"Oh, Jiang Cai’Er, you mean our school’s top female scholar!" The security guard got excited the moment he heard the name, his expression animated as he spoke. "That little girl is a celebrity at our school. Whenever there’s an awards ceremony, her name is always called. I think she recently placed first in the entire province on a joint exam. Goodness me, I’ve worked at this school for so many years and I’ve never met a student so capable and so smart."

Jiang Cai’Er was, of course, the school’s ’it girl,’ known by everyone from the principal down to the security guards and the cafeteria ladies who served the food. The cafeteria ladies would always give her a little extra, their hands never shaking.

So, the very enthusiastic security guard took the initiative to call Jiang Cai’Er’s homeroom teacher. He said her brother was here to drop something off for her at the gate.

After hanging up, Li Xiang and the guard stood by the gate, chatting and smoking.

A little while later, Jiang Cai’Er came out, looking very happy.

"Brother, what are you doing here? Wow, my favorite chocolate! And so much milk tea, how am I supposed to drink it all?"

Her eyes curved into cute little crescents as she smiled.

"You can share the milk tea with your best friends," Li Xiang said, pinching her cheek. He then stuffed a thousand yuan into her hand for pocket money and explained that he was livestreaming for the county government. He wouldn’t be home for a few days, as he was staying at the county guesthouse and getting free room and board.

"Brother, you’re amazing! You’re actually livestreaming for the county government!" Jiang Cai’Er was proud of him and wanted to chat longer. However, evening self-study wasn’t over yet, and the teacher was still in the classroom. She couldn’t stay outside for too long, so she hurried back.

When the security guard heard that Li Xiang was participating in the county government’s livestreaming initiative to help farmers, he was very interested and kept Li Xiang chatting for several more minutes.

...

Livestream selling wasn’t just about talking nonstop. That would just annoy the audience.

What was the point of constantly shouting, "Three, two, one, drop the link!"? If you kept shouting that, your followers would all leave. So, occasionally, Li Xiang and his team would also showcase their talents to liven up the atmosphere in the stream.

For instance, Li Xiang would take out a long flute and play songs like "The Myth," "Desolate Celestial Emperor," and "The Legend of Sword and Fairy Theme."

While Li Xiang played the flute, Zhao Xueqing, Yao Yao, and Lei Xiaohui would dance behind him. One was bright and pure, one was charming and captivating, and one was heroic and valiant. Whenever this happened, the stream’s popularity would soar, with a constant stream of gifts and likes.

They were using Li Xiang’s personal account, so these gifts naturally counted as their revenue. However, Li Xiang decided to donate all the proceeds to the government’s poverty alleviation and agricultural support programs.

The county’s Poverty Alleviation Office was incredibly grateful when they heard about it, expressing their sincere thanks and high praise for Li Xiang.

The Poverty Alleviation Office entrusted the county’s Charity Federation to handle the funds.

Over the past few days of streaming, Li Xiang’s account had received a considerable amount of donations.

Once Li Xiang donated, could the other streamers not donate? Even though they didn’t have much money, showing the right attitude was important, so they had no choice but to follow suit.

Some streamers cursed Li Xiang in private: "You and your high horse! So you think you’re so great!"

Of course, Li Xiang couldn’t hear them cursing him behind his back. He was too busy. All that mattered was following his own conscience.

Besides, people will talk. You can’t just go around sewing everyone’s mouth shut.

Whenever Luo Feifei had free time, she would watch Li Xiang’s stream and send gifts to show her support. Every time she watched the other girls perform, she couldn’t help but curl her vermilion lips. ’Is that all they’ve got? If I were there, these ’big sisters’ would be completely overshadowed.’

She imagined herself suddenly joining Li Xiang’s stream—yes, as an invited guest—and then outshining everyone, becoming an internet sensation overnight. A captivating smile curved her lips at the thought.

’What a pity. No one invited me. Otherwise, great-nephew, your follower count would break ten million overnight!’ Luo Feifei sighed softly. Then, remembering how Li Xiang called her "Little Aunt," she couldn’t help but smile knowingly.

