However, this incident made Jiang Shi realize that just posting the statement wasn’t enough.
Yuan Yang’s solution was for TLG to officially announce Jiang Shi’s livestream schedule the next day, set for 8 PM this Saturday, three days later.
This would prevent the fans from clashing in his teammates’ livestreams and also channel the recent surge of attention directly to Jiang Shi.
Yuan Yang’s suggestion made Jiang Shi’s eyes light up.
He could do a livestream using his “Time” account!
Not only could he explain everything to his fans face-to-face, but he could also have a proper “farewell” with them before the account was deactivated.
After all, once he donned the “Obedient Jiangjiang” persona, he would attract a different kind of fanbase—cute and fluffy ones, unlike his current hardcore fans.
Yuan Yang, seeing Jiang Shi’s silence, thought he was overwhelmed by recent events and comforted him, “Don’t worry about things getting out of hand. I’ll arrange for professionals to monitor the situation and ensure your first livestream goes smoothly.”
Controversy creates buzz, and Yuan Yang was confident that Jiang Shi’s skills and looks would overshadow any negativity.
After all, Jiang Shi was obedient and knew how to charm people—no one could dislike him.
Though their thoughts weren’t aligned, they somehow reached a consensus.
Yuan Yang, worried about Jiang Shi’s stress, suggested he go home early and rest, which was exactly what Jiang Shi wanted.
To the fans’ surprise, Time’s long-unused livestream channel suddenly went live, with the title:
#Last Livestream#
This was even more explosive than when Jiang Shi had previously titled a stream [When can I sleep with Xu?]
As Jiang Shi was adjusting his microphone, people flooded into the stream.
[What the hell is up with this title?]
[Idiot son, don’t do anything rash.]
[T Bao is definitely joking with us! How could this be the last one?]
[Dang it, if you dare to run, I’ll find you through the internet and drag you back.]
Seeing the comments, Jiang Shi felt a bit sentimental. “I never realized you all love me so much. Dad is very touched.” But then he added, “Now, throw some free gifts and complete your daily tasks.”
He could use these gifts to get some money from the platform!
[Can you give us a straight answer? Stop beating around the bush.]
[The way he’s talking, it really seems like he’s leaving. No way, right?]
[Today’s Weibo post felt off. So now, not only are they forcing T Bao to clarify, but they’re also making him quit streaming?]
[Damn it, stupid TLG! Do they think we’re just going to sit here and take this?!]
Jiang Shi didn’t expect his actions to backfire like this and quickly explained, “I’m only stopping the streams because of some personal issues;,it has nothing to do with TLG. I know the new AD—he’s pretty cute. Didn’t you all say you liked him before? Show some support! It’ll be worth it!”
[I’m really crying to death. Little Idiot, how much injustice have you suffered? It’s your last stream, and you’re still still helping him gain followers.]
[If it weren’t for that unique electric voice of his that no one can imitate, I’d think Time’s account got hacked.]
[Ahhh! So angry! So angry!]
No matter how much Jiang Shi explained, the fans were convinced he was being coerced and wouldn’t listen to reason.
Jiang Shi felt utterly defeated and decided to just go with the flow. “There’s no one born yet who can threaten me! You might as well stick to the idea that Xu seduced me.”
He didn’t even bother streaming any games, just leaned back in his chair and chatted idly with the audience.
“What will I do if I don’t livestream in the future?” Jiang Shi read a question aloud, the answered it, “Obviously, I’ll be living a shameless and peaceful life with Xu. If I have time, I might occasionally share some sweet moments with my husband on Weibo.”
[……]
[How can this guy say something like that in such a serious situation!]
[Sisters, there’s nothing more to say—Time has been pushed to the brink of insanity.]
[He’s beyond saving.]
[If you stop streaming, where will you get the money for your one-on-one time with Xu? Wake up!]
Seeing this comment, Jiang Shi sat up a little straighter. “It’s true, I don’t have much money.”
Just as the fans thought there was a glimmer of hope, Jiang Shi added, “But my husband will take care of me! He just transferred a lot of money to me as pocket money a few days ago.”
He was referring to the platform’s gift revenue share.
[What a downfall!]
[It’s over. He really plans to quit streaming. Family members, we need to do something!]
[Bring Xu here!]
[Wait, why is this little idiot’s stream so laggy? I keep getting kicked out.]
[Same here! I thought it was just me, but other streams work fine.]
Jiang Shi then noticed something strange—his stream’s viewer count, which had been around 5000, would suddenly drop to 2000 at certain moments, repeatedly fluctuating and never breaking the 5000 threshold.
He wasn’t foolish and quickly realized what was happening, his expression turning cold. “What’s this? Is the platform’s staff monitoring my stream? Afraid I’ll say something out of line and cause trouble?”
