Chapter 163: If You're Jealous of Me, Just Say So

"My sister Gu Xing is truly impressive!" Lin Sui nodded, quite agreeing with her words.

Having just secured a victory, she deserved to be praised.

"Not only is he handsome, but he's also generous. As live streamers, it's hard not to fall for him!"

LV70 Gu Xing Ru Huai: "You admit I'm handsome now? Haha, I knew you had a crush on me."

Last time he said that, she had retorted.

Was she willing to admit it now?

Yu Qingyu changed the subject, "I lost, how much do I need to gift?"

"Just gift whatever you see fit; I only won by luck this time."

Lin Sui tossed the difficult question back to her, "I only suggested this penalty because I heard that your husband doesn't mind spending a little money. Just play for fun, Yu Jie, no need to take it too seriously."

Yu Qingyu: "..."

The words were spoken nicely, seemingly saving her face, but in reality, it was all a trap.

What was this about hearing her husband was rich and therefore proposing this penalty?

This was just using the word "rich" to put her on the spot.

If she gave too little, she wouldn't live up to the word "rich" and would be scolded by the fans.

If she gave too much, she felt it wasn't worth it.

She really knew how to make things difficult for people.

Yu Qingyu thought about it for a moment, and in front of the audience from both Live Streaming Rooms, she asked directly: "Will ten 'Hua Zi' do?"

She threw the problem back at her.

Normally, ten 'Hua Zi' was not a small amount; it was already tens of thousands of yuan.

If Lin Sui agreed, everything would be fine; if she didn't, it would be easy to leave others with the impression that she was greedy.

Lin Sui smiled and immediately thanked her: "That would be more than enough!"

"I didn't expect Yu Jie to be so generous. Usually, when I play with others, I get at most two, but you can actually give ten! Thank you, thank you~"

Yu Qingyu: "..."

What was this now?

She was actually so sincere...

She still felt like there was a trap.

Yu Qingyu couldn't quite figure it out, so she hurriedly asked her husband to go over and gift Lin Sui ten, then exited the joint stream with Lin Sui.

Having lost the first PK after returning to Live Streaming, Yu Qingyu actually had no mood to continue.

But there were still so many viewers in the Live Streaming Room, so she had no choice but to continue.

In the subsequent Live Streaming PKs, she connected with some newcomers, but she firmly refused to let them make other demands; operations like picking a 'big brother' to come out and gift separately were not allowed!

If they could play, they would play; if not, she would change opponents.

She could not lose again!

Fortunately, things went smoothly afterward, and she didn't lose again.

Until the stream ended, Yu Qingyu tidied up the Live Streaming Room and prepared to leave the Company to go home.

Just as she stepped out, she bumped into Ji Mo, who was also coming out of a Live Streaming Room.

Ji Mo squinted his eyes and greeted her, "Yo, Yu Jie, finished your stream? I heard you lost your first PK today?"

"Were you playing against Lin Sui?"

Yu Qingyu didn't even want to acknowledge him, let alone look at him, so she picked up her pace and walked away.

Ji Mo took long strides to follow beside her, his tone mocking, "You have a better idea of things now, right? All kinds of new Live Streamers are like crucian carp crossing the river, and among them are many carp that can leap over the dragon gate."

Yu Qingyu turned her head to look at him, "What are you trying to say?"

Ji Mo smiled, "There are only so many viewers who love watching Live Streaming; not many will wait for you forever."

Stopping her stream to get married and have children during her peak period was her biggest mistake.

Well... it couldn't be said to be entirely wrong; after all, everyone has their own pursuits. What if her pursuit was just to be a rich wife?

But she could have been a rich wife for the rest of her life, living a carefree existence.

Now that she had run back to Live Stream, snatching popularity and resources, and throwing her weight around relying on her status as a 'senior', that was where she was in the wrong.

She was just old; she didn't inexplicably become a veteran just because she was older.

