Time and time again

  "Little uncle, just give Jiang Xi one more chance."

  "Get off the bus."

  Tang Gu opened the car door, and the bright red Maserati reflected the streetlights in front of the small villa, shining brightly.

  "I won't." Lu Hao held onto the car handle with one hand and pressed his foot against the door, refusing to get out. "You don't agree, I'm not getting off."

  Tang Gu sighed: "Do you like her?"

  Lu Hao's face turned red and he stubbornly said: "No, won't it work?"

  "You and she are not on the same level." Tōkoku thought about how that girl was so smooth when talking to adults, not showing any fear even when her age was exposed, still being incredibly calm, completely different from his nephew who looked like a giant baby in front of him.

  "You can't tame her."

  "It's not that I don't have a way, but I'm telling you, in front of my younger uncle who has always been close to me, Lu Hao rarely shows a bit of book-smart and unreasonable stubbornness. "This thing is ruined by me, I don't want to face her in the future and can't even lift my head up. Young uncle, you have to help me."

  "She deceived people and did wrong things, what can you do with your head hung low?"

  Tang Gu was completely baffled by his nephew's logic.

  Turning back, I saw that the contract on the passenger seat had been torn in half. Annoyed, I picked it up and threw it into a trash can by the side of the road.

  Lu Hao knew that his little brother-in-law looked pleasant and easy to talk to, but once he made up his mind, he wouldn't easily change it. He was convinced that Jiang Xi had deceived him, had a moral flaw, and would not forgive again.

  But he has an ace up his sleeve.

  "Mom, yes, I'm with your uncle outside the villa. Do you want to say a couple of words to him? Okay."

  Lu Hao handed over his mobile phone.

  Tang Guai reluctantly agreed, and his elder sister was like a mother to him. When he was young, he was almost raised by Lu Hao's mother, and what he feared most was this sister.

  "Older sister."

  "How long has it been since you last contacted your sister? I call you, and all I get is voicemail. What's wrong? Have you become too proud to listen to your sister's nagging for a couple of sentences?"

  "No, no, it's not busy like this, running around everywhere."

  "What's with your small, broken company? You have to go and find some new entertainment. The family business is not being taken care of, and even big sister doesn't miss you. Tomorrow at 11am at Furong Garden, sister has arranged for a good girl for you to meet."

  Tang Gu's face turned ashen as he hung up the phone, which was why he didn't like answering his older sister's calls. Every time she called, she would urge him to go on blind dates, fearing that the Tang family line would be cut off. Seeing her nephew gloating, she scolded: "You little brat! Just you wait!"

  "As long as you agree to give Jiang Xi a chance, I'll help you fix up tomorrow's blind date."

  Tang Gu blew his mustache and glared: "You're going to deal with your younger brother-in-law just for the sake of an outsider?"

  Lu Hao pursed his lips: "...... Maybe in the future, we won't be outsiders anymore."

  "Go dream on." Tang Gu flipped his eyes and said, "Tomorrow after class, bring Jiang Xi to my office."

  "Little uncle, did you promise?!"

  Lu Hao jumped up happily.

  "Nonsense, just one chance. Let Xiao Shu listen to this reason, is it okay?" Tang Gu glanced at him and said, "Tomorrow's blind date, you go and settle it."

  "Really?"

  Lu Huaxing rushed home excitedly, and after the excitement had passed, he suddenly remembered that he didn't have Jiang Xi's phone number. After asking around for a while, he finally got the number, but no matter how long he dialed, no one picked up.

  Just as he was about to hang up, a voice came from the receiver: "Hello?"

  Jiang Xi was looking up information when he answered the phone.

  Jiang's mother brought her warm milk, and she heard from Jiang's father that the reason and consequence were that her daughter was still watching that live broadcast in the middle of the night and didn't sleep. She said with a heartache: "Xixi, since Tang is not willing to sign, let's forget it. Let's see if there's another way, okay?"

  "Xixi's mom, don't interfere too much, Xixi has her own thoughts." Jiang father came in wearing his pajamas, "Go to bed early, daughter, you're still growing up."

  "Dad, Mom, I'll be busy for a while. You go sleep first."

  Although Tōkoku is the best option she can grasp at present, she also needs to make preparations. According to current regulations, there are loopholes that can be exploited, but if she doesn't have a reliable guarantor, she may have to take many detours.

  The more information she looked at, the more she felt that the internet celebrity world was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.

  Especially now that the entire industry chain has been formed, newcomers want to stand out, inevitably touching someone else's cheese, without a background or resources, not only will the time spent be greatly prolonged, but also may end up with nothing accomplished.

  Jiang Xi's greatest lack is time.

  What I fear most is resentment.

  Just like just now, Tang Gu's favorability value changed from positive one to negative one. She was directly deducted two days of popularity value on the basis of her current state - if the base number of dislike increases and exceeds what she currently has, she might be killed instantly.

