Pretty young anchorwoman: Big brother, come into my bowl!

Chapter 24, Number 8 (There are quite a few chapters)

...(The previous chapter was slightly revised; those who have time can take a look.)

[Salt grains are still awesome; they've turned a salted fish around!]

[I guess I was just lucky.]

Come on, you're lucky to be the target of fake rumors? Would you even want that kind of luck if you were given to you?

[Hahaha, what a sharp tongue!]

Hey Lao Ba, wanna chat about red beans?

[I feel like...emmmm, it's hard to say] those two...

"Hello everyone, welcome to Lao Ba's (Old Eight) live stream."

"I'm Lao Ba, an elegant and handsome gossip streamer." Lao Ba, who was originally facing away from the live stream, suddenly turned around in his gaming chair and flaunted his sunglasses.

Wearing sunglasses late at night, did you finally get your nearsightedness surgery?

It's so humid, my rheumatism is about to flare up.

[As expected of you, someone who wavers between pretending to be an A and pretending to be a C.]

"Hey! You can't say that!" Lao Ba touched his slicked-back hair, grinning.

"That's called a man's manners."

【(Vomit)】

[(Vomiting) +1]

[(vomiting)+]

Seeing the screen full of vomiting emojis, Lao Ba chuckled awkwardly and changed the subject, saying, "Same old rules, choose one of the three, the one with the most votes gets stripped first."

Then, three options were displayed on the screen.

1. Red Beans

2.ai salt grains

3. Tu Shen

The viewers started a heated discussion in the live chat.

It has to be 3!

【】

【What do you know? It's always the same few things between men and women—love and romance—so I choose 2】

[Climbing upstairs, you're bound to be curious about the ultimate fate of this whale-like tycoon]

[Not curious, yet you won't let me use it]

Old Eight leisurely picked up his small teacup, squinted his eyes, took a sip, and even made a delicate gesture with his hands.

"Alright, the auspicious time has arrived."

Lao Ba put down his teacup.

"Let me, Lao Ba, see which one we should talk about first."

The topic currently ranked first is salt grains.

"I didn't expect that this is what everyone is most curious about." Lao Ba was a little surprised; he thought this option would be discussed last.

"Everyone knows Salt Grain, it was quite famous before."

"This girl recently met a guy who's pretty good at making money. He's willing to throw shark fins at her. He's a bit controlling, but when it comes to making money, that's nothing."

Lao Ba shrugged.

[The key is that he alone is comparable to all the other older brothers in Salt Grain.]

The key point is that he ousted all the other older brothers, right?

Seeing this comment, Lao Ba wholeheartedly agreed.

"How do streamers make money? Isn't it from the donations from big spenders? If that guy comes on and drives everyone else away, how can Yanli be happy?"

"Even though he spends a lot, what if he runs away one day? Wouldn't all his efforts be for nothing?"

Old Eight shook his head and clicked his tongue. "Although I'm not happy, since he's already run away, I still have to appease my only source of wealth. But! It's human nature to take an inch and then a mile."

[It crashed...]

[You can't really blame Salt Grain, can you? Who can handle a lunatic?]

[That's true, Salt Grain is already considered to have a good temper.]

"The eldest brother not only controlled Yanli's social rights, but he was also aggressive towards the new eldest brother, which drove everyone away. Yanli couldn't take it anymore and turned against him directly."

[This girl is really pitiful.]

[This feels like a yandere novel coming to life...]

[In the novel: Wow! So handsome! In real life: Uncle Hat, help!]

[After spending so much money, what's wrong with having some requests?]

[Did the person upstairs just escape from a mental hospital?]

Lao Ba also felt deep sympathy for Yan Lili's tragic experience; such a nice girl had to encounter such a thing.

"This guy first tried to reconcile by spending millions of shark fins, but the girl was stubborn. She preferred to get her money back rather than be manipulated, and the guy completely lost it."

Lao Ba sighed, "First, he posted a few plane tickets, then he posted hotel check-in records, and posted a message implying something."

He paused for a moment, then said, "Everyone knows what I'm implying, but I can't go into details, Lao Ba."

[Instant Understanding]

[A big brother and a female streamer, isn't this perfectly normal?]

[Who said that? Some guys are just career-oriented and might not even be gay.]

【Innocent……】

"Later, he realized that this record wouldn't make much of a splash, so he dropped a bombshell and released a bunch of salty photos of the ship. Although it was later confirmed by technicians that the photos were photoshopped using AI technology, it caused a huge stir at the time."

"All the remaining big brothers of Salt Grain have broken their brands and run away, and they have lost a lot of fans."

This story dominated the platform's trending topics for a week.

[Being famous across all platforms and not breaking down is a testament to mental strength]

This method is indeed true.

