Chapter 53: I Won't Be Coming to the Live Stream Tonight

~15 min read 2,960 words

Looking at Lin Sui's earnest gaze.

A Fu thought for a moment, took out his phone, and transferred 888 to her right in front of Lin Sui.

Lin Sui's eyes crinkled with a smile, and just as she was about to give the bracelet to him, she heard him say slowly, "I still think it suits a girl better; it's a gift for you."

Lin Sui: "..."

This feeling...

It's like watching a tycoon from some country eat, making one want to press a hand to their forehead and exclaim, "Wow."

Lin Sui took the bracelet back, her eyes probing, "You're quite the pro at this."

Fuxi still didn't understand this younger brother of his well enough.

Who said A Fu didn't know how to flirt? He was far too good at it!

A Fu glanced at her, said nothing, and just lowered his head to eat in silence.

His cooking was actually quite good; at least that was what Lin Sui, who hadn't eaten much fine food, thought.

"Are you still going to rest tonight?" After an unknown amount of time had passed, A Fu suddenly asked.

She had taken leave from Live Streaming last night, and tonight she had to tidy up the room; was she going to take leave again?

Lin Sui thought of the pile of things in the study and had originally wanted to take another day off, but then she suddenly remembered—was it Tuesday already?

Tonight was the night for the Xiangcai Jie "Choosing a Consort" program to make its comeback!

"I'll stream tonight; it shouldn't be a problem."

A Fu nodded and didn't ask anything more.

He only urged, "The place where I live isn't far from here; you can send me a message if anything comes up."

"Mm-hmm, okay." Lin Sui kept eating without lifting her head.

A Fu: "Then I'll be going now."

Lin Sui: "Alright, take care on your way, Big Brother."

A Fu: "... Do you know how to wash dishes?"

Lin Sui: "I know how to do that."

A Fu: "Mm, good."

Lin Sui felt his question was a bit inexplicable; she glanced up at him and found him staring at her, his eyes carrying a hint of resentment, with no intention of leaving at all.

Lin Sui asked tentatively, "Do you need me to give you a ride?"

A Fu: "Don't you think you should give me a ride?"

How could a person be so heartless!

Lin Sui had a sudden realization, "Oh! Of course, of course, you should have said so earlier!"

Sigh, it was her fault for treating him like a buddy after hanging out for so long.

She had forgotten that this was her Top Fan Brother; she had to maintain the relationship and coax him!

She quickly shoveled the rest of the rice in her bowl, stood up, and beckoned to him, "Let's go, I'll take you."

Only then did A Fu, whose bottom seemed glued to the chair, deign to move.

He had originally intended to just have Lin Sui drop him off at the exit of the residential complex.

But as soon as they walked into the courtyard, he heard Lin Sui say, "Wait for me a second."

She walked toward the underground garage to the side.

A Fu was a bit surprised; he hadn't seen her driving when he arrived—had she actually bought a car?

It seemed what Lin Sui said in the Live Streaming Room couldn't be trusted.

Back then, she said she had been scammed by her Company after entering the entertainment industry and owed a huge debt.

Now it looked like she was buying Villas and cars; it felt like she had more money in her bank card than he did.

That was fine, too; sitting in the passenger seat of an acquaintance was more comfortable than sitting in a stranger's.

He waited at the entrance for a while and faintly heard a super-intense Qi-style DJ song drifting out from the garage.

What kind of car's music player was that loud? And so poorly soundproofed?

He suddenly had the urge to turn around and run.

Before he could act on it, Lin Sui slowly glided out of the garage on a pink Little Electric Donkey.

The tiny vehicle body blasted deafening DJ music, the rhythm incredibly intense.

Lin Sui was wearing a black helmet, bobbing her head; she actually looked quite cool.

Without a word, she parked the vehicle in front of A Fu, handed him a pink rabbit-ear helmet, and invited him, "Princess, please get on."

A Fu: "..."

He didn't take it for a long while, so Lin Sui turned her head and looked at him in confusion, "What's wrong? I gave you my favorite helmet!"

"I'd better just go home myself."

A Fu turned around and walked forward with his head down.

Lin Sui glided after him on the Little Electric Donkey, "Are you scared? Don't worry, in the world of the streets, they call me the God of Racing of Mount Akina; my driving skills are top-notch, get on!"

A Fu: "..."

"Hurry up, Big Brother; after I drop you home, I still have to Live Stream when I get back. It wouldn't be good to be late and keep Xiangcai Jie waiting."

Seeing how persistent she was, A Fu closed his eyes and reached out to take the helmet she was handing him, "Just drop me off at the complex exit."

Lin Sui: "That won't do; you cooked for me today, so I'll see this through to the end and get you home absolutely safely!"

"Give me the address!"

A Fu: "You can't get on the highway."

Lin Sui: "Eh, Ade Maps: I know a shortcut."

"..."

A Fu sat on it, and the Little Electric Donkey visibly sank a little.

But it wasn't a big problem.

Lin Sui twisted the throttle, and the vehicle began to move forward slowly, carrying its tacky EDM.

