Chapter 186: 153. Conquering Fairy Miao

November 1st, in Jiangcheng City, the sun was bright and the weather clear.

Hanou Riverfront welcomed three days of grand festivity.

On this day, the Douyu Carnival kicked off at the Hanou Riverfront Park in Jiangcheng.

The three-day extravagance included amusements, esports, gaming, celebrities, entertainment, technology, culinary delights, and anime—all representing the eight major highlights.

Over a thousand streamers, esports gods, anime celebrities, and international stars made their appearances one after another.

This Douyu Carnival was the largest cultural event in Jiangcheng and the Central Region in nearly a decade.

Furthermore, the entire carnival was live-streamed on the official Douyu channel.

According to Douyu, the livestream attracted tens of millions of viewers online from the start today.

"Qige! That’s Zhang Qige!"

"Wow, Timo is here too; she’s really 5 feet tall!"

"Fairy Miao, my Miao Miao, sob sob sob, Fairy Miao is too beautiful offline!"

Not only was the chat room flooded with bullet comments, but offline fans were even more crazed.

Apart from the loyal fans from Jiangcheng, being situated at the hub of nine provinces, fans from neighboring cities like Star City, Chang City, and He City came in droves by high-speed train, taking the opportunity to tour around the city.

Such "dedicated fans" were not few.

Tens of thousands of netizens from all over the country thronged Jiangcheng to join in this revelry at the Hanou Riverfront.

As some of the top and most popular streamers on the Douyu platform, Chen Yifa, Timo, and Fairy Miao were exceptional in talent and striking in looks.

Crowds swamped them everywhere they went; security and fans surrounded them, forcing them to sprint to break free.

"My goodness, Fairy Miao, your uniform today looks so nice! Could you give me an autograph?"

Lin Wenjing strained to push through the crowd, eyes locked steadfastly on Mou Keyan, holding a shirt in hand, eyes filled with surprise and astonishment.

Unexpectedly, Fairy Miao, dressed in a JK uniform, glanced over and scrutinized Lin Wenjing’s similar outfit before genuinely pausing in her tracks.

"Sure, where would you like me to sign?"

"Here, here, on the shirt!"

Lin Wenjing was overjoyed, with a smile that couldn’t close.

She was a mid-tier fan of Fairy Miao’s livestream room and not only watched regularly but also gifted items every few days.

Besides that, she was also a "three-bucket girl."

Lin Wenjing wore Lolita dresses from around the age of 15 and fell for JK uniforms in university.

Having been immersed for over two years, Lin Wenjing owned forty to fifty sets of JK uniforms and was a popular influencer on Weibo with nearly ten thousand followers.

She often shared her JK uniform outfits online and made a resolution to only wear these outfits daily.

When Lin Wenjing wore JK uniforms, these clothes were still a very niche style in her country, and it was unlikely for her to see others wearing the same when she went out, which made it quite unique.

However, today seemed different.

When her favorite streamer collided with her passion, Lin Wenjing was eighty percent curious and hundred percent thrilled.

As a big name in the industry, she could tell at a glance.

The JK uniform dress Fairy Miao wore had a unique design.

It wasn’t like the uniforms from other shops—Fairy Miao’s dress featured many dense, thin lines, a new style Lin Wenjing had never seen before.

"Miao Miao, is the piece you’re wearing from a school supplier, or is it Conomi?"

After staring for over ten seconds and ensuring it was a style she hadn’t seen, Lin Wenjing couldn’t help but ask.

Genuine JK uniforms could be divided into Japanese and domestically made.

Among these, Japanese uniforms were divided further into those supplied by schools and those that weren’t.

School-supplied meant uniforms supplied for Japanese high schools, while non-school supplied were those introduced by Japanese commercial brands, with Conomi, Eastboy, KURI-ORI being some famous JK uniform brands.

However, Japanese school-supplied uniforms generally required a student ID to purchase, and it was difficult to buy these secondhand uniforms from Japan in her own country.

The prices of brands like Conomi and KURI-ORI were relatively high, and even more so when purchased through importers.

Even influencer Lin Wenjing couldn’t guarantee she recognized all at a glance or matched them one-to-one.

"Not at all, this one I’m wearing is from a domestic brand."

In the crowd, Mou Keyan smiled and raised her voice, waving her hand.

"Which store? Can you tell me?"

Lin Wenjing paused, suddenly intrigued.

Domestic?

When did such a strong brand appear domestically?

This particular uniform, whether in terms of color matching, craftsmanship, or design—not to mention the compliments softly uttered by onlookers—was stunning and had all the makings of a best-seller.

In fact, a skirt that isn’t just appreciated by insiders is more likely to become a hit.

Girls who had been in the JK scene for a while preferred the school-supplied look as it made them feel like real students of Neon High School.

Skirts that felt school-supplied usually had subdued colors with low saturation, with moss green and navy being typical school-supplied colors.

Outsiders, however, were easily attracted to pink, sky blue, and bright yellow plaid skirts—colors that insiders didn’t deem school-supplied enough, but might attract better sales.

