Chapter 12: Chapter 12 What gift do you want?

Editor: Inschain

He approached the bathroom and saw Su Mian touching her face in disbelief.

Such smooth, tender, and dewy skin to the touch—could this really be her face!?

Pointing at her face excitedly, she said, “Old Lu, look at my face, my face!”

Lu Rui paused for a moment, then said in surprise, “How did your skin get so soft?”

Su Mian excitedly held up the skincare cream and gave it a big kiss, “My precious daughter, Mommy loves you to death! Qiaoqiao’s local earth mix really does work wonders, if it were sold it would absolutely explode globally!”

It’s weird, with such a great money-making tool in hand, why is that village still so poor?

Is the patent fee not enticing enough, or is it a secret recipe not to be shared?

Su Mian felt warmed inside. Qiao Yun was too aloof, and sometimes she herself didn’t know what to do; she had been wrong. Qiaoqiao was also trying hard to accept them, otherwise, she wouldn’t have sent such a thoughtful gift.

…

Qiao Yun sat at the computer desk with her eyes downcast, the curly lashes casting a shadow over her eyelids. Her slender fingers tapped on the phone, and after typing out a line, she pressed send.

Elsewhere,

In the resting room, Lu Zhanxing supported his chin with one hand, and carelessly played with his phone in the other, revealing an exquisitely beautiful profile, with a small, delicate blue earring adorning his right ear, adding to his exceptional cool demeanor.

Among the Lu Family, he and Qiao Yun looked the most alike, but whereas Qiao Yun was truly indifferent, he had a bit more of a roguish air.

Seeing something, Lu Zhanxing scoffed with a hint of ridicule.

The agent was explaining the precautions for the upcoming live stream to Lu Zhanxing. Hearing his laughter, he looked up and asked, “Laughing at what?”

Lu Zhanxing’s voice was playful, “Nothing much, just encountered a scammer.”

He glanced at the message he just received.

[What gift do you want?]

Lu Zhanxing found it quite boring. What era was this for text message scams to still be a thing? He teased back on purpose.

[Can you guarantee me the first place in tonight’s live broadcast? Do you have it?]

Lu Zhanxing was participating in a variety show this time, which had set up a live broadcast battle for popularity, and the person who finished last had to leave the show.

At times like these, it was easier to prove whether your popularity was hollow or real.

And it just so happened that the celebrities participating in the variety show this time were all top-tier in popularity, even the pop idol Lu Zhanxing himself was a bit anxious. He didn’t need to be first, just not the last.

Qiao Yun looked at the message with her indifferent gaze, pausing to think for a few seconds, then reached out to open her computer. Her elegant slender fingers tapped the keyboard and after understanding the ins and outs, she clicked into Lu Zhanxing’s live broadcast room.

By now, the live broadcast had already been on for over ten minutes.

Qiao Yun took a glance at the leaderboard—Lu Zhanxing was second to last, just a tiny bit above the last place. She withdrew her gaze and deftly navigated to the registration and recharge pages.

The live room’s chat was flying with fans from different camps battling it out.

Lu Zhanxing took a look at his own popularity and felt a bit worried. It wasn’t that his popularity wasn’t up to par, it was that the fans from the other idols were too fierce.

Right then, the screen exploded. Colorful special effects took over the entire screen, and the world announcement started frantically scrolling.

[“User 7265988” tips “Lu Zhanxing” 100 Super Rockets! Dear host! Please catch my profound love for you!]

“…”

After repeating ten times, it finally stopped.

The effect of a thousand Super Rockets was astonishing, blinding everyone’s dog eyes, and the whole live room erupted into madness!

F*ck!

Where did this godlike tycoon come from?

A single rocket is ten thousand bucks, a thousand is ten million!! Has he gone insane!!?