In reality, it had never even crossed the minds of Li Xiang, his team, or the county government. Invite a top-tier actress with over a hundred million fans? Were they kidding? How could a poor, remote place like theirs possibly afford it?

Some major influencers with tens of millions of fans admired the Little Celestial Immortal and wanted to invite her as a guest on their streams, but the Little Celestial Immortal would just refuse them flat out. People said that for someone so young, she was unusually aloof.

This was especially true after she mastered the Divination Technique. She would inadvertently act the part of a transcendent master, which made her seem even more aloof.

A male celebrity she was co-starring with didn’t believe that Luo Feifei could have mastered the Divination Technique at such a young age. So, during a break from filming, he asked her to perform a divination for him.

Luo Feifei said, "I never perform Divinations for free."

The actor asked, "How much?"

Luo Feifei held up three fingers.

The actor was surprised. "Three hundred thousand?"

Luo Feifei replied, "Three million!"

The onlookers were in an uproar. The actor himself sucked in a sharp breath. He wanted to make Luo Feifei look like a fool, so he gritted his teeth and transferred three million on the spot.

And so, Luo Feifei began the Divination.

Everyone around them watched with bated breath.

A moment later, Luo Feifei said, "I’m afraid you will suffer a bloody disaster soon. You should be careful."

The actor burst out laughing, not believing her at all. As a result, while filming a wire-stunt scene that afternoon, there was a sudden accident. He fell from a height of over five meters and fractured his lower leg.

Everyone: "..."

The Director: "..."

Ever since that incident, whenever directors started a new film, they would pay a hefty sum to have Luo Feifei perform a Divination to see if the shoot would go smoothly or if the box office would be a success.

The films Luo Feifei participated in were naturally huge hits. Even for films she wasn’t in, people would come to ask for a Divination, and her predictions were always remarkably accurate. The Little Celestial Immortal’s status in the industry grew even higher. Many directors treated her as an honored guest and didn’t dare to offend her.

However, there were also some nasty rumors. Some said the reason her predictions were so accurate was that she was "raising a ghost." Against these enemies who slandered and defamed her, Luo Feifei’s mother showed no mercy, directly serving them with a lawyer’s letter. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

On the second day of the livestream, Li Xiang and his team’s results were still impressive. They were far ahead of the competition, leaving everyone else in the dust with over eight million in sales!

The sales of all the other streamers combined didn’t even match a fraction of Li Xiang’s.

The restaurant owner who had dealings with Li Xiang before also came across his livestream. ’Brother Xiang is incredible,’ he thought. ’He even got invited by the government to do an event.’ He entered the stream to show his support, sent some gifts, and initiated a video call to invite him to dinner that evening.

So, after the stream ended, Li Xiang didn’t eat at the cafeteria in the county government compound. Instead, he took the three girls to the banquet.

They didn’t even change their clothes, heading out directly in their Hanfu and turning heads everywhere they went.

The restaurant owner treated them to a magnificent feast, which was much better than the cafeteria food. The cafeteria, after all, served functional meals, not luxurious ones.

The dinner was well worth the expense for him. When the four of them entered the restaurant in their historical costumes—the man handsome, the women beautiful—they attracted a crowd of onlookers and admirers. People started taking pictures and posting them on their WeChat Moments and Douyin. Without the owner having to lift a finger, the restaurant became a local hot topic.

The looks of the three girls—Zhao Xueqing, Yao Yao, and Lei Xiaohui—were all top-notch. Even Lei Xiaohui, who might be considered the plainest of the three, was incredibly eye-catching in a crowd due to her tall, slender figure.

Not to mention her cool suit of Armor and Hua Mulan-style makeup, which was enough to slay both men and women.

Li Xiang himself was already handsome, and he was walking with three beautiful women, each with her own unique charm. As they strolled through the night market after dinner, they were almost too eye-catching.

"Brother~, please take a video for me! I want to dance here!" Yao Yao said, spotting an empty alley bathed in the hazy glow of a streetlight. The urge to dance suddenly overcame her, and she leaped with joy, her water sleeves fluttering.
