Fans in the live stream gasped upon seeing this breathtaking beauty.
"Ahhhhhh my god, I told you my judgment was right, she is the prettiest one!"
"I knew she was a beauty just from seeing her back! Exactly as expected."
"Thanks to the passerby in front, otherwise none of us would get to see a face like this."
"Good lord, does this kind of looks actually exist?"
"Could it be a beauty filter? With a face like that, why wouldn't she want to show it? She'd be more than successful enough even if she wanted to be an internet celebrity."
A few sour grapes popped up to question whether it was all staged, but fans quickly stepped up to speak out for her.
"Yo yo yo, I can smell the sourness of certain people all the way from abroad. They must be jealous of her looks, so they're trying to smear her. (Pout)"
"It's not like everyone wants to be an internet celebrity. The internet is free; do good-looking people *have* to be influencers? Why are people nowadays so nosy?"
Fortunately, the girl and her cameraman noticed the accident in time and quickly panned the lens away, so the live stream only caught a glimpse, but it was already a fleeting vision of stunning beauty.
"Babies, please don't edit or recreate this clip, okay? This young lady originally didn't want to appear on camera, and now a little accident happened. Consider yourselves lucky just to have seen her face, so don't post this out anywhere."
The girl explained to the fans in the live stream, then went over to apologize to Qin Qing, telling her that the live stream camera had caught her on film.
Qin Qing had already known it wasn't the girl's fault and smiled to comfort her. "It's fine. It was my issue to begin with, nothing to do with you, don't take it to heart."
The girl was so moved her eyes welled up with tears. "I've already told the fans not to edit or repost it, I hope it won't bring you any trouble."
Qin Qing smiled gently. "We still have things to do, so we'll be leaving first."
After bidding farewell to the girl, Fang Zhirou asked, "Are you really okay?"
"I'm fine. The only reason I didn't want to be on camera was to avoid trouble. After all, with a face as pretty as this, if too many people knew about it, it would affect my campus life," Qin Qing bragged with a touch of narcissism.
Fang Zhirou rolled her eyes so hard it bordered on the impossible. To think she had been worrying just moments ago, while the person in question didn't care at all.
This incident killed any further interest either of them had in strolling around, yet neither wanted to go home yet, so they simply found a coffee shop to sit down in.
"I-Broadcast is about to start!"
Fang Zhirou checked her group messages and said happily.
Since Qin Qing had nothing to do, she simply followed her to stay in the voice room and listen to some music. For some inexplicable reason, this coffee shop was playing nothing but sad emo anthems, putting everyone in a gloomy mood.
"What the heck, today's task for Big Brother is actually this low?"
Fang Zhirou's exclamation drew Qin Qing's attention. "What's wrong?"
"I don't know, today's tasks for all the streamers are so low. Normally their tasks would at least be around 10.0, but this time for some reason everyone's dropped by 5.0. How strange, let me check what's going on."
Hearing this, Qin Qing furrowed her brow.
"Huh? Your I-Broadcast is in this time slot too, what's going on?"
Because of Qin Qing, Fang Zhirou had also been paying attention to Xu Yiran lately, so she naturally knew that he usually wouldn't take a shift at this hour.
Qin Qing checked the roster for the time slot and noticed that the streamers in the voice room who usually pulled in more gifts were all assigned to this exact slot.
"What's going on? Why are so many people in the same time slot?"
"Not sure, let me ask," Qin Qing replied, lowering her head.
She had Xu Yiran's contact info, so if she wanted to know something, she could just ask directly.
Fang Zhirou waited in eager anticipation for her news. The fan group had no idea what was happening either, and everyone was just guessing.
After seeing Xu Yiran's reply, Qin Qing's brows furrowed even tighter.
Sharing the information she received with Fang Zhirou, she said with puzzlement, "Are voice rooms this cutthroat now? Even with temporary tasks like this?"
"Who knows? Hanbaiyu hasn't done this before, but I do know other rooms have. Has our Hanbaiyu gotten this popular now? We can even take on these revenue-boosting room battles."
"Still, we aren't the main force this time; the heavy hitters behind the scenes probably are."
Qin Qing asked doubtfully, "Huh? Hanbaiyu has heavy hitters?"
Fang Zhirou smiled and said, "Of course. Don't look at how few top dogs our first room has right now; that's just because Hanbaiyu has been expanding recently and sent some big shots to other platforms to build up their fame."
"If you had come last month, you might have gotten to see that glorious phenomenon."
Fang Zhirou's eyes sparkled when she talked about these things.
Qin Qing nodded without saying anything, simply watching quietly.
[H. Yiran: Sisters, the schedule for this time slot is just to pad our hours, so everyone's task requirements aren't high. Hold back a bit, we've got a big battle ahead of us later.]
[Right, just clearing the task is enough. Everyone focus on showing support and try to pull in as many new fans as possible.]
This was a rare breakout moment, and everyone brought out their absolute best skills.
[H. Yiran: Is there any song anyone wants to hear? Let's gather your suggestions.]
He didn't mean anything else by this, it was just that Starlight was starting to sweat nervously.
[No way, Big Brother, shouldn't you take it easy?]
[*(Frantic)* Big Brother, with such a great breakout window, shouldn't we properly showcase ourselves and grow our follower count? *(Disappointed in his lack of ambition)*]
[Yeah, Big Brother, why don't you sing something you're good at instead?]
Seeing everyone's suggestions, Xu Yiran felt a bit helpless.
He thought to himself, did he really look that unreliable? A bunch of fans younger than him were worrying so much over him.
[H. Yiran: Don't worry, I'll only sing songs I know. I just wanted to poll which songs are easier to break out with.]
[Qing Ruxu: "Everywhere Kiss".]
Qin Qing didn't know what kind of mindset she was in when she typed out that song title.
With a complicated expression, she stared at the chat interface.
Upon seeing the song title, all of Starlight bombarded the chat with question marks.
[? Big Brother even knows this song?]
[Something's fishy, I always feel like Sister Qingqing and Big Brother share some little secrets I don't know about. *(Let me take a look)*]
Xu Yiran was also quite surprised. Wait a minute, this song wasn't on his playlist, was it?
Then how did she know he knew how to sing it?
[H. Yiran: I've never sung this song before.]
He didn't say he couldn't sing it, only that he had never sung it, cleverly playing a linguistic trick.
[Qing Ruxu: It's nothing, just thought your voice suits this song quite well.]
[Hey, now that you mention it, Big Brother, why don't you learn it when you have time? I'm kind of looking forward to it. *(Starry-eyed)*]
[*(Rubbing hands in eager anticipation)* Me too! Big Brother, won't you fulfill this little wish of ours?]
[Big Brother~ Sister Qingqing requested a song for once, can you bear to break your Starlight's hearts? *(Starry-eyed)*]
Remembering a promise he once made to someone, Xu Yiran lowered his gaze and asked them to pick another song.
[H. Yiran: Some other time when I have a chance. Isn't the most important thing right now to pick a familiar song? *(Shrugging)*]
[True. Big Brother, why don't you sing a Cantonese song instead? After what Sister Qingqing said, I think it would fit really well too. *(Starry-eyed)*]
