Chapter 249: Recognized

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Su Qingcen, still cloaked as a cameraman, felt nervous yet excited at the same time.

At first, she was entertained by her method of wandering around, even finding it invigorating.

Meng Fan boldly continued his stream and several people had recognized him along the way, which meant they would inevitably be swarmed. They were, for sure, being followed and discussed the entire way.

But following behind them and filming the commotion filled her with excitement and adrenaline.

Slowly, Su Qingcen’s interest shifted onto Meng Fan.

“This guy is way too entertaining!”

Of course. The entire way, Meng Fan had imitated Mr. Li Lihong’s narration. Even if they continued to eat without lining up — and eat for free at that — it was fine. But there were actual store owners willing to give Meng Fan money to imitate the narrator from ‘Taste of China’ to describe their own food.

Meng Fan cooperated, too. Needless to say, his narrations were stunning; even the description of the dishes adhered to the series.

His incredible voice was a given, but his brain worked so fast, too. Where was he finding these descriptive words? And they came on the spot, too! It was as if an editor had prepared a script for him in his mind.

Alright. Meng Fan’s literary abilities weren’t that great; it was his black magic devices that were the heroes. He could search any interface and come up with a set of words to swindle people. All he had to do was read off it.

It was entertaining, but Su Qingcen was irritated as well. You can narrate and eat all you want, but why do you have to blindly wave all these delicacies in front of the camera!

All the viewers on stream were cursing him, and Su Qingcen wanted to join them.

She was hungry, too!

Her eyes were crooked from glaring at him, yet this guy pretended not to notice her!

Walking halfway, Su Qingcen finally burst after seeing the pork belly skewer in Meng Fan’s hands. After gesturing several times at Meng Fan to no avail, she became impatient. “Save one for me.”

As she spoke, she reached out and snatched the last skewer from Meng Fan’s hand, pulled down her face mask to reveal her mouth and began to chomp down gluttonously.

She’d been tempted by Meng Fan. This skewer was definitely the best grilled pork belly Su Qingcen had had in her life so far. Afterwards, she pointed to Meng Fan and then at the stall, holding up two fingers, thought about it, then changed it to five instead.

“Uncle, can I get five more skewers please? Yes, they’re delicious!”

Meng Fan only had to turn around and ask the boss for five more skewers before taking out his phone to pay with the QR code. Although the store owner had offered them for free, Meng Fan still insisted on scanning. As for the narration requests, he had to confirm that he wasn’t the actual narrator from “Taste of China” and happily narrated the dish anyways. There was no way he’d ask for compensation.

Of course, if Meng Fan asked for five skewers and the owner insisted on gifting a few extra, he wasn’t going to go back and pay for the rest.

“Huh? Whose voice was that just now? Why does it sound so familiar?”

“Does Meng Fatty have a professional cameraman?”

“I think Meng Fan has a real cameraman with him today!”

“Shan Jin bro! That voice was definitely Shan Jin bro!”

“I think so, too!”

“Shan Jin bro is Meng Fatty’s cameraman? Don’t f*cking kill me!”

“Don’t lie! If Shan Jin bro was there, how come no one’s noticed her yet!”

“Yeah, I didn’t hear anyone scream Shan Jin bro this whole stream!”

“Could it be… Shan Jin bro is hiding?”

“Are they role playing at night?”

“Holy sh*t, why do I feel like I’m watching an idol drama!”

“You guys wait and see!”

The viewer count for his stream had exceeded 500,000. Perhaps it was due to Meng Fan’s stream being down to earth this time around and, with his mesmerizing voice, several viewers who were not fans of his stream were drawn to it based on others’ recommendations. This included several people who were searching for mukkbangs to watch as they ate.

Of course, there were also netizens who recognized Meng Fan’s location and happened to be nearby. About fifteen minutes ago, several fickle netizens had already approached Meng Fan for photos, even introducing other great eats along the streets.

Others were on their way.

Aside from the netizens, Meng Fan had been recognized by other pedestrians as well. He was greeted by “Iron God, you’re a badass,” or “Iron Hero, you’re so manly.”

Many of these comments came from Meng Fan’s genuine fans, the kind who’d send copious amounts of gifts that convert to real life cash. They’d been following Meng Fan, but didn’t try to steal the spotlight. They didn’t ask for anything else except to watch the live stream from the audience. At most, they just told Meng Fan which store had the best food.

They watched the live stream and they spectated the scene as well. Seldomly, they’d respond to some live comments until they saw the discussion regarding the ‘voice’ that just appeared.

These people had been focused on Meng Fan and didn’t hear what the cameraman was saying. But after taking a look, they couldn’t peel their eyes off her.

They could understand the modest clothing and the face mask, but to be wearing sunglasses this late at night… That was a bit strange.

At that moment, the cameraman received the five pork belly skewers and habitually said thanks. This one word, and her cautious gesture to move the mask aside for the food, was enough for anyone that wasn’t dumb to realize she was Su Qingcen!

It was as if they just discovered America. Their excitement swelled.

Meng Fan and Su Qingcen instantly realized their actions. Meng Fan hurriedly turned to his netizens and shook his head, gesturing them to stay silent. Surprisingly, the netizens managed to keep quiet, but they couldn’t contain their excitement, their eyes gleaming.

This light was because they had just seen Su Qingcen in person and because the ‘scene’ that was unfolding was exhilarating indeed.

“Shan Jin bro!”

Only, before the netizens could call out, someone else already noticed!

A group of girls who had been wandering around suddenly erupted into a frenzy, jumping as they pointed and screamed at Su Qingcen.

Meng Fan and the netizens were stunned. How the f*ck did they recognize her?!

She’s already wrapped up like this and it took the netizens the entire time of close-up contact to realize. How could these girls know from just one look?

“Su Qingcen! It’s really Su Qingcen!”

“Look, it’s her number one fan, Meng Fan!”

“Ah ah ah ah what!”

As soon as the shouting began, the pedestrians passing by immediately began crowding in.

“Where, where!”

Without the slightest clue of where Su Qingcen was, people started squeezing over.

Soon, they were surrounded by people. All of them had been screaming in excitement at Su Qingcen, who was still wrapped up in her ensemble. With this much attention, the people walking along the street couldn’t help but stop to see.

“I’m not done shopping yet!”

Su Qingcen pouted in dismay. She had no choice though; she could only hope for Meng Fan to help her escape.

“Everyone, stay still and don’t move!”

Seeing the chaos about to ensue and with a concern for safety, Meng Fan cleared his throat and screamed. He then grabbed the speakerphone from the BBQ store’s owner, shouting into it: “Does everyone want a better look at Shan Jin bro? If you do, then remain still. Otherwise, we’ll run and none of you will see her! Shan Jin bro is right here, so if you don’t push, she won’t run. She still wants to eat street food!”

Meng Fan’s voice had a certain magic to it as the crowd did quiet down. Although not everyone was standing still, nobody was shoving anymore, either.
