Celebrity Neighbor: My girlfriend is a big star?
Chapter 50. Top 1 Big Sister

Chapter 50: 50. Top 1 Big Sister

At this moment, Liu Xin’an, who was live streaming, was extremely excited.

He had been streaming for quite a few years, but this was the first time he received such a big donation like a Governor.

In the early days, he was a game streamer who didn’t show his face. Although his voice was pleasant, attracting female fans who were big spenders wasn’t easy without showing his face.

How many of those watching games are really willing to spend money on a streamer?

He wasn’t one of those streamers who attracted viewers with revealing outfits either, so relying on his voice and games to attract men to spend money on him wasn’t very realistic.

So, he had quite a few captains but not many admirals, and certainly no Governors.

After showing his face, a guild did approach him, offering to spend money to boost his popularity, including having a few Governors.

But Liu Xin’an’s stance was clear: he streamed simply as a personal interest. Even now that it had become his main job, he didn’t want to change his streaming style for money.

So he straightforwardly refused.

Without company support, he certainly wouldn’t be bored enough to spend his own money to boost his popularity with a Governor title... So from the start, he didn’t pay much attention to the idea of a Governor.

But today... the first Governor of his streaming career appeared out of nowhere.

He had no prior knowledge of it, and he never saw anyone in the fan group discussing crowdfunding for a Governor... meaning that this Governor was entirely a spontaneous donation from a fan with a string of numbers in their username.

He paused his game, looking at the nickname with a small TV avatar that had already taken the top spot on the fan list, and said with a still somewhat excited voice, "bili_57920337385, you must be using a new account... Don’t misunderstand, everyone. If this Governor’s donation was from my own pocket or someone I asked, may all my game saves be corrupted."

In the gaming community, this was quite a harsh oath. As soon as he said it, the barrage went from "Did you spend the money yourself?" to "What a generous boss!"

Liu Xin’an, unable to hide his excitement, coughed and said, "bili_57920337385, boss, I’ve sent you the QR code for the captain’s group via private message. Just scan the code to join the group, and you can talk to me directly about anything. In our live stream, the Governor can do whatever they please, I keep my word!"

His words stirred up a new wave among the viewers, with jokes like "National Paratrooper" and "take three to five days off" flooding the screen.

Liu Xin’an bantered with the fans for a bit and then waited for a while.

After not receiving a reply from the big spender, he didn’t keep waiting foolishly but picked up the controller and resumed his paused game.

After all, the live stream viewers weren’t just this one boss, so he still had to serve his other supporters.

Meanwhile, when Bae Juhyun saw the game resume on her screen, she stopped her recording, somewhat understanding what had happened.

It was probably Liu Xin’an expressing his thanks for her generous donation.

She didn’t continue watching the stream but muted it and minimized it in the background, opening up a translation app.

She had downloaded several voice translation apps, fearing the translations might not be accurate.

Until the translation device arrived, she had to make do with online software.

Bae Juhyun played back her recording and pointed it at her tablet, letting the technology do its work.

Fortunately, Liu Xin’an’s Mandarin was standard, without any convoluted sentences, making the translation by the app accurate.

The main content matched what Bae Juhyun had expected: expressions of gratitude followed by explanations.

But this QR code... when Vivian Ning taught her to use WeChat, she scanned a similar code to add her as a contact.

So the code Liu Xin’an sent her might be for the same purpose?

Thinking this, Bae Juhyun quickly took out her phone, opened the WeChat app, and activated the QR code scanner.

Wait! Hold on!

Before scanning, she hurriedly closed the scanner.

She then opened her profile on WeChat, staring at her blank avatar and nickname.

Shouldn’t she decorate her WeChat account a bit?

Ah, by the way, she could set WeChat to Korean in the settings, so using it was very convenient for her.

Soon, Bae Juhyun made a series of hasty changes to her profile.

For the avatar... she randomly picked a cute little bunny.

For the nickname, she used an emoji "(:3rz)".

After doing all of this, she dared to scan the QR code Liu Xin’an had sent her in the private message on Bilibili.

The scan led to a group chat.

Bae Juhyun was taken aback. She understood the text of the group join request but... wasn’t this supposed to be Liu Xin’an’s contact info?

After spending so much money, she couldn’t even get Liu Xin’an’s contact information?!

Bae Juhyun felt a growing sense of frustration.

There was even a figurative "Aggrieved" character written across her forehead.

