Xiu Gou's Taming Record

"Why are you waiting for me?" Bai Xinran turned and walked upstairs. "There are robberies in the university town?"

"How can that be!" Yu Heng leaned back on the sofa armrest. "You're practically a walking money-printing machine now. If something happens to you, I'll suffer a huge loss."

Bai Xinran stopped on the stairs: "Boss, your concern doesn't sound touching at all."

"So what?" Yu Heng raised an eyebrow. "I was saying I'm afraid that before I can get my hands on you, some bad guy will get his?"

"Tsk! You're a bad person too!" Bai Xinran frowned. "Wait five minutes, it'll be ready soon."

She ran upstairs.

Yu Heng sat back down on the sofa and took out his phone to check it.

There are several unread messages in my WeChat.

Ning Yutong sent a selfie; the background was her dorm room, and she was holding up a pair of white over-the-knee socks with lace trim, captioning it: "Arrived! Super high quality!"

Yu Heng smiled and typed back: "Okay, I'll come over on Saturday."

As they were chatting, Bai Xinran came downstairs.

She had changed into jeans and a sweatshirt, and her hair was tied in a ponytail.

"Let's go," she said, grabbing her backpack from the sofa and putting on her coat. "The dorm building will be locked if it gets any later."

Yu Heng stood up, and the two went out together.

The night breeze was a bit chilly, so Bai Xinran pulled up the hood of her sweatshirt and put her hands in her pockets.

"Yu Heng," she suddenly spoke, "are you really going to make a leather suit for Qin Ya?"

"Otherwise?" Yu Heng nodded. "What's wrong?"

"I just feel," Bai Xinran kicked a pebble on the roadside, "that you care about her quite a bit."

Yu Heng turned to look at her: "What are you saying? Haven't I been quite attentive to you too?"

"How can that be the same?" Bai Xinran pouted. "I was your first anchor, she came later."

Yu Heng chuckled: "What, are you jealous?"

"Who's jealous!" Bai Xinran retorted immediately. "I'm just reminding you not to pour all your resources into newcomers and forget who your cash cow is."

"Don't worry," Yu Heng patted her shoulder, "you'll always be my top choice."

Bai Xinran shrugged, but didn't move away: "Just talk, don't get physical."

"Alright, alright," Yu Heng withdrew his hand, "I'll also allocate some resources to you. When you return after the full moon, I'll cover all the event expenses, ship gifts, cashback, and so on."

"That's good?" Bai Xinran raised an eyebrow. "But it doesn't seem like there's much of it, does it?"

"Tsk, you're quite ungrateful!" Yu Heng squinted. "From now on, I'll pay for all the ship gifts too. It's just what you need to do to start sending them, isn't it?"

"There's no rush, we can talk about it at the end of the month. I've already found a seller on Taobao to make it, it's a standee with the character illustration!" Bai Xinran said.

"Isn't it a bit too ordinary?" Yu Heng thought for a moment and said, "How about this, you go and commission a piece of work, commission some related artwork, I'll reimburse you."

"Really?" Bai Xinran's interest was piqued. "One picture can cost a thousand or eight hundred yuan!"

"Really, let's go!" Yu Heng said.

Compared to what we've earned, this is all small change.

As the two walked into the dormitory area, they occasionally saw couples returning late, walking by embracing and hugging.

Bai Xinran suddenly lowered her voice: "Hey, look over there."

Yu Heng looked in the direction she pointed and saw two people standing under the streetlight.

The boy had his back to them, and his back view looked somewhat familiar.

The girl was looking down, her hand being held by the boy next to her.

"Zhang Yuchen?" Yu Heng narrowed his eyes.

"Yes," Bai Xinran nodded, "That girl is a freshman in our department, I think her name is Lin something..."

Yu Heng raised an eyebrow: "Isn't he pursuing you?"

"Chase my ass," Bai Xinran rolled her eyes. "Cast a wide net and catch more fish."

"Aren't you angry?" Yu Heng asked.

"Why would I be angry?" Bai Xinran asked, bewildered. "I don't like him anyway. Let him pursue whoever he wants, just leave me alone."

"Has he been bothering you lately?" Yu Heng asked with a smile.

"Wrong! This is annoying." Bai Xinran said, frowning. "She sent me another WeChat message today."

Yu Heng turned to look at her: "What did you say?"

"Heh," Bai Xinran pursed her lips, "He said he wants me to be his girlfriend."

"Tsk," Yu Heng laughed, "This guy's got something."

Yu Heng stared at Zhang Yuchen's retreating figure, speechless with astonishment.

While pursuing Bai Xinran, he also flirted with a junior high school girl.

I really didn't realize that this was a wide net casting, or a move to build a harem.

Is this considered someone who shares his views?

However, they are not the same.

Yu Heng believes that women can have many partners, but it's only interesting if they are open and honest.

Using romance as a pretext to build a harem, deceiving one person and keeping secrets from another, gets a bit boring.

Moreover, if things go well, it'll be a heart-pounding hell; if things go wrong and you run into someone like Saionji Sekai, it'll be a heart-stopping crematorium.

"I refused," Bai Xinran said. "I told her I wasn't interested in dating."

"What did he say?"

"He said let's be friends first, and he'd treat me to a movie this weekend, at a private cinema." Bai Xinran sighed. "Does this guy not know what it means to say no?"

"Just pretend you don't understand," Yu Heng shrugged. "You can't pursue a girl without being thick-skinned, can you?"

Bai Xinran glanced at him: "Were you shameless when you were pursuing girls?"

Yu Heng was taken aback for a moment, then grinned: "Me? I don't need to chase after them, the girls always come to me."

"Keep bragging," Bai Xinran rolled her eyes. "I think you're all talk and no action."

"You're absolutely right," Yu Heng chuckled. "I'm really good with words."

Bai Xinran sensed the ambiguity in his words, blushed, and kicked him in the shin: "Get lost!"

The kick wasn't hard. Yu Heng patted his trouser leg and said, "What's your rush? Want to try?"

"Try my ass!" Bai Xinran quickened her pace and walked ahead of him. "I can't be bothered with you."

The two walked to the girls' dormitory building. Bai Xinran stopped and turned around: "Shall I go up?"

"Okay," Yu Heng nodded, "Go to sleep early, you have to do a live broadcast tomorrow."

"Okay," Bai Xinran waved her hand, then turned back at the door. "By the way, you're filming Ning Yutong on Saturday. Do you need my help? I know a little about lighting and stuff."

"You can do this too?" Yu Heng raised an eyebrow.

Bai Xinran nodded: "I learned about it in high school extracurricular activities."

"Good, good, good," Yu Heng pursed his lips, "As expected of Master Jing."

Will his high school still have extracurricular activities?

Does running laps count?

The kind where the toes touch the heels.

Yu Heng thought for a moment: "So you're coming over in the morning? Around eight or nine o'clock? Wait, aren't you staying home Friday night?"

"Oh, right," Bai Xinran gave an OK sign, "Then I'll get up early that day!"

Watching her enter the dormitory building, Yu Heng turned around and walked back.

When Zhang Yuchen and the girl passed by the streetlight, they were gone.

Yu Heng took out his cigarette case, shook out a cigarette, and lit it.

The smoke dispersed in the night breeze.

He went through the recent events in his mind.

In the live stream, Bai Xinran is stable, while Qin Ya is on the rise.

We're about to start working on short videos; Ning Yutong is a promising talent.

The basketball tournament starts next week, so I need to find time to train.

You can get recruitment posters for clubs printed this weekend.

And Qin Lu...

Yu Heng exhaled a smoke ring.

This woman is becoming more and more interesting.
