They think I’m dull and boring.#\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In reality, we’re just over a hundred years old. Using the Star Network is child’s play. We grandpas have our own social circles, you know.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the grandmas! We have our own private groups for daily fashion, too!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The discussion went further and further off-topic until everyone forgot what the original hot topic was even about.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, an anonymous user made a post—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>#I feel so bad for you all. We’ve all been used as tools, haven’t we?#\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>#There’s more to this ’follow’ business than meets the eye, you know.#\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oh, right. That’s when everyone remembered the whole ’follow’ business.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the conversation pulled back on track, someone asked what was so complicated about it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The person who spoke up was a widower. His son and daughter-in-law had both died in the great Mine Star disaster, leaving him with only his grandson.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had painstakingly raised the boy all these years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Today, his grandson, who was a student at Federation University, had suddenly shared a livestreamer with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man didn’t know how to work these things, but since his grandson sent it, he immediately followed a tutorial and tinkered with it until he figured it out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His grandson told him that this was a food livestreamer he’d found on the Star Network whose cooking was incredible, and he hoped his grandpa could enjoy the delicious food with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After learning about Jiang Qiuqiu’s viewer traffic, her popularity, her viral fame, and her daily income, the old man was astonished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’These new-era methods are really something else.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Later, while they were chatting, his grandson casually mentioned that ’follow’ event happening in Jiang Qiuqiu’s community.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The strategy was to get family members who don’t use the Star Network—grandpas, grandmas, parents, and so on—to follow her. This would eliminate potential rivals and guarantee a chance to eat her food.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He initially thought it was just a silly joke, but when he checked in with his own circle of old friends, he discovered the whole thing had already gone viral.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He relayed the whole story just as it was, without any embellishment. His words were plain and simple, but he added one final line at the end—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>#My dear grandson said this streamer’s food is truly delicious and highly praised. He wants to share it and eat with me.#\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a subtle little brag.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If his post was a brag, then the grandpas on the other side—the ones who had been used as ’tools’—were not happy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’What?! Other people’s kids know to share good food with their grandfathers, but our own grandkids are secretly hogging it all for themselves!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’They didn’t say a word!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Yang was furious, too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So furious, in fact, that he went straight to his old army buddies’ group chat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>#What kind of little brat treats his old man like this?#\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>#I even asked him what was going on, and he wouldn’t say a single word!#\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>#Got some nerve now, has he? Coming here to pull a fast one on me!#\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The group of grandpas was in an uproar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it wasn’t like they could just give the kids a beating. This was a lawful society, after all. Hitting children was completely outdated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if they couldn’t spank them, they still had to teach them a lesson.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They all put their heads together and finally decided on a plan—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They would pull the rug out from under them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Hmph! We’ll see who’s using who as a tool!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Things escalated quickly on the Star Network and in the online communities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While Jiang Qiuqiu and Meimei were looking at the community data, they noticed a flood of people who had followed on a terminal and were now ’checking in’ with comments.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two were on a call, discussing it. \"They’re always coming up with strategies I’d never think of,\" Jiang Qiuqiu said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Young people are full of ideas when they get together,\" Meimei replied. \"This one is getting a lot of traction. It might even go viral outside our community.\" She was quite optimistic about the post.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Qiuqiu hummed in agreement, then suddenly asked, \"Will all these new accounts affect the stream’s activity metrics?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not at all. Plenty of people follow but don’t watch. Your follower-to-viewer ratio is exceptionally high already. Even if it dropped by half, it would still be incredible.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’It’s a minor issue.’\u003C\u002Fp>",753,"2026-05-29T04:22:35.266Z","2026-06-01T04:29:08.487Z",1,"novelbin.me","73f6d5c312f0fb7cf4e5bdde41d37036753dd1a34d26acbc21a0f3086575d34a","her-food-livestream-broke-the-galaxy-chapter-87","her-food-livestream-broke-the-galaxy-chapter-85",517,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fher-food-livestream-broke-the-galaxy-cover.jpg"]
