Volume 2 Chapter 39: How Many Kids Does the Streamer Want?
“Cough, alright, it’s my turn to ask now! Viewers in the stream, everyone pick number 3!”
Sister Wenmei built up the moment, then suggested this with a sly smile. Lin Lin froze for a second, then immediately slapped the desk and protested,
“Hey, hey, hey?! How can you guide the voting like that?!”
Wait, wait, let me take a look… the third question is…
“Hehehe~ Ari-chan, my question is… how many children do you want to have in the future?”
“Uh…”
Lin Lin fell silent for a moment. On screen, the little vampire girl’s face also turned red, and the chat instantly went crazy.
【I’ll say a number! 100,086!】
【Tiny Ari-chan, hehe, smells nice, soft and cute.】
【Someone take the comment above away.】
【With who?】
【It has to be me!】
【Ari-chan, my Ari-chan!】
“Ah… this… uh…”
Lin Lin shook her head hard. “No, no… not having any!”
Cough. After saying that, the girl shyly turned her head away.
Hmm… what she said sounds pretty reasonable, right?
She used to be a boy!
Even though she’s a girl now, and might continue living as a girl in the future, but… having children…
It still feels strange to her.
Especially when she imagines herself with a big pregnant belly, or breastfeeding.
Gasp—
That’s terrifying.
Not to mention the periods she’s experienced recently. Every time she thinks about it, she feels…
Being a girl has some nice parts, sure, but some parts…
The pain… really hurts.
Uh, but in a way, does that mean she got exactly what she wished for?
Cough. Anyway, the chat is right about one thing, who would she even have kids with?
It’s not like the child could just have the last name…
“Eh? Really? It feels like Ari-chan is especially not being honest tonight~ But yeah, giving birth really hurts.”
Sister Wenmei nodded, then continued, “Your turn!”
“Cough, my turn!”
Lin Lin had learned the trick now.
Oh? So you can guide the viewers like this?
She quickly looked at her question cards.
Hmm…
“I want number 5! Pick number 5!”
Lin Lin tilted her mouth into a crooked smile and started to fight back.
“Eh?” Sister Wenmei laughed quietly. “Little vampire girl, your question is pretty sharp~”
“Too direct?”
Lin Lin thought to herself. She only wanted to know what Sister Wenmei planned to do in the future. After all, Sister Wenmei was under time pressure. If she couldn’t reach one million followers, she would have to find another path.
After Lin Lin shouted wildly in the livestream for a while, the viewers did exactly what she wanted and chose the third question.
“Ahem, ahem. Sister Wenmei, it’s my turn now~ May I ask, what is your plan for your future career? Ahem, at least for the next year.”
“Eh? Well~”
Sister Wenmei smiled, then suddenly showed a PowerPoint. The little vampire girl blinked in confusion.
She had prepared it already.
She even brought a PPT!
She came fully ready!
“Ahem! Alright, let me take this chance to officially introduce to everyone in the stream our future career plan, also known as my… ‘Demi-Human Girl Trio Plan’!”
“From now on, me, Hki the Hydrogen Girl, Ari-chan, and Xiao Ye official. Well, the three of us, will join a virtual idol group. And our group name is the one you see above, the Demi-Human Girl Trio~”
“In the coming days, we’ll often do collab streams together and aim to become BIG BIG BIG VTUBER as soon as possible! Please support us~”
After listening to this ad-like announcement that sounded totally planned in advance, Lin Lin and the viewers all went silent.
After a short moment, the chat finally became active.
【What kind of name is that? It’s ridiculous!】
【Can we pick a more classy and cool name? Even ‘Animals’ would be better.】
【So… a zoo, right?】
【Hey, don’t slander her. Our Sister Hydrogen isn’t a hydrogen bomb. Your hydrogen bombs are living things or what?】
【This is embarrassing. Just quit the group already!】
“Damn!”
Seeing the comment telling her to quit the group, Du Wenmei finally snapped. She slammed the table and protested.
“What’s wrong with this name?! What’s wrong with it, huh?!”
“Ahahaha…”
Lin Lin quickly wanted to step in and calm things down, but for a moment she couldn’t think of what to say. Then she suddenly remembered that Wenmei still hadn’t asked her a question yet!
“Sister Hydrogen! The question! The question!”
“Oh right, there’s still a question!”
Sister Wenmei suddenly remembered. She puffed up her cheeks and argued with the chat.
“See? This is what you get for opposing the name I picked! I’ll choose the last question myself. Ahem! Ari-chan! Question five! Listen carefully, if you could choose, would you rather be a boy or a girl?”
“Ah…”
Lin Lin regretted it.
She shouldn’t have reminded her. Watching Sister Wenmei argue with the chat and lose her cool was way more fun.
And now, because of that, this woman had turned the battlefield onto her instead.
“Aw—”
Being a boy or being a girl…
Lin Lin scratched her head in worry.
It felt like she had already made that choice before.
But was that choice really the right one? A decision made in a moment of impulse had somehow come true with the help of a mysterious power. Did it really give her what she wanted?
Hmm…
At least—
After becoming a girl, she met people she had never known before. That alone might be enough.
The girl lowered her head and stayed silent for a moment. Without realizing it, she picked up her phone.
Huh?
Why did I grab my phone?
She looked at the already-open chat app. On the main message list, Gao Liang’s name was still there.
It scared her so much that she almost threw the phone away.
Awuuwu…
As if something had suddenly hit a sensitive spot, the little vampire girl quickly shook her head and blurted out.
“A boy—boy—boy… a boy!”
“Eh? Why?!” Sister Wenmei seemed surprised by the answer. Why would a cute girl like Xiao Lin want to be a boy?
“Uh…”
At… at least—
If she were a boy, she wouldn’t have to deal with her mortal enemy!
Damn it!
That cursed system, she was starting to think that all these connections with her enemy were caused by the system!
【Who's the guy responsible for this?】
【Ari-chan, look at me, I’m a guy who likes guys!】
【Whoa, this one’s even more hardcore!】
【Wow, such a cute girl’s voice, but with a tough man’s heart inside.】
【So not a soft bottom’s heart, huh?】
【I’m dying laughing!】
“Ahhh, okay, okay, I give up! Stop spamming, stop spamming! I’ll choose girl, alright? A girl!”
“Then what about having kids?!” Sister Wenmei asked.
“Three kids, three kids, okay?! Damn it, damn it!”
Watching the little vampire girl make a shy mess of herself on screen, Gao Liang couldn’t help but smile.
The entertainment value tonight was really top-tier.
It’s just that…
Ari-chan… pfft. Somehow, this girl really didn’t sound very honest tonight.
That way of speaking, he could tell right away that she didn’t truly mean it.
Since when had he become this sharp? He could even read tone now…
Uh…
Could it be…
Thanks to Lin Lin?
