Chapter 19: Cute Xiao Wen From the Bai Family

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

On the 11th of the month, Xiao Wen was rotated to the night shift again.

Their relationship seemed to have become more cordial, but it also seemed to have remained the same.

There was no big breakthrough.

Whether emotionally or physically, it was all there was. Their relationship could only be described as ambiguous, they were not as intimate as a real couple.

They also did not see themselves as a real couple.

They both understood that it would be quite unlikely.

In this era, many people just lived together like this.

It had nothing to do with love. It was just life.

A few days later, Liu Qing finally had the cast on his leg removed at the hospital.

However, his leg was not completely healed yet. He could walk, but his leg could not withstand too much pressure. He could not even walk too fast, let alone run.

Liu Qing did not lie in bed every day nowadays. He did all the rehabilitation exercises that the doctor instructed. He also took all his medicine diligently, so he was recovering well.

It was possible for him to go back to work, but he did not feel like working anymore.

Right now, he was not as tight on cash as he had been before. Out of the 20,000 dollars compensated by the guy who hit him, after deducting the medical expenses, as well as the caregiver fees and salary paid by the company, he still had a few thousand dollars left. There was no need for him to rush back to work.

The company also did not want him to return to work so quickly either.

In any case, his salary was deducted from the 20,000 dollars that the guy who hit him compensated. The company did not have to pay him anything so it did not matter to them if he went to work or not.

Furthermore, he had not fully recovered. The company was also concerned that he would accidentally hurt his leg again at work. If that happened, it would solely be a matter for the company.

They were happy for him to rest for another month before going back to work.

After being idle for so long, Liu Qing discovered for the first time how blissful it was to be able to just muddle through life. He did not have to do anything every day and he had plenty of time. He did not have to worry about being late for work, or being discovered by his superiors while playing with his phone, or not having enough sleep.

He could play games whenever he wanted and sleep whenever he wanted.

Even with only one good leg, he felt that life was fantastic.

Thinking about how he could live like this every day when he became a rich second generation in the future, he looked forward to the future even more.

When he had nothing to do, he would either read web novels or scroll through short videos.

He spent more time watching videos than reading. Every day, he would spend a few hours doing it.

Two years ago, he had created an account on the most popular short video app in the country. His sole purpose for doing that was to look at pretty girls.

However, not long after that, Huo Zhenzhen forcefully deleted the app for him. Her reason was that she did not like him looking at pretty girls other than her. She felt that it was tantamount to being unfaithful to her.

It was only later that Liu Qing realized it was because Huo Zhenzhen had an account on the video app and was using it to flirt with the other person. She was afraid that he would find her account, so she deleted the app from his phone.

After breaking up with Huo Zhenzhen, Liu Qing naturally did not need to care about that ban anymore. He downloaded the video app again and logged back into his account with the username “Golden Brother Bai”. He followed a bunch of beautiful girls in one go.

He could look at whoever he wanted and leave any message he wanted.

He watched both short videos and livestreams.

He had broadband installed so he did not have to worry about data usage. He felt no pressure from scrolling through short videos for a few hours a day.

Sometimes, watching a pretty girl do a livestream for more than an hour was a very pleasant experience.

After losing a tree, although he did not gain the entire forest, he obtained the right to admire the entire forest.

That was worth it.

However, he only watched videos and he never tipped any streamers.

He had not tipped even a single cent.

Xiao Wen despised Liu Qing for what he was doing.

“Out of all things, why do you like internet celebrities? You think they’re beautiful girls, but that’s actually the result of the beautifying tools. Don’t you see that wherever their faces are, the space around them becomes distorted? If I switch on such a powerful beautifying tool, I’ll look even more beautiful than them.”

Liu Qing smiled. “Do you think I don’t know that they’ve been beautified? It’s fine as long as what I see is beautiful. It’s not like I’m going to meet them in real life, so why should I care if they are actually pretty or not? As for you, no matter how pretty you look after being beautified, we meet every day in real life. I can’t deceive myself even if I want to!”

Xiao Wen had to admit he was right. “That’s true. They say distance makes the heart grow fonder. That might not be true in real life, but it does make sense on the Internet.”

Then she asked Liu Qing, “Do you think I can become an internet celebrity if I create an account and beautify myself?”

Liu Qing scoffed. “Can you sing? Can you dance?”

Xiao Wen was unconvinced. “Don’t tell me those girls you watched can sing and dance?”

Liu Qing sneered. “They can flirt. Can you?”

Xiao Wen was even more unconvinced. “Isn’t it just flirting? Who doesn’t know how to do that? Do you think I do nothing with my ex-boyfriends? Let me tell you, if I start, you won’t even be able to catch up!”

“Then give it a try,” Liu Qing said. “There are many pervs online anyway. You might even be able to wrangle a few tips from them.”

“No harm trying,” Xiao Wen said.

She immediately set about doing it. On the same day, she created an account with the username “Cute Xiao Wen from the Bai family”.

She originally wanted her username to be “Cute Xiao Wen” but after a quick search, she found a bunch of people with this name. It had no distinguishing feature.

When she saw that Liu Qing’s username was “Golden Brother Bai”, she intentionally gave herself a CP username to indicate that this Xiao Wen was from Golden Brother Bai’s family.

Then, she asked Liu Qing to help her take more than a hundred photos. She carefully selected nine of them and put them through an intensive beautifying process. Then, she made a short video and posted it.

The first account she followed was Golden Brother Bai. She then snatched Liu Qing’s phone and used his account to follow her.

On the first day, she garnered dozens of followers.

After Liu Qing downloaded the video app again, he was following more than a hundred beautiful girls, but his followers were still in the single digit.

To be precise, he had only one follower and that is Xiao Wen.

There were too many wolves and too little meat. The truth about the online world was that there were too many pervs.

The gender gap was not supposed to be that big. The problem was that the average veteran perv would not be content to only follow one pretty girl. He would follow all the pretty girls he saw.

Therefore, as long as a girl was willing to post her beautified face, she would never lack attention.

Xiao Wen’s first video received hundreds of comments on the first day it was posted. This gave her a false impression that she was already an internet celebrity.

She posted one short video every day. After a few days, she had amassed hundreds of followers.

To be honest, with the beautifying function turned on, Xiao Wen really looked quite stunning and even a little sexy.

Even Liu Qing had to admit that.

If he did not know this girl so well, he would probably rush to woo her online too.
