44: Chapter 44 Succulents That Love Grilled Cold Noodles

Back in the Livestream Room, after Duorou finished her solo dance, she held the microphone and offered another round of thanks.

After stepping off stage, her operator, Brother Zhao, hurriedly pulled her aside and instructed her that she must maintain a good relationship with Brother Qing Shan.

As for Brother Zhaocai, he would just have to be put on the back burner for now.

Actually, she didn't need him to tell her; Duorou knew the importance of maintaining relationships with big spenders herself.

Back in the lounge, Duorou immediately picked up her phone and sent a private message of thanks to Zhang Shan.

Duorou: "Thank you for your affection, Brother Qing Shan. You spent a lot today."

Duorou: "May I add your contact information?"

After sending the private message, Duorou greeted a few of her sisters and went to the dressing room to remove her makeup.

Zhang Shan did not leave the Livestream Room after Duorou finished her ten-win streak.

It was just past 10 o'clock, and the atmosphere in this Livestream Room was decent, so he planned to play a little longer.

Seeing Duorou's private message, Zhang Shan sent her his WeChat ID and returned to the Livestream Room.

At this moment, Xiaoru was the one challenging.

Just as she started her challenge, Zhang Shan sent another 5 sets of 999 little douyins.

Now that the time was more than halfway through, Xiaoru's big brothers and sisters hadn't contributed any votes.

Could it be that they were scared to contribute after seeing me make a move?

Zhang Shan's move this round really wasn't intended to keep trapping them.

The reason he made a move was just to let them earn a bit more.

Since he was the one who trapped them, he would consider it compensation for keeping them stuck on the wall.

With only 3 seconds left, Xiaoru's big brothers and sisters finally made their move.

[Lv54 Princess Qiqi sent Xiaoru little heart 1314 × 1 ... × 3] (3942 diamond)

[Lv49 Brother Xingran sent Xiaoru little heart 1314 × 1 ... × 3] (3942 diamond)

They decided to take a gamble and see Brother Qing Shan's attitude.

If Brother Qing Shan wanted to keep them trapped, they would have no choice but to give up.

They knew they didn't have the strength to go head-to-head with Brother Qing Shan.

But if Brother Qing Shan didn't intend to keep trapping them, they could happily help Xiaoru finish her shift.

Princess Qiqi and Brother Xingran stared nervously at the health bar after sending the little hearts.

They were terrified that Brother Qing Shan would continue to attack.

The countdown hit zero, and little heart won.

Seeing that Brother Qing Shan didn't make a final move, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It seemed Brother Qing Shan didn't intend to keep them trapped on the wall anymore.

The next few rounds confirmed their suspicions.

At the start of every challenge round, Zhang Shan symbolically threw 5 sets of 999 little douyins.

After a few rounds of challenges, the "Huazi war" that the audience was looking forward to did not happen again.

Many viewers slowly left the Livestream Room, dropping from 10,000+ to 5,000+.

By this time, Xiaoru's challenge had reached the ninth round.

The viewers who hadn't left were just preparing to see if Brother Qing Shan would make a move at the end.

The result disappointed them; Brother Qing Shan didn't make a move at all.

He didn't even send the 5 sets of little douyins he had been sending at the start.

Those new viewers lost interest and some left, so the number of people in the Livestream Room returned to its usual size.

And the highly anticipated Brother Qing Shan was chatting with Duorou at this moment.

After Duorou finished removing her makeup, she saw the private message Zhang Shan had replied with, and immediately added him as a friend using her own account.

Duorou: "Sorry, Brother Qing Shan, it took me a while to remove my makeup."

Duorou: "Thank you for your support, Brother Qing Shan. Duorou has finished her shift beautifully."

Then she sent a selfie to Zhang Shan.

Judging by the photo, Duorou's appearance seemed even prettier than it did in the Livestream Room.

Qing Shan: "Mm, good."

Qing Shan: "I feel like you look even prettier in person than on camera."

Duorou: "Really? Thank you for the compliment, Brother Qing Shan. I'm actually not very photogenic, and the makeup I wear during the stream is a bit heavy."

