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.<...
Shen Yanting hesitated for a moment and did not respond immediately.
He knew the livestreaming industry was chaotic. Jiang Tian had been in this industry for so many years and had been a kept woman for so long. To be honest, he didn't believe that Jiang Tian could survive in a place like this, where all sorts of people gather, without ever getting involved in anything between men and women.
However, angering Jiang Tian was not worth the risk.
He needed to find someone to act in, and she was the perfect candidate.
He wouldn't be so at ease with anyone else, but Jiang Tian is different. Every time he asks her to do something, she completes it perfectly.
Having chosen a candidate, Shen Yanting was unwilling to give up on Jiang Tian anytime soon.
He changed the subject: "I'll give you 30 million after it's done."
He added ten million directly.
Thirty million would be enough for Jiang Tian to buy a new house; he remembered that this woman still lived in the old residential building.
"Boss Shen hasn't changed after all; you've tacitly agreed."
Jiang Tian's voice was still pleasant, but it carried a hint of coldness.
Shen Yanting frowned again, his tone lowered: "Jiang Tian, I'm not here to make you worry about whether I've changed, but to make a deal with you. Are you satisfied with the compensation I've discussed?"
"Not satisfied, want me to come out of retirement? Three hundred million would be more like it."
Shen Yanting: "Saying hurtful things to me won't work."
“Alright,” Jiang Tian said, her tone slightly impatient, “then I’ll just get straight to the point.”
“I earn a lot of money as a streamer and live a good life. There’s no need for me to take risks for 30 million. If you ask me to impersonate someone and get caught on camera, then I’ll have no way to explain myself.”
"Boss Shen thinks I'm just a small-time streamer, but my fans like me, and I can't let them down. You know, I've always been starved for love."
Shen Yanting never expected that when he talked to Jiang Tian about interests, Jiang Tian would talk to him about feelings.
He was about to try to persuade her again when Jiang Tian yawned and said, "Don't just stand there. Turn on the water heater for me. I'm going to take a shower later."
She wasn't saying this to Shen Yanting, but to Xie Zilang beside her.
Xie Zilang had been on edge ever since Shen Yanting called, and he only felt relieved when Jiang Tian refused.
He asked, "Do you need to wash your clothes? If so, you should change them as soon as possible."
“Of course,” Jiang Tian replied.
She looked at her phone, which was still showing a call: "Boss Shen, if there's nothing else, hang up. It doesn't matter what you think of me, but I wouldn't dare to earn money I shouldn't."
Shen Yanting heard the voice of a strange young man from Jiang Tian late at night, and his expression turned somewhat unpleasant.
He overheard the conversation between the two people; it was full of the warmth of everyday life.
He didn't know how Jiang Tian lived in the corners he couldn't see, but she was living a normal life like an ordinary person, and even became so close to someone that he did her laundry, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.
"You have a boyfriend?"
Jiang Tian: "Don't worry about my business, Mr. Shen. Find someone else. I'm hanging up."
As soon as she hung up, a dark cloud appeared on Shen Yanting's face.
Jiang Tian yawned again, and when she met Xie Zilang's hesitant gaze, she slowly explained, "You guessed it, didn't you? He's the one I mentioned to you, the one who took care of me for several years."
Xie Zilang nodded: "He doesn't respect you at all."
Jiang Tian glanced at him and couldn't help but laugh: "What's wrong? Are you feeling sorry for me?"
Xie Zilang didn't shy away from the question, his tone serious: "He shouldn't keep belittling you."
Jiang Tian took out a lollipop, put it in her mouth, and said lazily, "If you were in my shoes, it would be fine for you to say such things. But someone like him doesn't need to respect me. In his eyes, problems that can be solved with money aren't problems at all."
Xie Zilang's expression turned somewhat somber.
"Alright, I rejected him. He's so arrogant, he probably won't contact me again. If you're angry, just focus on your work. After all, I can still exploit you."
No matter how nonchalant Jiang Tian spoke, she couldn't hide her emotions.
Xie Zilang looked at her: "Did you ever like him? Do you still like him now?"
