Chapter 9 - Chapter 9: Livestreaming Melon Sales

"Watch out!"

Just as they were about to collide, Chi Youyou skillfully sidestepped, agilely avoiding it. She also stepped on the back of her skateboard while reaching out to grab the girl who almost fell.

With a "bang," the skateboard flipped over, its wheels still spinning continuously.

"Thank goodness, a safe landing!"

The skateboard girl snapped back to reality and realized she was still in the arms of the pretty young lady. She quickly jumped up, "Thank you so much, my skateboard's brakes failed. Are you hurt? Do you need to go to the hospital? I'll cover the medical expenses!"

"I'm fine, but this is really dangerous. Luckily, I grew up running in the mountains, tough-skinned and all. Otherwise, bumping into someone else wouldn't be good."

"You're right, I'll be careful in the future."

"Mm-hmm, safety first!"

Chi Youyou didn't linger, her mind set on catching her bus. She waved goodbye and left.

The skateboard girl watched her back, suddenly realizing she should have asked for the pretty young lady's number! They were both college mates after all!

Oh well, she headed to the Agricultural College to report in first.

"Hello, senior, my name is Shen Xiaomi, a first-year student majoring in agriculture."

...

Neither of them knew that a short video of what just happened was filmed and uploaded to the school forum.

They even zoomed in on the part where Chi Youyou spoke.

In an instant, she went from being a wealthy heiress to a country girl.

#Why did the country girl get out of a Bentley? Eating with her face or sold her soul#

#Luxury car surprise, not an heiress but a pheasant#

...

"There really is a bus every hour~"

Chi Youyou looked at the Imperial City University bus with a face full of helplessness.

"The first bus is at 5 AM, and the last bus is at 7 PM."

Unaware of the day's events at the school, she noted the schedule at the bus stop and boarded the bus back home.

Today was just freshmen registration, classes officially started tomorrow, so now she was off to livestream and earn some money~

An hour later.

"Hello everyone~ this is Youzi's live broadcast, don't ask what I'm doing, just know I'm weeding~"

Upon reaching home, Chi Youyou made a simple phone stand with a branch and started streaming live.

She put on a small straw hat, wore shoes and clothes meant for work, and used a sickle to clear weeds in the yard.

On her way back, she checked up on some livestream-related details and knew that at the start, the audience wouldn't be large, so she decided to tidy the yard while waiting for viewers.

[Finally got to see Youbao's stream!]

"Hello, Hani's... grandpa?"

Chi Youyou wiped her forehead sweat with a towel slung over her shoulder, staring, baffled, at the sudden comment on her screen.

Hani's grandpa?

Huh?

How come there are so many people suddenly?

She couldn't process the "Hani's grandpa" comment as she glanced at the live viewer count and fell into a daze.

20 people!

And it seemed to be increasing.

Before, it was basically single digits...

[Youbao~ My grandpa loves your live stream and those honeydew melons!]

"I didn't expect it was actually Hani's grandpa, just now I thought it was a coincidence~"

[Hehe, I also brought my friends to watch the live stream~]

Shen Xiaomi, far away at Imperial City University, got Chi Youyou's live stream notification and shared it with her grandpa immediately. She also attracted a few of her roommates, who were all Agricultural College students. Seeing someone live streaming about farming, they all found it interesting.

One shared to the next, and soon enough, the audience count climbed up.

[Hani said there's a pretty lady streaming farming, want to check it out!]

[+1, want to see how the lady farms!]

[Heard the lady's honeydew melons are amazingly tasty!]

...

"Thank you, Hani Baby, a bit overwhelmed by the attention. Also, thanks to all the new viewers, but sorry, there are no honeydew melons left, however!"

Chi Youyou deftly finished clearing the weeds, hoisted a hoe, and walked to the melon patch, "There are still watermelons!"

And she picked up a melon from the patch.

"Though they're not big, their flesh is crisp, juicy, and refreshing."

[Is that a tiger-striped watermelon?! Want to buy!]

[What tiger-striped watermelon, isn't it just whatever the streamer claims.]

[The one above wanting to buy must be a shill for the streamer, too obvious!]

...

Besides the viewers brought by Shen Xiaomi, some curious strangers also clicked in, just in time to see Chi Youyou boasting about her melons, which brought on a wave of skepticism.

People buy melons daily, they can't be fooled.

Just a watermelon, let's see how you're going to hype it up!
