System: "Our Host Jiang Pengji has just finished her first fully interactive stream . Are you happy with the show? (A) Yes . (B) So-so . (C) Not really . "
Before the audience voted, Jiang Pengji added a bullet screen which embarrassed the System . She was really cunning!
Host V: "The higher your rate, the better my chances are of upgrading the channel! Getting to the next level will increase the viewer limit to ten thousand . If the results are not bad, then maybe I'll start interactive featured streams from time to time in the future to meet your curiosity and bring you novel experience . "
In other words, they had better choose option A if they wanted more interesting shows and an increased viewer quota––a higher host level for her would bring them a better experience . If they gave a low rate, she would remember it .
Some mischievous viewers who intended to choose C thus changed their minds .
The System said to Jiang Pengji, "Host, I can't believe you just said that . "
Jiang Pengji gave a cold laugh and said, "I am only utilizing everything I can . Do you have a problem with that? A shameless system and a shameless host . Aren't we made for each other?"
She did not care much about her image .
Her threatening and impatient tone irritated the System . "Humph! How can you be so mean to me? I thought you liked me . "
Jiang Pengji said like a villain, "I do . I like the way you feel helpless in front of me . "
"…" What could it say to its host?
The poll was soon over, and the System made the calculations within the blink of an eye .
Among three thousand viewers, 2,973 expressed satisfaction, 26 rated "so-so," and one said he was unhappy with the show . Jiang Pengji ignored the negative vote as she immediately discerned who voted that .
Baiqiaokeli: "Sorry Host . I love your show, but some scenes are really too frightening . Hope you won't mind that I chose 'so-so . '"
Heimeiqui: "Me too, but there's nothing to apologize for . I can't give a higher rate . She can't force us to . "
Those comments were followed by some similar ones . Instead of saying sorry, they tried to provoke her . But they would be disappointed, for Jiang Pengji couldn't care less . She did not even mind what the System thought about her, let alone people in another dimension who could only see her on a virtual screen . She would save herself the trouble .
While she was scanning through the comments, she closed her eyes so that others would think she was merely taking a nap .
The System's voice appeared in her brain again . "The result for our first fully interactive stream is excellent! Perhaps it's because of what you said to the audience . "
There were 2,973 positive votes out of three thousand, which meant an astonishingly high rate of 99 . 1 percent! According to the livestream agreement, the host would receive a Gold Chest for a rate of 95 percent or above, a Silver Chest for that between 80 and 95, and a Bronze Chest for that between 60 and 80 . No reward would be given for rates lower than 60 percent .
Jiang Pengji received a Golden Chest . She was also pleased that 99 . 1 percent of her audience was happy with the show .
Host V: "It's quite late now . Let's end here today . Good night . "
As soon as the message was delivered, she shut the channel, and the Host's online status changed from "Streaming" to "Be Right Back . "
Following the electronic synthesized ding-ding sound was the computer's notification about her receiving a reward packet which contained a Golden Chest .
The System asked enthusiastically, "Host, are you opening it now?"
Jiang Pengji would not fulfill its hope easily . "I'll open it tomorrow . "
The System was expecting her to show off how lucky she was by opening the reward and drawing a free level up card . Her getting to a higher level would also benefit the System . Unfortunately, Jiang Pengji was not excited at all; she was determined to act against the computer .
"What's the hurry? I can wait for a night . " As if she could "see" its eager expression, she said slowly, "I won't open it before the right time . Easy, System . "
The System retorted, "I'm not particularly concerned . "
Could not she show a little respect for it?
As the carriage arrived, Jiang Pengji bowed to Liu She and bid him goodbye before she returned to her yard .
The sun would rise two hours later, but the servants kept the lanterns lit throughout the night for her return .
The door was not locked . Jiang Pengji entered and saw the sleepy Taxue and Xunmei each sitting on a pillar, wearing plain cloaks to keep themselves warm . Their heads dropped from time to time, as if they would fall asleep in the next second .
Jiang Pengji could tell how long they had waited . Perceiving her return, the attendants rose to put a cloak on for her . The strong scent of fragrant powder could not escape their noises .
"Langjun, how many girls were with you?" After they had entered the warm chamber, the grumpy Taxue could not help but complain .
Xunmei glared at her, warning her to hold her tongue . Others would say she was disrespectful, which could result in omitting a meal the next day, or taking away her wage for that month and substituting her with another girl as the Langjun's close attendant .
Jiang Pengji answered readily, "A bunch of beauties, of course . "
Taxue could make no reply . Jiang Pengji always left the others unable to retort .
"If you're interested, maybe I can take you there next time . "
The attendant side-eyed her . "Langjun, this must be a joke . No decent girls would ever visit those…" Before she finished, she suddenly remembered that they were of the same sex, which meant she had included the Langjun in her remarks .
Thus the pale-faced girl knelt with panic . "I beg your pardon, my Langjun! I was losing my mind!"
