I Treat You as My Sister, But You Want to be My Wife?!

Chapter 538: Chapter 538 Tea Talks_1

I had no other extravagant hopes; it’s just that these people kept provoking me, so there wasn’t much I could do about it.

My phone vibrated a few times at that moment, and I remembered I had just contacted the other party who hadn’t replied yet. When I checked, I saw several strings of question marks and then, after a short while, a message.

"You must be the woman from the bar, right? I just looked at you, and your profile picture looks a bit familiar, but I can’t remember your name. Why did you add my Penguin? Do you need something from me? I don’t just give away my information easily, and I haven’t set up a separate work account yet, so how did you get my personal contact details?

"Shouldn’t you explain where you got it from?" Shen Dong wasn’t blaming the other person for digging up his contact information; he just wanted to know simply who had leaked his details. He had never mentioned it in front of those people, and if Kang Yue found out about this, he figured she would probably get angry again.

Thinking of that woman made me feel utterly helpless. She’s probably stewing in her room right now, and there’s nothing I can do about it, right? When someone adds me, of course, I have to ask what they want to know. Not discouraged by the fact that the other party didn’t remember her name, Zhang Yue simply sent a voice message.

"Boss, do you still remember me? I was the girl who first greeted you, and although there was a little argument at that time, I’m not sure if my previous apology was heard by you. I’ve added you back now just to say once more, seriously, that I’m sorry for the trouble I caused you; I didn’t mean to cause any problems there.

"I’ll make sure to behave well in the future. Adding you as a friend was just to talk a bit more with the boss because I think you’re incredibly awesome for creating such a new form of entertainment. I believe the world will change because of you.

"I’m very curious about how you thought to create this novelty, so I just added you on Penguin directly. I got the contact from someone else, and please don’t blame that person, boss. It took me a long time to get it, and they were quite reluctant to share it at first."

After saying this, Zhang Yue remembered to tell the other person, after all, it wouldn’t be fair for someone else to get punished because of her. So after saying that, she quietly waited for Shen Dong’s response, thinking he shouldn’t blame her after hearing such words, feeling anxious at the time.

After seeing her message, Shen Dong replied directly: "Good. Study hard here, and I believe with your emotional intelligence, you should be able to make a good amount of money in this place. Once you’ve earned enough, I will teach you other ways to make money. I’m not anyone’s savior; I’m just an ordinary person.

"But I can teach you how to make money on your own. Of course, whether you can learn or not is up to you. I will see who performs well. Those who do will get the chance, so work hard.

"Since you’re the first one who added me, I’ll let you in on this secret ahead of others. Don’t share this with anyone else yet; it’s better if you’re the only one who knows this for now, got it?"

After saying that, Shen Dong started to hesitate about his plan. He had indeed started many initiatives, but many hadn’t turned a profit, and now he was investing in yet another venture. This was very risky, as one should focus on just one thing...

...and his experience was strongest when not divided among different plans, like him, who would impulsively jump on any money-making opportunity. Maybe if he could give up some of these opportunities, he wouldn’t have to work on so many jobs.

He also had to meet with the founder of Luya to discuss some share issues. Maybe by not involving himself too much, he could lessen his burden, though it would mean earning less. That was acceptable too.

Zhang Yue initially just wanted to bridge the gap between them; she had no ulterior motives and hadn’t expected him to share such a big secret. Could it be he was considering mentoring her? She was thrilled to have the boss’s favor, believing it meant she could expect more from him.

I must work even harder. With that, she replied with a cute emoticon and then continued, "Thank you, boss. I will work hard so that you can see my ability; I’m sure you will treat me well then, right?

"Believe me, I am quite talented in this field. Just now, another girl came to ask for your Penguin number, but I didn’t give it out. I was afraid you’d be too busy if I did.

"So I figured I’d take advantage of the situation and add you first, then learn some things from you, getting inside info before the others. You won’t hold it against me for being so selfish, will you? I just don’t want to share with anyone else the information you’ve given me."

Zhang Yue knew precisely how to play innocent; her words were filled with hidden manipulation, leaving no room for anyone to find fault. Even after reading her text, I had to pause for a few seconds. When did I ever give her any inside information? It was just a piece of advice, and I hadn’t really intended for her to go into the streaming business.

We’re still assessing it, and if it doesn’t work out, I don’t plan on getting involved in that area. But we could use the platform and have these female streamers make money for us. Ugh, forget it; it’s too troublesome to explain too much. Whatever I do is my business, and how I inform them is up to me.

I might just lazily reply with an emoticon and then continue eating, unaware that Tang Yuchan had stealthily approached and startled me with her sudden presence.

"Why are you so quiet when you walk? You’ve sneaked up on me and scared the bejeezus out of me. What’s up? Weren’t you happily eating over there? Why run over here? Is it because my food is tastier?"
