Jiang Tian, a renowned渣女 (scorned woman/player) in her lifetime with countless boyfriends, was recruited by the Main God after her death to become an invincible host for the Female Lead group.<...
Xie Zilang instantly snapped out of his pessimism.
He thought he understood Jiang Tian's temperament, but he was still flustered by her surprising remarks and didn't know how to react.
At this moment, her presence became incredibly noticeable.
Xie Zilang almost stiffly removed Jiang Tian's hand from his neck.
"...No need, thank you."
Jiang Tian scoffed, "I know, you're an innocent young man, I shouldn't have laid a hand on you. Now that you're not depressed anymore, go and do my laundry."
Xie Zilang responded softly, "Okay."
After Jiang Tian interfered, he was indeed no longer sad.
He needs to wash the clothes quickly, otherwise it would be his dereliction of duty if Jiang Tian couldn't wear them when she wanted to.
Xie Zilang has always been very dedicated to his work. He was taught from a young age not to affect others or cause them trouble. He believed that failing to do a good job was a failure as a person.
Jiang Tian has some clothes that can't be washed in a washing machine and can only be hand-washed.
He wasn't very good at washing clothes before, and he ruined a few pieces of clothing, but Jiang Tian didn't say anything.
But after spending several days together, and with so many videos available online to learn from, he gradually learned it himself.
He was washing clothes in the bathroom when he heard Jiang Tian talking on the phone.
The person who called Jiang Tian was Chu Nanfeng.
Chu Nanfeng never expected that Jiang Tian, after being exposed, would still be able to shamelessly continue to operate in the livestreaming circle.
So after he finished his broadcast, he called Jiang Tian.
"It seems your mindset has improved a lot over the years."
Chu Nanfeng's tone was teasing.
While fiddling with another phone, Jiang Tian casually said, "If you have something to say, say it; if not, hang up. Trying to get close to me won't work."
Chu Nanfeng was momentarily speechless, but the smile on his lips did not fade: "I called to tell you that if you need more popularity in the future, you can take me too. I'll decline for a moment and then take over."
"Forget it, your big spenders can't handle it all, they're not my target audience. You don't need to worry about me, just focus on being a great streamer."
Chu Nanfeng paused for a moment: "Let's have a meal sometime, it's been a long time since we got together."
"I'm not eating, I'm hanging up."
Jiang Tian hung up the phone and saw Xie Zilang, who was washing clothes with the door open, silently watching her.
"What, are you curious about who called me?"
Jiang Tian asked a question.
Xie Zilang nodded and organized his thoughts: "I think you seem to know Chu Nanfeng. His name is on the account you gave me."
"We do know each other. Want to know how we met?"
Xie Zilang hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
Chu Nanfeng is a top streamer, while Jiang Tian is virtually unknown; the two seem to have no connection whatsoever.
"Don't be fooled by how well Chu Nanfeng is doing now. He used to be worse off than you. At least you're not in debt, but he's drowning in debt. He said he was saving up for his sister's college tuition or something, but I don't know."
“Back then, I hadn’t been in the workforce for long and was quite kind-hearted. I saw that he was good-looking, so I recommended that he do live streaming. He didn’t earn much money in the first few years; he used it all to pay off debts. In recent years, his appearance has probably started to conform to popular aesthetics, so he has gradually become more successful.”
"Well, I'd say I'm half his benefactor, but we're even now. I treated him to a few meals and introduced him to the world of livestreaming. Later, he used one of my accounts to spend hundreds of thousands of yuan on me."
Jiang Tian spoke quite frankly.
Xie Zilang didn't know why, but he felt a tightness in his chest.
"Alright, stop watching and continue washing your clothes. Chu Nanfeng and I can only be strangers for now, understand? Even a big streamer needs to protect their reputation."
"But the fact that he called you means he doesn't intend to treat you like a stranger."
Xie Zilang said quietly.
Chu Nanfeng accepting Jiang Tian's challenge was already a way of taking care of her.
"Seriously, why does your voice sound so jealous? You brat, don't tell me you're interested in me. If you do that, I'll definitely fire you. Our relationship can only be clean and innocent, you understand?"
