Chapter 101: Xia Wanyuan Flaunt her Moves
[ Brother is blushing! ]
[ Oh my god, little brother is shy. He’s so cute. ]
[ Why is her younger brother so good at games? He’s handsome and so cute! ]
[ The person in front, stop talking. I just pulled my brother out and beat him up. ]
Xia Yu had rarely received praise since he was young. Everyone looked at him differently with three types of gazes.
The first type was like Mother Xia and Han Yuan, who treated him as a thorn in their side. They wished he would disappear as soon as possible and not snatch the Xia family’s property from their children.
The other type was the uncles and aunties in the Xia family who had watched him grow up. They looked at him with pity and pity.
There was also a look of disdain that was commonly added to him by the outside world, as if he was a useless young master who ate, drank, and played.
Hence, Xia Yu was especially embarrassed by Xia Wanyuan’s praise. He blushed and shifted his gaze unnaturally. “I’m alright. I’m only a little stronger than you. After all, I’ve never seen anyone weaker than you.”
Although he was shy, Xia Yu’s mouth was still unforgiving.
Xia Wanyuan looked at Xia Yu in amusement. “Finish this quickly.”
“Mm.” Because Xia Yu was busy talking to Xia Wanyuan, he did not notice that his teammates had been wiped out after a fight.
Only a carefree Luna and a helpless Cai Wenji were left.
The enemy was still a little afraid of Xia Yu’s heroic feat of fighting five people alone and walked towards the base hesitantly.
Unexpectedly, while they were hesitating about whether to look for Xia Yu, Xia Yu had already come forward.
Five seconds later.
“Luna has completed the fifth kill!!!!”
……….
His teammate had already forgotten how he had mocked Luna just now. He was calling her God more happily than anyone else.
[ One more round. I haven’t seen enough. ]
[ Wow, I still want to see my younger brother play Luna. He’s too handsome. ]
[ Luna can fight five people in younger brother’s hands, but in mine, it’s five hitting me. ]
[ The person in front is too realistic. Why is the difference between people so huge? ]
“I said I wanted to play support for my sister.” Xia Yu saw the comments in the live-stream but still returned the phone to Xia Wanyuan.
After watching Xia Yu fight just now, Xia Wanyuan had roughly figured out the technique and mechanism of this hero.
Taking the phone, Xia Wanyuan still chose Luna, who had just humiliated her.
Meanwhile, Xia Yu still took the cute nanny.
Everyone watched happily. They felt that Xia Yu would have to help Xia Wanyuan as she would not know how to play.
However, they did not expect that after the first team battle erupted, Xia Wanyuan would control Luna to float back and forth three times before dying.
Although she did not get the head, it was obvious that she was much better than her reckless actions.
In the following team battles, everyone saw Xia Wanyuan grow at a speed that was visible to the naked eye. By the twelfth minute of the game, Xia Wanyuan could already imitate thirty to forty percent of what Xia Yu had just done.
Everyone was stunned when they saw Luna, who had been slow and sluggish the last time, starting to show off her skills.
[ No, does gaming get passed down in family genes? ]
[ I’m shocked. Isn’t this improvement a little too fast? ]
[ That’s pretty amazing. If you practice more, it won’t be a problem for you to win a provincial Luna. ]
With the announcement of “victory”, the ridicule directed at Xia Wanyuan lessened. The comments also began to spam 666.
However, at that moment, a large group of organized and disciplined alternate accounts began to appear in the live-stream, filling the malicious comments.
Chapter 102: Master Jun Generously Pays a Million Dollars
[ Trash ]
[ Trash ]
[ She’s acting like a big shot and her acting skills are bad. ]
[ She’s acting like a big shot and her acting skills are bad. ]
The live-stream that had just been very normal suddenly had many similar comments. Furthermore, because there were many alternate accounts that sent the comments, the management of the live-stream could not stop these comments even if he wanted to.
Many viewers would have the habit of opening their comments when watching a live broadcast. Now, these comments had completely disrupted everyone’s impression, so many people withdrew from the live-stream.
Anyway, there was another group of celebrity siblings who they could watch next door, so there was no need to watch these annoying comments here.