Duorou: "Ah, what do I see? Brother Qing Shan, let me show you something super delicious. I've been craving this for days."

Duorou: [Image]

Duorou: "Got off work early today, so I finally managed to catch it."

Zhang Shan clicked on the image. It showed a snack cart with "Northeast Grilled Cold Noodles" written on it.

Seeing the three big characters "Grilled Cold Noodles," Zhang Shan's head buzzed.

What kind of "super delicious" thing is this?

Isn't it everywhere at subway exits and street stalls?

Zhang Shan speechless-ly replied with three dots to Duorou.

Qing Shan: "..."

Duorou: "Hehe, Brother Qing Shan, you must have never eaten this kind of street stall food. I'm telling you, it's seriously super delicious."

Duorou: "If there's a chance, I'll definitely take you to try it."

Zhang Shan: ...

I haven't eaten it in other places, but I've certainly eaten plenty from the one at the street corner downstairs.

Qing Shan: "I'm a bit curious, where are you from? How come you like this so much?"

Duorou: "I'm from Bingcheng. I ate it all the time in high school, but I've eaten less of it since coming to Hangzhou for university."

Duorou: "Where are you from, Brother Qing Shan?"

Qing Shan: "So you're from Bingcheng, no wonder. I'm from Shengtian."

Duorou: "Ah? You're from Shengtian? We're fellow townsfolk."

Duorou: "I didn't expect that! We're actually from the same hometown! Haha, then you must have eaten these grilled cold noodles, Haha. I was even planning to take you to try them, Haha."

Qing Shan: "Hehe, I really haven't eaten the ones in Hangzhou."

Duorou: "Hangzhou is actually quite nice, too. Brother Qing Shan, if you have a chance, you can come visit. When you do, I'll take you to try Hangzhou's grilled cold noodles, Haha."

Perhaps because she had connected with a fellow townsfolk, Duorou was noticeably more talkative.

It was clear that Duorou was quite cheerful in private.

The two chatted for a while longer until Duorou returned home.

Duorou politely said goodnight to Zhang Shan, then sent him a video of herself blowing a goodnight kiss.

That ended the chat.

In the video, Duorou blew a big kiss at the camera, then said "Goodnight, Brother Qing Shan" in a cutesy, high-pitched voice.

You have to admit, these female streamers really know how to be seductive.

Sending all sorts of little videos and photos, they get you all energized and excited.

Zhang Shan saved the little video. When they meet in the future, if he plays it, it's guaranteed they'll burrow into his arms out of embarrassment.

Of course, they might also turn around and leave in a fit of shame and anger.

That depends on your status in their hearts.

Anyway, Zhang Shan wasn't worried about such a situation happening.

Back in the Livestream Room, Xiaoru had successfully completed her ten-win streak and clocked out.

Now it was Qing'er's tenth round of challenges.

Zhang Shan had only chatted with Duorou for ten minutes or so; they were moving quite fast.

For Qing'er's tenth round, Zhang Shan specifically waited until the very end to make his move.

He threw all 40 sets of 999 little douyins on the ground.

Qing'er was startled when she saw Brother Qing Shan make a move, but then she jumped up in excitement.

Brother Qing Shan's attack actually landed on the ground; it was her fate to escape a disaster.

Seeing Qing'er's excited and thrilled appearance, Zhang Shan couldn't be bothered to argue with her and just let her clock out.

For the next few people, Zhang Shan gave each of them 40 sets of little douyins.

Everyone could see that Brother Qing Shan was letting them off the hook.

At 11 PM, Liuli was the last one to clock out. Afterward, Ergou thanked all the big brothers and sisters who sent gifts one more time before ending the stream.

Zhang Shan exited the Livestream Room, replied with a "Good luck" to Xiaoru and the others, and then washed up and went to sleep.

That night, Zhang Shan had a dream.

He dreamed that he had become the world's richest man, had endless money to spend, and enjoyed a happy life every day.

The next day, 6:00 AM.

Zhang Shan was woken up by an alarm, and his beautiful dream was shattered.

A beautiful day begins with bowing and scraping to use the toilet.
