Chapter 165 Welcome Back
During the few days she was away, her older brothers and sisters took such good care of the group.
Fearing she might lose fans, they would frequently send out red envelopes and hold raffles, keeping the fan group lively and bustling.
This makes fans even more eager to see when she will return, instead of switching to other streamers just because she's not broadcasting anymore.
As she scrolled through the records, watching the messages of concern, red envelopes, funny stories, and music sharing scroll across the screen, Ji Wanqing felt warmed by this wave of kindness from the internet.
In their own way, they protected her home during her most difficult time.
She took a deep breath and typed in the group chat.
Sunny Tuantuan: [I'm back! Mom's surgery was a success, thank you everyone! Really... thank you so much!]
The message immediately caused an uproar in the group chat.
Sparkling stars! [!! Sister, you're back! Auntie's surgery was a success, that's wonderful! Hooray! Firecrackers!]
The unpretentious rich woman: [My darling, you've worked so hard! I can relax now! Wait, I'll send another red envelope to celebrate!]
Qingye [Congratulations. 】
[Blank: Success is good.]
The rich woman immediately sent a large red envelope containing 1,000 yuan. Biefei didn't say anything, but also sent a red envelope.
As Ji Wanqing watched, the corners of her mouth unconsciously turned up. This was the first truly relaxed smile she had shown since her mother fell ill.
She was still feeling touched when the doorbell suddenly rang.
Who could it be? Ji Wanqing walked to the door with some doubt, and looked through the peephole. It turned out to be Meng Chao who had returned.
She opened the door. "Meng Chao? What happened to you..."
Meng Chao carried an exquisite insulated container in his hand, a refreshing smile on his face.
"My mom had the housekeeper make some chicken soup. It's light and nutritious, perfect for you to nourish yourself, and also to celebrate Auntie's successful surgery." He shook the thermos in his hand. "Aren't you going to invite me in?"
This time, his attitude was much more natural.
Ji Wanqing did feel her stomach was empty. When she saw the chicken soup in his hand, she felt a warmth in her heart and stepped aside to let him in.
"Please come in quickly, thank you and Auntie for going to so much trouble."
Meng Chao walked in, naturally placed the thermos on the dining table, opened the lid, and a rich aroma immediately wafted out.
"Drink some while it's hot." He handed her the bowl of chicken soup.
Ji Wanqing took it and sipped it.
"It's delicious, please thank Auntie for me."
"I'm glad you like it." Meng Chao watched her lower her head and drink the soup. Under the light, her profile looked soft and quiet. His heart stirred slightly, and his tone softened. "You've been checking the fan group as soon as you got back. You... don't push yourself too hard. The recovery period is still long, and there will be many more times when we need you."
"I know." Ji Wanqing nodded. "I'll resume the live stream once Mom's condition stabilizes. Thank you all so much for these past few days, especially in the group... and you here too."
She mentioned the group chat, and Meng Chao casually asked about it as well.
"Speaking of which, the island seems to be quite quiet this time? His wife had such a big surgery, and he didn't even say anything?"
Ji Wanqing paused slightly in her hand holding the soup spoon, then smiled with a hint of relief.
"Maybe he's busy in real life, but it's okay. Everyone has their own life. I'm just grateful that he can come and watch the live stream occasionally."
After chatting for a few more minutes, Meng Chao noticed that Ji Wanqing looked tired again, so he considerately got up to say goodbye.
After seeing Meng Chao off, Ji Wanqing tidied up the dishes and returned to the sofa, feeling more relaxed than before.
She picked up her phone and saw that the group chat was still lively, with everyone even discussing what games they should play together to celebrate her return.
She smiled and watched for a while, then opened the private chat window with Lonely Island. The message was still from when she last sent him a gift and asked for his address.
She sighed softly; it would be a lie to say she wasn't disappointed.
But perhaps this is what normal online relationships are like. She closed the chat window and stopped worrying about it.
The next day, Ji's mother was moved to a regular ward. Ji Wanqing wasn't that short of money right now, and the debt issue could be put on hold, but she wanted her mother to be more comfortable, so she still arranged for her to stay in a private room.
Ji's mother is in good condition after the surgery. Ji Wanqing stayed with her for a few days and she is already able to take care of herself as usual.
After communicating with the nanny who was taking care of her and her mother, Ji Wanqing decided to resume live streaming today.
She told her fans in advance that the show would start tonight, and Blank took the lead by saying that she would give away ten lucky bags tonight, which made the fans very excited.
So a huge number of people flooded in as soon as the broadcast started.
[Sunny day!! You're finally back!!]
[I miss you so much, my wife! Is Auntie feeling any better?]
Congratulations to the aunt on her successful surgery!
[Qingtian looks so thin, it breaks my heart...]
Seeing the screen full of caring greetings, Ji Wanqing felt a lump in her throat, and forced back her tears, giving the camera a bright yet slightly embarrassed smile.
"Good evening everyone, I'm back. Thank you all for your continued concern and patience. My mother's surgery was a success, and she has now been transferred to a regular ward and is recovering very well. I am truly... extremely grateful to everyone!"
Her voice was still slightly choked, but more than that, it was filled with a sense of relief and genuine gratitude.
As soon as he finished speaking, the gift effects in the live stream started flooding the screen.
All the older siblings were present, and the large gifts, such as starships, the God of Wealth, gold mountains, and rocket rain, never stopped.
The dazzling special effects almost overwhelmed the entire screen, and the public chat was flooded with comments like "Welcome home" and "Congratulations".
Blank kept his promise and asked Ji Wanqing to draw a lucky bag. He transferred money directly to her to pay for it, and the popularity and buzz of the live stream instantly soared to the top of the platform's homepage recommendations.
"Thank you! Thank you, Blank Brother, thank you, Rich Sister, thank you, Don't Bark Brother, thank you, Starlight Baby, thank you, Qingye Brother, thank you, End Point Brother... thank you everyone!" Ji Wanqing was a little flustered by the enthusiastic welcome, thanking everyone repeatedly, her smile genuine and touching. "You've all gone to so much trouble. I'm so happy to be back and see you all."
Don't bark. [Welcome back, I hope everything went well.]
A simple and unpretentious wealthy woman: [My darling, may you be happy every day from now on!]
Sparkling with stars! [What are you doing today, sister? We'll play with you!]
"Let's chat for a bit today, it's been a long time since I've had a proper conversation with everyone." Ji Wanqing adjusted the camera, her tone becoming lighter. "Then how about we play some lighthearted games? I haven't played for several days, so my skills might be a little rusty, please don't laugh at me."
While interacting with the live chat and answering fans' various questions about her mother's condition, she also started a simple casual game.
Although she wasn't as energetic as before she got sick, the overall atmosphere was very warm and harmonious.
Just when the atmosphere was perfect, her phone suddenly rang urgently.
