Hiding Behind Her Superficiality -
Chapter 215
Chapter 215
Elspeth followed Callum to a place that Michael could never have thought about.
In FX Club, Kenneth looked at her cheery face and shrank backward. “So, you decided to come to myplace?”
“Kenneth, we’re buddies, aren’t we? You won’t leave me alone, right?” Elspeth blinked her eyes pitifully.
“The thing is, Grandpa will kill me if he replaces out.”
Although Kenneth was unwilling to visit home usually, he still feared Michael.
“Don’t worry, I won’t sell you out.”
At the moment, this club was the safest place for them. As long as they escaped Michael’s search, theywould be able to solve this matter when the storm subsided after some time.
When Birdy and the others who had played with her previously saw Elspeth, they were elated.“Elspeth, don’t leave now that you’re here and stay in our team. Trust me, you’ll go viral,” Birdysuggested with a grin.
Carrot nodded and took out his phone. “Miss Idol, I’ve been livestreaming recently. After you left, Igained a few thousand more followers. I think I’m close to a million followers!”
Elspeth chortled. “Livestreaming? What for?”
“Well, not only can you interact with your fans through livestreaming, but you can also… earn money!”
Susy gave him a playful slap on the arm. “Don’t listen to him. He doesn’t even earn that much.”
The group was just chatting when Elspeth received a call from Harper all of a sudden.
“Bad news, Elspeth! The company’s in trouble!”
Harper sounded panicked as if he was facing a huge crisis. “The Joneson Corporation is cracking downon our company, and it’s really causing a considerable impact. We’re now facing a shortage of funds.”
“Can’t we take out a loan?”
Harper hesitated before saying, “I did try to take out a loan, but they said that Old Mr. Joneson hadissued an order not to lend any money to Azure Corporation.”
Not to lend any money to Azure Corporation… Elspeth’s brows furrowed. She realized that things hadbecome trickier than she expected.
“Take care of things first and appease the staff. As for the money, I’ll come up with a solution.”
After hanging up, she looked at Callum and sighed. He planned for her to go under the radar for sometime, but his idea was rejected.
“Why should I hide? I will show myself to everyone as I like.”
Although Callum was taken aback, he could understand. After all, this was Elspeth’s way of dealingwith things.
“Then, what are you planning to do?”
Elspeth didn’t answer immediately but turned her gaze to Carrot instead, her lips curling into a smile.
“Start a livestream.”
Upon hearing the word livestream, Carrot instantly sprung up from his seat. “Elspeth, you’re gonnalivestream?”
“Yeah. My company is in debt now, and we can’t take out a loan, so I can only try livestreaming.”
“That’s great! I’ll teach you!”
However, Elspeth shook her head. “No need for that. I have an account.”
Just as Carrot was looking at her in confusion, Elspeth logged into an account with a single word in itsname—Mist. However, after he saw the number of followers, Carrot’s eyes nearly bulged out of hisskull.
“Eight million?!”
He had a slight recollection of this streamer. She never showed her face, but her voice wasexceptionally pleasing to the ear. Her streaming activities included chatting with her audience, playinggames, and posting vlogs. Either way, she was engaged in various fields. However, just by relying onthe variety of genres she offered, she managed to gain eight million followers in one fell swoop,becoming the most popular internet celebrity at the time, and just her account alone fetched a price of100 million.
“You’re Mist?” Carrot’s eyes gleamed as he said, “You can make up for your company’s losses just byselling your account, much less livestreaming. You can definitely do this, Miss Idol!”
However, Kenneth became conflicted. “If you start a livestream, won’t you easily expose that you’re atmy place?”
Elspeth curled her lips into a smile. “Don’t worry, I don’t show my face in my livestreams, so they won’tbe able to replace me. Besides, not many people know it’s me.”
A corner of Callum’s lips twitched. “Yes, even I had no idea when I spend day and night with you.”
When she turned around and saw Callum’s conflicted gaze, Elspeth laughed dryly. “I just didn’t havetime to tell you. You know how many identities I have.”
After everything he’d been through, Callum had long since gotten used to her multiple identities.
“Okay, since it’s a livestream, let’s make it nine o’clock tonight. Hm… what should we do for thelivestream?”
Before Elspeth could come up with an idea, Carrot immediately shot to his feet. “Video games!”
He had a point. Streaming games was a good idea while they were in the club.
Elspeth smiled. “Sure. In that case, I have a plan.”
As soon as she said that, she turned her attention to Kenneth and smiled eerily at him.
“Why are you looking at me?”
“The theme of our livestream tonight is to challenge all the members of FX Club.”
Kenneth’s eyes widened. “Are you seriously going to fight all the members of FX Club?”
Elspeth was picking her ears. “What’s wrong? Is that bad? Right, Kenneth, you’ll be the last one, or I’mafraid that they won’t fight me.”
Kenneth was rendered speechless. However, now that things had come to this, he had no other choicebut to helplessly agree to her plan.
He posted it in the club’s public group chat, and as soon as he was done, the club members wereabuzz with excitement. The live challenge sounded thrilling just from the thought of it. In particular,
those who were curious about Elspeth’s real skills were rubbing their fists together, wanting to competewith her.
Once the clock struck nine, the livestream started. As Elspeth looked at the rapidly rising number ofviewers, she slowly curled her lips into a smile. Within minutes, there were already a hundred thousandviewers.
Once a sizable crowd had gathered, Elspeth’s sweet voice sounded from the livestream.
“Hello, everyone! So nice to meet all of you here! Today, I’m starting this livestream just to host a smalllittle challenge. Enjoy the show and give some gifts if you can.”
The moment she finished speaking, the viewers immediately began buying her gifts.
‘Mist, will you give me your number if I give you thirty Universes?’
Elspeth laughed sultrily. “Sir, if you give me a hundred, I’ll tell you whether I’ll give it to you.”
‘Hahahaha!’
The chat was filled with laughter at her words.
“Okay, let’s cut to the chase and start the challenge.”
Elspeth looked at the first person who challenged her and quietly judged them for being an unrankedplayer.
‘Miss Elspeth, I’m a huge fan of yours. You’re so good at playing Daphne. Can I play a round againstyou?’
Elspeth laughed. “Of course, you can.”
After decisively selecting Daphne and joining the game, Elspeth was surprised to see that the personhad also picked the same character. All of a sudden, the game turned interesting as the two samecharacters fought against each other.
Soon, the number of concurrent viewers reached three hundred thousand.
