Just then.
The screen in Bai Jing's live stream suddenly split in two, showing a female streamer opposite her who was dressed coolly and revealingly.
She wore a revealing tank top, exposing just the right amount of cleavage, which she then partially covered with a tissue, as if afraid others wouldn't notice.
Her face carried a strong aura of worldly seductiveness, making it obvious at a glance that she was a streamer willing to go all out.
This female streamer, named [Little Fish is Obedient], immediately showed strong hostility when she spoke:
"You're that Bai Jing, right? My Brother Turbid Wine said you offended him, so he asked me to come challenge you to a PK match. Do you dare accept?"
Something's happening!
Lin Mo was surprised, and his eyes immediately lit up as he looked at Bai Jing.
Bai Jing frowned slightly. She didn't really want to engage with the other party, as this PK match wasn't mandatory.
Just as she was about to refuse, someone in the opponent's live stream got on the microphone—it was A Cup of Turbid Wine, the one who had just been cursing.
As soon as he appeared, he was incredibly arrogant and immediately started cursing crudely:
"Damn it, why are you still putting on airs in front of me at your age? Do you think you're some young girl?"
"I spent so much money on you, and you're still so ungrateful. You really don't know how to treat people."
"You must accept this PK match today, or else you'll refund my money and apologize."
"Hurry up! I've decided to challenge you. Don't think about hiding. If this isn't resolved today, you won't be able to stream peacefully ever again."
Bai Jing originally didn't want to respond, but the opponent was being overly aggressive and wouldn't let up.
He even demanded she refund the money spent on gifts, but she had used part of her live stream income from the past few days to pay debts, and the rest was spent on rent and daily necessities.
It wasn't that she didn't want to refund the money; she simply couldn't afford it right now!
Being insulted in the live stream in front of so many people.
At this moment, Bai Jing once again realized the importance of money. If she were rich, why would she need to show her face publicly and let ill-intentioned perverts insult her freely?
In an instant, Bai Jing fell into a difficult and awkward situation.
"Sister Jing, don't be afraid. I'm still here in the live stream."
Just then, someone else got on the mic on Bai Jing's side—it was [Wanderer], the other person who had just sent gifts. He stepped forward, ready to back Bai Jing up:
"Sister Jing, this conflict needs to be resolved eventually, or you won't be able to stream normally."
"It's fine, just have a PK match with them. After they lose, they won't come back to harass you."
"Don't worry, I still have Diamonds. We won't lose to them."
Hearing this, Bai Jing felt a subtle stirring in her heart.
This Big Brother named [Wanderer] was the only one in the live stream who hadn't hinted at anything improper; he was usually very polite and seemed stable, like someone who had weathered many storms.
Compared to those perverts who wanted to meet up after sending a few gifts, Bai Jing felt quite favorable toward him.
In such a predicament, he still stood by her side and helped her. Bai Jing's favorable impression of him soared, and while grateful, she also chose to trust him.
"Thank you, [Wanderer]. Thank you for stepping forward to help me."
Having made up her mind, Bai Jing responded. She smiled gently and sincerely thanked [Wanderer], and then addressed the hostile female streamer opposite her:
"Fine, we accept this PK match. If I win, none of you can bother me again."
"As for the refund A Cup of Turbid Winementioned, I can give it, but not now. I will return the money to you when I get paid. Please stop harassing me after that."
..."Haha, the woman took the bait!"
The moment Bai Jing agreed, inside a villa in a district of Donghai, a Muscular Man around thirty years old laughed loudly while holding his phone.
"Damn it, you managed to hook her! This woman really has flavor!"
Next to the Muscular Man was the Man with Glasses, whose face was full of envy and jealousy as he cursed under his breath.
Both of their phones displayed Bai Jing's live stream, and their Sound Wave usernames were A Cup of Turbid Wine and Wanderer, respectively.
Who would have thought that the two people currently clashing fiercely in front of Bai Jingactually knew each other!
This scene looked as if Bai Jing had fallen into a trap they had woven... In reality, they were friends, Second-Generation Rich Kids from Donghai who, relying on their money, frequently flirted with female streamers on the Sound Wave platform.
The two of them loved visiting the live streams of new streamers in the same city; these streamers were the easiest to hook, with some being won over by spending a few thousand Yuan.
Because they had played this game so often, their experience was quite extensive.
Female streamers who had an explicit price tag were taken down with cash.
As for those who couldn't be won over with money, they used this method to trick the female streamers.
To put it simply, one person played the villain, and the other played the good guy.
Finally, the villain would go all out to make things difficult for the streamer, and then the good guy would step out to back her up and, incidentally, display his financial power.
By sacrificing the villain's reputation to elevate the good guy's status, they made the good guy earn a massive wave of goodwill from the streamer, thereby gaining her trust and gradually breaking down her defenses... This was their entire routine.
