The Comeback of the Cannon-Fodder Supporting Actress

Chapter 880: Chapter 858: Interstellar Superstar 28

After ending the call with Li Wanwan, Anning called Cui Zhengxun.

Cui Zhengxun has already quit his job and is staying at home to cultivate himself.

He has long thought it through that when Anning goes out to work, he will follow her and serve as her assistant, handling some work-related matters for her.

As for the living expenses at home, Cui Zhengxun and Li Wanwan have saved enough money over the years, which is completely sufficient for living.

Moreover, Cui Anlin and Cui Anning have already been making money, and their earnings are enough to cover their own expenses without needing to ask their parents for money. Sometimes, Anning even buys things for Cui Zhengxun and Li Wanwan.

Cui Zhengxun simply thought of it as retiring early.

Upon receiving Anning’s call, Cui Zhengxun smiled: ”Ningning, what’s up? Missing home?”

”Yes.”

Smiling, Anning nodded: ”I miss Dad. I’ll be back in a few days. Dad, I want you to help me find something.”

”What is it?”

Cui Zhengxun asked quickly: ”Send the information to me. I will definitely find the best for you.”

Anning sent some materials to Cui Zhengxun’s main computer: ”I want to make some musical instruments. These are the main materials needed, Dad, please find the best quality for me.”

After receiving the information, Cui Zhengxun looked it over and memorized it: ”Alright, leave it to Dad.”

After ending the call, Cui Zhengxun immediately messaged some friends asking them to help find the materials.

Cui Zhengxun has many friends, and their networks are especially extensive. Once he started, the speed of finding things was exceptionally fast.

In the interstellar era, everything is fast; even if these things need to be found on other planets, they can be transported within just a day or two.

Anning stayed at the Xiao Family for another two days, and everything she needed was delivered.

Anning then bid farewell to Mrs. Xiao and Xiao Mei.

Mrs. Xiao and Xiao Mei were quite reluctant to let her go.

Especially Xiao Mei, she got along very well with Anning in those days, often chatting for most of the day.

She really liked Anning a lot, and was quite sad about her leaving.

”Sister Ning, can’t you stay for two more days?”

Smiling, Anning patted Xiao Mei’s head: ”I have some matters to attend to back home. Be good, I’ll come back in a few days.”

She also spoke to Mrs. Xiao: ”Marshal Xiao is stable now and should be fine for a few days. I’ll come back in a few days.”

Although Mrs. Xiao was reluctant, she understood that Anning was a guest and not a member of the Xiao Family. Certainly, they couldn’t prevent her from returning home.

”Alright, give my regards to your parents. They are welcome to visit anytime, and you should come by often if you have the time.”

Mrs. Xiao and Xiao Mei together saw Anning off.

Cui Zhengxun sent a spacecraft to pick Anning up.

Anning boarded the spacecraft to go home.

The Cui family’s mansion wasn’t far from the Xiao family’s. It was in the same district, so Anning reached home soon after.

Once home, she didn’t even bother to freshen up or change clothes and went directly to the material room.

The room was already filled with various materials that she had asked Cui Zhengxun to find for her, such as parasol wood for making lutes, bamboo for making flutes, and red spider silk for making strings.

After entering, Anning closed the door and started creating.

She not only created but also started a livestream.

Anning did not hide; she boldly initiated the livestream.

She is very famous now, and as soon as the livestream started, countless fans flooded in. Within minutes, the livestream room was full of people.

The platform immediately expanded Anning’s livestream room and pinned it on the Star Network for repeated broadcasts.

With this move, over a billion viewers instantly crowded into Anning’s livestream room.

Sitting in the material room, Anning smiled and held parasol wood and some tools: ”Hello everyone, it’s been a while.”

Immediately, fans greeted Anning.

”Sister Ning, what have you been up to these days? We really miss you.”

”Sister Ning is awesome, what’s she going to do?”

”Sister Ning, why did you exit the game early?”

Questions flashed across the comment section one after another.

Soon after, fireworks sparkled on the screen, and several starships flew across it.

Seeing this, Anning laughed.

These were starships rewarded by Chu Ming.

After the reward, his name was pinned at the top among the fans in the livestream room.

Chu Ming quickly messaged Anning: ”Sister Ning, I couldn’t find you these past few days. I also don’t have your contact info. Can I have it, please?”

Anning privately messaged Chu Ming her contact information.

After Chu Ming’s reward, Ma Fendou, Ning Kexin, and He Gang each rewarded a dozen or so starships.

Anning’s livestream room became even livelier.

Anning replied one by one and gave them her contact info, then she talked to the fans.

”I’ve read some books excavated from the Mother Star and have always been interested in Huaxia’s ancient musical instruments. Now that I finally gathered the materials, I want to make an instrument. Can anyone guess what I’m going to make?”

As she spoke, her hands never stopped, starting to make the panel.

Anning crafted with great attention to detail, her fingers deftly moving. What seemed to be the repetitive act of carving the panel was turned into something beautiful by her, leaving the fans in the livestream room unfazed by any tedium.

Soon, the lute’s panel took shape in her hands.

”What is this?”

”Does any history major know what this is?”

”I just wonder if there’s anything Sister Ning can’t do?”

”With unbelievably high spiritual power, outstanding computer skills, mastering martial arts, medicine, robot-making, skilled with all sorts of tools, excellent singing, superb acting, can dance, play musical instruments, and now makes them too. Sister Ning is truly omnipotent.”

”Next to Sister Ning, I, who thought I had some abilities, feel utterly defeated.”

”Defeated as well.”

”Sister Ning, what on earth is it?”

Looking at the comments section, Anning laughed: ”Any history buffs should be able to recognize it by now; it’s an ancient musical instrument, the lute.”

”Oh my god, it’s a lute!”

There were history majors in the livestream room, and once they heard Anning say it was a lute, they couldn’t help but exclaim.

”Expert, tell us more about the lute.”

Many fans had little knowledge of history and knew next to nothing about these ancient instruments from the Mother Star.

The history major then began to give a brief introduction, not only about the lute but also other ancient instruments.

The fans were quite interested, constantly messaging Anning: ”Sister Ning, we want to hear the lute played.”

The history major also asked Anning: ”Sister Ning, do you know how to play the lute? Ever since I read some texts, especially after reading ’The Song of the Lute,’ I’ve had a keen interest in lute music. If you can play, could you perform a piece once it’s made?”

”Please play.”

”Please play.”

The comments flooded with requests for Anning to play a piece.

Anning smiled: ”Of course, I plan to livestream regularly from now on. Once the instrument is made, I’ll play all sorts of musical instruments for everyone. I’ll also make tutorial videos for those who want to learn.”

As soon as she said those words, the screen was filled with various gifts, obscuring her face.

There were starships, spaceships, and many other flying crafts continuously flying by.

Aside from the ships and crafts, there were also endless bouquets.

Some fans rewarded 1,314 bouquets, some 520 stars.

The wave of rewards was so overwhelming that it took several minutes before the screen cleared back to show her face.
