Holy fuck, how could there be a stunning beauty in this kind of shady restaurant?? (Part Two)
So, it turned out that Shao Wei found a job in an internet celebrity company straight out of college, working as an assistant for a well-known local food streamer.
But after a few months of work, she encountered many harassments by that streamer. In a fit of anger, she resigned and went back home.
Lao Shao only had a precious daughter. When he heard about this, how could he let the matter die? He went knocking on the streamer’s door for a proper talk with the streamer, and almost got the police involved due to the fuss he made.
Unexpectedly, the streamer was simply a hooligan. Not only did he not apologize, but he also turned his head and posted a so-called restaurant review of Lao Shao’s restaurant. He talked about how the food was disgusting and pointed out problems with the ingredients, like how they weren’t fresh, and inferior products were used.
That streamer had a lot of fans, and most of his followers were people from Ling City. As soon as his video was released, it spread from one to ten, then ten to one hundred.
The most unethical thing was that this streamer also bought a promotion that targeted especially to the people near Lingde.
If he only said that the food wasn’t good, people wouldn’t have cared as much. But when it came to food safety, it became a huge problem.
In a short amount of time, the reputation of Lao Shao’s restaurant dropped a thousand zhang.
The worst thing was that in a fit of rage, Lao Shao impulsively sent a private message to question the streamer’s integrity, asking him to delete the review video.
What ended up happening was the streamer directly blacklisted Lao Shao, not before snipping the private message before exposing it, accusing the old man of threatening him and ultimately portraying Lao Shao like a force of evil.
Lingde’s location was quite special, with many of the tenants living here being flexible. New residents have limited knowledge of local established restaurants, and business here mostly rely on word-of-mouth as marketing. Not to mention young people from secondary schools who didn’t have the ability to distinguish good from bad.
As a result, no one dared to patronize Lao Shao’s restaurant, and his restaurant naturally became more deserted.
And the reason for the present situation.
Not expecting for the inside story to be this, Ren Xingliu frowned.
Bai Juanqiu’s expression didn’t look pleasant either. He looked at the girl, who was still livestreaming in the corner and said, “The reason why Shao Wei is doing livestream is because she wants to clear the restaurant’s name?”
“Yes, that girl said something about beating magic with magic?” Lao Shao let out a long sigh again. “It’s simply useless. She didn’t have that many fans to begin with, and she is livestreaming something that people aren’t interested in. But she is not working currently, and without anything to do, I let her be…”
After this incident, Shao Wei had some mental trauma from working and decided to take a break. Lao Shao doted on his daughter, so he naturally allowed it.
As it happened, during school, Shao Wei posted several videos on her livestream platform for fun and accumulated some fans without meaning to.
When such a thing happened so close at home, and seeing her father was getting burnt of the blame, she could no longer sit still, so she came up with a foolish way to livestream herself.
However, as Lao Shao had said, she didn’t have many fans to begin with, so there wasn’t that much traction. After days of doing her very best and making so much noise, there hadn’t been any improvement.

On the other hand, Ren Xingliu said, “I think she is doing pretty well. With her easy-going manners, she might be able to come across an opportunity and turn red.”
In the days when he just came back from his transmigration, he was quite addicted to the internet for a while. He browsed through various livestream platforms and found that as long as there was a topic to behold, any monsters, demons, or ghosts could walk the path of turning red.
Shao Wei had a decent appearance as well, and she didn’t have stage fright. Although what she was streaming was too plain, it could also be a kind of distinguishing feature. It was really possible for her to encounter an opportunity to soar her traffic.
Lao Shao only treated them as being polite and didn’t take it to heart. He said, “I’ve been so focused on talking that I forgot to serve you your food. Have a seat. Since it’s so rare for Juanqiu to come back, and with an esteemed guest on that of that, I must show off my two hands.”
Bai Juanqiu nodded. “Don’t let the distress get to you. There will always be a solution for your restaurant.”
The two of them sat down.
Lao Shao was quick and agile. In no time at all, a few hot stir-fried dishes were served. The steaming hot food carried an unrestrained aroma that pounced on anyone’s nose. The dishes were nothing new, but the ingredients and heat usage were perfect.
Ren Xingliu’s index finger twitched in an instant. A hand suddenly reached over and pushed a bowl and chopsticks in front of him.
“Use this.” Bai Juanqiu said, “I have already heat sanitized it.”
The utensils used in the restaurant were often plastic, and many people cared very much about hygiene. Before they dine, they would first clean the cutlery with hot water before eating.
Comrade Xiao Bai was amazing at taking care of single-armed him!
Ren Xingliu’s eyes curved and sincerely said, “You’re so kind.”
“As I should.” Bai Juanqiu said seriously, “If you’re satisfied with my service, don’t forget to give me a tip.”
“…” Ren Xingliu asked with dead seriousness, “I have no more coins. Do you accept electronic transfers?”
Bai Juanqiu burst out laughing.
Lao Shao’s skill was indeed good. Ren Xingliu quickly forgot to talk glibly with Bai Juanqiu and began to bury his face into his bowl.
As he was eating vigorously, he heard Shao Wei suddenly shrill, sounding both exasperated and frustrated.
