Chapter 67: As Long as You Know
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
After finis.h.i.+ng the mini-marathon and giving donations, Meng Fan noticed that the infamous guy who had suddenly appeared calling Wu Tong endearing names posed no threat, so he smiled and gestured a farewell before leaving.
Hu Ting Song watched Meng Fan leave, feeling a little prideful. At least this fatty knew a match when he saw one.
He then saw the employees looking at him differently, realizing he had achieved his purpose. He was so handsome, with such good grades, from such a good family background with such a generous heart. Coupled with a relations.h.i.+p between Wu Tong and his uncle. She would be his eventually!
“You keep being busy. I’m gonna head back.”
He had achieved his goal. Hu Ting Song waved arrogantly and turned away, not even waiting for the donation certificate. How generous indeed.
“The fool stomped over and only donated three thousand, but he’s still so haughty.”
The gentle-eyed G.o.d waited for Hu Ting Song to leave before saying something to Wu Tong in a big sister tone, “This dumba.s.s is nowhere near as good as that chubby bro. His looks are alright, but he has a terrible temperament; I could tell at first glance; he’s the type to take things out on his wife if his marriage went awry. His brand name clothes are not fake, but they are all discounted out of season pieces. His family background is probably alright. But that belt buckle… It’s almost too lowly. And those nails, oh my G.o.d, I can’t stand men who grow out their pinky nails…”
A female G.o.d next to Wu Tong smiled. “You G.o.d, you are really ignorant about what women want. Your standards are good, but all the men who reach your standard don’t like women okay. You can find one, but we can’t!”
The gentle G.o.d, originally named Xu Jun Nuo, who had later disa.s.sembled his name into the characters Cao You, smiled happily. “Yeah, my standard of men wouldn’t like a girl like you. They all say exercise is the best form of skincare, but there is a prerequisite; you can’t be lacking with all the sprays and creams you’re supposed to wear…”
Wu Tong listened to the You G.o.d talk about the latest sunscreen he had acquired while listening to the issue on hand. She rather liked the atmosphere of the running circle.
“Fatty.”
Zhang Zhou Wei held his phone as he caught up. After walking for a while, he awkwardly smiled and gestured to the phone. “Uh, just now, everything was recorded on the stream. Your fickle netizens seem to be a bit… excited.”
Zhang Zhou Wei didn’t have a chance to return Meng Fan’s phone to him after confirming the donation amount, so he had filmed everything that had happened with Hu Ting Song.
In movies and novels, these kinds of idiotic situations happened all the time but not often in reality!
To the fickle netizens in the stream channel, Zhang Zhou Wei’s action had been standard vanity seeking routine!
Hu Ting Song had donated three thousand HXB to show off in vain, and the dumba.s.s had arrogantly asked Meng Fan how much he donated, saying ‘more or fewer donations are the same’, hahaha.
Haha yourself you dumba.s.s. Meng Fan had donated three times as much as you!
Unfortunately, the dumba.s.s host was not vigilant, pa.s.sing up such a good opportunity to clap back!
What were you thinking, bro? You couldn’t be low-key when pursuing girls!
Take out your donation voucher and slap him with it!
A love rival’s face was already beneath your size 45 shoe soles, yet at this moment you didn’t step on him and choose to play compa.s.sionate?!
Of course, there were different opinions. Some believed Meng Fan had already posed and acted out in vain, only the latter was an afterthought, waiting for Hu Ting Song to feel the pain for a long time once he realized. As for the posing part, it was mostly introverted.
When a love rival is chasing your girl, the girl herself should be aware of it too. She could see the highs and lows, not speaking of what she sees to test if it’s broken.
All in all, because of Hu Ting Song’s sudden intrusion, the stream channel blew up into a frenzy. The live comments all spoke of posing and acting out in vain as if a group of internet authors was hosting a seminar on vanity.
“You streamed it all?”
Meng Fan paused for a moment and accepted the phone Zhang Zhou Wei had pa.s.sed back to him. He didn’t have time to look at the virtual interface in his mind, so he looked at the live comments, not knowing what to say.
But Zhang Zhou Wei spoke up, “The netizens want you to say a few words.”
“Yes, say a few words!”
“We want to know what the host is thinking!”