Ruan Nian looked at the rising popularity of the live-stream and was relieved.
Many viewers were attracted by the gimmick of the celebrity siblings playing together, but Xia Wanyuan and Xia Yu’s appearances were too outstanding just now. The difference was too great, and everyone could not accept it.
Unlike Xia Yu who played Cai Wenji for protection, Ruan Nian killed everyone in the live-stream with an assassin. Ruan Yingyu tried her best to heal Ruan Nian with Cai Wenji but to no avail. She often died in the hands of the enemy because Ruan Nian betrayed her.
[ Emmmm, they must be plastic siblings. ]
[ After seeing you guys, I suddenly feel that Xiaoyu is really quite good. ]
[ Tsk, your younger brother really sold his sister without any hesitation. ]
Seeing that the comments in the live-stream were getting more and more amiss, Ruan Nian turned on the live-stream lucky draw and set up a 1000 dollars lucky draw every ten minutes. The doubts in the comments were immediately covered up by the comments.
In Xia Yu’s live-stream, a large number of alternate accounts were still commenting maliciously. As Xia Yu and Xia Wanyuan were extremely serious gamers, they did not realize that many people had left the live-stream and the comments were chaotic and unsightly.
Chen Yun watched Xia Wanyuan’s live broadcast at home and was extremely anxious. It was rare for her to have a business activity, so how did this happen?
While he was panicking, Xia Yu’s live-stream suddenly exploded with shooting stars.
In order to attract fans to reward the broadcaster, the live-stream platform had set up many gifts with special effects. The more gorgeous the special effects, the more valuable the gifts were.
The Cat’s Tooth Platform had a gift setting of as much as one hundred thousand dollars.
This meteor shower was the legendary “Myriad Star” gift special effect that cost 100,000 dollars.
“The user Ling has gifted the broadcaster, Xiaoyu, “Myriad of Stars”. Everyone, quickly come to the live-stream to dig for treasures.”
[ F*ck, what a rich person. ]
[ Amazing. Which rich person is starting to spend money again? ]
[ Tsk, tsk, tsk. A hundred thousand dollars is gone after this rain. ]
An expensive gift naturally had its own status. Once the gift “Myriad of Stars” was rewarded to the broadcaster, the Cat’s Tooth Platform would post a link to this broadcaster’s live-stream in all the live-streams on the platform.
Hence, many people’s attention was attracted.
“Come, let’s prepare for the lucky draw.” When the meteor shower finally passed, Ruan Nian’s face was stiff as he prepared to draw for the fans in the live-stream.
“The user Ling has rewarded the broadcaster, Xiaoyu, with a myriad of stars. Everyone, come and dig for treasure!”
A luxurious and gorgeous meteor shower floated past again.
[NB]
[ How rich. ]
[ I’m just not going to that live-stream. I just want to see how many more this rich person will spam today. ]
[ The life of a rich person is indeed so monotonous. If you have nothing to do, show yourself a meteor shower that costs 100,000 dollars. I want to have such pure happiness too. ]
Before anyone could finish typing…
“The user Ling has rewarded the broadcaster, Xiaoyu, with a myriad of stars. Everyone, come and dig for treasure!”
Chapter 103: Xiao Bao Forcefully Cheats his Father, Princess shows Her Talent
[………]
[ Is he that rich? 300,000 dollars is gone in such a short time. ]
[ Tycoon NB, can’t I take back my words? I’ll roll over and see which god is so amazing. ]
In the past, there were also rich fans who would give gifts like Myriad of Stars to promote the streamer they liked. However, that was only once or twice, but it could still cause a sensation on the platform.
It was the first time everyone had seen a rich person press Myriad of Stars thrice in a minute. Hence, many people were attracted to Xia Yu’s live-stream.
When they entered the live-stream, they were first shocked by Xia Wanyuan and Xia Yu’s appearances. They confirmed a few times that this was a gaming live-stream and not a Star Show live-stream.
They then looked at the hero the two of them were playing. Xia Wanyuan, who looked like a fairy, was actually playing with Luna, who was extremely difficult to operate. The arrogant and sunny youth was actually playing with the cute nanny who had been spinning in circles.
