Chapter 260: New Voting (Seeking Support)

After glancing at the comments section, Qin Yun let it go—the voting deadline was the 31st of this month, no need to rush yet; he'd prepare once the trend became clear.

With time still early, he pulled out paper and brush and kept drawing.

Over half a month had passed, and he now had a pile of sketches; he found them interesting, though he wasn't sure if netizens would like them.

Since it was a comic, the story began in childhood, depicting the time when his father was still alive—a quiet wish to see his father reappear in his life.

After sketching a few more pages, he carefully lay down beside Su Huan.

The night passed in silence; when Qin Yun woke, the room was filled with fragrance.

He stepped out of the room to find Su Huan busy in the kitchen.

"Brush your teeth, wash your face—dinner's ready. Today we're having tossed noodles and wontons."

Seeing Qin Yun emerge from the bedroom, Su Huan poked her head out to say it.

Qin Yun nodded, swiftly brushed his teeth and washed his face, then rushed to the kitchen to steal a kiss.

Sensing the man's adoration, Su Huan offered no resistance—only genuine happiness.

Having a man who loved her so deeply, she felt not just shy, but mostly joyful—joy that he loved every part of her.

"Mm, wait a moment—the wontons are about to fall apart."

"Hehe, if the wontons fall apart, I'll eat you instead."

"Stop it!" Su Huan quickly fished out the wontons and gave him a look, "Behave yourself—pull out the noodles, the sauce is over there."

"Got it."

When the two sat down at the table, Su Huan took a bite and suddenly said, "You're planning to go live?"

Qin Yun nodded: "Yeah, I've rested long enough."

"These five places of yours are all extreme," Su Huan's eyes flickered with concern. "You don't have to push yourself to the limit every time—try something more relaxed. I'm sure your fans would also enjoy seeing you do ordinary activities."

"Hmm, I'll try next time," Qin Yun didn't believe every livestream had to be an extreme challenge.

"I just checked—the top two are Mount Zhufeng and the African savanna. At this rate, one of these two will win."

Qin Yun smiled: "Mount Zhufeng isn't hard for me, but the African savanna—that's a paradise for wildlife, home to the greatest variety of wild animals on Earth. Even I have to be extra careful."

"I heard online it's a bit chaotic over there—lots of armed groups? Could there be human threats?"

"Don't worry, it should be safe."

Qin Yun's reassurance had no effect; Su Huan now secretly hoped netizens would vote for Mount Zhufeng—after all, its climbing difficulty was lower than Yaomei Peak, and if Qin Yun could summit Yaomei Peak, Mount Zhufeng would be a breeze.

After breakfast, Su Huan went to work—it was Monday.

As CEO of the company, if she was in Hangzhou, she had to go to the office.

But the chairman didn't need to—she could just stay home, draw, watch TV, scroll her phone, as carefree as she liked.

After Su Huan left, Qin Yun drove to Bao Li Tian Yi to finish yesterday's unfinished tasks—receiving the large ordered items one by one, occasionally taking photos to send to Su Huan, asking for her guidance on placement.

By noon, all the large items had been received, and the home's decorations were mostly set. After walking around the house and filming a video, Su Huan sent a thumbs-up emoji and a voice message.

"Honey, Li Jie came to Hangzhou—let's have dinner together tonight."

As Qin Yun prepared to reply, Deng Chao's voice call popped up.

"Hey, Brother Qin, busy?"

"Not too much. You're in Hangzhou?"

"Yeah, want to have dinner tonight? To thank you for your help last time."

Qin Yun instantly understood: "Haha, you're planning a promotion."

"Hahaha."

Qin Yun thought—it was his new home, perfect for a fire-up, a housewarming.

"Why not come over? I'll cook."

Deng Chao hesitated: "Won't that be an inconvenience?"

"Inconvenience my ass—come or not? I'm heading out to buy groceries now."

"Alright then—send me the address. I'll come tonight with my wife—oh, and my kids too."

"Got it."

After hanging up, Qin Yun told Su Huan, sent Deng Chao the location, then went out to buy groceries.

Near a market, he grabbed a simple rice bowl from "Jiangxi Fried Rice Noodles King." Opening Weibo to check the voting, he saw that in just one night, votes had hit eight million—many had voted for all five options, but Mount Zhufeng and the African savanna led by far.

