, but we couldn't get any. I cried.
Wen Wan: "Don't worry, everyone. There's plenty of stock. And if you can't get yours this time, there are other options. If you can't get those, there will be more tomorrow and the day after. We guarantee that everyone will be able to buy them."
After that, Wen Wan placed 30,000 orders for potato chips, which also sold out in a second.
Other snacks were served, and they all disappeared in a second.
Two million orders were placed, and all of them were cleared out.
Wen Wan found it terrifying.
Countless people still missed out, but the stock was already gone. "Everyone, try again tomorrow. If you didn't manage to get one, you can try it in my live stream to satisfy your craving."
—Waaaaah, without being able to eat the real thing, some of my wonderful qualities have disappeared.
—Is A-Yuan's company still hiring? I don't need a salary, I just want some snacks.
Wen Wan: "There will be. And this is the first day, so we didn't expect so many people to want the stock. We will increase the stock in the future. I hope everyone can grab it. Also, I will release 30,000 orders of stock every day for a free lottery. I hope the lucky ones will bless every friend in the live stream."
This snack festival directly broke the encirclement and suppression of Wen Wan by the other two platforms. Even with the use of top streamers to broadcast, they still couldn't defeat the popularity of Wen Wan's live stream. In fact, her popularity was gradually decreasing. The bosses of the other two platforms were furious. They really didn't know where the boss of Panda TV got such good luck to sign such a big gem.