The music was so loud that the entire Villa area could probably hear it.

A Fu resigned himself to his fate and pulled down the visor of his helmet, trying to cover his face so it wouldn't be quite so embarrassing.

"Don't rush, maybe it hasn't been driven in a long time and the vehicle hasn't reacted yet. Give it some time, it will speed up. Come on! Mommy's little baby!"

A Fu: "... Nobody 'refuels' an electric scooter."

Lin Sui: "What are you saying, brother? It's an electric scooter, of course you charge it."

A Fu: "..." He wanted to say something but stopped, endured it again and again, and just let it go.

Lin Sui was in a pretty good mood, humming along to the music from time to time.

Her phone was clipped to the front for navigation, and she left the residential complex, merging into the flow of traffic.

A Fu's legs were bent with nowhere to put them, which was incredibly uncomfortable, and his eyes were squeezed shut, not daring to open them.

Because she couldn't get on the highway, Lin Sui had to take side roads, weaving through streets and alleys, leaving the sound of the BGM everywhere she went.

After finally passing a large bridge, the roaring sound of a motorcycle behind them drowned out her music.

A black motorcycle that looked very expensive followed slowly beside Lin Sui, and Lin Sui and A Fu looked at the rider at the same time.

When the rider saw A Fu's face, he was stunned for a moment, "The person in the back is a man?"

Seeing him wearing such a cute helmet, he had thought it was a girl, and plus Lin Sui in front was wearing shorts, her two fair legs truly alluring.

He subconsciously thought they were two sisters and even wanted to flirt a little.

Now seeing this situation, he instantly understood the relationship between the two.

He immediately mocked them: "Boyfriend and girlfriend? To think you'd let your girlfriend drive, how useless."

After saying that, he roared off, overtaking Lin Sui.

A Fu: "..." I told you it was embarrassing!

Lin Sui looked at the man's back and cursed, "Damn you, who are you looking down on? Once my brother A Fu makes a move, he can send me a Sports Car when we get home! Right, brother?"

A Fu's voice had a hint of a tremor, "If you're talking about that kind of Sports Car, then that's true."

Sending her eight or ten Sports Cars in the Live Streaming Room wouldn't be a problem.

"No! The more I think about it, the angrier I get!"

Lin Sui suddenly switched the music and reminded A Fu, "Sit tight, brother, we're going to overtake him!"

A Fu: "..." That person is riding a proper racing motorcycle.

Even if you ran this Little Electric Donkey until it fell apart, you wouldn't catch up.

Even though he said that, A Fu still grabbed the corner of Lin Sui's clothes tightly.

It was really getting terrifying.

"Then don't you worry about it!"

Lin Sui got excited and twisted the throttle to the maximum.

At this moment, the climax of the battle song began.

Deja Vu—

I've just been in this place before!

Higher on the street, and I know it's my time to go!

Calling you, and the search is a mystery!

Standing on my feet, it's so hard when I try to be me!

Ooh, ooh~

Everything was just right; Lin Sui had a serious expression, incarnating as a racing god, and the vehicle really did speed up quite a bit.

A Fu: "..."

He never wanted to ride in her vehicle again for the rest of his life.

After the bridge, there was a tunnel, and the BGM sounded even louder inside.

A Fu was already numb.

Out of the tunnel, at a turn ahead, Lin Sui suddenly stopped.

A Fu opened his eyes in confusion and saw that the motorcycle rider who had just mocked them had crashed at the turn; the person was fine, but the bike seemed broken.

Lin Sui slid the Little Electric Donkey over cheekily, "Be careful, buddy. People who ride your kind of bike might easily turn into 'sisters' if they aren't careful, and then you won't be able to flirt with girls anymore~"

Under the rider's glare, Lin Sui rode away triumphantly.

She asked A Fu smugly, "Tell me, did I overtake him or not?"

A Fu: "..." He suspected the other party's crash might have been cursed by Lin Sui in her heart.

This escort took over two hours to reach the entrance of A Fu's residential complex.

Even though he could have gotten home in half an hour by taxi.

A Fu lived in a high-end residential complex, and Lin Sui was planning to ride the Little Electric Donkey to the bottom of his building.

As a result, she was stopped by the security guard at the entrance, "Food delivery is not allowed in!"

Lin Sui: "..." How does her precious Little Electric Donkey look like a food delivery vehicle?!

"Let's just stop here..." A Fu said with a trembling voice, holding onto Lin Sui's shoulder as he got off the back seat.

The moment his feet touched the ground, his legs went soft, and he almost knelt down.

Lin Sui quickly helped him up, "Oi, brother, we're already at the gate, don't try to pull a scam now."

A Fu: "... Take your helmet, I won't be coming to the Live Streaming tonight."

Under the helmet, his face was pale; he did not look back, stumbling as he walked into the residential complex.

Lin Sui hugged her rabbit-eared helmet, looking innocent, "Does even an electric scooter cause motion sickness? This is the consequence of being a homebody who never goes out! Tsk."

She didn't think much of it; for an adult to be huddled in the back seat of such a vehicle, feet not touching the ground for two hours, it must have been quite uncomfortable.