But she wasn’t adamant enough to refuse joining the group, considering she already spent the money. Not joining the group would just mean Liu Xin’an got the better of her for nothing?!

...That line of thought was a bit awkward.

But awkward or not, the logic was sound!

After joining the group, soon a new world opened up before Bae Juhyun.

Because WeChat had a built-in translation feature, she could understand some of the conversations in the group.

Though she wasn’t really interested in the chatters, she clicked on the "···" in the top right corner of the group chat.

Group chats, no matter which country they’re from, don’t differ much.

So Bae Juhyun believed the first person in the list was Liu Xin’an.

With Vivian Ning’s guidance, she knew about the existence of Moments, so she tapped on the avatar of the first person listed in the group info.

She then entered their Moments.

Sure enough, she immediately recognized Liu Xin’an’s familiar face.

Bae Juhyun smiled slightly, scrolling through Liu Xin’an’s Moments with interest.

However...

"...Why can I only see ten posts?"

Bae Juhyun pouted but figured that since she found Liu Xin’an’s social media, it shouldn’t be too much to ask to add the small streamer on WeChat as a friend, right?

She sent a friend request, along with her recent donation nickname.

Seconds later, her request was accepted...

On the other end, Liu Xin’an sent her a message.

"Thanks, boss! You’re so generous!"

After the translation, she understood Liu Xin’an’s message.

Bae Juhyun chuckled and typed in Korean into her translation app, then copied the translated Chinese text into the chat.

"Keep up the good work."

That was her reply to Liu Xin’an. She didn’t respond to any further messages from Liu Xin’an immediately but rather opened his Moments again.

This time, she should be able to see everything!

———

As she scrolled, she went back to 2015...

Before officially scrolling through Liu Xin’an’s Moments, she casually reopened the live stream on her tablet.

It wasn’t until she heard Liu Xin’an say "bye-bye" in the stream that she snapped back to reality.

Liu Xin’an was a person who loved sharing his life, and his Moments were filled with numerous little details he captured from his everyday life. From those snippets, Bae Juhyun felt she could glimpse his past life.

There weren’t many selfies, probably because Liu Xin’an wasn’t very good at taking them?

However, there were quite a few mirror shots from the gym. Like many others, besides using the gym to stay fit, he clearly used it to show off!

Bae Juhyun eagerly saved all of Liu Xin’an’s selfies and stored them in a hidden album on her phone.

After doing all this, she belatedly realized what a silly thing she’d just done.

Feeling flustered and hot, she twisted and turned, her high-pitched squeals echoing through her quiet home.

She was probably embarrassed by her own fangirl-like behavior.

After ruffling her long hair into a mess, she suddenly remembered that Liu Xin’an had likely finished his stream by now.

She quickly ran to her walk-in closet, grabbed a warm, cozy coat, and opened the balcony door.

Before she could sit down, she heard Liu Xin’an’s voice from next door.

"Oh, out to enjoy the moonlight?"

Well, speaking in Korean felt totally different from when he spoke in Mandarin. Holding onto this little secret, Bae Juhyun was in high spirits, a bright smile crossing her delicate face.

"What a coincidence~"

"Yeah, such a coincidence! Let me tell you, I had an unbelievably lucky day today!"

Liu Xin’an loved sharing his life and also had a penchant for showing off.

Like a kid with a new favorite candy... the appearance of his first Governor had left him in an extremely excited state.

How could he not share such a noteworthy event with Bae Juhyun?

Bae Juhyun could guess why Liu Xin’an was so excited, after all, she was the one who gave him this excitement!

...That statement did sound a bit strange, though.

"What happened?"

"I received my first Governor today! Um... a fan spent a lot of money on me!" he said, a hint of pride in his tone.

"Oh~ So you’re very excited now?" Bae Juhyun asked, feigning surprise, her smile growing even brighter.

This sneaky feeling was exhilarating. She was curious about Liu Xin’an’s reaction when he found out she was the fan.

"Of course! This is a recognition of my years of streaming. I think this person must have been watching my streams for a long time before deciding to donate. They even used a small account to do it, very thoughtful~"

Liu Xin’an’s voice carried a mix of gratitude and relief, causing Bae Juhyun’s smile to freeze.

Oh no, now she wasn’t curious at all about his reaction upon learning the truth.

Not just uninterested, she felt the need to lock this truth away forever!
