Chapter 265: The Culinary God, Xiang Yi

‘Almost six million viewers?’

‘How is this possible?!!!’

Even for the livestreams of the top star-studded awards ceremonies in France, the total number of viewers would only be about ten million.

‘Yet, these two good-looking foreigners managed to garner almost six million viewers, just a few minutes into the livestream?’

‘It’s fake… It must be fake…’

The creative director was worried, and he wondered if the both of them had hired a hacker to edit the number of viewers in the livestream to satisfy the viscount’s requirement.

‘Such an unprofessional trick will definitely be discovered!’

The phone screen suddenly turned black and immediately afterward, there was a glitch in the livestream app that caused an auto-exit!

The creative director froze. He wondered with a guilty conscience, ‘Could it be…that the lie has been exposed so our livestream was blocked by MOON?’

He tapped the chat window with the viscount and tried to redeem himself, but before he could think of a good way to phrase his words, the viscount had calmly sent him a message.

[The developer of MOON Live have arranged for the computer programmers to fix the app.]

The creative director was puzzle. ‘Repair? What’s there to repair?’

Soon, MOON Live released an official statement that cleared the creative director’s doubts.

[Moon Live] : “Due to the abnormally high traffic of the website, the app server has crashed and is currently undergoing maintenance. Dear users, please temporarily use the web version of MOON to access the live-streams. We deeply apologize for the inconvenience caused.”

The creative director was dumbfounded and speechless.

He looked a little dazed and he thought, ‘So the numbers were real?’

When he came back to his senses again, he was flabbergasted!

The way he looked at Xiang Yi and Shi Sui changed immediately too.

‘Are these two using a bug!? They managed to garner so many fans to watch their livestream!’

Little did he know, while Shi Sui was indeed influential enough to garner such a high traffic volume, Li Jianyu and Xiang Feng had also contributed to the massive amount of viewers by helping with the promotion of the livestream.

When he saw Shi Sui’s and Xiang Yi’s post on Weibo, Li Jianyu shared the link to the livestream using the official account of “Two Under One Roof”, thus influencing numerous fans of the show to flock to the livestream.

Xiang Feng was even more straightforward. There was a strategic cooperation between Starry Live and MOON Live in the first place. Besides, as Xiang Yi’s uncle, he had to show his niece some support.

Hence, not only did he share the link on Weibo, he even posted the link on the web page of Starry Live, which would take a user who clicks on it directly to the page of MOON Live.

The high traffic volume that was resultant of the combined efforts of a few parties actually caused the livestream on MOON Live to crash for many users.

Fortunately, the livestream was still accessible and somewhat playable on the web version, though there were some glitches and lags here and there.

All the necessary equipment had been fully set up in the Presidential Suite. Xiang Yi was standing in front of the clean and spacious counter top and preparing the food ingredients with her head hung low, while Shi Sui helped her out with simple tasks. On the other hand, he was also chatting with the viewers of the livestream. He was truly a dedicated livestream host.

“Good afternoon,” Shi Sui said with a warm and gentlemanly smile as he interacted with the audience bilingually.

The comments in the live-stream were popping up rapidly:

——[Ahhhh, Brother Shi Sui is so dedicated to his work! He’s hosting a livestream even when he’s overseas!]

——[Has he been sponsored by MOON Live? Brother Shisui is really famous! He’s a mega celebrity no matter where he goes!]

——[Xiang Yi, it’s been hard on you in the mortal world today! You look so ethereal and fairy-like in that little floral dress! Uwu~]

——[Are her knife skills real? Wow, impressive, Xiang Yi, come help us chop up our food ingredients in the kitchen of our hotel.]

——[Hahahaha, you want Xiang Yi to help you cut the ingredients? Are you serious?]

There were also some comments from curious foreign viewers.

——[Are they going to cook Chinese cuisine?]

——[Oh, I hate Chinese food the most. They’re so greasy and weird, I doubt any humans would like Chinese food.]

——[Are they a married couple? They seem to share a good chemistry, and they look very loving too.]

…

Everyone watched as Xiang Yi, the young, bare-faced beauty, calmly placed the ingredients into the pot…

The first dish to be cooked was spicy stir-fried chicken!
