C16 Conspiracy

Zhao Qiang left the livestream room discreetly. The million-dollar rewards battle had finally come to a conclusion.

The live broadcast room resembled an empty battlefield after a savage battle. Finally, it became quiet.

"I don't know how to thank you, Mumunaiyi," Xu Murann said. "If you want, you can choose any song, and I'll sing it for you."

Since he was feeling bored as well, Lin Fan replied, "Sure. But I'll leave it up to you to choose the song."

"Okay then." Xu Murann decided on a classic hit.

Soon after she opened her red lips, a soothing voice echoed across the entire live broadcast room.

She sang a heartfelt love song.

There was a commotion in the live broadcast room. Everyone became generous with their rewards, and before long, several small gifts filled the screen.

When Xu Murann saw all this happening, she felt grateful and moved with what Mumunaiyi did.

The live streamer needed someone to help her, especially in quickly getting followers.

Today, Xu Murann's live broadcast got promoted on the platform's main page, thanks to Lin Fan's generous tipping.

Xu Murann wondered what kind of person Mumunaiyi was, so she secretly sent him a WeChat message and eagerly awaited his reply.

"I sent you a message on WeChat, Mumunaiyi. Let me buy you a meal if you have time."

"The goddess is being tempted."

"Murann, please don't leave us!"

Lin Fan smiled helplessly. Still, he wanted to live in peace. His identity would be exposed if he accepted Xu Murann's invitation.

After giving it some thought, he added her to an inconspicuous WeChat account.

"We can discuss it if we're both free later. Bye."

Xu Murann couldn't hide her dissatisfaction and frowned when she saw that Lin Fan didn't seem interested in her offer.

Meanwhile, Zhao Qiang entered a bar and drank a glass of wine while keeping his head down.

He felt dejected since he had taken a lot of blows these last two days. In the bar, there were many girls having a few cocktails.

He came over to one group in search of confidence.

"What's wrong, Zhao Qiang? Why the long face? Who would even dare provoke you without thinking twice?"

Zhao Qiang saw Wu Zihao when he turned in the direction of the voice. They were acquainted with each other because of their background.

In Mingzhou, both of their families had successful businesses. They had more or less talked to each other a couple times while attending the same university.

However, Wu Zihao's family was more powerful than Zhao Qiang's. In the past, whenever he came across Zhao Qiang, Wu Zihao would act haughtily and try to boss him around.

Zhao Qiang, who was used to being revered, felt uneasy about this. As a result, he didn't have a close relationship with Wu Zihao.

"Hey, Hao. What a surprise to see you!" Zhao Qiang nonchalantly replied.

"Yes, long time no see. Let's sit together and talk. I'm meeting some young models later. You can also choose two if you want company," Wu Zihao said nonchalantly.

"Sure!" Zhao Qiang decided after some pondering.

"You don't look too good, Hao. What's up?" Zhao Qiang asked.

"Don't even ask. I was humiliated earlier. Damn!"

"Which bastard did this to you?"

Wu Zihao grew enraged as he considered what had happened at the restaurant. He smashed the wine glass on the table spat, "He's pure trash. He had a limited-edition Bentley and drove off with the girl I like! What an asshole!"

Zhao Qiang felt pleased in secret. It turned out he wasn't the only one who had been embarrassed. "Who is this girl who left you? She's probably better off with that guy. I mean, why would she ditch you for that loser?"

"It's Xu Murann from our school's Arts Department. The jerk attends our school as well. His name is Lin Fan."

Lin Fan? That guy again?! Did he have a specialty in evil deeds?

Wu Zihao had also fixed his eyes on Xu Murann. Thankfully, he failed to get her.

Zhao Qiang was genuinely surprised, but he quickly rolled his eyes and had a terrible thought.

"This scavenger, Lin Fan, actually dares to challenge Hao. To be completely honest, I also hate him."

"Who the heck is he? He obviously can't be a scavenger, right?"

"He is insane. Surely his family has some money. However, he does not live in Mingzhou. Since we don't like him, why don't we deal with this jerk together?"

Zhao Qiang had been harboring his resentment inwardly and was waiting for an opportunity to get revenge, although he had been tricked by Lin Fan once and publicly accepted defeat.

Even Wu Zihao was now annoyed with him. The two of them just happened to be in an alliance.

Zhao Qiang was previously afraid of Lu Xiangshan and the Faang family, but with Wu Zihao's help, he felt certain that he could defeat Lin Fan.

"Sure. You've always been the smart one, so please come up with a plan. I have to exact revenge! Later, please help me devise a way to get revenge on him."

Zhao Qiang secretly felt good about himself when he noticed Wu Zihao had fallen for the bait.

"Then it's a done deal!"

They each raised their wine glasses, clinked them together, and then drank the contents in one go.

They didn't discuss anything else and only spoke about the young model standing next to them.

Wang Datou, who just came back from dinner, loudly opened the door to their dorm room. "Lin Fan, how are you doing? Wu Zihao didn't hurt you, did he?"

Wu Zihao also left the restaurant after Lin Fan sent Xu Murann back to the girls dormitory.

Wu Zihao's table kept an eye on Lee Xin and the others and restrained their movements. They didn't release them until today.

Wang Datou was concerned about Lin Fan. He hurried back and asked about Lin Fan's condition.

"I'm doing fine. Look at me! I look okay."

"Compared to Zhao Qiang, Wu Zihao is even more haughty and arrogant. How did you get away? Also, how's Xu Murann?"

"So what if you're arrogant? He wouldn't have the courage to act wildly in public. I've sent Xu Murann back to the dorm. Everything is fine. Don't worry."

Since Lin Fan appeared to be quite at ease, Wang Datou and the others felt relieved.

They warned him to take precaution with Wu Zihao's tendency to exact revenge. Lin Fan concurred with a nod.

They stopped talking about this matter afterward.

Meanwhile, Xu Murann's roommates also came back and asked the same question, but they did it on Lin Fan's orders.

Xu Murann didn't divulge the truth. She simply gave a brief response, and they ceased talking about the subject.

Suddenly, Shasha, who was fiddling with her phone, screamed.

"Oh my gosh, Murann! You got a huge tip from the tycoon when you did your live earlier!"

"What? Which reward?"

"You received over a million dollar reward. Who could be this rich to spend this much?"

The big reward startled the other girls. They felt a brief surge of jealousy and envy of all kinds.

"Murann, this time you earned over seven hundred thousand dollars, right? How much money do you usually make from doing live broadcasts?"

"Have you added him on WeChat? Do you know who he is? Did he ask you out on a date?"

Xu Murann nodded but then shook her head after a while.

"I'll do the same and broadcast it also. I want to meet someone like him someday," Shasha murmured with a wistful expression.

Pingping also nodded. They meticulously put on their outfits and started getting ready to do the live broadcast. They wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to meet rich guys.
