Chapter Vol. 1 Ch. 52.1
“It’s already eight in the evening...” Ning Chu sat on the roadside flower bed, exhausted and dejected, his head hanging low. “Why is it that no one pays attention to me?”
Street promotions weren’t as simple as he had imagined. It seemed like he just needed to get passersby to download and register an app, but in reality, no one wanted to bother with him. Today, Wen Yang completed most of the tasks.
It wasn’t that Wen Yang was particularly eloquent or experienced, but as the main character, he was naturally a charming sight. Just by standing there, several young and pretty girls eagerly gathered around him. After a few minutes of not paying attention to Wen Yang, Ning Chu turned to see two more girls by his side.
He sighed heavily, slowly getting up to approach them, just in time to hear one of the girls excitedly ask, “If I register and download, can you add me as a friend?”
“Yeah, yeah, if you add us as friends, we’ll download it!”
Wen Yang kept shaking his head, but he couldn’t fend off the enthusiastic girls until Ning Chu’s voice came from behind, “No!”
“If you want to download, just scan the code and do it. If not, leave and stop blocking the way!”
Not only did he have to complete the street promotion task, but he also had to ensure Wen Yang wouldn’t be swayed by enthusiastic girls... Why hadn’t he thought of this from the beginning?@@@@
“He has a girlfriend...”
“Turns out he likes flat chests.”
“A youth hostel...” After a moment’s hesitation, Ning Chu shook his head and refused, “No.”
“Then will you go back first?”
Apparently, he felt a bit rejected.
Ning Chu, pressing his lips together, also didn’t feel comfortable leaving Wen Yang alone. He knew if he was more assertive, Wen Yang would probably go along with his idea, but being so controlling, like a parent, could easily provoke Wen Yang’s resentment. If he was truly hated, stopping the development of the plot in the future would be a fool’s dream.
After some memory surfing, there seems to be no plot line where Wen Yang is doing it in a youth hostel or hotel scenes in the story.
“Fine.” Ning Chu reluctantly agreed, picking up the flyers and heading towards the pedestrians again.
The city’s buses stopped running promptly at ten. After finishing the day’s work, Ning Chu and Wen Yang ran to the bus stop, just in time to see the taillights of the last bus disappearing down the road.
“Well, we have to stay at a hotel.” Wen Yang wasn’t disappointed, in fact, he seemed quite happy. He instinctively put his arm around Ning Chu’s shoulder, smiling as he asked, “How about we find a snack street to explore? We earned over six hundred together today!”
Ning Chu stiffened, his eyes quickly glancing at the arm on his shoulder, feeling uncomfortable and struggling slightly. “Just do what you want, most of the money was earned by you, I was just dragging you down.”
“By the way, I haven’t properly thanked you for last night. Tonight, I’m treating you to everything!” Feeling wealthy, Wen Yang immediately took on the demeanor of a tycoon. He had come out to earn money from part-time jobs to improve his life, and now that he had money, he wanted to spend it immediately.
