Chapter 78: Residency
The late night is a good time to contemplate life. Yu Zhanrong counted the few coins in his wallet and sighed.
The audition was okay, the current equipment could still handle it, but for a formal voice acting job, his original live streaming equipment wouldn’t be sufficient, and the equipment required for recording was also different.
Not enough funds is a big problem.
He had made some money from live streaming during this period, but his monthly expenses were not small, and his live streams were relatively simple, so he didn’t have that many fans.
The new equipment was quite expensive, and it seemed like there was a significant funding gap.
Should he find a part-time job?
He wondered if it was still possible.
Yu Zhanrong lay in bed thinking about what part-time jobs he could do, feeling a bit of a headache. Earning money was really not easy.
He suddenly began to understand a little of his dad’s hard work, leaving early and returning late every day.
Old Yu wasn’t easy either, he should try to make him less angry in the future.
Also, after passing the audition, he would have to live in the apartment, so he had to complete the procedures first.
In order to buy better equipment, Yu Zhanrong specifically consulted Qin Yuan, looked at a lot of recording equipment based on his advice, and once again lamented that his wallet wasn’t fat enough.

Dorm 411
“Yuzu, Yuzu, come to my side, brother will protect you and carry you to victory.” Fang Jingtong held his phone, looking lazy and dissolute, spouting a lot of flirty nonsense.
Song Baiyan listened expressionlessly for a while, and glanced at him in surprise.
The person on the other side seemed to be shocked by his words, and after a short silence, an angry voice of scolding came.
“Yue~ Fang Jingtong, who the hell are you trying to disgust? Get out!”
Song Baiyan remembered this voice, it seemed to be Yu Zhanrong’s roommate, what’s-his-name, Yang You.
When did these two become so familiar? And seeing Fang Jingtong looking comfortable after being scolded, wasn’t this development a bit strange?
Thinking so, he also asked.
Guo Xingcheng immediately raised his hand, excitedly saying, “I know, I know.”
Since the last incident of hitting someone and sending medicine, Fang Jingtong had run into Yang You a few times, but he didn’t expect Yang You to dislike him so much that he completely ignored him.
Fang Jingtong didn’t believe in failure, were there still people he couldn’t handle? The more frustrated he was, the more courageous he became, and he really found the right method.
Once, he accidentally met him in a game, and Fang Jingtong discovered that Yang You was actually an internet addict, typically someone who was bad at the game but loved to play, so he schemingly carried Yang You to play.
Yang You tasted the sweetness of winning the game for the first time, and started to ask Fang Jingtong to play games often, and then it became like this.
Song Baiyan watched Fang Jingtong teasing people with a smile, and remembering that he had a little boyfriend, he asked him, “Did you break up again?”
Fang Jingtong didn’t even lift his head: “Break up with who?”
“Your voice acting little boyfriend?”
“We broke up a long time ago, I’m a golden bachelor now.” Fang Jingtong looked smug.
“Scumbag!”
“Scumbag!”
Fang Jingtong didn’t care, “You don’t understand, each of my relationships is based on mutual needs, I never owe emotional debts, and breakups are always amicable.”
Dong Qi said angrily, “You just want to give every baby a home.”
“Nonono, that’s not true, I never bring them home, hotels are great.”
“Scumbag!”
Song Baiyan looked at him with an attitude of casually dating, and couldn’t help but remind him, “Jingtong, if you really like someone, pursue them properly, don’t be a player.”
With his attitude towards relationships, he would probably have a hard time if he met someone he really liked.
“You mean little Yuzu? It’s not like that, he’s just fun to tease, he has so many little expressions, he’s quite cute,” Fang Jingtong didn’t take it seriously.
He just thought Yang You was quite cute, he didn’t think much of it, besides, he had always been someone who passed through the flowers without a petal sticking to him.
Seeing that Fang Jingtong didn’t take it seriously, Song Baiyan didn’t say anything more, put away his laptop, and prepared to go back to the apartment for a couple of days.
“Hey, where are you going? Don’t forget Liang Yu’s gathering tonight.”
Liang Yu had opened a new bar, and it was said that he had spent a lot of effort on the decoration, and he invited everyone to drink and support him.
“I know.”
“By the way, he’s been acting crazy lately, constantly asking me which streamer you’re following, you better keep it a secret.”
Song Baiyan’s movements paused slightly, his eyebrows furrowing: “Why is he asking about this?”
“Who knows, probably gossiping, who told you to have so little gossip?” Fang Jingtong curled his lips and continued to play games with his little Yuzu.
Tsk tsk, he’s really bad.
In the evening, a few people arrived at Liang Yu’s newly opened bar together. The environment outside wasn’t great, but the interior decoration was surprisingly simple and elegant.
The patterns on the walls were very design-oriented, and the lighting was soft and dim, shrouded in a thin mist, adding a touch of mystery.
Just opened, there were quite a few people, it seemed to be quite popular.
“Liang Yu, you’ve done a good job, the business is good.”
“I don’t need you to tell me, I spent more than three months carefully creating it.” Liang Yu sat in the booth with his legs crossed, smug, but his eyes followed Song Baiyan, and seeing his approving gaze, his smile deepened.
“My main target audience is young people, mostly college students, it’s not some messy place.”
“Didn’t I hear there’s a resident singer? Where is he?” Someone saw a stage in the center of the hall, and asked because there was no one on it now.
“What’s the rush, the person hasn’t arrived yet, drink, drink.” Liang Yu handed Song Baiyan a glass of wine, “What have you been busy with lately? I haven’t seen you come out to play.”
Song Baiyan took it, his eyes were light: “It’s nothing, I’m working on a small project with a friend, I’ve been busy for a few days.”
“Oh~~~” Liang Yu deliberately dragged out the ending, staring at Song Baiyan’s eyes: “I thought you were lost in the gentle embrace of some streamer?”
This sounded strangely sour, and Fang Jingtong subconsciously glanced at Song Baiyan. Sure enough, although Song Baiyan didn’t speak, he frowned, and his expression carried a bit of impatience.
Someone gently tugged at Liang Yu, telling him to restrain himself a little.
Liang Yu was unwilling to let this question go, he stared straight at Song Baiyan, and the atmosphere between the two gradually became tense.
Fang Jingtong saw that the atmosphere was getting more and more wrong, and no one dared to speak, so he quickly came out to smooth things over.
“What streamer? I haven’t seen Song Baiyan watching any lately.” He nudged Song Baiyan with his elbow and winked at him, “Right?”
Fang Jingtong understood Song Baiyan’s thoughts very well, especially after knowing that the little streamer and Yu Zhanrong were the same person, Song Baiyan had been keeping a close eye on him.
Moreover, Liang Yu was the youngest of their group after all, and it was his treat today, so it wouldn’t hurt to let him have his way.
Song Baiyan didn’t want to make the atmosphere too stiff either, so he followed Fang Jingtong’s words and “hmmed” once.
Little Fish hadn’t streamed for several days, so it wasn’t exactly a lie.
Almost the second Song Baiyan nodded, Liang Yu’s expression visibly improved, and he said to Song Baiyan with a smile, “Brother, I’m just curious, don’t be mad at me.”
“I won’t be.”
Seeing this situation, everyone around breathed a sigh of relief. Neither of these two could be offended. The confrontation just now was too scary.
Just then, a waiter walked up to Liang Yu and whispered a few words in his ear. Liang Yu nodded slightly and waved his hand lightly to the waiter.
Afterwards, Liang Yu smiled and turned his gaze to the crowd, slowly saying, “The resident singer you’ve all been waiting for is here, trust me, it will definitely be amazing!”
