The Strong Female Lead Versus The Most Miserable Male Lead-Chapter 144 - : Throttling

Chapter 144: Chapter 144: Throttling

In the evening, the main meal in the small wooden house was pies.

Cucumber with egg, this time a bit of soy sauce was added to the filling, making it taste even better than last time’s dumplings.

Pork with Chinese cabbage, it absolutely unlocked a new world for everyone.

Crispy on the outside, tender inside, with thin skin and a generous filling.

Golden brown on both sides, a completely different texture from dumplings, it left everyone with greasy faces.

After the meal, Fu Yunhe prepared for the live stream while watching Ms. Nian Shutong leisurely sipping malt syrup across from him.

...

“Beauty, have you noticed my qualities? No need to sneak peeks, just look openly.”

Ms. Nian Shutong raised her eyebrows at Fu Yunhe, with a clearly visible smile.

Before Fu Yunhe could respond, Rubble, squatting nearby, spoke up.

“Ms. Nian Shutong, what are your good qualities?”

“Good people, besides being ugly, are all qualities!”

Ha Ha, the master of timely jokes, perfectly teamed up with Rubble.

Fu Yunhe struggled a bit to hold back his laughter, coughed twice to adjust the equipment, and said, “Today’s live stream might have fewer viewers.”

Ms. Nian Shutong casually glanced at Rubble and Ha Ha, one clueless and the other grinning foolishly.

If she were to argue with them, she’d be infuriated sooner or later. So she ignored them and turned to Fu Yunhe.

“Fewer?” Ms. Nian Shutong, thinking of what Fu Yunhe had told her, asked, “Because you rejected them?”

“Yes.”

Ms. Nian Shutong casually waved her hand and said, “It doesn’t matter.”

She stood up, walked over to Fu Yunhe, and reached to put her hand on his shoulder, but then noticed the height difference between them.

She looked twice and gave up.

“Xiao He, what is that across the river?”

Following Ms. Nian Shutong’s pointing finger, Fu Yunhe looked toward the pitch-dark opposite bank.

“The other side…is kind of dark.”

Ms. Nian Shutong, who had intended to be assertive, stiffly changed the direction of her pointing finger, her gaze suspiciously sizing up Fu Yunhe.

“Is your intelligence higher during the day and lower at night? Does it fluctuate all the time?”

Fu Yunhe pushed away Ms. Nian Shutong’s finger with one of his own and asked, “Then what do you want me to see?”

With the mood spoiled, Ms. Nian Shutong simply dropped her hand and placed it behind her back, saying, “It’s about the land! the land we planted.”

“That’s what? That’s all money!”

Realizing what she meant, Fu Yunhe suddenly understood; he had indeed not followed Ms. Nian Shutong’s train of thoughts initially.

“Do you mean we now have money and whether or not we stream doesn’t matter much?”

Could he possibly pull out early? It felt somewhat unreal.

“Hey…” Ms. Nian Shutong patted Fu Yunhe’s arm.

“Brother Beauty, why are you so slow in catching on? When have you seen me pushing money away?”

“I’m telling you, whether we earn more or less, we still need to earn.”

Fu Yunhe laughed at himself, realizing how clueless he had been.

This was the person who dared to extort the steward for ten thousand Star Coins when destitute.

“It’s time, I need to earn money.”

“Work hard.” Ms. Nian Shutong also walked back to her usual spot, watching the live stream.

This was her, Ha Ha, Rubble, and Daodao’s leisure show.

“Hello everyone, I’m Xiao He. Today’s stream features salted meat and vegetable porridge.”

“This piece of meat, I had previously marinated using a new product called soy sauce.”

“Soy sauce is a seasoning. When you cook meat, adding some enhances the marinade flavor, and it will be available for sale in the store.”

Fu Yunhe slowly explained how to make the vegetable porridge while Ms. Nian Shutong specifically checked the viewer count, which indeed had dropped a bit.

It was supposed to break ten million according to the streaming trend, which should have been rising, but now instead of increasing, it had dropped to just over seven million.

“Limiting us?” Ms. Nian Shutong’s eyes showed displeasure; she might not care about earning less, but being throttled and sanctioned was quite annoying.

“Master, master, let’s do a live stream of dumplings. On Earth, there’s a saying, ‘nothing’s better than dumplings,’ let’s make them drool!”

Dumplings?

Not bad, the first time they had them, even without any seasoning, everyone still ate ravenously.

“Alright, Daodao finds more filling varieties, I want to use dumplings to break their sanctions.”

“Roger!”