It looked simple, but it was extremely effective.
The two of them had already conquered several "Wild Horses" using this method.
Hearing his friend's envy, the Muscular Man with the ID [Wanderer] chuckled:
"Relax, would I ever treat you unfairly?"
"Once I get my hands on her, I'll definitely let you share! What kind of relationship do we have, after all!"
"Tsk tsk, don't look at how conservative this woman acts now, as chaste as a Saintess."
"But once you get her, the experience will be incredibly satisfying. Her cooperation level will be extremely high; she'll be willing to go along with anything you want."
"Hehehe, by that time, won't we be able to manipulate her however we want!"
"So, just wait and enjoy it with me!"
A Cup of Turbid Wine, the Man with Glasses, looked at Bai Jing in the live stream with fervent eyes:
"That's good. If I hadn't played the villain to boost your image and goodwill, would you have had a chance to get close to her?"
"Make sure you share quickly when the time comes! Don't forget!"
"Don't worry, we'll enjoy it together, hehe."
...Lin Mo watched everything happening in the live stream, a thoughtful look in his eyes.
Although he hadn't figured out the trick these two were playing, he did see one thing clearly.
This moment might be a crucial juncture for breaking down Bai Jing's psychological defenses.
And it was the opportunity he was looking for.
Respectable Women generally have strong reservations and defenses; they won't allow themselves to be labeled as loose.
Explicitly priced ones are exceptions.
Even if they secretly harbor unspeakable desires and want to seek excitement, they will fiercely suppress those thoughts until they willingly drop their guard.
But as long as you can breach those defenses and leave your mark on her heart, then...
you will experience what it means for her to be proactive and what it means for her to let loose...
And this sense of conquest from gradually winning her over is the most satisfying, truly leaving an endless aftertaste...
"You don't need to refund that small amount of money. If you lose, you have to wear a tank top and black stockings and perform a Breast-Shaking Dance, and apologize to me afterward."
"Don't you love pretending to be reserved? Hmph, I'd like to see how you pretend after you lose!"
Inside 'Little Fish is Obedient's' live stream, A Cup of Turbid Wine responded disdainfully on the microphone.
Both sides were ready, so this 'Grudge Match' PK naturally began.
'Little Fish is Obedient' immediately initiated the PK invitation.
The next second, the Health Bars in both live streams lit up.
At the same time, 'Little Fish is Obedient's' Health Bar surged forward, as A Cup of Turbid Winestarted by sending a Sound Wave No. 1.
'Little Fish is Obedient' made an exaggerated expression and spoke sweetly and flirtatiously:
"Thank you, Good Brother Turbid Wine, you are amazing..."
On this side, Bai Jing immediately muted the opponent's audio and started soliciting votes:
"Please help by liking, and if you have gifts, please help the streamer. Thank you everyone."
Although this was the first time she actively solicited votes in a Grudge Match, the effect was poor. She only received scattered small gifts from Free Rider Fans, not even matching a fraction of the opponent's gifts.
Seeing this situation, Wanderer's face showed a look of triumph.
In this Grudge Match, he was the only one in the live stream who could truly help Bai Jing.
In his account, the Diamonds for several Carnivals were already prepared.
Soon, he would not only turn the tide but also properly display his financial power, instantly earning Bai Jing's gratitude and admiration... This was the final step in their routine: showcasing their wealth.
After all, these streamers only start streaming for money.
If you don't have money, even if you talk until the sky falls, the female streamer won't take you seriously...
Looking at the mature and charming Bai Jing, Wanderer already imagined how Bai Jingwould thank him after he stepped forward to help her when she was most helpless and prevented her from being bullied...
Her defenses against him would drop, and he would seize the opportunity to make his move... Chuckling, the triumph on Wanderer's face deepened. He confidently opened the gift list, ready to give Bai Jing, who had never received a Carnival, a Carnival shock.
Just as he was about to send it, the triumph on his face instantly froze the next second. His eyes widened, and his expression was utterly stunned.
He saw that in Bai Jing's live stream.
Above the screen, the Light Sign displaying the three words 'Carnival' shone like a cluster of stars, instantly lighting up the entire live stream!
[LV9 'Mo' gifted the streamer Carnival ×1!]
Bai Jing's Health Bar instantly crushed the opponent's, surging forward like a rainbow.
A Carnival?
Bai Jing's small mouth was slightly open, and her expression was shock.
One Carnival costs 3,000 Yuan. This was the first Carnival she had received since she started streaming, and the most expensive gift.
And it was actually sent by a newcomer to the live stream?
Not only that, but a Bullet Comment floated across the screen.
Mo: Don't be afraid, I'm here. I won't let you lose.
!!!
"What the f*ck, who ruined my plans!"
