Miss Lin is a hunky VTuber today?

"As punishment, please select one of the livers in the company to say a confession line, which must be at least fifteen characters long."

These punishments were all given to Xueyue by the operations team on a whim, depending on who was being punished. After all, what is a punishment for some people might be a reward for others. With so many operations team members watching, they certainly couldn't make things too rigid.

"Ah... well, then I'll choose Xueyue-nee."

Sal's big eyes darted around, his desire to pull a prank growing stronger.

"ha!??"

"Alright, let me see what kind of confession you can come up with."

Xueyue turned to look at the screen and found that the activity level of the bullet comments had instantly increased by several percentage points, so she simply stopped refusing.

Although it was a little strange to be confessed to by Sal, she was still happy to sacrifice it for the sake of the show.

"Okay, I'll tell you then~"

Sal spoke in a childish voice, and his gaze toward Xueyue instantly became sincere and ardent.

"Sister Xueyue, you may not believe me, but what I'm about to say is all from the heart."

His voice gradually became serious and handsome, completely different from his usual childish voice. This was because he knew Xueyue's weakness and had specially adjusted his voice.

“It’s been almost three months since you joined the company. I still remember the day I first received your message.”

"You may not know this, but before this, very few people would contact me first. Everyone just chats occasionally in the group. You are the first person to greet me in private without talking about work at all, Sister Xueyue."

"Although my seniors in the company have taken good care of me, such as Senior Wakaba, Sister Yiyi, and Miss Sakura, it seems that it's only because I'm their junior. Only you, only Sister Yukizuki, are having a deeper conversation with me."

Sal's words became more and more serious, but he just stood there, calm and deep in thought, as if he had forgotten that he was on a live stream and that he was an ESC Liver.

In his eyes, there was only Xueyue, the girl.

"So, I figured since I don't have much to do anyway, and I just spend my free time playing games, I might as well chat with you a bit more."

Sal chuckled softly as he spoke.

Xueyue's face turned slightly red.

"Sael, wait a minute!"

"I can't wait! I can't wait! Sister Xueyue! No! Xueyue!"

"I'm going to tell you today, no matter what your reply is, I'm going to tell you, Snow Moon."

"I like you."

"Yamero!!! This is so embarrassing! Is this punishment for Thrall or for me?!"

Xueyue's face was already red to the tips of her ears! That little bastard Sal even used a voice specifically designed to target her! The impact was a bit too strong.

"How was my acting, Wakaba-senpai?!"

Sal completely ignored Xueyue's shyness and said to Xu Lin with a grin.

"Sabao, what a scumbag."

Xu Lin gave him a thumbs up.

Section 70, Chapter Seventy: How often do Sakura and Wakaba usually go shopping together?

"Sabao, what a scumbag."

Xu Lin was indeed serious when he said that. After all, although Sal had never been in a relationship, he lived a life like the male protagonist of a harem anime. Many girls often surrounded him at school, and he had a large group of female fans online.

"Wakaba-senpai! Why are you just watching, Wakaba-senpai!"

Xueyue shouted indignantly, very dissatisfied with Xu Lin's behavior of watching the show.

What else can I do if I don't keep an eye on things?

Xu Lin shrugged, his delicate face full of innocence.

"You shared a bag of snacks with me before, right? Hosting takes a lot of energy!"

"Oh, this..."

Xu Lin's expression froze for a moment.

She really didn't prepare any snacks for anyone else; she only bought the ones that she and Xu Youyue liked. It wasn't that she was unwilling to spend money; it was just that she couldn't carry enough snacks for everyone.

"Then...this can of Want Want milk is for you."

With a reluctant expression, Xu Lin took out a can of Want Want milk from the bag. This was something she had saved to drink with bread as a late-night snack!

"Hi~ Thank you, senior!"

Xueyue happily accepted the Want Want drink, then immediately opened it and took a sip.

She wasn't unaware of the reluctance on Xu Lin's face; it was precisely because she noticed it that she decided to take a sip directly.

Who told that unscrupulous senior to keep badmouthing her from behind! She deserved it!

