After leaving the hospital, Ruan Xingyao returned home, took Baiyi out for a walk, then prepared food and toys for it before starting that day’s livestream.
“Good afternoon, family! Welcome to Starry’s livestream. Today’s call-ins are about to begin!”
【Wow! The streamer is so early today! Luckily I didn’t take a nap and caught it!】
【Since you’re early today, can you connect with a few more people?】
【Pick me, pick me, pick me! You have to pick me today!】
【Anyway, I’m already rubbing my hands, ready to grab that lucky bag! I’m definitely getting picked today!】
【No way! Don’t you guys want to know what happened with that corgi last time? The streamer still hasn’t explained it!】
【Honestly, I’m pretty curious about it!】
【It’s just that it’s pregnant, right? What else is there to say?】
【Exactly! It’s been so many days already! Why are people still hung up on this? Weird!】
Ruan Xingyao looked at the barrage of comments, feeling rather puzzled.
She had clearly minimized the impact of that call-in incident, and nothing she’d revealed in the livestream had any loopholes.
After all these days, why were so many people still harping on about it?
Thinking for a moment, Ruan Xingyao opened the backstage messages.
“Countless Short Drama Male Gods” had sent her a private message.
“Streamer Starry, don’t mind those people in the livestream. They’re probably paid commenters my family hired to pressure you. Just pretend you didn’t see them.”
Ruan Xingyao was a little speechless—she really had gotten herself into some trouble.
Still, since “Countless Short Drama Male Gods” had said so, she decided to just play dumb.
Exiting the backstage, Ruan Xingyao smiled into the camera and said, “Alright, let’s not waste time. Let’s do today’s first lucky bag draw. Let me see who our first lucky winner is today!”
After releasing the lucky bag, she patiently waited.
Soon, the first viewer to win the lucky bag appeared.
It was a viewer with the username “Coke Snow Sprite Mirinda.”
Ruan Xingyao: “Hello, Coke Snow Sprite Mirinda. Is there anything I can help you with?”
“Coke Snow Sprite Mirinda” was a slightly chubby young man wearing a pet hospital uniform, with a pair of black-rimmed glasses and an honest, good-natured expression.
“Hello, Streamer. May I ask… can you really understand what small animals are saying?” “Coke Snow Sprite Mirinda” asked.
Ruan Xingyao said, “Looks like this family member is watching my stream for the first time and doesn’t know me very well yet. Actions speak louder than words — you can bring over the animal you want to ask about, and I can prove it to you.”
“Coke Snow Sprite Mirinda” quickly brought over a cat that looked sickly, skinny, and completely lacking in energy.
【Is this a sick cat from the pet hospital?】
【Wow, this guy is really a good person! The cat’s already in this bad of a condition, yet he still takes it to the pet hospital for treatment. Such a kindhearted man!】
【But… haven’t you noticed? The host’s expression suddenly looks really angry. Why’s that?】
【Why else? Trying to grab attention again, obviously! We’ve watched so many of her streams already — only a fool wouldn’t see through her routine!】
【Here comes that troll again! After watching so many streams, you still won’t admit the host actually has real skills!】
The comment section broke out into another argument, but those speaking rudely were quickly kicked out of the stream by You Huan.
Ruan Xingyao kept her gaze locked on the camera and said, “Alright, family member, tell me your question.”
“Coke Snow Sprite Mirinda” gently stroked the weak, frail cat and said sadly, “I’m a veterinarian. Yesterday, I examined this cat and found that its body won’t be able to hold on much longer. I wanted to ask the host to help me find out if it has any last wishes. I’ll do my best to fulfill them.”
As he spoke, “Coke Snow Sprite Mirinda” even raised his hand to wipe his eyes, looking as though he was about to cry.
More and more people in the comment section were touched by his words.
【This guy is truly such a good person! Even for a dying cat, he’s willing to go to such lengths. That’s amazing!】
【If you ask me, this is just being foolishly softhearted. Too much money and nowhere to spend it. I bet he’s not even this attentive to his own parents! People like this should be locked up!】
【Where the heck did that lunatic come from? If you’re so filial, take care of your own parents and stop spouting nonsense in this chat!】
【Enough already! Don’t forget what this stream is about! This place is meant for solving small animals’ problems. If you want to talk about filial piety, go to another stream, thanks!】
Ruan Xingyao ignored the insane remarks in the comment section.
She let out a cold laugh and said, “Alright then, I’ll help you ask what it wants.”
“Meow meow, meow meow meow.”
【Human, I don’t want anything.】
“Meow meow, meow meow meow, meow meow meow meow meow.”
【Human, please, I’m begging you to save us!】
“Meow meow meow, meow meow meow meow, meow meow meow meow.”
【Human, this person is not a good person at all. He didn’t bring us back to treat us — he’s drawing our blood.】
After listening to the kitten’s accusation, Ruan Xingyao’s hands clenched tighter and tighter outside the frame of the camera.
If it weren’t for the fact that they were separated by a video stream, she would have wanted to reach through the screen and beat that “Coke Snow Sprite Mirinda” to a pulp.
That bastard!
Bullying even a little kitten!
Pretending to be some great benefactor, when in reality he was nothing more than a hypocritical villain hiding behind a righteous façade!
Absolutely disgusting!
And yet, at this very moment, “Coke Snow Sprite Mirinda” was still putting on an act.
“Streamer, may I ask, what did it say? Is there anything I need to do?” he asked.
Ruan Xingyao’s gaze instantly turned icy.
She said, “It said, stop drawing its blood. It has no more blood left for you to take!”
The moment those words left her mouth, the comment feed fell silent for a long while before coming back to life.
【What do you mean? Did I hear that wrong? What exactly does the streamer mean?】
【Plot twist! This must be a plot twist! So this person isn’t a good guy at all — he’s a bad guy who hurts cats!】
【So disgusting! He’s actually drawing blood from cats! Judging by the cat’s condition, it’s probably been drained dry already! Gross!】
【I knew my instincts wouldn’t lie. From the start, I could tell this guy didn’t seem like a good person. My instincts are just too accurate!】
【Oh, stop it with the hindsight bragging! Where were you earlier? Saying it now doesn’t make you look smart!】
【Are you guys seriously just taking whatever she says as fact? I’m telling you, the streamer could be making all this up!】
【Exactly! Who knows how long you people will keep letting this scammer fool you!】
“Coke Snow Sprite Mirinda” never expected Ruan Xingyao could actually understand what the kitten was saying, or that she would even know about him drawing its blood.
But he couldn’t admit it.
“Streamer, what are you talking about? I don’t understand at all!” he said.
