43: Mini-Battle - 2

Squatting in the third row, Sweet Girl watched the 57777 points under Yao Yao's feet, then compared it to her own pitiful few hundred votes. She was so jealous she could almost grind her back teeth to dust. Pitching her voice, she began to act coquettishly:

"Brother-in-law~! Brother-in-law~! Look at me! I'm Yao Yao's best sister, Sweet Girl! Can you help me break a thousand too? Please, brother-in-law~!"

Yao Yao, who was at the peak of excitement, immediately flew into a rage upon hearing this. She didn't even bother pretending to be gentle anymore and directly retorted:

"Sister my foot! Cut it out! Weren't you the one undermining me just now? Now you come running to claim kinship? Get lost!"

Sweet Girl continued with a giggle, speaking in a sly, manipulative tone: "Oh dear! Sister, how can you say that in front of brother-in-law! Aren't we all brother-in-law's people? Family should love and care for each other~"

Yao Yao was so angry she wanted to curse: "You better get lost right now! Stop trying to cozy up to my brother!"

Watching the two women "fight over him out of jealousy," Jiang Ye felt his vanity greatly satisfied.

He shook his head with a smile and casually sent Sweet Girl a sports car gift.

[Brother Ye gifted Sweet Girl Orphan a sports car *1]

The score above Sweet Girl's head instantly broke a thousand, making her overjoyed: "Thank you, brother-in-law! Brother-in-law is the best! Brother-in-law~ do you want to come in? I won't tell sister~"

Jiang Ye was taken aback: [Come in where?]

He didn't react immediately, but Yao Yao understood in an instant and flew into a rage: "You little hussy! You actually asked my brother for tickets! Asking for tickets is one thing, but you dare to flirt! I'll tear your mouth apart!"

Sweet Girl giggled, emboldened: "Oh, sister, don't be so stingy! We're all family, what's wrong with letting brother-in-law have a little fun?"

Watching this girl actually manage to get a sports car, Minnie, who was nearby, couldn't help but curl her lip disdainfully.

She actually wanted to get close to this Brother Ye too, but she had three big brothers sitting below her own stream and couldn't act too outrageously. So she coughed and began to take sides:

"Brother Ye, Yao Yao finally has a reliable brother like you. We must firmly prevent Sweet Girl from poaching! You can't let our Yao Yao down!"

"Sigh, it's so hard!"

Sweet Girl sighed leisurely: "Going in would let sister down, backing out would let me down. Looks like the only way..."

"Hey! Sweet Girl!"

Minnie sensed trouble and hurriedly interrupted, but unfortunately, Sweet Girl still said it: "...is to keep going back and forth! That way, everyone wins~"

"Pfft—!"

Jiang Ye, who had been comfortably drinking tea, spat out a mouthful of tea upon hearing this absolutely killer, brazen remark and choked, coughing repeatedly.

Xiao Yu, who was beside him, quickly picked up a towel and handed it to him, suppressing a laugh as she said: "Bro, are you okay? These streamer girls nowadays... are really good at flirting."

Jiang Ye waved his hand while coughing, both amused and exasperated: "Cough... what can you do, that's how they make money... cough..."

In the livestream room, with Sweet Girl's outrageous "in and out" statement, the serious atmosphere of the Hall Battle completely derailed.

With no PK pressure, the streamers completely let loose and started going all out for entertainment value.

The furious Yao Yao, the pitifully aggrieved Sweet Girl, Minnie who seemed to be taking sides but was actually fanning the flames, plus two other streamers who loved watching the drama, the five of them went back and forth, making it more entertaining than "Empresses in the Palace."

The barrage on the public screen scrolled rapidly. Over thirty people created the effect of three hundred, with various comments like "hahaha," "Is this a ride to kindergarten?" "No flights scheduled today," "Minnie is such a master of passive-aggression" flooding the screen.

Amidst this chaos, an inconspicuous comment suddenly floated by:

Brother Ye: [Did you record it this time?]

Yao Yao, who was in the midst of "battling" Sweet Girl, paused before realizing: "Huh? No, bro, you gifted so fast just now, I didn't even react!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Zhi Xia, who had been off-mic the whole time, was startled. She typed at lightning speed, sending three consecutive comments on the public screen:

Zhi Xia: [I recorded it!]

Zhi Xia: [Recorded, recorded! My ancestors, I recorded it!]

Zhi Xia: [@Yao Yao Check WeChat! I sent it to you!]

Yao Yao stuck out her tongue and quickly switched to WeChat. Sure enough, she saw the screen recording file sent by Zhi Xia, followed by a string of complaints:

[I'm so damn fed up with you! You were so busy having fun, you forgot about controlling the pace, didn't you? I told you to steady Brother Ye! Throwing two Glory Peaks right off the bat—if the opposing big brother gets scared off, how are we supposed to fight this Hall Battle? The opposing Hall Manager just asked me if we're treating them like little devils! Hurry up and tell Brother Ye to take a break!]

Only then did Yao Yao remember the main task. She quickly shouted on mic: "Brother Ye! Brother Ye! Let's hold off on gifting for now, okay? Wait for the other side to catch up a bit before sending more, alright?"

Jiang Ye, who had already opened the gift panel and was about to send a third Glory Peak, glanced at the score, which had become 69863 : 32076, and shrugged indifferently.

Brother Ye: [Alright, I'll listen to you.]

Seeing this message, Zhi Xia on the other side of the screen finally breathed a sigh of relief. She hurriedly went to reassure the Hall Manager of "Xing Yu Xin Yuan," explaining that their big brother was a bit too enthusiastic, telling them not to panic, to keep sending votes, and that their side was actually pretty weak.

Thus, the next twenty-plus minutes became "garbage time" for the "Wen Yus Girlfriend" side.

Because Jiang Ye's two Glory Peaks were too ferocious, the pressure of the Hall Battle instantly vanished. The streamers all started targeting their own big brothers, using highly uniform tactics: "Look how much he dotes on her~ I want that too~ boohoo~"

These big brothers, while dealing with their beloved streamers' complaints with exasperation, helplessly Make complaintsed Jiang Ye's price-inflating behavior in the comments:

[Elder Sun, rein in your divine powers!]

[Brother Ye, behavior like this warrants execution of the nine familial generations!]

[Good brother, send me your address, I'll mail you some local specialties.]
