As Liu Bai himself said, with her talent she could become an overnight sensation. So, is being "stunning enough" a problem for her?

As for how long it will take to become an overnight sensation... she's only twenty-four, is time really a problem for her at that age?

Like I just said, at worst I can sing and open a clothing store at the same time. I'm not going to starve to death, am I?

Fashion design is at least my second best hobby.

"Sigh, I have a feeling you're just here to mess with me."

Eden looked at Liu Bai's smiling face and couldn't help but sigh, although he knew that this guy was just using reverse psychology...

Liu Bai shook his head upon hearing this. "No, I'm inviting you to dinner."

Chapter 308 Super Angel Eden-chan

"As expected, it didn't work out..."

Eden walked out of the company building, looking slightly tired.

"You're incredibly accurate when it comes to these things, so accurate it's heartbreaking. If possible, I really wish you could solve these problems."

Eden smoothed his hair, and although he said that, his expression remained calm.

"I'm sorry, I personally have a phobia of interviews... although it happened 24 years ago."

"Oh? When I was born? Before you were born?"

A hint of curiosity appeared on Eden's face.

"It wasn't exactly during his lifetime... Anyway, it was a pretty upsetting thing."

"Fine, if you don't want to talk about it, then don't."

Eden was quite easygoing—or rather, he didn't have much curiosity to begin with.

"But this interview was a complete failure. Maybe I should prepare to sing and sell clothes at the same time... Fortunately, I still have some savings, which should be enough to last for a long time."

On the bright side, doing two things you enjoy at the same time doesn't seem so bad.

Eden had a strange thought.

Anyway, her life plan was to graduate, debut, become a pop superstar, retire, switch to fashion design, and spend her days with Liu Bai.

Does this mean I've reached the finish line in one step?

—Yeah, right!

That's at least a leap of twenty years! How can it be done in such a "step"?

"Well... there's no need to be so realistic all at once. Hmm... if I make a sacrifice, maybe I can bring Eden an investment—an investment that will allow you to start your own business."

"Oh? You know any successful people like that?"

Eden looked slightly surprised.

Although the concept of "starting one's own business" can be broad or narrow, the fact that Liu Bai dared to bring it up with him means that it is at least something that can be discussed openly.

Was this someone Liu Bai knew "before his death"?

Eden silently imagined a white-haired old man with gold-rimmed glasses, wearing an expensive suit, meticulous and exuding the aura of a successful person.

After all, it's a ghost's social circle, so it doesn't seem like it's unacceptable for the other person to be a little older, right?

"A successful person... I guess I could be considered one?"

Liu Bai hesitated slightly.

He always felt that Eden seemed to have misunderstood something.

However, Mobius was indeed a successful person in the conventional sense.

Yes, that's right. The successful person Liu Bai thought of was Mobius. Judging from the timeline, Mobius is now Moth Chasers to Fire in scientific research, especially in biology.

Although Mobius was at the headquarters of the Moth Chasers to Fire, Liu Bai had no shortage of means to contact Mobius.

"What do you mean by 'sacrifice'? Are you two enemies? Or do you owe him a favor?" Eden sensed that Liu Bai's expression and tone seemed a bit strange.

"Hmm... how should I put it, it's more... more complicated?"

Liu Bai hesitated for two reasons.

One is the system, or rather the world line. If I do this, it is very likely to trigger the simulation's adjustment mechanism. After all, if we make contact now, it will definitely conflict with other simulations.

Secondly... taking Eden to find Mobius... doesn't that kind of behavior give off a scumbag vibe?

My husband, who has been missing for several years, brought a woman he didn't know to my door, and the first thing he did was talk about money...

Tsk, isn't this just a total scumbag?

"More complicated?"

Seeing Liu Bai's hesitant expression, Eden's expression suddenly became subtle.

"Well... let's forget about it. There's no need to make things difficult for me."

(Could it be his wife or daughter?)

Eden's woman's intuition sounded an alarm for her.

Eden couldn't think of any other relationship besides these two that could put Liu Bai in a difficult position.

Besides, with Liu Bai's looks, it would be strange if he didn't recognize any other women... After all, Liu Bai is practically a golden man...

"Let's go back to our rented apartment and discuss what to do next."

Although Eden felt a pang of regret, he maintained a calm expression on the surface.

"Trying to build up popularity by performing some charity shows is also a good option."

