Chapter 122 Feeling a Bit Qucasy
The door swung open.
First, the staff carrying the live–streaming equipment stepped out of the car, followed closely by the crew who brought out a screen, about half a person’s height, enabling the actors to view the barrage of comments from fans in real time.
Once everything was set up, Jonathan, dressed in casual dark green attire, finally opened the car door, gracefully stepping out with a refined smile.
Oliver, stationed outdoors, found himself unable to contain a disdainful eye–roll in response to Jonathan’s haughty attitude, quietly commenting. “So pretentious.”
Milly, positioned next to Oliver, promptly seized his arm and motioned towards the large display. signalling that the live streaming had commenced and reminding him to maintain silence.
Following her gaze, Oliver glanced at the large screen. As expected, the barrage of comments began to roll in frenetically.
Whoa, Jonathan is really going live this time, am I imagining things?
I’ve heard that Jonathan’s birthday live streaming is going to be a vlog of his entire day. I wonder what he gets up to.
Jonathan is looking quite dashing today, watching him is always a delight!”
‘Hm, I’ve got insider info! Heard that Jonathan suddenly decided to do a birthday live streaming to visit someone and show support. Rumour has it, it’s someone really important. You know what I mean, right?”
‘Don’t go around gossiping. Jonathan is single, and his friend circle is open for all to see! Wish your whole family death by rumour–mongering!”
I’m not gossiping! My distant relative’s acquaintance’s previous neighbour’s daughter happens to be an assistant working alongside Jonathan verified it!
Haha, who would believe that!‘
‘Hold on, did anyone else catch someone sporting identical attire with Jonathan?”
“They’re both clad in green, and that individual appears to be…”
‘Oh my gosh, it’s Oliver Terrell!
In the vast live chat, with tens of thousands of viewers, the large screen went blank for several seconds in this moment.
Not a single word was spoken, as if everyone was collectively digesting something unfathomable.
After a long while, finally, someone tremblingly typed out a line: ‘Is the person who just shared insider information still here? Care to join us for a discussion?‘
Chapter 122 Feeling a Bit Queasy
As Jonathan stepped out of the car, preparing to offer a friendly smile and greeting, he happened to glance at the large screen.
Upon reading the contents, he nearly choked on his breath, a fierce glare directed towards Oliver, who was dressed in the same brand, the same colour, and even the same size as himself. Grinding his teeth, he seethed with anger.
This guy was definitely doing it on purpose!
What are the odds of such a coincidence happening?
Oliver met his glare head–on, hands casually tucked in his pockets, exuding an air of boldness as he locked eyes with Jonathan. His gaze was filled with provocation.
He had gone to great lengths, pulling strings through several connections, just to find out what Jonathan would be wearing today. Then, he had arranged for a matching outfit to be delivered overnight, all with the sole purpose of outshining Jonathan with his looks!
Just as the two were about to come to blows, the host arrived, fashionably late, conveniently interrupting the palpable tension between them.
“Apologies for keeping everyone waiting. I’m Ace, the host of today’s birthday live streaming for Jonathan. I’m honoured to be able to explore a day in Jonathan’s life with all of you.”
Then, passing the microphone to Jonathan, the host smiled and said, “Jonathan, why don’t you greet the audience in the live stream?”
Jonathan, relying on his professional actor skills, suppressed the urge to throttle Oliver at that moment and instead flashed a sunny and handsome smile. “Hello, fans! I’m Jonathan. It’s great to have everyone here for my birthday live stream. I hope this broadcast brings you all some joy.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a distinct sound of retching echoed through the air, “Ugh…”
Instinctively, the cameraman turned towards Oliver, who was seated elegantly on a nearby stool. He gracefully wiped the corners of his mouth and chuckled lightly. “Apologies, I had beef steak for breakfast, feeling a bit queasy. Please, carry on.”
Jonathan was furious.
This guy is surely doing it intentionally.
Jonathan’s fans in live chat started to voice their defence for him.
‘Oliver is obviously being deliberate about this, his behaviour is extremely rude!‘
‘Absolutely, who eats a hefty breakfast like steak so early in the day? It’s definitely intentional!
‘Let’s protest against Oliver! Let’s protest against Oliver!”
‘Oliver’s behaviour is outrageously disrespectful, so frustrating. Why does he consistently interrupt our gatherings whenever Jonathan/is present? Normally, we overlook it, but why is this troublemaker still causing disturbance on such a special occasion as Jonathan’s birthday?”
‘Precisely, it’s incredibly frustrating.
Chapter 122 Feeling a Bit Queasy
At this moment, just as the news spread, fans of Oliver hurriedly flocked to Jonathan’s live streaming. Upon witnessing this scene, they immediately began to defend their idol.
“Could you all show some decency in your words? Since when does the law prohibit eating steak in the morning?”
‘Exactly, stop being so sensitive and jumping to conclusions. It’s ridiculous.
Jonathan’s fans are the least cultured in the entire entertainment industry, without exception!‘
The fans on the live chat had already begun to quarrel, and tensions were escalating.
Luckily, the host, Ace, was adept at diffusing such conflicts and promptly grinned to alleviate the strain, “Haha, what a coincidence! I also had steak this morning. I must admit, the steaks from this crew are quite substantial. My stomach is certainly feeling it now.
“Okay, let’s refocus on the main agenda, I think everyone just observed not only our main star, Jonathan, but also several other actors on location, as today we’re touring the set of the movie ‘Silent Sea.
“Next up, let’s have a few main actors introduce themselves.”
Oliver confidently took the microphone, his demeanour poised. “I’m Oliver.”
Then, the microphone was handed to Milly standing beside him.
Ace couldn’t help but twitch the corner of his mouth as he looked at Oliver. He tactfully asked, “Would you like to say a few words?
After all, half of the fans in this live streaming are his fans too.
Oliver’s expression turned resolutely righteous. “Those who understand me need no explanation, and those who don’t, no amount of explanation will suffice.”
Ace couldn’t say anything after listening to his answer.
How did he come up with such a cheesy statement?
Milly, who was standing nearby, suddenly found herself handed a microphone. She paused for a moment. not out of nervousness–after all, being interviewed and participating in live streamings were routine for her, even in her past life–but simply because she hadn’t expected to be handed the mic so quickly.
Observing Milly’s silence, Oliver, seated beside her, presumed she was feeling anxious. He leaned in, speaking sofily to reassure her, “Ms. Milly, just say whatever comes to mind. Don’t be afraid. This kind of low–level birthday live stream isn’t worth taking seriously.”
His voice echoed through the microphone, filling the studio with sound.
Milly realised it was already too late to silence the microphone.
