Wilderness Livestream: Other People Struggle to Survive While I Became Famous by Looking After a Cat

Chapter 103: Coaxing a Child

Translator: Zayn_

On the fifth day, the viewership ratings for the National Day TV series would be announced.

Early in the morning, many people were waiting for this year’s National Day TV Series Rankings to see if there would be any dark horses.

At nine o’clock in the morning, the rankings were released on time.

Us, 4.3%.

Time, 3.8%.

Elegy of the Rose, 1.2%.

The Immortal Demon, 0.08%.

Such a ranking was not surprising at all.

“As expected, ’Us’ is ranked first. The viewership ratings have already broken 4%! The number of online views will definitely be even higher!”

“Shen Xiyan has been too fierce these past few years. If she shoots two more movies, she will be a top celebrity, right? Maybe she can enter the top ten of the influential rankings this year!”

“‘Time’ isn’t bad either. 1 didn’t expect Director Wang to also film a tribute drama. Amazing!”

“The other TV series’ viewership ratings have broken 1% already. ‘The Immortal Demon’ is too lame. How rubbish is this…”

“I saw the Elegy of the Rose…The plot is messy, the actors’ expressions are stiff, and The Immortal Demon is probably even worse than this!”

“Song Qingyou, stop acting. Isn’t it good to be a variety show star?”

Just by looking at the data, The Immortal Demon was an out-and-out lousy series.

Most people who paid attention to data would not click on it.

When the viewership ratings were released, Time’s production team was being interviewed.

“The viewership ratings for the National Day TV series were released just now. Time is ranked second. Director Wang, do you have anything to say?”

“It’s within my expectations to be ranked second because ‘Us’ is a very outstanding TV series. I’ve been following this series for the past two days, so it’s only within my expectations that it will lose to this series.”

“What do you think about the last place?” the reporter asked. “The Immortal Demon?”

Director Wang smiled meaningfully.

“I don’t have any opinions. I haven’t watched this drama yet, so I won’t express any opinions. However, I want to say that not just anyone can be a director. Xiao Xu is still young, so it’s time for him to study hard in school!”

He didn’t even address Xu Mingrui as director. Anyone could hear the disdain in his voice.

After the reporter asked the director, he immediately looked at Qiu Yu.

“You’ve interacted with Song Qingyou a lot on Weibo, and the two of you work in the same company, so you must be very familiar with her. What do you think of The Immortal Demon?”

“I can’t say that I’m familiar with her.” Qiu Yu smiled.

“But Zhou Jin told me that Song Qingyou has the final say in the production of ‘The Immortal Demon*. 1 don’t think that’s a good idea. No matter what, the director is the one who makes the movie. We should listen to the director more.”

“Actors should focus on acting. Don’t do too many unnecessary things. It’s not good to be too confident in yourself.”

Compared to Director Wang and Qiu Yu’s beating around the bush, Zhou Jin’s words in the interview were direct and harsh.

“Fortunately, I accepted the role in ‘Time’ and jumped out of the fire pit in time. Otherwise, 1 would have been at the bottom with some people!”

The crew of “Time” didn’t put Xu Mingrui and Song Qingyou in their eyes. In fact, they were indirectly announcing the death penalty for “The Immortal Demon”.

This was because after the drama finished airing, the probability of Xu Mingrui, the director, being able to get an investment was pitifully small. He might even change careers.

Song Qingyou was even simpler. She had a bet with Qiu Yu, so who would worry about offending someone who was about to retire?

Song Qingyou silently watched Qiu Yu’s interview.

There was no reaction.

The more Jiang Zhihan listened, the angrier he got.

Over the past few months, Song Qingyou’s hard work had been witnessed by him. Even if he couldn’t empathize with her, it was impossible for him to not feel emotional at all.

Moreover, he had also finished reading the script of ‘The Immortal Demon’.

From an audience’s point of view, this drama was excellent.

So, what right did these people have to laugh at Song Qingyou?

At this thought, Jiang Zhihan couldn’t help but put his hand on the back of Song Qingyou’s hand to comfort her.

“Meow

His cries were much gentler than usual.

Unfortunately, Song Qingyou was oblivious to his attempts.

“Zhizhi, are you hungry?”

Since her cat was too worry-free, every time it took the initiative to meow, it was either hungry or the toilet door was not open, so she subconsciously asked.

Unexpectedly, the kitten did not react this time. It turned around and jumped onto the table. It lowered its head and carefully picked up a mint candy before jumping back.

Song Qingyou subconsciously reached out.

The kitten opened its mouth and the candy fell into her hand.

Song Qingyou stared blankly at the candy in her hand. “For me?”

Jiang Zhihan sat down in front of her and didn’t respond.

Song Qingyou smiled. “Is Zhizhi treating me like a child?”

Although she said that, she did not hesitate to open the wrapping paper and put the candy into her mouth.

She clearly did not mind others treating her like a child.

‘Tsk, this look is really unbearable!’ Jiang Zhihan turned his head and looked at the ground.

Song Qingyou could see a look of disdain on his furry face.

She snorted and teased, “Zhizhi is so good at coaxing people. There will definitely be many female cats who’ll like him in the future.”

After saying that, she was afraid that Zhizhi wouldn’t understand and even showed him a video on her phone.

“Here, this kind of cat. How about I help Zhizhi raise a few more cats?”

Jiang Zhihan was so annoyed by the dozen cats’ meowing in the video that he wanted to cover his ears.

Moreover-

He looked up at Song Qingyou.

‘You aren’t raising them forme at all. You just want to raise them for yourself, right?!’

‘Look carefully This video is in your favorites!’

‘Wait a minute!’

Song Qingyou couldn’t possibly want to be like this video blogger and raise a dozen cats at once, right?

What was the difference between this and hell?

Jiang Zhihan was shocked and immediately abandoned his rationality. He bared his teeth and tried to express his disgust for these cats.

Because he overreacted, Song Qingyou immediately turned off the video.

She put her phone in her pocket.

“Fine, 1 won’t. I have Zhizhi!”

“Zhizhi is so smart; the other cats can’t compare!”

That was what she said.

In fact, Song Qingyou was thinking: ‘Cellphones are too expensive! Some time ago, I had to pay a lot of publishing fees for my thesis submission. Now, 1 don’t have the money to buy a new phone!’

Jiang Zhihan, who didn’t know what she was thinking, enjoyed her flattery.

Even when Song Qingyou reached out to scratch his chin, he accepted it without any qualms.

Song Qingyou took the opportunity to take a photo.

Many people were waiting for her to post on Weibo to respond to Qiu Yu.

In the end, she appeared on Weibo. When they opened the post, it was a freaking cat again!

Did Song Qingyou go crazy from raising a cat?

Or did she want to show that she didn’t care about the viewership ratings?

Even some fans felt that Song Qingyou was too much of a Buddha. She didn’t live up to expectations at all!

Only Jiang Xuyan shed tears of envy and commented on Zhizhi’s photo.

If he knew who gave him a husky, he would definitely order his dog to demolish that person’s house!
