The spacious living room was now empty except for one person.
Bi Fang stood on the glossy elm wood floor, slightly emotional.
The house, complete with a garden, now belonged to him.
“This building was a French businessman’s mansion before the liberation. My father bought it and had it renovated. Now, he has given it to you,” Lin Chang’s voice seemed to echo in his ears.
The renovated mansion still retained the old elm wood flooring, but all four walls had been knocked down and replaced with floor-to-ceiling windows. Rooms were combined by removing the walls between them, and the floors above had been taken out as well.
When he looked up, he saw a dome eight meters high, with a massive branched chandelier hanging from the century-old wooden beams.
Right now, the chandelier was unlit. The only light in the vast space came from the candles on the antique table where they had just had dinner.
Bi Fang didn’t know how much the house was worth, but it must be an astronomical figure.
Typical of the CEO of Shenhua Group, always acting generously.
The most critical part was the special live streaming license. From now on, Bi Fang could do as he pleased!
Sitting on the sofa, Bi Fang wasn’t in a hurry to go home. He took out his newly bought phone, started a live broadcast, and prepared for a giveaway event. As soon as the notification went out, a large number of Shuiyou flooded in.
The number of viewers broke five thousand instantly!
And it kept rising!
Unbelievable!
[Here he is, Old Fang has arrived!)
[Finally showed up, haven’t seen you for several days.)
[Damn, what a huge house, is Old Fang really a second-generation rich?]
[No shit, just look at all that streaming gear, it’s not cheap. Can an average person afford that?)
[Awesome, a special forces soldier and a rich kid. That’s real positivity!]
I Are you giving away Wolf Fang items? 1 want one(OcuO)]
[+1 want!]
[Is Old Fang’s injury healed? Will it delay the next live stream?]
[Exactly, when is the next live stream? Even the farm’s donkey wouldn’t get this much rest!]
Man, they’re going to work him to death, already pushing for more?
Bi Fang looked at the comments, raised an eyebrow, and said bluntly, “Forget it, there’s no way I’m going back to Wilderness Survivalist this week. Do you really think it’s that simple to survive out there?”
As soon as he said that, quite a few Shuiyou started to threaten to unfollow.
“If you unfollow, you’ll miss out on the draw,” Bi Fang said indifferently.
Sure enough, the Shuiyou who were just about to unfollow came scrambling back the very next second.
[Forget it, I’ll unfollow after the draw, unfollow after the draw.]
[The guy above is so shameless, but I’m really unfollowing.]
[Is it worth it…]
[He just wants others to unfollow to increase his own chances of winning…]
[Realized the truth, I’m still too naive.]
[Can I buy a Wolf Fang? I’ll pay for it! A thousand for one!]
[The guy above wants one? I have some, inherited from my grandfather, want to buy it?]
[Don’t joke, can yours be the same as Master Fang’s?]
A bunch of Shuiyou were sending barrage comments, and Bi Fang didn’t waste any time, directly holding a fan giveaway in the live stream. He sent out several dozen Wolf Fangs.
He also previewed the next day’s stream, which was not “Wilderness Survivalist” but just a regular training stream, serving as a transition to keep the current hype going.
“Surviving in the wilderness is actually not as simple as you all think. Tomorrow afternoon, I’ll teach everyone how to do some training, including auditory training, visual training, training to sense the environment, and physical training. Those interested can check it out then,” he explained.
After saying that, Bi Fang ended the live stream once again.
The viewers in the live stream room were totally baffled. That was too fast, wasn’t it? They hadn’t even had time to react before it was over.
I Auditory training? Is that even a thing? Can it improve my English listening scores?]
[You’re overthinking it upstairs, it’s probably to help you hear more clearly after training, right?]
[You can train for that?]
“Didn’t you say he lives here? What the hell kind of place is this?”
Lu Wentao tugged at his collar, looking at the live stream backdrop on Bi Fang’s phone, feeling very irritated inside.
He suddenly felt like ten million might not be enough to handle this guy.
The chandelier on the screen, no matter how you looked at it, didn’t seem like a cheap item.
This made Lu Wentao feel as though he was being crushed by the social hierarchy.
I hat can’t be right; he listed this address when he registered his live streaming room with Shark. It was here that the vice president of Wolf Fang found him. Our information can’t be wrong!” Lu Junming was also confused, but he still insisted on his own judgment.
Ever since they heard that Bi Fang had left the hospital, the two had rushed to Bi Fang’s home, only to be greeted by a closed door. Despite knocking for a long time, there was no response.
It was only after the old man across the hall said no one had come back that they gave up.
But the two hadn’t left yet because they thought that Bi Fang might have been delayed by something and hadn’t returned home. So, they sat in a nearby cafe for a good half of the day, all the way until they saw this live stream.
“I told you! His equipment is all high-end, how could he possibly live in such a rundown place? Didn’t you think a little when investigating? Do you believe everything?” Lu Wentao got more convinced as he thought about it, his spit flying into Lu Junming’s coffee.
Lu Junming silently moved his cup away, speechless.
Could his information really be wrong?
Did the other party provide a fake address? Was he that cunning?
Wasn’t this tactic a bit too sophisticated?
Lu Junming couldn’t help but think back to his hometown, where people were simple and guileless, and the roads not slippery.
“Hey! Sister Ning, don’t you think that guy looks really familiar?” Bao Xuan whispered to Ning Zhiyun while leaning on the counter.
Two men had been sitting there for most of the day, and they had only ordered two cups of coffee but refilled them three times and gone to the bathroom twice. They just wouldn’t leave.
Even though the coffee refills were free, wasn’t this taking too much advantage?
Bao Xuan despised people who took advantage like this, so she had been paying attention for a long time. But as she watched, she felt something was off, because one of them looked strangely familiar to her.
“Indeed.” Ning Zhiyun looked over and felt the same way.
After all, it was only recently that they had read the news about Bi Fang, which mentioned the sole other “Wilderness” streamer at present, Lu Wentao, leaving them with some impression.
“Could they be wanted criminals?” Bao Xuan’s voice went even softer, feeling this was more likely. The two men were sneaking around, clearly not up to any good.
What! Ning Zhiyun exclaimed but immediately covered her mouth, afraid of alerting Lu Wentao.
“Should we call the police?” Bao Xuan suggested again.
It was getting darker outside, yet the two men showed no signs of leaving. When night falls and the cafe is only left with two pretty young girls, how dangerous would that be?
“All? But what if it’s a misunderstanding?” Ning Zhiyun was inclined to consider it, yet she feared misunderstanding someone.
“How could it be? Look at those two, sneaky and rat-like, obviously up to no good. If it gets later and there is no one else in the shop, what if they get ideas?” Bao Xuan was genuinely concerned.
Ning Zhiyun looked at Bao Xuan with a complicated expression. Though she thought it unlikely the two men had any designs on Bao Xuan, just to be safe…
Well, if it comes to it… she’ll just have Bao Xuan apologize later!
