I became a global celebrity by live-streaming my sleep Chapter 9

With a playful kiss, the livestream chat exploded with excitement, but aside from the S boss, no one else appeared until the stream ended.

The sponsor was socially awkward, and Luo Yu understood.

By the time the livestream wrapped up, it was already past two in the morning. Luo Yu turned off the stream, forcing down the smile that had been creeping up at the corners of his mouth.

Lazily leaning back in his chair, he yawned so deeply that tears formed in his eyes, then he grabbed a tissue to wipe them away.

Standing up, he carefully stretched his lower back.

Luo Yu had a slender build, with only a thin layer of muscle, and after sleeping on the hard table for a while, his whole body felt sore.

If he kept sleeping like that for a hundred days, his back would definitely be ruined.

But having a decent set of furniture to sleep on was already a luxury. A big table room cost a hundred bucks a day!

Luo Yu took a big gulp of water to soothe his throat and noticed that no one had come to the lounge yet, so he took a few steps to lie down on the soft couch:

“Admin, I want to draw for props.”

[You currently have 2 draws remaining in your personal space. Would you like to use them all?]

“Use them, use them!”

The sleeping pills he had drawn last time had saved his life, and in the past couple of days, he had only slept for ninety minutes yet felt refreshed.

[Randomly drawing props… Congratulations! You have obtained an A-grade item: one solid wood super king-sized double bed!]

“A bed? Is that useful to me?”

Luo Yu pulled at the corner of his mouth:

“A super king-sized bed? Do I look like someone who has room for a bed? What I need isn’t a bed; I need a mansion that can fit this bed!”

[Also includes one latex mattress and a popular sexy black lace four-piece set!]

Luo Yu’s eyelid twitched: “What sexy lace?”

[It’s a gift. If the traveler is unsatisfied, they can purchase a four-piece set to replace it.]

Luo Yu choked a bit: “Forget it, I’ll just throw it into my personal space to gather dust!” He then smiled slowly at the void: “Dear admin, how about drawing me a suite for the second round?”

[Second draw in progress… Congratulations! You have obtained a B-grade item: a bedtime nourishment gift box. Contains a box of sleep masks, a jar of sleep-inducing incense, and a bottle of bedtime body lotion.]

Luo Yu: …

It sounded like none of that was really useful.

Luo Yu tentatively asked, “That sleep-inducing incense, in this world, is it considered an antique?”

[Yes.] The admin hesitated for a moment: [But it’s not worth much.]

Luo Yu rolled his eyes and threw everything into his personal space.

He took out his phone, opened the “Starry” platform, and saw that a hundred bucks had appeared in his account.

The summer college student streamer support program stated that streamers who broadcast for over two hours daily could cash out a hundred bucks a day.

Luo Yu quickly withdrew the money and then checked his balance for other gift earnings.

Although he had to split the profits fifty-fifty with the platform, thanks to the S boss, it was still a considerable amount.

Unfortunately, he wouldn’t be able to withdraw it until early next month…

Suddenly, there was a knock on the lounge door.

Luo Yu jumped off the couch and opened the door.

Wen Li was standing outside, followed by a few students.

“Little Luo, I see you’ve finished your stream, right?” Wen Li was still wearing a white sweatshirt, smiling warmly as he looked down at him. “Someone else needs to use the lounge.”

“It’s done! Thanks, senior.” Luo Yu stepped aside to let the people behind Wen Li enter the lounge, then followed him toward the first floor of the activity center.

“Today’s stream was pretty good; it really helped with our sleep research project’s publicity…” Wen Li always had a gentle smile when he spoke, “Do you know anyone looking to rent a room?”

Rent a room? Luo Yu raised his eyes.

“I have a place outside the campus, about fifty square meters, ten minutes from the school. The previous tenant just moved out, and I’m looking to rent it out again.”

Oh right, he could rent a place too!

Luo Yu’s eyes lit up!

Previously, his balance hadn’t allowed him to consider renting, but the gifts from the S boss had given him the confidence.

Luo Yu blurted out, “How much is it for a month?”

Wen Li smiled: “The full rent is three thousand five hundred a month, which is the cheapest around the school. But if there’s an A university student looking for a short-term rental this summer, it could be three thousand a month. After all, student tenants are generally easier to manage.”

Wen Li slightly tilted his head, gazing intently at Luo Yu, then added slowly:

“If it’s a student working a summer job who hasn’t been paid yet, they can move in first and pay the rent at the end of the month.”

Luo Yu’s eyes widened!

“I want to rent it.”

Luo Yu urgently tugged at the sleeve of Wen Li’s sweatshirt like a little kitten:

“Senior, please rent it to me. If I’m streaming, I’d like to have a better environment; it’ll be more effective.”

What was even more important was that he could finally set up his bed!

“Of course, that would be the best.”

Wen Li surprisingly showed no sign of shock and readily agreed:

“Just wait until the end of the month; you can pay me rent after you get your streaming money. Besides, you’re helping out in the project group, so you’re not going anywhere.”

In an instant, Luo Yu’s back didn’t hurt anymore, and his eyes sparkled like crescent moons: “Thank you, senior!”

“It’s my honor to help Little Luo.”

Luo Yu had just been sleeping on the table and had messy hair, so Wen Li couldn’t help but reach out to gently smooth his bangs, his fingertips brushing across his forehead:

“Shall I take you to see the place now? Afterward, I’ll take you to the history department research room. It won’t be too busy on your first day in the project.”

