Miss Lin is a hunky VTuber today?

“I’ll think about this some more. There are risks and opportunities, so it depends on how we operate. Sister Feng, when you get back, write up a contingency plan, and then we’ll continue to discuss it.”

"After all, Ruoye hasn't been exposed for half a year, so there shouldn't be any need to worry about her for the time being."

When the boss is actually working, he is quite reliable. Even when his mind is full of various thoughts, he is very discreet in his words and does not reveal any information that might expose Xu Lin's true identity.

"Okay, boss. By the way, recruitment for the fourth batch of trainees has already started. Do you have any recommendations?"

Having laid the groundwork, Sister Feng subtly revealed her true intentions.

However, there's nothing wrong with asking that question. After all, although recruitment should be the sole responsibility of their operations team, considering that the three high-caliber Livers of the first generation were all recruited by the boss, it's already a necessary task for them to ask the boss if they have any candidates when recruiting new members.

"I don't have any good candidates on my side."

The boss shook his head.

"To be honest, I'm already lucky to have found a few friends from the first generation who are interested in anime and have good character. I don't expect to find another one."

He certainly saw the hopeful light in Sister Feng's eyes, but the reality was too complicated for him to explain, so he simply decided to say nothing; the more he said, the more mistakes he would make.

So he chose to play dumb.

As for the vague feelings of affection that Sister Feng had in her heart, the boss could only apologize to her.

After all, that person has already been reserved by my cousin; I can't be a traitor.

The boss looked up through the soundproof glass at the two people in the recording studio, their voices perfectly synchronized, and sighed.

It's human nature to side with relatives rather than with what's right, especially since the two seemed to be deeply in love, so how could he dare to cause trouble?

"Okay... I understand."

Sister Feng was a little frustrated, but she didn't dwell on it too much.

By the way, Sister Feng is actually a cute girl who is 1.6 meters tall and has an above-average appearance.

If I had to describe her, she has the typical girl-next-door look, but she always wears a formal suit to work, which gives her a very serious appearance. She doesn't smile much and is usually quite quiet.

Then both of them fell silent.

The boss, wearing headphones, listened quietly to the duet, while Sister Feng sat at the coffee table on the other side, typing away on her computer, writing a proposal.

The disappearance of the male version of Xu Lin was merely a topic of casual conversation within the ESC club. Occasionally, during lunch, people would mention it casually, exchanging a few words, nothing more than, "Hey, haven't seen that handsome guy lately. Should we ask Ruoye for his contact information?"

Moreover, Xu Lin never received any similar inquiries afterward, which clearly meant that everyone was just joking. After all, what does it matter if someone is handsome or you have a vague feeling of attraction to someone you've only met a few times?

If Xu Lin hadn't transformed, there might have been a sequel between them, but given the current situation, it's too difficult to know the truth behind the surface.

...inside the recording studio...

"Phew, finally finished recording."

The young lady took off the heavy headset from her head and let out a long sigh.

There were no fans installed in the recording studio to avoid wind noise; there was only a low-powered, silent portable air conditioner blowing into a corner, so the temperature was much higher than outside.

In addition, singing is a physically demanding activity, so although I wasn't drenched in sweat while recording this song, I was still quite sweaty.

"Have some water first."

Xu Lin habitually opened a bottle of mineral water and handed it to the young lady; it was at room temperature and wouldn't irritate her throat.

How are your vocal cords? Do they hurt?

The young lady who took the water didn't drink it first, but looked at Xu Lin with concern.

Singing in a falsetto voice for one or two songs is fine, but doing it for a long time can easily damage your vocal cords.

"It's alright, there's no major problem. It seems that my vocal cords are quite resilient now. I should be able to consider extending the live broadcast time appropriately later."

Xu Lin took a sip of water first, then switched back to his natural voice to check the condition of his vocal cords, and surprisingly, he didn't feel any pressure.

For this reason, she has only been able to stream for one hour a day recently, which has caused some complaints from viewers. Moreover, the monthly end-of-month song replay is coming up soon, and she is quite happy to find that her voice has an unexpectedly good capacity.

"That's good, but I'd better not do any long-duration live streaming, it's too bad for your health."

