Chapter Sixty-Two: Is This What You Had Left Over?

"A good guy indeed, I've learned something new."
"If you've learned it, hurry up and act. The smart ones are already looking for dogs, the dumb ones are still spamming the chat."
"Anyone want to team up? You be the one who gets bitten by the dog."
"Let me advertise: sleep with a rich lady, 8,800 per session, you get 8,000, I take an 800 introduction fee. Get paid as soon as you wake up, four rich ladies a day, monthly income in the tens of thousands. Requirements: good appearance, strong physique, special skills, can eat screws without a toothpick, able to handle anything. If you’re capable, come on."
"Is there a moderator here? Please mute the one advertising."
"Hold off a bit, a friend of mine wants the contact info."
...

Once again, Bai Qingming generously shared another big money-making idea with his followers, leaving everyone in awe. The Singles’ Godfather was truly impressive.

To be honest, seeing a few stray dogs on the roadside, even Brother Wang was almost tempted.

But remembering the real reason he called Bai Qingming, he quickly became serious.

"Bro, let’s set aside making money for now. Actually, I have something I need your help with," Brother Wang said.

"What is it?" Bai Qingming looked at him.

"It's not that big a deal, just..." Brother Wang rubbed his hands together. "Ever since you taught me some online chatting techniques the other day, I feel like I've had an epiphany. Lately, I've been flirting online with much more success—even got a girl to fall for my charm and ask to meet me tonight."

"Oh, I see~" Bai Qingming replied with a knowing tone. "You're not confident in yourself, think you’re not as handsome as me, afraid of screwing up, so you want me to help you out, right? No problem, I’m in. By the way, is the girl good-looking?"

He agreed instantly.

Brother Wang was stunned for a moment.

"No, what I mean is, I'm not good with words and have no real-life experience. I just wanted to learn a few more things from you before my first time out."

To be honest, Bai Qingming’s earlier words were a bit insulting, but the worst part was, they were true. Fortunately, Brother Wang was straightforward and didn’t notice.

Bai Qingming realized what he meant and didn’t refuse.

"Let me see your chat history first. I want to see how you’ve been talking to her," Bai Qingming said after a moment’s thought.

Brother Wang pulled out a second phone, quickly opened a WeChat chat, and handed it over. The entire conversation was there for Bai Qingming to see.

Brother Wang: "What are you doing?"

The girl: "Eating."

Brother Wang: "What are you eating?"

The girl: "Noodles."

Brother Wang: "What kind of noodles?"

The girl: "Just noodles, you know, pulled noodles."

Brother Wang: "Are they Lanzhou pulled noodles or something else?"

The girl: "Lanzhou pulled noodles."

Brother Wang: "Large or small portion?"

The girl: "I’m riding my bike, can’t talk now."

Brother Wang: "What kind of bike?"

The girl: "Electric scooter."

Brother Wang: "Is your scooter nice to ride?"

The girl: "..."

Brother Wang: "What brand is your scooter? How many people can it carry? How much did it cost? Why can’t you chat while riding? Don’t worry, believe in yourself, I always play on my phone while riding, practice more and you’ll get the hang of it too."

The girl: "Do you dare tell me your home address?"

...

At the end was Brother Wang’s address; the chat ended there.

When he finished reading, Bai Qingming was speechless.

Brother Wang’s chat… there was no one like him. The epitome of a clueless straight man! This wasn’t the girl asking him out—she’d clearly had enough and wanted to come beat him up.

"Brother Wang, if you ask me, you’d better not go home tonight," Bai Qingming said after some thought, deciding to break the truth to him.

Brother Wang was stunned for two seconds, then deflated like a balloon, muttering, "Good thing I gave her your apartment’s address."

Bai Qingming: "???"

At that moment, Bai Qingming was struck by inspiration. His eyes lit up—what a great opportunity for another live demonstration!

"Come on, Brother Wang, I’m taking you somewhere nice," he said mysteriously.

Ten minutes later.

The two of them arrived at a bar.

Bai Qingming decided to teach Brother Wang a few more tricks about picking up girls.

