External Nemesis

“I don’t even know who he is. Someone just told me to come apologize to you and kowtow to you.”

Dian Bei was now weeping and sniveling.

Lizi felt a little bad watching this: “Fine, I forgive you, but you still have to act in a play with me.”

Act in a play?

I don’t even know how!

I only know how to put on an act.

Fortunately, Dian Bei did not act stupidly, and kept nodding: “Madam, whatever you say goes. Forget acting, if you tell me to climb a mountain of knives or jump into a sea of fire, I'll do it. Please withdraw your supernatural powers.”

“Alright, you can go back first. I’ll have a talk with him about what happened today.”

Although Lizi didn’t know what was going on, she had seen the mysterious boss’s capabilities.

In the office building, Zuo Guai was editing a text message.

“Gan Zhe, that playboy came around again today and even took Lizi away.”

“Now the two of them are in a corner doing who knows what.”

“Lizi came back and she looks pretty happy.”

Beep Beep

Beep Beep

Gan Zhe, who was napping, heard an annoying string of text message notification sounds.

He had been up all night live streaming his games, and had just laid down to sleep when he heard this irritating noise.

He impatiently opened the message, instantly losing all remnants of sleepiness.

“I trust Lizi. She would never do anything with a playboy.”

Seeing Gan Zhe’s response, Zuo Guai didn’t reply anymore.

She just needed to let him know about the incident.

And Gan Zhe, looking at the phone with no further response, fell into thought.

He naturally spoke words of trust in Lizi with his mouth.

But when really faced with this kind of situation, which man wouldn’t have doubts?

If no one intervened, he believed that relying on his three years with Lizi, eventually Lizi would have a change of heart.

He firmly believed that Lizi was just temporarily angry right now.

After some time passes, and he earns some money and takes her out to a meal, everything will be fine again.

Women, you just need to coax them.

They hadn’t encountered this kind of situation before.

As long as he persisted in bringing her breakfast or something, the two of them would make up again.

His love for Lizi was plain for all to see.

Unable to feel at ease, Gan Zhe again did not go online to stream.

After sleeping until the afternoon, he went to Lizi’s company again.

“Lizi, this is a gift I got for you, I hope you like it.”

Gan Zhe took out an exquisitely wrapped box and handed it to Lizi, who had just walked out.

“Gan Zhe, you don’t have to...”

Just as Lizi wanted to refuse, Gan Zhe had already run off.

With no choice, Lizi opened the box and discovered a tube of lipstick inside.

It was a brand she used a lot during her student days.

Now that she had her own economic ability, she no longer used such low-end products.

After thinking about it, Lizi still accepted this gift.

Mainly because Gan Zhe didn't give her a chance to refuse.

Thinking of Gan Zhe's smarmy look just now, Lizi directly went and bought a set of facial cleanser, asking someone to deliver it to Gan Zhe.

She wouldn't accept Gan Zhe's gifts for nothing, not even during their student days.

She kept a clear record of every transaction, paying him back in other ways.

The price could be said to be always equal or more.

“She must still love me. I have to keep at it.”

Looking at the facial cleanser in his hand, Gan Zhe happily thought.

It wasn't for nothing that he had overdrawn his credit to buy Lizi this gift.

That night, Lizi started up her side gig as an escort gamer again.

Thirty thousand a month.

Who wouldn't want such a legitimate job?

It wasn't some kind of dirty deal.

Chatting, accompanying, playing games.

Just three accompaniments.

“Boss, you're truly amazing. That playboy already came to kowtow and apologize to me this morning.”

Lizi happily reported the battle results to the boss.

“Small matter. How about it, is Gan Zhe still bothering you?”

Ye Bufan asked while licking an airdrop.

“Yes, he gave me another tube of lipstick. Didn't even wait for me to refuse before running off.”

Lizi said helplessly.

“Ah, senior Gan Zhe is still pretty infatuated. Big sis Lizi, can't you give him another chance?”

Zhao Xue had never been in a relationship. She felt that such an unrelenting person like Gan Zhe senior was pretty good.

“Uh...infatuated? Maybe...I guess.”

As a man himself, Ye Bufan found some things hard to say outright.

There were some matters that you could only understand after experiencing them yourself.

“The safe zone again, not bad not bad.”

“Yeah, chicken dinner!”

The real life matters were just an interlude. The important thing about escort gaming was still the games.

Due to equipment and safe zone issues, aside from running into the occasional cheater, the rest were victories.

Of course, those cheaters never got to see the next day's sun in the game either.

“Calling it a day, time to sleep.”

Ye Bufan decisively closed the stream and logged off.

Another morning arrived, and Lizi happily came to the company.

Thirty thousand extra per month.

These shifts were especially enjoyable.

“Lizi, you haven't eaten breakfast yet right? Here's one for you.”

After thinking it over, Gan Zhe decided to resume the tradition of delivering breakfast.

If he personally made the long trip to deliver breakfast, it would definitely convey his sincerity.

Not waiting for Lizi's response, Gan Zhe put the breakfast in Lizi's hands and dashed off.

Some matters might be refused if done face-to-face, but once the person was gone, there was nowhere for her to return it.

Sure enough, Lizi helplessly looked at the breakfast in her hands.

She had already eaten!

Fortunately there were others in the company who hadn't eaten breakfast.

Abiding by the principle of not wasting food, Lizi gave it away to them.

Beep Beep Beep

“Don't send breakfast anymore from now on. We're over.”

Looking at the text he finally received after so long, Gan Zhe was elated beyond himself.

After so many days, Lizi finally felt his love and rescued him from her blacklist.

He really had been too cold to her before.

Women need to be pampered.

Ever since they broke up back then, Lizi had already deleted Gan Zhe.

Later, through Gan Zhe’s tireless efforts, he finally annoyed himself into her blacklist.

If not for needing to explain things clearly, Lizi wouldn't have bothered pulling him back out.

Sigh, another good mood for the day ruined.

Lizi sighed helplessly while working.

Livestream Chat

“Wow, amazing. The originally box-dropping Xiaoxue even knows how to play so well.”

“Crap, a cheater.”

“Why fear cheaters? Look, they ran off.”

“Why? Why don't they take a shot, one shot and it'd be a team wipe?”

“Take a shot? Whether that guy gets to see tomorrow's sun is the question.”

“Can anyone explain this? Newbie asking to learn.”

“Fellow newbie here.”

“You two don't know this streamer is known as the cheater terminator? Any cheater daring to attack him gets their account banned, I heard even their ID number gets banned too.”

“That fierce?”

“No way, really?”

“It's true, I can vouch. I'm already banned, now I come to the stream every day, hoping the streamer will give me another chance.”

“Senior, I really wronged you, please unban me, I'll never do it again.”

After days of wilderness survival, Ye Bufan's fame could be said to be known far and wide.

In his presence, cheating did not exist.