"Since you put it that way, then I have no objection."

Liu Bai breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Eden's explanation.

After all, meeting Mobius during this period was quite a stressful experience.

Seeing Liu Bai's relieved expression, Eden felt a mix of emotions.

Is meeting that person such a stressful thing?

Eden hesitated for a moment before speaking again, "By the way Liu Bai, you just mentioned starting your own business, didn't you?"

"Hmm, what's wrong?"

"I think this is a great idea. I'll be the singer, Liu Bai, you can be my manager. What do you say?"

"Broker..."

"Compared to humbly joining those star companies and partnering with agents I don't know, I think it's better to partner with you."

After Eden finished speaking, he immediately felt that his suggestion was brilliant.

"I must state in advance that I have no experience as an agent or in the development of idols."

"But aren't you very good at taking care of people?"

Eden smiled; she knew the matter was settled after hearing Liu Bai's reply.

"To put it another way, I'll sing, and you'll be my babysitter, how about that?"

"... If you put it that way, I'll have more confidence."

Isn't this just taking care of a child? Merely taking care of a kid... Are you underestimating the value of me personally raising Mobius into a great scientist?

—When it comes to raising kids, the person Liu Bai can boast about the most is Mobius.

They really started from scratch and worked their way up. Although part of the reason was that Mobius was quite intelligent, Liu Bai also deserves a lot of credit.

Others, such as Bronya and Mei, also had children, but their conditions were much better than Mobius's; the difficulty level was on a completely different level.

"Well, since you're asking me to be your agent, Eden, why don't you try live streaming?"

Liu Bai immediately offered advice from the perspective of an agent.

"Live streaming?"

Eden looked somewhat puzzled, as Eden had limited exposure to the internet due to his family's circumstances.

"It's about becoming an idol on the internet." Liu Bai was very interested in this.

Okay, although Liu Bai said he had no experience in idol training or had never played similar games, once he took on the role of a manager, Liu Bai immediately understood why these kinds of games were so popular in his previous life.

In other words, in simulation games, the higher the achievement of the character you raise, the greater your sense of accomplishment.

"Then what do we need to do? For example?"

"For example, how about choosing a screen name for yourself—like 'Super Angel Eden-chan' or something?"

"Ha?"

"Her full name is 'The Ultra Supreme Most Beautiful Angel Eden-chan'."

"Waaah..."

Chapter 309 Going All Out

"S-Do you really want to say something as embarrassing as 'the Ultra Supreme Most Beautiful Angel Eden-chan'...?"

Eden covered his face at home, peeking through his fingers at the computer that was running automatically in front of him.

Although it was quite pleasing to hear those words come from Liu Bai's mouth, for him to refer to himself as such... that was just too embarrassing!

This level of shame is completely unacceptable!

Will this become a dark history of my future?

Who knows, future reports might include something like, "The legendary singer, Miss Eden, debuted as an online streamer in her youth under the name 'The Ultra Supreme Most Beautiful Angel Eden-chan'..."

I simply cannot accept this statement!

This is completely contrary to my goals! How am I supposed to face people after this?

Thinking of this, Eden immediately got up and slammed the computer down.

"Hey, be gentle with your computer!"

Liu Bai floated out of the computer.

"Eden, what's wrong with you now?"

"I... um..."

Eden hesitated as he looked at Liu Bai, who appeared on the computer screen.

After all, Liu Bai had been busy helping me, and I was only in this situation because of my own fault. Wouldn't it be inappropriate to make demands on Liu Bai now?

"... It's nothing, I just wanted to show you how my opening remarks were."

Eden hesitated for a moment before changing his mind.

"Tell me about it?"

"Ha, hello?~ This is the most, most, most beautiful... woo..."

Eden covered his face and sat down again.

No, I'm already too embarrassed to say these words, let alone in front of Liu Bai.

Although she and Liu Bai were very close, they couldn't bring themselves to say it!

"Isn't this a complete failure?" Liu Bai complained.

It's not easy to see the usually composed Eden showing such a shy demeanor.

"No, it's okay, I can just have a drink before the live stream tonight..."

Eden said he was willing to go all out for Liu Bai.

After downing three bottles of wine, Eden refused to believe that a mere live stream could stump him!

"You wouldn't be able to appear on camera at all then."

Liu Bai complained.

The red-haired girls I know all have terrible drinking habits, one after another.
