X. Nan Que, your followed streamer is now live.
Two days earlier, Hall Manager Yanmai had notified him that he could start individual broadcasts, but Nan Que wanted to expand his song list first and hadn’t gone live. Today, he finally filled two pages and launched his very first individual broadcast.
As soon as he started streaming, Nan Que played “Little Universe” as background music, swaying his head to the love song while waiting for viewers to trickle in.
After working several shifts, he now had over a thousand fans. 8 PM was peak streaming hours, and after waiting through one song, a few people gradually entered his livestream.
“Good evening, fam! Welcome to Nan Que’s livestream. Today’s theme is…”
His 2D animated avatar mysteriously lowered its voice to read the stream title: “Tell Your Story.”
Nan Que knew his current song list was limited and his fanbase small—taking song requests and singing wouldn’t attract much attention during individual broadcasts. Still in his probation period, he couldn’t easily host mic sessions either. Better to create themed content for each stream so even a handful of viewers could enjoy it.

Nan Que, using a chibi avatar with a voice changer, said cutely, “Stop talking nonsense, I’m still young!”
【Don’t Argue gifted Nan Que a Rose Bouquet (299 coins)】
【Sweet Bean: Oh~ Don’t Argue gege switched from boxing gloves to roses, falling for the streamer?】
【Don’t Argue: …Roses are cheaper】
【I believe it】
【I believe it too】
【Don’t Argue: .】
Nan Que was thoroughly amused.
“Haha, is Don’t Argue a guy? Everyone, stop teasing him. Anyone joining my stream, whether boys or girls, are my dear babies.”
“Yes, this Little Electric Man was made by the company based on my chibi character design. Pretty decent, right? Hehe.”
【Don’t Argue: Acceptable】

