Xiaomian is responsible for connecting with Lan Shuang. She has a gentle and protective personality, so she gets along well with Lan Shuang. She always calls her "baby" or "dear" in a somewhat corny way.
Lan Shuang didn't react. Ning Yufeng, who was peeking openly at her, narrowed his eyes and asked unkindly, "What are you talking about?"
"She asked me why I hadn't been live streaming recently. I signed a contract with the platform and was supposed to broadcast 25 days a month, but I've been busy lately. I was delayed, and there were still five days left. Today is the 23rd, and there are only seven days left until next month. If I don't broadcast enough time, I have to pay a penalty."
Ning Yufeng was silent for a moment, then asked a soul-searching question: "What is live streaming?"
Lan Shuang: “…”
It's really a headache to explain. Once one problem is explained, another one will be involved. Lan Shuang feels that she has to buy Ning Yufeng a mobile phone as soon as possible so that he can integrate into modern society as quickly as possible.
"I'll talk to you later. I'll reply first."
Lan Shuang: [I'm sorry, Xiaomian. I've had some family matters lately, and it was quite sudden, so I've been quite busy. I forgot to tell you. I'll start the show once I'm settled. I won't breach my contract.]
Xiaomian: [Huh? Something's going on at home. Take care of it. Don't worry. There are still two days left. It'll be the same if you broadcast for five days. I just wanted to remind you.]
Lan Shuang: [Thank you for your understanding. One more thing: can I get an advance on my livestreaming salary for this month and next? I need the money urgently.]
Xiaomian didn't reply immediately this time. It was hard to say whether to advance salary or not. She couldn't make the decision, so she probably had to ask.
Lan Shuang didn't urge her.
She leaned on the sofa and murmured, "I still have to change houses."
Ning Yufeng was puzzled: "Change house? Why?"
Lan Shuang spread her hands and said, "We are definitely wanted by the Ling family now. This place is not safe. If they come looking for us, it will be very troublesome. I plan to move to a new house."
This is one aspect, and on the other hand, there are traces of Ling Feng's life here, which makes her feel a little disgusted. She can endure the harsh living conditions, but she cannot tolerate her territory being offended.
So changing houses is imperative!
Ning Yufeng pondered for a moment, then nodded reservedly: "That's true, this place doesn't look very good."
Lan Shuang glanced at him and was about to say something when her cell phone suddenly rang.
Xiaomian: [You've only been working here for less than six months, so you shouldn't get a salary advance. We have strict regulations. But I don't think you're the type to scam people out of money, so I'm using my own salary as collateral to secure this opportunity for you. I'll give you an 8,000 yuan advance. For the next two months, you won't receive any salary except for tips and advertising income.]
Xiaomian: [Because you're the newcomer I've spotted, I think you have great potential, so you need to keep working hard!]
Xiaomian: [cat high five.jpg]
Lan Shuang felt relieved. "Thank you, Xiaomian. I will definitely work hard and won't let you down!"
Xiaomian: [Okay!]
Then after a while, Lan Shuang received a text message on her phone, indicating that the bank transfer had occurred.
With these eight thousand yuan, she could rent a new house and buy some new things. It would be enough to support herself and Ning Yufeng for a short period of time. After that...
She turned her head to look at Ning Yufeng, and then studied the subsequent developments.
After Lan Shuang thanked Xiaomian again, she took out her mobile phone and demonstrated to Ning Yufeng how to use various software.
Ning Yufeng was honest this time and took note of everything Lan Shuang said.
Lan Shuang taught Ning Yufeng the unfamiliar characters one by one. Fortunately, although the characters in the past were different from those now, most of them were still similar. Learning was faster by associating them. In just one afternoon, Ning Yufeng could basically understand all the characters on the phone.
In the evening, Lan Shuang took Ning Yufeng out. Because she didn't have any clothes for Ning Yufeng, she could only let him wear the white robe he wore before.
With white clothes, red eyes and long hair, Ning Yufeng is simply the most handsome guy walking on the street.
Anyone who passed by him would turn around to take a closer look, and one old man even accidentally bumped into a lamppost.
Lan Shuang: “…”
Ning Yufeng: “…”
He impatiently tugged at Lan Shuang's sleeve and asked in a low voice, "Why are they looking at me?"
Lan Shuang said quietly, "Don't you feel that you are different from them?"
Ning Yufeng: “…”
He thought for a moment and stopped walking. He just stood by the road and stared at the passers-by. His eyes were too sharp, and his dark red pupils looked a little gloomy under the street lights. People couldn't help but speed up their pace after being stared at by him. After a while, no one passed by them anymore.
Lan Shuang: “…”
The birds have flown away from the thousands of mountains and the people have disappeared from the thousands of paths. This is the scene.
Ning Yufeng's face turned even uglier, "Why are you running?"
Lan Shuang sighed, pinched the back of his neck and pushed him forward. "Alright, stop looking. If you keep looking, you'll be on the local news headlines tomorrow. Something about a man in white clothes with red eyes standing guard on the roadside at night, and passersby avoiding him. He's suspected of having mental problems."
Ning Yufeng: “…”
"After watching for so long, you should have figured out the problem, right?"
Lan Shuang pulled him to a secluded place, away from the street lights, so that his red eyes would not look so obvious.
Ning Yufeng pulled her hand down, squeezed it hard, and then let go. "Isn't it just that your hair is shorter than mine and you have fewer clothes? Your arms and legs are exposed."
"And your eyes. Most people's eyes are black, but yours are dark red. I can only tell others that you're wearing cosmetic contact lenses. This eye color isn't common among foreigners. You'd better tone it down and change the color back."
Ning Yufeng was silent for a moment, closed his eyes, and opened them again the next moment. He leaned in front of Lan Shuang and said, "Is this okay now?"
His tone was reluctant and his eyes were a little resentful, but his black pupils were moist and he looked inexplicably obedient.
His aggression suddenly weakened a lot. Lan Shuang couldn't help but patted him on the head and said, "It looks good."
Ning Yufeng raised his eyebrows, his expression visibly better, "Really?"
"Yeah, so let's go get our hair cut next."
Ning Yufeng: “.”
…
After being pushed into the barber shop, Tony, speaking a mix of idiomatic and unfashionable English, walked over with a twist of his waist. He looked the two of them up and down, then smiled and raised his orchid finger: "Hey, new customers, beautiful ladies, is this handsome guy your boyfriend?"
The three words "boyfriend" touched Ning Yufeng's sore spot. Ning Yufeng secretly glanced at Lan Shuang, wanting to see what she would say.
Lan Shuang said frankly: "Yes, boyfriend."
Ning Yufeng curled up his fingers, pursed his lips, turned his face away, and his earlobes felt slightly warm.
The light in Tony's eyes dimmed instantly. "Oh~ this girl."
Lan Shuang narrowed her eyes, "Why do you sound so regretful?"
