Boss Monster Chat Group - Chapter 46
Chapter 46: Chapter 46 – Qiuqiu
“I saw your stream. Wait a bit, kill some normal monsters for now and don’t go looking for that big rabbit.” Su Mo felt quite frustrated, but he had to go help his little sister.
Firstly, he had promised his father and mother he would help her, but secondly, he was quite angry after seeing that damn rabbit dare to kill Su Xiaojiu.
He spent some money to teleport to a Newbie Village called Provence. Fortunately, it was not too far away from Hargins, and it ‘only’ cost him 40 silver coins.
After all, she was streaming and Su Mo could not have her wait too long.
Provence was a unique place and shared the same name with a place in the real world that had lots of lavender. In actuality, it was based on that place.
There were many places like this in New World, and they all had their own styles.
Some people who liked to travel especially liked these kinds of places.
Su Xiaojiu immediately chose this place to spawn after seeing it because she quite liked lavender. Su Mo did not see the appeal of these flowers, and he just felt that they were somewhat pretentious.
When Su Mo arrived, he saw his little sister holding the massive spoon as she rushed at a rabbit, yelling, “Die beautifully!”
Su Mo could not help but cover his face, feeling quite depressed. Why was this girl so violent? Just who had made her like this?
“Aiya, big bro, you’re here.” Su Xiaojiu was quite happy to see her big brother. It was different seeing him in the game, and she lowered her pain settings to the lowest. This would allow her to have a good fight with her big brother without feeling anything.
“Put your spoon away. If you dare to attack me, I’ll give you a beating at home.” Su Mo could immediately tell what she was thinking.
The chatroom became filled with greetings to the big brother, as well as comments at how handsome the big brother was. However, soon, some other things started to appear.
“This person looks a bit familiar. That appearance and profession, could he be the Panda Brother? Someone check for me if this is the Panda Brother…”
More and more similar messages appeared, and the chatroom began to work towards the truth.
“Why is my chat calling you the Panda Brother?” Su Xiaojiu soon noticed this too.
“Maybe they think I look like a panda,” Su Mo suggested.
“You’re lying!” Su Xiaojiu became angry. She then read through what her chat was saying and discovered the truth. She jumped up and hugged Su Mo’s arm.
“Big bro, you have a panda, right? Right?”
“Let go, ow—you’re biting me too? Are you a dog?”
An amusing scene soon appeared in the stream. The brother and sister started to fight in the game, but in the end, Su Mo relied on his superior level and strength to subdue Su Xiaojiu. He grabbed the back of her neck and lifted her into the air.
“Big bro~” Su Xiaojiu was not someone who would admit defeat so easily. After reading the chat, she was certain that her big brother had a panda, and it was said to be the only panda in the game.
Since she could not force things to go her way, she could only try to be coy. Even though Su Xiaojiu was often given a beating, whenever she had a conflict with Su Mo, she was never on the losing side.
“Alright, alright, I’ll let you have a look.” Su Mo could not bear to see her acting like this, and he could only summon the panda baby.
The chatroom instantly exploded, and everyone began to spam messages and emotes.
In actuality, not many people had actually seen this panda before. They had just heard that a Hunter had captured a panda as a pet, so many people ran to Hargins Town. However, they did not find anything. Su Mo only held his panda expos for one hour at random times.
Now, they had finally seen the real panda baby through the stream.
Su Xiaojiu acted essentially the same as the other girls. Fortunately, she did not smash her spoon on the panda baby’s head and then turn it into soup.
She hugged it and rubbed her cheeks against it, and her muffled voice sounded out, “Big bro, what is its name?”
“Name? Oh, they held a poll on a forum and want it to be called Rolly. I still haven’t had time to change its name though,” Su Mo said. He did not care much about the name so he had forgotten.
“No, I want to call it Qiuqiu,” Su Xiaojiu said.
“Qiuqiu, eh…” Su Mo paused for a moment and felt a wave of nostalgia.
Back then, Su Mo had gone to a classmate’s house to do homework together. His classmate’s cat had given birth, so the classmate’s mother had given a kitten to Su Mo.
Su Mo carefully brought the little kitten home, and at that time, it just happened to be Su Xiaojiu’s second birthday. As such, this kitten became Su Mo’s expression of love for his little sister, and it was her present for her second birthday.
The first thing that Su Xiaojiu had said when she was the kitten was ‘ball ball,’ so the kitten had been named ‘Qiuqiu.’ [TLN: ‘qiu’ means ‘ball’]
Qiuqiu grew up with Su Xiaojiu, but it was a pity that it was a cat and only lived for ten or so years. In the end, Qiuqiu passed away and Su Xiaojiu’s face was stained by tears for half a month, and she often woke up crying in the middle of the night.
Su Mo offered to buy her a new cat, but she did not want another. She felt that in the end, cats and dogs would all leave her.
Rather than feeling sad again in the future, it was better not to raise another one.
“Big bro?”
Su Xiaojiu’s voice brought Su Mo back to his senses, and he hurriedly nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll name it Qiuqiu then.”
As such, the panda baby’s name became Qiuqiu.
After giving it this name, ‘Qiuqiu’ would appear on the panda baby’s information page, and it would react to the name.
At the start, Su Xiaojiu was just a chatting streamer and would occasionally dance, and she had a stable 3,000 viewers. However, given that she had not streamed for very long, a big part of her following was her looks.
After getting spanked, her viewership had broken through to 10,000.
Now that she had become a game streamer and was a cute Chef, even though she was somewhat violent, she became more popular.
Now that she was in the same frame as Su Mo’s panda baby, her viewership exploded, and there were currently more than 100,000 people watching.
She could not compare to those major streamers with over one million viewers, but at this rate, it was only a matter of time. All she needed to do was occasionally hug Qiuqiu to increase her popularity.
In actuality, given how many other streamers there were, it was impossible for Su Xiaojiu to become rich overnight by just relying on this.
The growth of streams in this period was somewhat slow, no matter if it was for viewers or streamers. Minors could only watch some streams, and they could only donate their pocket money after they received parental consent. Adults also had a limit to how much they could donate every day.
Su Xiaojiu’s target was to earn $30,000 per month.
She would use $29,000 to help with her family’s debt and keep $1,000 as pocket money. Su Xiaojiu hugged Qiuqiu as she walked and thought about if $1,000 was too much. Perhaps just $500 would be enough.
