Is he really that close with the Meng heir? And even had dinner at their place?\u201d]<\/p>\r\n<p>[\u201cWow, such a big dining room, even bigger than mine. No wonder they\u2019re a wealthy family\u2026\u201d]<\/p>\r\n<p>[\u201cWait, did the Meng heir just say his name was Mark??? Could he be the top contributor Mark?\u201d]<\/p>\r\n<p>Meng Feixuan nodded without hesitation: \u201cThat\u2019s me, the top Mark.\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p>Comments:<\/p>\r\n<p>[\u201c!!!!! Damn, the top contributor is actually the Meng heir?!\u201d]<\/p>\r\n<p>[\u201cPeople online said the top contributor was Xiao Ran himself. I knew he had no career ambition!\u201d]<\/p>\r\n<p>[\u201cRich guy, do you still need friends?!\u201d]<\/p>\r\n<p>\u201cNo, the thing rich people have the most of is friends,\u201d Meng Feixuan politely declined, which left netizens speechless.<\/p>\r\n<p>Meng Feixuan casually interacted with the audience for a bit, not forgetting this was Xie Ran\u2019s livestream, and then handed the camera back to him: \u201cSir, your turn.\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p>Xie Ran looked at the camera, thought for a moment, and said: &#8220;Then\u2026 let\u2019s call it compensatory time off.\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p>Comments:<\/p>\r\n<p>[\u201c\u2026damn, I thought Xiao Ran was going to work overtime, but it\u2019s compensatory time off?!\u201d]<\/p>\r\n<p>[\u201cRan, why don\u2019t you learn something better than compensatory time off? It\u2019s soulless!\u201d]<\/p>\r\n<p>Xie Ran, as always, ignored the comments\u2019 complaints. Since Meng Feixuan had already started the livestream, he went with the flow and streamed naturally.<\/p>\r\n<p>Originally, if Meng Feixuan hadn\u2019t taken action, Xie Ran would have done it himself.<\/p>\r\n<p>No one could set rules for him.<\/p>\r\n<p>Once it was confirmed that Meng Siyun and the Meng family members appeared in Xie Ran\u2019s livestream, the livestream\u2019s popularity soared instantly and kept rising.<\/p>\r\n<p>The general public was already curious about wealthy family life, especially since the Meng family was one of the most famous clans in Haijing City and all of Huaxia.<\/p>\r\n<p>Such high-level celebrities prided themselves on their status and rarely appeared in public. Even occasional appearances were at grand occasions, covered by well-known media.<\/p>\r\n<p>Who would have thought that one day they\u2019d be seen in an internet celebrity\u2019s livestream, a casual entertainment platform, and even during a meal?<\/p>\r\n<p>When Xie Ran announced he would keep livestreaming, netizens exploded, inviting friends and attracting many curious onlookers.<\/p>\r\n<p>The Big Face Cat platform was also shocked, especially the staff member handling Xie Ran, who was completely dumbfounded. He had been worried about Xie Ran\u2019s career lately.<\/p>\r\n<p>Xie Ran clearly had great natural advantages and hot topics, yet lacked ambition. The staff had tried many times to boost Xie Ran\u2019s traffic, but he never seized the opportunities, always either attending online classes or studying materials. He was good at gaming but didn\u2019t talk much, interacted poorly, so over time his viewership remained stable, never reaching top streamer status.<\/p>\r\n<p>Unexpectedly, Xie Ran silently made huge news!<\/p>\r\n<p>Livestreaming from the Meng family! What kind of content, what level was this!<\/p>\r\n<p>Across the entire streaming world, which streamer had such resources and opportunities?!<\/p>\r\n<p>Without hesitation, the staff put Xie Ran\u2019s stream on the homepage\u2019s large banner, and Big Face Cat didn\u2019t block it. This kind of topic couldn\u2019t be stopped even by their own platform \u2014 who needed bikes?<\/p>\r\n<p>Xie Ran was not surprised by the rising viewers in the livestream and was unaffected. He had just finished eating and casually spent some time, answering a few comment questions.<\/p>\r\n<p>He acted calmly, no different from his usual streaming style, which only frustrated the curious audience who were anxious to see more.<\/p>\r\n<p>An experienced regular viewer spoke up: [\u201cI know this one, let me do it.\u201d]<\/p>\r\n<p>Then the chat was flooded with cat airplanes and cat battleships emojis, with the message: [\u201cXiao Ran, please take us on a tour of the wealthy family!\u201d]<\/p>\r\n<p>Xie Ran: \u201c\u2026\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p>The audience clearly misunderstood him deeply.<\/p>\r\n<p>Just as he was about to refuse, Meng Feixuan tapped his shoulder, looked seriously at the camera, and said: &#8220;What do you think the Meng family is? A place you pay to see? Does the Meng family need this kind of money?\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p>Xie Ran glanced at him sideways, a hint of doubt arising in his heart: so principled? Doesn\u2019t seem like his AI.