FSGOR Ch99 – Extra Anchor

Ningcheng International Airport.

Chu Xuyu had just returned from Los Angeles and got into the driver’s seat of his Black Warrior SUV. His muscular arm reached across his body to grab the seatbelt—right then, a notification pinged from the phone lying carelessly on the passenger seat.

It was a message from his secretary, surprisingly unrelated to work—but it completely piqued his interest.

Simon: Boss Chu!

Simon: The sweetie-pie streamer didn’t fall for it!

Chu Xuyu narrowed his eyes.

“……”

What do you mean “didn’t fall for it”?

Was this some kind of elaborate scam he had orchestrated?

He ignored the secretary’s message. Instead, he held his phone with one hand, leaned back into the seat, and opened the streaming platform with great interest.

On the screen, his anonymous account—free of any profile picture, signature, or hints of his billionaire status—showed that he followed only one streamer: KIRA.

It also showed that he’d followed KIRA a month ago.

That night.

Chu Xuyu had meetings until late into the night. He’d argued with his father over the phone, the call ending in a bitter stalemate. Suffering from chronic insomnia, he couldn’t fall asleep.

He didn’t normally browse employees’ friend circles, but that night he was mind-numbingly bored.

Seeing Simon had shared a stream link, he clicked on it without much thought.

The moment he heard the streamer’s refreshing yet magnetic voice, Chu Xuyu felt his soul get hooked.

All the irritation in his heart was soothed.

This streamer was special.

Even though he was livestreaming a game, he was chatting with a friend about homework. His voice was calm and patient, exuding a maturity far beyond his years—quietly alluring.

That night, Chu Xuyu actually drifted into a peaceful, sweet sleep listening to KIRA’s voice.

Since then, whenever he struggled with insomnia, it was always the sweetie-pie streamer who helped him find rest again.

Because of that, Chu Xuyu developed a special fascination for this faceless young streamer. His mental filter was ridiculously rose-colored—like a hundred-story tower—and he couldn’t help wanting to get to know him.

But when his secretary reached out, KIRA had politely refused to make personal contact.
To Chu Xuyu, that only made him seem even more pure and untouchable—and it made Chu Xuyu all the more determined to keep trying.

While thinking about this, he set up scheduled gift drops for KIRA’s livestream, then casually tossed the phone onto the console, buckled his seatbelt again, and stepped on the gas.

***
Elsewhere.

Jiang Tian noticed his stream was getting unexpectedly crowded.

But he wasn’t even logged into his own account—he was helping Simon complete tasks. The regular viewers knew this account belonged to a long-time client, so usually, there wasn’t much buzz.

Since his main account had already reached top-tier rank, watching him play on that account was always more exciting and challenging.

But Simon’s account?

Pretty average.

And when Jiang Tian didn’t voice chat with Lu Qiao, his streams were quiet and more low-key—viewer numbers usually stayed modest.

But—

Something felt seriously off this time.

When Jiang Tian finished the match and finally clicked into the stream window, he saw the chat flooded with exclamation points.

He focused—and gasped.

[whhc] sent you a Candy Rocket x1~

[whhc] sent you a Candy Rocket x2~

[whhc] sent you a Candy Rocket x3~
…
[whhc] sent you a Candy Rocket x50~

Hands shaking, Jiang Tian clicked into the big spender’s profile and immediately messaged them—completely ignoring the live stream.

KIRA: Hello, did you maybe gift those by mistake?

KIRA: Candy Rockets are really expensive. I can refund you—just send me your payment info?

It wasn’t just Jiang Tian who was freaking out.

The entire stream chat was in awe.

“That’s the most expensive gift on the whole platform!”

“WTF, who is this sugar daddy?! Just dropped 500,000 like it’s nothing?!”

“I’m speechless… holy crap!”

“OMG, our Sweetie Streamer hasn’t even shown his face yet! If he did, that sugar daddy would probably go bankrupt LOL!”

“How can you call it a scam? He gave it willingly! Hehehe~”

“Hahahaha Sweetie’s love story has arrived~”

Jiang Tian felt like he was being roasted alive.

Sweat trickled from his forehead despite the air conditioning.

The teasing comments made the room feel like it had lost all its cool.

His long, pale fingers clacked nervously on the keyboard.

Suddenly—his fingertips hovered above the “Send” button.
He glanced once more at the ID “whhc,” and the phrase “Afternoon Tea” popped into his head.

A ridiculous suspicion struck him.

Could this be… Simon’s boss?

Even though his gut screamed yes, Jiang Tian wasn’t sure.

And since the other party hadn’t responded to his message, he was getting more and more restless.

Bzzz—

A new friend request popped up on his phone.

Jiang Tian: “?!!”

He scrambled to grab the phone and stared at the screen name—his Adam’s apple bobbing.

His mind went instantly clear.

He accepted the friend request from “Afternoon Tea.”

Palms sweating, he saw the “typing…” indicator flash from the other side.
He forgot to even greet the man first.

Afternoon Tea: Still won’t take the job?

Jiang Tian took a deep breath.

He had just confirmed who the top gifter was, and that Simon’s boss was seriously persistent.

A wave of confusion and unease overwhelmed him.

KIRA: Hello.

KIRA: You’re the one who sent 50 Candy Rockets, right?

Afternoon Tea: Mm.

Afternoon Tea: You’ve got a sweet mouth.

In truth, Jiang Tian had only accepted the gifts out of politeness.

KIRA: Ge, I really want to return the money. Could you send me your payment info?

Afternoon Tea: No.

KIRA: …

KIRA: I’m sorry, the amount is just too much. I really can’t accept it.

Afternoon Tea: You can accept the job.

KIRA: …

What is with this guy?

Jiang Tian, still in high school, had never encountered someone so unreasonable.
Not just fans in the livestream chat—even Lu Qiao had heard about it and came to ask what was going on.

KIRA: It’s fine, I added him as a friend. I’ll return the money.

KIRA: You go focus on your assignments.

KIRA: If there’s anything you don’t understand, save it for later. I’ll help you out tonight.

Lu Qiao: ?!!!

Lu Qiao: Wait, are you serious?! How am I supposed to study now?!

Lu Qiao: Ge, is he trying to hit on you?! You cannot say yes!!

KIRA: …………

No way.

He’s a guy.

That boss is also a guy.

It’s probably just his pride acting up—after being rejected for a job request, he’s messing with him a little in the livestream out of amusement.

Although…

This kind of behavior does feel a bit like someone teasing a puppy.

Jiang Tian was at a loss.

Left with no other choice, he reluctantly agreed to take the job—but made the condition clear: the money had to be refunded.

For a student from an ordinary family, this kind of amount wasn’t something he could accept lightly.

It simply shouldn’t end up in his pocket.

Afternoon Tea: No rush.

Afternoon Tea: Are you free tonight?

KIRA: Huh?

Afternoon Tea: Chat with me.

KIRA: …

KIRA: If we chat, will you send me your payment info afterward?

Afternoon Tea: Mm.

KIRA: Okay. Tonight at eight?

Afternoon Tea: Works for me.

KIRA: Got it.

Jiang Tian let out a small breath of relief, barely starting to calm down—when another message popped up from the man.

Afternoon Tea: Voice chat.

Afternoon Tea: I want to hear your voice.

“…………”

Why does he want to hear my voice?

Could it be… this top gifter actually does want to flirt with me?!