Before entering, Bai Qingming turned on his livestream.

As expected, a large number of followers were already waiting in the stream.

The moment Bai Qingming appeared, everyone greeted him enthusiastically.

"Our spiritual leader is here! What’s the stream about today?"

"It’s been ages since you sang. My roommate has a terminal illness and wants to hear you sing before he goes."

"Petition for a new song from the streamer!"

"If you don’t release a new song soon, I’ll send gifts to insult you."

You had to admit, Bai Qingming’s viewers were passionate, and they loved to tease him, sending gifts non-stop.

Unfortunately, Bai Qingming had no plans for a singing session today.

"Brothers, last time I taught everyone how to chat with girls on the phone. Today, by popular demand, I’m going to teach you how to quickly gain a girl’s favor in real life and create chances to approach her," he announced, changing the stream’s title to "Master of Love Live Tutorial, Episode Two."

The atmosphere in the chat heated up immediately.

"For technique, you have to watch the Singles’ Godfather. My notebook’s ready, waiting for the lesson."

"After over twenty years, am I finally about to find a girlfriend?"

"New viewers, don’t get too excited. Last time I followed the spiritual leader’s advice and approached a girl in my class. Her boyfriend beat me up, and I’m still in the hospital. By the way, the hospital wifi is super fast."

"Can you tell me, are the nurses’ legs really as fair as they say?"

As expected, learning how to pick up girls was much more popular than singing.

With just a few words, Bai Qingming’s viewers were even more enthusiastic, and their jokes doubled.

And so, Bai Qingming dragged Brother Wang into the bar and found a booth.

Today’s goal was clear: while teaching, he would also help Brother Wang fulfill his long-held dream of landing a girl.

After surveying the bar, Bai Qingming addressed his viewers.

"Brothers, picking up girls is actually simple. All you need to understand is the essence of it, which is to make being considerate towards girls your instinct, so that from the smallest details, you leave a good first impression."

"Now, I’ll demonstrate. Watch closely."

With that, Bai Qingming got up and asked a server for a pack of tissues.

Glancing around, he headed toward the restroom.

He didn’t go in for any particular reason—just washed his hands.

As he was leaving, a girl happened to be washing her hands at the entrance.

There were no paper towels by the sink, so after washing, Bai Qingming naturally offered her a tissue from his pack.

"Miss, would you like a tissue?" he asked.

"Thank you," she replied, taking one. She glanced at Bai Qingming a couple more times, her cheeks suddenly flushing as she shyly said, "Are you here alone? Do you want to have a drink together?"

"Thank you, but I drove here. If I get drunk, my Bugatti Veyron will have to stay here overnight," Bai Qingming declined politely and returned to his seat.

He was only demonstrating—there was no need to actually go drink with her.

"Brothers, did you get that? It may have just been a pack of tissues, but girls really care about details. Like just now, by always carrying tissues and offering one, she’ll feel I’m a considerate guy, creating an opening for conversation. Once you have that, everything else gets easier," Bai Qingming explained in detail.

His viewers suddenly saw the light.

"I learned something! Off to buy tissues right now!"

"I’ve got tissues at home, but where can I pick up a Bugatti Veyron?"

"You guys are so rigid. Even the streamer didn’t actually drive his car. Don’t you know how to bluff?"

"Earlier, when I was playing League of Legends, my girlfriend—actually, I guess she’s my ex now—said I’m not attentive to details. So I smacked her, brought her to my computer, and showed her that I didn’t miss a single minion in the first wave. Isn’t that detailed enough?"

...

Meanwhile, Brother Wang indicated that he understood as well.

"I’ll give it a try too."

He got up, also asked the server for a pack of tissues, and waited by the restroom for a long time until finally a pretty girl came out.

Seeing his chance, he hurried over.

At that moment, countless viewers in the stream focused on Brother Wang.

Imitating Bai Qingming, Brother Wang took out his tissues and offered them.

"Miss, would you like a tissue?"

The girl turned to look him up and down, her eyes quickly filling with disdain.

"Are these your used tissues? That’s disgusting."

Brother Wang: "..."