<\/p>\r\n<p>The audience also started questioning.<\/p>\r\n<p>The other Meng family members were also silent, feeling that Meng Feixuan\u2019s words didn\u2019t mock the viewers but rather seemed to mock the Meng family.<\/p>\r\n<p>Was it just an illusion?<\/p>\r\n<p>Then Meng Feixuan waved his hand grandly and continued: \u201cOf course, no payment needed. I\u2019ll give everyone a free tour.\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p>Audience: [\u201c\u2026LOL\u201d]<\/p>\r\n<p>[\u201cDamn, laughing so hard\u201d]<\/p>\r\n<p>[\u201cThe prince has a great sense of humor~\u201d]<\/p>\r\n<p>The Meng elders were all dazed, unable to appreciate Meng Feixuan\u2019s humor, only feeling that he had definitely just mocked the Meng family!<\/p>\r\n<p>Xie Ran stayed rational. He was used to Meng Feixuan\u2019s mental attacks and could calmly ignore his various remarks, so he wasn\u2019t led astray.<\/p>\r\n<p>He looked at Meng Yucheng politely and asked: &#8220;Mr. Meng, I am livestreaming. I\u2019m afraid there might be inappropriate shots. Is there anything you want me to avoid?\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p>He didn\u2019t care whether or not to tour, nor did he need to explain to viewers, but since Meng Feixuan held the Meng heir status, this was a subtle way to give the Meng family a face-saving way out.<\/p>\r\n<p>This was the tacit understanding between him and his AI assistant.<\/p>\r\n<p>Meng Yucheng was a bit surprised. He thought given Xie Ran\u2019s current resources and strong negotiating stance, he should act more arrogantly.<\/p>\r\n<p>Since Meng Feixuan had started the livestream and proposed touring the Meng family, Xie Ran could have played dumb and accepted the hype. The elders couldn\u2019t interfere with Meng Feixuan\u2019s personal matters, nor hold Xie Ran accountable.<\/p>\r\n<p>But Xie Ran still actively left room for the Meng family.<\/p>\r\n<p>Suddenly, many thoughts flashed through Meng Yucheng\u2019s mind.<\/p>\r\n<p>Xie Ran clearly supported his faction and Meng Siyun, and had directly suppressed Meng Yuguan\u2019s arrogance. He was willing to befriend Xie Ran.<\/p>\r\n<p>\u2026Also, he guessed he couldn\u2019t control his son anymore.<\/p>\r\n<p>Meng Yucheng quickly recovered his natural expression and even smiled professionally yet kindly: \u201cNo problem, Mr. Xie is our honored guest. Feel free to tour.\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p>His words immediately shut down the other Meng elders\u2019 objections. The Meng family was large and divided long ago. The old Meng family residence was where Meng Yucheng\u2019s family lived, and if the family head had no objections, who else could interfere?<\/p>\r\n<p>Xie Ran glanced at Meng Yucheng, roughly guessing his intention, and didn\u2019t say much, just nodded politely and said: &#8220;Then I\u2019ll trouble you.\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p>\u201cNo trouble,\u201d Meng Yucheng smiled and added: &#8220;If needed, I can ask the butler to show you around.\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p>Meng Feixuan spun his wheelchair: \u201cNo need, I\u2019ll lead.\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p>Xie Ran stood and held Meng Feixuan\u2019s wheelchair handle: \u201cOkay, you lead.\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p>The two cooperated perfectly and headed out of the dining room, leaving the Meng family members looking at each other.<\/p>\r\n<p>A serious elder said incredulously: &#8220;Yucheng, are you really letting Siyun mess around like this?\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p>\u201cThis is my home,\u201d Meng Yucheng took the tea from a servant, smiling comfortably: &#8220;If you really can\u2019t stand it, you can complain to Siyun.\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p>The elder: \u201c\u2026which elderly Meng family member dares confront Meng Siyun alone now? They\u2019d probably have a heart attack!\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p>Madam Meng quickly covered her mouth, nearly laughing out loud.<\/p>\r\n<p>These elders always acted arrogantly due to their age. In the past, when Meng Siyun showed them face, arguing often put him at a disadvantage. Now that Meng Siyun didn\u2019t care, they didn\u2019t dare to say a word.<\/p>\r\n<p>Meanwhile, the livestream audience was equally shocked.<\/p>\r\n<p>Streaming from the Meng family was already surprising, a unique hot topic for streamers. But subconsciously, people thought internet celebrities would be weaker than wealthy families. They imagined Xie Ran had barely gotten the Meng family\u2019s approval and was likely nervous or flattering them.<\/p>\r\n<p>But both Meng Siyun and Meng Yucheng\u2019s attitudes were completely unexpected to the netizens.