Chapter 43: Bored of the Dancing? How About Adding Me on WeChat?
“Technician No. 58 only just started, so it’ll take at least another half an hour before she’s free,” the manager explained.
“How about I arrange for another technician to serve you first, and then I’ll have No. 58 join you once she’s back?”
“Forget it! Just give me a private room. I’ll wait there,” Cao Shaoyang replied.
“Of course, sir. Please, follow me!”
Whether it was due to high demand or simply wanting to avoid disturbances, the manager led him to the innermost private room in the corridor.
“Sir, the surrounding rooms are unoccupied, and I’ll make sure the other technicians steer clear of this area to avoid disrupting your rest. The matter with No. 58 was entirely my mistake, and I hope you can forgive me,” she said, bowing slightly in apology.
“It’s fine. No big deal. Don’t dwell on it.”
“If there’s nothing else, you can leave now,” he added.
Cao Shaoyang didn’t bother with niceties. While the situation wasn’t a big issue, it had interrupted his mood. He wasn’t rude, but he saw no reason to be overly courteous either. He gestured for the manager to leave.
Once alone, he turned on the TV opposite the bed, connected it to his phone via wireless casting, and started scrolling through short videos, killing time.

“Milk Cow Doesn’t Drink Milk” Live Stream
With support from a certain big-shot viewer, the popularity of the “Milk Cow Doesn’t Drink Milk” live stream account had been steadily rising. The regular viewer count had grown significantly, and income from gifts and rewards was increasing rapidly, now rivaling the money earned from completing tasks for the aforementioned big-shot.
Thanks to this, Xin Chun Jiao had quit her regular job and become a full-time streamer. Previously, she had only streamed at night after work, but now she added a daytime session as well.
With upbeat music blasting in the background, she swayed her body passionately, her choreographed sensual dance routines captivating her audience. As the music ended, she paused the performance and returned to the camera, greeted by a flood of gift animations lighting up the screen.
Xin Chun Jiao skillfully used her streamer persona to thank the viewers for their generous gifts, especially the high-value contributors. Of course, she didn’t forget to acknowledge the smaller gifts too, grouping them into a general thank-you message.
Dancing was physically exhausting, so to keep her energy up for long streaming sessions, she often interspersed her performances with casual chats to recover.
However, the lighthearted conversation was interrupted by a rocket launch animation—a rare high-value gift that immediately boosted her stream’s visibility. While such gifts weren’t an everyday occurrence, they had become less of a novelty over the past month. Even so, she maintained her gratitude, knowing rockets significantly increased her viewership.
Glancing at the gift’s sender, whose username was displayed as [Zuo Shan Diao], Milk Cow smiled and recited her usual line:
“Thank you, my big brother Zuo Shan Diao, for the soaring rocket! Much appreciated!”
“Big bro, since you’re so supportive, how about I dedicate a dance to you? Let me know what you’d like to see!” she added cheerfully.
But instead of a dance request, she received a different kind of message:
[Zuo Shan Diao]: I’m bored of the dancing. Streamer, can I add you on WeChat?
Milk Cow chuckled awkwardly as she read the comment. [“Sorry, big bro, but I don’t add people on WeChat here,”] she replied, her tone polite but firm.
In the chat, her regular viewers—who were well-acquainted with such situations—began chiming in. Some were long-time fans, while others were new viewers drawn in by the rocket animation.
[“Aha, another clueless big bro trying to get the streamer’s WeChat. Sorry to say, bro, but you’re out of luck.”].
[“Hey, gifting rockets to skip the dancing and jump straight to asking for her WeChat? Big bro, aren’t you being a bit too obvious?”].
[“Looks like another big bro is about to waste his money. Guess you didn’t realize that she doesn’t add anyone, no matter how much you gift!”].
A newcomer asked curiously, [“Why doesn’t the streamer add WeChat? Is it because the gifts aren’t generous enough?”].
Someone replied, [“Newbie upstairs, you probably don’t know yet. The streamer already has her own big boss. The rule is that no one can outshine him in gifting, and he doesn’t allow her to add other big bosses on WeChat.”].
Another chimed in, [“Yep, the streamer has already been taken care of by her main big boss. Nobody else can even think about it.”].
The newcomer laughed, [“Well, I’m new here. I don’t know anything, I won’t say anything, I’ll just quietly watch the drama. My gut tells me there’s going to be something interesting to watch today.”].
Someone else exclaimed, [“Whoa! The top-ranked big boss is a real legend! His total gifts are worth over 900,000, almost breaking the one-million RMB mark!”].
[“Such a low-key tycoon. How have I never seen him before? Wei Wu The Great—just the name alone sounds like it’s got a story behind it.”].
While the audience chatted happily, the big boss who had just gifted the rocket, Zuo Shan Diao, was not as pleased.
[Zuo Shan Diao]: In other streams, sending a rocket means I get the WeChat. Why is it different here? Do I need to spend more money to make it happen?
Clearly, Zuo Shan Diao wasn’t one to back down easily. Milk Cow Doesn’t Drink Milk had no choice but to address him directly.
[“Big bro Zuo Shan Diao, I really can’t add WeChat. My big boss is very strict and doesn’t allow me to add—”].
Before she could even finish her sentence, the rocket animation flared up on the screen again, filling the chat with another round of gift effects.
