Her Food Livestream Broke the Galaxy

Chapter 370 - 379: The Duke’s Beloved Daughter

The old Duke let out a questioning hum.

He asked, "Commands a high price? How high? A hundred million? A billion? Or ten billion? If Mei Lin is that taken with this person, there’s no reason we can’t hire them for her."

"We made an offer, but they refused."

"Very well." The old Duke didn’t like forcing people’s hands. "If they’re unwilling, then forget it. It’s fine to spend a little money; it will give Mei Lin something to occupy her time."

"I’m not home often. The old housekeeper tells me Mei Lin is quite fond of you. Do not betray the trust the young miss has placed in you."

"I understand."

"Mm." As they were speaking, Jiang Jiang’s terminal chimed. It was the special notification for a message from the young miss. He glanced at it. "Your Grace, the young miss is looking for me."

"Mei Lin is looking for you? Then go ahead."

Jiang Jiang acknowledged with a sound. "Then I will take my leave."

The moment he stepped out the door, his terminal chimed again. The old Duke had transferred him money—a million Star Coins, sent with the flick of a wrist. The attached message was just one sentence: Take good care of the miss.

He finally understood why so many people had scrambled to pledge their service to the Dais family.

It truly was a... remarkable, generous, and friendly family.

From the Family Head to the young miss, they were all wonderful people.

His gaze lowered, he started toward the main residence, but before he could enter, a maid stopped him.

"?"

"Housekeeper Jiang, there’s someone at the gate for the young miss."

"Who is it? Do they have an appointment?"

"No appointment, but she said she’s been here once before to deliver food to the young miss." Meimei had caught the maid on her way in. The maid remembered seeing Meimei here before while she was cleaning a room, so she knew the woman was telling the truth about having visited.

The woman had asked her to pass a message to someone inside, and in return, had promised...

To her shame, she was tempted.

"Delivering food?" Upon hearing those two words, Jiang Jiang quickly sent a message to Mei Lin.

A moment later, Mei Lin came hurrying downstairs, a haughty smile on her face. "That Qian Xingxing really knows how to play the game! He’s here bringing me gifts again."

"Jiang Jiang, let’s go!"

The two of them went to the main gate together.

Amidst the wind and snow, the solitary figure in red stood out starkly.

When the security guard saw Mei Lin, he immediately saluted. "Young Miss."

"Go and let the person at the gate in."

"Yes, ma’am."

Meimei’s hands were aching from rubbing them for warmth when Mei Lin finally appeared.

She quickly grabbed the insulated container from her car and hurried into the Dais estate.

There was a small reception room just off the main gate with the heating on. As Mei Lin was sensitive to the cold, the three of them headed in there.

"Why are you here alone today?"

"What did you bring?"

"Who sent you with these things?"

"Miss Dais! Please, you have to help us!" Meimei shot to her feet and gave Mei Lin a deep bow.

"...What’s all this about?" Mei Lin was taken aback by her reaction. "What happened?"

"Did your company go out of business?"

"...N-no." Meimei explained that they had lost contact with Little President Qian. "The competition is about to start, but we can’t get in touch with Little President Qian. The branch office is also about to get a new editor-in-chief, everything is up in the air, and everyone at the company is panicking."

"We can’t get any information from headquarters either, so our only option was to come and ask if you knew whether something has happened with the Qian Family recently."

Meimei spoke in a long rush, but all that registered in Mei Lin’s mind was: ’Livestreaming... competition... panicking... uncertain future.’

"..."

’This won’t do.’

’An uncertain future... will that affect Juju’s future?’

’Unacceptable.’

"I don’t know what happened either," Mei Lin said. "But I can ask around for you."

"You wait here. I’m going to contact Uncle Qian."
