What’s the most miserable thing in the world?
It’s having to spend more money on a high-spec model before you’ve even finished paying off the loan for your current assistant robot.
These smart products were truly expensive. Jiang Qiuqiu had been busy with PKs lately, so her earnings were tied up, and she hadn’t been updating her food display much. The money in her account was just barely enough to buy a high-end butler robot.
But having a completely empty account felt uncomfortably exposed, so Jiang Qiuqiu opted for a loan instead.
After she made the paynt, the shop quickly sent her a VIP customization form, allowing Qiuqiu to choose a custom model.
By the ti she finished the whole process, it was almost five o’clock.
After briefly planning out her ingredients, Jiang Qiuqiu logged in to check her food display. The mini cakes she had put up that morning were sold out within a second of being released.
Most of the comnts under the display were from people lanting they hadn’t been fast enough, but even so, few people accused Jiang Qiuqiu of making too little.
She was already amazing for finding ti to make food for everyone while in the middle of a PK.
She logged into the community forums. The buzz about her and Chen Yu from the morning had only intensified, with more and more people discussing it. So even proposed a conspiracy theory that the two were staging a joint publicity stunt, but that idea was quickly shot down.
A publicity stunt?
An elimination is a real elimination. Would you really let a strear with 3.7 billion fans stage a stunt with one who has 700 million? You’d have to have water on the brain, and so much you couldn’t even drain it all.
So, soone suggested that maybe the two knew each other and were in a close relationship. Otherwise, they couldn’t figure out why Chen Yu would play the supporting role for Jiang Qiuqiu.
This explanation gained a lot of traction. Of course, only love could make a top strear humble himself to prop up a smaller one like that.
It was both logical and incredibly romantic. Imdiately, a random user wrote so fanfic in the forums: The devastatingly handso, universally adored strear from the Beauty Zone and the unassuming number one from the quiet corner of the Food Zone. The two had planned to enter the top ten together, but little did they know they would face each other in the second round—
How could the tough guy bear to see his sweet girlfriend eliminated? With tears in his eyes, he could only sacrifice himself to send her through to the next round.
It was simply moving enough to touch the heavens.
Many onlookers actually found it quite cute. As the situation continued to escalate, Chen Yu’s side finally issued a statent.
The verified celebrity Chen Yu personally entered the fray: You guys really don’t know . Not even a girlfriend could make compromise. The only thing that can make admit defeat is true skill. @Jiang Jiujiu Her food is beyond compare.
Seeing the @ntion on her hopage, Jiang Qiuqiu posted a reply.
Jiang Jiujiu: @Chen Yu: ...//A kindred spirit is hard to find. I’ll have to treat Mr. Chen Yu to a big al next ti we et.
The mont she sent her ssage, he replied almost instantly.
Chen Yu: Really? Can I choose what we eat? @Jiang Jiujiu
Further discussion wasn’t really appropriate in public, so after adding each other as friends, Chen Yu sent Jiang Qiuqiu a private ssage.
Chen Yu: Master Jiang, were you serious about that? Or were you just being polite?
Jiang Jiujiu: I was serious.
Chen Yu: Is there a ti and place?
Away from the live stream, his tone of voice seed to have changed quite a bit.
Jiang Jiujiu: I’m a little busy lately. How about after the annual PK?
They could et up then anyway.
Chen Yu: O. Okay. Can I choose the dishes then!?
Jiang Jiujiu: Of course.
Chen Yu: Thanks! Then it’s settled. By the way, what are you planning to make tonight?
Chen Yu: You don’t have to say if it’s inconvenient.
Only after asking did he rember that PK dishes were semi-confidential.
Jiang Jiujiu: It’s no problem. I’m planning to make pork knuckle.
Chen Yu: !!!
He quickly sent an image and asked: Is it this kind, the braised Gugu Beast knuckle you made before?
’He actually went back and watched my old stream recordings?’
A strange feeling surfaced within her, but it wasn’t a bad one.
Jiang Jiujiu: Yes, that’s the one.
When she had chatted with her fan group before, there were a lot of requests for the braised pork knuckle. Everyone hoped it would make a coback on her food display, but the cooking process was a bit complicated.
Now that the PK was here, she planned to bring this dish out and let everyone savor it again.
Chen Yu: I’m looking forward to your PK tonight.
Jiang Jiujiu: Thank you.
There was no suspense in tonight’s PK. Jiang Qiuqiu was matched with an artisan strear who had about 1.5 billion fans. She was already a hot topic, and with the support from Chen Yu’s fans, the number of votes tonight was even higher than before, reaching a total of 2 billion.
Her overall rank shot up to the middle of the 30th tier, which was the highest position she had ever reached since the Food Zone PKs began.
But tonight, the focus of the hot discussion in the Food Zone was not Jiang Qiuqiu.
