From Wage Slave to Tycoon

"Mr. Su, dinner is ready!"

Su Chen, who was lying on the sofa, sat up. "Where’s Su Qingya? Hasn’t she come down yet?"

"Miss is still in her room. I’ll go get her!"

"Mm." Su Chen nodded slightly, but then something occurred to him, and he called out to Aunt Tang. "Qingya might be livestreaming. If you knock and she doesn’t answer, just go on in."

Aunt Tang was taken aback to hear that Su Qingya was livestreaming. ’They’re so wealthy, why would she do something as "low-class" as livestreaming?’

Despite her thoughts, Aunt Tang still hurried upstairs.

KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK~

KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK~

She knocked several times but heard no reply from Su Qingya.

So, she pushed the door open and went inside.

In the small study adjacent to the bedroom, she saw Su Qingya wearing a headset, chattering away with a happy look on her face.

Just then, Su Qingya noticed Aunt Tang standing in the doorway. She took off her headset and asked, "Aunt Tang, what is it?"

"Miss, the young master sent me to call you down for dinner."

"Got it. I’ll be right there."

Su Qingya was completely oblivious. The moment Aunt Tang said the word "Miss," her stream’s chat room exploded.

The six or seven hundred viewers still in the stream began frantically typing.

"Guys~ Did I hear that right? Someone just addressed the streamer as ’Miss’?? She couldn’t be from a rich family, could she?!"

"That woman who just spoke must be her housekeeper, calling her down for dinner... Oh my god! Don’t tell me our streamer lives in a mansion!"

"Look at her IP location, it’s Shanghai! Shanghai! That just about proves it!"

"She really is a hidden gem. Even the rich kids are working this hard to make money, while us corporate drones are just slacking off. What a disgrace!" 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

"I can’t believe my only connection to the world of the super-rich is a streamer!"

By the time Su Qingya looked back at her screen, it was completely flooded with comments.

Su Qingya glanced at the flood of comments but didn’t pay much attention to what they were saying.

"Everyone, I’m going to eat now, so that’s all for today’s stream. I might go live again tonight if I feel like it!" With that, Su Qingya shut down the stream.

Many viewers were left dumbfounded. How could she just up and leave like that, leaving hundreds of people hanging? The nerve!

"Guys, I’ve discovered a huge secret!!"

"Huge secret? How huge? Are we talking D or E?"

"Ahem~ Well, if it’s *that* huge, I wouldn’t mind taking a look!!"

"You bunch of pervs. I found a photo on the streamer’s YuBar... You guys know where this is?"

As soon as he said that, the viewers still lingering in the stream flooded her YuBar.

Looking at the single night-view photo on the YuBar, anyone with a keen eye could recognize it instantly.

"Holy crap! Isn’t that the night view of the Huangpu River and the Bund? The only places you can take a picture like that are Tomson Riviera and One Sheshan!"

"Tomson Riviera? One Sheshan? No way... Someone who lives in a luxury apartment on that level is livestreaming for fun? I don’t believe it!"

The chat was a storm of different opinions, until a single comment silenced the debate.

"Guys, have you noticed? You can vaguely see the streamer’s silhouette in the reflection on the glass. It’s not super clear, but you can still make out her figure!"

Soon, the popularity of "ItsQingyaaa"’s YuBar shot to the top of the Douyu charts. More and more people started showing up to see what the fuss was about.

Her follower count quickly surpassed ten thousand! And the hype just kept growing.

It was a perfect case of accidental success.

"Brother~ I have some good news for you!" Su Qingya said, sidling up to Su Chen with a mysterious expression.

Su Chen swallowed the bite of sweet and sour pork ribs in his mouth before asking with feigned curiosity, "What good news? Don’t tell me your stream is finally taking off?"

Su Qingya nodded frantically, her head bobbing up and down like she was pounding garlic.

"Uh-huh! I ran into this whale this afternoon who gifted me ten Super Rockets! That’s twenty thousand yuan! I have over a thousand followers now. What do you think... pretty amazing, right?!"

Su Qingya stood with her hands on her hips, looking smug. Her expression practically screamed, ’Hurry up and praise me!’

Seeing her expression, a mischievous grin spread across Su Chen’s face. "Oh? And was this ’whale’ of yours named ’Unrivaled’? And did he, by any chance, make a certain pretty streamer sing ’Song of the Pig’?"

Su Qingya froze at his words, staring blankly at Su Chen. All her previous smugness had vanished without a trace.

"Ahhh! You jerk! You’re ’Unrivaled’! I’m so mad at you! You even made me sing ’Song of the Pig’!!!" Su Qingya rushed over to Su Chen and began pummeling him with her small fists.

In the kitchen, Aunt Tang, who was cleaning up, smiled as she watched the two siblings playfully fighting.

"What’s the matter? See? As soon as I dropped those ten Super Rockets, people started showing up, didn’t they?"

"Keep hitting me, and I’ll eat all the good stuff!"

Su Chen held her little head at bay with his left hand, while his right hand didn’t miss the chance to grab another pork rib.

At his words, Su Qingya glanced at the feast on the table. Smelling the delicious aroma, she couldn’t help but gulp. "Hmph! For the sake of dinner, I’ll forgive you!"

She picked up her bowl and began to wolf down her food, muttering between bites, "You stupid brother... I’ll chew you up!"

Perhaps she was channeling her indignation into her appetite, because Su Qingya ended up eating more than half of all the dishes on the table. She even polished off three bowls of rice, leaving Su Chen completely dumbfounded.

"Ahh, Aunt Tang’s cooking is so delicious! I’m so stuffed!" Su Qingya said with a look of pure bliss, leaning back against the sofa.

"If you keep eating like that every day, you’ll turn into a little piggy sooner or later!"

"You’re the little piggy!" Su Qingya retorted, though she still began to examine her own figure.

She patted her sides and looked herself over, starting to think she really had put on a little weight.

In the battle between delicious food and being beautiful, she ultimately chose beauty.

"Starting tomorrow, I’m only eating one small bowl of rice per meal, and I’m going to work out for two hours every day!"

As if to psych herself up, Su Qingya stood up from the sofa and marched toward the home gym.

But her resolve lasted all of three minutes. A short while later, Su Chen saw her quietly sneak out of the gym and head upstairs.

She tiptoed, thinking Su Chen hadn’t seen her.

But her every move was perfectly reflected in the living room’s floor-to-ceiling windows. Su Chen just decided not to call her out on it.

Back in her bedroom, Su Qingya went straight to the small study. When she opened her stream client, she was completely stunned.

"Units... tens... hundreds... thousands... ten thousands! 46,852! My followers went up by over forty thousand while I was eating dinner? What is happening?"

Su Qingya quickly figured out the cause and effect. ’So it was all because of that night-view photo I posted.’

Having found the reason, Su Qingya thought for a moment before posting several more scenic photos to her YuBar. This time, however, she included daytime views in addition to nightscapes, all taken from different angles.

’Hmph, hmph. You stupid brother,’ she thought with a smirk. ’Just watch how I’m going to blow your mind!’
