Transmigration of the Famous Cyber Star

Chapter 41: Notice For The Audition

Liu Man’s old fans were mostly young girls, but her new fans were mostly male. The men were quite crude when they spoke, but they were very munificent when they spammed presents.

The men were also quite upright. They stopped giving her presents when Liu Man told them not to.

Her female fans, however, started to send her presents at this moment.

Peach is a fairy gifted you 52 Hearts;

I’m here for the shoes gifted you 52 Hearts

I’m Tingting gifted you 52 Hearts

Dragon’s Roar gifted you 52 Hearts

Where there’s a cat, there’s me gifted you 52 Hearts

…

Otaku Boy gifted you 520 Hearts.

“Thank you so much for giving me that calligraphy work. This year’s about to end, and I only have this bit of money right now. When school reopens, I’ll take some part-time jobs and earn more money, and then I’ll return all of the rest of the money to you.” — Otaku Boy.

Otaku Boy discreetly wrote down this comment before sending it out.

He was a very smart boy. Learning, up from his youth, was something that couldn’t have been simpler. After he easily got into Capital University, he became even more relaxed. He would skip classes, be tardy, play video games, and watch live-streams. Even if he studied at the last moment before an exam, he would still be able to get a really high score.

Maybe it was at that moment when he realized, he needed to improve. He needed to learn more and learn how to earn more money. He needed to be able to deserve Princess Man’s hope towards him.

After ending the live-stream, Liu Man received many private messages. She first selected those addresses that she needed to send calligraphy works to. The rest were asking for ways to contact her.

“Sis, my WeChat ID is XXXXXXX, can you please friend me?” — Peach is a fairy.

Liu Man added her on WeChat without a moment of hesitation. Peach is a fairy’s WeChat nickname was just “Peach.”

After she sent out a friend request, Peach accepted her within just a second.

“Wow, I was just hoping against hope. I didn’t expect you to add me! I’m feeling so glad right now.”

Before Liu Man could reply, she sent another message, “Sis, you go to school at Capital City, right? I’m also in Capital City right now, and I’m in my senior year. I go to the economic management major at Jinhua University. Which school do you go to?”

The Capital University and Jinhua University were two of the best universities out of the whole country. Liu Man never thought that Peach is a fairy would be a top student too.

TL’s Note: Just a fun fact, this author’s probably insinuating Peking University (Beijing University) And Qinghua University.

“I study piano at the Capital City Music University. I should be the one to call you sis since I’m only in my sophomore year.”

“Hahaha, ‘sis’ is just a way to call someone, not someone who’s older. You should call me sister,” She sent a cute round-faced emoji.

Liu Man really felt that the names of people who lived in the modern world were messy. She didn’t know what she should reply to.

Peach said at this time, “During the past few live-streams, you filmed some of your interactions with Daylight. I edited them and put them into a small video. Do you want to post it onto your Weibo?”

Liu Man felt touched and surprised. Even she didn’t consciously edit a video for her cat, “Wouldn’t that trouble you too much though?”

“Haha, not really. I really like cats, but my family doesn’t let me keep one as a pet. I also like to edit videos. If it weren’t for my family stopping, I would’ve gone to study the directing major at Capital City Film Academy. I have to have something to do as my hobby. I’m now going to send you a video that I just edited.”

“Thank you, really. Thank you so much.” Except for saying thank you, Liu Man had no idea what else she could say. She really appreciated, with all her heart, what Peach did.

Peach didn’t send another message, but sent, one by one, 11 short videos.

These videos were very delicate, Peach captured every moment of Daylight being dumbly cute – yawning, stretching, blinking, staring off to space, licking her fur… She also put on a filter that made the videos seem warm-colored. The warm light source and the clips that were closely put together, made the cat look even prettier when it had already been so cute.

“You’re so good at this,” Liu Man typed.

Peach jokingly answered, “Don’t compliment me, or I’ll be too proud.”

Liu Man uploaded the 11 videos that Peach had sent her onto her Weibo account.

Yu Zhan had been very busy that day. Because he had missed Liu Man’s live-stream, he was feeling a bit empty inside, and so he went to check on Liu Man’s WeChat moments—there was no new content. He realized he had followed Liu Man’s Weibo account, so he logged on and coincidentally saw the videos just as she had posted.

As he watched these cute cat videos, the corners of his lips couldn’t resist but go up. His fingers clicked a few times, and he re-posted all eleven of those videos.

These days, Liu Man had earned almost a hundred thousand RMB just by selling her calligraphy works.

She took some time to open an account at the bank and saved all her money onto a card. She could take it out anytime whenever her mother needed money.

She then bought some more rice-papers on Taobao, as she was planning to earn some more money with her calligraphy. She didn’t expect that Professor Qiu, who hadn’t been talking to her for such a long time, had suddenly sent her a WeChat message.

“Hello, Ms. Liu Man, do you have time tomorrow?”

Liu Man didn’t dare to let Professor Qiu wait, so she immediately responded, “Yes, I do. I always have time, since I’m now on winter break.”

“There’s an audition tomorrow morning at ten. Please come to this address: XXXX Avenue, number 186 Galaxy Building, floor 23, room 417.

Liu Man didn’t dare to ask anything else, so she only said, “Okay, I’ll be there on time.”

Professor Qiu didn’t send anything else.

Liu Man stared at the simple chat history between her and Professor Qiu and went into a trance. She didn’t know how to prepare for this audition.

She wanted to ask Li Xiaoru and Wang Nina, so she opened up the group chat window. But then, she hesitated a little and exited the group chat again.

At this time, the chat window between her and Peach had gone into her view. She thought for a moment, then started to type:

“Good morning, sister.”

Peach responded within a few seconds, once again, “Oh, hey. I feel so uncomfortable with such a formal greeting, but I do like how you call me. What’s up?”

“I just wanted to ask you how I should attend an interview. I have an interview tomorrow,” Liu Man thought that since Peach was about to graduate from college, she should have had some experience on finding a job.

“Interview? Why are you suddenly getting interviewed? Aren’t you still in your sophomore year?”

“I found a part-time job for winter break.”

“Oh, oh, oh… I feel like you could already earn enough just by live-streaming, but you’re also trying to get a part-time job! You’re working so hard.”

“I really need money right now.”

Liu Man felt that there’s nothing embarrassing to say it like that.

“Alright, alright… Let me think for a moment. To be honest, I’ve only gone to interviews not so many times.”

After a while, Peach sent another message,

“First of all, don’t be tardy. When’s your interview tomorrow?”

“10 o’ clock.”

“Then it’d be best if you arrived at nine-thirty.”

“Alright.”

“You’re only twenty, so don’t put on too much make-up. Just make sure that your make-up and clothing are adequate and fitting for your age.”

“Mhm.”

“I haven’t gotten a part-time job before, but I guess that there must be a lot of people trying to get a part-time job these days. When you go there, you’ll probably have to wait. When you wait, don’t play with your phone. You can even stare into a wall, just don’t play with your phone.”

“I have no problem with that,” Liu Man had never been addicted to phones anyway.

“Also, what kind of job are you interviewing for? Is it related to your major, piano?”

“Kind of.”

“Then, I can’t give you any more suggestions on the interview content. Just don’t be too nervous, and I think you’ll be just fine.”
