Chapter 790: Small Matter! (2)

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“What game are you guys going to play? Still sticking to the old routine, playing LOL?” Zhou Chao, after laughing, also got into the topic. After all, he couldn’t keep making fun of Lao Piao.

Si Cong boasted a bit, “Let’s play LOL. It’s been a while since I played. As the former professional player with the only perfect record in the entire league, I’ll show off tonight!”

“Come on, you, the former professional player who only played one game. Your skills aren’t better than mine!” Zhou Chao mercilessly exposed Si Cong’s pretense.

When playing games with friends, besides the enjoyment of the game itself, there’s also the interaction with friends. The banter and dissing back and forth make the gaming experience enjoyable.

Seeing Zhou Chao and Si Cong engrossed in conversation, Lao Piao couldn’t help but interrupt, “Young Master Zhou, Si Cong, do you need a couple of sweet-voiced companions to play with, who can also act cute?”

Si Cong, upon hearing this, became interested and quickly agreed, “Young Master Zhou, I think we should give it a try. After all, having girls around can make the atmosphere much more pleasant.”

Zhou Chao knew exactly what these two were up to. It was all about playing the game well and receiving compliments from the female companions to satisfy their own pleasure.

But, it wasn’t a bad idea, he thought.

“Alright, Lao Piao, you’re good at this. I’ll leave it to you to find companions!”

“No problem, Young Master Zhou. I’ll go find two sweet-voiced companions on the YY channel right away.”



“Hey, Zhou Chao, why don’t we go together and experience the joy of ‘choosing concubines’!” Si Cong chimed in.

Zhou Chao was also curious about companion gaming and wanted to see how it was done. If there was a need in the future, he wouldn’t hesitate to find companions himself to avoid any embarrassing situations.

“Okay, Lao Piao, book our tickets!”

“Sure thing!”

Lao Piao was quick. In less than ten seconds, Zhou Chao and Si Cong received the tickets from him and clicked to enter the channel where Lao Piao was.

They had expected a warm welcome upon entering, but to their surprise, they were completely ignored and became mere spectators.

All they heard was the channel’s customer service warmly welcoming a big spender, completely ignoring Zhou Chao’s group.

Lao Piao couldn’t stand this. Although he didn’t visit this channel often, he was still a guest. For the customer service to ignore them in favor of the big spender was a bit too much.

Moreover, it was he who had suggested finding companions to play with. If they were neglected because of this, he might lose his position.

“Hey, hello, is there anyone in customer service?” Lao Piao typed on the public screen.

Unfortunately, they were still ignored. Not a single person paid attention to them. The moderators and customer service were all focused on the big spender.



Normally, with Lao Piao’s status, handling such a matter should have been a piece of cake. But why did he drop the ball at such a critical moment? He even hoped to salvage a bit of face in front of Zhou Chao, but Lao Piao turned out to be completely useless, pure deadweight!

“Si Cong, I don’t know what else to do. The other party’s background and strength are much stronger than mine. I’ve heard rumors before about this channel being biased towards big spenders, but I thought it was just gossip. I didn’t expect it to be true,” Lao Piao said, feeling somewhat defeated.

Hearing this, Zhou Chao also became curious. What kind of background did this companion channel have that even Lao Piao had to bow down to?



“Tell me about it. What’s the deal with the other party’s background?” Zhou Chao asked, making Lao Piao feel extremely uneasy.

“Zhou Chao, I’m not very clear about the specifics. I’ve only heard bits and pieces. There was a big streamer who pretended to be a newbie and went to the companion channel to flirt with the girls. It caused quite a stir. The big streamer and the channel’s customer service got into a heated argument. Eventually, even the boss of the YY channel had to intervene. The next day, there was no mention of the incident online. It’s said that the backers behind YY intervened, so I thought it was just a rumor,” Lao Piao explained.

“Why beat around the bush? Just tell us who the boss behind it is. You’re not usually this hesitant!” Si Cong said impatiently.

“Tencent!”

Upon hearing this, Si Cong fell silent. He knew that if Zhou Chao got involved in this matter, he would definitely take action. So, he quietly waited.

Sure enough, not a few seconds later, the sound of a phone ringing came from the channel. Si Cong and Lao Piao both quickly switched to push-to-talk mode, while Zhou Chao didn’t realize that his mic was still open.

Soon, the call was answered, and a voice that both Si Cong and Lao Piao were familiar with came from the other end.

“Zhou Chao, what made you think of calling me? You’re quite the rare visitor!”

“Little Ma, when there’s trouble, it’s hard to resist giving big bro you a little complaint!”

Upon hearing this, Little Ma stood up from the sofa, his expression becoming serious. If Zhou Chao, this big shot, personally called to complain, it meant that someone from his group had offended this big shot.

“Young Master Zhou, I’m not sure what happened. Could you please briefly explain?”

Without hesitation, Zhou Chao recounted the situation to Little Ma.

After hearing the story, Little Ma mentally crossed out that companion channel. He had originally thought it was a big issue, but who would have expected such a bizarre turn of events.



“Young Master Zhou, I understand. I’ll give you a response within an hour.”

“Ah, Little Ma, I’m just venting a bit. How to handle it is your internal matter. I won’t get involved!”

At this remark, a wry smile tugged at the corners of Little Ma’s mouth. Did you forget your identity as a private shareholder?

“Hahaha, Young Master Zhou, you’re as amusing as ever!”

After a brief chat, Zhou Chao hung up the phone.

Tonight was destined to be a sleepless night. Some people ended up working overtime just because of a phone call.