"So, next one, well, since this is a world where Zero Moon doesn't exist, the next one is the first generation seniors, Sakura-senpai~ Sakura-senpai, are you ready?"

Xueyue happily called out to Xu Youyue, and then took the opportunity to torment Lingyue once again.

"Ah, I'm ready, come on."

Xu Youyue quickly took a sip of cola to swallow the potato chips in her mouth, then suppressed the urge to burp and adjusted her voice to reply.

"Okay, then please go and get ready in front of the lie detector, Sakura-senpai. I'm going to start reading the questions now."

Question 1! Who is Sakura-sama's favorite Liver from our headquarters?

"This, this is of course Sister Yi! Sister Yi is so gentle, beautiful, and has such long legs, why would I even need to choose? Besides, we've been best friends for years!"

Xu Youyue answered directly without hesitation.

The moment she saw the lie detector at the start of the collaboration, she knew there was no way things would end well today, so how could she not be prepared?

"Oh? Sakura, do you really like me the most?"

Sister Yan, on the other hand, gave her a cool, sidelong glance, and the words she uttered clearly betrayed her distrust.

"Of course! I like Yi the most... Ah!!"

Xu Youyue was shocked before she could even finish speaking, causing everyone except Xu Lin to burst into laughter. The comments section was also flooded with messages. Xueyue stared at the screen for a long time before she could make out a few of the comments.

【Girls】

[Hahahaha, Miss, you...]

[Where's Wakaba-nii? Hurry up and bring him up!]

"Wakaba, what do you say?"

Sister Yan nudged Xu Lin with her elbow, her eyes full of teasing laughter.

As she spoke, everyone stopped laughing and waited with anticipation for this scumbag white-haired man to speak.

"You guys are weird. So what if the young lady's favorite isn't Yi Yi? Why are you looking at me like that? Let's be reasonable, audience. How am I supposed to know who the young lady likes?"

Xu Lin remained calm and composed, desperately trying to explain, but whether the audience believed her or not was unknown. In any case, not a single person present, from Liver to the management, believed her nonsense.

【It Doesn't Matter】

【Liking Someone Else】

【Let's Get Reasoned, Audience】

Well, it seems the audience doesn't believe it either →_→

"Sakura-senpai, what do we say now? Continue answering questions or accept the punishment?"

Xueyue was also suppressing a laugh, and her voice was even a little unsteady.

"I! I choose to continue answering the questions!"

The young lady's face was flushed red as she gritted her teeth, determined to fight this damn lie detector to the end!

"Hey! Miss, have you forgotten what I just told you? It's better to be punished than to keep answering questions! The operations team is waiting for you here!"

Xu Lin panicked.

Before the competition, Xu Lin, who had already seen through the operations team's ill intentions, repeatedly reminded Xu Youyue not to be stubborn. The second question might be something strange, and if she failed the first round, she should just accept the penalty.

result. . .

You can't handle a shy, arrogant person like that!

The younger generation didn't complain this time, mainly because they saw that the young lady was really shy and they couldn't say anything. Only Sister Yan dared to cause trouble. Who else wasn't afraid of Xu Lin's subsequent retaliation?

But even without complaining, for someone as thin-skinned as Miss Xu, being teased about this kind of thing was enough to make her lose her temper.

"Okay, then let's move on to the second question. Are you really alright, senior? You can still give up now."

As Xueyue spoke, she still glanced at Xu Youyue with concern.

"It's okay! I don't believe it! How could this lie detector give me two wrong answers in a row when I'm telling the truth!?"

Who knows if what you said is true, senior...?

Xueyue mentally complained, but verbally she still did what a host should do.

"Okay, let's look at question 2."

"How often do you and Wakaba usually go out together? Just tell me about the last month."

Oh no, we're doomed.

Xu Lin felt doomed as soon as this question came up.

This question may not seem as damaging as the previous one, but if Xu Youyue tells the truth, then all their previous efforts to build friendships will have been in vain.

after all.

Whose friends go out together every day?

These two are currently living together. If going out to buy groceries together counts, then they probably do it more than once a day!

"Um... let me count."
