Chapter 8: The Tattooed Grass Protector - A Man Playing Games in the Office...
While the man was playing games in the office, a subordinate knocked on the door and came in. After seeing their boss's face, which was as black as the bottom of a pot, the subordinate silently withdrew.
When a colleague saw him return, he asked, "Hey, didn't you go to deliver documents to General Manager Zhu? Why are you back again?"
The subordinate clasped his hands together as if he were about to become a Buddha: "You all better not go in. I just saw President Zhu's face. It wasn't even as dark as the most difficult contract we negotiated before."
He was glad he hadn't gone and walked right into the line of fire.
Everyone was speculating what had happened to President Zhu to make his face turn the darkest it had ever been, little did they know that he had simply been tricked by a small streamer and was powerless to fight back.
After Ning Buyi missed his second skill again, Zhu Yanhe hesitated for a second on his head before jumping down.
"I won't stop you from developing; you still have a lot of room for growth."
This is definitely a compliment to him. It's so touching, dear sponsor. He will work hard.
"The art of speaking, hahaha."
"I can't even stand looking at it, hahaha."
"Sometimes, Jianjian really does resemble a mildly intellectually disabled person who can take care of himself."
...
As expected, he lay down in various places in the canyon, but Ning Buyi was the kind of person who became more courageous with each setback, and the more courageous he became, the more setbacks he suffered.
So he spent another afternoon getting beaten up in the game with Zhu Yanhe.
Zhu Yanhe said, "In the future, we should do less of this kind of thing—repaying kindness with ingratitude."
After saying that, Zhu Yanhe logged off. Ning Buyi opened his big eyes and looked at the camera again, his eyes blinking: "Why doesn't anyone want to play with me anymore?"
"What do you think, you jerk?"
"It feels like people would rather give gifts to the jerk than fight him."
"I'm laughing so hard watching this."
...
Zhu Yanhe:…
The man sent a bunch of gifts and then turned off the screen. He suspected that Ning Buyi's eyes had a magical power, making it impossible for anyone looking at them to refuse him.
It was almost time for Ning Buyi to finish his broadcast when Li Chang texted him to come eat. So he went out without even remembering what he was wearing.
He updated his post on the gaming website right after his stream ended, saying, "My cheeky baby wore a sailor uniform today, let me recommend it!" He also included clips from his stream.
T1: Jianjian is still too authoritative; he can even handle this.
T2: Who gave me that stupid advice?
T3: It's pretty average. You guys are perverts, you've never even seen women in drag.
T4: Where did this lemon essence come from? It's overflowing with sourness.
...
The man, who had been angrily confronted by the crowd, clenched his fists, but soon relaxed his brows and sent a few messages.
"You're not even changing your clothes after broadcasting? Hurry up." A normal man might have some strange feelings when he sees him, but when Li Chang sees him, he can only think of Ning Buyi stealing his meat, inexplicably flicking him from behind, and a whole series of other things. He's incredibly mean to people he knows.
Ning Buyi walked straight to the front desk: "Brother, I need to eat first, I'm hungry."
Li Chang immediately sat down and opened the packaging bag. If he had been a moment later, the guy would have eaten an extra piece of meat.
"Why aren't you watching my live stream?" Ning Buyi asked him. He realized that Li Chang wasn't watching his live stream, which was unacceptable.
I've seen Li Chang's video, but I'll never click on it again. This guy plays as badly as he is; he's too incompetent.
It's so bad that even if you play a game of Penguin Farm, they'll send you a message saying you're terrible. Anyone who can stand watching this is no ordinary person.
Li Chang bluntly told him to recognize his own limitations.
"You're a terrible player."
Upon hearing this, Ning Buyi reached out with his chopsticks to snatch food from his bowl. Li Chang, of course, was already on guard and immediately picked up his bowl.
Li Chang added fuel to the fire: "Can't I even say anything about your cooking?"
Ning Buyi bluntly said, "I'll steal your takeout tomorrow and hide to eat it all by myself."
That's so evil! It's practically a hybrid of an evil Chihuahua and a beagle, an evil Chihuahua.
Li Chang sat back down and coaxed, "Not bad, not bad, but when it comes to Xiang, I, Sun, still have to play well. You're second in the whole country."
After being praised, Ning Buyi held her nose high, but didn't care where the praise came from.
The boy was a bit possessive of his food, so he quickly finished the rice in his bowl and patted his belly contentedly.
"Hey, internet cafe manager, a cup of instant noodles!" a voice came from one of the booths inside.
"I'll go, you eat first." Ning Buyi got up without thinking, took a cup of instant noodles from the cabinet, poured water on it, and went over.
"for you."
The man, who was playing a game, didn't even look up until he caught a glimpse of the skirt and looked up. Wait, is that a man or a woman? When did the internet cafe manager change?
Just as the man was about to speak, Ning Buyi had already left, leaving him only with his back to him, his long, fair legs swaying back and forth in full view of everyone.
It aroused a physical reaction in him.
After finishing his instant noodles, the man got up and looked for Ning Buyi, but couldn't find him. He went to the front desk and asked, "Hey, where's the girl who brought me the instant noodles?"
Li Chang gave him a look: "What girls? There are no girls."
The man described her in detail: "She's a girl with short hair, wearing a sailor uniform, and long legs. It's just a shame she's flat-chested."
The more he described it, the more something seemed off. Wasn't he just talking about his eldest son, Ning Buyi, in such a disgusting way?
Li Chang raised an eyebrow: "Hmm, what are you going to do?"
The man grinned lewdly: "Do you have her contact information? I'd like to get to know her."
One sentence immediately ignited Li Chang's anger. Regardless of whether he was a man or not, how dare this guy, who looked like he hadn't showered in days and had those big yellow teeth, set his sights on Ning Buyi? Go to hell.
