After bringing Beat Fresh Orange onto the mic, both sides suddenly fell silent.
Nan Que was typing furiously on WeChat.
Nan Que: Manager! There’s a fight in my individual broadcast, will I get reported?
Hall Manager Yanmai: ? Just block them
Nan Que: She gifted me twenty Hua Zi…
Hall Manager Yanmai: Huh???
Hall Manager Yanmai: Let me check
Hall Manager Yanmai: …You’ve really mastered acting first and reporting later. Why did you even engage with her?
Nan Que: (Innocent face) Couldn’t help it
Hall Manager Yanmai: The drama you’ve stirred is too big, I can’t guarantee anything
Hall Manager Yanmai: If it doesn’t affect you, we can treat it as show entertainment
Nan Que: They’re the ones fighting, why am I the one suffering (Sobbing)
Hall Manager Yanmai: (Hehe) Just your lucky day. Eat for now, today’s meal is secured. We’ll deal with tomorrow when it comes
Hall Manager Yanmai: I’ll file a report for you first
Nan Que: (Praying) Thank you, Sister Yanmai
Reporting Group:
Hall Manager Yanmai: @Xue Shan @Promotion Manager Xiao Yue
Hall Manager Yanmai: Reporting potential controversy: X.Nan Que’s individual broadcast PK, the opposing streamer had a fallout with his top fan, now confronting each other in his stream
Promotion Manager Xiao Yue: Are they insane?
Promotion Manager Xiao Yue: Our side isn’t involved, right?
Hall Manager Yanmai: Not currently. Nan Que handled his words well, should avoid backlash. But the opposing streamer is from Yue Yin Lou, aftermath might be messy
Xue Shan: How’s the new streamer’s revenue?
Hall Manager Yanmai: First day of individual broadcast, just received twenty Hua Zi from that fan
Xue Shan: …Fine, let him off this time. We’ll wait and see
Nan Que had no idea that just half a month into the job, he almost got mercilessly fired…
Beat Fresh Orange: “Don’t you have anything to say?”
L. Lan: “I’ve repeated myself many times, made it very clear. Beyond streamer-supporter relationship, we have nothing else.”
Beat Fresh Orange: “I’ve supported you for over 300 days, daily good morning/night messages maintaining our chat streak – was it all fake?”
L. Lan: “Not just you. I maintain this relationship with all my supporting fans.”
Beat Fresh Orange immediately burst into tears.
L. Lan: “Call me scum, accuse me of money-grabbing, I’ll accept it. But I never gave you false hope. I’ve said it before – I’m a streamer, I don’t date supporters.”
Beat Fresh Orange choked through tears: “Bullshit! You said you love every fan! You cared when I was sick, sang for me when I couldn’t sleep during business trips – were all your actions fake?”
L. Lan fell silent. Of course he wasn’t heartless.
Beat Fresh Orange had been his longest-supporting fan, dating back to his newcomer days during scheduling in the hall. He was grateful.
The streaming path wasn’t easy, and he cherished every loyal fan.
So when fans made requests, he wanted to fulfill them – offering empty concerns, occasional small takeout gifts, gentle goodnight streams during live sessions. These were within his capabilities.
But he couldn’t satisfy her further demands.
Beat Fresh Orange: “Speechless now, huh? Still dare deny you’re fishing for romance donations?”
L. Lan: “I’m not!”
Beat Fresh Orange: “I’m not ugly, I have money, I support your work – why won’t you accept me?”
L. Lan remained silent for a long time.
L. Lan: “I’m sorry. I’m gay.”
The chat’s silence was deafening.
[Sweet Bean: ???]
[Delicious Delicious: ???]
【For My Peanuts: ???】
【Wait, for real? Is this a show?】
【I’m kinda scared, my streamer is still young!】
【Anyone remember this is the streamer’s first day broadcasting…】
Seeing the comments, Nan Que silently shed a tear of sympathy for himself.
He genuinely felt his stream was about to get shut down!
Nan Que activated emergency damage control!
Nan Que: “Fresh Orange sis, I think we’ve covered enough for today. Is there anything else you’d like to ask?”
Beat Fresh Orange remained silent, only faint sobbing could be heard through the Mic.
L. Lan: “Fresh Orange sis, I’ve never hidden my sexuality from you. When you asked me to find a partner, I said I couldn’t. When you wanted more genuine affection from me, I said I couldn’t do that either. I can’t promise you because I won’t fall in love with women.”