Whether she could keep up with current internet trends was another question.

"What are you being so sarcastic about?" Yu Qingyu rolled her eyes, "No one waiting for me? I had over two hundred thousand viewers in my Live Streaming Room today!"

Ji Mo: "How many of them stayed only because your husband was sending out Red Envelopes in the Live Streaming Room?"

Yu Qingyu: "..."

Yes, the reason she lost to Lin Sui today was precisely because of this.

This was her first solo Live Streaming session since her return. To boost her popularity, her husband had been sending out Red Envelopes in the Live Streaming Room to keep people there.

At that time, there were many strangers with unclear intentions in the Live Streaming Room, constantly spamming and urging for Red Envelopes.

Without these perks to hold them, who knows how many fewer people would have been in her Live Streaming Room.

The key was that after sending out so many Red Envelopes, she didn't even get a word of thanks, and she still had to be scolded by those who didn't manage to grab one.

When did the atmosphere in the Live Streaming Room become like this?

"If you're jealous of me, just say so." Yu Qingyu took a deep breath and entered the elevator, "I don't believe you've never used such traffic-driving methods."

"I am indeed quite jealous of you." Ji Mo followed her into the elevator.

"To have such good resources as soon as you return. You won't be asking the Company to reimburse the money your husband spent on Red Envelopes today, will you?" Ji Mo tilted his head.

The money spent on Red Envelopes in the Live Streaming Room to drive traffic isn't necessarily paid out of pocket; as long as the traffic-driving effect is good, you can get reimbursed by the Company.

"Do you not know who I married? Does this little bit of money need to be reimbursed?"

Yu Qingyu sneered, her heart gradually beginning to feel irritable.

She really, truly dislikes this person, Ji Mo.

No emotional intelligence is just no emotional intelligence!

Every word he says sounds like he is being passive-aggressive toward her.

She doesn't even know when she ever offended him.

"Oh my~ Brother-in-law is so rich." Ji Mo's bitterness and sarcasm were written all over his face, "Since he's so rich, why did he only gift Lin Sui ten 'Rockets' for the punishment just now?"

Yu Qingyu blurted out, "Do you think ten 'Rockets' is a small amount?"

Ji Mo: "Then do you think that big sister, who adds a hundred 'Rockets' at a time the moment she makes a move, would care about your ten?"

Yu Qingyu: "..."

She had just been thinking that Lin Sui's final thanks sounded very sincere, yet she vaguely felt something was off.

Is this where the problem lies?

That Gu Xing sister just now tipped so much and only ranked sixth, although she might move up a spot or two later.

From this point, it is not hard to imagine how shocking the moves of the top six must be.

So, Lin Sui might really not care about these ten.

Was that thanks just now a veiled jab at her, implying that the whole world knows she married a rich top-ranked big brother, yet the big brother is so stingy with his spending?

Is she that calculating?

"Pregnancy makes you slow for three years, sister; you can't keep up with the thinking of young people anymore." Ji Mo took out his phone and flipped to a certain app, "The drama has already started."

"How to evaluate Yu Qingyu losing to Lin Sui in her first official Live Streaming PK after returning?"

"As everyone knows, Lin Sui is a Live Streamer who purely wants money, yet the opposing Live Streamer's husband is a super big brother; he only sent ten 'Rockets' when she lost. What level is this super big brother's family fortune at?"

Words like "stingy" in various forms under the post came into view.

Yu Qingyu tried hard to calm her mood, "She herself agreed to it; you netizens are the ones worrying about it."

"Isn't that just how netizens are?" Ji Mo put away his phone and smiled, "A small matter can be magnified countless times."

"For example... Lin Sui might have been speaking the truth at the time, and was also sincerely thanking you, with no other meaning."

"But right now, you must be blaming Lin Sui in your heart for why she didn't ask for more at the time, and instead chose to thank you, leaving you to be scolded by netizens afterward."

Yu Qingyu: "..."
