I just want to sell products, but you're forcing me to perform talents.

Chapter 448 Public Enemy of Men

Upon arriving at the long-awaited artist library, Lin Xiaoyu and Li Xiaoxiao let out a soft gasp. They had thought there wouldn't be many people here after seeing Wang Feifei's strong aversion to reading.

Upon entering, I discovered that there were actually more than a dozen people quietly reading in the library.

Wang Feifei's smile was a little stiff. You guys have never been this hardworking before.

Oh, I remember now, it's almost the end of the month!

These guys are having extra lessons!

Two hours of study time per week, with an assessment at the end of the month that will affect your salary!

Thinking of this, Wang Feifei suddenly froze.

This week, I spent two hours reading, but it seems like I didn't do even a single minute of it.

And this week, Saturday is the end of the month.

There's so much work to do at the end of the month—reports to submit, performance reviews to be given…

Before the end of the month, including today, Brother Xian will have two big live streams.

Wang Feifei wanted to cry. My afternoon nap!

Lin Xiaoyu and Li Xiaoxiao had no idea what Wang Feifei was thinking. They felt as if they had entered a magical bookstore, with a design and decorations that gave off a feeling of being in a fantasy novel.

The two walked to the tall bookshelf and randomly picked out a few books.

Business Warfare

Consumer Psychology

New Media Practical Guide

The Secret History of the Tang Dynasty

……

Books of all kinds seem to coexist here.

Seeing everyone reading quietly, the two of them also chose a book that interested them and found a corner to sit down.

To their surprise, Wang Feifei also took a book and sat down next to them.

"Isn't Feifei going to take a nap?"

Lin Xiaoyu asked in a low voice.

"I suddenly feel like looking at a cooking guide for a while and studying some recipes."

Wang Feifei held up the book "Modern Tang Dynasty Dishes" in her hand, indicating that she really wanted to read it.

Li Xiaoxiao couldn't help but mutter to herself, "As expected of Brother Xian's library, it even has recipes."

Wang Feifei pretended not to hear the sycophantic remarks of this die-hard fan.

The three of them sat down together to read, and the soft sound of turning pages filled the library. In this atmosphere, everyone's movements seemed to become much lighter.

Wang Feifei read for a while, but then she couldn't concentrate anymore. She was a poor student when she was in school; it would be better to let her watch short videos than read a book.

Seeing that Lin Xiaoyu and Li Xiaoxiao were watching with great interest, she walked to the experience store in front of her out of boredom and ordered a milk tea for each of the three of them.

After watching Wang Feifei leave, Lin Xiaoyu took out her phone and typed a string of words to send to her sister-in-law.

Sister-in-law, look where we are!

The reply came instantly.

[Holy crap, this is Qiuye's live streaming base? Xiaoyu, you actually went here? Ahhh, why didn't you take me with you?]

Lin Xiaoyu proudly showed off.

[I've also been invited by Brother Xian to be a guest on tonight's live stream, so remember to watch!]

Lin Xiaoyu's sister-in-law was so jealous she was going crazy.

"Then wouldn't you be able to get up close and personal with Brother Xian?"

Lin Xiaoyu's brother, who was playing on his phone nearby, noticed something was wrong, leaned over to take a look, and his face immediately darkened: "She went to Ye Xian's live streaming base?"

"What's wrong?"

Lin Xiaoyu's sister-in-law was filled with jealousy: "I really want to go too! Why did Brother Xian invite her but not me? I'm a die-hard fan of the late-night snack group!"

Lin Xiaoyu's brother snorted coldly, turned over and continued playing his game. After playing for a while, he couldn't help but open his Kuaishou app, scroll to the MV of Ye Xian's latest short video "The Promise", and post a comment.

[Peeing Three Feet in the Wind: This is utter nonsense about the three-part love story; it's just for fooling young girls.]

Lin Xiaoyu's sister-in-law, who was chatting with Lin Xiaoyu, turned around when she heard Lin Xiaoyu's brother playing "The Promise," and laughed, "Oh dear, aren't you always making fun of me for listening to Brother Xian's songs? Aren't you listening to them yourself?"

Lin Xiaoyu's brother snorted, "I wanted to watch 'Repairing Donkey Hoofs,' but as soon as I opened Kuaishou (a Chinese audio streaming platform), this was the first thing they showed me. What can I do?"

Lin Xiaoyu's sister-in-law said proudly, "Of course! Xian Ge's new short video is a music video about 'The Promise.' It was originally planned to be released after 'The First Time,' but it was delayed by 'The Dream Chaser.'"

Seeing that Lin Xiaoyu's brother had swiped away "The Promise," Lin Xiaoyu's sister-in-law rolled her eyes at him, turned on her Kuaishou app, and watched the short video of "The Promise" again.

New video, I haven't had enough yet.

At the beginning of the video, Ye Xian sat down at the piano again, just like he did with "Fairy Tale" before, playing and singing at the same time.

[The First Time can be seen as a prequel to Fairy Tale, and I believe The Promise is a sequel to Fairy Tale. The female protagonist's illness is cured, except she becomes deaf. No arguments accepted!]

The three music videos maintain a consistent style, except for "The First Time," which is slightly out of place. Xian Ge's goofy character remains unchanged. The female leads in "Fairy Tale" and "The Promise" both have flaws—one has a terminal illness, and the other is deaf and mute. Therefore, I also feel that "The Promise" is a sequel to "Fairy Tale."

[In "Fairy Tale," the male lead has to perform on stage; in "The Promise," he has to hold a concert—it's definitely a sequel! So, Brother Xian, deep down, you think Qiu Qing is an imperfect female lead, right?]

Three years, then another three years. Nine years ago today, we promised to meet again at the same place three years from now. Nine years have passed, and we've long lost contact. Every year on this day, I appear at the same place. This afternoon, I'll also go to the agreed-upon spot to wait for you. Perhaps I'll never see you again, but I'll never forget that pure love. Thank you for this song, "The Promise," for bringing back such vivid memories.

……

In the comments and bullet screens, people were discussing whether "The Promise," as the third installment of the love trilogy, was a sequel to "Fairy Tale."

The majority of respondents believed it was a sequel.

Looking at the dense barrage of comments, Lin Xiaoyu's sister-in-law recalled her and her husband's early dating days and suddenly chuckled, "Honey, if we had broken up after graduation, do you think you would have fallen in love with someone else?"

"Hmph, I have a feeling you'll find a new partner before I do."

Lin Xiaoyu's brother sneered, "With your infatuated look, any man who's even slightly handsome could fool you."

"Oh dear, how could you be like this! Can't you even try to comfort me? Why don't you find someone else?"

Lin Xiaoyu's sister-in-law was so angry that she picked up a cushion and threw it at the man next to her.

Yes, the pattern on this cushion is Lin Daiyu.

"Why are you trying to comfort me? Am I not telling the truth?"

As a staunchly straight man, Lin Xiaoyu's brother would never back down: "Xiaoyu is just like you, tricked into going to that livestreaming room by that Ye Xian. I bet she'll be tricked into signing a contract to become a streamer next! No way, I have to stop her!"

Thinking of this, Lin Xiaoyu's brother grabbed his phone to call Lin Xiaoyu.

Lin Xiaoyu's sister-in-law immediately panicked: "Are you crazy? Brother Xian was just inviting her over as a guest, how could he possibly ask her to sign a contract of servitude? You think too badly of Brother Xian!"

"Bad? Look at how many women are around him!"

Lin Xiaoyu's brother mercilessly exposed Ye Xian's true colors.

Such a person is absolutely every man's enemy!
