Today, Disney Princess’s outfit looked somewhat similar to Yun Long’s—both were princess dresses, except hers was a simple black style, and her makeup had that cold, aloof look, quite striking.
“Hey, Xiaolongbao. Big sis set up a session today with two fun girls I get along with. Want to come play?”
Seeing that Disney Princess was in a good mood today, Yun Long guessed she’d sorted out whatever happened yesterday.
“Sure! I barely know any other streamers, so it’d be great if you’re willing to bring me along.”
Hearing that Disney Princess was going to introduce her to new streamers, Yun Long’s impression of her improved even more.
She’d been streaming for a short time and didn’t know many streamers. Her daily streams were quite long—she couldn’t just keep singing the whole time.
Random PK battles were convenient, but you never knew who you’d be matched with.
“OK, I’ll pull them in then.”
With that, Disney Princess added the two people to the call.
Yun Long looked at the screen: one was a flashy, cool-looking Sister Clan girl in a trendy-girl outfit, and the other was “Brother Wang Xianling,” which left her a bit confused.
She remembered Princess saying it would be two girls.
The confusion on Yun Long’s face was obvious, and Disney Princess knew exactly what was going on the moment she saw it, bursting out laughing.
“Xianling, hurry up and introduce yourself. Judging by her expression, Xiaolongbao thinks you’re a boy.”
“Really? Hello, Xiaolongbao! I’m Wang Xianling.”
Hearing Brother Wang’s magnetic, alluring female voice, Yun Long froze. She really was a girl, and with such a beautiful voice too. Yun Long couldn’t help murmuring softly, “So pretty.”
“Thanks for the compliment.”
Brother Wang’s gaze toward Yun Long grew even gentler.
“Sister Clan, you should get to know Xiaolongbao too.”
Seeing that Yun Long and Brother Wang were getting along well, Disney Princess brought the cool Sister Clan girl into the conversation too.
Unexpectedly, Sister Clan kept a cold face and directly questioned Yun Long: “Is the Captain in your livestream?”
Looking at Sister Clan’s hostile demeanor, Yun Long thought—she didn’t even know her, so the one who must have caused trouble could only be the Captain.
“Captain, are you there? Someone’s looking for you.”
Yun Long called out to the Captain directly in her livestream. This wasn’t her mess, and she wasn’t taking the blame for it.
[Captain: I’m here. What’s up?]
“The Captain’s here. Go ahead and say what you need to say.”
Yun Long was still quite polite to Sister Clan—after all, she was introduced by Princess, so she deserved some face.
“Good that you’re here. My Pirate bro heard you’re back and wants to battle you for the overall rankings. Captain, do you dare accept?”
Sister Clan’s tone was rather arrogant.
[Accepted.]
The Captain hadn’t expected that the moment he took off his shirt, Pirate would come sniffing around.
“We accept. Tell us the rules.”
Yun Long’s tone was a little excited. She loved scenes like this—where the big spenders fought each other without her having to drum up votes herself.
Right now she absolutely adored the Captain and the Pirate bro on the other side. Wonderful—no need to worry about stream duration today, and no vote-soliciting either. What a treat.
Sister Clan was about to speak when Disney Princess cut her off. “Since I’m the one who set this up, I’ll decide the rules. We pair up two-on-two and battle for the overall rankings. The losers sing a song. What do you all think?”
As she spoke, Disney Princess shot Sister Clan a glare.
Sister Clan knew she was in the wrong and smiled awkwardly. “Whatever Princess says. We’ll all go with what Princess says.”
Yun Long and Brother Wang had no objections.
“Alright, since no one has any objections, let’s begin. Everyone mute your mics and go rally votes.”
With that, Disney Princess hit the start button, muted her mic, and went off to rally votes with exceptional enthusiasm.
Yun Long showed not the slightest awareness that she was in a PK battle, softly humming an unnamed little tune, relaxed and carefree.
“Babies, I’ll sing you a song from ‘Under the Hawthorn Tree.’ Just toss a few fan badges my way and leave the rest to Captain big brother. Captain big brother will definitely handle it, right, Captain?”
In this kind of showdown between big spenders, Yun Long didn’t want to fleece her fans. A true big brother settles his own affairs himself.
[Yes, just sing. No need to rally votes.]
Captain shook his head helplessly. This Xiaolongbao, really—other streamers at least put on an act, but she was just so blunt and direct. Treating him like this, she wasn’t afraid he’d run off?
But even as he thought this, his hands never stopped, sending fifty Dragon-Slaying Rangers in a row (30,000 diamonds).
The Dragon-Slaying Ranger effect came with vibration and the roar of a dragon. He refused to admit he was being mischievous, hoping to keep the streamer from finishing her song.
“Under the Hawthorn Tree—”
Yun Long had barely started when she heard constant buzzing and the roar of dragons. Startled, she looked around but found nothing.
Listening closely, she realized the sound was coming from her phone—it was the gifts Captain had sent.
“Thank you, Captain big brother, for the gifts. They’re really beautiful.”
Hearing Yun Long’s voice thanking him through gritted teeth, the corners of Captain’s lips curled up, and he felt thoroughly pleased inside.
Sure enough, doing bad things is when people are happiest.
After thanking him for the gifts, Yun Long tried to sing again. “Un—bzzz—der—bzzz—the—bzzz—Haw—bzzz—”
The dragon’s vibrations made it impossible for Yun Long to finish the song. Suddenly she leaned close to the screen, her cheeks puffing up in anger. “Captain, having fun?”
Captain hadn’t expected Yun Long to suddenly lean in so close to the screen. Seeing her so near, being watched so earnestly by her heterochromatic eyes—eyes that reflected only him—he felt his health bar drain to zero in an instant.
