Chapter 86 Battle of the Rankings
Given the heroine's kind and gentle nature, she might actually believe it.
After all, information online has been processed through multiple layers, and its authenticity is not entirely reliable.
And that's just how people are.
Once you actually get to know them, you'll find them alright, especially if they're just trying to act like a nice person in front of you.
After all, you can say whatever you want online, and others can't just call you through the internet.
In real life, if someone is really that bad at interpersonal relationships and happens to run into a short-tempered person, it could turn into a real-life Kombat.
But anyway, since the female lead wants to talk about this, let's have a proper conversation.
What's the point of saying only half of what you meant?
Shu Hua remained silent, simply looking directly at Tao Zhiming through the camera lens, waiting for her to continue.
Tao Zhiming looked at Shu Hua's expressionless face and assumed that Shu Hua was unhappy.
That's true, the other person came here to compete, but she came up to chat with them instead.
It may indeed be somewhat inappropriate.
But she remembered that Shu Hua didn't like playing PvP, so she thought she could talk to someone instead.
She was wrong.
Tao Zhiming immediately apologized, "I'm sorry, I said something inappropriate."
"You want to compete on the overall leaderboard? Let's begin."
Shu Hua: "???"
Shu Hua was really driven to the brink of exasperation by the female lead; she genuinely had no temper whatsoever with her today.
But why does the female lead always seem like she's the one who's bullying others?
No, if you know it's an inappropriate digression, you shouldn't have said it in the first place.
Since you've already said half of it, just finish it.
Do you think you should only say half of what you mean and then apologize?
Wouldn't it be better to apologize after you've finished speaking?
It's not good.
On the contrary, it makes people feel frustrated and more likely to get angry.
In other words, Shu Hua wasn't too curious about this matter, otherwise she would really be angry now.
What's wrong with this female lead? Has she been influenced by spending too much time with that evening breeze?
It's not nearly as cute as it was in the book.
However, it's best to get rid of people who make you unhappy as soon as possible.
Shu Hua didn't intend to offer any opinions, otherwise it would only prolong the process.
She nodded indifferently. "Okay, let's begin."
Shu Hua started the PK mode, "Let's mute our microphones then."
As soon as she turned off her microphone, Shu Hua looked completely exhausted and gave up, collapsing onto the sofa with a sigh.
Who would have thought that even the female lead would open a bad blind box?
[Tao Tao was only halfway through speaking when my fist clenched!! There's a misunderstanding, at least finish what you were saying!!!]
[During the last four-person PK, Wanfeng cried after Huazai disconnected, saying that Huazai misunderstood her as having a black-and-white persona.]
[So last time Tao Tao believed Wan Feng's tearful complaints and wanted to find Hua Zai?]
Why are you looking for Huazai? Explain?
[Judging from his questioning attitude from the start today, it seems more like he wants Huazai to apologize to someone than to explain, right?]
[You just hung up the phone, but she cried.jpg]
[Uh... disconnecting after a PK, isn't that normal? Why do you have to follow up on that?]
[Now the whole story is out, proving that Huazai wasn't wrong after all; Wanfeng lied during the truth-or-dare game. Isn't it normal for Huazai to be unhappy?]
There's nothing I can do (shrugs). Whoever is weaker is right.
[Exactly, look, here comes another 'saintly' trying to seek justice for the weak.]
[It suddenly occurred to me, if Huazai hadn't won the last competition, given Taotao's current behavior of believing Wanfeng even after all the gossip has been revealed, wouldn't Huazai have been forced to apologize?]
Believe it or not, it's actually quite possible.
[This is terrifying to think about! But then again, does that mean my little painter isn't weak? Won't Tao Tao come and fight for justice for my fragile painter?]
Wow, this could be turned into an infinite loop!
No, the person upstairs is naive. That Wanfeng is a schoolmate of Tao Tao's; he would privately approach Tao Tao and pretend to be pitiful.
[Oh no, this is a real-world buff.]
[So, does that mean Wanfeng is still determined to use Taotao as a tool to clear her name?]
[The evening breeze probably thinks this way: Tao Tao doesn't see herself as a tool; she sees herself as a champion of justice.]
[This is terrifying to think about! If they lose this round, the drawing boy will still be forced to apologize, right?]
[Oh wow, you're absolutely right!]
It's alright, Dad's here today, he won't let Huazai lose.
[But I remember Tao Tao's eldest sister recently came back. Didn't she have a max-level account before?]
[Idle Clouds and Wild Cranes: The previous max-level account was borrowed; it's gone now.]
