Chapter 178 Job Hopping
There weren't many people in the live stream right now, and the comments weren't scrolling as fast as before, so Ji Wanqing naturally saw the prominent comment about the isolated island.
But she could only pretend not to see it, otherwise the fire would only burn more fiercely.
She was relieved that she was playing games and didn't see the finish line, otherwise the two of them would probably have started arguing again.
Her attention returned to the game, and the atmosphere didn't ease much after Qingye wiped out the team.
The group began to silently loot the bag, with Ji Wanqing sandwiched in the middle, feeling as if the air in the room had thinned out.
She tried to make her voice sound natural, "Um... you've licked enough? Ready to enter the circle?"
"Okay." The finish line responded and walked to the driver's seat of the car, waiting for the others to get in.
On their journey, they were intercepted by the enemy again.
The enemy ambushed them in the houses along the only route, and bullets whizzed by.
Instead of stopping at the finish line, they prepared to rush across.
The vehicle tried to dodge the bullets, but many bullets still hit the car.
Having already been attacked once, the car's durability has plummeted this time.
"The car is going to explode!" Ji Wanqing exclaimed as she looked at the smoking car body.
"Jump out!" Kiyono shouted, and at the finish line, he slightly applied the brakes to slow the car down.
The four people jumped out of the car almost simultaneously, and the vehicle exploded the next second.
They landed in a relatively low-lying patch of grass, temporarily escaping the enemy's direct fire range, but their position was very unfavorable.
"Qingye, you and Kongbai sneak up from the left to draw their fire, Qingtian and I will line up the guns from the right and surround them." The finish line reacted quickly and formulated a strategy.
This time, neither Kiyono nor Blank responded immediately.
After a brief silence, Qingye spoke, his voice still gentle, "The enemy occupies the high ground, and flanking from both sides is very risky. I suggest that Blank and I launch a feint attack from the front to create chaos, while you and Qingtian look for an opportunity to strike a fatal blow from the side and rear."
The blank character turns to Kiyono without saying a word.
He hesitated for a second at the finish line. He liked aggressive attacks, but he also knew that Qingye's plan had a higher success rate.
"Okay, I'll do as you say. Blank, is that alright?"
"Okay," Blank replied.
After they finished speaking, Blank and Kiyono began to put pressure on each other.
Find the right opportunity at the finish line, "Sunny day, let's go."
Ji Wanqing immediately stood up and followed the finish line around to the side, successfully reaching the back of the building area. She kept her footsteps low and caught the enemy off guard.
"Done." The finish lineman breathed a sigh of relief.
Kiyono and Blank also converged from the front.
Ultimately, they successfully advanced to the finals and won first place.
[One Starship Given Away on the Isolated Island] (9999 Boiling Point Coins)
The isolated island [performed well].
The game had barely ended when the island quickly sent a gift.
Ji Wanqing thanked him repeatedly, "Thank you for the starship, Brother Lonely Island!" Then, a little embarrassed, she responded to his praise, "My skills weren't great today, Brother Lonely Island, please don't praise me."
"You're this good even when your touch isn't great? That's impressive." The finish line immediately chimed in.
[Complete line rewards: 10 Starships] (99,990 Boiling Point Coins)
He seemed to have a lot on his mind, and he directly gifted a starship in the live stream.
"Thanks for the starship, Brother Jidian. Let's continue." Ji Wanqing used a topic-changing technique to pull his attention back from the live stream to the game.
In this delicate atmosphere, Ji Wanqing played a few more games with them before ending the broadcast.
When Ji Wanqing woke up the next day, the morning sunlight shone on her face through the gap in the curtains. She rubbed her sleepy eyes and habitually picked up her phone to check messages.
When she saw the finish line and the message from Starlight, she instantly woke up and sat up abruptly in bed.
Finish line [Boiling Point said they won't give you any more soft sealing, but the flow rate probably won't be much either.]
Shining Star [Sunny Sister, we're leaving Boiling Point! I've talked to my sister, and she promised to create her own live streaming platform! If you switch platforms, I'll make you the top streamer!]
The finish line may have exerted pressure through some means, which is why Boiling Point was unsealed.
However, the deliberate suppression in the past few days, along with the automatic unfollowing and lost traffic, make it difficult for her to regain her previous number of followers in the short term.
After all, new streamers emerge constantly in the online world. If she doesn't appear for a few days, it's enough for those less loyal fans to forget about her.
The information about Starlight stirred up a huge wave in her heart.
So you haven't shown up these past two days because you've been trying to figure something out for her?
Create their own platform? Promote her to be the top influencer?
Ji Wanqing looked at these lines of text repeatedly, her heart pounding uncontrollably.
The temptation is too great. A brand new platform, backed by a young master with a powerful background like Starlight, and the direct arrival of top female streamers... This is an opportunity that almost every streamer dreams of.
This means she may no longer have to cater to the platform's demands, worry about traffic, and her income may increase several times over, allowing her to pay off her debts more quickly and provide a better life for her mother.
A huge sense of surprise and excitement swirled in her mind, but as she calmed down, reason gradually returned.
A newly built platform means starting from scratch.
Starlight Home may have the resources, but building a platform, attracting users, and establishing an ecosystem is by no means easy and requires time and huge financial investment.
Where will the initial traffic come from? Will it be stable?
How much real value can the so-called "top female influencer" resources have when the platform's user base is small in its early stages?
More importantly, if she really switches jobs, what about the breach of contract penalty from Boiling Point?
Will Xingguang help her pay? Even if he were willing, this favor would be too heavy, so heavy that she might never be able to repay it in her lifetime.
Moreover, this is tantamount to completely tying her career to Starlight.
Changing jobs means huge opportunities, but also unknown risks and potential losses.
She took a deep breath and, instead of replying to Starlight immediately, opened the finish line's chat window.
Ji Wanqing: [Received, thank you so much, Brother Zhidian. Getting things back to normal has been a huge help. Data usage will recover gradually.]
The other side replied very quickly.
Finish line [Um, are you free this afternoon? I just discovered a Japanese restaurant, the food is pretty good.]
She instinctively wanted to refuse, but her fingers hesitated for a moment before she replied.
Ji Wanqing: [Okay, but it might be a little late, I need to go to the hospital.]
Finish line [Okay, you set the time. Call me when you're done, I'll pick you up from the hospital.]
Ji Wanqing: [Mm.]
Both emotionally and logically, he had helped her so much, so Ji Wanqing couldn't refuse the invitation.
After ending her conversation with the finish line, Ji Wanqing's attention returned to the tempting message from Starlight.
She hesitated for a long time before replying cautiously.
Ji Wanqing [Starlight, thank you so much, thank you and your sister! This proposal is so appealing to me, I'm really tempted! But... this matter is very important, involving breach of contract fees, fan migration, and many uncertainties. I need some time to seriously consider it, and also to evaluate the specific plans and prospects of the new platform. Could you give me some time? Thank you again for your consideration!]
She expressed her gratitude and interest without making any definitive statements, leaving herself room to maneuver.
