Transmigration of the Famous Cyberstar (1)

Chapter 17: Live-streaming Chinese Calligraphy

''my talented goddess owo''

When Liu Man finished feeding Daylight and had put away the cat food, her phone had already run out of battery.

When she finally turned her phone back on and re-entered the live-stream, most of her audience members had already left.

She stood up and decided to clean her desk. The original owner of her body had an assortment of bottles and cans filled with random things, which were lying around on the desk. Liu Man put them one by one into the drawers. She then carefully laid out a piece of rice paper used for calligraphy, which she had bought from Taobao. The rice paper was milky white and had a unique scent. She then placed the inkstone down and started to rub an ink-stick against the ink-stone, which would create the ink she uses when she writes.

"Otaku Boy", the teenager, was just about to shut down his computer and finally study for his exam. When he glanced up, he suddenly realized that in his "following" list, the account listed as "Princess Man" was live-streaming again. He immediately threw his book back onto the pile and re-entered the live-stream.

"Just look at him, he's beyond addicted," Roommate A shook his head with resignation.

"I installed this live-streaming application before. A lot of women gained fans only by turning on beauty filters and flirting around foolishly. I considered it too boring and deleted the application within just a few minutes. I would rather read books," Roommate B was very erudite.

Roommate C, however, said, "Aren't you guys curious about what he's even watching? Let's go and see."

The other two, who hadn't felt curious at first, suddenly became curious as well, after hearing what Roommate C had said. The trio then went behind "Otaku Boy" and looked at his computer screen, but only saw a desk with a white piece of paper spread on top. "What's that live-streamer doing?"

"I'm not sure either," The teenager couldn't wrap his head around it, "She usually live-streams herself selling AJs or films her cat. Why isn't she doing either of them right now?"

What live-streamer? They couldn't see the face of the live-streamer, but could only see a pair of hands with fingers that were extraordinarily long and pretty. One hand was pouring water into the ink-stone, and the other was rubbing the ink-stick, "Is she going to show off her calligraphy skills?"

Roommate B studied calligraphy a little when he was younger, so he knew a bit, "On this kind of live-streaming application where there are all kinds of low-quality live-streams, how many skillful calligraphists would there be? She must've only known a little about calligraphy and is now trying to make money off of it by showing off a bit of her poor skills."

The teenager, however, was very excited about what's going to be live-streamed. He felt as if he had found an amazing live-streamer. His guts told him that this live-streamer would go on fire in the future.

TL's Note: 'go on fire'... popular... GET IT?

In comparison with those other live-streamers, Princess Man made him felt different every time she live-streamed.

The teenager was never attracted to AJs, but he always found it very interesting to watch her sell shoes. When she sold second-handed shoes, she was never deceptive as a businessman would be. She would always tell her fans how many times the shoes were worn, where they were dirty and where they were slightly rubbed on, and the degree on how new it was. She truly wanted the buyer to accept and like her shoes.

Some fans inferred that since Princess Man's cat was very expensive and because she owned so many AJs, her parents must've been incredibly rich. The teenager thought it different. Every time she live-streamed, he could only see her from below the chin. Her neck and her wrists never had any jewelry on, and her nails were clean, with no nail polish on. There was also a set of clothing that she had worn several times.