[What inside information does Mr. He know? Let me hear it.]
[Can I borrow a max-level account? Aren't there only a few musical notes in total?]
[As expected, the title of "Rookie King of the Nuclear Power Plant" wasn't given lightly. This guy has impressive connections; he even managed to borrow a max-level account.]
[Life is but a dream: Hahahaha!]
【Wait, Mr. Meng, what are you laughing at again?】
Lately, the older guys have been acting all secretive and haven't been including us.
[Exactly, exactly, pointing fingers and giving orders!]
[He's the boss, why should he let you hang out with him? (picks nose)]
It turns out I'm not worthy (because I'm weak)
[Black Cleaver Fragment: Huh? You guys didn't know? That account was borrowed by Crane Young Master.]
[Life is but a dream: Even the person who logged in was He Shao.]
[Idle Clouds and Wild Cranes: ...]
【？？？？？？？？？？？】
Is this correct?
Is this wrong?
I don't know!
[What's right or wrong about matters between big shots?]
[Exactly, so could Mr. He borrow the account again?]
[+1, I want to see two max-level accounts drawing special effects raining down in the live stream.]
【No, don't you guys think Dad looks even more amazing now?】
[Dad's max-level account is his own, and it was leveled up at rocket speed.]
Now that you mention it, oh yeah, even CEO He could only borrow... wow!
[Now I understand once again how arrogant those who draw cards can be, especially when they have powerful backers!]
[I think even the artists have toned it down. If it were me, I'd be out there every day, leaving nothing but desolation!]
Protecting flowers and plants is everyone's responsibility!
I'm sorry, it was not environmentally friendly enough. I will reflect on it.
Although Shu Hua was lounging lazily on the sofa, her eyesight was excellent, and she could still see the comments section.
Just as she guessed, the female lead was there to stand up for her classmate.
Seeing the comments section speculating that if she had lost last time, she would have been forced to apologize, gave me goosebumps.
Good heavens, the female lead suddenly ranked higher last time, and that was her plan.
Can you even force someone to apologize?
She definitely can't lose today, otherwise the punishment might just be recording some kind of apology video.
She still has a fighting spirit; if she really loses, she won't cheat.
Thinking this, Shu Hua suddenly felt a sense of crisis.
If it were someone else, she would naturally have her Daddy around, so she wouldn't worry about anything.
But who can blame them when the other side is the female lead? Her best trick is to have a super-rich tycoon appear out of nowhere.
Shu Hua sat up abruptly, no longer slouching, and shouted anxiously at the camera, "Daddy, get on it! Get on the charts instantly, get on it!"
[Daddy: ? Okay.]
[Daddy, the "Dream Chaser Who Travels Through the Painting Realm," gifted "Eternal Realm" (199999 Sound Coins) x10...x30...x20... during his livestream "Dream Chaser Who Travels Through the Painting Realm"]
【Life is but a dream: ? Okay.】
[The streamer "Floating Life Like a Dream" in the live stream "Dream Weaver Who Travels Through the Painting Realm" gave away "Carnival" gifts (50000 Sound Coins) x10...x30...]
[Black Cleaver Shard: ? Okay.]
[The "Black Cleaver Shard" streamer "Dream Weaver" gifted 10...30...50 "Carnival" coins (50000 Sound Coins) each to the "Carnival Shard" streamer.]
[Idle Clouds and Wild Cranes: ? Okay.]
[“Xianyun Yehe” in the live stream “Wandering Dreamers Through the Painting Realm” gave away “Carnival” (50000 Audio Coins) x10...x30...]
【？？？？？？？】
What happened? Why did it suddenly turn into a full-blown offensive from the very beginning?
[Top? What top? They're all my tops (wink)]
[What made Hua Zai suddenly sit up in shock just now?]
[I have no idea what the artist's thought process is like, dddd.]
[No, Dad should agree. Why are the other brothers just repeating the same thing over and over?]
[Exactly! This is taking advantage of the artist!]
[I treated you like an older brother, but you want to be my father.jpg]
[@DrawingManager, you've already reached the top, how come you're slacking off? You'll have your salary docked!]
[Drawing Assistant: I'm just a lowly working person! Do you think I dare answer "Dad"?]
Oh, okay, that's true then. We won't deduct your salary this time.
[Deduct it next time.]
[Drawing Assistant: ??? Is this human language? ???]
[Didn't anyone see Dad's doting attitude, even though he didn't understand it?]
【I saw it!!! Can't I have another dad?】
【son.】
【My daughter.】
【roll!】
[Report! Hua Zai is really clever! The other side also wanted to steal the tower and quickly climb the leaderboard, but we beat them to it!!!]
