Testing the Waters

Chapter 53

Once Yu Qing decided to test the waters of the live-streaming world, his attitude became remarkably earnest. During this period, Qiu Minmin had been constantly gathering information on how to be a streamer, acting very much like a semi-manager. As she delved deeper into her research, she saw a genuine business opportunity in Yu Qing. The two of them even went so far as to print a formal labor contract. She was responsible for handling communications with the platform, while Yu Qing was responsible for the gaming side of things. They agreed on an 80-20 split of the profits. Because Cheng Yifei and Fei Cheng had both assessed Yu Qing as being impulsive, easily swayed, and prone to indecisiveness over small matters, the task of handling external affairs fell to Qiu Minmin, who was decisive and possessed a sharp, quick tongue. A week later. Yu Qing quietly began his first broadcast on Chinchilla Live, the largest streaming platform. At the same time, Fei Cheng and Cheng Yifei were nearly dying of laughter as they flipped through the labor contract. As expected of Finance and Law students—the person wasn't even famous yet, but the legal precautions were already thoroughly prepared. When he first started broadcasting, Yu Qing had no highlight reels, and Qiu Minmin hadn't yet mastered video editing; there was still so much to learn. Furthermore, Yu Qing found it difficult to be engaging while facing an empty room, so Qiu Minmin taught him how to talk to himself. She insisted that he couldn't just play the game in silence, so he began rambling about anything and everything, occasionally slipping into his local dialect. Qiu Minmin would correct him on one hand while telling Cheng Yifei and Fei Cheng to stop laughing on the other. Cheng Yifei and Fei Cheng restrained themselves slightly. They downloaded the Chinchilla app, searched for Yu Qing’s streamer ID, and followed him with a single click. Then, acting as random fans, they began showering Yu Qing with exaggerated, flowery praise. Seeing the bullet comments, Yu Qing felt a surge of joy in his heart. Immediately after, he roared, "Fei Cheng! Cheng Yifei! Don't you dare send another one!" Fei Cheng collapsed onto Cheng Yifei’s shoulder, laughing, while Cheng Yifei held him loosely as they dissolved into a fit of giggles. Qiu Minmin smacked the back of Yu Qing’s head. "Don't reveal real-world friend information! You can tease your teammates, the enemies, or even the heroes of King's Canyon." Yu Qing: "..." It was so strict. But since it was his own decision, he had to see it through, even if he had to do it in tears! Laughter aside, Cheng Yifei and Fei Cheng were very active in helping. Whether it was duo or trio queuing, as long as Yu Qing asked, they never failed to log on. Perhaps it was the charm of his dialect, perhaps his skills were up to par, or perhaps the atmosphere of their duo and trio teams was simply too harmonious. After persisting for half a month, Yu Qing actually managed to attract several hundred fans and even received an internal message from the website regarding a contract. As long as he broadcasted for three hours a day, he would receive a base salary of two thousand yuan, with the audience's tips being split 50-50 with the platform. Once Yu Qing’s streaming life stabilized, Qiu Minmin found a part-time job as a tutor in her spare time. Fei Cheng also found his own way to make money. Meanwhile, Cheng Yifei joined a research and development project led by a senior student. The four of them became increasingly busy, balancing their studies and part-time work, with clear goals every day they woke up. In the blink of an eye, a year passed. The seniors graduated, a new batch of freshmen flooded into the school, and Fei Cheng and the others were promoted from freshmen to sophomores. Following the school's arrangements, their dormitories were reassigned. Since they were now relatively well-off thanks to their work-study balance, they simply decided to rent an apartment together off-campus, with each person having their own room. It was this shared living arrangement that caused the relationship between Cheng Yifei and Fei Cheng to be completely exposed.
