Seeing the comments in the chat, everyone grew even more curious and started urging Su Yi to contact Xia Liang. There were simply too many people asking.
Having no other choice, Su Yi could only grumble, "Since everyone wants to see him, I’ll try and see if I can get him to meet up, but... if he doesn’t agree, you can’t blame me, okay?"
"We won’t blame you!"
"I can’t wait to see this legendary ’real man’ of a delivery guy!"
Urged on by the chat, Su Yi finally picked up her phone. Her heart filled with trepidation as she placed a video call to Xia Liang.
He had successfully pulled off a 1v3 clutch against the head-patting taunter on the enemy team. Xia Liang was in a great mood.
Who do you think you’re patting? Your dad? Patting away when you can’t even win.
Just as he was about to turn off his phone and go to sleep, a WeChat video call notification popped up.
Hmm? Who is this? Calling so late at night?
Xia Liang glanced at the contact name.
"Wants 1.2-meter-long legs."
After all, she had transferred money to him. Thanks to that 250-yuan transfer, Xia Liang still remembered her. Wasn’t this the "legal loli" who had flirted with him the other day?
It’s so late... what could she want with me?
Xia Liang stroked his chin.
Since he was in a good mood, Xia Liang chose not to ignore the call this time. He answered the video call.
"Huh? It connected? He... he actually answered!"
On the other end of the call, Su Yi’s eyes were wide as saucers as she stared at her phone. She kept pointing at the screen, her face a mask of shock, so excited she was incoherent.
"He actually accepted my video call! Did you all see that? He answered!"
As she spoke, she even held up her phone to show the viewers in her live stream. This immediately split the chat into two factions.
One faction, naturally, had no idea what was going on.
"??? What’s wrong with Su Sannian?"
"Yeah, he just answered her video call, right? Is there a need to be this excited?"
"If a girl video called me, I’d answer too."
"What’s with this Bootlicker act, Sannian?"
The other faction, of course, consisted of viewers who knew what Xia Liang was capable of.
"What the hell is going on?"
"The delivery guy actually answered Sannian’s video call?"
"Look! This is what your so-called goddess acts like in front of another man!"
"I’ll bet two packs of spicy sticks the delivery guy won’t accept Sannian’s invitation."
"I’ll add another pack to that!"
Looking at Su Yi, who was acting like a complete lunatic, Xia Liang couldn’t help but frown.
"Su Yi, why the hell are you video-calling me in the middle of the night? Don’t tell me you’re having an episode and need me to deliver your meds."
As soon as he said that, Su Yi’s body jolted and she suddenly stopped moving. Then, as if she really was having an episode, she turned to face her camera and spoke excitedly to her audience.
"Did you guys hear that! He actually remembered my name! Did you hear him?"
Su Yi was so thrilled she was on the verge of tears. When had she ever been ignored ? For three whole days, he hadn’t replied to a single one of her messages. If it weren’t for the lack of a red exclamation mark, Su Yi would have thought Xia Liang had blocked her. But today, not only was her video call answered, but Xia Liang even remembered her name.
In an instant, Su Yi felt like all her suffering had turned to bliss.
Could it be that everything before this was a test from Xia Liang?
Compared to her elation, the audience in her live stream was just confused.
"...This... Has Sannian lost her mind?"
"Okay, the delivery guy is an obliviously dense guy, but is it really necessary to get this worked up just because he remembered your name? Isn’t this a bit much?"
"+1, look at the disgusted expression on the delivery guy’s face."
"I bet if Sannian keeps grinning like that, the delivery guy is going to hang up."
Sure enough, in the next second, Xia Liang decided Su Yi must be off her meds and promptly ended the call.
Damn it, what a lunatic, calling in the middle of the night!
On the other end, Su Yi finally snapped back to her senses. Staring at the disconnected call, she was dumbfounded.
Su Yi quickly pulled herself together and made a WeChat video call to Xia Liang again.
Seeing her call again, Xia Liang thought for a moment and decided to answer. Seeing that Su Yi had finally returned to normal, he finally asked, "It’s so late. What do you need?"
Hearing this, Su Yi took two deep breaths and extended her invitation.
"Um, are you busy tomorrow? I’d like to treat you to a meal."
Xia Liang touched his chin, asking dubiously, "Tomorrow?"
"Mhm." Su Yi nodded eagerly. Afraid that Xia Liang would refuse, she quickly added, "If tomorrow doesn’t work, then the day after, or the day after that. Any day is fine."
"Oh, let me think," Xia Liang said, then began to ponder.
Tomorrow morning, I first have to take Xi Yisu and Luu Qi to the university and their hotel. Then there’s Qingxue. She just set up that part-time job for my sister, after all. Bailing on the second day would be too opportunistic; the optics would be terrible. After dropping Qingxue off, I need to head back to the villa for a bit. A young man’s gotta vent some steam, you know. Then, I deliver food in the afternoon. It’s only 10 orders, so it won’t take up too much time. In that case...
Xia Liang nodded. "Alright, but I’m only free from 4:00 to 7:00 p.m."
Hearing Xia Liang say that, Su Yi immediately agreed. "Great! Four o’clock it is, then. I’ll wait for you at the entrance of Qingyun Music Academy! Be there!"
"Okay, see you tomorrow." ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ noveⅼfire.net
Without hesitating, Xia Liang agreed and hung up the phone.
On the other end of the line, Su Yi wasn’t too surprised that he had hung up so abruptly. After all, that was just his personality. If he had actually spoken to her sweetly, she would have suspected he was possessed.
After hanging up, Su Yi began to gloat.
"See that? When I make a move, it’s a guaranteed success! Did you see? The cute guy agreed to meet me! For my sake, he’s even giving up his delivery time!"
The audience, unable to stand her arrogant face, immediately started to tear her down.
"Yo, Sannian, getting a little ahead of yourself, are we?"
"He gave you a very specific time slot."
"I bet Su Sannian just bribed the delivery guy with money again."
"I agree! It wouldn’t be the first time Su Sannian has done that."
Hearing them doubt her, Su Sannian couldn’t take it anymore. She immediately pulled out her phone and scrolled through her chat history, then declared triumphantly, "Look closely, everyone! I didn’t transfer any money to bribe the delivery guy this time. He agreed all on his own."
However, as she was scrolling through her chat history, some of the viewers had already noticed something was off.
"Um, why does it look like only Sannian is sending messages to the delivery guy?"
"+1, no way. The delivery guy never replied to Sannian before this?"
"No wonder! No wonder she was so ecstatic when the delivery guy answered her video call!"
"So that’s how it was! Hahaha, I’m dying!"
"Sannian! So the tables have turned on the great flirt!"
"Hahaha! What goes around comes around. Karma gets everyone in the end!"
