Chapter 23

During the livestream, Merlin managed to maintain her composure, wearing her deceptive princess-like expression as she casually introduced today’s dishes.

But after the livestream, the young miss exploded.

Food was knocked off the table onto the floor as she sat in her exquisite leather chair, looking haughty. “Butler, did you see that? Just now, I wasn’t in first place.”

As the eldest daughter of the Dais family, Merlin often boasted of being the number one socialite.

Number one!

In the socialite circle, it was tolerable not to be recognized, but now, even in this livestreaming area, she wasn’t number one?

Even worse, this lousy live broadcast software will pop up a notification when someone surpassed her in popularity…

“Miss Merlin, this is just an accident,” the butler frowned, growing annoyed with this Jiang Qiuqiu, whom he had never met before.

Who was she to disrupt the livestream schedule like this? Everything was prepared, and yet she had to intervene and make the young miss explode again.

“An accident?” Merlin snorted. “You called the previous incident an accident, and now you’re saying this livestream is also an accident.”

“The path I’ve set as the number one socialite livestreamer will not encounter any accidents.”

“I don’t care what you do, but I don’t want to see her name on the Federal Star Network again in the future.”

With a casual remark, the young miss determined the fate of the lower ants.

The butler didn’t bother to advise otherwise. Cutting off once and for all was indeed a permanent solution, ensuring that he wouldn’t have to deal with such unplanned troubles again.

Amidst the conspiracies, Jiang Qiuqiu was happily rolling around in her bed.

Ah! Today would be another day where she was about to become the top food livestreamer! She was so strong!

The next day…

Because she was going to cook braised pork today, Jiang Qiuqiu ordered a lot of gugu meat and rice.

Rice was still so expensive, but Jiang Qiuqiu had withdrawn some money from her livestreaming account, so! She was now half rich, and buying rice wouldn’t hurt too much.

Humming a tune, she busied herself in the kitchen, using the remaining rice and gugu meat to make herself a portion of cheung fun!

After steaming it with water, she poured on some special sauce. The fragrance of rice and the aroma of meat sauce blended perfectly together. Jiang Qiuqiu took a sniff, her eyes brightening. This was it!

Before digging in, she used her sensor to replicate this dish and privately sent it to Terry.

With a note: “Thank you for supporting me in the livestream. You’re my first fan.”

At the same time, the Federal Star Livestreaming Editing Department was entering its busy period of the day.

Time to start work; everyone slowly made their way from home to the office.

Some were yawning, some were chatting, some were searching for scattered good talents online, while Mingmei had already brought the data into the supervisor’s office.

Editors at the Federal Livestream Editing Department had the privilege to make certain changes to contracts when signing anchors. This privilege was generally used for signing up-and-coming new star livestreamers or top livestreamers poached from other platforms.

Big editors had big powers, small editors had small powers, and Mingmei was also a small editor. So even for such a small matter as changing Jiang Qiuqiu’s first-year revenue split, she had to consult the supervisor.

The supervisor was busy, casually scanning through the contract handed over by Mingmei and asked, “You only have one trial privilege opportunity per year. Have you chosen someone?”

“Chosen.”

“Okay, I hope you’ll get outstanding results in the annual editor assessment.”

“Thank you, Supervisor. I will!” Mingmei was confident this time.

She believed that Jiang Qiuqiu would surely shine!
