Chapter 12 That wasn't a brick at all! Pei Qing was also furious...
Pei Qing also became famous. Who was she? She also spent 10,000 yuan in the live broadcast room.
"come over."
"Even the 'playmate' guy is so rich."
"So, it's true that the poor are the cheap ones."
"Such dazzling light, I'd marry either of them without hesitation."
...
He remembered that the two of them had added him on WeChat, but their pride made Ning Buyi suffer.
He typed in the public chat: "Can't you guys just forward my WeChat message? Do you know how much money I'm short?"
Now he no longer goes to Zhu Yanhe's place, nor to Pei Qing's place, and has finally settled down on ADC's head.
Zhu Yanhe:…
Pei Qing: ...
They just spent 20,000, right? But why didn't Ning Buyi come over? Instead, he ran even further away.
"Jianjian is heartbroken over that money."
"I'm done for. The fight between the snipe and the clam has benefited the ADC."
"ADC made a net profit of 20,000."
...
Pei Qing coaxed, "Don't be angry, you were wrong, you were wrong."
Zhu Yan and Wen Yan jokingly called her a vixen.
After thinking it over, Ning Buyi decided to go back. He would go with one person for a while. Now, he had to deal with both of them, as one was his number one female supporter and the other was his number two male supporter. He couldn't afford to offend either of them!
Because the biggest weakness in the game was playing support, the team won decisively in the late game when they had a significant economic advantage.
Ning Buyi spent the entire afternoon serving the two young masters, exhausting himself as a little assistant, even though the battle results were still impressive.
"The most tiring live stream I've ever done."
"The most fun I've ever watched."
“You cheeky baby, it seems like two people are watching you.”
...
Ning Buyi was so tired that he lay on the table. From the camera lens, all that could be seen was the top of the boy's head and the slender waist revealed by his clothes being pulled up.
"Get up!!! You jerk!!"
"I'm even more afraid of him revealing something than Jianjian does. I'm so worried."
"Am I still so stupid or just plain idiotic?"
...
But the live stream was shut down in less than a minute.
She was someone Zhu Yanhe had specifically reminded him of before, a key person to observe, and she was even faster than Ning Buyi had been cursing people the previous two times.
When Ning Buyi looked up after resting for a while, the sky seemed to have fallen. His live stream had been banned again. The words "involving [illegal activities]" in the background left him bewildered. Who had [illegible activities]?
At that time, among the many posts on the gaming website, a post titled "Poverty Can Be Used to Fake Livestreams" appeared, but no one paid attention to it. Clicking on it, people just thought it was a jealous smear post. Everyone was used to it and continued surfing, and it was quickly submerged in the sea of posts.
"What are you filming while you're eating?" Li Chang broke apart his disposable chopsticks and looked at Ning Buyi, who was taking pictures with a brick across from him.
"If I show it to the top-ranked lady, she'll scold me, and then she'll send me money." Ning Buyi slapped his index finger, but it didn't move. He had to swipe it again before the program started running.
Li Chang slightly parted his lips, suspecting that Ning Buyi was playing some shady game with the top female fan, the kind where you hit her and she screams.
The reply was received very quickly after the message was sent.
Zhu Yanhe: Don't post the photos you took with that brick.
Zhu Yanhe: [Transfer money].
Ning Buyi: Thank you, thank you.
She's practically his angel sister; he'd be happy to spend his whole life with her, even if it's just a mix of meat and vegetables.
"You rascal, why don't you replace your phone when it's so broken?" Li Chang asked him, feeling that the phone was on its last legs.
Ning Buyi thought about the money in his bank account and replied, "No, I need to buy a house first."
Li Chang simply took it as a normal person's life pursuit and didn't think much of it.
"If you ask me, your phone will only last a few more days."
"Don't talk to him like that. You'll be with me for a long time, my phone."
Ning Buyi gently stroked the cracked phone, as if it were his own son.
Suddenly, the weather outside the window changed from sunny to rainy, and the sound of raindrops hitting the ground made a crisp, pleasant white noise.
Ning Buyi took a picture of the rain and sent it to Zhu Yanhe, just wanting to share the rain with him.
The other side quickly replied with a few words.
Zhu Yanhe: Are you so poor that you can't even afford an umbrella?
Wishing you peace and harmony: [red envelope]
Ning Buyi didn't mean it that way, but he still grinned and accepted it.
He suddenly remembered that Jingjing and a few others would be coming to visit him in a couple of days and would also like to take photos for him to upload to the competition.
"Brother, Jingjing and the others will be here in a couple of days."
"who?"
Li Chang was watching Chestnut's live stream, his eyes glued to his phone.
"they."
Ning Buyi pointed to the small electronic screen in front of him.
"Who are you kidding? You're shameless. I know you're doing a good job, but you can't just spout nonsense out of vanity." Li Chang waved him away, his face clearly showing distrust.
Ning Buyi scoffed, thinking that the person would come in a couple of days and dazzle him.
Li Chang, with one hand behind his back, asked him, "Are you still broadcasting tomorrow?"
Ning Buyi nodded; it was his job.
Seeing that he broadcasts like this every day, Li Chang suggested to him: "You can take a day or two off a week, like tomorrow."
Then he detailed to Ning Buyi how many days a week those top streamers broadcast and how long each broadcast lasted.
Ning Buyi nodded, getting straight to the point: "Actually, it's because you have something to do tomorrow."
