136: Call from Longxi

Li Youqian swiped through several live streams in a row, finally “escaping” the clutches of group broadcasts.

“I need to give Douyin some feedback another day; they start pushing streams just for a casual gift. Who can stand that?”

Douyin’s big data is indeed powerful; if you’ve liked a video, you’ll usually see similar ones.

Live streams are the same; if you’ve given a gift in a certain type of live stream, when you swipe away, it’s usually still that same type of live stream.

Just like people who like voice chat rooms, as soon as they open Douyin, it definitely recommends voice chat rooms they’ve given gifts in before.

“Will you remember tomorrow, the diary you wrote yesterday?”

“Will you still care tomorrow, about the you who used to cry the most?”

Alright, so it’s not pushing voice chat rooms to him anymore; it’s starting to push solo singing instead, huh?

But honestly, this girl really sings well.

It’s clearly a sad song, but she sings it with a healing feeling.

The streamer’s ID is - Teacher En.

Although she didn’t show her face, her figure and hands are very nice, so she probably doesn’t look bad either.

Seeing the words Teacher En, Li Youqian immediately thought of a line:

In the end, the Demon King dreamed of a butterfly; you are Enjing and also a tribulation.

The CP that countless League of Legends players shipped back then ultimately couldn't be together.

Enjing married, and Sang-hyeok shed tears.

“Welcome, new darlings, welcome, Mysterious Person brother.”

Teacher En finished her song, put down her guitar, and welcomed the new viewers.

“Wow, the streamer sings so well!”

“Teacher En really is singing better and better.”

“The most important thing is, Teacher En doesn’t use a sound card!”

“(43) Qiyu: “Teacher En sings really well. I come to listen to a song every day.””

“(39) Perhaps: “Brother Qi is really fierce. He reached level 43 in one month. Just for Teacher En, it must be tens of thousands, right?””

“(43) Qiyu: “I haven’t calculated it. I just love listening to singing, money is secondary.””

“666, Big Bro really has strength!”

“Tens of thousands a month, another rich person.”

“It’s a pity I can’t sing, otherwise I could also earn a living.”

“Shen Mi Ren 856478: “Does the streamer know how to sing ‘Ordinary Road’?””

The song “Ordinary Road,” known as a highway anthem, used to be on repeat in Li Youqian’s playlist.

“Yes, I’m very familiar with this song.”

“Does Mysterious Person brother want to hear it?”

Teacher En’s live stream only had less than a hundred people, so Li Youqian’s bullet comment was quickly noticed by her.

“Shen Mi Ren 856478: “What do I need to gift to request a song?””

Singing streamers are similar to voice chat rooms; requests are usually tied to a specific gift.

“New followers can request a song by just following me~”

“Shen Mi Ren 856478: “Following is a bit inconvenient. Just tell me directly.””

“Hmm… then a ‘Heart-shaped Bunny’ it is.”

Mysterious Person doesn’t like to reveal himself, so she didn’t force it.

A Heart-shaped Bunny? It’s actually that cheap.

You know, requesting a song in a voice chat room usually costs 599!

“Bro, you’re so honest…”

“Teacher En: I feel like I lost out, and also like I didn’t.”

“Thanks to the boss for letting us Free Stuff listen to the song.”

“(43) Qiyu: “Teacher En’s song requests are indeed just a Heart-shaped Bunny. Don’t mess around.””

“Ahem, mainly President Qian single-handedly raised the threshold for Mysterious Person, causing everyone to think any Mysterious Person is a big shot now.”

“Mysterious Person is a big shot to begin with, alright…”

“You can only activate it at level 41 or above, and activating it once costs nearly two thousand. Definitely a big shot.”

“Thank you, Mysterious Person brother, for the Heart-shaped Bunny. Here’s “Ordinary Road” for you, brother.”

Accompanied by the gentle strumming of the guitar, Teacher En slowly began to sing:

“Wandering, on the road.”

“Are you leaving, via via?”

“I once crossed mountains and seas, and passed through crowds of people.”

“I once had everything, but in a blink, it all vanished like smoke.”

If Pu Shu’s “Ordinary Road” was a farewell to the past and an anticipation and confidence for the future,

then Teacher En’s “Ordinary Road” was a yearning for freedom.

Her gentle voice transformed this slow rock song into a lyrical ballad.

He once yearned for a day when he wouldn’t have to worry about money and could live the life he wanted.

But all ideals, in the end, succumbed to reality.

“(43) Qiyu: “Beautiful!””

【(43) Qiyu gifted Streamer - Teacher En a carnival * 1 (30000 Douyin Coins)】

【(39) Perhaps gifted Streamer - Teacher En a Night Wings * 1 (3888 Douyin Coins)】

【(31) What Are You Doing gifted Streamer - Teacher En a Romantic Lover * 1 (1999 Douyin Coins)】

The gifts on the public screen pulled Li Youqian’s thoughts back to reality.

Wiping away the tears from the corner of his eyes, Li Youqian lightly tapped the screen with his finger.

【Shen Mi Ren 856478 gifted Streamer - Teacher En a holy dragon descends * 1 * 2 .. * 10! (1000000 Douyin Coins)】

Spending a hundred thousand yuan to listen to a song might seem crazy to others.

But to him, as long as he liked it, any amount of money was worth it.

Of course, only Douyin Coins~

“Douyin (Official): “President Qian, we have three proposals for your exclusive gift. Please take a look.””

“Douyin (Official): “Video. Video. Video.””

Li Youqian clicked them open one by one. The first one was a sword immortal flying with a sword, and the special effect sound was “Riding the sword on the wind, eliminating demons between heaven and earth.”

Although he quite liked this art style, wasn't this just Li Bai from Honor of Kings??

PASS! PASS!

As for the second one, it was a dragon emerging from the sea. Honestly, this thing wasn't even as cool as holy dragon descends. Could this even be called an exclusive gift?

After continuously passing two, Li Youqian gradually became disappointed with Douyin.

Although the special effects were passable, it was too perfunctory.

Finally, he clicked on the third one. The screen first showed a desolate land, followed by countless refugees praying to the heavens.

The God of Wealth emerged from the heavenly gate, scattering countless gold ingots???

Dude, they’re literally starving. They’re not asking for the God of Food, they’re asking for the God of Wealth???

What, are they going to gnaw on gold ingots with their teeth??

“Im Really Rich: “Is there a possibility that your company’s planner needs to be replaced?””

“Im Really Rich: “The first two I could tolerate, but the last one I really can’t. They’re starving and praying to the God of Wealth, going to gnaw on gold ingots with their teeth?””

“Douyin (Official): “Uh… I will report your feedback to the higher-ups.””

“Douyin (Official): Please be patient and wait.”

“Im Really Rich: “An exclusive gift isn’t absolutely necessary for me.””

“Im Really Rich: “All I want is an attitude. If you continue like this, I don’t even want this gift.””

Although the people who make the special effects are workers, the final decision-makers are still the leaders.

If the leadership all had this attitude, Li Youqian would definitely switch platforms immediately.

“It’s just because you’re too beautiful~”

Li Youqian was full of anger when an unknown number from Longxi called.

Without thinking, Li Youqian answered the phone and immediately started cursing:

“Are you people making these harassment calls so full you have nothing better to do?”

“I ***, you ***…”

Before he could finish cursing, a calm voice came from the other end:

“I am your father!”
