Chapter 159
There were two skinny boys standing beside Lana, both wearing branded hoodies and jeans with meticulously groomed hair. However, their naturally slouched postures and carefree laughter exuded a familiar loser” vibe that Larissa was accustomed to, which contrasted with her impression of a sloppy homebody live streamer.
Raina immediately pulled Zero, saying, “Let’s leave later.” But it was already too late.
“Isn’t that Bro Zero?” One of the boys waved at Zero. His expression was killed with arrogance and was devoid of politeness. “Sorry, Bro Zero, Dark Knight and I beat you down to third place on the gift board today. I hope you’re not mad at us.”
Raina and Maggie were displeased with the boy’s manner of speaking, and even Larissa furrowed her brows upon hearing his words.
However, Zero remained indifferent. “No, you deserved it.”
BestM had hoped that his taunt would enrage Zero. But since nothing happened, he could only clench his teeth in frustration, Dark Knight.
standing next to Best wore an unpleasant expression on his face.
The elevator arrived just in time. Lana, who had been engrossed in her phone, Inally lifted her head but avoided eye contact with anyone. Instead, she impatiently urged the two boys, “Let’s go! Stop wasting timer
The two arrogant boys instantly became obedient and followed Lana into the elevator.
Meanwhile, Larissa was still processing what she had just witnessed even after the elevator doors had closed. She had never seen Lana exert such dominance. Lana had always appeared soft sweet and coquettish in front of her. But somehow, Larissa now had the
impression that this dominant side of Lana was who she truly was.
“Those two used to call Zero Bro Zero‘ so sweetly when they first came here. They used to always come to our studio, saying they wanted to learn how to stream from you! But now, they’ve forgotten who they were once they tasted success! Raina said angrily,
Zero grabbed Raina’s shoulder and comforted her. “Calm down. Regardless. I’m still in the top three, right?”
“Yeah, but I’m just angry! They didn’t reach their current heights based on their own merits. It’s all thanks to Lana’s connections. How dare they mock you? They have no sense of decency! Let’s wait until the day Lana stops supporting them!” Raina crossed her arms and rolled
her eyes as she spoke.
“Alright, alright. That’s enough. The elevator is here.” Another elevator arrived. Zero quickly pulled Raina toward it barely managing to stop
her angry scolding.
The two elevators arrived within minutes of each other. Therefore, as they reached the ground floor, they happened to see Lana leaving the building with her two anchors. Another car was parked outside, and the boys skillfully opened the door and got in, but Lana didn’t join them, Instead, she entered the black Maserati behind them.