【Delicious Delicious joined the fan group】
【Sweet Bean joined the fan group】

【Locked Heart No More Shipping Or I’ll Die: Streamer, hurry and make a fan group, give us a fandom name!】
【Sweet Bean: Yeah yeah, otherwise we have no presence when we go out】
“Alright, I’ll create the group now. Any suggestions for the fandom name?”
While setting up the group, Nan Que kept chatting, his Little Electric Man’s pink ears twitching adorably.
【Sweet Bean: Call us ‘Babies’ (lewd), baby you’re too cute】
【Not for the streamer, Sweet Bean! We’re naming ourselves, not him】
【Sweet Bean: (embarrassed) Got mesmerized】
【HAHAHA, big simp】
【Locked Heart No More Shipping Or I’ll Die: Cotton Candy】
【Delicious Delicious: Cotton Candy works, just like this little animated character】
【Don’t Argue: .】
【LMAO, big bro can’t handle it】
【Don’t Argue: Whatever】
“Cotton Candy? Then from now on, you’ll all be my Cotton Candies~ Our little nest will be the Candy Factory.”
“Alright~ Cotton Candy babies, please join the group~”
【Don’t Argue: First!】
【Sweet Bean: Hahaha, second!】
【Delicious Delicious: Tsk! Don’t Argue gege says he dislikes it, but his hands were quick to grab the spot】
【Don’t Argue gifted Nan Que Rose Bush (666 coins)】
【Sweet Bean: @SealedHeartNoMoreObsessingOrIllDie Come join the group, sis】
【SealedHeartNoMoreObsessingOrIllDie: I’m genuinely scared now, Nan Nan doesn’t do partnerships, right? (crying)】
Nan Que’s eyes widened instantly.
“SealedHeart jiejie has a story to tell!”
“Dang dang dang dang~ Remember today’s theme? Share your story hahaha~ Would you like to be my first guest?”
【SealedHeartNoMoreObsessingOrIllDie: ? Host, are you using me for your show? I’m going to throw a tantrum】
“Hehe, today is Warmhearted Nan Que’s special session. You can share other stories too, let’s give you some guidance.”
“Having fun online doesn’t count~ We just need to be happy~”
【Sweet Bean: Hahaha, Nan Nan is being a bit mischievous】
【Don’t Argue gifted Nan Que Rose Bush (666 coins)】
【Delicious Delicious: I know about this – in Voice Halls, if you want traffic, it’s all about partnership matters】
【SealedHeartNoMoreObsessingOrIllDie: Yeah, our feelings are worthless, just methods to get votes】
【SealedHeartNoMoreObsessingOrIllDie: Thinking about it makes me frustrated (sobbing) All the CPs I shipped have bad endings!】
Nan Que sympathetically tapped the wooden fish for SealedHeart.
“Oh dear, that’s so unfortunate… But SealedHeart jiejie, when love fails, career must succeed. I calculate you’ve been having good financial luck recently~”
【SealedHeartNoMoreObsessingOrIllDie: Good baby! I love hearing that!】
【Don’t Argue gifted Nan Que Rose Bush (666 coins)】
【Delicious Delicious: LMAO, SealedHeart got cheered up by Nan Nan’s sweet talk. Don’t Argue gege sending roses – what, did he cheer you up too?】
【Don’t Argue: You chat among yourselves, don’t bother me】
【Hahaha, Don’t Argue gege truly lives up to his name】
【Sweet Bean: Nan Nan is really quite adorable. That day during the assessment, he came out with that milk-cannon rap – weird but nice to listen to】
【Don’t Argue: Indeed】
“Ah, don’t bring that up, it’s so embarrassing…”
“I had genuinely just learned it, never expected the assessment teacher to notice. I’ve cringed enough to last a lifetime!”
“But I’ve improved recently. I’ve learned many songs for Scheduling. Would you like to hear some?”
【Don’t Argue: Want to hear restart again】
“Don’t Argue gege, you’re really my nemesis…”
【Don’t Argue gifted Nan Que Rose Bush (666 coins)】
“Hahaha, thank you for all the roses, Don’t Argue gege~ You’re being too polite. We’re such good friends, I’ll sing whatever you request!”
Nan Que smiled while creating show effects, then started the accompaniment.
He naturally wasn’t afraid to sing the assessment song again. Most of his new fans came from the assessment day and recent Scheduling shifts – he had long since practiced it to perfection.
It was the same milk-cannon voice, but clearly much more stable than during the assessment.
After the song ended, Don’t Argue sent several more carts of Rose Bushes, making the other sisters in the public chat exclaim with envy.
【Gege, if you send any more, you’ll really fill Nan Nan up】
【Look how you’re feeding him, he’s all squinty-eyed with smiles】
【Sweet Bean: Too pampering】
【Delicious Delicious: Too pampering】
【SealedHeartNoMoreObsessingOrIllDie: Too pampering】
【Too pampering xN】
【Don’t Argue: .】
【Don’t Argue: Let’s go out and play, attract some more fans. The current Cotton Candy is too sticky】
“Hahahaha, alright alright, stop teasing the big bro. If you really annoy him into leaving, I’ll actually cry!”
【Delicious Delicious gifted Nan Que a Hot Air Balloon (520 coins)】
【Sweet Bean gifted Nan Que a Glow Stick (99 coins)】
【Delicious Delicious: Sis has money, let’s march out and conquer】
“Okay, let’s do some random matching then. Though new VTubers probably aren’t great at this, let’s see how our luck holds today~”
Nan Que clicked matchmaking. After five seconds, a dark room appeared on the other side.
“Hello teacher, I’m Nan Que from Siji Xianyin~” Nan Que greeted politely.
The other party didn’t even speak before directly disconnecting.
Nan Que: (⊙o⊙)…
“Alright, seems the teacher on the other side had something come up. Let’s try the next one~”
This time it was a girl with full lighting setup, made up very seductively, but the moment she spoke, she had a strong rustic accent.
“Hello there, teacher~”
“Oh my~ This is a cartoon! We actually ran into a paper doll character hahaha. Sorry, don’t know how to play with cartoons, I’m outta here.”
Before Nan Que could respond, the other party decisively ended the call.
【Daily life of a VTuber: getting called a cartoon during random matching】
【Daily life of a VTuber: getting disconnected during random matching, ultimately achieving eight consecutive wins】
【Delicious Delicious: Hahaha, don’t be sad Nan Nan, the outside world can be complicated】
【Locked Heart No More Shipping Or I’ll Die: So brutal, this reminds me of my favorite streamer’s early days (crying)】
“Seems we’re off to a bad start today. No problem, let’s regroup. One last try – if people don’t want to play with us, I’ll level up before coming out again~ I’ll keep singing for you all, okay?”
“Alright, let me wash my hands! Heaven spirits, earth spirits, send us a good friend, will you? Will you? Let’s~~~go!”
The live stream screen split in two – Nan Que’s chibi pink-haired avatar on one side, and beside it stood an adult version in exquisite school uniform… from a cartoon.
【Locked Heart No More Shipping Or I’ll Die: Hahahaha, I’m dying of laughter. The ultimate destination of random matching really is cartoons】
【Delicious Delicious: This is absolutely hilarious hahaha. The funniest part is, Nan Nan look at the other person’s name】