  The host is exceptionally insightful.

  Xiao Yin gave her a thumbs up.

  Hehe.

  So when she received the good news from Lu Hao, Jiang Xi was even a little grateful - after all, this timed bomb was buried by her personally, and Lu Hao just shortened the detonation time.

  "Has the host discovered that you have more patience with your first love than others?"

  Suddenly, he blurted out a sentence.

  Jiang Xi said calmly: 【Lu Hao is indeed innocent — many things, it's just that the timing was off and things happened to coincide. After all, he's still a 16-year-old kid.】 She let out a sigh.

  If Lu Hao were the protagonist, she would probably be that kind of woman who turns her back on people and doesn't recognize them.

  The host is also a sixteen-year-old child.

  Is it a child?

  Jiang Xi took a sip of milk and smiled slightly with her eyes closed.

  **********

  Jiang Xi never fights unprepared, so he spent the whole night going through Tang Gu's live streams from start to finish, even picking out some individual ones to watch. The next day when he went out, his eyes were swollen like walnuts.

  Does the host need to worry about it?

  Necessary.

  I gained 40 popularity points at the cafe over the weekend. Out of the remaining 850, another 100 were deducted, leaving only 750.

  However, Jiang Xi has always been willing to spend money on his travels.

  At the negotiating table, there can't be any flaws, and a single detail that is not suitable may lead to a complete collapse of the front line. Tang Gu was not someone who would give in to beauty.

  Jiang Xi even packed a black skirt in her backpack, and when Lu Hao came to pick her up, all he saw was a spirited and majestic female general, ready to go into battle at any moment. Her entire body was clad in cold, dark colors, which made her eyebrows and eyes suddenly seem sharp and fierce.

  As a straightforward and uncomplicated man of steel, Lu Hao was unaware that there existed a magical makeup technique in this world that could greatly change one's temperament.

  Jiang Xi got up early and spent a lot of effort on her face, first outlining the soft contours with sharp angles, applying a thin layer of shading powder under her cheekbones to create a strong impression, without touching other areas, after all, Tang Gu was sensitive about makeup as she made a living from live streaming.

  A plain-faced high school student is less intimidating than a heavily made-up one, and more likely to put others at ease.

  How can we eliminate the distrust brought by excessive youthfulness without making people feel attacked, Jiang Xi studied for a long time.

  "Let's go."

  Jiang Xi took the lead and stepped forward first.

  A group of classmates who had not left yet looked at each other in dismay: Didn't you say you broke up?

  Lu Hao habitually reached out to take Jiang Xi's backpack, but she dodged him. "Lead the way."

  Two people, one in front of the other, silently exited the school gate and hailed a taxi heading to the city center. In the taxi, Lu Hao silently watched as Jiang Xi tucked his bangs to one side, revealing a smooth forehead, and suddenly felt that this Jiang Xi was...completely different from the one in his memories.

  Before me are thorny roses, but in the past, they were delicate hibiscus.

  "Is this also you spy?"

  Jiang Xi glanced at him and silently turned towards the window.

  Tang Gu Workshop is located on the third floor of a high-end office building next to Hongtu Commercial Building, occupying an entire floor. The modern decoration is stark and bare, showing off: I'm not short of money.

  "Xiao Shu graduated from university and invested in his first venture, opening this studio. Now he has signed contracts with over a dozen internet celebrities, some of whom are quite famous."

  Lu Hao smiled awkwardly.

  Jiang Xi looked at him and said, "Not bad."

  The studio was bustling with people coming and going, some of whom recognized the young master and greeted him warmly. When they saw Jiang Xi standing beside him, their expressions turned curious.

  Jiang Xi smiled and greeted those who might become colleagues in the future, showing eight teeth, neither more nor less.

  As they walked east, they passed by a row of corridors. Next to the corridors were small compartments, each room not very big with closed doors and windows. Lu Hao noticed Jiang Xi's curiosity: "Each anchor has a private live broadcast room in their work studio."

  As expected, there were signs hanging outside each small room, all different from one another.

  Jiang Xi's eyes landed on a few familiar names, "Lemon Fruit", "Big Big Bird" and so on. She remembered that these were all ranked around 20th place on Doujiao TV.

  "Take me to Mr. Tang's office."

  "Good."

  Tang Gu was timing in the office, he had made up his mind that this time he would just give his nephew a face, no matter what Jiang Xi said later, he would exercise his veto power.

  "Dong dong——"

  "Come in." Tōya tossed the stopwatch aside and adjusted his necktie.

  Jiang Xi adjusted the strap of his backpack with his left hand, clutched the materials he had prepared overnight in his right hand, took a deep breath, and as he entered, his face already wore a practiced, formulaic smile: "Hello, Mr. Tang."

  Tang Gu glanced at her and today's condition was actually pretty good.

  Sit.

  Jiang Xi leaned her backpack against the sofa and sat down. Tang Gu noticed the kraft paper bag in her hand, "What's that?"

