Protagonist:
Lu Feng
"Forget it, forget it, who told them to have such good business here?"
Pang Lingling quickly adjusted her mood, the dissatisfaction in her heart gradually dissipating.
Now that she had calmed down and thought about it carefully, she felt that Lu Feng's shop indeed had the capital to be arrogant.
Among the current internet celebrities on short videos, as long as they are streamers related to eating, there isn't a single one who doesn't know about Lu Family Restaurant.
Pang Lingling patted her boyfriend's arm, her tone becoming firm again: "Let's do as Boss Lu said, we can still afford a meal's money, anyway from one live stream the gifts we receive alone are much more than the meal cost."
"Then tomorrow night we'll really live stream at Lu Family Restaurant?"
Seeing her mood had eased, the young man immediately hid the complaints on his face and asked Pang Lingling.
"Of course, during this period those peers who went to his shop to live stream, every session they gained tens of thousands of followers, and the short videos filmed at his shop also have incredibly fierce traffic. Several who originally had fewer fans than us have now surpassed us by quite a lot. We can't miss this opportunity, we can't be left behind by our peers."
Pang Lingling nodded, then added: "Making money, no shivering!"
"What you said is right too."
The young man reacted quickly; he knew his girlfriend cared most about being surpassed by peers, so he immediately followed her words: "Baby you're the best! None of those peers can compare to you! You're a natural-born Big Stomach King! If we live stream here tomorrow, we'll definitely gain more fans than those peers!"
He was worried Pang Lingling was still angry about what happened just now, so after speaking he added: "That boss's bad attitude doesn't matter either. Anyway we'll leave after the live stream. At worst we never come back again. Anyway we don't lack this one shop."
"Mm, then it's decided. Tomorrow night we'll live stream at his place."
Pang Lingling's face finally showed a bit of a smile.
She glanced at the boyfriend beside her, then recalled the scene at the airport today, and couldn't help but urge: "This time you prepare properly for me, don't be unreliable again. Do all the preparations before going. Also, don't forget to charge the power bank, don't let the phone run out of battery during the live stream and cause another mishap."
"Baby rest assured, this time definitely won't!"
The young man patted his chest guaranteeing, saying confidently: "I prepared three power banks this time, and brought a small fill light. Guaranteed to film you beautifully!"
Actually with Pang Lingling's body type, she doesn't have much relation to the word "beautiful".
But as her boyfriend, the two had been in love for many years. Although they usually bickered, their relationship had always been good.
It truly verified that saying once again: In a lover's eyes, even an ordinary woman looks like Xi Shi.
"Mm, that's good. This time you work hard. After the live stream ends, I'll buy you that RTX 4090 graphics card you've been wanting."
Pang Lingling nodded, smiling at the young man.
"Really? Thanks baby!"
The young man's face was full of surprise. If he weren't still carrying large and small bags, he really would have wanted to hug Pang Lingling and take a bite.
This Pang Lingling, just like Xiao Feilong, Gu Manman and those few who often come to Lu Feng's shop to eat, are all streamers on the short video food track.
But unlike Xiao Feilong and them who gain fans through recommendations and shop exploration, her difference lies in the fact that she became popular through her ability to eat.
At this time last year, Pang Lingling's name still didn't have the word "Fat" in it. Although she wasn't tall, her appearance could still be considered cute.
She posted many videos on short videos, tried all kinds of types, but they were always lukewarm.
Until that Instant Noodle Challenge video that made her famous in one battle, which made her explode in popularity.
Pang Lingling's highest record was eating 20 packs of instant noodles in one meal, drinking every last drop of the soup in the pot.
After eating, not only did her expression not change, she even drank two large bottles of Cola.
After this video was posted, she gained over 500,000 fans overnight.
It was also from that video onwards that Pang Lingling officially embarked on the mukbang track, becoming a famous Big Stomach King streamer on short videos.
Since then, Pang Lingling locked in on this "Big Stomach King" persona, and it went completely out of control. The amount she ate became more and more. Every video attracted quite a few viewers.
But unlike some Big Stomach King bloggers who rely on editing or induced vomiting and such fake eating, whether it was live streaming or filming short videos afterwards, Pang Lingling really ate.
This authenticity and sincerity of hers also made her weight rise in a straight line like a rocket.
Before Pang Lingling became popular, she was just a cute girl weighing just over 100 jin with a well-proportioned figure.
As she went further and further down the mukbang road, her appetite also became larger and larger.
Those old fans who followed her from the beginning could be said to have watched Pang Lingling go all the way from a weight of just over 100 jin to the current 180-plus jin.
Last night, Pang Lingling live-streamed eating a large basin of Dumplings in her Live Stream Room. Not long after starting, a large bunch of fans and passersby poured in.
That night also just happened to be when the latest episode of "Late Night Food" Program aired. The program broadcast interviews with Lu Family Restaurant's diners and surrounding hotel owners' comments on Lu Family Restaurant.
After the program aired, it quickly stirred up another huge wave online.
Although there was still a portion of netizens expressing disbelief, this episode of "Late Night Food" Program indeed made a considerable portion of netizens turn from haters to fans of Lu Family Restaurant.
Among that group of people who poured into Pang Lingling's Live Stream Room, there were quite a few Lu Family Restaurant fans.
They brushed the barrage one after another, saying they wanted to watch Pang Lingling go to Lu Family Restaurant to live stream and eat all the dishes in the shop.
The Top Fan directly brushed several of the most expensive gifts. Rockets, planes, yachts and such flew non-stop in the Live Stream Room.
Facing the fans' unanimous request, plus the support of those wealthy financial backers, Pang Lingling who was always happy to satisfy her fans immediately slapped the table and agreed.
After ending the stream that night, she and that friend, the two of them, did a simple investigation of Lu Family Restaurant.
The next day the two booked plane tickets and flew to Jiangcheng. It was precisely because of this that they had tonight's advance visit to Lu Family Restaurant.
Only after they came to Jiangcheng, not only did they fail to catch today's Business Hours, but their proposed requirements were also refused by Lu Feng. The development of things was not as smooth as they had imagined.
Pang Lingling walked to the Food Street exit, couldn't help but turn around and look once more at Lu Family Restaurant's direction, thinking in her heart: This boss is so unromantic, and so rigid. He definitely doesn't have a girlfriend.
Of course the reason she thought this was entirely because she held a grudge after being refused by Lu Feng just now.
Actually Lu Feng's popularity online is very high. Many female netizens take Lu Feng as the standard for finding a boyfriend in the future.