It had to be said that this contrast was very attractive to the audience, especially when everyone realized that Luna’s maneuvering was outstanding.
After two or three rounds of tempering, Xia Wanyuan’s learning ability was already very strong. Now, she could already fly around on the map gracefully.
After a round of games, the results of 12-0-8 made countless people cheer.
The special effects that had stopped for a while lit up again.
Everyone was already numb to the special effects of the gift. They just wanted to see when this rich person would stop eating lemons so easily.
“Daddy, when can we stop?”
In the study on the second floor of the manor, Xiao Bao was playing with his toys with a bitter expression on his face. Every once in a while, he would click on the left button of the mouse while Jun Shiling sat and edited the documents Lin Jing had sent him.
However, Xiao Bao actually did not know what was on the computer. Considering Xiao Bao’s eyes, Jun Shiling stopped the mouse on the gift icon, then turned the back of the computer to Xiao Bao and gave the mouse to him, asking him to click on it every once in a while.
Xiao Bao, who was playing Ultraman, was extremely unwilling, but under Jun Shiling’s influence, he accepted this glorious and difficult task.
Jun Shiling put down the documents and sat in front of the computer, looking at the situation in the live-stream.
Then, he looked speechlessly at Xiao Bao, who was playing with the Ultras on the ground.
This prodigal son.
Jun Shiling had instructed Xiao Bao to click on it every once in a while. He would send a gift every ten to twenty minutes.
However, it was obvious that Xiao Bao’s understanding was different from Jun Shiling’s.
The computer screen showed that in just half an hour, Xiao Bao had sent out fifty Myriad of Stars.
The total value was five million dollars.
Sensing Jun Shiling’s gaze, Xiao Bao looked up from the toy, his big black grape-like eyes showing obvious adoration. “Daddy, my hand hurts. Huhu…”
……
Jun Shiling’s expression darkened. “Stop playing. Go and do the homework the teacher assigned.”
“Oh.” Xiao Bao’s chubby face fell. Boohoo, when will Mommy be done? Daddy is so fierce. He made me click on the mouse for a long time but he didn’t blow on it.
In the live-stream, everyone waited for the nouveau riche to farm Starry Sky for the tenth time. They thought to themselves, ‘It’s time to stop. One million dollars, Brother.’
It didn’t stop.
The second ten times.
No!
The third set of ten times.
The fourth ten times.
The fifth ten times.
Later on, everyone had already turned into ice sculptures as they watched the rich gamers’ game.
When the fiftieth meteor shower ended, everyone was still in a daze. Five minutes later, after confirming that this big shot was no longer spamming gifts, everyone finally started commenting.
[ My eyes hurt. It’s raining cats and dogs. My eyes are filled with golden flowers. ]
[ I originally wanted to come and eat melon seeds, but I didn’t expect the rich guy to smash a melon field for me. ]
[ Is this the power of a big shot???? I really don’t understand the world of the rich. ]
[ That’s too amazing. I’m stunned. This is the first time I’ve seen 50 meteor showers together in my life. How rich is he? ]
[ I just wanted to ask if this big shot still needs a leg accessory? The kind that can eat, sleep, and not work. ]
Xia Wanyuan and Xia Yu naturally saw the endless meteor shower. One look and they knew that Jun Shiling had painted the eye-catching ‘Ling’ character.
Xia Yu was touched by Jun Shiling. He didn’t expect Jun Shiling to support his live-stream so much.
Hence, Jun Shiling unintentionally made a good impression on Xia Yu.
Xia Wanyuan didn’t know the rules of the live-stream platform. She only saw that Jun Shiling had given her a gift, but she didn’t know how much it was worth. Hence, she appeared especially calm.
[ Seeing how calm the broadcaster and Xia Wanyuan are, I knew I was a bumpkin. ]
[ Wait for me, bumpkin in front. I’m your brother’s vegetable bun. ]
[ Bring me along, the person in front. I’m a poor bun. ]
[ Other fans have spent so much money, but these two don’t even have a word of thanks? How can they be streamers? ]
[ That’s right. Ruan Nian’s live-stream next door even sponsored the lucky draw himself. The fans here rewarded the broadcaster so many gifts, but the broadcaster actually looks like he’s not related. ]
Some unknown alternate accounts started commenting on the comments, while Xia Wanyuan and Xia Yu were indeed too calm.
