Chapter 13.2
On the day of the live stream, under the remote guidance of a stylist, Shen Ci dressed casually and comfortably. Even with a hat and mask on, he still exuded a youthful charm. He stood at the door of his house, took a deep breath, and pressed the “Start” button on his phone.
“Hello, everyone! I’m Shen Ci.”
Shen Ci greeted the camera with a smile and walked into his artist car, ready to depart.
On the screen, a wave of bullet comments passed by quickly, and to Shen Ci’s surprise, most of them were compliments and praise. Just a few days ago, he had been at the center of a controversy, and he had expected a lot of people to come and criticize him.
“Wow, so full of energy! Let big sis have a Mua!”
“The oversized clothing looks so cute and slim on Xiao Ci! If I wear it, I’d look like a bulky mess…”
“Xiao Ci, when you go to the amusement park, remember to try the ice cream at the entrance! It’s super delicious!”
…
Shen Ci found it strange and didn’t know whether these were comments from Brother Zhang’s purchased water army or were by real fans. Instead of dwelling on it, he decided to respond with a smile to several of the comments.
However, the haters inevitably showed up in large numbers, relentlessly bringing up the fabricated negative rumors about Shen Ci from a few days ago and trying to provoke him to act arrogant or irresponsible.
The flood of negative comments was glaring, in that the more the main target would respond to them, the more aggressive they would become. Shen Ci followed Brother Zhang’s guidance and pretended not to see them, continuing to interact with the more positive comments.
However, while the main target remained silent, some fans in the live chat became unhappy and directly engaged with them.
“You’ve been saying it for so long, yet where is the concrete evidence to back up your claims? Are you all suffering from delusions of being victims, just like your boss?”
“Clowns jumping around! It’s been days and you’re still holding onto an empty melon for us to eat?”
“If you don’t work hard and blame others, who else will be blamed if not you?”
…
Shen Ci was shocked as the live stream room gradually turned into a battleground. He hadn’t expected his fans to be so powerful in a fight.
Fortunately, Brother Zhang had anticipated the situation and arranged several moderators. They kicked out several troublemakers who were clearly causing problems and the room slowly returned to a harmonious state.
Shen Ci continued chatting with the commenters as usual when suddenly a dialogue box popped up on the live stream screen: “Wei Shuo requests to join your call.”
He was a bit surprised because they had agreed to do a live call when they were near the amusement park. Why was Wei Shuo taking action earlier?
But he still pressed “Connect.” The loading circle spun a few times and Wei Shuo appeared on the left side of the screen.
As soon as Wei Shuo saw Shen Ci, he scolded him without holding back, “Are you stupid? Even after being cursed at, you don’t know to come find Shuo Ge to protect you? If we had connected just now, I would have cursed those rumor-mongers to death!”
Wei Shuo looked fierce, but Shen Ci couldn’t help but laugh. “You came so quickly, I didn’t even have a chance to call you myself.”
Wei Shuo gave him another glare, unable to be bothered to respond. He looked at Shen Ci’s clothes, “What are you wearing today? It looks pretty good.”
“Here.” Shen Ci held the phone farther away and showed Wei Shuo his outfit. To Wei Shuo’s surprise, he saw that beneath his loose long sleeves, he was wearing shorts that didn’t even reach his knees. Wei Shuo immediately protested indignantly.
“Shen Xiaoci, are you doing this on purpose? Purposefully showing off your long legs to attract attention! All my viewers must have run to your stream.”
Shen Ci rolled his eyes. “I was styled by my stylist! And aren’t you more of a show-off than me? You look like you just came off the stage. Did you forget to take the humble pill when you went out?”
Wei Shuo’s camera angle was already quite far, so as soon as the live stream connected, Shen Ci could see his outfit clearly.
The light purple dyed hair was very eye-catching, along with the ear studs, necklace, ripped jeans and the reflective silver windbreaker draped over him. Walking on the street, he was the most stylish and showy kid, guaranteed to turn heads with a starting attention rate of 200%.
Wei Shuo snorted, “That’s different. You’re already good looking, you’ll steal all my fans in no time.”
Shen Ci replied, “Who are the two of us? Your fans are mine of course, but my fans are still mine.”
Wei Shuo retorted, “Tsk! Just wait, I’ll deal with you later!”
…
Unbeknownst to them, Shen Ci and Wei Shuo were getting carried away in their conversation, completely forgetting that they were still live streaming. Their smiles and dialogue became even more natural, and they didn’t notice the skyrocketing number of viewers in the live stream room.
Fans from both sides watched their idols chatting so familiarly and were shocked, their jaws dropping. The live chat rooms of Shen Ci and Wei Shuo were flooded with “???” and “!!!”
Their unexpected live call without any prior announcement was a delightful surprise. The fact that the rising star of Yunxiao Entertainment was friends with the top internet celebrity became a sensational piece of gossip that didn’t even require any promotion. It naturally soared to the top of the “hot search” in Wave Country.
With the skyrocketing popularity, more and more onlookers flocked to their live stream rooms and many people were captivated by the two individuals’ exceptional looks and their unpretentious and comfortable conversation. They stayed in the live stream rooms, feeling like excited groundhogs and couldn’t help but share the live stream links with their friends.
In no time, Wei Shuo’s and Shen Ci’s live stream rooms became the first and second most popular streams on Qinggua Live, leaving the third place stream far behind, the number of viewers multiplied by two digits.
And the third place belonged to Bai Ziwei, who was trying out live streaming from home as part of his rehabilitation.
At this moment, as he stared at the steadily decreasing number of viewers in his live stream room, he was completely dumbfounded.