She happily drove home by herself.

ˉ

It was 8:10 when she arrived home, and Lin Sui hurriedly started the Live Streaming on her phone.

The study hadn't been tidied up yet, so she just made do with her phone for the night.

"Sorry, brothers and sisters, I moved today, so I'm late."

LV42 Calling Handsome Guy: "I almost thought you weren't going to Live Stream today! I was about to scold you!"

Lin Sui: "Don't scold, don't scold, today isn't my main event."

LV42 Calling Handsome Guy: "What do you mean? Do you have to pick a time to be scolded?"

"Ahem..." Lin Sui cleared her throat, "Let me explain to the new friends: every Tuesday in this Live Streaming Room is sponsored by Xiangcai Jie. Today is the day the Xiangcai beauty-selection program airs again; everyone hasn't forgotten, right?"

LV36 Yan Yu: "..."

LV28 Chosen Novel Heroine: "New here, who is Xiangcai Jie?"

Lin Sui: "The boss of an entertainment Company, sisters who want to enter the entertainment industry are in luck!"

LV36 Yan Yu: "..."

Hearing it like this, it actually sounded quite high-class.

The big boss of an entertainment Company sponsored Lin Sui's Live Streaming Room every Tuesday?

What exactly was in her Live Streaming Room?

This thought suddenly popped into the minds of the new viewers.

LV14 April Day: "What's up with Brother Yan Yu today, he keeps posting ellipses?"

LV14 April Day: "Come to think of it, it's strange, Brother A Fu isn't here tonight, and Lin Dan Da hasn't been here for two days either."

LV47 Ke Ai Gui: "It's perfect that they aren't here!"

No one was competing with her for the top spot on the leaderboard!

【LV70 Yun Zhongke has entered the Live Streaming Room】

LV47 Ke Ai Gui: "..."

She felt as if she had lost all her strength and means.

Why did this Level 70 big shot show up again!

He didn't speak in the public chat, nor did he have any demands, inexplicably giving people a sense of oppression.

He could snatch her top spot in a split second.

It wasn't just Ke Ai Gui who thought so; Lin Sui thought so too.

He had never spoken, and his profile picture was just a generic landscape photo; Lin Sui couldn't fathom what kind of person he was and didn't dare to rashly mention him.

Big shots all had eccentric tempers; what if he didn't like people being too sycophantic?

Lin Sui ignored him and continued with her little program.

"Xiangcai Jie? Has Xiangcai Jie arrived!"

LV56 Xiangcai Destroyer: "I'm here, I'm at the Company, I've already screen-shared, let's start directly. As long as they meet the requirements, they can be signed as trainees immediately."

Lin Sui nodded, "Last week was the handsome guy session, today it's the beauty session. Our Xiangcai Jie is picky about looks, sisters who are confident, get on the mic!"

LV10 Ai Chi La Tiao: "I'm coming! Is it finally our turn as college students?"

Many sisters in the Live Streaming Room applied to join the mic, and Lin Sui pulled them up one by one.

She minimized her own screen, enlarged the other sisters', and then propped up her phone while she went to busy herself with her own affairs.

This was what she meant by it not being her main event, so scolding her was useless because she wasn't watching at all.

After riding the Little Electric Donkey out and blowing in the wind for half a day, Lin Sui felt her face was dry.

She went to wash up, applied a Mask, and while listening to the sisters sing, she did her skincare routine; it didn't delay her at all.

Xiangcai Jie occasionally gave a comment or left a badge, just like before.

The only difference was that last time, she was watching alone at home.

This time, she was watching with the entire Company's senior management and some artists who had nothing better to do.

Among them was Yan Yushu.

After returning from vacation and starting work, he still couldn't escape Lin Sui's Live Streaming Room.

And this time, his own boss was the one who brought him to watch it!

The boss wasn't even pretending anymore; wasn't she afraid that the incident with the steel wool ball from last time would be exposed!

In the conference room of Ji Wa Wa Entertainment, the aura of the woman in the main seat was so strong that the people next to her couldn't help but wipe their sweat.

Only a clueless Live Streamer like Lin Sui would call her Xiangcai Jie one mouthful after another.

People already called her Xiangcai Destroyer, which meant their boss didn't like cilantro at all!

And she called her Xiangcai Jie every day, was she crazy?

"Boss, since you value this Live Streamer so much, why don't we sign her?" someone next to Xiangcai Jie asked.

Xiangcai Jie glanced back at him, "Do you think I haven't asked? She has a previous agency, and I heard there's a dispute."

"A dispute between a Company and an artist is nothing more than a money issue. If we help her pay the money, wouldn't she come? If we don't act now, people from other companies might."

That person pointed to Yun Zhongke in the top spot on the screen.

"If I remember correctly, this person should be from the Yun Family Consortium."

The others looked over together, but only Yan Yushu saw his younger sister, Ke Ai Gui, who was trying her absolute best on the leaderboard yet still unable to surpass the person in first place, the more she tried, the more heartbreaking it became.

This spendthrift sister!

Giving money to Lin Sui again!
