Chapter 49: Crisis

"Stop fantasizing, you brainless fans. Kid is just a trashy streamer, a filthy SCUM!"2

"If scum like Kid can clear his name, I'll eat sh*t live!"

"Is Kid dead today? Is Kid dead today? Is Kid dead today?"

...

Lin Xiaozhou handed the phone back to Gu Chu.

At this moment, even if he posted on Weibo that his phone had been stolen, no one would believe him.

He had returned to China behind his parents' backs. For the past two years, he had been wholeheartedly playing games and doing live broadcasts. He actually did not have many friends by his side. The fans who supported him have chosen to stay silent and run away. The few fans who dared to speak up for him were criticized heavily online. 

His only true brother, Zhao Yan, was still abroad.

Lin Xiaozhou did not want to disturb him.

In an instant, he felt as if he had been abandoned by the entire world.

Helpless and slightly desperate.

Suppressing the surging feelings in his heart, Lin Xiaozhou rubbed his belly and forced a smile. "I'm a little hungry... I should get out of the hospital first. Chuchu, I'll send you back to Old Zhao's house first-"

"No, you need to be hospitalized." Cheng Qi stopped him with a cold expression.

Lin Xiaozhou's two eyebrows were knitted like caterpillars. He subconsciously held his belly and was a little in disbelief. "I... I just have a common stomach disease. Did the hospital find something serious?"

He was a little scared. 

Cheng Qi shook his head. "You don't have anything serious. I plan to sign a contract with you."

Lin Xiaozhou: "? ?"

The biggest streaming platform in the country was [ Red Hearts Streaming ], one of the businesses of the Cheng family in the capital. This platform had many popular streamers. The previous annual streamers meeting was organized by the Cheng family. They invited a wide range of nationally known streamers with the intention of poaching people.

Lin Xiaozhou had considered signing a live streamer contract with Red Hearts in the past, but for Zhao's sake, he decided to join Orange Streaming. 

"Young Master Cheng, don't joke around." Lin Xiaozhou scratched his head and smiled bitterly. "Everyone is after my head at the moment. I can't clear my name."

His live streamer career would probably be ruined.

Cheng Qi said calmly, "Don't worry, I'll handle it. You just need to stay in the hospital for now."

The contract between Lin Xiaozhou and Orange Streaming was signed for two years. Now that the contract was about to expire, Cheng Qi decided to renew Lin Xiaozhou's contract.

Gu Chu glanced at the enigmatic Cheng Qi and went over to encourage him. "Brother Xiaozhou, the Doctor said that your stomach is bleeding. Don't run around and stay in the hospital. I'll get you some milk cakes for you. Be good."

Lin Xiaozhou glanced at Gu Chu and then at Cheng Qi.

Lin Xiaozhou had also heard of Cheng Qi's reputation. The young master of the Cheng family had risen abruptly in the past one to two years. He gradually revealed his astonishing business methods and got rid of many rivals.

There were also rumors that Cheng Qi had obtained 51% of the shares of the financial group from his father and was already the successor of the Cheng family. No one knew if this news was true or not, but only a few people spread it.

Lin Xiaozhou quietly retreated to his bed.

Right now, he would grasp every opportunity he could. 

If the Cheng family could really help him, he would remember this favor in his heart.

...

Lin Xiaozhou stayed in the hospital for another two days.

His phone was still in Xiao Fang's hands, and his Weibo password had been changed. Lin Xiaozhou did not have any way to speak up. Every day, he would stay in the ward and either read online gossip or play games with Gu Chu.

"Kiddo, your gaming skills are really ruthless." Lin Xiaozhou played Luban No. 7, but he was stabbed to death by Gu Chu's invisible Lanling King. Lin Xiaozhou grimaced.

This child's gaming talent was off the charts.

And she was also extremely ruthless!