  "My own plan for myself."

  "What plan?"

  "How to Explode Traffic in Ten Days Live Broadcasting Plan"

  "Oh?" Tang Gu didn't even bother to look back: "Ten days? Ignorant child, arrogant."

  "You think this can convince me?"

  "At first, Mr. Tang was willing to sign me, naturally because he saw my potential." Jiang Xi didn't give up, took over the cowhide bag and opened it, spreading out page after page of paper in order, ensuring that as soon as Tang Yu looked down, he would see everything at once.

  "Moreover, I've checked the information and found that it's not impossible to start a live streaming platform at 16 years old. As long as my guardian signs an agreement and guarantees that all live streaming activities are conducted under their supervision, it can be done."

  "Continue."

  Tang Guo lazily leaned back on the sofa, his hands resting on his stomach, gesturing for Jiang Xi to continue.

  "So, the underage issue is clearly no longer an obstacle for Mr. Tang to sign with me." Jiang Xi paused for a moment until Tang Gu showed a hint of impatience, then continued: "I've done my research, and while Mr. Tang's studio is excellent, there's always been one problem - you still owe the internet a sister who can bring in explosive traffic."

  "Mr. Tang, am I right?"

  Tang Gu "pa pa pa" clapped his hands: "Not bad."

  "I have confidence that I can become the big sister of your studio." Jiang Xi pushed forward with her plan, a smile at the corner of her mouth that was both affectionate and confident: "Mr. Tang, why not take a look? Even if you don't sign me, you won't lose anything."

  Polite and courteous, retreating in order to advance, Tang Yu also drew a large pie that was impossible to resist.

  Tang Gu's legs were shaking even more violently, and Lu Hao could see that his brother-in-law was engaged in a fierce ideological struggle.

  Ten seconds. Five seconds. One second.

  Tang Gu took up the plan that Jiang Xi had worked on overnight and read it from start to finish in one glance, becoming more and more astonished as he read.

  This girl is unbeatable, a born media person, and her tactics are simply superb. Moreover, this plan of hers is tailor-made, even if he saw it, it would be useless. If we promote according to this plan, who knows, maybe she's right: creating the number one live streaming queen.

  Tang Gu glanced at his nephew standing quietly beside the sofa, and his excited blood suddenly cooled down.

  Forget it, I want to keep such a good person by my side——

  His nephew is probably done for.

  Jiang Xi instinctively felt that something was off, and this intuition had helped her evade capture countless times in the past year.

  She never thought that in this world, there was still a threshold that no amount of calculation could overcome: human relationships.

  As expected, Tōkō refused, with a perfectly reasonable excuse:

  "Miss Jiang has never run a studio, so she probably doesn't know the difficulties of running one. You can't put all your eggs in one basket; this plan is too aggressive and too risky for us."

  Jiang Xi bit her lip, but at a glance, she knew that things couldn't be turned around. She put the materials in order and put them back into the leather bag, shouldering her backpack and bidding farewell politely.

  "Miss Jiang walks slowly."

  Tang Gu sighed regretfully.

  Looking at his bewildered and confused nephew, this silly child probably doesn't know what his uncle has given up for him.

  Jiang Xi pushed the door halfway, just as a man with gold-rimmed glasses and a secretary-like appearance knocked on the door. "Boss, Mr. Han has arrived."

  "Mr. Han?!"

  A gust of wind blew by, and Tang Gu's plump figure was like a tornado sweeping across the river. She stood unsteadily, almost falling down, when halfway through, she was caught by a strong arm. Jiang Xi noticed the man's beautifully lined biceps, "Thank you."

  She reflexively shook it off.

  "See you again."

  The man's voice was pleasant: "Little angel of the coffee shop."

  Jiang Xi suddenly turned his head and collided with a pair of deep eyes: 30 million?

  She subconsciously glanced at his wrist again, and the man had changed to a new watch, with a starry blue dial and a globe-shaped bezel. At first glance, it looked quite flashy. He was wearing a floral shirt, slim-fitting pants, and the collar of his shirt was casually open, revealing a large expanse of skin - a blatant sexual hint.

  Jiang Xi couldn't help but take another step back.

  "Brother Han!"

  Tang Gu opened his arms and welcomed him, Han Chen took a step back, his feet pointed at Tang Bao's beer belly: "A little further away, this is left for Xiang Xiang's beautiful man."

  "What is this?"

  Han Chen bent down and picked up a piece of paper.

  Jiang Xi only then discovered that the leather bag's zipper was loose, his "ambitious career plan" scattered all over the ground, and he busied himself picking it up.

  Lu Hao also helped pick up together.

  Han Chen glanced over: "Little angel, what have you done?"

  Jiang Xi nodded and took it over.

  Han Chen stretched his waist, "Fatty, Little Angel's appearance is just like when you were trying to get me to invest with you back then."

  Tang Gu was stunned.