<\/p>\r\n<p>Meng Siyun was said to be Xie Ran\u2019s friend, which was one thing, but Meng Yucheng was the Meng Group\u2019s ruler, family head, and elder, yet extremely polite to Xie Ran. Meanwhile, Xie Ran remained indifferent, neither humble nor arrogant, polite but distant.<\/p>\r\n<p>Some haters wanted to mock Xie Ran for climbing social ranks, but after seeing this, they had nothing to say.<\/p>\r\n<p>In a private bar room, Ying Kaixi and Vitta\u2019s group stared hard at their phone screens.<\/p>\r\n<p>Especially Ying Kaixi, who couldn\u2019t believe what he saw. He suddenly realized he had been deceiving himself all along.<\/p>\r\n<p>The Meng family\u2019s respect for Xie Ran might not be a show of aristocratic manners but genuine.<\/p>\r\n<p>Otherwise, which wealthy family would allow an internet celebrity to livestream at their home?<\/p>\r\n<p>Meng Feixuan even appeared openly in Xie Ran\u2019s livestream without any reservations.<\/p>\r\n<p>\u201cImpossible!\u201d Ying Kaixi suddenly threw his wine glass to the ground, shattering glass everywhere and startling everyone present.<\/p>\r\n<p>He held his head and shouted: &#8220;Break it up! Everyone get out!\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p>\u201cBrother Kaixi, what\u2019s wrong\u2026\u201d Vitta tried to approach since they were close to a win, but Ying Kaixi kicked him away: &#8220;Get away!\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p>Vitta\u2019s face changed: \u201cWhat do you mean?\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p>\u201cYou think you can compete with Xie Ran?\u201d Ying Kaixi lost his mind: &#8220;Look at what you are\u2014\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p>\u201cAnd what are you?!\u201d Vitta lost face too, stood up fast, and kicked back: &#8220;A broke nouveau riche who thinks he\u2019s great but got dumped, can\u2019t even compare to a crippled person\u2014\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p>\u201cShut up! I\u2019m still with Xie Ran, we\u2019re not broken up yet, not yet\u2014\u201d Ying Kaixi, angry and ashamed, wrestled with Vitta.<\/p>\r\n<p>Others hurried over to pull them apart, but drunk people had surprisingly strong strength. The entire private room became a mess instantly.<\/p>\r\n<p>Xie Ran pushed Meng Feixuan\u2019s wheelchair at a steady pace. Meng Feixuan held the selfie stick for the livestream, casually introducing the Meng family\u2019s home to the viewers.<\/p>\r\n<p>\u201cThis is the living room. The furniture has been passed down for generations,\u201d Meng Feixuan commented seriously: &#8220;Very durable. I looked carefully, it\u2019s all patinated\u2026\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p>Viewers: [\u201c&#8230;durable.\u201d]<\/p>\r\n<p>[\u201c&#8230;patinated.\u201d]<\/p>\r\n<p>[\u201cSuch a plain comment.\u201d]<\/p>\r\n<p>[\u201cNever thought the wealthy heir would see furniture the same way I do, lol.\u201d]<\/p>\r\n<p>Xie Ran chuckled quietly, knowing Meng Feixuan\u2019s theory didn\u2019t match practice, and casually added: &#8220;These are huanghuali wood furniture. Because the wood takes a long time to form, they are now quite rare.\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p>Meng Feixuan: \u201cThis is the garden.\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p>Xie Ran: \u201cThis landscape style, the designer should be from the Sujing school. Look at the pond design, it also incorporates some northern-style elements.\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p>Like this, Meng Feixuan led the way, using poor vocabulary to introduce the functional divisions of the house, while Xie Ran casually commented.<\/p>\r\n<p>Xie Ran didn\u2019t say much or try to show off. He treated it like an ordinary walk, mentioning things offhandedly. Every sentence just happened to hit the mark. These things were nothing unusual to him.<\/p>\r\n<p>The viewers cried over the grand mansion and felt dazed by Xie Ran\u2019s posture.<\/p>\r\n<p>They didn\u2019t know if it was just an illusion, but they felt Xie Ran looked more like a wealthy family member than anyone had imagined.<\/p>\r\n<p>&#8230;At least much more than the young master Meng.<\/p>\r\n<p>Though it was said to be a tour of the Meng family\u2019s old residence, Meng Feixuan still maintained AI-level rationality and didn\u2019t really walk through the entire house, only filming some public areas, which probably angered the Meng elders enough. Then he clapped his hands and said: &#8220;Let\u2019s end the livestream here today.\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p>The netizens, unwilling to stop, asked if Meng Feixuan would livestream with Xie Ran again in the future.<\/p>\r\n<p>\u201cIt depends. If the gentleman wants me to, I will,\u201d Meng Feixuan said.