That made Xu Yi laugh.

If he hadn't been livestreaming, he'd have made this woman feel what it was like to have both parents disown her.

"Old woman, hurry up and get out of the car. Don't make me kick you out with my size-45 shoe."

The white-collar woman looked incredulous. "You're telling me to get out? Believe it or not, I'll give you a bad review."

"Go ahead."

"You, you... You're just going to dump me by the side of the road? You're no kind of man."

"You haven't tried me. How would you know?"

"R-really? Can I try?" The white-collar woman seemed tempted.

"Get out, get out, get out." Xu Yi shuddered.

She already had a boyfriend and was still lusting after my body. What a shameless woman!

This woman either had her nose numbed or it was itching—maybe the anesthetic hadn't kicked in.

Anyone who thinks women are pure should check out the comments on fitness guys' videos on Douyin. They'll see things they never imagined.

"Have your boyfriend come pick you up. I don't have time to drive you around, Chun Zhu, while you show off your superiority every chance you get."

Rejected, the white-collar woman snapped, "Do you know who my boyfriend is?"

"Your owner?"

"Just you wait. I'm calling your boyfriend right now. You're dead."

The white-collar woman twisted the story around on the phone until the Streamer Friends were utterly confused.

At the end, all they heard was a furious roar from the other end: "What? You want that guy to answer the phone!"

"Hmph, my boyfriend wants to talk to you. Bet you regret it now," the white-collar woman said smugly.

Xu Yi smiled calmly. The two of them were a pair of dicks. When it came to swearing, he'd never backed down from anyone.

He took the phone. Just as he was about to turn off the livestream, the young man on the other end said obsequiously, "Bro, there were a lot of people around just now. Let me apologize."

"???"

Come on, man. If you're this decent, how am I supposed to insult you?

"Bro, my girlfriend's just a shrew. Don't take her too seriously. She's not right in the head."

The white-collar woman stood frozen, her expression blank. She couldn't believe those words had come from her boyfriend.

Xu Yi raised an eyebrow and teased him. "Oh? What's wrong with her?"

"She watches Yang Li, Fu Shou'er, Mai Lin... all those videos about female empowerment every day."

"Yeah, that's definitely not normal."

Mystery solved. Mom always told me not to argue with idiots.

The man on the other end continued, "Bro, you sound pretty young. Full of energy. Want to take an order?"

"I take everything except Genshin Impact."

"Uh... Could you arrange a car accident and get her killed? We can split the insurance money."

That left Xu Yi speechless.

Come on, man. That's not the kind of energy I meant!

"That's illegal, brother," Xu Yi reminded him.

"Who cares? Nobody will find out. Remember to keep it secret."

Right, our ten thousand Streamer Friends will all keep it secret for you.

I was starting to feel a little sorry for this white-collar woman.

Just wondering, what should you do with a 105-jin pig after slaughtering it?

Sometimes I really want to call the police.

"Brother, why do you want to kill her so badly?" Xu Yi asked.

The man on the other end asked in return, "Were you just thinking about killing her?"

"I was."

"Well, there you go."

What a profound answer...

"Brother, do you know what I've been through? That bitch is like betel nut with a conch flavor. What do you think? You taking the job?"

Xu Yi turned to look at the white-collar woman. "Your boyfriend wants to know if I'll take the job."

The white-collar woman said nothing. She just kept crying and racking up Emotion Points.

Her tears mixed with the white powder on her face, turning to rice paste. It looked downright eerie. Even a female ghost wouldn't be this scary.

"Ah!"

The white-collar woman suddenly shrieked, snatched the phone, and screamed through her tears, "Liu Ang, I loved you with all my heart, and you want me dead? I'm calling the police! You scumbag, go to hell!"

The man on the other end sounded nervous. "Brother, did she hear what I just said?"

"She did."

"But... how could she hear us?"

"She had the speaker on."

"Brother, are you taking the job? The one to silence her."

Xu Yi: "..."

"I can't silence her. I'm livestreaming. Damn, that's a big job. I can't afford it."

Wait, I was just watching a livestream, and now someone wants to kill me?

Officer, I'm scared...

Oi! Are you trying to hog all the attention for yourself?

Xu Yi was speechless. Sure enough, people who shared a bed couldn't be too different. This couple was both out of their minds.

Of course, the netizens weren't much better.

After the call ended, the woman leaned against the car window and cried like a flower in the rain.

Xu Yi glanced at the rearview mirror, looking concerned. "Hey, don't lean against the window."

"My name isn't 'hey'~"

"Driver, you don't have to feel sorry for me. Just let me cry for a while."

"Don't get the window dirty. It's covered in white powder, and it's a pain to clean."

"I'm even sadder now. Are you a demon?"

"Pfft... Sorry, I wasn't laughing at you."

The woman cried even louder and refused to get out.

Xu Yi sighed and had no choice but to hit the gas and drive her to her destination.

"Driver, why do I always end up with scumbags?"

"Because you're betel nut with a conch flavor."

"Driver, am I ugly?"

Xu Yi flashed a sunny, boy-next-door smile. "Not at all. You'd be perfect for a leading role."

The woman lifted her head and managed a faint smile. "Really? What kind of leading role?"

"Zombie Woman Falls in Love with Godzilla."

"Couldn't you just comfort me?"

"Don't worry. You won't have to deal with many more scumbags."

"Why?"

"You're already in your thirties. You won't meet many more men."

The white-collar woman's Emotion Points never stopped going up the whole way.

She was almost outdoing Yu Xue.

From now on, she'd be Xu Yi's Top Supporter.

"We're here. Hurry up and get out."

The white-collar woman checked her phone, then looked around.

"This isn't my destination."

"I followed the navigation. It can't be wrong."

"I entered the wrong address. Take me to the Junma Sales Center."

Xu Yi rolled his eyes at her. "Get out. Do you want me to make sure your ex-boyfriend gets that insurance money?"

Negative Emotion Points +100

"I can pay you extra."

Xu Yi immediately stepped on the gas. "Finally, you've done something decent."

The white-collar woman lowered her head and said nothing.

Oh? No Emotion Points this time.

Looks like her ability to take a beating has improved.

But why did the Junma Sales Center sound familiar?

Xu Yi slapped the steering wheel and remembered... It was the gift the adorable Huang Meimei wanted to give him.

Xu Yi raised an eyebrow and asked, "Do you work there?"

"That's right. I'm a senior executive there. Jealous?"

Fine, fine. If you're still with the company tomorrow, you've earned this. (Thumbs up.)

Xu Yi shook his head. "Someone bought the company and wanted to give it to me, but I wasn't interested.

After all, a man should have a career of his own."
