CHAPTER 63: CHAPTER 63: IS THERE PHLEGM STUCK IN YOUR THROAT?

Xia Liang had just taken out his phone.

Just then, a voice called out.

"Big brother, big brother!"

"Hmm?"

Hearing someone speaking, Xia Liang instinctively glanced around. Nobody’s there? Could I be hearing things?

...

Standing right in front of Xia Liang, the 1.5-meter-tall Su Yi couldn’t help but let the corner of her mouth twitch. It’s often said that lolis have three great qualities: a soft body, a gentle voice, and being easy to push down.

But her height was a serious drawback.

With Xia Liang being 1.82 meters tall, he instinctively looked straight ahead, so he naturally didn’t notice Su Yi, who was only 1.5 meters tall. Having no choice, Su Yi had to tug on Xia Liang’s shirt.

"Um, I’m right here."

On the other end, since she was connected via Bluetooth earphones, the audience in her live stream could clearly hear the conversation. Seeing this scene, everyone burst into laughter.

[Ignored! Hahaha!]

[Su Sannian got off to a bad start!]

[Good grief, Sannian’s height is a serious drawback!]

...

On screen, Xia Liang felt the pull on his clothes and looked down in confusion. Only then did he see a little kid standing in front of him. She was dressed in a cute black dress with her hair in twin ponytails, and her snow-white, lotus-root-like arms were tugging on his shirt. The most exaggerated part, however, was her chest.

She could be considered a loli with huge... assets.

Su Yi looked just like a princess who had stepped right out of a manga. Tilting her head up, her watery eyes gazed at him. Xia Liang certainly wasn’t bored enough to probe a little kid for information.

He asked with some confusion, "Little kid, do you need something?"

You’re the little kid! Your whole family are little kids!

In truth, Su Yi despised the "loli" label; it was just that her growth in the height department had been a bit stunted. Although she was quite frustrated, Su Yi had to keep the stream’s entertainment value in mind. She couldn’t afford to be willful.

After adjusting her mindset, Su Yi narrowed her eyes and offered a smile. "Big brother, big brother, my name is Su Yi. Can you do me a favor?"

Her voice was as sweet as cotton candy, melting one’s heart. But to Xia Liang, it just sounded strange. He reached out and patted Su Yi’s head.

"Su Yi, little kid, do you have a cold? Is there phlegm stuck in your throat? Why do you sound so strange?"

?????

Su Yi was stunned. What the hell is this? I deliberately used vocal techniques to make my voice sound soft and pleasant, and he’s saying I have phlegm stuck in my throat?

Just like Su Yi, the audience who heard Xia Liang’s words through the Bluetooth earphones went wild.

"My God! This guy is a legend!"

"Phlegm in her throat, my ass!"

"Looks like he’s a tough nut to crack."

"Su Sannian has finally met her match."

...

Back on screen, Su Yi’s smile had grown stiff. She had anticipated all sorts of responses from Xia Liang, but she never expected him to go completely off-script. However, Su Yi was, after all, a seasoned legal loli who had weathered many storms.

He doesn’t like this voice, huh? Fine! I’ll just use another one!

"Well, since you don’t like that voice, big brother, I’ll switch to another. How about this? Do you like it, big brother?"

As she finished speaking, Su Yi’s voice changed. This time, it sounded incredibly clear and bright, as melodious as a nightingale’s song.

However, Xia Liang wasn’t paying attention to that. Is someone trying to harvest my kidneys?

Seeing Xia Liang glancing around, Su Yi, afraid her assistant would be discovered, quickly tugged on his hand. "Big brother, big brother, I want to ask you for a favor, can I?"

Xia Liang looked down again and said flatly, "Tell me what it is first. Then I’ll decide if I’ll help."

As they were talking, Xia Liang checked Su Yi’s information panel.

[Name: Su Yi]

[Age: 22]

[Appearance: 96 (Light Makeup +2)]

[Occupation: Second-year student at Qingyun Music University (Part-time Feiyu Anchor)]

[Income: 2 points]

[Harmonious Value: 0]

22 years old?

Xia Liang was also surprised when he saw the panel. He had originally thought Su Yi was only about fifteen or sixteen. Turns out she was a legal loli.

At this point, Su Yi had no idea she had been completely seen through. As a beautiful woman, Su Yi was used to enjoying many conveniences in life. Back at the Qingyun Music Academy, if she so much as mentioned needing help, enough people would agree to form a full mahjong table. Who would be like Xia Liang and actually ask what the favor was first?

What made Xia Liang act this way? For a moment, Su Yi found herself becoming interested in him.

"It’s like this, a boy keeps harassing me. Could you help me send a voice message? Just say, ’I’m asleep.’"

After speaking, Su Yi looked at Xia Liang expectantly.

In the live stream chat, the viewers started howling.

"Here it comes! Su Sannian’s classic move!"

"Quick, take notes!"

"After this, she can use ’repaying the favor’ as an excuse to invite him to dinner."

"Learned something new today!"

...

Under Su Yi’s expectant gaze, Xia Liang immediately nodded.

"No problem."

"Great, thank you!" Su Yi was overjoyed and hurriedly handed her phone to Xia Liang.

Seeing this, the audience couldn’t help but sigh with emotion.

"It’s just as we expected!"

"No one can refuse Su Sannian."

"Another big brother is about to fall."

"When Su Sannian makes a move, you know it’s a done deal."

...

Amidst the flood of audience comments, Xia Liang took the phone, tapped the voice message button, and said softly, "I’m asleep."

Then he handed the phone back to Su Yi.

?????

Staring at the phone back in her hand, Su Yi looked at Xia Liang, completely bewildered.

Xia Liang blinked back at her. "What’s wrong? I said it."

What... the... HELL!

Su Yi’s face was a mask of shock. Can’t this person understand what I’m saying?

Seeing Su Yi’s somewhat twisted expression, the live stream audience was losing it.

"I’m dying of laughter!"

"Plus one for the schadenfreude squad."

"This guy’s reading comprehension is on another level!"

"The delivery guy did exactly what she said."

"Yeah, Su Sannian herself said to have the delivery guy say ’I’m asleep.’ He said it. No problem there!"

"Su Sannian has really met her match today."

...

"I..." Rendered speechless by Xia Liang’s question, Su Yi’s face contorted. It took her a long moment to squeeze out a sentence. "I guess that works... Thank you, big brother."

Looking at her expression, Xia Liang said calmly, "Helping others is the root of all happiness. Su kiddo, if you’re constipated, there’s a bathroom on the first floor of the office building over there."

He then kindly pointed toward the office building behind him.

You’re the one who’s constipated! Your whole family is constipated!

Su Yi almost lost her composure. Her chest heaved up and down. After managing to take a few deep breaths to calm herself, she forced a smile.

"Big brother, I’m not constipated. And thank you for your help. You’re so handsome; your girlfriend must be very happy."
