141: This is the power of bond!
In any case, amidst the harmonious atmosphere of Lu Chuan's nonsensical explanations and Baba Le's forced understanding, everyone tacitly stopped focusing on the complex relationship between ring toss and beggar's chicken.
Baba Le had Xiao Hu hold the camera, while he himself took the rings and stood at the red line on the other side, beginning to try.
Meanwhile, Neighbor, who had already driven to the city center, was staring in astonishment at his empty live stream room.
The barrage of comments that had been incessantly arguing ten seconds ago had all vanished ten seconds later.
This sudden change made Neighbor think he was hallucinating for a moment.
It wasn't until bad news came from the 'Undercover Group' that he understood what had happened.
"No, this, I, he..."
Neighbor's expression was somewhat distraught.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he got, just as he was about to unleash a torrent of curses.
Suddenly, the live stream room went dark.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be banned.
Furious and anxious, Neighbor quickly contacted his guild for help with the inquiry, only to find out he had been reported and complained about by multiple people, with video evidence.
Neighbor looked at the video sent by his agent and realized it was a clip from his own live stream.
The video perfectly recorded his malicious collision with a passerby little girl, his deliberate incitement of audience conflict, and his wanton cursing of innocent street vendors, among other egregious behaviors.
"No, these people who reported me are purely sick! I was clearly creating a show effect, don't you all like to watch this kind of dramatic conflict?"
"Besides, if they didn't like it, couldn't they just leave? Why did they have to report me!"
"I #¥%@*&^$ their %$ entire family!"
"May they die a terrible death! You dogs, %¥##&!@!"
Immersed in rage, constantly cursing wildly, Neighbor didn't notice the agent on the video call's face growing increasingly grim.
Seeing Neighbor curse with increasing vigor, showing no signs of stopping, the agent slammed the table and reprimanded him.
"Enough!"
Neighbor was startled, and seeing the agent's displeased expression, he dared not speak again.
The agent then picked up the bill statements and contract documents from the table, snorted, and said coldly:
"Neighbor, as of now, the guild has invested a significant amount in you, including various equipment configurations and operational investments, totaling eighty-three thousand five hundred yuan."
"Now, due to your inappropriate behavior, your live stream room has been banned, which has caused huge losses to the guild. According to the previous contract, the guild has the right to unilaterally terminate its contractual cooperation with you and reserves the right to pursue claims against you!"
"You need to deposit eighty-three thousand five hundred yuan into the guild's account within fifteen working days, otherwise, you know the consequences."
After speaking, the agent didn't wait for Neighbor to respond and directly ended the video call.
It was only then that Neighbor realized what the agent had said.
His face instantly turned pale, and he collapsed onto the floor.
"It's over, it's all over!"
..."It's over, it's all over!"
Baba Le looked at his thirty wasted rings and was on the verge of tears.
What was this all about!
Rings that bounced off with a mere touch, who could possibly get one to land!
"Hahaha, I got one!"
A joyful voice just happened to ring out from the opposite side.
"Hmm?"
Baba Le looked over in surprise and saw it was Lin Kai and Hua Hanyao.
"They can even get one to land?!"
Baba Le quickly ran over, wanting to learn a trick or two.
Lin Kai, however, mistakenly thought Baba Le was coming to snatch the prize, so he quickly scooped up the beggar's chicken he had won and held it firmly in his arms.
Then, he and Hua Hanyao looked at Baba Le with wary expressions.
Baba Le looked at the overreacting duo, momentarily dumbfounded.
But then he remembered that this mud ball contained the delicious food made by the young boss, and he immediately understood.
If it were him, he would do the same.
Having understood, Baba Le quickly stood three meters away and waved his hands, explaining:
"Don't be nervous, I just wanted to ask you if you have any tips for ring toss!"
Lin Kai and Hua Hanyao relaxed upon hearing this.
Putting everything else aside, Baba Le's burly physique charging over was indeed quite unnerving.
Now that the misunderstanding was cleared, the two no longer held the beggar's chicken so tightly.
Lin Kai looked at Baba Le, who was cupping his hands in greeting and appeared to be humbly seeking advice, and his vanity was greatly satisfied. He was about to speak the method.
However, Hua Hanyao suddenly stepped on his foot, and the words on his lips instantly turned into a scream.
"Ouch, ouch, ouch..."
Hua Hanyao ignored Lin Kai, instead looking warily at the camera in Xiao Hu's hand and asking:
"Are you live streaming?"
Baba Le and Xiao Hu were puzzled, nodding hesitantly in affirmation.
Hua Hanyao's expression changed, and she immediately wanted to pull Lin Kai and leave.
In a moment of desperation, Baba Le hurriedly called out.
"Wait!"
At the same time, he quickened his pace, circumventing the two and appearing in front of them.
Looking at Baba Le blocking their path, Hua Hanyao couldn't help but frown, her expression becoming somewhat displeased.
Seeing this, Baba Le felt a bit awkward, but he still braced himself and cupped his hands to ask for guidance.
"Is there something inconvenient to say on camera? How about this, I'll turn off the live stream first, and then can you teach me how to toss rings? Please, I really want to eat the beggar's chicken made by the young boss!"
Lin Kai looked at Baba Le's humble, 'food-addicted' appearance, and although he felt a little sympathetic, he chose to remain silent.
Hua Hanyao pursed her lips, but the displeasure on her face had disappeared.
A conflicted expression appeared on her face, and after a while, she finally sighed.
"Telling one person is equivalent to telling all the viewers watching your live stream. Just now, listening to your conversation with that... young boss, I assume he must be quite influential, right?"
Without waiting for Baba Le to respond, she continued:
"Whether I should say it or not, that young boss's craftsmanship is indeed excellent, no, it should be said to be superb! But no matter how good he is, how many beggar's chickens can he sell in a day?"
"When you and your audience all come, with too many wolves and too little meat, will my boyfriend and I still be able to enjoy such delicious beggar's chicken as much as we did today?"
After hearing Hua Hanyao's frank words, Baba Le understood.
He gave a wry smile, cupped his hands, apologized, and was about to make way.
Unexpectedly, Hua Hanyao sighed, then changed her tone and said:
"However, I can also understand your eagerness to eat beggar's chicken. How about this, seeing that you're not a two-faced person, why don't we cooperate?"
Seeing a turn of events, Baba Le's eyes immediately lit up.
"Tell me! How do we cooperate?"
Hua Hanyao waved her hand and said with considerable presence:
"It's simple, we provide the technique, you provide the funds! Strong cooperation, let's team up to eat chicken!"
Baba Le was overjoyed and nodded repeatedly.
"Okay!"
With that, he extended his palm flat in front of him.
Hua Hanyao smiled, took Lin Kai's hand, and placed it on top.
Their palms pressed against the backs of their hands, they pressed down in the air and shouted "Go!" in unison!
Meanwhile, a few meters away from the three.
Lu Chuan was looking at this scene with a strange expression.
He couldn't help but tug He Jingrui's sleeve and asked in a low voice:
"No, it's just ring toss, what exactly are they getting so fired up about?"
But when he looked up, he saw He Jingrui with a moved expression, muttering:
"A Chuan, you don't understand, this is the power of bonds!"
Lu Chuan's face flushed with embarrassment.
"...I really want to die."