Everyone began to criticize Xia Yu.
Because the gift that Jun Shiling had given him was too valuable, he directly became the emperor of the entire live-stream.
The rule of the Cat’s Tooth Platform was that when the emperor spoke, the entire screen was silent.
Hence, everyone could not send out the comments that were fighting for justice for the big shots.
In the entire live-stream, only the comments “No need to thank” posted by Ling floated on it.
……….
Everyone was speechless. If the big boss didn’t care, why were we rushing to join in the fun?
In Ruan Nian’s live-stream next door, the popularity that had been brought up by the lucky draw was immediately brought over by the endless stream of Myriad of Stars in Xiaoyu’s live-stream.
He originally wanted to wait for the special effects of the gift to pass, but who would have thought that this wait would take more than half an hour?
Looking at the stars one after another, Ruan Yingyu was extremely jealous. How could I be suppressed by Xia Wanyuan!?
Ruan Yingyu finally suppressed her anger. When the gift effects next door stopped, she looked at the extremely popular person next door and came up with an idea.
“Everyone is tired from playing the game for so long. Let me sing a song for everyone.”
Ruan Yingyu put down her phone and adjusted the sound card. She chose a song she had posted in the past and hummed it softly.
Ruan Yingyu’s voice was sweet and beautiful. Together with the sound effects of the sound card, it was indeed very pleasant to listen to. Many people rushed in when they heard the news.
At that moment, in Xia Yu’s live-stream, many fans saw Ruan Yingyu singing next door and encouraged Xia Yu and Xia Wanyuan to show off their talents.
Chapter 104: The Princess’ Song Shocks the World
“It’s about time. Let’s perform for everyone at the end.”
Initially, Xia Wanyuan didn’t prepare anything. She wanted to come to Xia Yu’s live-stream to guest star in it, but Chen Yun kept telling her that it was not easy for her to have a chance to show her face, so she had to perform well.
[ Xia Wanyuan’s talent … Emmmm]
[ To be honest, I’ve been traumatized by that song of hers ever since she sang that song at the gala. ]
[ I feel like laughing. What does Xia Wanyuan want to do? Sing? ]
Xia Wanyuan left the camera, and not long after, she returned to the live-stream.
“The drama ‘The Long Ballad’ is about to meet everyone. I’m playing a role with a very long story inside. Let me sing a character song for everyone.”
With that, Xia Wanyuan stood up and sat in front of the cloth-covered frame by the window.
The audience in the live-stream was very puzzled. It was just a song. What is she doing? (italics)
Many people were spamming question marks in the live-stream.
Chen Yun, who was also watching the live broadcast at home and observing Xia Wanyuan’s movements, felt worried.
Heavenly spirit, earth spirit, please don’t cause trouble, Ancestor Xia. (italics)
He had been in charge of Xia Wanyuan for a long time. If Xia Wanyuan had any talent, he would not have to worry about her idling at home every day.
While everyone in the live-stream was feeling restless, Xia Wanyuan removed the silk cloth covering the shelf in front of her.
A zither that seemed to be filled with a sense of historical sediment shone faintly.
[ What is this?? ]
[ Guzheng? ]
[ Guzheng doesn’t look like this, right? This one looks pretty good too. ]
[ F*ck, I’m shocked. This looks like Feng Xiqin! ]
[ I’m a bumpkin in front. What is Feng Xiqin? ]
[ I’m also a bumpkin in front, but I know a little. Feng Xiqin is said to be a centuries-old zither that has been lost on the market for a long time. I wonder if the one in front of Xia Wanyuan is the one. If it’s Feng Xiqin, it would be amazing. ]
There were still some professionals in the comments. They were right. The one in front of Xia Wanyuan was the legendary Feng Xiqin.
