The Strong Female Lead Versus The Most Miserable Male Lead

Chapter 142: Chapter 142 Contract Signed? Extra Update 2 as a Thank You for Voting

The next day, morning.

A bowl of piping hot fresh meat dumplings had everyone sweating from their foreheads, not a single drop of soup left in any bowl.

Zhang Hui’s smile was simple and unadorned, yet it felt incredibly genuine.

“The dumplings were mostly wrapped by Rubble, he’s really good at it.”

Nian Shutong turned to Rubble and saw him nodding earnestly, “Very simple, but not suitable for Ms. Nian Shutong.”

...

Just as Nian Shutong was about to compliment Rubble, she rolled her eyes at him and asked,

“Rubble, how much longer until you can upgrade?”

Every day, Rubble was sitting at the table, but he could only eat metal. Nian Shutong really hoped he could start eating sooner.

“Estimated time is three days, seven hours, and twenty-five minutes.”

The exact timing made everyone understand Rubble’s eagerness. But no one mocked him; if they had to just watch and not eat every day, they probably wouldn’t handle it as well as Rubble.

After breakfast, everyone went about their tasks.

Nian Shutong first went to the vegetable garden to check on it, making sure everything was alright.

The six plots had paths paved with pebbles, about twenty centimeters wide, for easy walking back and forth.

Nian Shutong walked to the cucumber patch. Just as she received a notification from Xiaoba that a cucumber was ripe, several voices sounded out.

“Master! My book!”

“Nian Shutong, someone from the livestreaming room is looking for a signing.”

“You have an urgent email.”

“Hiss—” Excited, Nian Shutong accidentally grasped the spines on the cucumber, piercing her palm.

You’d say it hurt, but surely not that much.

You’d say it didn’t hurt, but it was still uncomfortable.

“What’s wrong?”

“Master, be careful!”

“Xiaoba should not have rushed.”

Several more voices rang out. Nian Shutong circulated her Spiritual Energy, forcing out the cucumber spines. After one more round of Spiritual Energy, her hand was healed.

She stood up straight and pointed to Fu Yunhe, “You first!”

First? Was there someone else?

Fu Yunhe didn’t know and didn’t ask.

“Our livestreaming channel has received several signing invitations from broadcasting companies. I wanted to ask if we should accept them?”

Nian Shutong looked straight at Fu Yunhe and decisively said, “You must already have your own judgment. Do whatever you think is best and just let me know the outcome.”

Fu Yunhe was somewhat surprised; this was the first time Nian Shutong didn’t question or manage anything, just letting him be responsible for something.

“Anything else?”

“Oh, no.” Fu Yunhe shook his head, tactfully turning away.

As he turned around, he thought to himself, perhaps he was considered part of the inner circle now?

Although he was running errands, it was still progress.

He felt a sense of satisfaction.

On the other side, Nian Shutong hadn’t thought that much about it; she couldn’t possibly handle everything herself or it would work her to death.

“Daodao, what’s up with your book?”

Nian Shutong felt a bit uneasy; if it were a fight, she would rush into it without hesitation.

She decided that both “Earth Bar” and the “Text Mover” were mysterious and reclusive experts.
