Chapter 48: Rivalry Among CEOs

Chapter 48: Jealousy Between Two CEOs

F sent a bullet comment at the right time.

"F: I'm here"

At this point, Du Yang still thought Ji Zichu was messing with him, so he asked, "Brother F, are you and Ji Zichu the same person?"

F replied quickly, sounding quite dismissive.

"F: Of course not. I only have this one account. No one else can impersonate me even if they wanted to."

Ji Zichu wasn't happy about that.

"Ji Zichu: Who wants to impersonate you! I am who I am, a firework unlike any other, Ji Zichu! President Ji!"

On camera, Du Yang's eyes went wide, staring at his phone. He thought about biting his thumb but then put it down. Then he frowned at the screen without speaking, as if digesting the fact.

On the other side, in the study.

Fu Yan sat at his desk, his gaze soft as he looked at the computer screen, a hint of a smile in his eyes.

His baby was totally confused now, shocked by the new discovery.

What an easy-to-dupe little one. How could he think that Ji Zichu, a guy who falls for everyone he meets, was F!

After a moment, Du Yang picked up his water glass, took two sips to calm himself, and finally spoke, "So Brother F and Ji Zichu are two different people."

"F: Of course"

"Ji Zichu: Of course"

Du Yang had messed up, and the fans were even more amused. By now, the stream had about five or six hundred people.

"Our streamer is adorably clueless, thinking two big spenders are the same person. That's just crazy."

"Adorably clueless is still cute. I want to take him home."

"Don't call our baby crazy! Maybe he's met the second biggest spender before."

"I'm new here. Can I ask if our baby has always been this adorably clueless?"

"Don't overthink it. There were never any big spenders before, so he never had the chance to act cute."

Ji Zichu finally understood why Du Yang had been so proactive with him—it was all because he'd mistaken him for F.

He felt a little wronged and let down. He'd been waiting anxiously for two days, thinking it was a mutual crush, but in the end, it was just his one-man show?

As President Ji, who had seen plenty of people, a small issue like this couldn't stump him.

The more challenging it was, the more exciting, and the sweeter the catch would be.

"Ji Zichu: So, Baby Yang, you thought I was that damn F? Baby, Big Bro's heartbroken."

Du Yang: "Sorry, I mistook you. I'll refund the money you spent on gifts through the back end. I can't do anything about the platform's cut."

If only he'd asked Ji Zichu clearly that day whether he was F, there wouldn't have been this misunderstanding.

Before Ji Zichu could send another bullet comment, F's comment appeared.

"F: Sent a hundred Jiahuanian, and now you want it back in a blink... hmm, tough to judge."

After F's comment appeared, the livestream was immediately filled with Jiahuanian effects, and they didn't stop.

F sent Jiahuanian × 1

F sent Jiahuanian × 1

...

F sent a hundred Jiahuanian one after another.

Wasn't this an obvious slap in the face to Ji Zichu?

He never meant to take the gifts back, okay! What does this mean, you green tea man!

"Ji Zichu: When did I ever say I wanted the gifts back!"

"Ji Zichu: I'm President Ji, dude, I keep my word. Would I care about a few Jiahuanian?"

"Ji Zichu: Baby, the gifts Big Bro gave you are yours. Big Bro has money!"

Then, Ji Zichu sent another hundred Jiahuanian to Du Yang in the livestream.

"A showdown between two CEOs! Tough and badass!"

"Mom! Come watch the fireworks! So much money going up in smoke!"

"Let's just say, it's all for Baby Yang. Can't we all just get along? You three live well together, that's what matters."

"Fight! Fight! I love watching two men fighting over one girl!"

"The person above just wants to see drama. Now it's trendy to have a love triangle. The three of you are feeding us dog food in the livestream, don't give a damn about us."

"Based on the stability of a triangle, three people are the most stable setup."

Ji Zichu was already mad, and the comments only made him hotter under the collar. He had no such fetish!

Even if he did win Du Yang over, Du Yang would belong to him and him alone.

But he hadn't won him over yet, so he couldn't let them talk about Du Yang like that.

"Ji Zichu: Stop talking nonsense. I'm loyal as can be."

F's bullet comment followed closely.

"F: Loyal to everyone you meet? People who are truly devoted never say they are."

"Ji Zichu: You're lying through your teeth and spewing nonsense!"

"F: Only someone hit with the truth who won't admit it would throw a fit and cuss like that."

At his computer, Ji Zichu pounded the table in anger, making a loud bang.

This green tea guy, so shameless!

The comment section went wild.

"Big F is definitely the main squeeze. The tone is like he's educating a concubine."

"The big shot hasn't been around long, but he's definitely the main man—I'm backing him all the way!"

"I mean, having one main and one side isn't impossible; we can just hide under the bed."

"Kids make choices; Baby Yang just takes them all in."

"As the barrage veered further off the rails, Du Yang quickly changed the subject."

"Brother F, Ji Zichu, could you two stop racing to send gifts? It's messing up my stream. Let's pause, okay?"

"Ji Zichu, thank you for the gifts, but please don't send any more."

"Ji Zichu: So you like that fake-nice F? Baby, you chose him?"

"Du Yang helplessly rubbed his forehead; he needed to clarify things without letting Brother F get the wrong idea, and without letting Fu Yan get the wrong idea either."

"In his past life, F had never had any designs on him; he just watched over his stream. He didn't want to ruin F's reputation."

"He especially didn't want Fu Yan to come to his stream one day and see the barrage full of dirty jokes about him and F. Fu Yan would definitely be upset and think he was being too chummy with his top supporter."

"Du Yang: \"No, Brother F isn't the kind of person you think. Brother F and I have no other relationship; he's just the best and most loyal supporter on my stream.\""

"This time, F's barrage popped up quickly."

"F: Yeah, I only look after Baby. It's not the kind of relationship you think. Don't make inappropriate jokes from now on."

"F: And those so-called big bosses, don't get any wrong ideas. Sending a few gifts doesn't mean you get to be all cozy with Baby."

"In the study, sandalwood smoke curled, filling the air with fragrance."

"Fu Yan stared at the computer screen, a faint smile curling at the corner of his lips."

"As if he couldn't tell Ji Zichu had a thing for Du Yang?"

"F couldn't flirt with Du Yang, but Fu Yan could."

"Fu Yan could openly like Du Yang."

"Sure enough, Ji Zichu was called out by that remark and proudly announced in Du Yang's stream."

"Ji Zichu: Don't project your own dirty mind onto a gentleman!"

"Ji Zichu: My feelings for Baby are pure care and affection! Not the nasty thoughts that fill your two-faced head."
