Volume 1, Chapter 34: The Social Gathering

Yifan: "Hello, Yan Suisui. I know who you are."

"Hello, Sister Xianyin, hello Suisui."

Xianyin brought in two male streamers. Yu Suisui couldn't help but sigh at the sight of the other male streamer's face; it really was a small world. Wasn't this Nansheng, who she had played with yesterday?

"Hello, Nansheng. We played together yesterday, didn't we?"

Nansheng: "Suisui, little sister, I think you've got the wrong person? This is our first time meeting."

Yu Suisui explained with a smile, "We played together yesterday. I was Meimei."

Nansheng’s eyes darted around as if he were trying to recall who this "Meimei" was. Finally, with the help of his fans, he remembered. "Oh, it’s you! Are you running two accounts?"

Yu Suisui clarified, "No, I was just substitute-streaming for Meimei yesterday. Sister Xianyin is familiar with that situation."

"Oh, got it. A penalty?"

"Yeah."

Xianyin clapped her hands in the livestream. "Right! Everyone knows each other except for Yifan, so I’ll only introduce Yifan."

"Yifan is a 'trash-talking' streamer similar to Lin Hang. The only difference is that Brother Fan is incredibly skilled at cursing. If your parents have a revive item, feel free to come find our Brother Fan, you little haters."

Yifan cupped his hands in a bold, hearty gesture. "Suisui, little sister, if anyone hates on you in the future, just come to me. Your brother will teach them a lesson."

Yu Suisui laughed. "Really? Then thank you, Brother Yifan."

Xianyin: "Since everyone is acquainted, shall we do a quick round?"

Nansheng: "Team battle? Or individual?"

Yifan: "If it’s a team, I want to be with Suisui. I’m the best at clinging to a golden thigh."

Xianyin retorted with a laugh, "Since you said that, I definitely won't let you have your way. Let’s go by total votes. The person with the fewest votes at the end follows orders. No restrictions on PK props."

"Sister Yin, do you have a grudge against me?"

Xianyin: "Stop barking like a dog. Everyone knows the strength of your brothers and sisters. Ten minutes on the clock, get ready!"

[Sang You: I’m going to check them out. I feel like Nansheng and Xianyin are the hardest to deal with.]

[Many Fish: That shouldn't be right. When Nansheng played against the Princess yesterday, he didn't pull many votes.]

[Towards the Clouds: His big sister, SaSa, has some strength. He’s played with Hang-zi before.]

[Nansheng’s team most likely didn't prepare votes yesterday, but they probably did today.]

[Nansheng’s big sister plays very dirty; she’s vicious at stealing towers.]

[(Admin) Alan: Let’s push our score high so the other side can’t steal it.]

[(Admin) Late Breeze: Then you take the first half, I’ll defend the tower in the second half.]

[(Admin) Alan: Agreed.]

Yu Suisui watched as her big brothers arranged everything and wanted to settle into being a "salted fish" (lazy), but her intentions were too obvious.

[Towards the Clouds: Little sister, what are you doing? Beg for votes! Don't you want to win?]

Yu Suisui pouted, feeling very embarrassed. "Alright, I get it."

"Little Wheat Ears, all troops out! If you have hearts, send some to Suisui; if not, just tap the screen to like. Let’s charge! We have to take first place!"

[Sang You: Little Wheat Ears, charge!]

[Many Fish: Charge!]

['Towards the Clouds' gifted 'Honor Meteor' *2] (7,999 Cat Coins)

['Sang You' gifted 'Love Flower' *10] (199 Cat Coins)

['Many Fish' gifted 'Summer Lounge' *2] (1,999 Cat Coins)

"I didn't expect Suisui to have so many Little Wheat Ears already. I'm so happy!"

[Sang You: Our Princess is super cute.]

[Towards the Clouds: Little sister, your type has incredible fan-attraction capability. In short, you appeal to both men and women.]

[(Admin) Alan: Suisui is truly very cute.]

[(Admin) Late Breeze: And look whose favorite streamer she is.]

