How about making cookies?

"So, that's it for today?" A Shui, who had been silent for a long time, spoke up to ease the tension.

Since the two involved parties couldn't continue this little game, their stream was probably coming to an end for the day, right?

"It should be about time. Yuuka, why don't you think carefully about how you'll approach her when you 'accidentally' meet her tomorrow?" Zhao Yu asked.

He couldn't teach Yuuka this either, as he, who had been single his entire life, had no experience dealing with such situations.

As for the viewers in the stream, Zhao Yu felt they couldn't offer any good advice either. After all, they were all guys, and understanding a girl's heart was a bit too difficult.

"Actually, I don't have much of a problem with approaching her," Yuuka said after a moment of thought.

With Zhao Yu's companionship, Yuuka wasn't as scared, so this wasn't a difficult task for her.

"But, I'm worried that if she rejects me, she'll be very sad?"

This was Yuuka's biggest concern. Just as Zhao Yu had said, Yuuka actually had great respect for feelings like love.

So, how to reasonably reject Qigong Shiori while still allowing her to save face was what Yuuka was struggling with.

[I'm crying, how can Yuuka and the streamer be so thoughtful?]

[Reminds me of when I confessed and was rejected, and she rejected me publicly...]

[Stop talking, upstairs. She even threw the flowers I gave her in the trash right in front of me.]

[Are all the comments from simps? We single dogs are better off.]

First, Zhao Yu's respectful words towards Yuuka, and then Yuuka's reluctance to embarrass Qigong Shiori. This made the viewers realize, for the first time in a long time, that there were indeed people in the world who treated others as human beings.

"I believe that if your feelings are sincere and you respect the other person without causing them trouble, then it's not your fault," Zhao Yu said, looking at the comments.

"Whether you're a guy or a girl, those who disrespect genuine feelings won't meet someone who genuinely loves them. Love itself is about mutual respect, so... don't worry about those who trample on your sincerity. Someone will always value your true heart."

[Well said! I also think mutual respect is the foundation of love. As for those persistent people, if they give up their own dignity, how can they expect others to respect them?]

[Suddenly feel like the streamer is something else.]

[Relationship guru.]

"No, I'm not a relationship guru, I just want to tell you all..." Zhao Yu paused.

"Young kings, maintain your clarity in love. As for your problem, Yuuka, ummm, Shuizi Ge, do you have any ideas?"

After interacting with the comments, Zhao Yu didn't forget Yuuka, but he hadn't thought of any good ideas yet.

However, A Shui always had good emotional intelligence, so listening to his opinion might be rewarding.

"Young kings, that sounds so pretentious... that phrase," A Shui muttered to himself.

"No, no, no, this isn't pretentiousness. In my opinion, everyone is the king of their own lives, and only you can decide your own choices," Zhao Yu said.

"So, Shuizi Ge, do you have any ideas?"

"Now that you mention it, I actually do have an idea," A Shui said, rubbing his chin.

"Tell me. If it's feasible, I'll take the Compendium of Materia Medica to the recording studio to record it as soon as this is over. You'll be the first to have the complete studio version," Zhao Yu began to entice A Shui.

"You can't go back on your word!" A Shui's eyes lit up.

He could confidently say that this song would definitely be a hit in the future. A song that so strongly promoted Chinese culture would undoubtedly have immense value in competitions.

Just listening to the song made A Shui wish he could go back to the arena and win another championship.

If this song were played during the awards ceremony, it would absolutely be the most dazzling sight in the LPL.

"Cough, cough, it's time for this bro to show off." A Shui cleared his throat.

"Based on my experience watching anime, many 'loser' characters receive gifts like '義理チョコ' ( giri-choco, or obligation chocolates). If Yuuka feels bad, she could actually give a similar gift."

"That actually makes a lot of sense..." Zhao Yu fell into thought.

A small gift could express Yuuka's appreciation for the other person's feelings while also clearly telling them that friendship was possible, but a romantic relationship was not.

This way, it could completely resolve the awkwardness for the other person.

[Shuizi Ge's most useful episode.]

[Honestly, it's a good idea. If I received a rejection gift from someone I liked, I'd just think she's a nice person, not feel awkward.]

[After all, the gift itself isn't important. It's the respect for those feelings that matters.]

[Brilliant! No need for further words!]

"Jack-san, thank you!" Yuuka also thought it was a great idea and quickly thanked A Shui.

"Hahaha, it's nothing, really. I think even if I hadn't said anything, Yuuka would have thought of it herself," A Shui said, scratching his head sheepishly.

"So, should it be chocolate or something else?" Zhao Yu asked.

"If it's chocolate, the timing feels a bit off. It's usually for Valentine's Day or White Day, right?" A Shui said.

"Then... how about making some cookies or something?" Yuuka tentatively suggested.

"Cookies are perfect! That's just right!" Zhao Yu nodded in agreement.

With chocolate, there was still a risk of misunderstanding if it wasn't specified as giri-choco, but cookies wouldn't have that problem.

"Then I'll figure out how to make cookies myself. I have an oven in the apartment," Yuuka said.

"Figure it out yourself?" A Shui keenly caught onto the key point.

"Actually, I'm not very good at cooking. I was planning to improve my culinary skills while also working as a food blogger," Yuuka said sheepishly.

"It's fine if you're not good at it, someone else is!" A Shui quickly started hinting.

"I remember watching your recorded streams before, didn't he say he could cook?"

"Lord Yu did say he can cook, but can he make cookies too?" Yuuka asked.

"Don't worry, simple things like this are no problem," Zhao Yu said.

"There you go, why don't you just start a live stream on your phone later and show us how to make cookies?" A Shui continued to hint at Zhao Yu.

"Yuuka won't have to look for other tutorials either, isn't this killing two birds with one stone?"

Only then did Zhao Yu realize that A Shui was finding him new content for his live stream!

"Is everyone interested in making cookies?" Zhao Yu asked the comments.

"How about I join the live stream too? It'll be a good chance for Lord Yu to correct my mistakes while I'm making them," Yuuka suggested.

[Huh? The streamer and Yuuka live streaming to make cookies? Does this mean you'll both be on camera?]

[I wasn't interested at first, but now I am!]

Who wouldn't be curious to see what this Japanese girl, who had been in the stream for so long, actually looked like? After all, human curiosity is comparable to that of a cat.

The number of viewers in the stream surged again because of this.

"I don't have a problem with showing my face, but what about Yuuka? Is it okay with you?" Zhao Yu asked Yuuka, looking at the comments.

"I'm fine with it too!" Yuuka quickly replied.

Last time, Yuuka knew about Zhao Yu's video being uploaded to the Sound platform after watching a recording, but since the Sound platform is a Huaxia app, she hadn't had time to download it yet.

Now she could see what Zhao Yu looked like without downloading anything, so how could Yuuka refuse?
