Volume 1 Chapter 23: I Teach My Enemy How to Win Me Over
Hearing the little vampire girl’s long analysis on the screen, Gao Liang was stunned for a moment.
Huh, strange. Why does this match that little bit of bad taste deep in his heart?
Hmm…
Without realizing it, he nodded and looked at the little vampire girl dancing and gesturing excitedly.
Ari-chan, you really get it.
“Right? Just imagine it. A kid who’s usually gloomy and expressionless—if we tease her just a little, she’ll immediately look wronged and show a cute, pitiful side in front of us~ That contrast, hehe~”
Lin Lin couldn’t help but smile happily. Still, she gave a serious reminder to the viewers:
“Of course, don’t go too far. If you overdo it, it’s not teasing anymore. You have to know your limits, and you can’t bother her every day. What I mean by ‘bullying’ is more like playful teasing between a couple. It’s a kind of game!”
【Positive-energy streamer, followed!】
【True, looks matter too. If someone ugly kept bothering me every day, I’d want to stab them.】
【Hey, wake up. What girl would ever bother a guy like you?】
【Well, if they’re good-looking, being teased once in a while might actually feel nice?】
Ahem…
Watching the chat scroll by, Lin Lin suddenly felt something was off.
The way she had just analyzed everything so confidently…
It kind of also applied to herself.
What if Gao Liang teased her?
What would she do…?
Would she get completely wrapped around his finger too?
Th-this…
What kind of weird thoughts am I having?! This is wrong, wrong, wrong!
There’s a problem with this theory. Someone like her, how could she ever be teased into liking him?! No way! No matter how handsome Gao Liang is, it’s impossible!
Hmm…
So what condition is missing?
Uh…
Lin Lin thought for a moment. Then she suddenly realized the key point!
Right! The chat actually had a point. But the real issue isn’t just looks. It’s the level of affection the person being teased already has for Dog Bro.
Of course, good looks often raise affection, but the two aren’t completely tied together.
“The key is affection! If there’s no affection and you go bother someone, they’ll definitely hate it. But in Dog Bro’s case, his desk mate already likes him. Teasing her a bit and increasing interaction will make that affection skyrocket!”
Lin Lin patted her chest confidently. As for someone like herself, who hated Gao Liang with all her heart, there was absolutely no chance she’d ever like him.
Heh~
After this round of analysis, she not only helped him solve his problem, but also found a way out for herself. She felt very satisfied, even a little proud.
However, after hearing all this, Gao Liang was still unsure…
Little vampire girl, how can you be so sure that Lin Lin likes me?
What if… that girl really does hate him?
Uh…
【Watching VTubers Makes Me a Dog: I don’t think she has very high affection for me…】
“Hm?” Seeing Dog Bro’s message, which looked very unsure, Lin Lin smacked her lips.
Ahem. Even though she was the type who was much better at talking than actually doing things, she still felt she had to give Dog Bro some guidance!
The signs were already so obvious, how could he misread them?
Besides, she herself had already become a girl now!
Hmm…
More or less, she felt she understood a bit about how girls think.
No problem. Very stable. She felt her analysis was pretty solid!
“Dog Bro, you need to be more confident!” Lin Lin encouraged him. “If that still doesn’t work, I’ll teach you another method. Hmm… try teasing her in a gentle way first and see how she reacts.”
“If she completely breaks down, uh… then stop. But if she shows a shy and wronged look, then it’s definitely a go!”
The little vampire girl nodded. “As for specific operations, like real actions, when she asks you for help, you can set some small conditions. Nothing too much, but a bit embarrassing. See if she’s willing to do it.”
【Watching VTubers Makes Me a Dog: So what if she won’t do it?】
“If she likes you, even if she’s a tsundere, she’ll say ‘no, no’ with her mouth, but her body will be honest in the end. Who would give up a chance to interact with someone they like~? Even if it’s a bit embarrassing, as long as no one else is around and it’s one-on-one, she’ll do it. Trust me!”
As Lin Lin said this, she was already imagining herself in the situation, like she was teasing a cute little girl.
Hehehe…
Back on Gao Liang’s side, hearing the little vampire girl’s words, he also nodded without realizing it.
It did sound like a good idea. One-on-one time, creating more private moments, did seem like a chance.
【Watching VTubers Makes Me a Dog: I get it. I’ll try it in the future. It’s not that I want to chase her. I just think she’s too lonely, and I want to help that not-honest kid make some friends.】
“Mm-hmm~” Seeing Dog Bro’s message, Lin Lin felt a bit touched. She nodded hard and gave him a thumbs-up.
Sigh, if only she could have a desk mate like that, someone who sees how lonely she is and wants to help her make friends.
My god, what a perfect warm guy Dog Bro is. How could Gao Liang compare to him?
And Dog Bro is even a little sly sometimes~ He’s a good…
A perfect example of a good bro!
Hehe~
The girl giggled happily and shouted excitedly:
“Hehe, if it works well, you can slowly increase the intensity. Tease her more, bully her more, and in the end take the little one home. Then start doing happy adult stuff, watching the little girl turn into a shy little wife, puhahaha! Amazing, amazing~ I’m already shipping you two, Dog Bro~”
“When you finally win over the little girl, you must share the story with me! We’ll talk about it again later. I’m so excited~ Seeing a little girl bullied into becoming a shy wife, hehe~ so sweet, so sweet~”
【Watching VTubers Makes Me a Dog: ……】
Looking at the little vampire girl who was completely carried away, Gao Liang didn’t know what to say anymore.
It felt like he was planning something very evil together with the streamer… like bullying a little girl.
The chat also exploded with reactions.
【Damn, the streamer is so smart. Clearly very experienced at teasing people.】
【Got it. I’m recharging now so the streamer can buy a water heater!】
【Hehehe, I really want to bully Ari-chan~ soft and sweet~】
【Isn’t the streamer teaching us how to win over herself? Learned it, learned it~】
【Why is the streamer so skilled? How many little girls has she kidnapped already?】
【Stop slandering her. Maybe the streamer is the one who got kidnapped.】
“Ahem! What are you all talking about?!” Lin Lin said shyly as she slapped the table. “I—I—I…”
There’s no way I’m telling you all that I learned these tricks from manga.
Hmph—
“Anyway, don’t try this move on the streamer, okay! Ari-chan won’t fall for it! Hmph~ Not allowed! Don’t bully the streamer!”
“Ahem, so how about it on your side, Dog Bro? Go for it or not?”
【Watching VTubers Makes Me a Dog: Go for it!】
“Woohoo! Go for it!”