Seeing Lin Mo's Bullet Comment, the dumbfounded Wanderer Muscular Man couldn't take it anymore. He was so angry his lungs felt like they would burst, and he threw his head back and let out a furious roar:
"Damn it, those were all my lines!!!"
At this moment, Wanderer felt as uncomfortable as if he had eaten shit.
He had been cultivating this tree for so long, and just as it was about to bear fruit and be harvested, someone else carelessly came along and ate the fruit.
He was clearly about to get his hands on the Exceptional Woman Bai Jing, but someone else had intercepted her!
This kind of frustration was imaginable; it was enough to make someone go mad and spit blood on the spot.
In the live stream, Bai Jing looked at the Bullet Comment Lin Mo sent, and waves rippled through her heart. It had been a long time since anyone had said such words to her.
Thinking of the setbacks she had experienced recently and the ill intentions she had encountered, she felt deeply wronged and bitter.
In fact, Bai Jing's outward strength was all forced. How could a Wealthy Wife who hadn't worked in society for years adapt so quickly to a change in status?
She went from having no worries about food and clothing, shopping and getting beauty treatments every day, to suddenly falling into the mud, almost unable to afford food, and being chased for debts daily.
It could be said that no one could withstand such a huge disparity.
Bai Jing desperately longed internally to return to the leisurely life of a Wealthy Wife.
She had suffered enough torment from all sides of pressure; she was just holding on by a thread now.
Thinking of the leisurely life of a Wealthy Wife in the past, Bai Jing secretly sighed internally: As a woman, how happy it would be to have a man stand in front of her to shelter her from the wind and rain... For no reason, Bai Jing felt a strong sense of security from 'Mo'.
Uncharacteristically, she stood up, bowed toward the camera, smiled charmingly, and thanked him softly and gently:
"Thank you, 'Mo', for the Carnival. Thank you for stepping forward to support me when I was being bullied. I am truly grateful."
Hearing Bai Jing's thanks, Lin Mo smiled. He had seized this opportunity perfectly; his goal was achieved.
Since he had just earned a wave of goodwill, the next step was naturally to push forward and start his conquest.
[LV27 'Mo' gifted the streamer Carnival ×20!]
Bai Jing had just sat down when her beautiful eyes widened again. She opened her pink, tender mouth in surprise, and her dumbfounded expression revealed a hint of the unique cuteness of a mature woman.
Seeing her shocked appearance, Lin Mo's eyes grew fervent.
He knew that Bai Jing was currently extremely short on money.
Being short on money is good!
Since she's streaming for money... then let's show her the money and display the financial power!
Bai Jing might not feel anything right now, but when she cashes out her live stream earnings, she will realize the difference.
A single live stream could earn her more than her monthly salary!
That huge disparity and the thrill of earning quick money would rapidly inflate one's vanity, making it impossible to go back... And in order to maintain this state of 'easy money,' the bottom line she held onto would inevitably be lowered and breached!
"Only by pleasing Big Brother and making Big Brother happy can I earn money easily."
Lin Mo wanted to implant this idea into the mind of the conservative and reserved Bai Jing!
Using money to break her backbone and destroy her conservative reservation!
With Lin Mo's assistance, the Grudge Match was undoubtedly a victory for Bai Jing.
As soon as the PK ended, the opposing female streamer and A Cup of Turbid Wine, who had been incredibly arrogant moments before, didn't dare utter a sound and fled in panic.
Seeing their cowardly and pathetic retreat, Bai Jingbeamed with delight, and her favorable impression of Lin Mo rose another notch.
Meanwhile, Wanderer, the Muscular Man whose peach had been snatched by Lin Mo in front of his face, also snapped back to reality. His face was gloomy, and he felt suffocated and miserable.
Everything was over. Not only did he fail to send the Carnival gifts he had prepared, but he didn't even send a single word of support or comfort to Bai Jing.
How would others, and how would Bai Jing, view him?
Before the PK started, he swore, 'I won't let you lose,' yet he showed no sign of action until the PK ended, purely watching the show in the live stream.
What kind of behavior was that? Wasn't it blatant mockery of Bai Jing!
It was over, everything was over!
The goodwill he had built up over the past few days was completely ruined.
From now on, there was no need for him to show up around Bai Jing.
It was all the fault of this damned "Mo"! He didn't just steal my script; he also snatched the prey I was about to claim!
The Wanderer Muscular Man grew angrier the more he thought about it, smashing his phone to pieces with a loud "smash"... Lin Mo naturally didn't know that his actions had stolen the highlight moment from someone else's script.
But even if he knew, he wouldn't care. They were just one or two Clowns, what did they count for?
He was determined to win Bai Jing.
Because—only by conquering Bai Jing could that bold idea in Lin Mo's heart be realized!
Without Bai Jing, it wouldn't be fun anymore...
