Forcing Me to Be a Godly Tycoon, Right?-Chapter 1188 - 462: Honey, You’re Just Too...

"Two million!?" Jiang Lai was quite taken aback: "It’s just a video, why are you investing so much money in me?"

Zhang Jingdong replied truthfully: "This isn’t just any video, it’s an exceptional piece of content."

"As long as we keep increasing the exposure of your video, it’ll not only boost your personal fanbase but also bring a lot of users to our site."

Only then did Jiang Lai realize: "Alright, thank you, boss."

"Jiang Lai, don’t say it like that. As your boss, I should be thanking you."

"I was worried about our site’s slow user growth lately, and then your video suddenly went viral. You’ve solved a huge problem for me."

A hint of excitement appeared at the corner of Jiang Lai’s mouth: "As long as I can help you, I’ll do anything. Rest assured, I’ll be even more dedicated to filming videos in the future!"

Zhang Jingdong laughed heartily: "Then let’s work hard together. You strive to be the first blogger on the internet with ten million followers, and I’ll work on making our site a leading social network in the industry."

"Ten million followers!?" Jiang Lai pursed her lips: "Do you... do you think it’s possible for me?"

Zhang Jingdong said with conviction: "Jiang Lai, do you remember I told you about this a long time ago."

"I’m not exaggerating or lying. When I first met you, I was sure you had a natural charm that many people would love."

"It’s not just your beauty, but that unique combination of being lovable, resilient, and serene."

"You like Xiao Fei, right? She has that quality."

"She used singing as a medium for people to know her, to know her personality, and eventually, people fell for her unique aura."

"And now you’re using videos to let many people recognize you. Over time, your unique traits will win more and more people’s hearts."

"Alright, I trust you, I’ll follow your lead in everything."

Zhang Jingdong felt touched: "I’ll come to see you at the end of the month."

Jiang Lai was instantly happy: "Really? Okay, I’ll wait for you!"

"Definitely, I’ll prepare a nice surprise for you by then."

"No need, you coming is the biggest surprise for me."

"Well, well, Jiang Lai, you’re getting better at sweet-talking."

"Tch... You’re my boss, after all."

Zhang Jingdong smirked: "If I remember correctly, isn’t ’boss’ actually another way of saying ’husband’ over in Shangrao?"

"How... how did you know?"

"Haha, I just had an impression, didn’t expect it to be true. Seems like you were secretly taking advantage of me, Jiang Lai!"

"What nonsense, I... I’m honestly calling you boss, you are indeed my boss in the company!"

"Alright, Jiang Lai, I don’t want to hear the dialect version now. Talk to me in Mandarin version, call ’husband’ and let me hear!"

"You’re... you’re crazy... No way... I’m at home!"

"It’s not like I’ve never visited your home, you’re definitely on the second-floor balcony now, right? Don’t worry, your grandma won’t hear."

"But... no way, I’m... I’m shy!"

"What is there to be shy about in front of me? That night we were almost that, almost directly that... This is the fact that’s happened, don’t you want me to be responsible?"

Jiang Lai bit her lip, hesitant yet silent.

Zhang Jingdong noticed it and said: "Alright, since we’ve been ’that’ and you’re still denying our relationship, I won’t push. Let’s pretend nothing happened."

"You’re... you’re annoying, you know I’m not implying that. I just... next time when you visit, I’ll... I’ll call you in person, okay?"

Zhang Jingdong saw her yielding, then started to push further: "No way, I can’t wait now, just say it and let me hear."

"You..."

"I’ll give you ten seconds to prepare. If you don’t call within ten seconds, I’ll hang up immediately... Ten... Nine... Eight..."

"Okay, I’ll... I’ll call, okay..."

Zhang Jingdong tried hard not to laugh: "If you did this earlier, it’d be done, why make me push you, alright... go ahead."

"Hu... Husband."

"Louder."

"Husband."

"Still a bit quiet."

"Husband!"

"Jiang Lai, since you’ve decided, why not do it perfectly?"

"This is already my loudest, otherwise grandma will hear, really!"

"Okay, I won’t require your voice anymore, but let me make a small request content-wise."

"Jiang Lai, confess honestly, do you feel I’m particularly bad right now?"

"...A bit."

"Alright, since that’s the case, I’ll give you a justified chance to scold me, say ’Husband, you’re simply too bad’."

Although Jiang Lai hadn’t had ’that’, she was an adult, naturally knowing this sentence is not really scolding but rather...

So she shyly said: "No way, this... it’s too ’that’, I can’t say it."

"I won’t explain anymore, I’ll just start counting down, Ten... Nine... Eight..."

"Zhang Jingdong, you’re... you’re bullying!"

Zhang Jingdong continued counting: "Six... Five... Four..."

Jiang Lai finally couldn’t take it: "Alright, alright... I’ll say it! Husband, you’re simply too bad!"

Zhang Jingdong couldn’t hold his laughter anymore: "Haha, I knew you had the potential, if you had done this earlier, it’d be done!"
