156. Shark Homewear
Lu Ban didn't quite understand why Qin Tiantian's first thought was to come to his house to stay.
Do they think they're easy to bully?
After thinking about it, he realized that, based on how this woman usually slacked off during her live streams, it was more likely that she was just too lazy to go too far.
It's not a big problem.
Lu Ban's home is now in a beautiful environment with stunning scenery, and there are many people around, making it lively and bustling. Qin Tiantian is not an exception.
In the afternoon, Lu Ban heard the doorbell ring and went to the door.
He glanced through the cat's eyes and confirmed it was indeed Qin Tiantian.
The weather had turned cold in late October, and even the male hairy crabs were ready to be eaten. Qin Tiantian didn't continue her usual style of flip-flops and short-sleeved T-shirts, but instead wore a set of pajamas.
"You came in your pajamas?"
Lu Ban looked Qin Tiantian up and down.
She was wearing a shark-themed two-piece pajama set with a hood, which made her look like a shark when she wore it. Coupled with the shark-shaped pillow she was holding, it was hard not to think that she had some special interest in sharks.
"What pajamas? These are loungewear! I'm wearing something underneath!"
Qin Tiantian pulled down her collar, revealing a T-shirt underneath and an empty flight deck.
"Oh."
Wow, you've renovated your house! The style is completely different now!
Qin Tiantian walked into the room, looked around, and quickly focused her gaze on the mirror.
"This mirror isn't good enough. I should have a tall, narrow mirror, so I can look thinner."
She made a comment.
"If you lose any more weight, you'll turn into a steel plate!"
Lu Ban scoffed.
"Get out!"
Qin Tiantian placed the cushion on the sofa and sat down next to it, sinking into it like an old man sprawling on the sofa.
"This feels so good! If I ever have a house, I want to get a sofa this soft!"
"Wow, you even have a new game console! These are super expensive now, they're all scalpers!"
"This TV is 77 inches? No way, I want to see how it looks."
She was like a primary school student entering a science museum, full of curiosity.
Looking at Qin Tiantian, who is now like a primary school student both physically and mentally, Lu Ban only gave one reminder.
"My friend really likes your shark pillow."
"?"
Qin Tiantian was taken aback and looked at the shark-shaped pillow next to her.
It seems the position has changed slightly compared to before?
"Are your family's friends still alive?"
Qin Tiantian recalled her previous experience at Lu Ban's house.
Although it looks scary, it actually is quite scary.
However, as long as Lu Ban is there, there is no danger.
"Yes, just remember not to look in the mirror for too long. Hmm, they've gotten used to you by now, except for two new ones. But they're shy, so you probably won't see them."
Lu Ban spoke the truth.
"."
Qin Tiantian began to seriously consider whether she should go back to the rented room where the sewer had exploded and she couldn't shower or use the toilet.
But we've already come all this way, it would be a huge loss to go back now.
"You can play games in the living room. I bought several of the new ones that were recently released, but I haven't had time to play them yet. You can stream if you want. I'm going to work now, and I'll call you for dinner."
Lu Ban gave a few instructions and then went back to his room to continue working.
The sound of a game soon filled the living room. Qin Tiantian seemed to be live-streaming on her phone, and you could occasionally hear notifications like "XX yuan received via Alipay." By the end of the afternoon, including the tips Qin Tiantian gave thanks for, Captain, it seemed to have reached a little over a thousand yuan.
Based on this calculation, the monthly income is tens of thousands.
Those viewers who gave tips had never even seen Qin Tiantian's face.
Virtual live streamers are making a fortune!
Lu Ban couldn't help but sigh.
He was still working when he suddenly felt a gaze upon him.
Turning around, I saw Qin Tiantian, dressed in a shark-themed loungewear, hiding by the door, peering inside like a cat secretly observing someone preparing to do something naughty.
"If you're sleepy, you can sleep on the sofa."
Lu Ban said something, thinking that Qin Tiantian wanted to sleep.
What are you doing?
Seeing this, Qin Tiantian leaned closer and saw Lu Ban's work page.
"Work."
Lu Ban said.
He now has two main computers. One is a dedicated machine for various professional software and editing, and the monitor is the one with the best parameters such as minimal color difference and resolution.
The other one is for casually watching videos and playing games.
Is it a new movie?
Qin Tiantian was very surprised.
"Yes, it's scheduled to be screened at the Yannan University Student Film Festival next month."
Lu Ban stopped what he was doing and looked at Qin Tiantian.
"Next month??? Is that enough time???"
Qin Tiantian was taken aback, then took a half step back.
It seems she really hasn't been paying much attention to movie news.
After all, she's the kind of woman who can play Apex Legends all night long, so movies and such things might be a bit too much for Qin Tiantian to be into.
"Pretty much, just right."
Lu Ban glanced at Qin Tiantian again.
"I've finished the first half. What do you think of the result?"
"Okay, huh?"
Qin Tiantian instinctively agreed, how could she not take advantage of such a good deal? But then she thought, speaking of Lu Ban's movies, aren't they all horror movies?
To say nothing of the distant past, there was that recent online movie that Qin Tiantian couldn't bear to watch any longer than halfway through. The immersive and empathetic horror was simply torture to watch alone.
Of course, Qin Tiantian recommended the movie to all her relatives and friends afterwards; she was always the most enthusiastic about this kind of thing!
Is your new movie scary?
"It's not scary, it's mainly suspenseful, and it might be a bit mind-bending."
Lu Ban was very serious.
"Oh oh!"
Qin Tiantian didn't completely trust Lu Ban either. She knew very well that this man's concept of terror was slightly different from that of ordinary people. She prepared herself mentally, sat down in the chair, and pressed the play button.
The movie begins differently from "Hyakunin Isshu". Lu Ban is working in front of his computer when he receives a package. He opens the package while answering a phone call. Inside are several cassette tapes.
Compared to the previous videos where the characters were immediately in danger and the pace was fast, this movie has a more relaxed pace. From the opening clips, you can see Lu Ban's profession, work situation, and even get a glimpse of his personality. Then, the phone conversation explains the background of the story and the commission, while the scene shows Lu Ban opening the package and taking out the cassette tape, which provides the main plot without being boring.
In the movie, Lu Ban takes out one of the cassette tapes, puts it into the tape recorder, and presses the play button.
The shot only focuses on the recorder and the hand, creating a mysterious and eerie feeling.
"Today we are conducting the initial planning work for the demolition and relocation."
As soon as the voice from the tape recorder came out, Qin Tiantian immediately felt a little guilty and her scalp tingled. This incredibly realistic narrative style immediately reminded her of some less-than-ideal scenes from other movies.
She sat up straight, ready to cover her eyes at any moment, and carefully observed the scene.
