“Hello, everyone! Your dazzling beauty makes the fish sink and wild geese fall, a beauty so stunning that the moon hides her face and the flowers blush for shame at sight of me, a national beauty with flesh of ice and bones of jade. The beautiful little mermaid Sihwa has begun to broadcast live! Are you looking forward to it? Do you want to give gifts to support me?”
Sihwa smiled as she gave a peace sign in front of the camera on the phone.
The broadcast room was full of insults.
“I haven’t seen anyone rushing fans for presents! How about being more reserved? It’s such a waste of your face!”
“Ah, when I was in elementary school, I couldn’t wait to pile up some idioms that I’d learned in my composition class just like this…”
“That… who is in elementary school?”
“That’s unreasonable. Actually, those phrases were used quite well…”
With Sihwa starting her live broadcast, the broadcast room quickly became lively. In accordance with the usual practice, the newcomers first raised various doubts about her appearance, and old fans used cynical tones to mock the newcomers, lamenting that when they had first come, they had also thought the same. Some newcomers couldn’t stand the mocking and left the broadcast room, but most newcomers chose to observe silently.
Most anchors broadcasted live in the afternoon and evening because there were more idle people in the afternoon and evening, but conversely, the competition in the morning was not so fierce, and people could avoid the time of super anchor. Sihwa did live broadcasting every morning and managed to attract a large number of regular fans. After all, the live broadcast app was nationwide There were always people who were more leisurely in the morning, too.
Sihwa’s live room should have been regarded as a very strange live room. She didn’t play games, she didn’t have much talent, she never went out, and she even just soaked in the bathtub. She read a fairy tale, stumbling over the words, when she was happy, and when she was not happy, she lost her temper and argued with the fans.
The only way to communicate with fans was to be insulted by them, because her tone of voice was like the main character of a Mary Sue story, constantly having the feeling of being the best in the world. There was no shortage of points for people to use to attack, and some people even deliberately provoked her to make angry and enjoy the pleasure of being attacked by her. This was like the way primary school boys behaved to girls they liked, not to please them but to pull on their braids and frighten them by catching insects.
Still, who had asked her face to be so good looking? Besides, she was also a foreign sister who could speak fluent Chinese, which was a very rare attribute. But some careful netizens had found that she had a slight accent when she spoke Chinese, which was hard to detect if they didn’t pay attention to it. It seemed to be the accent of the eastern coastal areas.
“I’m telling you guys, I’m just living temporarily here to experience the life of the ordinary people. The luxury bathroom you saw before was my real home!”
It was Sihwa’s millionth time repeating that sentence, and even she herself believed it sometimes, but sadly she could not manage to trick the netizens.
“Oh, alright, next.”
“Don’t lower your head, your crown will fall off.”
“This is the so-called clueless young woman, right? She was probably corrupted by Korean dramas. When will she be given an electric shock by Professor Yang?”
“I have a question, broadcaster. You are always soaking in the bathtub. Won’t your skin wrinkle? I was in the swimming pool for half a day and my fingers were already bumpy.”
Sihwa automatically ignored the mocking and proudly showed her ten fingers that were like jade onions, shaking them in front of the camera.
“Don’t compare yourself to me. I am born beautiful like a fish in water!” she said triumphantly.
“F*ck! I have a hand fetish! I can’t stand it!”
“I could play with this hand for a year!”
“I could play for ten years!”
“I’m already done, what about you guys?”
Sihwa was constantly confused by the neverending online phrases, and asked, “What’s already done? Does that mean that you’ve already added money into your account and are preparing to send me gifts?”
Her natural tone and expression were not made up. They were very attractive and made people want to tease her. They also attracted a barrage of insults using bullet screens by netizens.
At that moment, someone knocked twice on the bathroom door.
She turned her head to look. It was Zhang Zian who was standing at the doorway. He pointed at his own mouth—of course, he did not mean that he wanted to drink the water in the bathtub. Instead he was expressing that he wanted to tell her something. He wanted to ask her if it was convenient for her to speak now.
She showed a cold expression. In her heart, she did not want to speak because every time when she spoke with him, she was angered because of his pettiness.
“I seem to have heard the sound of the door. Anchor, aren’t you going to open the door?”
“Right, anchor, go and open the door. I have never seen how the anchor looks below her shoulders.”
“Haha, you guys came too late. As an old timer in the live broadcast room, I’ve seen how she looks wearing a mermaid cosplay.”
Zhang Zian did not leave upon meeting trouble and still stood at the doorway of the bathroom, as if he wanted to compete with her on patience.
Sihwa did not want to waste phone battery just like that, and so she told the camera, “Is there still anyone who wants to give gifts? If there isn’t, I’ll go offline for a while. We can continue in a while! Five, four, three, two! Is there really not one? Really no one? Three, two, one, zero. Five…”
When she was speaking normally, people gave gifts once in a while, but when she specially asked for a present, no one gave any. She was so angry she bit her lower lip softly, and, throwing a tantrum, she left the live broadcast room before reaching zero.
“What do you want?” she asked, not politely.
“It’s like this. We’re going to Egypt, and I wanted to ask if you want to go.” Zhang Zian got straight to the point and said the reason why he had come.
Her eyebrows scrunched up, and her face was full of suspicion as she asked, “E-Egypt? Where is that? Why haven’t I heard about it before? You cheapskate, is it that you want to sell me to be a s*x slave?”
Zhang Zian said, “If you don’t know anything, can I ask you to shut your mouth and stop randomly guessing? Don’t always play with your cell phone. Read books, learn geography and history, and don’t be ignorant all day.”
“You’re the ignorant one!”
Before he finished, with Sihwa’s angry yell, a splash of water aimed for his head and face headed towards him.
Fortunately, he was prepared and stepped out of the bathroom, shutting the bathroom door without splashing water outside.
“Annoying! B*stard! Cheapskate!” She lost her temper alone in the bathroom and splashed water around. “Why should I learn? Anyway, no one taught me!”
It seems like even a salty fish had her own pride.
Zhang Zian waited outside for her to stop for a moment and rummaged through the storage room to find the globe from his childhood.
The globe was quite old and creaked when it was rotated. The division of some countries and regions was slightly different from that of today’s world, but it was still useful.
He knocked at the door again, then pushed it open a crack and said, “Alright, I said a little too much just now. I apologize. I’ll teach you some geography now—can I come in?”
It was not realistic to expect Sihwa to actively learn and absorb knowledge. After all, everyone had laziness. When was it more comfortable to study than play? From elementary school to university, once people left school, without outside supervision and pressure, very few would continue to take the initiative to learn. Not to mention this fish—she had too many things to learn, a myriad of thoughts, and no elementary school teachers. It was normal for her to not know where to start.
