Chapter 66: Chapter 66 I Made My Boyfriend Cry by Taking Off My Shoes_1
THUD!
Su Xuan collapsed onto the couch. When he got back up, his face was covered in lipstick marks! He looked quite dejected, like a delicate flower just battered by a storm.
"Hahaha!"
Tian Cheng, on the other hand, stood with her hands on her hips, laughing uproariously.
Who do you think I am? I’m Tian Cheng! Things other women daren’t do, I do! People other women daren’t touch, I touch! In short, what other women dare to do, I do. What they don’t dare to do, I’m even more eager to do. I am Tian Cheng! Sweeter than a first love! Spicier than a habanero!
But her current smug expression was more like a silent message for Su Xuan’s former female colleagues. Those women had once harbored dark desires to possess Su Xuan, and because Tian Cheng was close to him, they had bullied her. Now, she really wanted them to see that Su Xuan was cooped up in her house, where she had thoroughly taken advantage of him! Aren’t you all just fuming with jealousy?
After Su Xuan quit, she had immediately followed suit, leaving that company and ending her internship at that wretched place.
(Liu Yiming’s voice-over: Please, introduce me to that wretched place!)
(Guo Haozhen’s voice-over: Please, let me deal with those dark-hearted female colleagues!)
(Lu Dachun’s voice-over: I’m begging for that address! I want to personally deliver packages there!)
A blatant violation of the livestream rules! Ban the livestream!
Seeing the lipstick marks on Su Xuan’s face, the moderator shivered with anger. He moved his mouse over the ban button, about to press down.
But at that moment, Tian Cheng "hostaged" Su Xuan and dragged him in front of the camera.
"Hello, my darlings! Let me introduce you to an incredible VIP! He’s scaled skyscrapers to save people! He’s raced at high speeds to save a pregnant woman! He even saved the heart of a lost little girl—that’s me, your favorite Tian Cheng!
"Back when I was an intern, I had no direction for my future or dreams. I was completely lost. It was him, my mentor, who helped me build my confidence. He was like a lighthouse, guiding me..."
To everyone’s surprise, Tian Cheng also knew about Su Xuan’s heroic deeds. After recounting them, she began to tell the story of their past together to help her fans understand her better and become even bigger fans.
But the audience wasn’t interested in her old stories. All eyes were glued to Su Xuan!
"That’s right, it’s him!"
"Even with Tian Cheng’s level-ten beauty filter, I can still recognize him!"
"He’s definitely the hero who saved all those people!"
"His hundred-million-yuan supercar is insane!"
"He might look like a deliveryman on the surface, but he’s actually a super-rich and compassionate man!"
"He’s our Huaxia version of Batman!"
"He’s our Huaxia version of Iron Man, Tony Stark!"
"I can’t hold it in anymore!"
"Here, have five hundred Shark Fins!"
"Is the person above me kidding?"
"I’m dropping ten Airplanes just like that!"
"I’ll see that and raise you five Big Rockets!"
"Ten Big Rockets! I’ll crush you all!"
"Oh, wealthy fan, please accept my worship! Mwah!"
Seeing the screen flooded with gifts, the moderator moved his mouse away from the ban button.
The operations manager of the streaming platform, having noticed the unusual gift data in Tian Cheng’s channel, also arrived immediately. After watching for a few minutes, he promoted her stream to the homepage to attract more viewers and bring in more revenue for the platform.
He even wrote on the feature banner:
"The legendary deliveryman who saved lives twice makes his first livestream appearance! Everyone, get in here!"
One hundred thousand followers reached!
Two hundred thousand followers reached!
Three hundred thousand followers reached!
Five hundred thousand followers reached!
In a short time, swarms of fans flooded into Tian Cheng’s livestream, transforming her from a streamer with 20,000 followers into one with 500,000, and the number was still skyrocketing. A significant portion of them were female fans!
