Volume 3 Chapter 58: I Want To, Too

When she heard his comment, Gao Ye’s mouth twitched.

Good grief.

She’s just a small, low-level streamer!

Well…

Even though she really wanted to complain, Lin Yu didn’t understand this world at all. He had no idea how crazy the chat could be in big streamers’ rooms.

Still, she could tell that Lin Yu seemed… a little jealous.

Pfft—

Okay, if you think deeply about it, this might involve some serious topics. But right now, Gao Ye just smiled, reached out, and gently patted his head.

Lin Yu immediately blushed and turned his face away shyly.

“Hehe, I’m just a small streamer. I don’t have many fans. If you look at big streamers, rich fans line up for them. I’m just doing this for fun~”

“R-really?”

Lin Yu still looked doubtful. After all, Gao Ye already had quite a few followers.

She tilted her head with a playful smile.

“Of course! And chatting with viewers and replying to comments is part of a streamer’s job. It’s just work!”

That… actually made sense.

Lin Yu started to feel a bit embarrassed. When he thought about it carefully, he realized he didn’t really have the right to be jealous—ah, no, to care about what she said during her streams. After all, he and Gao Ye were just friends.

But…

He still felt a little unhappy.

“Then I’ll join too! I’ll send comments in your livestream as well!”

After thinking for a long time, Lin Yu declared this like some grand promise.

Gao Ye almost burst out laughing. She secretly laughed for quite a while before waving her hand.

“Alright, alright, I got it. I remember your username now. Whenever you come to my stream, I’ll give you special thanks~ I’ll even say ‘like’ more often~”

“Like… like?”

Lin Yu blushed again.

Seeing that, Gao Ye quickly changed the topic.

“Oh right! There’s one more thing you must pay attention to!”

“What is it?!”

Lin Yu blinked.

Gao Ye put on a mysterious expression, leaned close to his ear, and whispered softly,

“Shh~ don’t reveal my real identity~”

“O-oh… I… I won’t.”

Her warm breath near his ear made his heart beat faster.

Gao Ye then sat back up, swaying slightly as she spoke cheerfully,

“Most virtual streamers don’t want to reveal who they are in real life. Since they chose to be virtual streamers, it means they don’t want it to affect their real lives. Cough, cough… that’s basically it.”

“Got it!”

Lin Yu nodded seriously, which made Gao Ye feel more relieved.

Actually, telling him was a sudden decision. She was still a bit worried. After all, he didn’t know much about this circle. What if he accidentally revealed something?

“Don’t share any real information at all… like Sister Lin Lin and my brother… uh…”

Oh no. She slipped!

Gao Ye suddenly stopped talking.

But Lin Yu had already noticed something strange.

He frowned slightly and looked at her.

“What… what do you mean?”

“Huh? You don’t know? Um… anyway, you at least know what Sister Lin Lin does, right?”

“What does she do?”

“Huh?!”

Gao Ye was shocked.

Lin Yu… he really hasn’t realized anything at all?

“Ah—nothing!”

“Then why did you just mention my sister and Gao Liang…?”

“Ahahaha…” Gao Ye waved her hands in a nervous way. “No… nothing.”

“Then I’ll go ask my sister?”

At this key moment, Lin Yu’s brain worked fast. He quickly caught Gao Ye’s weak point and pushed forward, like he was digging into the secrets of the virtual streamer world step by step.

Gao Ye became nervous right away and waved her hands again.

If this fool really went to ask Sister Lin Lin, she might not say anything, but she would definitely think Gao Ye was the one who leaked the secret!

Since that’s the case…

Hmm…

Maybe she should just go all in.

Anyway, Lin Yu is one of us. He’s Sister Lin Lin’s family. Sooner or later, he will find out, right?

Keeping this secret all by herself has honestly made her feel a bit unhappy.

She cleared her throat.

“Um, Lin Yu, I’ll tell you a secret. But you must not tell anyone. Not even your sister. And you cannot share any real information. Understand?”

Gao Ye stared at him very seriously. She stared so hard that he felt a chill on his back.

“If it’s too secret, I don’t have to know…” Lin Yu said weakly. He even tried to turn his head away.

But Gao Ye quickly grabbed him and looked at him with hopeful eyes.

“I already told you so much! For our future plans, you need to work with me. This is a mission. A mission!”

“O-Okay, I get it, a mission!”

Hearing her say that made him even more afraid to hear this “secret.” Gao Ye looked like she was about to pull him onto a pirate ship.

But…

Because he trusted the girl who once saved him, Lin Yu finally agreed.

Gao Ye nodded.

“Actually… Sister Lin Lin is also a streamer. Just like me.”

“I know that!” Lin Yu nodded. “She told me she streams study sessions… Wait, Gao Ye, you suddenly tell me this… don’t tell me…”

“That’s right. Sister Lin Lin is also a virtual streamer. The ‘study stream’ is probably just something she told you. Her ID is Ari-chan. You can search for it. It’s in my following list.”

“Huh?”

Lin Yu stared at her in disbelief.

His sister… a virtual streamer?

How is that possible? With her personality, can she really do something like streaming, talking in front of a screen every day?

“Don’t be shocked yet. Let me finish. Actually… we met a few months ago. After we found out each other’s real identities, we kept it secret. Sometimes we even do joint streams together. But… I found something big!”

The more Gao Ye talked, the more she looked like she was describing a huge conspiracy. Lin Yu started to feel scared just listening to her.

This opening feels like a horror story.

Still, he couldn’t understand.

He could accept someone like Gao Ye doing livestreams.

But his sister… she can stream too?

Is streaming that easy now? Can you just stand there like a piece of wood and still make money?

Unless…

Maybe she has a hidden wild side?

Well… that is possible.

Oh—

Now it makes sense.

Recently, he often heard very excited and emotional sounds coming from his sister’s room.