“I warn you, don’t mess with my stream. If you do, I’ll go straight to Weibo and tag your official account to call you out. Don’t believe me? Go ahead and keep blocking my fans.”
Jiang Shi spoke with reckless abandon, knowing that his current popularity and rapidly growing Weibo following would bring massive attention to anything he posted.
The saying “barefoot people aren’t afraid of those wearing shoes” came to mind—he wasn’t afraid of burning bridges with the Little Bear TV.
As soon as he said this, the viewer count in his stream shot up to 10,000.
[Fck, it’s not lagging anymore.]
[So it was the platform staff messing with us?]
[T Bao, you’re really something!]
[Ahhh! If you can stand up to the platform, why can’t you stand up to TLG? How can you let them force you to quit streaming?!]
[Someone needs to talk some sense into him!]
Jiang Shi changed his profile picture and stream background to the original images and then responded, “This has nothing to do with TLG. If we meet again in the future, it’ll be by chance.”
His tone left no room for negotiation.
[You’ve disappointed your Dad too much, I’m unfollowing.]
[I don’t have an unfilial son like you!]
[I’m going to switch to the TLG’s new ADC right now and watch him and Xu live together. You’ll be left crying!]
Jiang Shi took a sip of water to soothe his throat. “Xu plays with the ADC during the day, but at night, he’s all mine. It’s a fair distribution. Why would I cry?”
[You’re that close with the new ADC?]
[Do you two know each other?]
“Since we’re little, we’ve been sharing the same pants1very close relationship. Do you think we have a good relationship?”
Jiang Shi responded to every comment he saw, until the stream returned to the familiar banter-filled atmosphere.
He even had the time to browse through private messages from viewers in the background. One of them was a ten-minute-long voice message. He chuckled, “Why are you guys so clingy? You sent me such long, sappy messages!”
But when he opened it, it was a scream with no warning.
“You little idiot, you’re not allowed to quit streaming, or I’ll cry my eyes out!”
The voice was hoarse, with a sobbing tone, followed by ear-piercing wails that made Jiang Shi immediately shut it off.
He laughed and cried at the same time. “Why are you crying for no reason!”
As soon as he said this, the chat filled with crying face emojis, a sea of watery eyes.
Jiang Shi fell silent for a moment, then sighed. “Are you all really that reluctant to let me go?”
The comments flooded with affirmations.
“Well, in that case, why not send me some gifts and help me climb to the top of the leaderboard one last time?” Jiang Shi shamelessly suggested, “I’ve never been on that list before~”
[……]
[Fck, my sincerity is for nothing!]
[Stupid son, I’m not giving you any gifts! If you stop streaming, you can beg under a bridge for all I care!]
[Get lost!]
Though the fans said this, they showered Jiang Shi with gifts, pushing him to the tail end of the leaderboard.
In this atmosphere, a dazzling special effect flashed across the stream:
[TLG-Xu has joined your stream, welcome~]
[TLG-Xu: Not streaming anymore?]
Jiang Shi responded with a hum, “Got some things to handle in real life.”
Xu remained silent for a moment before continuing.
[TLG-Xu: I thought you really liked this account.]
Jiang Shi didn’t catch the underlying tone. “I’m a bit reluctant, actually.”
Without this account, he wouldn’t have a place to go wild in the future.
Seeing Xu at the top of the viewer list, Jiang Shi’s fox-like eyes narrowed as a thought crossed his mind. There were some things he might not get another chance to do.
He licked his lips and asked, “Will you miss me in the future?”
[TLG-Xu: .]
“That means you will.” Jiang Shi concluded confidently. “I’ll miss you too.”
“Actually, I planned to sleep early, but if you want, I can chat with you a bit more.”
Fans in the chat were quick to poke fun:
[Chat about whether Xu sleeps naked after showering?]
[Why do I feel like this guy is purposefully playing the emotional card to trap Xu?]
[It seems so.]
[Be more confident, drop the ‘seems.’]
Xu seemed oblivious to Jiang Shi’s baiting and replied.
[TLG-Xu: Chat about what?]
Jiang Shi’s beautiful fox eyes narrowed slightly, “Don’t listen to their nonsense. I’m not that indecent.”
Even he laughed after saying that.
“So, you do want to chat with me?”
Without waiting for Xu’s response, Jiang Shi continued, “But I’m feeling a bit sleepy now.”
He even yawned theatrically after saying this.
[TLG-Xu: What should we do then?]
Just as Xu typed [Maybe you should sleep early] into the chat box, but before he could send it, Jiang Shi spoke up.
“Some things can keep a person awake.”
The chat exploded with yellow-faced emojis, urging Xu to escape.
Jiang Shi ignored the comments and cleared his throat, lowering his voice, “You can try seducing me.”
“I can chat with my Gege all night~!”
