Chapter 68: A Surprise or a Shock?
"Ukiyo-e Dream" x10.

"Nine Heavens Phoenix Cry" x10.

……

One after another, a new round of special effects rained down in the live stream room, still the max-level limited edition.

Its popularity skyrocketed.

However, Han Ziyang's career path is not very attractive to casual fans. Even with the help of popularity rankings, he has not been able to recover even half of his previous level.

"It's okay, sister." After the broadcast ended, Han Ziyang heard her thoughts and comforted her, "Didn't I tell you, even if I don't broadcast, I can still live a good life?"

Shen Zhaoyi was both amused and exasperated.

Why did I have to run into someone as unambitious as you?

"Hehe." Han Ziyang laughed carefree. "Not ambitious, just living a stable life for now~"

While watching the live stream, Shen Zhaoyi was sprawled on the sofa, and Xu Meng came over to watch for a while.

She heard the streamer call her boss "sister," but the voice didn't match the one in the previous video.

I silently counted in my mind, and this is the third one already!
Amazing!
However, she knew nothing about games, and after watching for a while, she felt a little dizzy, so she slipped away to the kitchen to prepare the food.

Shen Zhaoyi specifically requested hot pot for dinner, so she had to arrange all the ingredients on plates one by one.

The red oil base had just been stir-fried when someone came over, drawn by the aroma.

This smells amazing!

After finally setting everything on the table, Shen Zhaoyi couldn't wait to start cooking the meat slices.

After calming her stomach, she stopped to take a picture of Su Ye and send it to him, just to tempt him a little.

The result was a similar image—

It's also hot pot with side dishes.

There were just a few extra sets of bowls and chopsticks, so it looked like they were having a meal together.

[That's unusual, you're leaving get off work so early today?]

Su Ye replied: 【Tomorrow is May Day.】

That makes sense, but Shen Zhaoyi still had some doubts.

What do we do when everyone's on holiday and "people" from the funeral home come to visit?

Are you rushing back to work overtime again?
No need, there are designated people on duty, I can rest for five whole days.

Shen Zhaoyi bit the tip of her chopsticks, thinking to herself that this workplace was actually quite nice.

But what should we do during this short holiday?
When asked about this, Su Ye simply told her to eat well first and they could talk about it when they got back.

In a hotpot restaurant.

After receiving the emoji from Shen Zhaoyi, Su Ye put his phone back on the table.

A colleague jokingly asked, "Why are you always on your phone lately, more focused than on work? Have you fallen in love?"

The others, upon hearing this, also cast gossipy glances their way.

This is Su Ye, who is known as the "beauty of the hall".

Who had the guts and courage to take him down?
Ignoring the winks and jeers from the crowd, Su Ye said, "That's not true."

The steaming mist blurred his expression, but the joy in his eyes betrayed his true feelings.

When Shen Zhaoyi returned home after the dinner party, she hadn't finished eating yet.

After Xu Meng came here, she gradually became much more cheerful. When she talks about something she's interested in, she becomes like a chatterbox.

When two girls get together, they can cook hot pot, watch TV dramas, and gossip, and the conversation can go on for ages.

The battle was finally over, but the voice chat room had already started working.

We still haven't been able to discuss the arrangements for the short holiday.

However, Shen Zhaoyi herself had some thoughts.

She used to live frugally when she was working, and she only saved money for travel, but now she doesn't lack money at all.

Still a free agent.

For the past month or so, I've spent most of my time on my little phone, even though it's really fun.

But our land is so beautiful, we can't let it go to waste.

With her account logged into the voice chat room and nothing else to do, Shen Zhaoyi opened a certain app and started browsing travel guides. She had no destination in mind; she just wanted to try her luck with blind boxes.

However, after scrolling for a while, she realized—

It's May Day!

It's crowded outside, why bother going to join the fun?
It's better to wait until this period is over before considering a trip.

At 11 p.m., the two talked about this topic on the phone.

Shen Zhaoyi sighed and voiced her thoughts: "I have travel plans, but the thought of crowds everywhere makes me reluctant to go."

“Indeed, I reckon some people have already set off today,” Su Ye agreed.

"And you?" Shen Zhaoyi asked in return, "You're usually so busy, do you have any other plans for the next few days?"

"I'm driving back to my hometown early tomorrow morning. I haven't seen my parents in a long time."

"Huh? Aren't you afraid of traffic jams on the way?"

“It’s just a small county town.” Su Ye smiled, his tone tinged with nostalgia. “There are one or two small tourist attractions, but there aren’t many out-of-town tourists who actively go there.”

Hearing him say that, Shen Zhaoyi's thoughts, which had just been suppressed, started to stir again.

Instead of crowding into major tourist attractions, you can explore smaller, less crowded places!
You can experience the local culture and local life.

She first looked up Su Ye's hometown, where there are distinctive Hakka walled villages and an ancient town, full of local life.

It's a good place to go.

And just a few days ago I was thinking about buying him a house, so I can take this opportunity to do it all at once.

While spending a large sum of money in an instant, you can also earn a 1.6x cashback.

Traveling and making money can be considered a win-win situation.

Simply perfect!
She checked the route from here; it wasn't too complicated, requiring only one transfer and taking no more than five hours in total.

Thanks to the convenience brought by the progress of the times.

After booking the tickets, Shen Zhaoyi didn't tell Su Ye about the plan yet, intending to give him a surprise later.

It could also be from being frightened.

Although meeting up wasn't part of the original plan, since we were already here, it would be a shame not to take a look.

Before going to bed, she sent a message to Xu Meng.

I'm going out of town for the May Day holiday, so I'm giving you time off. I'll let you know when I get back~

After saying that, he casually sent a red envelope.

After all, it's Labor Day, and Xu Meng has been working hard cooking and doing housework every day for the past two weeks.

This is the reward she deserves.

With something on her mind, Shen Zhaoyi was naturally too excited to sleep. Although she barely turned over, Su Ye could still tell.

There was a moment of silence on the other end, then the computer accompaniment suddenly started playing without warning.

"Huh? What's wrong?"

Shen Zhaoyi turned her head and looked at her phone with a puzzled expression.

Su Ye's voice came through: "It's nothing, I just wanted to sing a little longer, you go to sleep first."

One song after another, all of them are very soothing, not abrupt, and very relaxing.

Before her mind began to cloud over, Shen Zhaoyi understood his intention.

When I woke up the next day, the phone was hung up on early in the morning because I had to drive.

Looking at the records, it was only a little past seven o'clock, and Su Ye had already set off.

They're probably almost at his old home by now.

After Xu Meng took the money, she wished her a good time and reminded her that the stores were delivering things today, asking if she needed to come over again.

Fortunately, Shen Zhaoyi had a good memory; she had genuinely forgotten about it.

【Xiaomeng, my flight is at noon, I definitely won't make it. Could you please do me a favor?】

Xu Meng immediately agreed to her request.

Salary is the biggest motivation!
