Her Food Livestream Broke the Galaxy

Chapter 206: The Butler and the Young Lady

Jiang Qiuqiu and Meimei were arranging their next steps.

"I never expected things to turn out this way..." Meimei was also surprised. "I’ve been in this business for so many years, and this is the first time I’ve ever seen public opinion be so completely one-sided."

"By the way, Qiuqiu, now that things have come to this, what about our plan?" The studio had originally drawn up a plan for handling Wang Henli.

But now...

"Let’s not overdo it," Jiang Qiuqiu said, swaying on the swing. "He’s completely swamped right now. There’s no point in kicking him while he’s down."

"Besides, isn’t the PK competition about to start? We’re in the same division, and he still holds the title of ’Number One Food Streamer.’ We’re bound to run into each other again."

"True," Meimei hummed in agreement. "In that case, we can all take a breather."

"Oh, right! Before I hang up, one more question. What are you planning to cook for tonight’s stream?" Meimei glanced at the man in the office who was frowning as he handled his work, and whispered, "I’m asking for Little President Qian."

"Tonight..."

"I’ll probably make a fish dish."

"Fish with Pickled Greens?"

"No," Jiang Qiuqiu said with a smile. "Everyone’s a bit worked up from dealing with the hired trolls lately. We should eat something light."

"It’s fish ball soup."

Meanwhile, Miss Meilin, having just returned from a socialite gathering, was once again listening to Jiang Jiang’s report.

"That incident on the Star Network... that streamer, Wang, had his manager take the fall. Should we intervene?"

"No need," Mei Lin sneered. "Helping that commoner deal with those foul-mouthed people was already going above and beyond. I’m not some great philanthropist who has to clean up the aftermath, too."

Her tone was clearly off. Jiang Jiang thought for a moment, then asked, "Did something happen at the ball today? You don’t seem very happy."

"Hmph," Mei Lin scoffed. "I’m never going to a socialite ball of that caliber again."

"I went to the ball today, and can you believe someone called me extravagant? Is spending 1.9 billion on one studio considered extravagant?"

"For you, Miss, that’s only a small fraction of your assets."

"I go out to be praised, but instead a gaggle of women did nothing but talk about how I squander my money from start to finish." Ugh, Mei Lin rolled her eyes dramatically. "I’d have been better off staying home and watching the commoner’s stream."

"And to think I got up so early today for that ball."

She glanced at her reflection in the massive floor-to-ceiling mirror, and her gaze suddenly landed on Jiang Jiang standing nearby.

’Huh, I never noticed before. The new butler may be ordinary, but he’s actually quite handsome.’

’Hmm...’

Mei Lin turned her head to look at Jiang Jiang.

Jiang Jiang: ?

"Miss...?"

"Compliment me."

"???"

"What do you think of me today?" Mei Lin rose to her feet and glided over to the windowsill. Lightly gathering the hem of her gown with her left and right hands, she performed a curtsy befitting a noble. "Describe my appearance today. Comment on my makeup, my gown, my aura, and my posture."

At first, Jiang Jiang thought Mei Lin was joking. But after standing there for a moment, he realized she wasn’t kidding in the slightest.

"You look radiant today, Miss. Your makeup is... dazzling... your posture, most graceful..."

The young butler helplessly resorted to poetic phrases he’d learned in his youth, and it was excruciatingly awkward.

But his mistress seemed quite satisfied.

「Night fell once again.」

The recent scandal sent tremors through Wang Henli’s community, but it sent Jiang Qiuqiu’s into a celebratory frenzy.

--Our Juju is the greatest, after all!

--Only the mediocre are never targeted!

--Everything and everyone will bow before Juju’s heated wok and sizzling oil!

The bullet comments flew by in a frenzy. The stream stuttered for a moment, and when it cleared, Jiang Qiuqiu was holding an iron ladle. Her voice, smoothing over the excitement, rang out:

"Welcome, everyone, to my food stream. I’m Jiang Jiujiu, and today’s menu is: Fish Balls!"

The storm had passed. It was time, once again, to enjoy the simple pleasure of good food.
