Performance Fee

Under the gaze of all the customers, Jay went down the stage and walked towards the restaurant owner. 

"Boss, how was it? Was my performance enough?"

Laughing heartily, the owner patted Jay's shoulder and said, "Hahahaha! Jay, your performance was great! It wasn't just 'enough', it was more than enough!"

"Have you seen them? They liked your performance! I am so glad that I let you step up and perform."

The wide smile on the owner's face couldn't be erased as he looked at Jay.

Hearing the words from the owner, Jay also smiled, feeling happy inside him. 

This is the first time he did something like this. Performing in front of many people. 

As an individual who lacks talent in almost every artistic aspect, performance is a thing for Jay in the past.

However, in just one day, his life made a huge turn. 

At this moment, Jay can't help but feel more grateful to the Cube for appearing in his life. 

…

After chatting with Jay for a while, the owner took out his wallet and pulled out two blue bills. 

"Here, take it."

Jay looked at those two bills but didn't take it.

He looked up to the owner with some confusion and asked, "Isn't that too much, boss?"

Based on what he knows, the pay for performers is around 500 to 1000 pesos, depending on their popularity. 

Now, in the owner's hand are two 1,000 pesos bills. 

For someone unknown like Jay, it was too much for a fee.

Hearing his words, the owner smiled and said, "Take it. You deserve it. If you didn't step forward and take the stage, it might affect the restaurant's reputation."

"Plus, I feel like your performance actually deserves more than this 2 thousand. That's why don't decline."

He grabbed Jay's hand and stuffed the two bills in his hands. 

"Anyway, I'll go now. I still have a few things to do."

Saying that, the owner turned around and headed to the manager's office. 

Watching the owner's back, Jay bowed his head and looked at the two bills in his hand, not knowing what to say. 

'I… I really have a great boss.' He silently thought. 

… 

Jay ate free lunch in the restaurant, which is a company benefit for employees in Anything Grilled. 

After he's done, Jay silently leaves the restaurant and heads back to his apartment.

When he arrived home, only then did Jay look at his phone.

From start to finish, the live stream was open and playing. 

That's why when Jay finally paid attention to the live, the viewers immediately started complaining. 

[Host, you're finally here!]

[Yeah, yeah, we all thought you already forgot that you're streaming.]

[Tsk tsk, what if he really forgot? Maybe we could have seen something nice… hehehe!]

[Aww, too bad. The host s handsome, it would have been a great sight. Wahahaha!]

[That would have been great.]

[+2]

… 

[+69]

Seeing the other viewer's thoughts heading the wrong direction, some viewers that Jay is familiar with suddenly appeared. 

[YourBiBi: You guys, how could you think of something dirty like that!]

[BabaViewer111: That's right, you all better keep your thoughts straight!]

Seeing all the interaction in his live room, Jay can't help but pause. 

Looking at the number of viewers, he can't help but be surprised!

381 viewers! 

Jay didn't expect that his viewers would actually reach this number! 

For a while, Jay was speechless with emotions. 

But thinking that he's still live, he immediately gathered his emotions and smiled at the camera. 

"Hey, everyone! Sorry, I wasn't able to pay attention to you all."

"Wait a second, I'll transfer the live to my computer."

Jay sat down in front of the computer and started setting up the live. 

In just a few short minutes, the live was transferred to the computer. 

Looking at it, Jay waved his hands, "Hi again, everyone. So, thank you all for being here."

"Did you all listen to my performance earlier?"

At his question, comments immediately flooded the screen. 

[Yesss! You look so great earlier!]

[Not just his looks, the host's voice is actually also very lovely!]

[Ahh~ I know what you mean, girl. I feel like I'll get pregnant with his voice!!]

[Hahaha, we all liked your singing, host!]

… 

Most of the comments obviously came from girls in the live room. 

Actually, almost all the viewers in the live room are actually girls at this moment! 

Maybe it's because of Jay's looks, inevitably attracting female viewers. 

Just as Jay was reading the comments, he saw a comment that made him smile. 

[BabaViewer111: Host, you must have been fooling me last night, right?]

[BabaViewer111: You clearly have a great voice and you also know how to singing. How could you sing like a howling dog for me last night! :sademote:]

Staring at BabaViewer111's comment, Jay wanted to say 'No, I wasn't fooling you. That's really just my singing level before you arrived at my live stream.'

However, he clearly can't say that to them. 

So, he chuckled and said, "Sorry, sorry. I wasn't playing with you. I was just… practicing, yeah, that was it!"

… 

Inside a room in Angeles City, Kyla rolled her eyes after hearing Jay's words. 

"Tsk, it's so obvious in your face that you just came up with that reason on the spot. This man is just so… tsk!"

Even though her words and gestures show dissatisfaction, her lips can't help but form a smile for some reason.

She placed her hands on her keyboard and started typing. 

Click!

[BabaViewer111: Whatever you say. I feel like you're just fooling me anyway. You must sing for me again this time!]

[BabaViewer111: Properly, sing properly this time!]

Jay smiled after reading the request and said, "Okay, okay. I hope you will forgive me then."

"For that, I will sing for you again this time."

At his words, all the viewers in his live immediately cheered. 

[Yeyy! Go, host!]

[Let us listen to your voice again, host!]

[We are about to be blessed with the host's voice again, girls. Prepare yourself!]

[Prepare yourself! +1]

[Prepare yourself! +2]

[Prepare yourself! +8]

[Prepare yourself! +36]

[YourBiBi: Go, Jayyy!]
