Сhарtеr 23: Acting Соquеttishlу
Lu Нaoming then tурed a rеply tо Jiаng Fu:
【Dоn’t givе mе уour brеаkfаst аnymorе in the future, silly Fufu】
【Didn’t yоu sаy уоu wаntеd tо treаt mе tо a meаl? Нow аbout tonight?】
Seеing Lu Hаoming’s replу, a rаre blush sрrеad aсross Jiang Fu’s faсе. Shе immеdiatelу tуреd back: 【Оkaу, no prоblem, brothеr】
Seeing Jiаng Fu agree, Lu Наоming’s eхрression relаxеd, аnd a faint smilе apрeаrеd аt the сorner оf his mouth.
On stаgе, Shi Yu hаd stopped at the 39th round—aftеr аll, Shi Li Qingfeng’s fists were no mаtсh for the cоmbinеd efforts of a group of Assassins.
As she stepped off the stage, Shi Yu glanced at Jiang Fu with an unreadable expression. Jiang Fu calmly looked up and smiled at her with interest. Shi Yu saw Jiang Fu’s smile—it was incredibly beautiful, yet carried an almost imperceptible aura that made her unable to hold the gaze. She quickly lowered her head as if embarrassed.
Jiang Fu turned her attention back to her phone. Fu Siyan had sent her a message.
Jiang Fu opened the message from Fu Siyan:
【Have you found a place to live yet?】
After hearing yesterday that Jiang Fu wanted to move out, Fu Siyan had already found a very nice apartment for her. But not wanting to be too abrupt, he decided to ask first.
Jiang Fu quickly replied upon seeing the message:
【I’ve already found one, thank you for your concern, brother】
Fu Siyan hadn’t expected Jiang Fu to act so quickly. A slight sense of disappointment welled up in his heart. He gently adjusted his glasses and quickly returned to his usual composure, typing back:
【Okay, no problem】
【Are you still having the employee meal for lunch today?】
The implication was: if you’re still having the employee meal, I don’t mind transferring you some money again.
Having eaten the employee meal for over a month, Jiang Fu was already thinking of changing things up. So she typed back:
【No more～ Do you have any recommendations, brother? /blink】
After sending the message, Jiang Fu immediately felt something was off. After all, she didn’t know where Fu Siyan was. If he recommended something she couldn’t find, wouldn’t she be shooting herself in the foot?
But the message was already sent, so she could only wait obediently for a reply.
Fu Siyan habitually tapped his fingers on the custom-made sofa. Over the years in City A, his meals had always been handled by the Fu family’s private chef. Fufu asking him for recommendations was actually a bit tricky. After some thought, Fu Siyan sent a message:
【I’ll arrange it for you】
Seeing Fu Siyan’s message, Jiang Fu also breathed a sigh of relief. Next time, she shouldn’t ask such troublesome questions for both of them.
【No problem, around the same time as yesterday will do～ Sorry to trouble you, brother】
Then, Jiang Fu opened the transfer function, entered 2000, and sent it to Fu Siyan.
This meal was bound to be expensive, and Jiang Fu didn’t want Fu Siyan to always treat her, especially since he had just transferred her money yesterday.
Seeing Jiang Fu’s transfer, Fu Siyan slowly typed a “?” and replied:
【No need to transfer me money. Be good, I’ll arrange it for you】
Jiang Fu shook her head upon seeing this, a beautiful curve forming at the corner of her mouth. She then opened the voice message function and said in a coquettish tone:
【But if you don’t accept it, brother, I won’t feel right eating～ Please accept it, okay?】
This was followed by a “please, please” sticker.
Jiang Fu was someone who loved acting coquettishly, and Fu Siyan happened to be someone who couldn’t stand coquettishness. As for when he discovered he couldn’t stand it? Probably just now.
This was the first time Fu Siyan had been acted coquettishly toward by a girl, even if it was through a screen.Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but imagine Jiang Fu acting coquettishly in front of him. His eyes softened noticeably, and the smile at the corners of his lips deepened.
After clicking to accept the payment, Fu Siyan replied with a single “Okay” and didn’t send any more messages to Jiang Fu.
He had to admit, he felt a bit shy and didn’t know what else to say.
Summoning the butler, Fu Siyan instructed him to prepare a meal identical to his own lunch and deliver it to the same address as yesterday at 12 o’clock.
Immediately after, he opened Tremolo and navigated to the Dream Entertainment B101 livestream room entrance, as it was almost Jiang Fu’s turn to take the stage.
With his account logged in outside the livestream room, he set his phone aside, turned on his computer, and began handling the day’s light workload.
Learning from past experiences, Fu Siyan had even bought a separate phone specifically for watching Jiang Fu’s livestreams, to avoid someone taking the opportunity to “assassinate” her after he left the livestream room.
Of course, he also didn’t want to give people like Zhou Jingze a chance to swoop in and play the hero.
But those who liked Jiang Fu would inevitably make their move eventually.
How could he not understand this principle?
After hanging around outside the livestream room for about ten minutes, he heard the host exclaiming with surprise and regret.
It turned out that Bai Qian on stage had been “assassinated” by Gu, stopping at the 9th round.
By now, Gu had become the “Assassin Commander” of Dream Entertainment B101.
Everyone noticed that he was generous with his actions and also quite witty, having “assassinated” all four members, so they affectionately started calling him “Commander Gu.”
The livestream room music switched to Jiang Fu’s exclusive entrance theme. She stepped into the screen, waving to greet all the viewers.
“Alright, family! Now let’s hand the stage over to our Fufu. Fufu’s 41st round of Tower Defense begins now!”
Upon hearing the host’s words, Fu Siyan promptly entered the livestream room.
“Family, let’s welcome that man at the entrance,” the host now joked playfully.
Fu Siyan entered the livestream room and remained silent as usual, but the person currently watching on his computer had a pair of handsome eyes filled with laughter.
Jiang Fu began dancing to the music. Gu, having just “assassinated” Bai Qian, didn’t hesitate to target Jiang Fu as well. However, with Fu Siyan and Zhou Jingze present, it was difficult for him to succeed.
And indeed, that’s exactly what happened.
Thus, under the protection of Fu Siyan and Zhou Jingze, Jiang Fu successfully achieved a 50-Winning Streak.
The second payment notification of the day arrived as expected. Jiang Fu’s card now held around 1.3 million.
The second day’s livestream time was also nearing its end. Jiang Fu came off stage, and it was almost one o’clock.
Almost the second she picked up her phone, a call came in.
Jiang Fu answered: “Hello, Miss Jiang. The lunch ordered by Mr. Fu for you is ready. To avoid disturbing your work, I am waiting at the entrance of your studio. Would you prefer me to bring it in for you, or would you like to come out and retrieve it yourself?”
On the other end of the phone was a man speaking with a gentle voice and polite wording.
After listening, Jiang Fu replied, “Sorry to keep you waiting. I’ll come out to get it now.”
