Chapter 57 - I Thought You Liked Her?

Jiang Xun ignored those strange words and thought for a moment. “If nothing unexpected happens, we’ll schedule a livestream every Saturday from now on.”

She couldn’t livestream every day like other streamers; she had to rack up Merit Points, so every time she streamed, she had to make the netizens think that it was impossible for her to complete a certain task.

When the netizens found out that they had wronged her, they would apologize to her.

However, if she did this too many times, the netizens would probably not fall for it.

Therefore, she had to control the frequency of these kinds of streams. She would have to carefully plan out when she would pull off those stunts as well as create a sustainable environment where she could farm MP.

She couldn’t do it all in one go.

“As for the livestream content, I will post another video.” After Jiang Xun said that, she ignored the comments that told her not to go offline and decisively turned the stream off..

She paid the bill for her and Bingbing’s table and walked out together with everyone.

The income from today’s livestream was quite good. Although there were many people who scolded her and waited to see her make a fool of herself, there were also many people who had given her gifts.

The gifts were not expensive—they all ranged from a few to 10+ yuan, but there were quite a lot of people who had gifted her. Not only that, her subscriber count had soared to 870,000.

In the blink of an eye, she could already be considered a mid-to-upper-level internet celebrity.

As soon as Jiang Xun left the restaurant, she saw Chengnan standing at the entrance to the restaurant. Just as she was about to pretend that she didn’t see him and walk in the opposite direction, Chengnan hurriedly called out to her. “Jiang Xun!”

She couldn’t pretend that she hadn’t seen him, so she could only watch helplessly as Chengnan brought over what looked to be a bag from a pharmacy.

“Jiang Xun.” Chengnan handed the bag to her. “The president knew that you were having a livestream today. He was afraid that you would feel uncomfortable if you ate too much, so he specially bought some medicine and asked me to bring it to you.”

Without waiting for her to speak, he quickly explained, “The president knew that you didn’t want to see him, so he asked me to bring it to you. Otherwise, he would’ve brought it to you personally.

Jiang Xun didn’t pick up, he said to Chengnan seriously, “Please tell Mr. Qin that it’s very easy for people to misunderstand his relationship with me when he’s acting like this. Please ask him not to do such things in the future, whether it be him, you, or someone else.”

She pursed her lips and paused for a few seconds before saying, “Besides, he’s too old for me. The two of us aren’t compatible.”

Chengnan was struck speechless.

Bingbing and the others didn’t know who Mr. Qin was.

But seeing that Chengnan was already in his late 20s, it was likely that the CEO he was talking about wasn’t young either.

All of them nodded their heads furiously in agreement with Jiang Xun.

A middle-aged man actually wanted an 18-year-old girl? How shameless!

Chengnan was stunned by Jiang Xun’s last sentence, his brain having gone completely blank.

How did Jiang Xun steer the topic in this direction? And also, why were the people behind her agreeing?!

The CEO didn’t have that kind of interest in Jiang Xun... right?

“I’ll have to trouble you to make the trip back.” Jiang Xun nodded lightly. “I can’t accept the things, and I don’t feel any discomfort in my stomach right now.”

After saying that, she turned around and left with Bingbing and the others.

Chengnan opened his mouth, wanting to stop Jiang Xun, but he realized that he was stuck. Even if he stopped her, what could he say to her?

Moreover, his mind was still buzzing with her words from earlier, so he ended up staggering back to the car in a daze.

“She won’t accept them?” This whole time, Mufeng had been sitting in the car. While he couldn’t hear what Jiang Xun said, he could see that she didn’t take the medicine.

“Yes. “Chengnan braced himself and repeated what Jiang Xun had said. “She said that in order to avoid other people misunderstanding something, she asked you not to do this again, whether you go see her personally or get someone else to see her in your stead.”

Chengnan hesitated. In the end, he didn’t know whether he should tell Mufeng the other thing she’d said.

Noticing this, however, Mufeng narrowed his eyes slightly. “What else did she say?”

Chengnan looked troubled.

“Speak!” Mufeng ordered in a deep voice.

“She said that you are too old for her and that you are not suitable for her.” Chengnan spoke quickly and closed his eyes after saying that.

Mufeng’s face instantly darkened. Chengnan laughed dryly. “Miss Jiang’s words are a little funny. How could she misunderstand you as being interested in her? President, you are only feeling guilty toward her, it’s not that you like her, ahahaha...”

As Chengnan spoke, he saw Mufeng’s face turning darker and darker. His dry laughter became softer and softer, and his smile became stiffened until the laughter disappeared.

Chengnan suddenly had a terrifying thought.

Mufeng... It couldn’t be!

“I’m not that old, am I?!” Mufeng exclaimed, his expression stormy.

Chengnan blinked.

Was…was this what he should be worried about? Shouldn’t he be worrying about the fact that Jiang Xun was too narcissistic and thought that he liked her?

*

The netizens who were eating in Xijing Restaurant had taken pictures from various angles and posted them on the Internet. It was enough to prove that Jiang Xun wasn’t faking her big appetite.

However, there were still people who said disdainfully, “She might’ve eaten everything for real, but who knows if she vomited it all out when she went home?”

“She ate so much and relies on exercise to maintain her figure? Then just how intense is the exercise she does? Stop kidding around!”

“Her words are just lies to ignorant people. Just calculate the calories in her meal and you will know. For this meal, she has to run at least 100 kilometers to burn it all off, but that’s the distance from the capital to the neighboring Sanshui City, so she’d have to keep running non-stop! If she keeps running and stopping for breaks, she wouldn’t be burning off many calories, either.”

“What nonsense is the person above saying?”

“It’s fine to be a person who eats too much and works hard to keep fit, but you’ve gone too far. Do you really think she’s a fool?”

“More importantly, you’re the fool who believes her.”

When Jiang Xun saw these comments, she sent them a private message without saying a word.

“Milk Candies.”

“Scrap Pickers of the past.”

“Demonic Positioning.”

“Ding Xiaoyi.”

“Sand Fishing.”

“Split Underpants.”

“Dan Dan.”

The seven people who had been privately messaged by Jiang Xun felt a chill run down their spine.

What was she trying to do this time?!

They had never commented on this before, so they had never experienced anything like having their usernames marked by Jiang Xun’s private messages.

When they saw the others talking about this matter, they did not feel like they were experiencing the same thing and had even felt that it was impossible for Jiang Xun to send private messages to each and every one of them.

But now, that exact scenario has happened to them! It was only then did they feel this horror.

Splits underpants: “Are you crazy? You sent everyone a private message!”

Jiang Xun could not be bothered with such an incompetent and furious netizen, so she went to check her Merit Points.

She now had a total of 1,577 points, so she immediately clicked on the Intermediate mission button.

She decisively clicked on [ Yes ] .
