Chapter 262: Sudden Fainting, Accidental Face Reveal
He was a little anxious and decided to ask Jiang Qiuqiu after the livestream.
But the more he watched the livestream, the more anxious he became.
At first, it was just a slight tremor in her hand. But after the food was ready, Mo Si noticed something else. When she used the scanner on the food, she actually misaimed it!
Aiming incorrectly was something that should have been impossible for Jiang Qiuqiu when she was cooking!
Mo Si had seen her cook. With her spiritual power focused, it was impossible for her to make such a small mistake. Unless—
-
Everything was about to come to an end.
The second batch of oysters was finished. Jiang Qiuqiu breathed a sigh of relief. All she had to do was wait for the assistant robot to finish scanning the food, and the livestream would come to a successful conclusion.
The promotion had been very effective, so she hadn’t wasted Little President Qian and Sister Mingmei’s kindness.
But the assistant robot was scanning too slowly on its own. To speed things up, Jiang Qiuqiu took out a scanner herself. Seeing how fast she was going, her fans filled the bullet comments: "Juju is the best! She totally gets how we feel. We can’t wait, hehehe."
Jiang Qiuqiu had a subconscious habit of counting as she scanned. ’One, two, three...’ Her hand moved nonstop, her eyes following it as it swept across the neatly arranged oysters.
She reached the last row. ’Twenty-three, twenty-four—’
Everything felt surreal. Jiang Qiuqiu thought she was perfectly clear-headed, yet it felt like she and time itself had suddenly frozen. She couldn’t tell if the room was spinning or if she was. Then, her perspective seemed to shift abruptly.
’From... the window to the ceiling?’
Confusion welled up in her mind. A weight pressed down on her back, and just like that, Jiang Qiuqiu lost consciousness.
The scanner in her hand clattered to the floor, the sound of metal on the ground ringing out sharply.
The fans watching the livestream didn’t know what had happened. They only knew that Juju had suddenly vanished from the frame. Before they could even type questions into the bullet comments, the camera angle abruptly shifted.
The camera bot had been tracking Jiang Qiuqiu’s hand.
When her hand disappeared from view, the bot paused for a moment before automatically searching for its ’subject’.
Jiang Qiuqiu was now lying on the floor. Since the camera bot was positioned high above where her hand had been, it easily captured the entire scene.
The greatest advantage of the Federation’s holographic livestreams was their realism and clarity. Even a camera that wasn’t top-of-the-line could display a near-photorealistic image.
And so, at this very moment, her long-time fans easily got a look at the one and only Jiang Qiuqiu—the same streamer who had never once posted a single photo or personal update, even during the flame wars with paid trolls over her looks.
Back then, everyone had come to the firm conclusion that Qiuqiu must be a gentle, sweet, and wholesome girl... whose looks were probably nothing special.
’Who knew she was this beautiful!?’ Even lying crookedly on the ground, lips pale and face looking ill, she still possessed a girlish charm.
But her looks weren’t the point right now. The point was—
???
"Holy shit, what happened? Why did Juju suddenly collapse?"
"What’s going on?"
"Someone call an ambulance!"
A wave of worried comments flashed across the screen. In Jiang Jiujiu’s die-hard fan group, countless lurkers suddenly surfaced, all pinging @Wanxing.
—@Wanxing Admin, are you watching the stream? Juju fainted!
—Do we have her address? Can you look it up? Is Juju’s stream IP encrypted? Hurry and call an ambulance!!
The entire stream descended into chaos.
The moment Meimei saw what happened, she contacted a hospital near Starry Sky Wander. Then, she immediately logged into Little President Qian’s admin account and blacked out the video feed for Jiang Qiuqiu’s stream.
In other words, the stream was still active and people could still chat in the bullet comments, but the video feed was gone.
"??? What’s going on? Did my connection drop?"
"What the hell???"
Wanxing and the PR department were busy handling the emergency, trying to explain the situation and calm the frantic fans.
Meimei and Little President Qian were already in a Hovercar on their way to Starry Sky Wander—
"Little President Qian, go faster!"
"I’m going as fast as I can! Any faster and this thing will take off. This piece of junk only goes so fast." He was just as anxious.
But the most anxious person of all... was someone else.
