Music began to play in the livestream room.
Lin Beibei softly sang, “You truly understand the only definition~ it’s not as simple as breathing~”
Her gentle, unique, and deeply emotional female voice flowed with the beautiful melody, astonishing the viewers in the livestream.
Sheep Village Boss: “This is the first time I’ve heard the streamer sing, and she sings so beautifully!”
Star: “So good! Love it, sing more!”
Miserable Life Enthusiast: “Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful! From the moment she opened her mouth, it had that Hua Jiunong vibe! The streamer must have seriously practiced! So touched! Having you here is our blessing!”
Jia Fugui: “Really sounds just like Hua Jiunong! If you didn’t know, you’d think it was the real Hua Jiunong herself!”
AAA Building Materials Brother Wang: “Even Hua Jiunong herself would be stunned if she heard this!”
Star: “Honestly, I think she sings better than Hua Jiunong. Hua Jiunong always needs a voice card for singing, but she’s singing a cappella (don’t hate me, I’m just being honest).”
Single Dog: “Singing a cappella? Without a voice card? That’s amazing!”
Momo: “No beauty filters and still dares to sing a cappella. She’s really got talent! Following now!”

Meanwhile, in Zhenzhen’s livestream room,
Zhenzhen was out of breath from her risqué dance. “Big brothers, give me some support! We absolutely can’t lose! There must be big spenders over there!”
Rich Women and Welfare Recipients: “What’s there to fear? We already have 30,000 popularity points, while they’ve only got two lollipops. What can they compete with us?”
Zhenzhen adjusted her hair, pouted, and coquettishly pleaded to the big spenders in her room, “Don’t underestimate them. Given Hua Jiunong’s popularity, there must be big spenders in her room. Let’s not let our guard down or give them a chance to steal the win! If we lose to a newcomer, how will I face anyone? It’d be humiliating!”
Sexy Young Man: “I’ll go check what’s up on the other side!”
The sexy young man left—and never returned.

No wonder Hua Jiunong, with her millions of fans, has such a premium appearance. Singing such heartfelt songs, who wouldn’t be captivated?
Zhenzhen stared at the vanished sexy young man, speechless and choked up: “Can’t come back once they see a beauty? What happened to being my loyal big brother?”

Back in Lin Beibei’s livestream room,
The song ended.
The viewers were still immersed in Lin Beibei’s soulful singing.
Favorite Jiujiu: “I want to hear more! Another song!”
Miserable Life Enthusiast: “So beautiful!”
TTYY: “Keep singing.”
“Keep singing, alright. Song requests require Ferris wheels.”

Lin Beibei was acting as a stand-in for everyone, but she wasn’t performing for free. After the initial sweetness, it was time to start charging.
Yet no one dared to send gifts.
They feared she might end the stream.

Just when Lin Beibei thought she might not meet today’s target, the Ferris wheel animation appeared on the screen.

Human Wealth Flower: “Can we request three songs now?”
Favorite Jiujiu: “@Human Wealth Flower, what are you doing! Who told you to send gifts! Quickly take it back, take it back!!”
Jia Fugui: “Supplement, supplement, end the stream!”
Star: “Clearly, Wealth Flower is new here!”
Miserable Life Enthusiast: “Damn! She’s made her happy again!”

Lin Beibei was indeed happy—who wouldn’t be when making money?
She smiled, forming a heart with her fingers: “Thanks to sister Wealth Flower for the Ferris wheels! That’s right, three songs are on the table!”
Human Wealth Flower: “Call me brother.”
Lin Beibei: “...”
Only then did she realize Wealth Flower was a man and quickly apologized: “Sorry, I thought that name was for a girl...”
Human Wealth Flower: “No worries. Keep singing.”
“Alright, Brother Hua, what do you want to hear?”
Human Wealth Flower: “The song you just sang, three more times.”
“Okay, Brother Hua!”

One Ferris wheel costs 300 yuan; three Ferris wheels meant she earned 900 yuan. Singing three songs was easy money for Lin Beibei.
TTYY: “Sing it once, then sing something else for the other two.”
Human Wealth Flower: “Hey, Alphabet Brother upstairs, I’m the top spender now.”
TTYY: “...Wait, who’s Alphabet Brother??”

When did Gu Chenyi become so spineless?
If not for fearing Lin Beibei ending the stream...
Having money but not spending it was just too frustrating!

Lin Beibei laughed along: “Right, Wealth Flower brother not only leads the list but also spent money. So, Brother Wealth Flower, you want to hear what I sing, it’s yours. Sorry, T Brother, you’re not doing so well today.”
Usually, TTYY was the one bossing her around. Today, seeing TTYY get called out, Lin Beibei couldn’t miss the chance to tease him!
TTYY: “? Who’s not doing well?! This woman... a mere stand-in dares to act so arrogantly and doubt my money power?!”
Favorite Jiujiu: “T Brother, don’t fall for her provocation!”

Lin Beibei sang the song three times in a row with patient, gentle expressions.
After finishing, she didn’t forget customer care, asking kindly: “Brother Wealth Flower, are you satisfied?”
Human Wealth Flower was very satisfied, even forgetting why he had entered the livestream in the first place.

Over at Zhenzhen’s, she was trying hard to rally votes, but despite dancing provocatively for a long time, her viewer count kept dropping.
Everyone had fled over to the other side.
This infuriated Zhenzhen to no end—these dog men were so unreliable! Running off at the sight of a beauty!
Yet in the end, Zhenzhen still won.

Lin Beibei’s room had few big spenders willing to gift. Her loyal fans, aiming to control the stream duration, deliberately withheld gifts, causing her to lose the PK battle.
“Then I’ll do a coquettish eight-time charm attack,” Lin Beibei said, her eyes sparkling. “Let’s charm our top spender today, Brother Wealth Flower.”
Favorite Jiujiu: “Ah! The top spender gets this treatment too!”
Miserable Life Enthusiast: “And it only takes a little to be the top spender. Should we send gifts or not?”
Jia Fugui: “Damn it, she’s doing this on purpose! But I really want to gift, after all, she’s imitating Hua Jiunong…”
Favorite Jiujiu: “I’m tempted too; three Ferris wheels at Hua Jiunong’s place aren’t worth much—the cost-performance ratio is too good!”

TTYY didn’t send gifts, but it was just coquettish eight times...
Yet the next moment, he immediately regretted it.

The woman in the livestream stood up, bent slightly, placed her hands on both cheeks, smiled faintly, and blinked her big eyes. Her gentle voice brushed over like spring breeze:
“Brother Hua, Brother Hua, please~”
“Brother Hua, Brother Hua, I beg you~”
“Brother Hua, Brother Hua, I don’t care anymore~”
“Brother Hua, Brother Hua, you’re the best~”
“Brother Hua, Brother Hua, I’m begging you~”
“Brother Hua, Brother Hua, love you most~”
“Brother Hua, Brother Hua, is that okay~”
“Brother Hua, Brother Hua, I want it~”

Human Wealth Flower was stunned.
Who could resist that?

No matter how many gifts Human Wealth Flower sent, TTYY matched it, doubling the stakes!
Favorite Jiujiu: “Holy crap, holy crap, holy crap! They’re fighting! Two big spenders are battling for the top spot!”