【？？？？？？？】
[Quickly retract it, don't let Huazai see it, she'll get smug!]
【ah?????】
【What?! Retract it now!】
But, Huazai's smugness is so cute, just like my Mimi. Speaking of Mimi, she's snuggling in my arms right now, so clingy!
[Who asked that? I'm telling you, who asked that?!]
[Does anyone know if they bathed in water infested with rats?]
Can't I use catnip?
You don't deserve it.
[Sobbing.]
[Waaaaah, you little rascal!]
Shu Hua initially thought the others were just joining the group immediately, but after reading the comments, she realized that these guys actually wanted to be her dad.
That won't do. She's Daddy's most obedient daughter and doesn't recognize any other fathers.
Just as I was about to tell the guys to stop, I saw the intelligence report.
What? The female lead also wants to top the rankings?
This isn't like the female lead at all. Wasn't she the one who felt pressured to give gifts to her older brothers?
They actually did something like instantly ranking high.
Then it dawned on her: wouldn't that make her a prophet?
Wow, she's amazing!
Shu Hua: "Wow, did I just predict the future?"
Is it, is it, is it?
How am I so amazing?
In a flash of inspiration, he actually cracked the enemy's tactics.
Wow, how can a person be so clever and quick-witted?
Wow, wow, I'm so amazing!
Shu Hua covered her face and kept showing off, being narcissistic.
He didn't even mention telling the guys to stop. Let it be a misunderstanding. It was just a joke. Winning is the most important thing.
Moreover, she suddenly discovered an advantage.
Originally, she was a little conflicted about what the Bureau of Process should do later.
If we're really going to focus on the process, then the female lead should be able to talk, so there's bound to be some chatting involved, right?
That's why she thought she might as well just top the charts instantly.
That way, she won't be affected by the strange female lead.
Who knows what other strange things the female lead might do?
What if you only say half of what you're saying?
She's not curious about this one, but what if she's curious about the next one?
Wouldn't that mean she'd have to bow down to the female lead? How humiliating would that be?
Therefore, it would be best not to let the female lead speak in the first place.
The situation has changed a little, but the result remains the same.
With both sides focused on the rankings, the battle was tense, and the female lead probably wasn't in the mood to talk.
【What did I say! She's really getting cocky, isn't she? (So cute, I'm taking tons of screenshots)】
【What did I say! Cats being smug is just so cute!】
【What did I say! I didn't say anything.】
One minute has passed, and it should have been a normal game, but both sides are frantically sending gifts in an attempt to top the leaderboard.
These figures are also very close.
Shu Hua is currently in the lead, but Tao Tao's family is closely following.
Shu Hua: "Since we all want to be on the leaderboard in seconds, let's just wait for the results. Let's keep the microphones off during the process and do our best."
Otherwise, I don't want you to overtake me right after I give the instructions; then all my instructions would have been for nothing.
Tao Zhiming looked at the scores on both sides and saw that Shu Hua was still in the lead, albeit by a considerable margin.
This time, however, it was only after Sister Bone had enlisted the help of other family members.
However, they still couldn't surpass Shu Hua. Even though Shu Hua started earlier than them, it's clear that there's a gap in strength between the two families.
Moreover, Tao Tao still felt a bit guilty because this time she was using Sister Gu's favor.
Originally, the requirements for quickly ranking up in a one-on-one PK are not too high.
Tao Zhiming originally thought that she could take the lead by surprise and top the list with the smallest amount, so that the burden on her older brothers and sisters would not be too heavy.
Unexpectedly, Shu Hua had the same idea.
Tao Zhiming was starting to have second thoughts; maybe she should just give up this time.
Tao Zhiming's expression was very easy to understand. In the live stream, Sister Gu sent a message directly, not allowing her to back down.
She was determined to fight to the bitter end, so she made Tao Zhiming mute herself and went straight into a pure fight.
Tao Ziming opened her mouth, but finally nodded, "Okay..."
Although Shu Hua didn't know what the female lead had been struggling with, as long as the result was what she wanted, she said, "OK, then we can just wait for the 10-minute PK to end and the results to be calculated."
I'm muting my microphone.
[The "Drawing Assistant" in the live stream "Dream Walker Traveling Through the Art World" is giving away "Carnival" gifts (50000 Audio Coins) x10...x30...]
Since both sides are now competing for the top spot, the little manager seized the opportunity and suddenly joined in, hoping to catch the other side off guard.
She even relaxed her fingers first before doing so.