According to the historical records, a few hundred years ago, the famous master of musical instruments, Lin Qian, had a daydream by the waters of Phoenix Mountain Creek. In his dream, he had a hundred birds worshipping the phoenix, and immortal music pierced the sky. After he woke up from his dream, an ancient tree appeared beside the master. It was the best material to make a top-grade ancient zither.
Master Lin Qian had gained inspiration from his dream and created this top-notch ancient zither. However, according to the legends, when Master Lin Qian passed away in meditation, he had placed this ancient zither beside him. Hundreds of birds came to pay their respects. In the end, the hundred birds brought the Feng Xiqin back to Mount Fengxi. From then on, this ancient zither of the ages had never appeared in the future.
The reason why the comments could recognize the zither was mainly because the Feng Xiqin had extremely obvious characteristics.
In the camera, the zither in front of Xia Wanyuan was full in shape and had a black face. There was a jade emblem, a jade zither, a jade foot, a round dragon pool, and a rectangular shape of a phoenix swamp. On the head of the zither, the two words “Feng Xi” were written in green. On the left and right of the dragon pool, there was an engraving of Li Shuming: “Its voice thick and manly, its charm and its impetus”.
It really matched the Feng Xiqin recorded in the history books.
However, they could not believe that they could see Feng Xiqin, whom their teachers had wanted to see but had never seen in their lives, just by watching a gaming live broadcast.
Ignoring the comments, Xia Wanyuan raised her hand and placed it on the zither strings, playing it softly.
A deep clear sound spread from the zither string, as if it startled the soul voice that had been sleeping for a thousand years. This sound was as if the ancient zither was recounting its thousand years of longevity. An ancient ink painting unfolded in front of everyone.
[ AHHHH!!! I learned Guzheng!! Just one sound of this zither gives me goosebumps!! This must be the legendary Feng Xiqin! ]
[ Such a NB zither must be very expensive. Xia Wanyuan is also rich, but it’s a pity that she ruined this ancient zither. ]
[ The person in front, you’re speaking a little too early. From the way Xia Wanyuan raised her hand just now, she really doesn’t look like she hasn’t practiced the ancient zither. ]
[ As a lover of the ancient zither, I just want to touch the legendary Feng Xiqin. Boohoo, she has a cute younger brother and Feng Xiqin. I’m so sour. How can the difference between people be so huge? ]
In the study, Jun Shiling, who had already left the computer table to continue reviewing documents, heard the melodious sound of the zither and returned to the computer.
After Xia Wanyuan gently fiddled with it a few times, it was as if she had already adapted to the sound of the ancient zither. Her ten fingers fiddled with it, and a melody that was like spring water spilled out from her fingertips.
The pan-sound was like the sound of nature, cold and immortal. The lingering charm under her fingers was subtle and long. Sometimes, it was like human language, and it could be used to converse. Sometimes, it was like the emotions of the people, ethereal and ever-changing. The deep historical feeling of the ancient zither added some ancient charm to the music.
Everyone seemed to have been brought into a scene where grass grew and birds flew, and flowers bloomed everywhere.
A clear female voice poured into this scene like a clear spring. “Shen Palace of Spring, Cloud…”
Suddenly, the music was decadent. It lost some of its clarity and gained a deeper charm. “The long lamp is like the moon…”
Slowly, the music became extremely loud. However, there was an extreme emptiness in the high notes. It was as if they had reached the peak but had no support. They were about to break through the wind and descend at any moment.
The song stopped, but there was no movement in the live-stream.
Jun Shiling stared at the computer screen quietly.
Today, Xia Wanyuan was wearing a moon-white dress. Her ink-black hair was pure, and her bright eyes and white teeth were like the moon and frost. It blurred the boundary between ancient and modern.
Now that her ten slender fingers were sitting in front of the ancient zither, she was like a painting that had been immersed in ink for a long time. She was noble and peerless, and it seeped into one’s heart.
It was only when Xia Wanyuan announced the end and everyone left the live-stream that everyone was pulled out of the mood they had just been brought into.
