99: Chapter 99 Zhu Zhuyin is about to make a surprise appearance.
Xiao Wenyu said coquettishly upon hearing this.
"Where do you hear that? I'm just speaking the truth. Sister Xiao Zhu, I really don't want to struggle anymore. Please, just fulfill my wish! Besides, with a cute and dorky Little Loli like me accompanying you, you should be secretly happy."
Zhu Zhuyin was almost amused by her Best Friend's words and immediately teased back.
"Alright, alright, being flirtatious with me is useless, and you've got the wrong person anyway. I'm a decent person; I'm not into that."
"Who wants to be into that with you!" Xiao Wenyu couldn't help but retort.
"I'm just talking about shopping and eating with you, not sleeping with you. I'm actually worried you might have ulterior motives toward me at night."
Seeing this, Zhu Zhuyin shook her head with a smile, checked the time, and continued.
"Alright, Little Fish, enough talk. I need to hurry and reply to those two rich patrons, or they might think I'm being rude."
"Two rich patrons?" Xiao Wenyu asked, curious after hearing this.
"Didn't you say that Haoran guy wanted to meet up and play with you offline just because he sent a Dream Castle? What's this? Have you changed your mind and plan to have the best of both worlds?"
Zhu Zhuyin looked at her Best Friend on the video call and said through gritted teeth.
"You girl, can you even talk properly? What do you mean 'play with me'?"
"Did I say 'play with you'?" Xiao Wenyu feigned ignorance.
"You must have misheard. Besides, how could a high-principled Little Loli like me say something so vulgar?"
"Hmph, I can't be bothered to argue with you. Do you have anything else? If not, I'm hanging up," Zhu Zhuyin said irritably.
"Wait, don't hang up!" Xiao Wenyu hurriedly asked.
"You still haven't answered me about the two rich patrons. Are you really planning to have the best of both worlds?"
"Best of both worlds, my foot." Zhu Zhuyin blurted out without thinking.
Xiao Wenyu feigned an innocent look upon hearing this.
"Fine, fine, eat my sister, happy now? Can you tell me now?"
Zhu Zhuyin was truly defeated by her Best Friend and glared at her with dissatisfaction.
"My focus is definitely on Brother Yun Fan. You know about that Haoran guy; if he hadn't been provoked today and felt like he lost face, he would never have gifted a Carnival."
She paused for a moment before continuing.
"Besides, after what happened today, he probably won't have the nerve to come back. But since he did drop 180,000, sending a thank-you message is the right thing to do."
Xiao Wenyu nodded in understanding, then gave a playful smile.
"Aren't you worried that Haoran might ask you to refund his share of the tips?"
"Refund? Like hell I will. I was generous enough to refund him last time. Besides, I didn't ask for those tips. It's a willing buyer and a willing seller; we're all adults, and we have to take responsibility for our own actions," Zhu Zhuyin said matter-of-factly.
Xiao Wenyu was stunned after hearing this.
"Sister Xiao Zhu is right, that's exactly how it should be. This is how we make a living. If we refunded everyone, we might as well just go get a regular job instead of streaming."
Zhu Zhuyin couldn't be bothered to continue this topic and asked curiously.
"Hey, Little Fish, I noticed you haven't posted any new cosplay characters on TikTok lately. Are you not sure who to play next?"
"No, I just commissioned an Erii cos outfit. The shop said it would take over a month to finish. It's so expensive! It cost me 8,000 yuan!" Xiao Wenyu said, showing a pained expression.
"Why is it so expensive? You weren't scammed, were you? The most expensive cosplay outfit I've ever commissioned was only a little over 6,000."
"No, I specifically wanted the expensive one. The merchant said they have 2,000 to 3,000 ones, and better ones for 4,000 to 5,000. I wanted a high-end private custom version. The fabric and the wig have to be the best; it's basically a 1-to-1 recreation."
"You're rich!" Zhu Zhuyin couldn't help but exclaim.
"Little Fish, you really don't hesitate to spend money. The Erii cosplay outfit isn't even that complicated, and you actually spent that much."
Xiao Wenyu rolled her eyes at her Best Friend.
"Rich, my ass! I'm so broke right now I can barely afford to eat dirt, okay? You have no idea how long it's been since I bought a new cosplay outfit. The videos I've posted lately were all filmed by swapping clothes with my sisters."
She added.
"I only spent the money because I really love this character. Since you earned so much in tips this time, you have to lend some to your dearest Best Friend in a time of need!"
"Got it. You really are something, spending so lavishly when you have no money."
"It's just a habit, isn't it?" Xiao Wenyu said, feeling a bit embarrassed.
"You!" Zhu Zhuyin shook her head with a smile.
"Alright, I won't talk anymore. Hanging up now. I'll transfer the money to you later; I still need to send a thank-you note to my patron."
"Go ahead and hang up then."
Suddenly remembering something, Xiao Wenyu quickly added.
"Sister Xiao Zhu, if you can't handle your Brother Yun Fan alone, remember to call me! We'll team up to deal with him."
Zhu Zhuyin didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Got it, hanging up."
She then opened Haoran's WeChat, edited a thank-you message, sent it, and didn't give it another thought. After all, this person had basically lost his value.
Once everything was settled, she looked at Brother Yun Fan's WeChat, wondering how to send this message. After all, he had gifted her nearly 300,000 huaxia coin in just two days.
She admitted that after Brother Yun Fan's incredibly generous tipping over the past two days, her mindset had clearly changed. She was no longer that small streamer who only went live to earn some pocket money.
Judging by the current situation, Brother Yun Fan's account was exactly level 47, which meant he hadn't gifted anyone else yet, so she had to seize this opportunity.
Zhu Zhuyin pondered for a while and decided to send a greeting first.
"Zhu Zhuyin: Brother Yun Fan, are you asleep?"
After sending it, she waited for a few dozen seconds. Buzz! Buzz!
"Brother Yun Fan: [Confused]"
"Zhu Zhuyin: Thank you for the gifts, Brother Yun Fan. Little Bamboo really doesn't know how to thank you."
"Brother Yun Fan: If you don't know, why are you sending a message?"
Looking at the reply, Zhu Zhuyin was instantly speechless. She gritted her teeth; she should just get straight to the point!
"Zhu Zhuyin: Little Bamboo wants to go out for a few days recently and try some food from other cities. Brother Yun Fan, do you have any good suggestions?"
This hint was obvious enough, right? Brother Yun Fan should be able to understand, right?
Looking at this message, Li Luo naturally understood the implication. After all, when it comes to traveling and eating, women know far more than you do; there's no need for your suggestions.
But he wouldn't say it explicitly.
"Brother Yun Fan: Depends on what you want to eat and what you want to do?"
"Zhu Zhuyin: Little Bamboo wants to ask which city Brother Yun Fan is in. I want to go visit."
"Brother Yun Fan: You want to come here to hang out?"
"Zhu Zhuyin: Yes, but I'm unfamiliar with the place there. I don't know if Brother Yun Fan would be willing to be my tour guide."
"Brother Yun Fan: No problem. I see your IP address is in Jiu City, right?"