L. Lan: “If you still feel resentful, my Pao Pao account hasn’t blocked you. You can bring the receipts to me. This is all I can do.”
L. Lan: “Nan Que Laoshi, sorry for disturbing your stream today.”
Nan Que: “Ah… Lan Laoshi, it’s fine. Please take care of yourself.”
L. Lan: “Alright, viewers from my stream, please give Nan Que Laoshi a follow. We’ve taken up so much of his time, show some support before you leave. Nan Que Laoshi is really kind.”
Nan Que thought to himself: I should be thanking you? You came out directly on my stream and now you’re thanking me? What is this? Your final words?
L. Lan: “I’ll disconnect now then. Goodbye, Nan Que Laoshi.”
Nan Que watched as his viewer count jumped from 3k to 5k, then to 10k+, while his followers rapidly surpassed 2k.
Zhang Zhe next door caught wind of what was happening and came to watch using a burner account.
Not satisfied with just that, he directly went to Nan Que’s room to watch the live scene.
Seeing the follower count, he couldn’t help but gasp and gestured excitedly to Nan Que—
Fortune favors the bold, you lucky guy!
Nan Que steadied himself. L. Lan had probably ended his stream, and all the spectators had come to his channel, explaining why he had over 10k viewers.
Today’s drama was just too extreme—even novels couldn’t write something this intense.
First, twenty Hua Zi as foundation gifts, then the streamer confronting the big spender on Mic, ending with the streamer coming out.
It seemed L. Lan would at least be taking a break from streaming. Nan Que couldn’t control the situation well, and the two Halls were likely to clash.
Beat Fresh Orange was still connected on Mic, apparently still emotionally unstable.
After some thought, Nan Que took the initiative to speak: “Fresh Orange sis, are you okay?”
Beat Fresh Orange: “Are all streamers like this? Using genuine feelings as maintenance, treating fans like wallets?”
The chat instantly exploded!
【Locked Heart No More Shipping Or I’ll Die: What the hell?】
【Delicious Delicious: You think throwing a few Hua Zi means you own someone? How drunk are you?】
【Delicious Delicious: Is this your house?】
【Sweet Bean: What nonsense are you talking?】
【Don’t Argue: Kick her out】
【For My Peanuts: Who are you muttering about?】
But with too many spectators, countless trolls flooded the chat with insults toward the streamer.
【Delicious Delicious: Nan Nan, give me mod】
Nan Que promptly set Delicious Delicious and Sweet Bean as moderators, while he continued talking with Beat Fresh Orange.
“Fresh Orange sis, when you spend money, you should receive considerate service within reasonable boundaries.”
“You request songs, the streamer sings. You’re unhappy, the streamer cheers you up. You have troubles, the streamer comforts you and helps solve your problems.”
“It’s like you gifted twenty Hua Zi in my livestream, so you’re still on the mic. You’ve finished confronting Lan Laoshi, and now it’s my turn to serve you.”
“Sis, speaking as an observer honestly, I feel neither of you was in the wrong today. You’re just… a bit unwilling to let go, that’s all.”
Beat Fresh Orange: “…Yes, I am unwilling.”
“Sis, a streamer protecting their top fans is part of their job. If they cross boundaries or scam you for money, run immediately—it’s their fault, and leaving is the right move.”
“But threatening a relationship with gift contributions is wrong.”
“You’ve been in their livestream for three hundred days—did you feel they were genuine and sincere?”
Beat Fresh Orange: “Yes, they were.”
“See, sis? You fell for a good person. It’s just that person had the misfortune of not falling for you back.”
“Look at you—young, great looks, with money to spare. With such great qualities, it’s their loss.”
Beat Fresh Orange fell silent for a long time. “What does a brat like you know about love?”
[Who would’ve thought I’d come here for relationship advice?]
[Hahaha, “a brat”—the streamer just got owned!]
[The streamer’s full of it, you’re all just scamming for money]
[And streamers don’t love money? That’s hilarious. Look how they’ve fooled this lady—your silver tongues really work wonders]
[I love my Lovecast too, and Lovecast really pampers their fans! That kind of mutual devotion is enough—who wants to date their Lovecast anyway?]
[Seriously, we don’t even know if the person behind the Avatar is tall, short, fat, or thin. I’m just here for the laughs.]