<\/p>\r\n<p>He was about to turn off the livestream when the Meng elders came out of the mansion. Their eyes met, and the elders immediately stiffened upon seeing Meng Feixuan still holding the selfie stick, unconsciously straightening up.<\/p>\r\n<p>Meng Sien stood among the elders, feeling very aggrieved.<\/p>\r\n<p>He had been tricked into losing a car for no reason today. His father had been completely defeated in negotiations with Xie Ran. Things were extremely unfavorable. Now seeing Meng Feixuan swaggering while livestreaming, the Meng elders were all angry but dared not speak. This was actually a sign: Meng Feixuan\u2019s influence in the group was growing, and the elders dared not criticize him.<\/p>\r\n<p>Meng Sien\u2019s eyes darkened slightly. He smiled and greeted Meng Feixuan: &#8220;Brother, you\u2019re still livestreaming? We\u2019re about to head to the racetrack. Do you want to come?\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p>As he spoke, he seemed to remember something and stopped abruptly, his face awkward and apologetic, saying helplessly: &#8220;Sorry, I forgot\u2026\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p>Meng Yuguan glared at him and said sternly: &#8220;What\u2019s wrong with you? Think before you speak.\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p>On the surface, they played their parts perfectly, with no flaws.<\/p>\r\n<p>But many viewers in the livestream already heard it.<\/p>\r\n<p>[\u201c&#8230;&#8230;..\u2026\u201d]<\/p>\r\n<p>[\u201cDamn, was that on purpose?\u201d]<\/p>\r\n<p>[\u201cProbably not. Look at his face. He just didn\u2019t react in time.\u201d]<\/p>\r\n<p>Others comforted Meng Feixuan: [\u201cYoung Master Meng, it\u2019s nothing. Don\u2019t take it to heart.\u201d]<\/p>\r\n<p>Though they said that, how could he really not care? The Meng elders all had subtle expressions.<\/p>\r\n<p>Meng Siyun used to be the emperor\u2019s favored son and was good at equestrian noble sports. Now, naturally, he had completely given up the racetrack.<\/p>\r\n<p>No matter how good his mentality was or how arrogant he was after returning to the group, some things would never be the same.<\/p>\r\n<p>Meng Sien made a big show, glancing at Meng Feixuan, waiting for him to show embarrassment. This was a livestream, his cousin was so proud, and even though he could face his disability now, Meng Sien didn\u2019t believe he wouldn\u2019t care or be affected when talking about his once-proud horsemanship.<\/p>\r\n<p>Meng Feixuan was indeed affected. His eyes suddenly lit up, a twisted smile appeared on his face, and his voice was filled with joy: \u201cHorse riding!\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p>Meng Sien: \u201c&#8230;?\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p>Others: ???<\/p>\r\n<p>That reaction was wrong, wasn\u2019t it?!<\/p>\r\n<p>Meng Feixuan turned to look at Xie Ran, his eyes full of expectation: \u201cSir, let\u2019s go horse riding.\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p>Xie Ran looked at his legs: \u201cYou can\u2019t.\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p>\u201cI can!\u201d Meng Feixuan held his head high: &#8220;Anyway, with you leading me, it doesn\u2019t matter if I have legs or not.\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p>He drifted the wheelchair and said proudly: &#8220;Besides, I\u2019m still agile elsewhere.\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p>The Meng family: \u201c\u2026\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p>The livestream chat: [\u201c&#8230;&#8230;..\u2026\u201d]<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.patreon.com\/bePatron?u=25191841\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"217\" height=\"51\" class=\"wp-image-338 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ontimestory.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/become_a_patron_button.png?resize=217%2C51\" alt=\"\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 217px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 217\/51;\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ko-fi.com\/lajnaa\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ontimestory.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/kofi3-3.png?resize=185%2C47\" alt=\"This image has an empty alt attribute; its file name is kofi3-3.png\" width=\"185\" height=\"47\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 185px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 185\/47;\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\r\n\r\n<p><!--EndFragment--><\/p>\r\n<p><!--EndFragment--><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Although Meng Feixuan\u2019s camera only flashed by briefly, it was enough for the livestream viewers to get an overview of the Meng family banquet.