In Xianyin’s livestream:

"Changye, you’d better put in some effort. It’s really embarrassing to keep losing to Daddy Late. Ze-ge, can you be impulsive for me just once?"

"There are 30,000 people in our stream. Is there anyone who has been watching your Yin for a long time? Come give your Yin a free follow and send a badge. Give me three days; if you still don't like my stream after three days, you can unfollow, okay?"

['Changye' gifted 'World of Ten Thousand Flowers' *5] (30,000 Cat Coins)

['Fuze' gifted 'Dragon Rider Ranger' *6] (30,000 Cat Coins)

Under Xianyin’s call, the fans' enthusiasm in the livestream soared, and gifts kept pouring in.

In Nansheng’s livestream:

"For this first win, is there any big sister willing to start us off with a Carnival?"

Nansheng stood up, walked to the wall, and turned around. "I’m counting to three. Is there any big sister who will take the lead?"

"Three! Two! One! Carnival!" He counted while leaning toward the screen and making a 'seven' gesture.

['SaSaSaSa' gifted 'Diamond Carnival' *3] (30,000 Cat Coins)

"Who? Who is so generous? It’s my Sister SaSa! Thank you, Sister SaSa!!"

"Is there a second sister willing to follow in Sister SaSa’s footsteps? Another Carnival!"

In Yifan’s livestream:

"Everyone in this match is very strong. Brothers and sisters, we’re playing purely for face today. The top three are already over 100,000. It wouldn't look good if we had no votes, right?"

"We aren't doing any of that fake stuff. We’re chasing with scattered votes. Is there anyone willing to send your Yifan a rocket? Come on!"

[Dog Yifan, you've got some nerve asking for so much right off the bat. Just wait to get crushed.]

[Manman: Very good, this request is acceptable. Big sister will satisfy you.]

[A Journey of Mountains and Rivers: Everyone is living off 'love votes,' you’re going to be the death of me.]

[Mingfei: The 'love' big brothers of those two little women are too ruthless. I really can't beat them.]

[You should restrain yourself, Comrade Yifan. You keep begging for votes, I’m going to go check out the beauties on the other side.]

None of the four dropped the ball; they were all seriously campaigning for votes, determined to take first place.

Currently, Xianyin was far in the lead, wearing a smug expression as she switched to taunting mode. "What’s up, Nansheng? You’ve been begging for votes forever and you’re still in third? Is your Empress Sa spent? What are you doing? Stop streaming and go home to farm, kid."

As Xianyin spoke, she gave a thumbs-down gesture, which was highly insulting.

"Sister will give you a chance. One minute on the clock. Beg for votes. If you can’t get them, hold your head with both hands, squat down, and say, 'Big sister~ I was wrong~'"

Nansheng was so angry he blew at the bangs on his forehead. "Sister SaSa, hit her! She’s actually provoking us like this. Is this something a human would do? She’s clearly slapping our team in the face. Let’s crush them in one minute, sisters!"

['SaSaSaSa' gifted 'End of the Gods' *4] (50,000 Cat Coins)

"Sister SaSa is awesome! I declare you the most beautiful woman in the world!"

"What are you shouting about? Who did you say was spent? Even if your big brother is spent, my sister won't be! What kind of strength do you have, Xianyin? Stop putting on an act. If I may say so, of everyone here, you’re the best at acting!"

Seeing the score pull ahead, Nansheng started taunting again, but his taunts were dirty and immediately angered the big brothers.

"I’m not talking about strength, but you really have the nerve to accept people calling you an 'Electric Mother' with a score like this, Yan Suisui? What qualifications do you have? You keep saying your 'love' big brother has points, but I think this is about all he has."

"To be honest, that’s all there is to it. Are your 'love' big brothers cowards? Where are the points?! Are they all dead? If you don't have the ability, don't try to front. Stop acting like a big spender online! You should stop streaming too; take your brothers and go home to farm~"

It was common for streamers to taunt and provoke in PKs, and big brothers usually ignored it. But the big brothers on Yu Suisui’s side had clearly taken it to heart and were quite infuriated.
