Miss Lin is a hunky VTuber today?

"I know."

Xu Lin didn't quite know what to say for a moment, so he gave a dry reply and picked up a fried egg to take a bite.

"What are you planning to broadcast tonight? I don't think you've prepared anything."

"Normally, the end-of-month song review is the usual practice when there's no team building activity, but given the current situation, it can only be postponed until after the team building activity is over. Tonight, I'm planning to do a casual talk review instead; it'll be nice to chat."

Xu Lin didn't mind that Sister Feng wanted to talk about work after only a few words. That was their usual way of chatting on WeChat, and they were already used to it.

"Is it true that you wanted to collaborate with Zaodaoji before? If you need it, I can help you get in touch with them. I happen to have resources there."

Sister Feng nodded and continued to ask.

"If possible, let's make arrangements. The growth rate of our fans has slowed down recently, and it's time to start collaborating with other companies. As for the other candidates, I'll send you a list when I get back, Sister Feng, and you can make arrangements accordingly."

Xu Lin could eat noodles and discuss work simultaneously, saying a sentence and taking a bite.

"I chose the VIPs that I know a lot about. As for the other VIPs, you can also prepare them. I will do my homework in advance once everything is arranged."

"You really make things easy for me."

Sister Feng uttered a faint sigh.

Section 79, Chapter 78: Buying Groceries

The first generation of trainees is indeed the most worry-free for operations.

As mentioned before, when they debuted, the entire ESC company was in a fledgling state due to time constraints. Among the employees, the ones most familiar with the VUP scene were Xu Lin and a few other Livers, as well as the boss himself. The operations team had almost no experience, so at that time, they were their own operations team.

Back then, apart from some resources provided by their boss through connections, they were practically no different from individuals. Not to mention maintaining daily video updates like they do now, even their official account updates were managed by Sister Yan.

But now, everything is getting better.

"Anything else planned for today? Didn't the boss say we were going to have a test of courage?"

After finishing his noodles, Xu Lin conscientiously began to clear the table and prepare to wash the dishes.

"You're free to broadcast today. If you really want to take a break, that's fine too. There's no fixed schedule. But the test of courage event should be at 9 p.m. However, we won't be broadcasting it live. We'll just record some interesting events for you to talk about later."

These things were all discussed by the operations team before the team building event, so Sister Feng didn't think before she spoke and just blurted it out.

"OK."

Xu Lin responded.

That concludes our discussion about work.

Just then, while Xu Lin was washing the dishes, a pink-haired creature suddenly appeared.

"What? It smells so good! Are you secretly giving me special treatment, senior?"

It was Lin Mu. This child seemed to have just gotten up not long ago. She came out wearing slippers and a light pink loungewear outfit. Although she didn't look as fashionable as she did yesterday, she still had a pure and innocent feel, like a girl next door.

That is, if someone notices her when she doesn't speak.

"Sister Feng cooked noodles for me, there's some left, would you like some?"

Xu Lin calmly turned around and asked.

On the contrary, Sister Feng, who was sitting in a more open area, seemed to be startled and looked a little panicked.

"I want to eat! I ate a little too much chili yesterday and my stomach feels a bit uncomfortable today www"

Lin Mu grinned and pulled out a large bowl, ladled some noodles for himself, and started munching on them without a care for appearances.

"Where's Xueyue? Isn't she in the same room as you?"

"She's still asleep. Last night she said she had to stay up all night since it was a rare day off, and I don't know how late she went to sleep."

"Oh, this..."

Xu Lin glanced at Sister Feng and gave a wry smile.

"Hmm, it seems we really need to forcefully adjust your sleep schedules. This is a bit too extreme, isn't it?"

Sister Feng nodded, confirming her previous idea.

"The underworld? I think it's fine. Young people should stay up late all the time!"

As Lin Mu was speaking, he noticed two people coming down the stairs.

It's the young lady and Li Huiyan.

Her big eyes darted around, and a mischievous smile suddenly appeared on her face as she ate her noodles. She asked Xu Lin in a slightly teasing tone.

