Chapter 84 People with Authority
In this world, there were many who admired beautiful women. These viewers of Stephanie were not exceptional. When they discovered that Skyview was intentionally causing trouble for their goddess, they were immediately outraged and began verbally attacking him.
[Who do you think you are? You have no right to make our goddess dance! You're so clueless!]
[Go away!]
[Thinking you're Nova? You're just a broke loser!]
The comments in the live stream chat grew denser rapidly, with 100% of them directed at cursing Skyview. His words had sparked the fury of Stephanie's supporters, who were fervently defending their revered goddess.
Unfazed by the insults, Skyview remained composed. He had mentally prepared for the backlash when he decided to stir up trouble.
Stephanie stayed silent. She knew this was a situation she couldn't handle on her own; intervening would only be counterproductive. The best course of action was to let her fans defend her by cursing and attacking on her behalf.
Stephanie did not just have a pretty face without wisdom. While she might have appeared that way because it was what most men preferred, she was a top student from Potter Bay University and was well-informed about everything. When faced with troublemakers like Skyview, she didn't feel the need to act; watching her fans stand up for her was sufficient.
Continuing to type, Skyview expressed: [I understand we live in a materialistic society, but in my view, Stephanie isn't just a streamer chasing after money.]
[She genuinely cares for her fans, which is why I hope to see her dance.]
[I'm not forcing her to dance. If Stephanie truly values wealth above all else, then I won't ask her to dance again.]
Skyview sent a series of messages, adopting a righteous tone. He was clever and refrained from cursing Stephanie. Instead, he commended her for not being materialistic. If Stephanie responded with emotional intelligence, it would demonstrate that she wasn't solely motivated by money.
While materialism was common in this capitalist world, openly labeling someone as a "gold digger" was always derogatory, whether in Golden Valley or beyond.
For a female streamer, being materialistic was expected, but being branded as such could severely damage her reputation. Society was inherently hypocritical. Express a desire for wealth and beauty, and you'd be deemed vulgar; frame it as a pursuit of career and love, and suddenly, it would sound noble despite being essentially the same thing.
Just like many singers, who prioritized money but portrayed it as a pursuit of their dreams, often embellishing it with a tragic backstory. It was a glaring hypocrisy, yet audiences were drawn to it. Despite knowing the truth, most people found solace in self-deception to cope with life's challenges.
Supporters always hoped their goddess wasn't materialistic and was relatable. They even idealized her, never considering that she was also an ordinary person.
Stephanie found herself in a dilemma, unsure how to respond to Skyview. Revealing the truth would be self-defeating, and lying was not an option. Just as she was about to speak, her phone buzzed with a WhatsApp message: [Don't say anything. The more you speak, the more mistakes you make! I'll handle it!]
The message was from "Nova Gaze," a prominent supporter and friend of Stephanie's in the live stream. He not only had a close relationship with Stephanie on WhatsApp but also held managerial authority in her livestream. They even held a real-life interaction.
Upon receiving the message, Stephanie felt a sense of relief.
She had great trust in "Nova Gaze." In reality, he was a successful businessman and a highly educated individual with exceptional personal qualities. He was fiercely protective of Stephanie, and dealing with such matters was a breeze for him.
Stephanie remained silent while her fans continued to berate Skyview. Despite his enthusiastic typing, Skyview suddenly found himself unable to send any more messages. Upon investigation, he discovered he had been muted, and the mute was set for 365 days.
[Moderator "Nova Gaze" had muted "Boring Surf" for 365 days.]
A message popped onto the screen.
Skyview was stunned, unable to utter a word.
On the internet, authority figures were omnipresent. They could mute any users who were causing trouble.
Witnessing Skyview's muting by "Nova Gaze", the fans in the livestream erupted in cheers. They not only adored their goddess but also held wealthy patrons like "Nova Gaze" in high regard.