Even more shockingly, many decent-looking female streamers stopped their own broadcasts and rushed over to Tian Cheng’s channel to watch Su Xuan, showering her with a frenzy of gifts.
"I can’t take it anymore! My mentor’s charm is too powerful! I need... I need to use the restroom!"
Overwhelmed with excitement, Tian Cheng covered her burning face and darted into the restroom. When she came out, her face was even redder. Hanging inside the restroom was a pair of panties that now felt distinctly heavier...
"Don’t worry, everyone!" she shouted into the microphone upon her return, her voice cracking. "I’ll use all your gifts to treat my mentor to a meal! I won’t pocket a single cent for myself! I’ll let you all know in advance and broadcast it live! So, don’t stop the gifts! I, Tian Cheng, can take it!"
As she spoke, she kept a hand firmly on Su Xuan, terrified he would leave.
"Handsome hero, what’s your name?"
"Were you scared when you were saving people?"
"What belief makes you risk your life to save others?"
"If I were in trouble, would you save me too?"
The barrage of comments scrolled past relentlessly.
Wiping the lipstick from his face, Su Xuan replied helplessly, "I save people because I simply..."
He trailed off, suddenly remembering the phrase Teacher Wang had given him. That one was far more grand, far more impressive.
He enunciated each word clearly, "When poor, one cultivates their own virtue in solitude. When prosperous, one strives to better the entire world. I hope everyone with the ability to do so will continue to help the weak, filling this world with love and sunshine..."
Having spoken, Su Xuan couldn’t help but twitch his lip.
So cringey. So awkward.
But to his astonishment, the chat exploded again.
"Wow, so noble and magnificent!"
"His way of thinking is on another level entirely!"
"He totally deserves to drive a hundred-million-yuan supercar!"
"My god, I’m so moved my period is practically hemorrhaging! I need a transfusion!"
"I just took off my shoe and beat my gamer boyfriend until he cried!"
"I regret getting married yesterday! I want to marry a man like him! I’m going to file for divorce right now! Boo hoo!"
"Comparison is the thief of joy!"
"You can say that again!"
Seeing the stream of irrational comments, Su Xuan was immediately defeated. After having Tian Cheng sign for the package, he beat a hasty retreat.
"Tian Cheng, are you an idiot?"
"Your handsome god is leaving, aren’t you going to chase him?"
"If you can’t land him, we’re all unfollowing!"
"Go, go, go!"
"Sending you an Airplane! Get a move on!"
"Sending you a Rocket! Pursue him at top speed!"
Gifts began to fly across the screen once more, a dazzling display.
"Oh! Okay, I’m going, I’m going!"
Tian Cheng, snapped out of her stupor, didn’t even bother to change out of her yoga clothes before rushing downstairs after Su Xuan. She had been wearing them because she’d originally planned to stream her yoga practice, a fan favorite. Whenever she did, comments would flood in, saying things like:
"This yoga is going to be the death of me..."
When Tian Cheng got downstairs, she only caught a glimpse of the back of Su Xuan’s tricycle disappearing down the street.
Leaning against the entrance of the building, she shouted, "Mentor, I’ll call you about that meal!"
Su Xuan’s muffled voice drifted back from the distance, "We’ll see!"

RING! RING!
Amidst the gorgeous sunset, Su Xuan’s phone rang. It was Daniel, the President of Caranda’s China Region.
Daniel: "Mr. Su, it’s dinnertime. Have you finished your work?"
Su Xuan: "Just finished. Phew!"
Daniel: "In that case, Mr. Su, may I have the pleasure of having dinner with you? We could eat and talk. Would that be acceptable?"
Su Xuan: "You pick the place."
Daniel: "I was thinking the Lycar Hotel. Do you like it?"
Su Xuan: "Huh?!"
Daniel: "Mr. Su, you don’t like Lycar?"
A smirk played on Su Xuan’s lips. "Oh, I’d absolutely love that..."
