Chapter 8 Side Quest: He's practically fallen for you! ...
Fang Xuran still felt a little unreal after resolving the issue that had been bothering her for a week so easily.
Looking at the flood of comforting comments from fans and apologies from strangers under his Weibo post, he felt that the world was simply surreal.
The agent was so shocked that he couldn't speak, staring at his phone screen, lost in thought.
Fang Xuran hesitated for a long time, but finally couldn't resist sending a message to the mysterious woman who had overturned his understanding of her in just two days: [Sister, how did you know about Jiang Chuan?]
The other party replied quickly: "Someone already leaked this on Greenban last week, didn't you know? Looks like the people in charge of public opinion monitoring are really just sitting around doing nothing."
Fang Xuran felt offended despite being inexplicably disliked. He looked at the message the other party sent and found some of the words increasingly familiar. Last week, wasn't that when he had just had the accident?
The next moment, it was as if his Ren and Du meridians had suddenly been opened, and he almost urgently responded:
[Fang Xuran: Last week?]
[Fang Xuran: Was it really him who did this to me?]
[Shi Yao: What do you think?]
[Shi Yao: This is the entertainment industry, don't treat everyone as a close friend, young master, especially your competitors in the same field who have the same style as you.]
Looking at Shi Yao's playful words, which were seemingly teasing but actually meant to remind him, Fang Xuran felt a strange warmth in her heart, and then she became somewhat lost in thought.
Jiang Chuan... it really was him who did it.
Although they weren't exactly close friends, he genuinely had a good impression of his roommates, especially Jiang Chuan; he even thought they had a lot in common.
He never imagined that the other person would just use him as a scapegoat, and that his casual sharing of his unlucky exam experience would be used against him so quickly...
His phone vibrated again, interrupting his somewhat downcast mood.
[Shi Yao: How was my service, boss? Are you satisfied?]
Interrupted halfway through his dejection, Fang Xuran suddenly lost all his bad mood upon seeing Shi Yao's somewhat irritating tone, and he didn't even notice the smile on his lips.
Fang Xuran: Satisfied, extremely satisfied. I'll definitely contact you again if I need anything next time.
After sending it, I muttered to myself, "Next time I'll definitely send the money immediately. I absolutely won't let this situation of hesitating for two minutes and then regretting it for the whole day happen again."
That's 400,000!
[Shi Yao: If you're satisfied, please give me a good review!]
[Fang Xuran: How can I leave a good review? Do you even have an online store?]
[Shi Yao: No, it's just that if you have the chance, please recommend me to your friends in the industry and say a few good words about me.]
[Shi Yao: Thanks, boss! If there's anyone you'd like to recommend, just have them mention your name and add me. I'll give you a discount next time. [Sending flowers]]
When Fang Xuran saw Shi Yao's first message, his first instinct was to refuse. To put it nicely, his collaboration with Shi Yao was an emergency risk avoidance, but to put it bluntly, it was crisis public relations and manipulating public opinion.
This is such a private matter! How could I possibly share it with others so casually?
Although everyone in the industry does this often, and it could even be considered a necessity, it's like wearing underwear—no one is comfortable directly sharing what color their underwear is today.
But when he saw Shi Yao's discount, he couldn't resist. He just went back to review Shi Yao's prices and even secretly long-pressed to bookmark them.
Shi Yao's prices aren't cheap; in fact, they're extremely expensive. But the service is absolutely impeccable. With such fast service, such a great result, and such a reassuring experience, he'll definitely repurchase, so discounts will be very helpful for him.
Okay, he admitted that he was indeed a little bothered by the 400,000.
Shi Yao had no idea that she had hooked Fang Xuran with just one sentence, and that the other party was seriously considering whether there was a suitable partner in her friend pool.
Potential clients...it seems there are actually some I can recommend?
...
"Four hundred thousand! Host, you are really amazing. I have never seen a host as amazing as you!" The system has also learned Shi Yao's rainbow flattery technique and is praising its host without any reservation.
In fact, Shi Yao was its first host. After all, it was just a newly graduated system. Although it was very safe and reliable and had a lot of experience, it was indeed its first time dealing with humans.
Last night, it thought its new and short-lived life was about to end tragically, having been stuck with a crazy host who not only completely ignored the main plot but also risked his life for money.
Who knew that its host would give it one surprise after another, exceeding expectations in gaining favor and making a fortune. Now it even thinks it's good that its host is a little crazy, enjoying the feeling of being on the verge of death one second and becoming rich the next.
The system was thinking for a moment when it suddenly jolted awake, and then slapped itself in the face.
What's wrong with it? How did it actually get involved? It's a legitimate organization, how could it abandon its principles so quickly?
Shi Yao heard the familiar, crisp sound from her mind again. The sound had appeared yesterday as well. The system didn't want to explain, and she was too lazy to ask.
It's normal to have a few secrets of your own.
[Key supporting character Fang Xuran's favorability towards you has increased by 60, unlocking a new quest.]
Main Quest 2: Gain 30 points of favorability from any key supporting character or main character. Progress: 0/30
Task Rewards: Random Attribute Value Boost Coupon (1 day), 10 Free Attribute Value Allocation Points, Eye-Catching Buff (3 hours), One Lottery Draw Attempt
[You have unlocked the side quest. Please continue to pursue the key supporting character Fang Xuran and increase his favorability. Progress: 80/100]
Task Reward: ? ? ?
Shi Yao couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. This was the first time she had ever seen a side quest. Not only was the quest description extremely brief, but the specific details of the quest rewards were also not told to her.
However, this task could not be completed in a short time, so Shi Yao temporarily put it aside and focused on studying the new main quest.
Fang Xuran's favorability towards her has risen to 80, but it hasn't been counted in the second main quest. This means that a character can only claim the main quest reward once, and any more rewards will have to be attributed to side quests. She has to find a new character.
That's not difficult. She can see the entire plot of the book and knows who the main characters are at a glance. She can just pick a lucky one at random.
The main quest reward is quite interesting. She happened to be interested in that mysterious attribute value up ticket, and this is the reward for the quest. It seems she needs to complete the quest quickly and see what kind of magical thing it is.
The system had no idea what Shi Yao was thinking. It was already stunned by the sudden surge of 60 points in favorability towards you, and exclaimed to itself, "My God, host, Fang Xuran has increased your favorability towards you by 60 points! 60 points! He now has 80 points of favorability towards you, which means he's practically fallen for you!"
Shi Yao: ...Is there such a thing as rounding up like this?
The system was overwhelmed with joy, bubbling with happiness: "You unlocked the side quest on the very second day! You're amazing!"
It seems it's latched onto a powerful figure; how lucky it is.
The system secretly made up its mind that it must assist its host well, clear away obstacles for her, and leave her with absolutely no worries!
Even if... even if it means secretly breaking the rules.
It's just a minor violation, nothing serious... right?
Shi Yao was unaware that the system was making her forget her beliefs because of her; all she could think about was the joy of making 400,000 yuan.
The phone suddenly rang. It was an unknown number. Shi Yao frowned, instinctively feeling that it wasn't a good thing, but she still chose to answer.
"Shi Yao, where the hell have you been?! I'm at your house right now, get back here right now! You think you're all grown up now? You really want to terminate the contract? Can you afford the penalty for breach of contract?!"