"If you can't have it, you'll destroy it, right?"

[Foul odor (vomiting)]

[There might actually be something going on, otherwise why would they bring this up?]

Lao Ba was unhappy when he saw this comment.

I disagree with what you're saying.

"To be honest, we might have met up or had a meal together, since his ticket stubs weren't fake, but if you're talking about 'that,' that probably didn't happen."

Lao Ba analyzed it for him carefully, "Think about it, if he can do something like posting AI-generated ship photos everywhere, if there's really something going on, wouldn't he leave some evidence? Wouldn't he release it?"

"Is this guy some kind of good person?" Lao Ba asked, posing a profound question.

Hey, you've hit the nail on the head, Lao Ba!

[Laughs, he really isn't a good person.]

[Spot on the mark]

As he spoke, Lao Ba stroked his slicked-back hair again, "Besides, Yan Lili used to be quite protective of her reputation. In my opinion, she's not the kind of person who would give up an entire gold mine for a single cash cow."

"It's a pity that everything was muddied up by my brother's actions. What a waste."

[Yellow mud fell into my crotch—]

Even if it's not shit, it's still shit.

This kind of thing is impossible to explain.

Old Ba nodded in agreement and said, "How can you explain it clearly? There will always be people who won't listen to clarification or believe it. Even though the Salt Grain incident has been filed as a case, Uncle Hat has detained the rumor-mongers, and the court has issued a verdict, there are still some people who just won't listen and think that everyone else is drunk and they are the only ones who are sober. What can you say about that?"

This type of person is known as a "know-it-all".

[Clearly a clown (doge)]

"Brothers, it's easy to throw dirty water, but it's hard for the person who got splashed to wash it clean."

Lao Ba warned everyone: "In the future, we should be a little more careful when we speak, and not speak carelessly."

Otherwise, if you just have a little itch in your mouth, it would be unethical for others to have to pay for it.

[Old Ba, you're radiating positive energy!]

[He actually spoke human language today!]

【Pigsy, you feel like a stranger to me!】

"What do you mean? Lao Ba has always been a positive role model for streamers, okay? I never gossip!" Lao Ba rolled his eyes and retorted.

"Anyway, that's how it is. Yanli and this former big brother fought for three or four months. In the end, although she won the lawsuit, both the fans and the big brother left."

"In the end, the rumor-monger got into Orange, and Salt Grain couldn't continue broadcasting. After the incident, he broadcasted several times but there was no buzz, and everyone was just watching the show. He was so angry that the girl cried on the spot, and he stopped broadcasting for several months, almost leaving the industry."

Lao Ba took out his folding fan and flicked it again. "Alright, I've finished explaining the background to those who are unclear. Next, let's talk about how Yanlili turned the tide when she was facing retirement from the scene."

This brings us to a new super-rich tycoon—

"Trying to steal my spot, are you?" Lao Ba laughed and scolded. "How about I give you this position so you can broadcast it?"

【Old Eight, you said (flattery)】

Old Eight shook his head and said slowly, "This brings us to a new super-rich person—Youmian Qiuyu."

"From level 0 to level 90, Brother Qiuyu tells you—it only takes 47 days."

[In less than two months, millions of shark fins...]

[I'm laughing at my own stupidity (laughs loudly)]

[Wake up, Lao Ba! You're already level 93!]

Lao Ba felt a pang of heartache. "Of course I know. This is the data I compiled earlier."

"About two months ago, during the farewell live stream between Yanlili and her remaining fans, Brother Qiuyu miraculously appeared, learned about the cause and effect, and directly spent 10 sets of 9999 yuan to sign up for a membership card, saying: 'Why refund? The victims are innocent.'"

[So handsome!!]

Brother Qiuyu's values are impeccable.

[He has sound values, is rich, and supposedly quite handsome.]

[Qiuyu proposed to me, should I say yes or no?]

Wake up, you're just dreaming.

Lao Ba was incredibly envious: "It all depends on luck. With Brother Qiuyu around, Yanlili has become more confident, and his career is booming. His luck has turned around."

Thinking about my monthly income makes me want to cry!

"Whether you earn a lot or a little is fate," Lao Ba shook his head. "Then let's look at the next one."

【Red Bean and Sunflower King!】

I have a feeling that something's not quite right between them.

[They're practically revealing their hand...]

"Red Bean is in the live stream today... Oh my! Thank you so much for the rocket from Kui Huang!"

Kui Huang arrived right on time.

[Aoi Sanzan: Let's not talk about it for now]

Temporarily? That's where things get interesting.

Lao Ba pondered to himself, but didn't show it on his face: "Ah, don't worry! I, Lao Ba, have always been reliable."

As he spoke, he pulled down the zipper on his mouth.

"Then let's talk about Tu Shen."
