"How's this place? Pretty good, huh?"
From Guan Shimeng's expression, it was apparent that she was quite content with the environment of the vocal music room. When Xu Fan asked, she smiled sweetly, "I really like this place, Xu Fan. How did you find it?"
"I just can't believe the teacher actually approved it..."
As a student of Zijing Middle School, Guan Shimeng was aware of the existence of the vocal music room, but she also knew that the school wouldn't normally lend out such a place for her to live broadcast.
So Xu Fan bringing her here had caught her by surprise.
"Cough cough, as long as it's good, then hurry up and get ready, we're running out of time."
Xu Fan touched his nose guiltily. Using the vocal music room was purely an act of 'asking for forgiveness rather than permission.' He didn't mind, but that didn't mean Guan Shimeng felt the same way. Now that he had concealed this from her, he urged her to get started.
"Okay, okay, I'll start by doing some makeup."
Guan Shimeng seemed to have high hopes for today's first broadcast, as evidenced by the full and bulging backpack she brought with her.
Xu Fan glanced at Guan Shimeng, who was meticulously applying her makeup, and couldn't help shaking his head.
Applying makeup, isn't this going to be irresistibly stunning...
"Whew, okay, Xu Fan, does it look, does it look okay?"
After putting on some simple light makeup, Guan Shimeng's cheeks were flushed as she turned to Xu Fan for approval.
Her nervous demeanor indicated she desperately didn't want Xu Fan to disapprove.
Xu Fan saw her shy demeanor and smiled knowingly. Although her fresh makeup look couldn't compete with the glamorous and sexy makeup of many hosts on the Douyu Platform, her unique innocence would surely attract a good number of viewers.
"Phew, I was afraid you wouldn't like it. I'll go change clothes now."
Xu Fan's approval made Guan Shimeng breathe a sigh of relief. She immediately took out a set of clothes from her bag and stood up.
The vocal music room had a dedicated changing room which was very convenient. Xu Fan followed Guan Shimeng to the door of the changing room and jokingly asked, "Do you need me to give you a hand in there?"
"..."
"Don't you dare peek!"
With her face burning hot, Guan Shimeng hammered a punch into Xu Fan's chest and then slammed the changing room door shut with a bang.
Xu Fan just shrugged it off as if it was nothing and took the time to set up the computer for Guan Shimeng.
After nearly ten minutes, Guan Shimeng finally came out of the room in her new clothes.
She seemed not quite satisfied with this set of clothes, nervously fiddling with the hem of her skirt.
"Xu Fan, this outfit is okay, right?"
She was wearing the same dress she had worn for the talent show. Xu Fan understood well what she was nervous about.
It looked good on her but was relatively conservative. Guan Shimeng was worried that this kind of attire wouldn't be well-received.
"Silly girl, I told you to live stream to boldly sing in front of others, not to strip. That's something we can do in private if we want to, got it?"
"I certainly do not..."
Guan Shimeng mumbled with a blush, lowering her head, but Xu Fan's words made her see the light.
She could now see that Xu Fan had already set up everything needed for the broadcast. All she had to do was start, sit on the stool, and sing.
A warmth filled Guan Shimeng's heart, but seeing the profile Xu Fan had set up for her made her face turn red anew.
"Host is a female, 18 years old, married, can only sing, won't flirt, no BS, if you don't like it, get lost..."
These bold words were obviously Xu Fan's handiwork. Guan Shimeng wasn't so much concerned about the potential lack of viewers, but the word "married" truly caught her attention...
She cast a timid glance at Xu Fan and couldn't help but let her thoughts run wild.
"Okay, it's about time to start, I'll be waiting outside for you."
"Remember, as for the comments you'll see, believe the good ones, and just treat the bad ones as if someone is farting, don't take them too seriously, okay?"
Guan Shimeng had not been exposed to such things before, and Xu Fan was afraid that she might not be able to withstand the pressure later, so he took the time to give her a special reminder.
"Don't worry, Xu Fan, I'll do my best!"
All that needed to be said had been said; now it was up to Guan Shimeng herself. Xu Fan then left the music room directly.
"Boss, has it started?"
Upon leaving the music room, Shi Lei and his group, holding their phones, crowded around.
"Yeah, it should have started by now."
Now taking out his phone, Xu Fan searched for Guan Shimeng's room number on the Douyu Platform, and quickly found her room.
Shi Lei and a few others, looking for a bit of excitement, quickly all entered Guan Shimeng's room as well.
"Damn, Guan the School Beauty is worthy of her reputation, she looks even better on camera than in person..."
Seeing Guan Shimeng sitting in front of the camera, carefully made up, Shi Lei and his group couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.
Xu Fan silently nodded in agreement, indeed, her recognition as the school beauty of Zijing Middle School was by no means empty praise.
Keep in mind, the camera Shi Lei had purchased was just an ordinary one—if he had been smart enough to buy one with a built-in beautifying effect, Xu Fan reckoned she would kill it even more as a streamer.
But on second thought, Xu Fan felt it wasn't necessary, as authenticity was the most beautiful.
"Hey, stop looking at me, watch the live stream!"
Shi Lei and his group had just been marvelling, and now all eyes were on Xu Fan, who couldn't help but roll his eyes.
"Ahem, nothing. Boss, we're just genuinely envious..."
Shi Lei and his group said with sheepish grins, thinking to themselves, how could they not be envious? It was clear to anyone with eyes that the person in Guan Shimeng's eyes was standing right in front of them.
"Girl, don't be nervous!"
Guan Shimeng was sitting in front of the camera, visibly awkward. After all, this was her first live stream, and she was just sitting there, having no idea what to do.
Seeing this, Xu Fan couldn't help but send a message her way using the new account he had just created.
"..."
At this moment, the audience in the live room consisted only of Xu Fan and Shi Lei's group; Xu Fan's message was the very first comment.
The content of the message was rather mundane, but when Guan Shimeng saw Xu Fan's ID on Douyu, she instantly blushed bright red.
Little Meng's Only Husband, a shamelessly extreme username that only Xu Fan would dare use...
One could see Guan Shimeng's face turning red, and her lips moved slightly; though her words couldn't be heard, from the shape of her lips, it seemed she said "disgusting."
On the Douyu Platform, to speak frankly, with good looks, you're already halfway to success.
Though Guan Shimeng was shy and didn't know what to say during her first live stream, her delicate face could not be ignored. Just sitting there was enough to attract a crowd.
Soon, the number of people in the room began to grow.
Seeing the live viewer count jump to triple digits, Xu Fan's mood couldn't help but grow tense.
Whether this first broadcast could be successful or not, depended on this moment...
