Chapter 58: I Support you!
[ Intermediate Mission panel ] unlocked.
The Intermediate Mission panel was the same as the beginner Mission panel in that it did not show the total number of missions available to her; the proceeding missions would likely only appear once she’d completed the first one.
Jiang Xun selected the first mission.
[ Do you wish to spend 5000 Merit Points to unlock the Intermediate Mission? ]
Jiang Xun was silent for a moment. “Hehe, if this mission doesn’t reward me with a lifespan of eight to ten years, I won’t let the system off lightly.”
Hearing that, the system went silent for a few moments as well before tentatively asking, “Host, how are you going to let me off?”
It wasn’t like she could hit it, after all.
Jiang Xun sneered. “Although I can’t hit you, I can scold you until you shut down every day.”
“...”
“I know that you’re bored and want to chat with me every day. I can scold you until you shut down, or I can ignore you and make you lose the only person you can talk to. Choose for yourself. Which one do you want?”
“... Don’t worry, Host. The rewards won’t let you down.”
If it couldn’t satisfy Jiang Xun, it would report to Jiang Xun until she was satisfied!
At first, Jiang Xun thought that she would be able to start the Mission as soon as she unlocked the Intermediate Mission Panel, but she did not expect to once again become broke. She still had to continue fighting for Merit Points.
Now that she thought about it, she still had to think of a way to get rid of the netizens.
Jiang Xun browsed through the comment section again. She saw that the seven netizens who had just been privately messaged by her were huddled together in a group of incompetence and fury.
Milk Candies: “Did I say anything wrong?! How can you prove that you did not induce vomiting after you logged off the stream?”
Scrap Pickers of the Past: “If you have the ability, then tell us how much exercise you do every day!”
Demonic Positioning: “I said that you needed to run 100 km a day. It’s reasonable, so do it!”
Ding Xiaoyi: “If you can’t prove it, we won’t ask you to pay 10,000 yuan. You can apologize to us instead.”
Their words also attracted the support of many netizens.
“That makes sense. Jiang Xun eats so much. She needs to have enough exercise to match it.”
There were also netizens who had turned to Jiang Xun’s side after the first two stunts.
“I advise you to be cautious and doubt it. Though her words sound unbelievable at first, when has she ever lied?”
“We didn’t believe that she could crush a boulder in her chest. But in the end? She really did it.”
“Some people questioned her appetite, but her live broadcast proved it was real.”
“Even if she went off-stream to induce vomiting, she did actually eat all that food during the live broadcast. It wasn’t a lie.”
Jiang Xun pursed her lips. “... Don’t speak up for me! Let them curse away!”
The system stared at her blankly.
“If they speak up for me and end up convincing those people, then who am I supposed to farm MP from?”
Jiang Xun felt that this wouldn’t do, so she registered an alternate account named (Jiangxun’s Hater).
“... Host, can you be more creative with your alternate account?”
“This way, people will be able to recognize me as a hater at a glance and feel at ease to boldly follow me.”
“Not even internet trolls are that stupid!”
Jiang Xun and Blackie: “What a joke. isn’t vomiting a waste of food? Why do you need to eat so much just to attract attention? After that, do you want to vomit again?”
Sand Fishing: “That’s right. So what if you eat it? Is vomiting supposed to be a good thing?”
Split underpants replied to Jiangxun’s Hater: “Friend, I advise you to change your name. Otherwise, Jiang Xun will take a screenshot of your username and humiliate you. That’s all a dog is good for anyway.”
Jiangxun’s Hater: “I’m not afraid! People like that shouldn’t be coddled!”
Dan Dan: “That’s right! I support you!”
Jiang Xun grinned maniacally. “See that?”
“...”
Forget it. Other, more sane people would make an account to speak up for themselves, but Jiang Xun made one to slander herself. No hater would believe such an absurd thing even if they saw it with their own eyes!
Upon seeing the hate comments, an idea popped into Jiang Xun’s head. After she went back to the dormitory, she started to prepare for it.

On Sunday, Jiang Xun was studying the map of imperial city in her dormitory when Daxin suddenly rushed inside with a bang, carrying a bag of snacks in her hand. “Lin Youyan just posted a video. I’ve sent it to our group. Quick, go watch it.”
As soon as Daxin finished speaking, the three of them received a notification on their phones at the same time.
Jiang Xun opened the video. Jiajia and Haina moved to her side and the three of them watched the video on her phone.
In the video, Lin Youyan was having a barbecue at an online celebrity kebab shop. She was gentle and leisurely eating the kebab while commenting on the taste of it. “Everyone must have a taste of this chicken meat. The chef has removed all the bones, and the meat tastes delicious and soft. Even if you come here with your boyfriend, you don’t have to worry about your image.”
Youyan smiled and said, “I’m still single, so I’m eating alone here purely to help everyone explore the shop. I’m just an ordinary girl with a big appetite. These things are just right for me. I Can’t be a glutton who eats a lot. After all, whether it’s faking your meal of vomiting everything out when you’re done, it’s all a waste of food in the end.”
“I’ll never stoop so low just for fame. I will never do such a thing.”
“This was a part of her Shanpin livestream yesterday. This clip was posted by someone else,” Daxin spat. “The only thing she’s not doing is directly naming you!
“What does Jiang Xun’s livestream have to do with her? Isn’t she also doing the same thing?” Haina said angrily. “Why’s she gotta be so passive aggressive?”
“A lot of people commented on it. They’re praising Lin Youyan and trampling on Jiang Xun at the same time,” Daxin noted as she scrolled through the comments of the video.
When Jiang Xun opened the comments, as expected, they were all praising Youyan.
“This is a streamer with actual positive energy”
“Yanyan, we don’t have to bother with Jiang Xun. What rubbish!”
“Our Yanyan is the best.”
“Why hasn’t Shanpin banned Jiang Xun?”
“Jiang Xun had lunch on the livestream yesterday afternoon, but Lin Youyan also had dinner on the livestream at night. Isn’t it obvious who she’s referring to?” Jiajia’s face was sullen.
“Yeah, Jiang Xun isn’t on the same playing field as she is. Lin Youyan relies on her looks, but Jiang Xun relies on her content. Does she think she can do the same?” Daxin said indignantly.
“Jiang Xun’s fans are growing too fast, and people are talking about her a lot. Youyan’s video content is too simple—she either dances, does makeup tutorials, and puts on clothes in the sun. It’s not as diverse as Jiang Xun’s.”
“It won’t be long before Jiang Xun overtakes her, so wouldn’t she try to crush Jiang Xun?”Haina analyzed rationally, “Moreover, although she won by a small number of votes in the previous election, it was an unfair victory because Jiang Xun didn’t want to compete with her in the first place. But they’re both in the same school, so it’s inevitable that they’ll be compared.”
“Jiang Xun, what do you plan to do?” Jiajia asked.
“Nothing. I’m not doing another lunch stream.” Jiang Xun snorted. “I’ve already thought of what to stream next week. If she’s capable, she will continue to learn from me.”