"Get the hell away from me. If you dare to have designs on him, I'll kill you." Li Chang rolled up his sleeves, showing off his biceps and his heavily tattooed arms, highlighting his absolute strength.
As soon as he finished speaking, the man, intimidated, returned to his seat dejectedly.
Just then, Ning Buyi returned to the front desk from the restroom. The man looked at him as he came out of the men's room, and his shock turned into disdain. "What is he? A sissy."
If Li Chang knew he was thinking like this, he would kick him out immediately. However, this man won't be able to book any more clients after today.
Li Chang watched him leave and said, "You're not allowed to dress like that in public anymore, you hear me?"
Ning Buyi asked why.
Li Chang glanced at him and said, "I just saw some gay men in the internet cafe."
He didn't want to disgust Ning Buyi, so he made up an excuse.
Ning Buyi was so frightened that he took a step back: "How did you know?"
Li Chang whispered, "He's watching those kinds of movies on his computer."
Ning Buyi took two steps back, then three steps back, and then turned around and ran back to his "Tiger" private room to change his clothes.
Li Chang laughed so hard he almost lost his balance; this guy was just too funny.
But this incident also made Li Chang more cautious. He couldn't let Ning Buyi keep watch this night; he had to do it himself. Otherwise, anyone who wanted Ning Buyi would be worried sick.
The next day during the live stream, Ning Buyi wore normal clothes; it takes him several days to recover after wearing women's clothing once.
The number of viewers in the live stream was higher than yesterday.
He waited for a long time today but his sugar daddy didn't show up. Was it because he was too amazing yesterday?
"Sister Y doesn't want you anymore."
"Hahahaha, I can't take it anymore, are you scared, Sister Y?"
“Jianjian is going to be sad. If you’re not sad, Mom will brush your teeth for you.”
...
On the other side, inside the office building.
"All you ever do is shirk your responsibilities! Watching that live stream!" A middle-aged man pointed at Zhu Yanhe, who was sitting in his boss's chair looking at a contract.
The middle-aged man is Zhu Yanhe's father, Zhu Guanghai.
Zhu Yanhe seemed to feel uncomfortable sitting there and leaned back: "So you know I'm not doing my job properly? Does your company run on air?"
Zhu Guanghai pointed at him for a long time without saying a word, then sighed and sat down on the sofa.
“Yanhe, I know you resent me and your mother, so you’ve always been sarcastic and hostile towards us. We’re only doing this for your own good.”
Zhu Yanhe's face was expressionless: "Dad, what are you talking about? Weren't you and Mom the ones who made the decision back then?"
Zhu Guanghai hung his head, unlike his imposing demeanor in the business world, while Zhu Yanhe remained indifferent. To outsiders, it looked like a son scolding his unfilial father.
"Your sister wants to join the company, so you can take her in. Don't blame her; it's not her fault," Zhu Guanghai said slowly. This was the main purpose of his trip. He no longer managed things much; the company was mostly run by Zhu Yanhe, so he was the one in charge.
"Whatever you like." Zhu Yanhe opened the document and looked at it, not giving his father a single glance.
Zhu Guanghai saw that his son didn't care about what he said, so he left.
Zhu Yanhe's original intention to watch the live stream was now ruined, so he called in his assistant who was watching the show at the door.
"If you put the same energy you use for gossiping into your work, your salary wouldn't be stagnant now. Call all the department heads over for a meeting."
The assistant chuckled sheepishly. "Well, what can I do? It's human nature to gossip, and besides, he clearly gave himself a raise this year."
Zhu Yanhe had no objection to his sister joining the company. She was just a rich girl who was only here to have some fun. His idea was to have her as an assistant.
"You all better not be too worried about her temper," Zhu Yan said with a forced smile to the directors below.
A director dared to raise his hand: "Mr. Zhu, is Miss Zhu more good-tempered or are you?"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Yanhe thought about it seriously for a moment and said calmly, "Personally speaking, I have a pretty good temper."
After saying that, he left.
Several directors wiped their sweat. How difficult must this princess be to serve? She has an even worse temper than President Zhu. How are they supposed to get along with her?
Zhu Yanhe didn't touch the computer all morning, busy with business, which made Ning Buyi distracted. The puppy had become picky and could no longer be satisfied with just a few coins.
"You little rascal, I didn't expect your skills could still decline."
"Jianjian misses Sister Y, doesn't he? He made Sister Y leave yesterday."
"Actually, it's not really Jianjian's fault, he's just bad at the game."
...
Ning Buyi was already feeling resentful, and the viewers were making him sound so rude. Did he even have any dignity left?
He originally wanted to play games with Jingjing this morning, but Jingjing and the others said they wanted to play ranked matches. Why is it so hard to find a teammate? The number one player in the national server is online and undefeated!
A moment later, Jingjing requested to join the live stream. The first thing she asked him was:
"What's wrong, Jianjian?"
Ning Buyi shook her head: "Nothing? Sister, do you want to play games with me?"
"No, no." Jingjing quickly refused, as if she would have been in the canyon a second later.
"Jingjing shook her head like a rattle drum."
"I'm dying of laughter, Jingjing is the president of the Victims of Jerks Association."
"Jackie's savior has arrived."
...
"I'm telling you, there seems to be some kind of streamer PK competition in about a month. Didn't you ask me before how to gain followers? You'll gain followers if you become famous." Jingjing blinked and told him the information.
Ning Buyi asked in confusion, "What is the Streamer PK Competition?"
Jingjing explained it to him carefully. The Streamer PK Competition is an official competition organized by Lemon, with several awards, namely Best Appearance Streamer, Best Game Streamer, and Best Popularity Streamer.