The young lady glanced at Xu Lin, who, as soon as he recovered, couldn't resist his reckless and wanton behavior, and said in an annoyed tone.

"If you don't want to be in excruciating pain next month, it's best to avoid doing long-duration live streams."

"Oh, this..."

Xu Lin was slightly taken aback, but after understanding the implied meaning in the young lady's words, he nodded vigorously.

"I understand! Endurance streaming and such are immediately banned!"

In the recording studio, a white-haired, red-eyed girl stood with a determined expression, as if making a once-in-a-lifetime vow.

Saying the most cowardly things with the most serious expression, no wonder she's Miss Lin, who deceives the world.

P.S.: Well, I want to say something, but I don't know what to say.

Fine, I'll just ask for a vote then~

I'm going out to buy groceries in a bit, so the next chapter will be a little late.

Section 37, Chapter Thirty-Seven: Xu Lin's Subtle Changes

Xu Lin's decisive answer left the young lady somewhat stunned.

She stared intently into the girl's crimson eyes, her thoughts gradually drifting away.

I vaguely remember that Xu Lin was a little different when he was still a man than he is now.

If it were the old Xu Lin, he would probably be forcing himself to say strange things right now, right?

"Www"

"What are you laughing at, young lady?"

Xu Lin looked at Xu Youyue with some confusion, unsure of what to do or how to react.

"It's nothing~"

Xu Youyue winked mischievously, then leaned close to Xu Lin's ear with a grin and whispered something in his ear.

"I just feel like you've changed a bit; you're not as strange as before."

The young lady's voice was so soft that Xu Lin almost didn't hear it.

But she did hear it clearly after all.

"Well, after all, we're living together."

Xu Lin reached out and ruffled the young lady's hair, his face beaming with a smile she had never seen before.

Xu Youyue was momentarily confused by Xu Lin's meaning, but she was dazzled by his smile. This was probably the most ambiguous gesture he had ever made towards her. Xu Lin, who used to keep a three-step distance from her whether they were traveling or shopping together, had actually touched her head!?

The young lady was so surprised that she didn't even have time to feel shy.

"Huh?"

She spoke blankly, staring blankly at the white-haired, red-eyed girl in front of her, not even realizing what Xu Lin meant.

"what happened?"

"There are times when you take the initiative to contact me."

"Because we're living together."

Because they're living together... because they're living together... because they're living together...

Xu Lin's words echoed endlessly in the young lady's mind until she suddenly realized what Xu Lin's words meant.

[It's strange, but this is...]

【Confession! ? 】

Xu Youyue was startled, and two red clouds quickly rose to her cheeks. She quickly forced herself to calm down.

No, no, no, that's not certain yet! I can't afford to lose my composure!

"What's wrong? Have you suddenly become demented?"

"Huh!? You dare call me senile!?"

Xu Lin's strange remark inadvertently helped the young lady calm down.

"It's good that you're not stupid. I thought I had awakened some kind of superpower that could make people stupid by patting their heads."

She continued to spout strange things, her expression so earnest that it was impossible to tell if she was telling the truth.

"What kind of weird superpower is that?!"

"That's not necessarily true. I've already transformed, so there's nothing strange about me awakening superpowers, right?"

Xu Lin spread his hands, and in the sunlight streaming in through the window, even his eyelashes seemed to be smiling.

She doesn't have facial paralysis; she just rarely shows any expression on other people's faces.

The young lady had seen him laugh maniacally and roll around before, and now she had seen her suffer to the point of mental breakdown. But she had never seen her smile so gently before.

She seemed different from before, but it was definitely not because of a transformation.

"That's true... Wait! I haven't gone stupid!"

The young lady was confused by the warmth of that smile and subconsciously responded, but then suddenly came to her senses and jumped up to fight Xu Lin to the death.

"Hey! Young lady! Men and women shouldn't touch each other!"

Xu Lin tried to escape, but Youyue pulled him back.

"What are you saying! It's not a live broadcast, and you're a girl, for crying out loud!"

The young lady reacted quickly, noticing the loophole in Xu Lin's words and hurriedly trying to salvage the situation.

"Oh, this."

Then Xu Lin pushed him away.

"Feel sorry..."

"It's okay, I'm just not quite used to it yet."