"Did anything happen between you and Sakura-senpai last night? I know Sakura-senpai goes back to her room very late."

As soon as the words were spoken, Sister Feng and the other operators who had been paying attention all perked up their ears. Sister Yan chuckled and nudged Xu Youyue, while the young lady pretended to be calm and continued walking towards them with a slight blush on her face.

"Just eat your noodles. We only had a drink together, what could possibly happen?"

Xu Lin was also a little embarrassed and gave her a light slap. Lin Mu's words reminded her of the shocked look in Sister Yan's eyes last night.

That was a questioning of her male dignity!

"Tch ╮(╯＿╰)╭ I was hoping to get some candy!"

Lin Mu pouted, a little disappointed.

"By the way, how did you know that Miss went back to her room very late last night?"

"Because I was bored last night, I took Iris and Chu to her room to play cards."

This time, it was Sister Yan who spoke up and answered the question.

"Oh... Lin Mu, what are you thinking about all day long?"

"Alright, stop bullying the younger generation. Do you have time to come out with me?"

Xu Youyue didn't want to continue the conversation on this topic, so she quickly changed the subject.

"Oh! A date!"

Lin Mu covered his mouth with one hand and squinted at the two of them.

"It's not a date! I just asked her to go buy lunch ingredients together!"

The young lady now understands Xu Lin's feelings. Having such a lively junior who is so inconspicuous yet loves to tease can be quite frustrating at times.

"puff!"

Lin Mu laughed. She hadn't expected her seniors to be so adorable, actually getting shy over such a little teasing.

"Stop laughing, hurry up and eat, lunch is yours."

"Alright! Leave it to me! I'm pretty confident in my cooking skills!"

Xu Lin rolled his eyes at Lin Mu, then walked over to the young lady's side.

"Let's go, is there anything we need to buy?"

"It's mainly vegetables. I checked yesterday and my cousin, that carnivore, has stuffed the kitchen fridge almost entirely with meat. We should go buy some vegetables and fruits, otherwise we'll definitely get a sore throat from eating too much meat over the next three days."

As Xu Youyue pulled Xu Lin toward the door, she complained, leaving the single people in the living room to sigh with envy.

"That's great..."

"Yes, that's great."

"I feel like I'm about to burst from all this PDA! Ughhhhh!"

The trio in the video shared Turtle's reflections.

As for Yan Jie and Lin Mu...

They smiled at each other. √

Only Sister Feng sat at the table, propping her head up with her hand, seemingly lost in thought.

. . . . . .

On the other hand, after walking for about ten minutes, the two realized something was wrong when they arrived at the supermarket.

Two people with decision-making difficulties going grocery shopping? This is ridiculous!

"Hmm, would you like some eggplant?"

Standing in front of the vegetable section, Xu Youyue frowned as she looked at the huge, purple eggplants in front of her, looking somewhat troubled.

"I don't really like eggplant, but it's okay to eat it raw."

Xu Lin doesn't like the sticky texture of eggplant, but thinking that maybe someone else would like it, he didn't refuse too completely.

Can eggplants be eaten raw?

The young lady was somewhat confused.

"Sure. Eggplant dipped in soybean paste is a very common way to eat it where I'm from."

"Wow, there's such a way to eat it?"

There are quite a few differences in the way people eat between the North and the South. You can see it from some small details. For example, people in the North might buy a lot of vegetables at once, carrying dozens of kilograms of cabbage upstairs, while people in the South might only buy one or two leaves to make soup.

Even their grocery shopping habits are so different, let alone their eating habits. The biggest thing they have in common in terms of food is that they both eat fast food like McDonald's.

"Okay, let's buy some more garlic sprouts to take back."

What are garlic sprouts?

"Oh, I'll go get it."

After a while.

"Would you like to buy some tomatoes?"

The young lady looked at the bag in her hand, then looked at Xu Lin and asked.

Isn't a tomato a fruit?
