"Xiao Ting, come here."
I took a deep breath. Although it wasn't the best time to lay all my cards on the table, I might as well be frank with her.
"Okay."
Qu Miaoting answered. Then, she asked, "Z- Zhuang Feng, I've prepared the dishes. Why don't you eat first?"
From her trembling voice, it wasn't hard to hear her anxiety. Qu Miaoting was a smart girl. She understood that if she didn't come to an agreement, she would have to leave this warm home.
To be honest, she hadn't lived here long enough. However, she wasn't the mistress of the house, and she didn't have the right to decide. She couldn't shamelessly refuse to leave.
"Let's talk about business first. He doesn't have the appetite to eat anyway." Unexpectedly, before I could say anything, my sister-in-law had already made the decision for me.
She displayed a rare domineering attitude. Was she trying to defend her position as the first wife?
"Oh, no hurry. I'm hungry. Let's eat first."
I was a bit unhappy. Originally, the two women felt remorseful after I revealed my family's wealth. However, my words of warning had a hint of sarcasm in them, so they were dissatisfied and brought up Qu Miaoting's matter.
Then, I ignored my sister-in-law's supercilious look and started to eat. After two mouthfuls, I nodded and praised, "Hmm, this dish is delicious."
My words gave Qu Miaoting a sliver of courage. Her taut face relaxed a little. After all, seeing her nervous look, I didn't feel good in my heart.
Speaking of which, Qu Miaoting wasn't wrong in this matter. She had been hiding her emotions, and it wasn't easy for her to do so.
It just so happened that this matter was like adding oil to the fire. If I stood on my sister-in-law's side without any principles, Qu Miaoting would be alone and helpless.
"Okay, I'll wait for you to finish eating." My sister-in-law wasn't angry.
While I was eating, my sister-in-law's phone rang again. It was still from Chief Zheng. My sister-in-law went to the balcony to pick up the phone. Although we were far apart, I could hear it clearly.
Chief Zheng knew the general situation of the live broadcast. "Who are you? Why are you so generous? Are you the son of a big corporation?" His tone was cautious.
In this day and age, having money is one thing, but having power is also very important, especially for a live broadcast company like theirs. If the higher-ups deliberately put pressure on them, they can just grab a piece of evidence and put it on a large TV station, and all kinds of overwhelming public opinion can destroy them in minutes. After all, compared to the programs on TV, most live broadcast content can not be said to be positive.
This was especially so for female streamers. They played around the edges and showed off their flirtatious ways. This would definitely have a negative impact on the physical and mental health of young people. Many young drivers could only switch to some unhealthy live streaming platforms to release the hormones of puberty under the situation where it was increasingly difficult to find a film source in Japan.
Therefore, it was definitely reasonable for Chief Zheng to get to the bottom of the matter. There was no doubt that it was rare for an audience of 100 million. As for Chief Kun, he had more or less figured out the background of Chief Kun. Through his sister-in-law's indirect questioning, he could compare and see who was more worthy of currying favor with.
My sister-in-law was a little hesitant. To be honest, she didn't know much about my methods. Speaking of which, her biggest support should be Wan 'er's grandfather, Shangguan Guoqiang. In the province, he was a very influential figure. Although she was just an ordinary woman, my sister-in-law knew that once Shangguan Guoqiang was involved, the nature of the matter would be completely different.
Wan 'er had previously said not to mention to Shangguan Guoqiang that she was doing a live broadcast. An old man like the commander-in-chief would definitely not be able to accept it. Compared to normal occupations, the word' female streamer 'could easily attract some strange gazes.
Most of the audiences she faced were people who liked to talk but couldn't bear to spend money. Little Cherry's previous experience made her dislike this kind of audience. Some people who entered the live broadcast room would ask how much a night was and whether her breasts were real. Little Cherry was so angry that she wanted to beat them up. That was why for the past two days, she mostly played with her phone and didn't actively participate in the live broadcast.
Thinking of Wan 'er's advice, my sister-in-law sighed. She didn't want this matter to continue to ferment. It wouldn't be good for anyone. Even if we were at odds, it didn't mean that she wanted me to get into trouble.
After a slight pause, she replied, "Chief Zheng, you misunderstood. Little Jie's boyfriend is just an ordinary person."
"Ordinary person?
You must be kidding me. How can someone who has the courage to take out one hundred million as a gift be an ordinary person? "Chief Zheng said impatiently. In his opinion, this joke wasn't funny at all.
"It's true. The reason why he can take out one hundred million is because he won the lottery not long ago. I have already advised him not to mess with Chief Kun anymore, lest it affects the platform's reputation," my sister-in-law explained seriously.
"Eh?" Chief Zheng was obviously stunned. Winning the lottery?!
That was indeed possible. Normally, even if you won a big prize, you wouldn't give it all to a female streamer. However, under certain circumstances, when a man was hot-headed and impulsive, he would do some unreasonable things.
This was very normal, especially when it came to jealousy. For example, gangsters in society would get into a group fight over a woman. It wasn't rare for a few to be injured or die.
Obviously, Chief Kun's repeated provocations had aroused my dissatisfaction. According to the way most people would act, after winning a huge sum of money, they wouldn't be so high profile, or else they would get into trouble. However, under the circumstances where I was burning with anger, I spent more than one million and even said that I would use one hundred million to play with Chief Kun until the end.
"Oh, Ah Mei, things have already gotten to this point. I think, with Chief Kun's temper, he will probably send ten thousand meteor showers tomorrow. What does your friend plan to do?"
Although it was just a phone call, I could still hear that Chief Zheng was obviously relieved. Although he had a huge sum of money, he couldn't get rid of the title of a nouveau riche.
"Aiya, he said it out of anger. I will explain it to the audience tomorrow."
My sister-in-law purposely turned around with her back facing me. Perhaps she was afraid that I would read her lips. I have to say, this silly woman really cared about my feelings. Perhaps it was just like what Liu Jie said, she didn't mean it.
At that time, I was in a fit of anger. I felt that since I was on the side, my sister-in-law and the others should restrain themselves a bit. It was also a form of respect for me. After all, they were already so unrestrained when I was on the side, let alone when I wasn't there. Wouldn't they be flipping the sky?