At noon, the sun was shining brightly.

Luo Yu spent the entire morning in the history department research room, sorting through historical records about sleep.

At twelve o’clock, he left right on time for lunch.

He jogged back to his dorm, excited, and pulled out a black suitcase from under the desk, beginning to stuff clothes from the wardrobe inside.

“Luo Yu, are you going home for the summer?”

Qin Li was on a winning streak in his game, ready to show off to Luo Yu, but when he turned around and saw Luo Yu packing, he felt like a bucket of cold water had been thrown over him.

“Didn’t we agree to stay together over the summer?”

“I’m not going home,” Luo Yu hummed a tune. “I rented a place off-campus for streaming convenience!”

“Why do you need to rent a place?”

Qin Li became anxious, squatting down beside Luo Yu as he packed.

Last night, he had been glued to his phone, watching Luo Yu’s livestream. Nearly two and a half hours, he hadn’t taken his eyes off the screen for a second.

Even the moment when Luo Yu buried his head on the table had seemed unbearably cute!

“If you’re streaming, you can just do it in the dorm. I promise I’ll be quiet nearby.”

In the dorm?

What if the duty dorm supervisor caught him? They’d be sending him to the hospital every night in turns!

That scene was too beautiful to imagine, so Luo Yu closed his eyes:

“Renting a place gives me more room to work on my streams; I can set up the background better.”

Qin Li was eager to keep Luo Yu around but couldn’t find a good reason, so he hurriedly helped Luo Yu gather clothes from the wardrobe: “When are you coming back to the dorm?”

Luo Yu took the last few shirts from him, zipped up his suitcase, stood up, and said confidently:

“I’ll definitely be back in three months!”

Three months.

By then, he would have completed that damned hundred-day sleep task and saved his life.

Then he’d come back and be an ordinary college student who doesn’t sleep for twenty-four hours.

Qin Li’s expression turned increasingly worried: “That’s too long! Can I come visit you…? Let me help you with the suitcase!”

“No, no, I can manage!” Luo Yu laughed, refusing Qin Li’s offer. “You can come find me whenever I’m not streaming or helping with the school project.”

“Alright then.” Qin Li let go of him and silently watched as Luo Yu left the dorm, pulling a gigantic suitcase behind him.

Under the summer sun, the flowers were lush and climbing over the metal fence of the community.

Luo Yu stepped on the dappled light, heading to the nearest community to the school—“Sleepless Home”—and took out the key card Wen Li had given him to swipe open the gate.

The old man in the security booth noticed him and called out:

“Newly moved in? You can pick up sleep medication at the A1 first-floor hall. It starts at 11 PM, so come early to avoid the line!”

Luo Yu nodded obediently and walked all the way to room 1302 on the first floor of A1, swiping his card to enter his new home.

Passing through the wooden entrance, he found a spacious and bright living room with floor-to-ceiling windows, fully furnished with everything he needed.

Ahead was a hallway; on the left was the bedroom, and at the end was the bathroom.

At four in the morning, under Wen Li’s guidance, Luo Yu had already toured the place. Now he skillfully pushed open the bedroom door and quickly moved the high-end massage chair that was originally in the bedroom to the living room.

With the bedroom now clear of furniture, Luo Yu took a deep breath, feeling invigorated: “Admin, bring out my bed!”

[Do you need help setting up the gift four-piece bedding set?]

“That would be great!” Luo Yu’s lips curled into a slight smile.

A few seconds later…

A deep brown solid wood king-sized bed appeared with a loud “thud” in the center of the bedroom.

The headboard pressed against the wall, filling two-thirds of the room.

The bed was already laid with smooth, soft sheets in a deep, mysterious black like the night sky. The matching down pillows and duvet were neatly arranged without a wrinkle.

Luo Yu was stunned.

Although he knew it was a king size… he had never seen a bed this large.

From elementary school to college, Luo Yu had always lived on campus, sleeping on a single bed less than a meter wide.

During the winter and summer breaks at his uncle’s house, he had shared a bed with his cousin, leaving even less space than in the school dorms.

Luo Yu’s gaze slowly descended.

The duvet hung over the edge of the bed, revealing a very noticeable, winding black lace trim.

Luo Yu snapped back to reality.

His eyelids fluttered at the sight of the lace: “Haha, admin, how about you take away this four-piece set instead?”

[The detected value of a normal four-piece bedding set in the traveler’s current world is over ten thousand. Would you like to remove it?]

Luo Yu: …

A hotel bed costs two thousand a night, so it didn’t seem strange for a four-piece set to be worth over ten thousand.

“Leave it! Leave it!” Luo Yu immediately lowered his head, “It’s just lace! Absolutely gorgeous. Anyone who doesn’t like it has no taste.”

It had been a long time since he experienced sleeping on a bed, and Luo Yu couldn’t wait to dive onto the huge bed.

The soft mattress cradled him like a cloud, and his face sank into the down pillow, as if he had fallen into a pile of cotton.

“Comfortable…”

Luo Yu closed his eyes, his voice muffled as he let out a long sigh, hugged the pillow, rolled around a few times, then reluctantly got up and rushed downstairs—he still needed to run errands at the history department office!

As he closed the door, Luo Yu glanced around the room and smiled.

He had already thought about how to stream tonight!

So many viewers had generously sent gifts yesterday; he decided to give back to everyone…
