Even though the faint fragrance from the young girl beside him made his face redden slightly.
"It’s almost your turn. How are you feeling now?" Yin Yin continued, asking in an easy-going manner.
"Nervous, excited, thrilled..." Zhao Fan replied.
"Do you have anything to say about the Heart of Dream Experience Hall, jointly established by Pingyun and Heart of Myriad Spirits?"
"I just want to thank Pingyun Group and Heart of Myriad Spirits for giving this opportunity..."
The younger brother behind him finally couldn’t stand it. "Dude, stop with the thank yous! It’s your turn..."
Zhao Fan shot the guy a glare, then looked expectantly at Yin Yin, who had also fallen silent.
"Goddess Yin Yin, may I take a photo with you?"
"Of course! And perfect timing, I’m about to go inside the Experience Hall to live stream. Let’s go together."
At these words, while the younger brother behind him looked a bit resentful, Zhao Fan, his eyes shining with pleasant surprise, walked over to the counter.
The Experience Hall was quite spacious, decorated in a chanical, sci-fi style. To one side were public rest areas with various snacks and refreshnts.
As the two of them approached the counter, a voice called out, "Please wait a mont. You can begin your experience after the current participants have left. Also, miss, you cannot enter ahead of others without queuing. Of course, if you’re just here to rest for a while, that’s perfectly fine. We offer complintary tea and beverages."
Zhao Fan looked behind the counter and saw three figures there.
Two young won with professional smiles stood there, issuing the reminder; he recognized them as the ones he had seen from afar. The third was a young man sitting further inside, playing on his phone. Being seated behind the counter, he was indeed hard to spot from a distance.
Hearing soone approach, the young man glanced up. When he saw Goddess Yin Yin beside Zhao Fan, his eyes widened in astonishnt. "Yin Yin?"
The goddess looked at the man before her, montarily stunned. She opened her mouth. "Li Shu? What are you doing here? Weren’t you..."
What Li Shu "wasn’t," Zhao Fan had no idea. But judging by the look of things, this guy seed to know the goddess? Zhao Fan eyed him warily.
Li Shu, however, didn’t seem to mind Zhao Fan’s scrutiny. "They were a bit short-staffed for the opening, so I ca to help out. Yin’s school belle, long ti no see! You seem to be doing well since graduation."
So they were classmates? Zhao Fan realized.
"I’ve been well, haha." Yin Yin chuckled. "I heard from other classmates that you passed the Breeder examination. Congratulations, that’s remarkable! I might have to rely on you for help in the future."
"Oh, not at all. My skills are pretty basic; it’s just that Bro Ping sees sothing in ."
"Haha, since when were you so modest?"
This guy was actually a Breeder? Zhao Fan felt a pang of envy mixed with a sense of inferiority. He knew that online, among the keyboard warriors, Breeders—whether Low-level or Interdiate Level—were often dismissed as insignificant or even called Vampires. Yet, possessing such a status and certificate signified entry into a completely different world. Especially since this guy was so young. Truly, the world of a goddess was beyond his reach... But then again, who was this Bro Ping that Li Shu kept ntioning every other sentence?
Zhao Fan didn’t get a chance to find out. Just then, a spot opened up. The receptionist handed Zhao Fan a sensor, and he was led by another staff mber into the designated experience room.
Watching Zhao Fan’s retreating figure, Li Shu finally smiled and remarked, "Well, well, Yin’s school belle has so many fans now. Looks like you’re on your way to becoming a big star..."
"I’m just a minor internet celebrity; I wouldn’t call myself a big star. Besides," Yin Yin gestured with the cara in her hand, "I’m live streaming right now. If you say that, my viewers will probably laugh themselves silly." She was, however, very careful; aside from Zhao Fan earlier, Li Shu was kept out of the cara’s view the entire ti. Yin Yin was very discreet about certain things.
Because of this, many bullet comnts in the live stream started responding to the new voice that had appeared off-cara:
"Yin Yin is the biggest star!"
"Oh no, has our Yin Yin been tricked? Didn’t she just graduate? How can her classmate already be a Breeder? That’s got to be nonsense, right?"
"Even if he is, he’s probably just a Low-level Breeder. Nothing to get cocky about."
Li Shu, however, hadn’t given it that much thought. "How is that not being a big star? Every ti I watch your live stream, you have over a million concurrent viewers. Even so actual celebrities don’t get that many when they stream."
A smile played on Yin Yin’s lips. "You actually have ti to watch my live streams?"
"Of course! I even learned so monster-grinding techniques in Heart of Dreams from your streams. I’m telling you, even Bro Ping has to admit you’re better in that departnt."
Yin Yin’s eyes lit up. "He plays too?"
Li Shu glanced at the cara and nodded with a smile, but he didn’t elaborate further on the topic. "So, you’re here today doing an outdoor live stream of our place? You should co by and hang out more often when you have ti."
"Haha, with you saying that, I can relax. As long as I don’t get kicked out, I’ll be fine."
"Don’t worry," Li Shu said, patting his chest reassuringly. "I can’t speak for other places, but here and within Heart of Myriad Spirits, as long as you don’t try to enter soone’s private room or Bro Ping’s lab, you can go wherever you please. You haven’t been before, have you? You should check out Heart of Phoenix; it’s truly spectacular."
"Really?"
Clearly, while Yin Yin was enjoying her chat with Li Shu, so viewers in the live stream were getting impatient:
"Yin Yin, stop chatting! It’s rare for you to do an outdoor stream. Hurry up and show us what this Heart of Dream Experience Hall looks like! I’m already planning a trip to Linzhou just to visit this place..."
