Chapter 581: – Daily Live Stream
The sudden arrival of her period tortured Lin Jin a lot.
However, she had been practicing dance almost every two or three days lately. Combined with her weekly dance videos, her physical fitness had already reached a decent level.
Although it couldn’t compare to how she used to be back when she was a boy, she was still in better shape than most girls.
Because of this, Lin Jin’s period didn’t torture her too badly, it just caused her to feel uncomfortable all over. Added with the constant slight pain in her lower abdomen, she felt a little irritable all the time.
“Xia Tian, where are you going?”
When Lin Jin woke up the next day, she saw Xia Tian dressed in a formal suit.
“Someone booked a wedding. I’m planning to go find an employee who has experience organizing weddings, and I also need to discuss the price with the customer today.” Xia Tian put on his suit and tied a bow tie, then turned around and continued “Our shop handled our engagement party and your dad’s wedding before, right? I felt it was a bit off, none of us at the restaurant had ever done this kind of thing before after all. The manager hasn’t either.”
“Oh, I see.”
“Mhm. So today I made an appointment with someone who has experience in this. Apparently their old job was specialized in organizing weddings, so they’re quite experienced.”
As Xia Tian spoke, he stood in front of the full length mirror in the bedroom. He neatened his clothes for a bit, then picked up his briefcase and got ready to leave.
“I’ll be back around four in the afternoon. If you don’t feel like streaming, then don’t, wait for me to come back.”
“Got it. Go ahead.”
Lin Jin yawned, covered her stomach with her hands, and rolled over.
The constant slight pain in her stomach felt unbearable last night, making it impossible for her to rest. She had gone to bed at eleven, but because of the pain, didn’t end up falling asleep until after three in the morning.
She still felt really sleepy right now. Glancing at the time, she saw it was only a bit after eight, and when she saw Xia Tian leave the bedroom, she pulled the covers over her head and fell asleep again.
Lin Jin slept until twelve at noon and was only woken up from her hungry stomach grumbling in protest.
She got up in a daze, sat cross legged at the head of the bed, and blankly stared at the ceiling.
“I think I need to change my pad, right?”
Lin Jin had already gotten her period before, so she was quite familiar with it.
She quickly washed up, changed into a new pad, and then went to the computer in the streaming room. While waiting for the computer to start up, she ordered takeout.
Since she hadn’t gone grocery shopping that morning, there was nothing at home. Lin Jin felt too lazy to cook and simply ordered takeout.
Xia Tian still wasn’t back yet, so Lin Jin felt it didn’t matter what she ate.
If Xia Tian were home, she would definitely rush downstairs to buy groceries and cook up a healthy, nutritious lunch, rather than ordering takeout that was oily, salty, and not maybe unfresh.
She yawned, checked the computer, and saw that the Stardew Valley game she checked out last night had finished downloading, so she started the live stream.
Even though she was a bit fed up with streaming and even though Xia Tian had said that she could just wait until he was back if she didn’t want to stream, Lin Jin still felt that she shouldn’t just pile everything on him.
After all, he was also busy.
“Hello everyone.”
Seeing that the live stream had started, Lin Jin weakly greeted the viewers, and then opened Stardew Valley. Propping her cheek on one hand, she began streaming with a somewhat unhappy expression on her face.
Why did Lin Jin’s emotions always seem to explode recently?
Last time she blew up, she yelled at a bunch of teammates which ended up as a trending topic on Weibo that day. Although the incident had gradually calmed down, almost all the viewers in the stream still remembered it.
That kind of thing wouldn’t happen again today, right?
Then they saw that Lin Jin was playing a single player game this time, and it was Stardew Valley, which was supposedly super casual.
Although it’s called a casual game, Stardew Valley is actually like an immortal cultivation game. Apparently, some people played this game so much they wouldn't stop playing until dawn.
Anyway, nearly all economy simulator games like this looked casual on the surface but were actually secretly hardcore.
Lin Jin was pretty interested in this kind of game. When she was little, her family had a Game Boy handheld. At that time, she especially loved playing Harvest Moon on it, and this Stardew Valley was said to be a tribute to Harvest Moon.
The game had been out for several years, but Lin Jin never had the time to try it before. Now she had time and could also stream it, which was quite nice.
As she controlled her in game character to farm and chop trees, Lin Jin casually chatted with her viewers.
Even though Lin Jin wasn’t in a very good mood because of the stomach pain, if she didn’t talk to the viewers while streaming, especially with this kind of game, the viewers would find it really boring.
After all, even though this game was like an immortal cultivation game, only the player themself could really get immersed in it. The viewers would not find it very interesting.
“Well, I’ve never played this game before, but you must need to craft two chests at the start, right? I heard there’s a system where you get rewards for collecting things, so I should keep a copy of everything?”
Lin Jin tilted her head, chatting as she talked with the in game NPC to complete the initial quest. She yawned and continued saying: “Apparently fishing is really good in the beginning of the game, right? Then how do I get a fishing rod?”
As a streamer, she basically didn’t need to use her brain when playing games like this. This was because the cloud players in chat will very promptly provide tips, even to the point of wanting to control every move the streamer made.
“On the second day, you can go to the beach to get the fishing rod. For fishing, it’s better to go near the mines.”
“At the start, plant all the spring seeds and save a copy of each. Grow some more parsnips, save the gold ones, you’ll need it later.”
Lin Jin glanced at the screen beside her, watching the viewers guide her step by step, saving her the trouble of searching on Baidu.
If she didn’t understand something, just ask the viewers.
Even though the live stream only had a thousand or so viewers when starting, as long as a tenth of these people had played or watched Stardew Valley before, they would be able to help Lin Jin out.
If it were any other streamer, they would definitely get annoyed at being directed around by the viewers. But Lin Jin had no idea how to play this game, so the viewer’s instructions and chatting felt helpful to her.
She smoothly made it through her first spring in Stardew Valley. Lin Jin took a break for lunch in the middle, and then spent a lot of time digging in the mines with a confused face, unable to find a ladder.
Then Xia Tian came back.
