When Liu Man finished the entire passage of "The book of songs · Daya · Hanlu", she finally looked up and checked the comments on her phone. There were many comments, and there were also many gifts that the viewers had sent.

At this moment, the fans who sent a lot of Fairytale Carriages were spamming and arguing about who would be the one to buy the poem she wrote today. There was only one piece of work, but there were way too many who wanted it.

Liu Man hadn't thought of a way to solve this issue before a long comment appeared at the very top of the comment section.

"Hello, live-streamer. I'm a roommate of Otaku Boy. We're all sophomore year students from the Capital University. Otaku Boy has been watching your live-stream since the first day you started, and he never missed any one of your live-streams. Now, he's even a manager of your live-stream, he has always been your most loyal fan."

"He really liked your calligraphy work, but he's just a student from a normal family. He can't gift you with so many Fairytale Carriages like the other people from rich families, but he did spam you presents in other live-streams, and he took them out of his own living expenses. For that sake, and also for the sake of how he supported you by even watching your streams right before exams, can you please give him one of your calligraphy works tonight?" — Hello, Princess Man.

As this comment came out, the entire comment section exploded again.

"Wow, even the top students of Capital University watch this live-stream too. I suddenly feel like this live-stream is really high-leveled..."

TL's Note: There are a lot of references of real-life things in here. For example, according to Sydney, when the author says "capital city," she means Beijing. When she says "Capital University," she means Peking University – one of the most prestigious schools in China. She won't directly name it, but apparently Chinese readers would understand without her having to directly name something from real life.

"Although this person's comment does make some sense, it's quite unfair. He's not the only loyal fan of Princess Man's, and he isn't the one who sends out the most gifts. Why should the live-streamer send him her work, just because his roommate asked for it?"

"Yeah. First come, first serve. I still think the calligraphy work should go to the person who sends out the most gifts tonight."

"You do know that he's the manager of the live-stream? Be careful, he might kick you guys out."

...

Everyone started to discuss, but they were all some new fans. Liu Man's four managers, including Otaku Boy, didn't say anything. None of Liu Man's old fans said anything either.

Liu Man still didn't talk after a long while. She was very clear, if she couldn't solve this today, she might lose a big part of her fans.

After pondering for a moment, Liu Man said, "I'm on winter break today, and I can live-stream 'till twelve o' clock. Those who gifted me with Fairytale Carriages, you can private message me your addresses tonight. I'll write a few more copies of this poem tomorrow morning, and send them to you. Now, I'll continue to write. From now on, everyone, please stop sending me any gifts, because this piece of work is directed at Otaku Boy. Thank you so much for all your support since the beginning."

Liu Man, unlike other live-streamers, didn't use a software to modify her voice. Her voice was natural and orthodox. It also sounded soft. It seemed to calm everyone's mind, for everyone suddenly became quiet and stopped arguing.

Everyone paid their whole attention as they watched her spread out a new piece of rice-paper, and continued to rub an ink-stick against the ink-stone to create ink. The sharp chin of the girl appeared at some points of the video. She probably pinned all her hair to the back of her head because nobody could see any of her hair for the rest of the video.
