Wang Henli suddenly stepped in front of the camera and coldly made his accusation. "I suspect this was fixed."
"My votes were stolen!" Fearing Jiang Qiuqiuâs fans might miss it, he even sent a giant bullet comment that filled the entire screen.
He was so certain that his votes had definitely been stolen.
Because as the voting came to a close, Jiang Qiuqiu had 800 million votes, while he only had 170 million.
Even if he were going to lose, he couldnât believe he would lose so badly. It was a complete and utter defeat.
His mind was actually working quite fast. âMy votes were definitely stolen.â He had to act decisively and blow the situation wide open right here in the livestreamâ
âFirst, this way, no one will talk about the massive gap in votes between me and Jiang Qiuqiu. Theyâll all be focused on the vote-stealing incident instead.â
âWhy would her side even steal votes, though? Maybe that young master of hers was too desperate to create a champion. He was probably afraid Jiang Qiuqiu couldnât win on her own, so he rigged the vote count.â
âAfter all, the difference in our skill isnât even that big.â
âBut who would have thought... Maybe because I had fewer votes to begin with, the theft was especially obvious, and thatâs how I caught them.â
âI have to make a huge scene. Todayâs PK wonât count! Iâll get another chance! If I can get my hands on Jiang Qiuqiuâs recipes and compete again, Iâll be even stronger!â
With his train of thought all sorted out, Wang Henli started speaking even faster.
"Does power really mean everything on this platform?"
"Is this how I get bullied just for not having a backer?" Having worked nonstop for days, Wang Henliâs eyes were already bloodshot. Now, as he whimpered and squeezed out a few tears, he created the perfect illusion of a tough guy brought to tears. "I donât know if youâve done this before, but today! Jiang Jiujiu, your vote-stealing is just too brazen! Did the person backing you ever stop to think how it feels to bully an ordinary food streamer like me?"
"Food streaming is supposed to be a pure space, but you came in here wielding the power of capital and made this entire market filthy!"
As expected of someone who had clawed his way up, Wang Henliâs passionate, dramatic performance almost made it seem like there really was a conspiracy afoot.
Unfortunately for himâ
for that to work, votes would have had to actually be stolen. And while the actor was completely in character, his audience wasnât playing along.
And the first to push back werenât Jiang Qiuqiuâs fans, who might have stormed over after seeing the false accusations. It was Wang Henliâs own fans, the ones who had been in his livestream from the start.
[???]
[Rigged votes? Stolen votes? No way.]
[I agree, no way... With her skill level, would she even need to steal votes?]
[I kinda feel like *our* stream is the one with the fake votes.]
[To be honest, todayâs dish was fine on its own, but compared to the other stream, it was leagues behind. After the results came out, I was wondering how he even managed to get 170 million votes...]
[+1 to the above.]
[I doubt there was any vote stealing. Everyone still here, who did you vote for? Type the name in chat and letâs see.]
The person who wrote this was a major VIP user, their comment box glowing with multiple colors, so it naturally stood out. In the next momentâ
[Jiang Jiujiu], [Jiang Jiujiu], [Jiang Jiujiu], [Wang Henli]... In an instant, bullet comments flooded the screen. But for every five or six times Jiang Qiuqiuâs name floated by, youâd only see Wang Henliâs name once.
How could Wang Henli possibly miss this? He was so mad he felt like heâd burst a blood vessel, and he gasped for breath.
"It seems the other sideâs influence is so great theyâve even bribed the top ten ranked users in my own livestream!"
"The space for streamers like me, with no powerful backing, to even survive is being squeezed smaller every single momentâ"
The Top-Ten-Ranked User: ???
âI just wanted to be fair, and this guy attacks me?â
âIf I donât actually do something to deserve being called âbribed,â then wouldnât I have been falsely accused for nothing?â
[Shut up, you idiot. Sore loser****]