“And how you’re so f*king humble!”
When the fickle netizens heard Zhang Zhou Wei’s words and remembering his help in recording the incredible scene go down, they had mostly forgotten about Zhang Zhou Wei dropping the phone.
“What do you mean what I think?” Meng Fan thought that since there were over eighty thousand people online, he should try to promote more positive energy. “It doesn’t matter what kind of intentions they held when they came to donate. In the end, they still gave the donation. Don’t look at the face value but rather the money value I guess. We should give him a way out.”
“It doesn’t matter if he looks down on me or steps on my face; those are all trivial matters. He didn’t succeed in stepping on me, nor did he succeed in posing. The people watching knew. You guys knew, and that’s enough. Who cares if he doesn’t know? Can’t someone spend three thousand dollars to please themselves? If we investigated everything so clearly, then it would be boring!”
Meng Fan originally wanted to ask the colleagues from the academy who watched the stream to not spread this, but he felt a little fake. It didn’t align with the topic of positive energy, so he let it go.
Besides, he really had no beef with Hu Ting Song. In addition to his demeanor netting him almost zero chances of getting Wu Tong, there really was no need to lose it with him.
After so many days of interactions, Meng Fan couldn’t confirm anything else, but he could guarantee that Wu Tong was not interested in guys like Hu Ting Song. No matter how one looked at it, Wu Tong was someone who had eighteen older brothers and thirteen younger ones; all of whom were very good to her. Not just any man could catch her eye.
“So, the stream will end here.”
Meng Fan pointed the camera at himself, revealing a smile. He waved and said, “I won’t be going to Song Cheng this afternoon. Gonna try to get some sleep. Hopefully, I’ll be streaming again at the studio tonight.”
Offline.
He looked at the data. Currently, there were eighty-seven thousand people online, while his total viewers including the people at the event whose heads he turned tallied to 300,000!
[Famous Streamer] Task phase three: 720,000/1,000,000.
UP level has raised to 20.
[Wealth Distribution Cherub] had also entered task phase 2. Presently, he had distributed 13,000 HXB, only 10,000 HXB away from completing task phase 2.
“Well, you appeared at the f*cking right time.”
Zhang Zhou Wei saw Xing Ta Ge pulling up in his car and couldn’t help but curse at him. n.o.body knew how difficult it had been to ride the ‘small donkey’ bike Wu Tong had borrowed for him.
“You think you’re hot sh*t!”
Xing Ta Ge ignored Zhang Zhou Wei, giving Meng Fan a fist b.u.mp. He had watched the entire stream on his phone, and aside from feeling admiration towards Meng Fan, he felt even more admiration. “Heading back? Or do you want to eat first?”
“Of course, let’s head back.”
If he didn’t shower, Meng Fan would go insane.
“Then let’s go.”
Xing Ta Ge opened the car door, and upon seeing Zhang Zhou Wei step in, he blocked him immediately. He smiled and pointed towards the railing. “You haven’t handled your traffic accident yet. Are you trying to escape?”
“F*ck that traffic accident. The railing is fine. The bike is fine. Only I’m damaged. I’m settling it with myself. Is that not okay?!”
“You should at least return the small donkey then.”
Bam! Xing Ta Ge slammed the car door and started the engine, taking off and leaving a trail of dust and Zhang Zhou Wei to ponder under the blazing sun.
He still had to ride ten kilometers to return it!
Why the h.e.l.l did I come to see the crowd!
What now?
It is life!
He returned to the small donkey and got on. While looking at the battery power, Zhang Zhou Wei was not sure if it was enough to return to the Huang Long gymnasium.
“Student Wu Tong.”
Zhang Zhou Wei held a glimmer of hope as he approached Wu Tong, pointing to the small donkey. “The bike…”
“Oh, the bike! Just ride it to the gymnasium and hand it to the gatekeeper, Grandpa Sun.” Wu Tong added another question. “Did Meng Fan go back already? Tell him to shower quickly, or else he will catch a cold.”
Are they all monsters?
n.o.body cares about me!
Zhang Zhou Wei bore his gut full of grievances and called w.a.n.g Ya Nan for some consolation. She answered immediately.
“I’m in the library.”
With that, she hung up.
