Chapter 980: Chapter 409: The Magic of Northeast Cuisine—Irresistible Even When You’re Full! Dundun’s Live Broadcast!

"Is it possible that Dundun is actually the true master of the Lin Family?"

"..."

The stream hasn’t even started yet, but the anticipation is already building.

However, Lin Xu doesn’t really care about that; he just wants Dundun to enjoy the thrill of speaking.

At seven in the evening, as night falls outside, the live stream officially begins.

"Hello everyone, I’m Lin Xu. As you all know, Dundun didn’t get enough of speaking this morning, and has been unhappy. So tonight, we’re doing this live stream to let it continue speaking. To keep this stream pure, I’ve just disabled the tipping function. If you like Dundun, just give a thumbs up, no need to tip."

Disabling the tipping function was the result of a discussion between Lin Xu and Shen Baobao.

This little guy is quite a money magnet. With it streaming, tips would definitely come pouring in nonstop. These large tips are likely to cause controversy and might even attract various advertisers competing for the top spot in the live room.

To avoid unnecessary trouble, it’s better to turn off the tipping function.

His words made the netizens who had flocked in suddenly boil over.

"Boss Lin is truly clear-headed."

"I was worried before coming that Dundun would eventually be overwhelmed by capital, becoming a mere money-making tool and lose its essence. Now it seems I was overthinking."

"I just topped up a hundred bucks, hoping to buy the little darling a chicken leg."

"For some reason, after hearing Boss Lin’s words, I like their family even more."

"Boss Lin is hitting all the right spots for me."

"I’m a fan, I’m a fan. Who wouldn’t like a Boss Lin like this!"

"..."

In the garage of the West Fourth Ring Villa, Shen Guofu, who had just topped up his account with hundreds of thousands of yuan, frowned:

"Could’ve told me sooner; I just spent ages processing the top-up."

Beside him, studying a bike, Han Shuzhen rolled her eyes at him:

"I told you to call and check first. You insisted on giving a surprise. Well, are you surprised now?"

Shen Guofu scratched his head:

"Then what about the money? Can it be refunded?"

"I don’t think it can be refunded. Unless you claim you’re underage..."

Han Shuzhen originally thought their daughter just bought a road bike worth one or two thousand yuan, even mentioned not needing a car for mountain trips, just ride the bike.

But when they got home, she found out the bike’s price tag had six digits.

If left at the bottom of a mountain for hiking, bike thieves wouldn’t even leave the pedals.

She fiddled a bit and said with a laugh:

"Always said Yueyue is a black-hearted little cotton jacket, never thought this girl was quite considerate."

Shen Guofu was still fretting over the top-up:

"Zhenzhen, why don’t you call the platform and say an elementary school kid recklessly topped up the account and ask them to refund the money?"

Han Shuzhen burst out laughing:

"Fussing over some money—you can just tip whoever’s streaming next time... why rack your brains to get a refund?"

"Not tipping Dundun feels like losing billions."

Han Shuzhen gave her husband a half-serious smile:

"Want me to pretend to be your guardian, then what do you say to elders, Little Guofu?"

Shen Guofu: ??????

Wife, you keep provoking me like this, tonight’s workout might have to move.

In Lin Xu’s home.

After greeting everyone, Lin Xu placed two dishes on the table, one deeper with clear water and another shallower with five or six little fish snacks.

To prevent the little guy from tiring out, he prepared snacks and drinks.

The table even had a cashmere blanket, convenient for Dundun to rest on if it’s tired.

With everything ready, Lin Xu adjusted the microphone, rubbed Dundun’s big head, and said:

"Alright, little village chief, you can address your villagers now."

Having said that, he walked off from the camera’s view and sat on the sofa nearby, watching the live chat’s dynamics.

"Meow meow meow..."

Soon, Dundun cleared its throat and meowed into the microphone a few times.

On the streaming screen, a flood of "meow meow meow" comments appeared immediately, as the cloud villagers of Meow Village warmly greeted the village chief.

The little guy seemed to have found the vibe from this morning, dipped its head for a few sips of water, and then officially began.

"Meow meow meow... Niániá... Oh~... Wahōō... Kakaka... Jiéjié... Ahōō..."

Lin Xu discovered Dundun was not only letting loose today, but even its syllables evolved from simple meows to diverse variations.

He hadn’t thought a cat’s language could be so varied.

Though he couldn’t comprehend the meaning of these syllables, there was likely some significance if the little guy could articulate them.

Unfortunately, the point mall doesn’t offer a cat language translation; otherwise, no matter the cost, he’d exchange for it to understand what the little guy is talking about.

Not only was Lin Xu curious, but increasingly, netizens were analyzing Dundun’s language as well.

"Never thought a cat’s language would be this rich; thought they’d only meow."

"As an agronomy university graduate student, I really want to tell everyone, cats only use ’meow meow meow’ when communicating with humans; amongst themselves, they use all sorts of quirky syllables."

"Right, I watched a cat language compilation last time, not a single ’meow meow meow’ throughout."

"More useless knowledge added."

"So is Dundun treating us like cats?"

"Don’t know, but watching its serious demeanor just makes me want to cuddle it!"

Seeing the strings of comments and content in the commentary section, Lin Xu felt somewhat relieved as long as nobody was causing trouble; worrying someone might take the chance to spam adverts or the likes.

After observing for a while, he flipped through the rankings.

Due to not enabling tips, the stream’s popularity didn’t surge to the top; it was now hovering around the top twenty on the overall list, a bit challenging to reach the top.

But a bit of challenge is fine; in any case, this account is just for Dundun’s entertainment.

No tipping, no interaction. Enjoy if you like; leave if you don’t.

With Dundun streaming nearby, Lin Xu couldn’t watch TV, so he brought out the set of ancient books Professor Ren had sent him, diligently flipping through the recipes inside.

As he was browsing, suddenly, a system prompt sounded in his mind:

"Congratulations to the host for supporting a pet to live stream and completing the hidden task [Pet Live Streaming], earning a Perfect Level dish - Braised Meatballs, congratulations host."
