Her Food Livestream Broke the Galaxy-Chapter 44: Jiang Qiuqiu’s Future Direction (Part 1)

In the Federation Era, people were spread so far apart that some streamers lived dozens of planets away from the company. The cost of a single trip on a warp ship could be enough to bankrupt someone on the spot. That’s why, years ago, the Federation Live Broadcast Company developed a holographic contract channel.

The channel was used exclusively for signing company contracts. A holographic recording would begin the moment both parties entered, serving as evidence of the signing. All contracts signed through this channel were protected by Federation law.

After entering the channel, Jiang Qiuqiu walked straight toward Meimei.

"Editor."

Meimei, who was still looking down at the contract, raised her head. For a moment, she was stunned.

Jiang Qiuqiu waved her hand. "Editor?"

"...Have a seat." When the application materials had been submitted, Meimei hadn’t looked closely at the photo Jiang Qiuqiu sent in. All she remembered was a quick glance: long bangs, a somewhat gaunt figure, and an appearance that wasn’t exactly stunning. At the time, she had guessed this might be the reason Jiang Qiuqiu didn’t show her face.

But!

’Who is this?’

’Who is this person walking toward me?!’

Jiang Qiuqiu had only just come of age. She wasn’t very tall, a result of childhood malnutrition. After arriving in the Federation, although she hadn’t been able to attend school, she received Federation aid and managed to get by. Her nutritional intake was just barely adequate, leaving her with a slender build.

A difficult life, combined with working in *that* kind of place, had led the body’s original owner to keep her long hair rough and unkempt for protection. She wore baggy clothes, always kept her head down, and lacked any confidence in photos. Even with her considerable beauty, it was all completely obscured.

But now, Jiang Qiuqiu had her hair pulled back, revealing a smooth forehead. The simple style, free of any fancy embellishments, only served to accentuate her features: almond eyes, rosy cheeks, a radiant complexion, and full lips. She was so adorable she could captivate any man or woman in the Federation.

As Jiang Qiuqiu approached, she couldn’t help but feel the editor’s gaze was a little ravenous.

"Has the rank on this contract been changed?" She noticed that the Federation Live Broadcast Company had skipped the one-year internship period and assigned her a rank directly.

Meimei, her thoughts still a bit scattered, nodded. "Little President Qian feels your popularity and talent can’t be compared to an ordinary streamer’s. Though you haven’t been broadcasting for long, your skills are plain to see, so he waived the one-year internship period."

He had assigned her D-level directly. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

"At next year’s review, you can be promoted directly from this rank."

"I’m glad the new Little President Qian has a good eye for talent." Jiang Qiuqiu left her genetic information on the contract. After the holographic channel’s verification, the contract emitted a blue glow, signifying that the signing process was complete.

Meimei stood up first. "Qiuqiu, now that the holographic verification is complete, let’s switch channels and talk about your stream."

"Okay."

This was the backend system developed by the Federal Company itself. All company editors had their own small offices here, and Meimei was no exception.

The first thing she said after bringing Jiang Qiuqiu to her small office was, "If Little President Qian saw you now, he would definitely think he ranked you too low."

"What do you mean by that?" Jiang Qiuqiu smiled and pointed to herself. "Are you trying to say I’m pretty?"

"Exactly."

In any era, unique beauty is always a considerable advantage.

"Qiuqiu, have you ever considered doing face-cam streams?"

Jiang Qiuqiu understood the implication behind Meimei’s question, but—

"I don’t want to show my face."

"I might have other plans in the future. Streaming is my job, and I don’t want it to interfere when I’m pursuing those other plans." She was committed to honoring the original owner’s last wishes, as well as pursuing her own curiosities—it was highly likely she would go to school in the future.

She wanted to enjoy her campus life without being recognized. The idea of living under a spotlight, subject to all kinds of praise and criticism, was completely unappealing to her.

Her tone was resolute, her attitude firm. In their short time working together, Meimei had come to understand Jiang Qiuqiu’s personality and knew this was likely non-negotiable. Slightly disappointed, she said, "Alright. We’ll prioritize your wishes."

"Don’t be so disappointed. Do you really think I can’t become a top-tier streamer without showing my face, Meimei?"

"Of course not!" Meimei shook her head. "You have more than enough skill."
