Chapter 344: Chapter 344: Actually has one million fans?!

Just as he was about to slip into sweet slumber and catch up on some much-needed sleep, the familiar thumping noise from upstairs began.

Then came all kinds of string sounds, including the erhu, piano, and even an electric guitar.

Jiang Yan became increasingly infuriated as he listened, and, giving up on sleep, he trudged upstairs, sure enough, to find Jiang Shixu sitting in the music room, mumbling to his phone.

Because of previous experiences, Jiang Yan really couldn’t mock the little rascal; he could only hold back his anger and go down to Jiang Li’s room.

"This kid, I don’t know what’s gotten into him these past few days, suddenly doing some live streams or whatever and making a racket in the music room every night. I haven’t had a good night’s sleep in days. Can’t you do something about him?"

Initially, when choosing rooms, he had set his sights on this room right below the music room, one with a super large terrace and floor-to-ceiling windows, and he had made a fuss to move in.

Little did he know that the super large terrace would become his current source of trouble.

The room’s uniqueness meant that it couldn’t be fitted with any soundproofing materials, and the large terrace became a natural receptacle for all sorts of noise, magnifying every rustle and bustle before sending it into his room.

He used to even occasionally hear Jiang Shixu’s hair-raising sobs.

The sobbing had ceased lately, but the commotion from the music room had started up again.

On hearing this, Jiang Li was also somewhat surprised, "Jiang Shixu has been doing live streams recently? No wonder he seems so busy every day."

"He didn’t tell you?" Jiang Yan scoffed, "Seems like you’re not doing a great job as a sister, huh."

Jiang Li ignored his sarcasm and got ready, then headed upstairs.

Jiang Yan followed behind, grumbling all the way.

"Don’t go soft on me now, I’m your real brother, he’s just your cousin. I’ve been disturbed so many days, don’t you feel sorry for your real brother at all?"

"No matter how pitiful that kid acts, you just can’t take his side, or I’m going to make a fuss."

Jiang Li didn’t respond, walking directly to the music room’s door. Through the glass, she could clearly see Xiao Shixu sitting at the piano right now.

His delicate and slender fingers danced along the black and white keys, and the melodic tones of the piano intermittently seeped through the wall crevices.

He had improved a lot on the piano, and what was even more unique was that his demeanor had improved significantly.

No longer timid, he radiated a confidence and a brash energy.

Very dazzling.

As if the space he was in wasn’t a music room but an open-air stage with millions of people.

In front of Jiang Shixu was a phone sitting on a stand, its screen flashing with a variety of colorful effects, which Jiang Li, with her own live streaming experience, recognized as tips from viewers.

She identified the nickname on the live stream for a moment, then took out her own phone and searched for the words "Shiguang" in the Quyin app.

Instantly, an account with a little sun avatar popped up. freeweɓnovel.cѳm

Even Jiang Yan craned his neck to take a look, and his eyes widened in shock.

"Holy shit, this kid actually has a million followers?! And here I thought he was just messing around!"

Jiang Li clicked into his profile next.

Jiang Shixu had only posted a dozen or so videos, almost all of them were of him playing various instruments, with the occasional cover song, but without exception, each had over a million likes.

Below every video was a barrage of enthusiastic comments from fans—

"Shiguang, I can’t believe there’s such a good-singing guy on Quyin, I’m so in love!"

"Shiguang, please release more songs, I really love listening to them, your voice is so clean."

"Little brother, when are you live streaming today? I can’t wait to watch."

"Little brother is so handsome, he could totally spruce up and debut as a superstar!"

Jiang Yan felt somewhat resentful; he had worked himself to exhaustion over more than a week and yet hadn’t seen any impact.

As a result, Jiang Shixu casually posted a few videos online and gained over a million fans, even started live streaming, and must have earned a ton of money, right?!

Damn, why was he the only one who had to endure the torturous grind from his own mother?!

As Jiang Shixu’s live stream was coming to an end, Jiang Li finally approached the door and gently knocked.

Jiang Shixu, who had just ended the live stream, hurriedly got up to open the door for her.

His eyes widened with joy when he saw who it was, "Sister, it’s you? What brings you here? You haven’t gone to bed yet, given how late it is?"

"I..." Jiang Shixu said, then a bit embarrassedly looked back, "I was just live streaming. Sister, is there something you need?"

"Actually, it’s not me who needs something, it’s Jiang Yan who needs to talk to you," Jiang Li said, turning her head back to look at Jiang Yan, who stood by the door.

Jiang Shixu followed her gaze and blinked his big eyes.

"Big brother, do you need something?"

"I..."

Initially filled with indignation, Jiang Yan’s anger seemed to dissipate as he looked into Jiang Shixu’s clear, bright eyes, and he suddenly didn’t know where to start.

It was like an overinflated balloon that was about to burst suddenly got deflated by a puncture and lost all air.

After all, the kid had finally found something he was passionate and interested in. Having stopped hiding in his room and secretly wiped his nose all day, why should Jiang Yan dampen his enthusiasm?

With that thought, Jiang Yan scratched his head and said, "It’s nothing. Your sister and I just came to check on you, to tell you to get to bed early. I’ll be off then, don’t mind us, you go on with what you were doing."

Seeing Jiang Yan turn so considerate all of a sudden left Jiang Li feeling somewhat surprised and relieved.

She then went over to Jiang Shixu and patted his head, "Actually, your big brother wanted to come over and tell you not to live stream so late every day. For one, it’s not good for your health; and secondly, it could disturb everyone else’s rest."

"Ah, I didn’t know..." Jiang Shixu immediately felt guilty, "I thought the soundproofing here was good and that it wouldn’t bother everyone..."

Jiang Li pursed her lips, "Who asked Jiang Yan to be so unlucky as to choose a room that looks nice but has no soundproofing, and is right beneath the music room? He’s the only one who’s bothered by the noise."

Jiang Yan glared at Jiang Li, seemingly blaming her for shifting all the responsibility onto him, but then he thought about it and realized that, indeed, it was only him being disturbed in the room below.

Damn, why was he so unlucky?!

"I really didn’t know it would be like this..." Jiang Shixu hung his head, "Big brother, don’t worry. I won’t live stream so late anymore. I’ll adjust my schedule."

Seeing his brother so remorseful, Jiang Yan felt a bit flustered.

He’d never comforted a child before, nor did he know how to do so, and now faced with this situation, all he could do was stand there, scratching his head and tugging at his collar anxiously.

"Well, it’s no big deal, not a problem. If you enjoy it, that’s what matters. Worst comes to worst, I’ll just change rooms to sleep... But as Jiang Li said, staying up so late for live streams isn’t good for your health. Just be mindful of that in the future. I’m not upset with you; don’t misunderstand, alright?"
