Chapter 40
Little Fatty's eyes lit up, sensing something was going on.
Sure enough, his sinister and terrifying cousin left him and walked up to the counter.
This was a great opportunity to escape! But Little Fatty really, really wanted to see his cousin's performance, so he stood rooted to the spot.
Suddenly, a shadow fell across the desktop. Just as Jiang Yan was about to look up, a deep, familiar voice had already crept into her ear: "Baby, what are you doing here?"
Little Fatty's eyes shone with excitement, oh my god, he called her baby!
Jiang Yan shivered, slowly raising her head to meet Shang Lu's handsome but gloomy face. She had been ignoring his messages for several days because he annoyed her, originally planning to appease him tonight, but then she forgot amidst her live stream.
"You don't reply to my messages, you don't answer my calls..." Shang Lu said while using his long fingers to lift her chin.
[Ah ah ah ah ah! Someone's harassing the host!]
[Host, host, is that your boyfriend?]
[This man's voice sounds a bit lustful!]
[Is that her boyfriend or a bad guy? Should we call the police? It's a bit scary!]
[Why does it keep sounding like a little wife who ran away and got caught?]
[I really love that tone!]
Jiang Yan only had time to lock her phone before pursing her lips and explaining to him, "I'm working here."
"You don't have time to reply to me because you're working? You couldn't even let me know?" Shang Lu leaned over the counter, his cold black eyes looking down at her oppressively, making Jiang Yan seem pitiful.
Jiang Yan couldn't help but whine, "Why are you behaving like you caught me cheating? I didn't cheat, I'm just doing a job, and you're being so harsh on me!"
If she really had cheated, it wouldn't be this simple. Shang Lu let out a cold laugh and was about to speak.
Jiang Yan acted on a whim, her voice quavering as she pouted her small lips and complained pitifully, "I work night shifts and I'm already so tired! And you still want me to reply to you, I'm almost dead from exhaustion every day, I don't even get enough sleep..."
Seeing tears about to fall, Shang Lu reined in his temper, gently wiping her eyes with his fingers. He decided to appease her first, and promptly admitted fault and apologized.
Little Fatty was dumbfounded watching this, thoroughly impressed by this sister-in-law who could tame his cousin! She could actually handle his cousin, she must be someone amazing, he must seek her favor!
The live stream chat was flooded with comments, drawing in a crowd of onlookers.
[My wife is so good! Oh, it makes my heart ache to hear it, I beg for a live re-enactment my wife!]
[Why, why did you turn the phone over! What can't I see?]
[The host is really good at crying, just a few words and the man was appeased!]
[This is actually a bit exciting.]
[This dog food is really not for human consumption, it's a bit choking.]
Shang Lu asked, "Are you going back to the school tonight?"
Jiang Yan shook her head softly, "I get off work at midnight, the school gates will be closed, I'll go back tomorrow morning."
Shang Lu was silent for a moment, gesturing towards the little brat behind him, "Alright, I'll go drop him off first then."
Jiang Yan didn't understand what he meant by "first", but to be obedient, she kept nodding.
...
Shang Lu called a car to drop Little Fatty off. In the car, Little Fatty tried to strike a deal with his cousin, "Bro, just drop me off at the door and leave, and I won't tell mom you have a girlfriend, how about that?"
Shang Lu glanced at him coldly, "Behave yourself. Go ahead and tell her, I was planning to bring her home for dinner anyway."
Little Fatty: ...Mistake, I really didn't expect my cousin to be so open about it.
Jiang Yan struggled to explain things to her fans, but they kept hyping themselves up, calling her a little wife, saying "steal my wife", calling her a great beauty, and so on.
The good news was that the stream's viewer count rose sharply. After ending the stream, Jiang Yan checked the earnings, which were about double what she would make working at an internet cafe.
Before she could be happy about it, that tall figure suddenly appeared at the entrance again.