[ F*ck… Did she really sing it? ]
[ Is it really not a tape? That’s amazing. ]
[ I’ve always felt that the songs played by this ancient zither are more profound and obscure. This is the first time I’ve heard such a pleasant ancient style song. ]
[ Based on my experience as a person who has been in the ancient style industry for many years, this song is definitely composed by a gold medal composer. This song is really too good. I want the title of the song! ]
[ Xia Wanyuan is so beautiful, my god!! When she was playing the piano, I felt that she was going to fly away in the next second!! She’s too beautiful! I’m sorry, the organization. I’m going to defect. I’ve decided to be a fan of this little sister. ]
[ The betrayer in front, bring me along. Although I’ve always heard that Xia Wanyuan has a lot of scandals, she’s really good-looking. She’s such a beautiful sister who plays the piano and sings well! I really love her. ]
Outside the live-stream, Chen Yun was frozen like a stone statue.
Chapter 105: The Princess Was Confused
From the moment Xia Wanyuan lifted the silk cloth, Chen Yun’s heart had died. He didn’t know what Xia Wanyuan was up to, but he knew that Xia Wanyuan was going to be dragged out again to be criticized and reprimanded.
Then, Xia Wanyuan began to play the zither. The moment the melodious sound of the zither came out, Chen Yun’s dead heart had this thought, “I can still be saved, really.”
After Xia Wanyuan finished playing, Chen Yun, like everyone else in the live-stream, was immersed in the world that Xia Wanyuan had created for them with music.
Chen Yun was a manager. Although he didn’t know much about music, he had good taste and knew what kind of music was good.
Using emotions to immerse oneself in the music and using the sound as the brush, one could create a world in a few minutes of the music. Furthermore, one could bring the person who listened to the song into this world. Such a song was of high quality.
And he had just seen this spiritual essence in Xia Wanyuan, who had once been a useless person.
When he saw the comments praising Xia Wanyuan, Chen Yun was so excited that he bit off his instant noodles spoon.
Xia Yu did not expect Xia Wanyuan to know how to play the zither. Although he did not know music, he still found it pleasant.
The live-stream was abuzz and filled with the aftershocks left behind by Xia Wanyuan. The popularity of Ruan Nian’s live-stream next door had long been surpassed by Xia Yu.
Xia Yu was still continuing the live broadcast. After all, Xia Wanyuan had only agreed on a two-hour guest time with the platform. Including the time she spent playing games and playing the piano, it had already passed. Xia Wanyuan pushed open the door and walked out.
After staring at her phone screen for a long time and playing the zither for a while, Xia Wanyuan felt a little bored, so she went downstairs to the manor’s garden to sit.
The garden was filled with running water that flowed in the night. It was already the end of spring, and many flowers had already wilted. The young fruits began to poke their heads out.
The air was less sweet and only had a hint of green when the evening breeze blew occasionally.
It had been a long time since she had played the zither. The Feng Xiqin that Uncle Wang had found was indeed a good zither. The moment Xia Wanyuan touched it, she felt that her thoughts were connected to the ancient zither.
The deep historical feeling of the zither made Xia Wanyuan even more adept at playing the song. But at the same time, because of this ancient feeling, it evoked the loneliness that Xia Wanyuan had buried in her heart for a long time.
How could she be completely adapted to it? She was born in the Xia Dynasty and had grown up in the Xia Dynasty. Her younger siblings, who she had relied on for survival, were all in the Xia Dynasty. Her teachers and friends were all in the Xia Dynasty.
However, in this era a thousand years later, there were records of her previous dynasties. Only the Xia Dynasty seemed to have been erased from history books, without any traces.
It was as if the entire Xia Dynasty was a dream that only existed in her mind. However, she knew that it was not a dream.
After arriving here, she had borrowed someone else’s body to be reborn. With the cute Xiao Bao accompanying her, she did not seem so lonely, but she always felt that she was drifting away from this world.
Sometimes, when she was in a daze, she would think about why God sent her to the modern world. This era was sufficiently advanced and open. There was no need for her.
She was a person who had intruded into the future by mistake. She had accepted the original owner’s son, career, family, entered the entertainment industry, filmed movies, and followed the original owner’s path. Because from the bottom of her heart, it seemed like she had never found her own path.
Initially, she had been experiencing modern life and had been busy with all kinds of work. She did not expect that the zither today would bring out the deepest confusion in her heart.
