Chapter 167: 162. The Big Truth That No One Believes (Thanks to the great benefactor Yang Yi’er, Alliance Hierarch! 2/4)_2

"The fried chicken over here is really good, but I wouldn’t recommend anything else. You might try the kimchi, it feels about the same as what my mom makes at home, quite refreshing and helps cut the grease."

Liu Xin’an glanced at himself on the screen, then casually turned off the camera.

If you’re going to eat, it’s definitely better not to do it in front of the camera.

It’s not that his eating manners were particularly unsightly, but eating... eating in front of an audience was definitely impolite.

But Liu Xin’an was wronging his fans here.

They wouldn’t think it impolite, not just eating, even if Liu Xin’an suddenly started stripping naked in front of the camera... Okay, that’s an exaggeration.

For the fans and viewers, watching the host eat was also an interesting event.

"Huh? Turn on the camera, I’m eating, bosses... Thanks to ’Clear Skies’ boss for the sponsorship, so generous!"

A sponsorship had cheered Liu Xin’an up considerably. What was there in eating in front of his viewers?

Overwhelmed by the power of money, he turned the camera back on, picked up a chicken leg with his gloved left hand, and took a bite.

For someone like Liu Xin’an, who was full of aspiration and diligence, there were some things he was reluctant to do simply because he hadn’t thought them through.

Now that he had decided he really should try harder, Liu Xin’an was no longer resistant to turning on the camera.

Something like eating in front of the camera, he would never have even considered it before.

"Is this what mukbang is all about?"

"Take a bite for you guys to see... Jeez, what kind of freaks are you."

Okay, Liu Xin’an had indeed overestimated himself, as he began to question the mental states of the viewers in his live room.

Showing off half-eaten food for everyone to see was definitely something Liu Xin’an wouldn’t do.

Perhaps in the future he might really transition to mukbang... Okay, he couldn’t imagine doing that sort of thing.

He picked a video about the history of video game development to watch. Liu Xin’an ate his lunch, watched the video, and occasionally responded to questions from the chat.

As time passed, he became more natural in front of the camera.

For himself, he hadn’t yet found a real goal to enhance himself, and the only one, "the big project" was told to him by Mr. Wu from the small station leading the online variety show...

With no real goal, Liu Xin’an set his immediate target on that, and if he really wanted to qualify for that job, the first thing he had to overcome was his nervousness in front of the camera.

Just like now.

As for the other preparatory work...

The project was just outlined; he would take it step by step.

Liu Xin’an, knowing how tedious the effort can be, was not lacking in patience.

Step by step on solid ground, the results would eventually show.

Solidly streaming until seven-thirty in the evening, Liu Xin’an finally bid farewell to the viewers in the live room.

He had had the camera on all afternoon, chatting amiably with the viewers.

Later he streamed some games, but well... it seemed that they weren’t very interested in the new games; instead, they were keener on seeing him play horror games.

Horror games would have to wait though; he had just started using the camera and wasn’t fully acclimated in various ways, like playing horror games where nervousness could make him look foolish... he wasn’t planning to stream them just yet.

His QQ chimed just after he finished streaming.

He glanced at it, and the message wasn’t from a stranger, but from his operator, Early to Bed.

"Today’s data was through the roof. If you show your face tomorrow, I’ll get you a full station push."

That was the literal message from Early to Bed.

Liu Xin’an’s mouth twitched.

Just this afternoon’s barrage of messages had nearly driven him to a nervous breakdown; if a full station push really happened tomorrow, who knows what kind of monsters might show up.

There was a solution, though; Liu Xin’an could just enable fan-only chat mode.

But that wasn’t really ideal... there would always be trolls claiming he couldn’t handle criticism or such.

That could mess with his mental state too.

Popularity was a good thing, but a chat room becoming a mess of fish and dragons again was quite a headache.

"Were there any trolls today?" he typed and asked.

After a while, Early Sleep replied to his message.

"Quite a few, but it didn’t cause much of a stir. Most comments said you were faking integrity... By the way, why did you suddenly decide to show your face, Brother Xin’an?"

Early Sleep was actually quite curious about this change in Liu Xin’an’s mentality.

He had been collaborating with Liu Xin’an for many years, and he could say he knew Liu very well.

But even he didn’t know about this sudden change in Liu Xin’an, which left Early Sleep feeling somewhat resentful.

"I got a girlfriend."

Liu Xin’an replied cheerfully, which Early Sleep obviously knew, since Bae Juhyun had already asked him earlier whether to reveal it to the fans.

"I know, but what does having a girlfriend have to do with this? You want to drive traffic to her?"

Of course, Early Sleep didn’t know that the person who had pressured Liu Xin’an about going public was the big star Bae Juhyun, he never thought about it, assuming Liu was just trying to drive traffic to his girlfriend.

Maybe post a couple’s vlog, have his girlfriend become a beauty blogger... Using Liu Xin’an’s own popularity to skyrocket was not impossible.

Making money, after all, we all understand the drill.

"No, I feel like I’m not good enough for her, want to make an effort."

This time, Early Sleep didn’t reply immediately.

Liu Xin’an, with patience, waited a bit, and realizing there was still no response, casually closed the chat box.

Just as he closed the chat box, another notification sounded.

"Go away! Stop showing off to me!"

This was Early Sleep’s reply.

Liu Xin’an couldn’t help but laugh. His followers didn’t believe him, Early Sleep didn’t believe him either. Is telling the truth these days perceived as lies?

While laughing, another notification popped up on his phone.

Having glanced at the content, Liu Xin’an stood up, unlocked the door, and walked out of his exclusive streaming room.

The living room was brightly lit, and the television was showing some drama he was unfamiliar with.

At that moment, a petite woman was comfortably stretching her legs on the couch, lazily leaning against the back of it.

The sound of the door caused her to turn around, and upon seeing Liu Xin’an, she flashed a bright smile.

"Are you done?"

"Yes, what time did you get back?"

"I’ve been back for a while. Saw no one in your room, figured you were working. Did I disturb you?"

Liu Xin’an shook his head and sat down next to Bae Juhyun.

Not to mention being disturbed; had Bae Juhyun not messaged him, he probably still wouldn’t have known she was already at his place.

"You didn’t disturb me, but I did a webcam stream today."

"Ha! Why didn’t you tell me!" Bae Juhyun’s eyes widened, her breathing quickened slightly. She was the top patron in Liu Xin’an’s streaming chat, and she missed it?

"...Didn’t you want me to stream without showing my face?"

Liu Xin’an, oblivious, was confused. Should he have told Bae Juhyun? Did she not want him to show his face?

Bae Juhyun shook her head, her lips parting slightly as if to say something, but in the end, it was just a helpless sigh.

No worries, she would often search for her boyfriend on some small site, and she figured the face-reveal would quickly be shared.

The previous "material" (video content) of her boyfriend had all been faceless; just hearing his voice really didn’t interest her.

But this time, the material showed his face, and even if she didn’t understand, she could stare at Liu Xin’an’s face and eat a huge meal!

Bae Juhyun thought this and curled up her lips, letting out a suppressed laugh.

Next to her, Liu Xin’an was thoroughly confused by his girlfriend, furrowing his brows, he subtly increased the distance between them.

He reasonably suspected, besides being an amazing girl...

Her mental state might also have some issues.

After today’s interaction with the stream viewers, he considered checking on Bae Juhyun’s mental state again.