“Nonsense, it’s clearly you who slandered people—”
“You know full well of what you have done—”
Ren Xingliu and Bai Juanqiu looked up and found that the girl, who had just been interacting with her viewers in a gentle manner, was suddenly agitated and flushed. She urgently defended herself, “So what if I’m the owner’s daughter…”
She seemed to be arguing with someone, but she was obviously not good at quarreling. She was nearly in tears.
Bai Juanqiu didn’t say hello to her because he didn’t want to affect her streaming. But when he noticed that the situation wasn’t right, that became the least of his worry.
Just as he was about to get up, the person across from him had already stood up.
Ren Xingliu frowned and said, “Let’s go have a look. We can’t have people bully her!”
Whatever the case, Shao Wei was at least Bai Juanqiu’s friend. Seeing that she was on the verge of tears, she must have encountered something, so he naturally couldn’t sit idly by.
“Alright.” Bai Juanqiu nodded.
…
Shao Wei actually noticed Bai Juanqiu’s presence as soon as he stepped foot inside, but she didn’t say hello to him because she was in the middle of her livestreaming.
But the truth was, her heart was gray, and her thoughts were cold.
In the past few days, she had been diligently livestreaming every day, but unfortunately, the results have been minimal. The few fans she had weren’t local, so they couldn’t contribute to her goal.
After a few days, she ran her voice to the ground. Even so, she didn’t increase her view count, nor did she clear her father’s name on the internet.
Shao Wei had the thought to listen to her father and find a stable job.
But she wasn’t willing to yield. It just so happened that the platform had recently introduced a PK mode, and she wanted to give it a try.
This so-called PK mode referred to different streamers connecting to each other during livestream and engaging in a battle, which could attract more viewers. If they were popular enough, they might also be recommended by the platform on its homepage.
Shao Wei herself had few fans, so naturally, the large streamers refused to connect to her; they weren’t that charitable. The ones she was able to connect with were other small streamers that were as unpopular as she was.
But Shao Wei didn’t give up, always taking the PK seriously.
It was just unexpected, she suddenly received a connection request, which she accepted without looking at it closely from how exhausted her eyes were from today’s long stream. Once the connection was formed, it turned out that her opponent was her former employer, the same food streamer who not only harassed her, but also smeared her family. The streamer went by Gluttonous Hui-ye, whose real name was Peng Hui.
Peng Hui clearly knew that she was livestreaming and deliberately requested for a connection with her, wanting to give dignity of dismounting from the horse on her.
Therefore, as soon as the connection was completed, without waiting for Shao Wei to speak, Peng Hui was already updating his fans on the whole story. This female streamer was the daughter of a shady restaurant owner, and now she was livestreaming to clear her family. He then concluded by warning everyone not to fall for it.
Peng Hui’s fan base was something Shao Wei couldn’t compete with, and with the review video still up and referred to, many fans naturally bought the lies and instantly flamed Shao Wei.
This had never happened to Shao Wei before, the force was so great, even if she wanted to argue with Peng Hui, she wasn’t as good with words compared to an old oil. Any counter she made would be criticized by Peng Shui, soon, she became the laughingstock of his livestream.
She didn’t dare to say anything about Peng Hui harassing her in front of so many people. On the one hand, she had thin skin, and the humiliation would be too much for her, and on the other hand, with how Peng Hui conducted himself, it might backfire, something he could blend and slander her.
As a result, more and more people came to her livestream just to chew her out. It could be expected that under Peng Hui’s instigation, these people may still frequently stop by her livestream in order to tell other viewers about her ‘popular science’, which basically ended her livestream career.
For example, at this moment, her small fan base became suspicious of her.
[Wah, I didn’t think the host would be this kind of person…]
[I was right to question why the host is pushing this restaurant so much. It turned out it’s a black shop. I almost fell for it.]
[Man, why do this. You’re so pretty too.]
On the other livestream room, Peng Hui also took in her sorry state and proudly raised his chin, saying contemptuously, “You overestimated your capabilities and insisted on becoming a streamer. You think fans will trust someone like you?”
“You are so shameless!” Shao Wei’s voice trembled with anger. She would have burst into tears, if it wasn’t for her unwillingness to make Peng Hui any more pleased.
Despite this, she was well aware that everything she was doing at the moment was in vain, so she might as well give up and end her livestream.
Just then, two tall figures suddenly appeared in front of her table.
Bai Juanqiu raised his hand and lightly tapped on the table, asking, “Shao Wei, are you okay?”
Ren Xingliu bent down and looked at the phone screen, asking, “What happened?”
He had watched many livestreams, but had never seen it from a streamer’s perspective, which inevitably piqued his curiosity.
Shao Wei was staring intensely at the screen and didn’t notice their presence at all. She wasn’t prepared for a face popping into her livestream.
What surprised her even more was that just a moment later, the formerly chaotic bullet screen suddenly changed—
[Holy fuck, where did this hot guy come from???]
[Fuck me, how could there be a stunning beauty in this kind of black shop??? You could have told me earlier; I would be there by now.]
[Add one to above. Hottie or not, I just wanted some food, really!]
Shao Wei: “?”
Peng Hui, who was feeling pleased: “???”
