Her Food Livestream Broke the Galaxy

Chapter 589 - 608: Qiuqiu: Isn’t This What You’ve Always Wanted to Do?

But before he could throw a punch, Qian Duoduo said with a smile, "You have a junior editor here named Meimei, don’t you?"

"I see from her file that her parents work for a company in the Federation."

"Xingxing, if you lay a hand on me here, the people I just mentioned might all have to leave Federation Star."

He pulled back his fist.

His gaze grew even more disdainful.

Although Qian Xingxing had long since stopped considering Qian Duoduo his father, he was still furious to be looked at with such contempt.

"You’ll never succeed."

"If you’d actually hit me, I might have respected you a little."

"Letting yourself be held back by a few ants... I was wrong. You’re completely unsuited to be the future leader."

"So you can just stay here and reflect on your failures. I won’t revoke your position. You can be the editor-in-chief of this branch office for the rest of your life—along with that little, unpresentable editor of yours."

With that, Qian Duoduo left.

After he was gone, Qian Xingxing felt even more lost.

Dejected, lost, with no future in sight, he had been wallowing in indecision ever since.

Jiang Qiuqiu processed all this information.

"So what’s your next move?"

"I don’t know." After taking one blow after another, his confidence was beginning to crumble.

Jiang Qiuqiu knew this wasn’t a healthy state of mind. "Are you just going to stay here forever?" she asked, beginning to guide him.

"No, I don’t want to."

"Then do you want to plan another takeover?"

"That’s impossible." Qian Xingxing knew it in his heart. ’Even after everything I said, the shareholders still chose him—’ It meant they weren’t on his side.

They were likely all tied together by some dirty deals, and Qian Xingxing wasn’t one to stoop to that level.

He didn’t want to stay, and he didn’t want to play along with their games.

Didn’t that leave Qian Xingxing with only one path forward?

Jiang Qiuqiu asked him, "Didn’t you have a Plan B in case your takeover failed? You can just use that now, can’t you?"

"But..."

His original Plan B had been to take his promising streamers and a core team, start his own company, and build it up slowly. After all, he had plenty of Star Coins.

But now, "We have no people, no streamers."

"That’s not such a big problem, is it? Look at Wanxing. What do you think of her?"

"A very capable employee."

"Exactly. Your shares must be worth a fortune, right? And I have some savings. If we need people, we can just hire them. The salaries for recent graduates aren’t that high. We can definitely afford to hire them."

Besides, young students are always more passionate, more driven.

And they’d be more likely to align with Qian Xingxing’s ideals.

"But what about streamers...?"

"If you could find streamers on those apps once, you can do it again. Little President Qian, you have to believe in yourself."

Qian Xingxing pressed his lips together.

His hand on the table clenched and unclenched, again and again. Jiang Qiuqiu saw the struggle in his eyes. After a long moment, he asked softly, "Qiuqiu, can I really succeed?"

After days of taking hits, the once-confident young man had begun to doubt himself.

Jiang Qiuqiu didn’t immediately promise him he would succeed or anything of the sort. She was direct. "Isn’t this what you’ve always wanted to do?"

"If you want to do it, then do it. So what if you fail? We can afford to lose."

Her voice wasn’t loud, but to Qian Xingxing, it resonated with boundless courage.

Her encouragement finally rekindled his fighting spirit. "You’re right."

"This is what I’ve always wanted to do."

He was going to do it!
