Besides the three main accounts, there were over twenty smaller accounts that had also posted videos at the same time.
Tapping them open, he saw scenes of a flashy, neon-lit bar, the three campus beauties dressed alluringly, seductive and incredibly enticing.
They struck very tempting poses. The captions were plain, but it was clear there was no heavy use of beauty filters, pure visual impact.
These three stunners were already at the level of celestial beauties. Even though they were all his women now, watching the video of their radiating charm, Luis couldn't help but swallow hard.
"You bastard, what are you doing in the capital?!"
He quickly called his sister-in-law Nancy back. She sounded a bit frustrated as she filled him in.
Since the media pany was established, they had only now gathered enough footage. They calculated they had enough material to start posting.
Deewa had even consulted an auspicious date on the calendar, choosing tonight to officially launch the accounts. This was also because Bubbles' pany had secured investment and latched onto a major media conglomerate.
Their follower count was already approaching the million mark, so they were anxious and determined to launch a counterattack at this moment.
"Business stuff, sis. Why didn't you give me a heads-up about something this important?"
Luis thought to himself that this was an unfair accusation.
At that, Nancy sounded resigned and said, "Alright, just go click follow and like for us for now. We're debugging the livestream equipment right now."
It sounded noisy over there, they were clearly busy. Without another word, she hung up.
Luis opened the group chats. The family group, and the friends group his mother-in-law had set up, everyone was sharing, following, and liking the posts.
And Nancy had even posted the links in their alumni group. This was clearly a declaration of war.
Luis followed all the accounts, carefully liking every short video, menting, and sharing them in his own groups and moments.
This was his first time acting as an internet hype-man, and before he knew it, he was busy until midnight, chain-smoking as he kept at it.
"The livestream is starting... everyone e in and boost the numbers, fill the chat with ments!"
Soon, a new message popped up in the family group with a livestream link.
Luis immediately clicked in. The stream showed a room that looked like a bedroom, nicely decorated, likely a set they had prepared at the office.
"HELLO, everyone! I don't really have any special talents, so let me play some guzheng for you first."
The first to go live was Deewa. She wore a black lace dress that outlined her seductive figure. Despite her naturally flirtatious look, she played the guzheng with the poise of a refined lady.
Luis couldn't really judge the quality of her playing, but he was surprised she even had this talent.
Her performance seemed decent enough. After she finished, she started chatting with the menters, though it was hard to tell how many of them were their own bots.
She talked about cosmetics and other topics, while casually answering some lewd questions from the audience.
They had likely bought promotional boosts, so the viewership kept climbing, soon surpassing a hundred live viewers.
"Please, everyone, click follow! Thank you so much~"
The way Deewa acted all coy and flirtatious would, under normal circumstances, be too much for most men to handle.
But these days, on platforms like TikTok, so many influencers used heavy filters and beauty effects, while relying on softcore content that people were growing tired of the act.
Soon enough, the scripted routine began, the standard cross-room battling gimmicks.
But according to their strategy, they weren't aiming to collect gifts from the start. Their main goal was building popularity.
The first night... seemed a bit lackluster.
Without a second thought, Luis invested ten thousand in promotional boosts for each main account and five thousand for the smaller ones. Now was not the time to be stingy.
After Deewa ended her stream, Luis sent them all messages, wishing them a speedy success.
"Brother-in-law, tomorrow night is my account's turn to go live!"
"Today, Tong'er gained ten thousand followers, better than we expected."
"Make sure you free up time to e support me tomorrow. At the very least, be a placeholder in my stream and chat with me a bit."
"She's already hit ten thousand followers. I can't afford to fall behind her."
His sister-in-law's proud remarks left Luis both amused and exasperated. The three of them were running the pany together, seemingly inseparable, yet each was proud and secretly peting with the others.
The money Luis spent on them was absolutely evenly distributed, without the slightest favoritism, otherwise, the only one who would end up screwed would be himself.
Chloe seemed to be the most laid-back of the three, but she also sent a similar message. It seemed that no woman was truly above such concerns.
Especially when beautiful women gathered together, they were natural rivals to each other. Any so-called harmony was only superficial.
He agreed to all of them one by one, chatted with the others for a while, and finally yawned his way to sleep.
The next morning, Luis woke up early. He jogged a couple of laps around the courtyard. Sebastian Ye had already gotten up and was ready by seven.
When he saw Luis was also awake, he looked surprised for a moment, then gave a warm smile and said, "Up so early? Exercising is a good habit. Make sure you keep it up, you hear?"
"Yes, Dad. I'm hungry too. Let's go get some breakfast first."
"Alright, alright. We drank quite a bit last night, so let's have something light this morning."
The driver Yong arrived early. They got in the car and went to a small, unassuming shop that looked like it had been around for many years.
"One steamer of beef soup dumplings, one steamer of beef siu mai, and two thin pancakes!!!"
"A portion of spiced beef, a portion of shredded dried tofu salad, and a portion of chicken gizzards with yellow mustard..."
Sebastian Ye was very down-to-earth, familiar with the place, and ordered without even looking at the menu.
The flavors were indeed excellent. After they finished eating, they dropped Sebastian Ye off at his destination. As he got out of the car, he instructed, "Yong, take Luis to pick up the car first."
"Have dinner with me tonight, then you can head over to your sister Elara's place. She's busy with work and probably won't be done until late."
Yong took Luis to a repair shop. After inspecting the vehicle, he said, "Luis, the listening devices and GPS trackers in the car have been removed, but you still need to stay alert."
"Got it. Thanks, Brother Yong!!!"
After Yong left, Luis familiarized himself with the car's performance. It was a Nissan that handled well and was well-maintained.
He had the whole day ahead of him and already had plans. He drove to the university town and picked up Maria for a date that lasted all day, which made her absolutely delighted.
As evening fell, she was reluctant to see him go, but she was currently on the injured list, any excessive intimacy would only bring her disfort.
While driving, a friend request suddenly popped up.
The nickname on the request was simply "Ye", clear and concise, exuding a sense of efficiency. The gender was female, and there was no doubt it was Elara Ye.
Luis quickly accepted. Elara immediately sent a message: "Dear little brother, I have to work overtime tonight, so I can't join you and Third Uncle for dinner."
"Later, I'll treat you to a late-night snack."
"Also, I've had the housekeeper prepare a new set of bedding. The room is all ready for you."
"See you tonight!!"
The thought of living with this alluring, Guan Xiumei-like seductive woman for a week made Luis perk up immediately, a wicked grin spreading across his face.
That evening, Sebastian Ye had originally planned to have dinner together. The old man now seemed quite keen on these so-called father-son bonding sessions.
He was currently stationed in the Northeast as a regional governor. Even though this province was the Sebastian family's territory, he never overstepped and carefully maintained good relationships while he was there.
But his time back was limited, and he had far too much to attend to.
He hadn't eaten dinner at all and waited until nine in the evening before finishing his work. By the time he got back to the city, it was already ten o'clock.