Mount Zhufeng was currently ahead, but only by a few ten thousand votes.

The comments under this post were overflowing—dense, endless, impossible to scroll through.

Overnight, this vote had quietly climbed onto the trending list, its popularity absurdly high.

Even top-tier celebrities couldn't match this level—his traffic was so hot it made people envious.

Some entertainment companies had approached him, wanting to launch him as an idol, even offering money, analyzing how to maximize his traffic's profit—but Qin Yun didn't care at all and rejected them all outright.

These companies could only sigh and stare enviously at his traffic, wishing they could graft it onto their own artists.

After these livestreams, Qin Yun was already financially secure, so his desire to earn more money wasn't strong.

He had low material desires; once money reached a certain level, it was just a number.

"Why are you voting for Mount Zhufeng? Brother Qin already summited Yaomei Peak."

"Yeah, vote for the African savanna—see some foreign scenery."

"I watched the Yaomei Peak summit footage several times—I found it fascinating, so I voted for Mount Zhufeng."

"The African savanna is thrilling—predators everywhere, extreme environment, one misstep and you could get attacked by lions or hyenas."

"You guys picked decent options—I picked Norway, and hardly anyone voted for it."

"I registered several new accounts—all voted for the African savanna."

"Trust me—vote for the African savanna. Based on my understanding of Brother Qin's luck, he'll face constant danger and never have an easy time."

Looking at all sorts of comments, many from big V accounts and celebrities, all boosted to the top by traffic.

Qin Yun even saw He Laoshi from Hunan TV leaving him a comment.

"I voted for the African savanna, looking forward to seeing Brother Qin dancing with wolves on the African savanna."

Qin Yun thought for a moment and replied beneath that comment: "Wish Brother He's dream comes true."

Netizens instantly flooded the thread, bursting into laughter.

"Brother Qin is so mischievous."

"Hahaha, killed me—so Brother Qin was lurking."

"Brother Qin is too funny."

At that moment, He Laoshi was preparing for a singer's recording session; his phone buzzed, he opened it, saw Qin Yun's reply, and couldn't help smiling.

Liu Xianhua beside him, curious, asked: "He Laoshi, what's so funny?"

He Laoshi gestured with his phone: "Someone replied to me. By the way, Henry, hurry up and vote on Weibo."

"Vote? What vote?" Liu Xianhua didn't refuse, pulling out his phone. "Is someone asking you to vote?"

"No, Brother Qin's vote—Brother Qin's livestream vote."

Saying this, he took Liu Xianhua's phone directly, searched for Qin Yun's name, and found Liu Xianhua indeed didn't follow him.

"This one—vote for the African savanna."

Liu Xianhua studied it closely, astonished to find the man's follower count had reached a terrifying 120 million—more than ten times his own.

"Jesus, that many followers—who is he?"

"You don't know Brother Qin?" He Laoshi was stunned. "Did you just get online?"

"Uh… do I really have to know him?"

"Forget that for now—just vote first, then I'll tell you."

After Liu Xianhua voted for the African savanna, He Laoshi told him to open Douyin and go to Qin Yun's homepage.

"There… you'll see for yourself who Brother Qin is."

Saying this, He Laoshi went to reply to Qin Yun's comment.

But as Liu Xianhua looked, he nearly forgot his own business—only when someone came to find him did he finally leave Qin Yun's homepage.

Immediately, he clicked follow, then rushed to Weibo to follow, then followed on X, Instagram, YouTube, Twitch—becoming a diehard fan of Qin Yun.

There were many others like him.

Especially celebrities, with strong influence—some even posted directly on their Weibo, urging fans to vote for Mount Zhufeng or the African savanna.

As a result, the popularity of this vote kept rising.

On the trending list, it went up and never came down.

……

"Boom—!"

As the door closed, several figures entered one after another.

Qin Yun stuck his head out of the kitchen and immediately saw Deng Chao, Sun Li, and two teenagers.

He greeted: "Brother Chao, Sister Li, you're here. I'm almost done—go wash up, dinner's ready. These are Deng Deng and Xiao Hua, right? Don't be shy, make yourselves at home."

The two children politely called him "Uncle," especially Deng Chao's son, who already looked like a young man.

Both inherited their parents' looks and were very good-looking.

"You keep busy—I won't be polite."