Meanwhile, the uniform Mou Keyan wore straddled a delicate balance between the two preferences.

Fairy Miao was undeniably a stunner in the dance section, and in her JK uniform, she seemed to transform, radiating a different kind of beauty.

Less sharp, more youthful vitality.

"Search for Tanhua Customization on Taobao~ hit ’Add to Favorites’ first, it will be available for pre-order soon."

With her final words, Mou Keyan smiled and straightened the feather bow tie on her chest, continuing toward the stage.

Beneath the flying hem, her vibrant figure receded.

Only then did Lin Wenjing snap back to reality, hastily stowing her signed shirt into her bag and raising her phone to take several quick photos of Mou Keyan.

She analyzed closely.

The color of this [Tanhua Customization] dress is somewhat close to that of a blue ballpoint pen, but on closer inspection, it shifts to a light yellow, with a neutral grey tone.

Under the sunlight, it had a youthful, healing vibe, bright yet clean.

In fact, the original design of [Tanhua Customization] was based on a milky white background with deep blue as the main accent color.

The pleats on the dress were extremely sharp, almost eliminating any concern about them puffing out. The clear positioning lines and the checkered pattern gave it a gentle feel, which is why it could be instantly recognized by the Grass Planting Princess.

Definitely a popular pre-order item.

[@Grass Planting Princess Wen Wen, how was the Carnival today? Were there many wearing JK uniforms?]

The JK uniform’s Grass Planting Princess community wasn’t very large.

Once the fan count reached a certain limit, everyone generally knew each other well, sharing a QQ group as a small community.

Jiang City had a particularly strong anime subculture.

Lin Wenjing was a local from Jiang City, and she never missed events like comic conventions and cosplays. Her attendance at the Douyu Carnival today also attracted much envy and attention from her group mates.

[How about this one? Guess which store it’s from?]

She didn’t hesitate and immediately sent the photos she just took into the group.

[The craftsmanship and style suggest it’s school supplied.]

[It’s not school-supplied, I haven’t seen this style at Neon High School; feels like a new release from a Japanese brand.]

A Grass Planting Princess who studied in Neon sent a shocked emoji, then replied.

[Can’t guess, reveal the answer soon!]

[+1!]

[+1!]

Members of the group began to comment "+1", and as Lin Wenjing saw that the suspense was sufficiently built up, she revealed the answer.

[It’s domestically produced! It’s called Tanhua Customization, and it’s said to open for pre-orders this week.]

The chat suddenly became lively, with many usually silent bigwigs starting to speak.

[OMG! Really?]

[Japanese brands are so expensive, and others in the industry always imitate; it’s about time we had a domestic brand to set them straight!]

[Awesome, I searched on Taobao and actually found this store, will definitely support it when it opens]

[+1!]

...

While browsing on her phone and moving with the crowd, Lin Wenjing finally reached the central area of the Carnival, near the stage.

"About half a month ago, we started preparing for this Carnival!"

This event was being streamed live with many cameras and media present, including journalists.

Xiao Tie, a freshman from Star City University of Technology, was being interviewed by Jiang City TV.

He had arrived in Jiang City two days earlier and was one of Fairy Miao’s high-tier fans.

Thus, he was given a T-shirt printed with the live stream’s name and the Golden Stone logo, distributing small gifts to the onlookers who followed the stream.

These gifts were sponsored by Golden Stone Media.

Fans of different streams used various methods to support their favorite streamers, competitively shining in their own ways.

At the Douyu Carnival, popular streamers were surrounded by security and fan clubs, their presence nothing less than that of celebrities.

Smaller streamers started broadcasting right on the streets, singing, dancing, and gifting to gain followers.

Many other streamers roamed around while streaming, occasionally moving to the central area to take photos with the big-name influencers.

Although they were just chatting with big streamers, in reality, they needed to do their homework too.

21-year-old Xiao Ming, a senior student in Jiang City and a streaming novice for half a year.

Because she mainly streamed comic conventions and gaming, today, she spent three hours dressing up as Sailor Moon, interacting live with over 200 loyal fans on site.

[We want to see Fairy Miao, can you talk to Fairy Miao for a bit?]

Similar messages appeared in the streamers’ chat whenever Fairy Miao appeared on camera.

"She’s a big streamer and about to go on stage to dance, I have social anxiety... never mind."

But her anxiety was due to not being famous enough; others might not necessarily feel the same.

Mou Keyan’s tall figure was soon joined by several equally famous big streamers.

Top-level streamers, naturally strong in social skills, jested and supported each other as if old friends.

"I knew Fairy Miao was hailed as a Dance Enchantress and guessed she’d be pretty, but never did I imagine, Miao Miao, you’re actually this gorgeous in person."

Timo hooked arms with Mou Keyan, tilting his head up with a beaming smile, making himself at home with a compliment.

She had spent nearly two to three hours today changing clothes and putting on makeup, receiving endless compliments along the way.

But Timo had to admit.

Fairy Miao, undeniably, was the most eye-catching streamer at this Carnival.