"Hey, how did you know?" Li Chang grinned, revealing his big teeth. Actually, he was going on a blind date tomorrow, so he needed Ning Buyi to mind the shop.
Ning Buyi asked, "What is a blind date?"
Li Chang replied, "The purpose of this blind date is to find you a sister-in-law."
"oh."
An early autumn rain has passed, and the sun shines on the earth again, but autumn has not yet arrived, and the air conditioner is still blowing cold air in.
The boy sat at the counter minding the shop, propping his head up with his hand, so bored he was practically staring a hole through the ceiling.
The phone on the table kept vibrating. The viewers brought their meals to Ning Buyi's live stream on time, but he didn't start broadcasting. They kept urging the streamer in the background.
Ning Buyi posted a status update while holding up his phone: "Watching the store, not broadcasting."
Upon seeing this announcement, fans were stunned, and the information immediately flooded in.
"How can I eat without you, my dear?"
"You heartless bastard, don't you want our money anymore?"
"You jerk, I want to see you, even if it means not playing games."
...
Ning Buyi looked at the accusatory comments below and replied to them one by one.
"Eat your vegetables."
"Yes, I will."
"There are videos on the homepage."
...
It was only after being reminded by several big fans that he realized he could also livestream on his phone. They said that even if he didn't watch, he could just play games or chat with others. So, you can make money by chatting?
So, with guidance from his fan group, he started a live stream using a brick. Because the camera was also old and in disrepair, Ning Buyi's live stream had picture quality like an old-fashioned mobile phone.
Ning Buyi was eating beef noodles with his phone propped up on the front desk. Although the lens was blurry, like a misaligned contact lens, he could still clearly see the boy's handsome face, as if it were covered by a layer of fog.
"You're eating so deliciously, you're such a jerk."
"Mom is also eating beef noodles, it smells so good."
"She's definitely more endearing when she's not playing games."
...
The boy, mumbling and slurring, seemed like a background figure, occasionally glancing up. The viewers and the streamer were all quietly doing their own thing, a picture of tranquility.
Ning Buyi finished the last bite of noodles and buried his head in cleaning the bits of noodles and meat in the bowl. He heard footsteps pass by, and when he looked up again, the table was empty.
No, where's his phone?
Even after that, people still steal it?
Startled, the boy immediately stood up and, remembering the sound of the automatic door opening and closing, chased after it, but couldn't lock onto the target no matter how he looked around.
The person who stole Ning Buyi's phone ran away as fast as he could from the internet cafe, slipping into an alley before daring to take out his phone to see how to make money.
He saw his own face reflected on the phone screen and realized that the kid was live-streaming. He immediately threw the phone on the ground, spat, and left.
"unlucky."
Before the phones were scattered everywhere, the number of viewers in the unmanned live stream room skyrocketed, making it the most popular live stream in the gaming world.
"What the heck? Was I robbed?"
“Jianjian’s already impoverished life has been made even worse.”
"Just a passerby, why is there no streamer in this live stream?"
...
Ning Buyi was unaware that Li Chang's prediction about his phone had come true, and that he had already ascended to heaven.
He also has to mind the shop, sitting at the front desk brainstorming ideas. He's not worried about thieves stealing his money; all his privacy software has three password locks.
Each one is different, and with the extra-long standby time that old, worn-out phones originally came with, most people might be impatient and just leave the phone aside, since phone stores won't accept phones that are already 70 or 80% used.
So Ning Buyi is now only saddened by his precious cell phone, which he bought with four hundred yuan after risking his life to bring things back from outside for others, even though he was a day student in high school.
It is of great significance.
He sat there like a stagnant stone at the front desk. When Li Chang returned from his blind date at noon, he thought the person sitting at the front desk with his head down was someone's vengeful spirit, which gave him a big fright.
"Jian'er, what's wrong with you!" Li Chang stepped forward to check his breathing. He had only gone out for lunch; surely he couldn't have died?
Ning Buyi looked up, appearing completely disoriented: "My phone was stolen."
The key issue is that if you call the police, they won't file a case for 400 yuan.
Li Chang checked the surveillance footage and discovered that it had been stolen by a man wearing a hoodie.
"Let's go find it quickly, there's still money inside."
Ning Buyi shook his head frame by frame: "I can't take the money, I just want my phone."
Li Chang's face was utterly speechless, as if he were talking about a brick that no one would even pick up if it were thrown on the ground.
"That's perfect, let's buy a new one, the old one was barely hanging on anyway."
Finally, Li Chang bought Ning Buyi a new phone online, so he could only live like a caveman for the next couple of days.
At this time, Zhu Yanhe hadn't gone to the live stream room that morning. He was in his study with a book in his hand and playing with his phone in the other. He watched the time pass by breakfast time and lunch time, but the Chihuahua hadn't sent him any messages.
This book is utterly boring.
In the afternoon, Ning Buyi started his live stream as usual.
"Jianjian, are you alright?"
"Jianjian, is your phone back?"
"Finally, I've seen the streamer's face. I'm just a passerby."
...
Zhu Yanhe received the message on his phone and clicked on it. Seeing the barrage of comments comforting the grumpy streamer, he realized that the brick had been stolen.
Zhu Yanhe: "Isn't it just a brick?"
Ning Buyi retorted, "That's not a brick at all! That's my phone!"
