29: Do you want to sit down?

Ye Ze and Xu Momo were so put off by that group of snobs that they didn't eat much.

Xu Momo said she wanted to eat hotpot, so the two of them drove together to a Sichuan-style hotpot restaurant she used to frequent.

Only after Xu Momo ordered the dishes did she speak: "Tsk tsk, why didn't I realize there were so many hateful people there when I was in school?"

Ye Ze smiled and said, "This is human nature, it's very normal."

Xu Momo still felt a bit angry thinking about it: "I couldn't even listen anymore, but you could endure it."

Ye Ze said playfully, "You have to suppress first to elevate later; if you don't let them show off for a while upfront, the face-slapping later won't be as satisfying."

"Ah! Now that you say that, I understand! It was really satisfying in the end! I saw what they posted in the group, they're all praising how cool our car is."

Ye Ze: "Yes, the car being cool is a fact, haha..."

Xu Momo found herself liking the man in front of her more and more; his demeanor had undergone earth-shattering changes since their school days.

But no matter how he changed, he was still so attractive to her...

This was Ye Ze's first time at this place, and he wasn't prepared; Xu Momo had ordered the extra spicy pot.

He was caught off guard and couldn't handle the spiciness, but Xu Momo started laughing.

She handed him a box of milk: "Is it very spicy? But it's only delicious when it's spicy enough!"

Ye Ze: "Indeed! I just wasn't prepared and got hit by the spice, but I can eat a lot of spicy food!"

Xu Momo watched him being stubborn but didn't expose him.

After eating, they swapped their cars back. After all, Xu Momo had deliberately said that just to slap their faces.

Ye Ze drove his Lamborghini back to his villa in Cuihua Garden.

As soon as he entered the door, he rubbed his head.

He hadn't been back to live here for a while, he forgot to find himself a housekeeper!

He contacted the property management and asked them to find him two live-in housekeepers.

He looked around the house and decided to convert one of the rooms into a gym. He needed to improve his health stats!

Otherwise, he was already a bit overwhelmed by just Mo Mo, wouldn't he be drained dry if others came over in the future?

He decided to act immediately, taking out his phone and placing orders for a bunch of things.

Lying in a relaxed posture on the large sofa downstairs, Ye Ze opened his phone.

As soon as he entered the Yinfu Software app, his phone notified him that the live stream room YU001 he followed was currently broadcasting.

Ye Ze clicked in; he hadn't chatted with Linger for several days, so he would just go to her live stream room to see her.

As soon as he clicked in, he saw Linger's teammate, Yingying, sitting on an European palace-style chair next to her.

Linger stood to the side, holding a microphone and working hard to solicit votes: "Linger is only 3000 points away from passing the mic."

"Can you help Linger pass the mic? Linger doesn't want to get off work so early..."

Shengyi saw the special effect indicating Yuanshan Jian Shui had entered the live stream room: "Welcome back, my Water Brother!"

Linger's heart also leaped with joy when she saw Yuanshan Jian Shui enter, but then she remembered that Water Brother hadn't replied to her messages for several days, and suddenly she wasn't so confident anymore...

[Oh my, Water Brother is here! Then Linger will definitely be fine.]

[Yeah.]

[Yuanshan Jian Shui: What mode is this?]

Shengyi saw that Water Brother didn't quite understand the rules and explained: "Water Brother, this is the individual competition segment. Everyone takes turns passing the mic to compete for the final MVP."

[Yuanshan Jian Shui: The one with high points sits, and others watch, right?]

[Hahaha, that's right, Water Brother.]

[Water Brother sees through the essence of things at a glance!]

[Yuanshan Jian Shui: Linger, do you want to sit?]

Linger saw his message and nodded vigorously: "Linger wants to sit!"

[Yuanshan Jian Shui: By the way, Shengyi. Did Linger finish her dance obediently last time?]

Linger nodded again, holding the microphone and speaking: "I finished dancing obediently!"

[Hahaha, so it was Water Brother who ordered Linger around last time?]

[I knew it! Linger was dancing there looking like she was questioning life...]

Seeing everyone's comments, Ye Ze knew this girl had indeed danced obediently.

[Yuanshan Jian Shui: Alright, seeing as you danced obediently, if you want to sit, I'll let you sit.]

[Yuanshan Jian Shui: How many points are you short?]

Shengyi: "Linger is 3000 points away from the person above her, and 20000 points away from the first place, Yingying."

Yuanshan Jian Shui gifted Linger a Carnival * 1

The massive special effect of the Carnival blocked half of the screen. Linger's score also successfully surpassed Yingying in first place.

Linger's heart was instantly filled with immense joy, a little wronged, a little excited, and a little happy...

She was happy because she could sit on the chair and rest her feet, excited because Water Brother hadn't forgotten her and came to see her!

She felt wronged because Water Brother hadn't replied to her messages, which had kept her in a state of anxiety for the past few days.

She was indeed good-looking, but the beauty filter function of Yinfu Software was very powerful, plus the company would adjust the lighting for them.

So in the eyes of the audience watching the live stream on their phones, she didn't stand out much more than others.

Recently, she found that sweet-style girls were more accepted in group broadcasts.

The sweet-style girls in the team, even without a big patron, had a bunch of female fans supporting them.

But there were very few female fans who liked her; they all said that popularity enhances one's appearance, and that's really true. Compared to them, she had instead become average in the team...

Various emotions intertwined, and the usually strong Linger's eyes became slightly moist...

Ye Ze also noticed that Linger's eyes were red.

[Yuanshan Jian Shui: What's wrong? Seeing me still makes you feel wronged?]

Linger was originally trying hard to hold back her tears, but people are just like that.

When you're by yourself, you can bear any amount of grievance, but once someone sees through your pretense and comforts you, your tears will burst...

The moment she saw Water Brother's comment, her tears started falling...

Her teammate waiting to go on stage quickly handed her a tissue.

Linger's original persona and attire were alluring and charming, but with these tears, she gained a few hints of a pitiful appearance.

[Oh my goodness, a beauty is a beauty! Even crying is so beautiful!]

[Linger must be feeling wronged. She's never won first place before. Now that Water Brother is here and she has someone to rely on, she feels wronged.]

Comments on the screen came one after another, and Ye Ze finally understood.

[Yuanshan Jian Shui: Hehe, what are you crying about? I'll just come and see you more often from now on.]

[Oh my! Water Brother said it! He said he'll come see her often!]

[55555, I'm touched too, Linger deserves it!]

Linger's time was over; now it was Bingbing, the last place, who was soliciting votes.

Ye Ze had just heard the rules and knew that in the individual competition mode, whoever had the mic, the performance on stage would be counted for them.

So he had to patiently wait until it was Linger's turn again.

He minimized the live stream to the upper right corner and opened WeChat to see what messages this girl, Linger, had sent him in the past two days.

Well, the initial snobbishness was gone.

She started sharing more daily life details and also sent messages asking him why he wasn't replying to her.

Ye Ze read from the top down, clearly feeling her sadness and panic.

The last message was: "Water Brother, do you have a streamer you like more now? Even if you don't send gifts, could you just come to my live stream room and see me sometimes?"
