The Villain Mom Awakens — Going Viral by Parenting on a Reality Show Chapter 281: Connecting with Rhys Quinn

"Is that so? Thank you."

Naomi Kenway thanked him, her eyes glued to the order data on the backend. Her smile toward Luke Lowell grew brighter and brighter.

The orders quickly broke thirty thousand. ’It really pays to ride soone else’s coattails,’ she thought.

"Why are you selling waterlons? Isn’t this show about taking care of kids? Have the requirents for childcare risen to include knowing online marketing now?" Luke Lowell asked.

Naomi Kenway was very patient. "This is our task," she replied. "The local waterlons aren’t selling, so our job is to sell as many as we can. I think a task like this is quite aningful."

Luke Lowell nodded thoughtfully. He looked at Naomi Kenway and felt more and more certain that her expression wasn’t an act. She genuinely enjoyed doing charity work.

While Naomi Kenway stared in a daze, Luke Lowell started hawking the waterlons for her. "Waterlons for sale! Fragrant and sweet waterlons! Fifty cents a pound, your money back if it’s not sweet!"

He chuckled. "Sothing like that? I see a lot of street vendors shouting like this. Was my impression any good?"

Watching the number of buyers skyrocket on the backend, Naomi Kenway nodded repeatedly. "Yes, exactly like that."

Luke Lowell took a phone from his assistant. The screen was displaying a screenshot of the waterlons Naomi Kenway was selling. He swiped his finger, showing off several tempting photos of the fruit.

"These photos aren’t edited, they’re the real deal. If you want to order, do it fast. They’ll be sold out soon."

"Look at this—thin rind, plenty of flesh, crisp, sweet, and delicious! Co on everyone, help us out and show so support."

"Where’s the link? I don’t have it. Go to the other stream to buy, look for Naomi Kenway’s livestream room!"

"Eating waterlons from Province X is good for your skin? Where did you hear that? It’s not a health supplent, but it tastes great. If it doesn’t taste good, I’ll wash my hair while doing a handstand!"

...

[Sothing I thought I’d never see in my lifeti! Luke Lowell is actually promoting a product! Doesn’t he usually avoid it because it’s too much trouble?]

[Wash his hair while doing a handstand? Knowing Luke Lowell never breaks his promises, I went and bought one imdiately.]

[They do look tempting. I heard Province X’s waterlons aren’t selling well this year. Our boy Luke is doing a good deed by helping promote them, so let’s all show our support!]

[Luke Lowell isn’t the type to ddle in other people’s business. What’s the real relationship between these two?]

[Friends, I guess. Or colleagues. What other relationship could there be?]

...

Luke Lowell had a huge number of "girlfriend fans," whose ferocity was legendary, but since Naomi Kenway was married with a child, the fans didn’t speculate too much.

Luke Lowell was famously a chatterbox during his usual streams. He was eloquent, and his speech was witty and humorous, making his product endorsents surprisingly effective. In truth, even if he didn’t say a word, a huge crowd of fans would rush to buy. Luke Lowell’s fans had imnse purchasing power; the way his new albums were snatched up and sold out instantly upon release was a testant to his massive popularity.

Thanks to Luke Lowell’s energetic promotion, the newly added stock of ten thousand orders sold out in an instant.

Naomi Kenway was stunned for a mont. "That was so fast. Thanks a lot. I’ll treat you to a al when I have ti."

"It’s nothing. How much stock do you have left? Add another fifty thousand orders."

Naomi Kenway did as he said, telling the staff mber next to her, "Add another fifty thousand orders."

"Isn’t that too many?"

"I trust him."

Luke Lowell gave another sales pitch and promised to take song requests as a bonus once the fifty thousand orders were sold.

A minute later, all fifty thousand orders were sold out.

It wasn’t just Naomi Kenway; the nearby staff were also completely astonished. This level of salesmanship was sothing only the most famous live-stream sellers in the industry could achieve.

Luke Lowell sang a song as promised, and even did a dance when he got into the spirit of it. Suddenly, his expression changed slightly. He said to Naomi Kenway, "My company needs for sothing, so I have to end the stream link-up. But I’m holding you to that dinner invitation! Your whole family has to treat , and I’m specifically calling out your husband. He can’t be as cold as usual. I want a fiery welco."

Naomi Kenway nodded. Luke Lowell had indeed helped her imnsely. "Don’t worry. I’ll treat you as soon as I get back to Veridia. You know I never break a promise."

Luke Lowell smiled and nodded. "Alright, I’m logging off then."

She learned from the staff that her sales figures were now far in the lead. However, Naomi Kenway had no intention of stopping there. Luke Lowell’s call had given her an idea. Over the past while, she had made quite a few good friends in the entertainnt industry, several of whom happened to be live-streaming right then. After sending them private ssages to ask first, Naomi Kenway linked up with two more celebrities. Although the sales weren’t as staggering as they had been with Luke Lowell, the numbers were still very impressive.

Perhaps two heads really were much better than one. The sales speed increased significantly after she started linking up with others.

"Okay, bye-bye," Naomi Kenway said.

Celebrities only have a limited ti to stream. Naomi Kenway made a ntal note of the favor, planning to treat this senior from her company to a al once she got back.

[Nina’s network is so wide! I love Claire Hughes’s acting. I had no idea she was a senior at the sa company as Nina. Inter-Entertainnt really is the top dog in the entertainnt industry!]

[Too bad Luke Lowell logged off. I really like him.]

[Who’s she gonna link with next? I’m excited! Can she link with Connor Jennings? I’ve been a fan of his for years!]

[Link with Todd Hughes!]

[Who’s Todd Hughes? I’ve never heard of him.]

[He’s a newcor in the industry. He was just in a Xianxia drama a while back. Let recomnd him to you all.]

[Link with Rhys Quinn! Rhys Quinn is streaming too! He’s my idol!]

[Rhys Quinn? The Rhys Quinn I’m thinking of? The others might be possible, but Rhys Quinn is impossible. He’s famously arrogant and has never accepted a link-up request from another celebrity. He doesn’t even like to talk much when he streams, just stares at the fan comnts. I heard the only reason he streams regularly is because his company requires it. Otherwise, an otherworldly guy like him wouldn’t even have an account!]

[Just link with Connor Jennings. He’s really easy to talk to!]

There was still an hour until six o’clock. Naomi Kenway continued to look for her next target to link up with. After all, only a few celebrities were streaming at this hour, which made choosing a target rather difficult. Suddenly, her finger paused, and her gaze fixed on the screen.

’Rhys Quinn is live-streaming?’

Naomi Kenway hesitated. She wasn’t very familiar with Rhys Quinn, but he had a massive online following. If she could piggyback off even a little of his traffic, she would surely be able to sell a lot more waterlons.

She tentatively sent a private ssage.

A minute passed with no reply. Naomi Kenway figured it was a roundabout rejection. She didn’t let it discourage her and continued to diligently sell her waterlons in the livestream room.

There was only one product in the livestream room. Many fans, having already made their purchases, stayed to chat. With no new traffic coming in, the sales pace grew slower and slower.

Suddenly, a notification sound went off. DING.

[Rhys Quinn has requested to co-stream with you]

[Accept or Decline]

Naomi Kenway imdiately tapped "Accept."

The background behind Rhys Quinn was just a bare wall, with pitifully few decorations around. It was an extrely minimalist style. He seed to be sitting in a studio, and soone who looked like an assistant handed him a cup of steaming coffee.
