“How did you learn I’m a live-streamer?” Liu Man sent over a curious emoji.

“One of my clients showed me the video of you exposing fake cat food dealers. Although I didn’t see your face, I knew your voice, so I recognized you.”

It was nothing for someone she knew in real life to watch her live-streams. But after realizing Yu Zhan saw how angry she was when she exposed those dealers, Liu Man felt a bit embarrassed. Even though she knew Yu Zhan, on the other side of the screen, couldn’t see her, her face still blushed unconsciously.

“I didn’t expect my live-stream to go so popular when I did it.”

“You did a great job.”

Yu Zhan’s compliment made Liu Man feel happy. She did not expect him to send the next message,

“You directly made me have three times my usual work amount after your live-stream. I was so busy,” He even added a laughing emoji.

Liu Man was speechless. Was she supposed to apologize? But more work meant more money, so that would be a good thing. That was why he had the money to spam her so many gifts, so there was nothing wrong with what she did, right?

Or else, she would’ve felt uncomfortable receiving so much money from Yu Zhan.

“It was relaxing for me to watch your live-streams, so I conveniently sent you some gifts. It was not much money, so don’t feel bad.”

Liu Man was helpless. Yu Zhan knew what she was thinking every single time as if he was living in her brain. She admitted that it was a bad simile, but that was the truth.

“And your calligraphy work is very good, anyway. I already found someone to frame it so I could hang it up in my living room.”

As he sent that message, Yu Zhan turned on his front camera and sent over a picture of his living room.

When Yu Zhan “bought” Liu Man’s ‘The Untrammeled Traveler,’ which contained 1,982 words, he put the two large rice papers into a solid wooden frame. It took up the entire wall behind his couch.

The design of Yu Zhan’s house was in a northern European style of black and white: gray floor, white walls, and a black couch. Among such a western-styled place, there was now a piece of calligraphy in the style of the Han Dynasty, but they seemed very compatible. The calligraphy itself was in black and white and matched the designs of Yu Zhan’s house. Anyone who saw his living room would think the owner had a good taste.

To stop Liu Man from worrying, Yu Zhan even uploaded this photo onto Wei Bo.

“Woah, woah, woah. This is the calligraphy work our Vet God bought with 100 Fairytale Carriages?”

“The entire room looks different from that calligraphy. He has such a high taste!”

“The vet’s house looks so stylish…”

“When I watched our princess write this piece, I only thought she was exceedingly good at it. Now when I look at it after it got framed… I only want to say: it’s godly!”

“Yeah. The handwriting and this format, it doesn’t look like the work of a young girl at all. This looks like it’s from a professional calligraphist!”

“Not even professional calligraphists know how to write seal characters, though.”

“When I first watched the live-streamer pick up her brush, I thought she was a fraud pretending to be good. Later on, she showed a level of professionalism. But now, evidence shows, she’s not a professional; she’s a goddess. I’m kneeling out of admiration.”

“As a student who studied calligraphy in high school, I’m telling you guys the seal characters are the hardest ones to learn, no matter if they are the lesser ones or not. The main point is, the live-streamer also wrote her piece in many other styles that are more ancient, and we’ve never even seen them before. I don’t even know if my teacher would recognize them. I feel like it’s from Shang Zhou Dynasty…”

“66666666666.”

TL’s Note: Chinese say 666 when they are impressed, as mentioned before in a .

“666666666666666666666…”

“Although I’ve already expressed my deep admiration in live-streams, I don’t mind expressing it again…”

“From now on, even if y’all say our live-streamer knows how to write in oracle, I won’t feel surprised.”

…

Just one photo from Yu Zhan boosted the popularity of his and Liu Man’s Wei Bo again. Many reposted his picture with a message saying, “Can you guys believe this was written by a girl who’s still in college? The most important point is, she’s a piano major!”

“I also bought our princess’s work. I’m going to show it to you guys, too!” An account named “Quick, call me bro!” commented down below.

A few minutes later, “Quick, call me bro!” posted a Wei Bo. The attachment was also a photo of his living room along with, “This is what I bought from Princess Man. Look, isn’t it brilliant?”

“Quick, call me bro!” spent thirty Fairytale Carriages for this piece of calligraphy from Liu Man. It was obvious he was also rich. From the photo, the decorations in his house were all shiny and golden. There was a huge crystal chandelier, and the floor was made from marbles. There were even a few European-styled beams in the living room.

In the middle of the living room was a super luxurious, white couch that looked as if it belonged in a palace. Liu Man’s work was hung up behind the couch, although the frame was different from Yu Zhan’s. “Quick, call me bro!” used a pure gold frame, and it looked very flaunty and shiny.

“It does look brilliant! My eyes are going blind from all this gold.”

“Rich dude, I’ve followed you. From now on, I’ll be your apprentice!”

“This is surprising… Her work looks compatible even with flaunty styles.”

“This is why our live-streamer’s calligraphy is so good. It can match almost any style.”

…

Otaku Boy stayed up all night playing video games, and right now, he was still sleeping in his bed. Princess Man’s work, which she gifted him, was hung up on the walls of his bedroom, which he framed with a lot of his allowance so he could admire it every single day. At this time, Otaku Boy’s phone started to ring. He impatiently crawled up from his bed, reached arduously for his phone, and picked up.

“What the heck, are you crazy? Why are you calling me so early in the morning?” The teenager hollered at his phone.

On the other side of the call was roommate B, who was used to getting up early. Roommate B laughed coldly, “Quick, get on Wei Bo. Your amazing Princess Man has made the leaderboard again.”

TL’s Note: Making it onto Wei Bo’s leaderboard means Liu Man’s account was commonly searched by people and it was getting very popular for the moment. Do note that she’s not completely famous because the leaderboard updates every ten minutes.

The words “Princess Man” were enough to wake Otaku Boy up. He hastily logged onto Wei Bo and saw the hyped fans of Princess Man. The few rich ones were showing off her calligraphy works they bought while others were commenting and dropping likes crazily.

Everyone was doing all they could to get Princess Man popular. Before, she only had little more than forty-thousand fans. Now, she had forty-six thousand fans, and the numbers were still increasing.

He also had Princess Man’s calligraphy work. He was able to brag about it, too!

Otaku Boy, without any hesitation, took a photo of his bedroom and uploaded it onto Wei Bo.

“This piece from sis is the best because the words came from her heart, and it’s complimentary.”

Otaku Boy was an admin of Liu Man’s live-streams, which was why many fans also followed his Wei Bo. Everyone commented with half jealousy and half admiration, “You, pleb, are showing off, too?”

“You can’t say it like that. He’s a student from the Capital City University and an exceedingly good one at that.”

“I’m just feeling unbalanced; Princess Man is giving him special treatment.”

“He’s one of the old fans, and he’s also a manager, so of course, he receives special treatment.”

“Doesn’t that prove Princess is not someone who only gives her work to rich people?”

“Of course. We all love her, so she must have good morality.”

Because Otaku Boy participated in a lot of clubs, he had followed many professors and students from the art major.

One of the sophisticated, old professors saw the picture he posted and was very interested. Unfortunately, it was winter break, and it was hard to contact Otaku Boy. The professor decided to ask this student everything about that piece as soon as the break ends.
