Miss Lu Turned Her Back, Her Six Brothers Begged for Forgiveness - Chapter 51:
Chapter 51: Has That Blind Sixth Brother of Yours Regretted It?
Lu Ning heard his voice but didn’t bother responding. The Dungeon started, and she fought monsters with the team. Yet Lu Liu kept trailing her, incessantly asking, “What do you mean by this? Are you dissatisfied with our company’s offer? What exactly do you want?”
Lu Liu was getting anxious. If he couldn’t recruit the right person, what would they do for the finals at the end of the month?
Lu Ning frowned — did Sixth Brother even realize there were others in the team? Didn’t he care that he might be overheard?
Sure enough, a man’s voice came from the team chat, “Yo, isn’t this the captain of Lu Tian Team? If you’re trying to poach someone, at least be polite about it!”
“Exactly! With that attitude, it doesn’t even look like he’s poaching — more like he’s digging a grave.”
“Lemon Missy, why not consider joining Qiuqiu Team? Their pay and reputation are pretty good.”
The moment Lu Liu heard the name “Qiuqiu Team,” he exploded, “She’s not allowed to go!”
She couldn’t go to Qiuqiu Team!
Initially, he had been quite polite. But after realizing [Lemon Sweet] might be Lu Ning, he completely lost his composure.
“I say, Captain Lu, your attitude is way out of line. Miss Lemon can join whichever team she wants.”
“Yeah, are you in charge of the whole world or what?”
Lu Liu fumed, “What does it have to do with you guys?”
She might be his little sister. He could say whatever he wanted — no outsiders had the right to intervene.
Hearing this, Lu Ning said calmly, “Enough arguing. The boss is coming.”
“Okay, Miss Lemon, anything you say.”
“Give Miss Lemon some respect. We’re just regular players, but at least we speak facts. We’re not afraid of these rich brats.”
Lu Ning didn’t say more and led the team to fight the boss.
But Lu Liu, out of anger, didn’t follow the team. He tried to solo the boss and ended up getting killed.
Seeing him die, the teammates made a few sarcastic comments.
Lu Liu stared at his now black-and-white screen, furious. “Damn it!”
His assistant walked over, “Boss, what happened? The streamer refused to sign?”
Lu Liu massaged his temples, “It’s not about signing anymore.”
If this streamer really was Lu Ning…
He didn’t know what to do!
He thought of Lu Ning’s recent performances — skilled, powerful, with a deep understanding of the game — like she had been professionally trained.
But Lu Liu remembered: Lu Ning had never undergone formal training. Strange.
So, this streamer shouldn’t be Lu Ning.
If she really were Lu Ning, all those harsh things he said before would become a huge joke.
Lu Liu didn’t even dare face that possibility.
He told his secretary, “Find someone else.”
“You’re not recruiting this streamer anymore?”
“Just do as I say! I refuse to believe she’s the only talent out there.”
Lu Liu was burning with frustration.
Seeing this streamer’s capabilities only made him more bitter. If she really was Lu Ning, was she toying with him, laughing at his misery?
After the Dungeon, Lu Ning noticed that Sixth Brother had logged off. Probably lost face and quit.
She understood him — he cared a lot about saving face.
Wasn’t this the same as slapping him right across his precious face?
But Lu Ning didn’t dwell on it.
Finishing the Dungeon, she felt a bit tired and went to pour herself some water.
She saw Ji Chiqian lounging on the sofa. “When did you get back?”
Ji Chiqian, who had been resting with his eyes closed, slowly opened them at her voice. “Just now. Went to school today?”
He noticed the documents on the coffee table — they were for filling out her university preferences.
Lu Ning nodded, “Picked up the materials.”
“Little Lemon, your stream is so popular now. Tell me, is your Sixth Brother regretting losing such a talented little sister?”
Gu Zifeng came out of the bathroom wearing a loose bathrobe, his hair still wet.
Ji Chiqian’s face darkened, “Go back to your room and put on proper clothes!”
“Alright, alright, I was just too excited and forgot.” Gu Zifeng retreated to his room to change. Tsk, he thought, what a jealous vinegar jar! He was dressed so conservatively too!
Lu Ning went to the kitchen and sliced some fruit. It was obvious Ji Chiqian was a bit tired.
Ji Chiqian glanced at the fruit platter, “Have you decided which platform to sign with?”
“Not really. I looked at Douxia’s contract. They require streamers to be online for a set number of hours daily. Once school starts, I won’t have that much time. It’s too restrictive.”
Even without a contract, she could still earn from the platform. She just wouldn’t get promotional boosts.
Gu Zifeng came back dressed properly, munching on fruit. “Easy solution — just negotiate your terms with Douxia. They’ll agree.”
Lu Ning looked surprised, “Why? I heard Douxia doesn’t easily amend contracts for newcomers.”
Unless you were a Legendary Player.
Gu Zifeng coughed, “You can always try. With your skills, they’d be stupid not to bend the rules.”
Lu Ning felt Gu Zifeng was joking.
Maybe he could pull some strings, but she didn’t want to owe anyone favors.
She shook her head, “Forget it. I’ve made quite a bit from streaming these days. It’s enough for tuition and living expenses.”
Gu Zifeng said while eating fruit, “What about that blind Sixth Brother of yours? Don’t tell me he can’t recognize your voice!”
Ji Chiqian shot him a cold look, “Can’t you shut up even while eating?”
Lu Ning chuckled, “I ran into him at school today, but I didn’t admit anything. He wasn’t sure either.”
“He’s just feeling guilty. Little Lemon, I’m telling you — reveal your face during tonight’s stream. Scare the crap out of him!”
Lu Ning shook her head, “No need. I just want to stay away from them.”
She wouldn’t let them disrupt her life again.
Gu Zifeng wanted to say more but was silenced by Ji Chiqian’s glare.
After Lu Ning left, Gu Zifeng whispered, “Why not let me help Little Lemon vent some anger?”
“If we need to vent, she won’t have to lift a finger,” Ji Chiqian said coolly.
He already had a plan in mind.
—
Half an hour before the evening stream.
Lu Ning went online, and many were already waiting.
Qin Xiang was also lurking in the stream. Seeing the follower count reach 300,000, she was sour with jealousy.
Just because she was good at gaming?
Qin Xiang glanced at Lu Liu beside her. “Sixth Brother, what’s your plan now?”
Lu Liu’s face was cold as he stared at the stream. “Let’s see how it plays out first.”
Qin Xiang bit her lip.
Douxia had promoted Lu Ning’s stream to the homepage, giving her a huge influx of traffic.
Many fans flooded in.
[Miss Lemon, you’re so professional at explaining the game. Were you once a professional Team player?]
[I heard the captain of Lu Tian Team is dying to recruit you. Which Team will you choose?]
[Yeah, the Lu Tian Team captain is even ranked first on your fan list. He’s online too.]
Lu Ning naturally saw that the top-ranked fan was Sixth Brother.
She spoke calmly, “Lu Tian Team did approach me, but…”
Lu Liu’s heart hung in suspense.
