As the sound of unhurried footsteps rang out, Aoi Nakano's figure disappeared at the door.
Hayano Hoshiko held her apron and stared blankly in the direction the other party left, feeling a very strange emotion in her heart.
what happened…
Obviously, she was the one staying at An Zeliang's house tonight, but when she was talking to Nakano Aoi just now, she felt like she was being visited and cared for by the queen...
"Xingzi, you haven't had dinner yet, what would you like to eat?"
Hearing An Zeliang's voice, Hayano Hoshiko came back to her senses, hung the apron in her hand back into the kitchen, looked for a while, and shook her head.
"I don't feel very hungry, so I won't eat."
Just after she finished speaking, Hayano Hoshiko thought of something and asked again.
"Has Xiaoliang had dinner?"
"I stopped at a convenience store on the way back and ate something. I'm not hungry."
"Well, that's good." Hayano Hoshiko felt relieved, but suddenly didn't know what to do next, so she habitually turned on the computer and wanted to play a few games.
"Xiaoliang, come and play a game with me, okay?"
"I have to take care of some company stuff, so I won't play tonight." An Zeliang didn't go back to the bedroom. He turned on the computer in the living room and after thinking for a while, he started editing a new episode of the animation.
There are also users on Douyin who are posting some videos one after another, but there are still not enough high-quality creations, so he needs to use animation updates to stabilize the traffic.
After editing the key information of this episode according to the content of the last checkpoint, An Zeliang clicked the mouse.
【Video is in production...1%】
A familiar prompt popped up, and An Zeliang started writing code for the Douyin website and APP again, planning to launch a welfare program to incentivize creators. The benefits will be divided into five levels, with the higher the level, the greater the reward.
The grade is calculated comprehensively based on data such as video playback volume, number of reposts, number of comments, etc.
This workload is quite heavy. An Zeliang thinks that according to his progress, he will probably finish it by Thursday or Friday.
As the sound of keyboard tapping continued, lines of code flew quickly across the screen, and from time to time a few pages popped up. Based on the feedback data presented on them, An Zeliang deleted and modified them.
Click.
At this time, a plate of cut fruit was placed on An Zeliang's table, with toothpicks thoughtfully stuck on it.
"Thank you." An Zeliang came back to his senses, picked up the fruit and took a bite with a smile.
"Xiaoliang is always polite to me..." Hayano Hoshiko curled her lips, not very happy, but still took the teapot to add water to Anzeliang.
"Xingzi doesn't play games anymore?" An Zeliang asked casually after eating some fruit and drinking some water and continuing to write code.
"Go ahead and fight. I'll be standing at the entrance of the fountain killing as much as I can. Xiaoliang, you continue with your work. I'll start the next game soon." Hayano Hoshiko moved the mouse and kept clicking on something on the screen.
Seeing this, An Zeliang didn't care. Before he lowered his head to continue working, he remembered something and continued to speak.
"Xingzi, there's a small cake in the refrigerator that I bought for you, remember to eat it."
"Really? Okay!" Hayano Hoshiko was stunned. She thought the cake in the refrigerator was bought by Nakano Aoi, so she didn't touch it. Now after hearing this, she happily got up to get the cake, brought it back to the table, and ate it while continuing to click the mouse.
From this angle, Anze Liang couldn't see that what was on Hayano Hoshiko's screen was not a game, but the Tik Tok website created by Anze Liang.
Watching the video above carefully, Hayano Hoshiko occasionally curled the corners of her lips, and was very amused, but she didn't laugh out loud, only her calves trembled silently.
After laughing, she likes, comments, and reposts the video to social platforms. If the video is not funny, she fast-forwards through it and continues the same process.
These are all ways to increase popularity of An Zeliang's website.
After watching two or three short videos, Hayano Hoshiko stood up and replaced the hot water in An Zeliang's cup. When she was tired of watching, she walked around, washed and hung out the clothes, checked whether the doors and windows were closed, and then sat back to watch the video.
Before I knew it, it was already ten o'clock in the evening.
【Video production completed】
As the prompt popped up, An Zeliang stopped typing code and updated the animation on the website. Then he stood up, stretched his muscles, drank a sip of hot tea, and looked at Hayano Hoshiko who was still concentrating on playing on the computer opposite him.
"What hero did you play today?"
"It's still Ikaros. I won more than ten games in a row!" Hayano Hoshiko raised her head, smiling brightly, a little silly, and casually closed the video website with her hand.
"Xiaoliang, you've been sitting for too long. Soak your feet before going to sleep."
Having said that, Hayano Hoshiko ran to the bathroom, brought out a large basin of hot water, and forced An Zeliang to sit down.
"Isn't this water temperature... a little too hot?"
"It's better to be a little hotter. It can promote blood circulation and help sleep..." Hayano Hoshiko muttered about the various benefits.
She just searched on the computer what are the bad effects of sitting for a long time, and found a bunch of diseases, ranging from hemorrhoids to lumbar disc herniation and so on. Her scalp was numb.
If An Zeliang gets sick in old age, how can she, an old lady, take good care of him... She should take good care of her health from now on.
Thinking in her heart, Hayano Hoshiko took off her socks and wanted to soak her feet as well. After hesitating for a moment, she suddenly squatted down and stretched her white and tender little hands into the water.
"Xingzi, what's wrong?"
"Let me try it." Hayano Hoshiko grabbed An Zeliang's feet with one hand, and clicked on an English video with the other hand. Following the content on the video, she gently pressed on the soles of An Zeliang's feet.
"Does it hurt when I press you here? What about here? And here too."
An Zeliang couldn't help but fall silent for a moment. He had expert-level massage skills and knew very well what acupuncture points there were on the human body and what their corresponding effects were.
"Xingzi, those areas you pressed correspond to kidney function."
"Really?" Hayano Hoshiko blinked her eyes, looking very innocent, "Xiaoliang, you must be mistaken. The video said that these are acupuncture points that can relieve fatigue."
Hmm...yes, how can intense fighting not be considered as relieving fatigue?
An Zeliang nodded: "Okay, Xingzi, you continue, I will feel the power of these acupuncture points."
"Xiaoliang, your eyes are so scary, I'd better not press it."
"Come here, I'll give you a massage."
"... "
At one o'clock in the morning, Hayano Hoshiko collapsed in An Zeliang's arms with her legs twitching.
“Wow… I only pressed it a few times, how could it have such a strong effect…!”
"Xiaoliang, you are bullying me on purpose!"
"Don't talk nonsense." An Zeliang looked at her energetically, "I obviously meant to bully you."
“…Woo woo woo!”
Hayano Hoshiko cried even harder, and when she was tired of crying, she buried her little head in An Zeliang's arms and fell asleep quickly.
An Zeliang also closed his eyes and fell into a baby-like sleep.
Late at night, Hayano Hoshiko moved her body, yawned, sat up, drank some water, and returned to bed, leaning her head on An Zeliang's shoulder.
The cold moonlight shines through the half-open curtains and falls on the bed, as if it were covered with a layer of white gauze.
Hayano Hoshiko looked for a while, and suddenly let her long hair fall on the side of the bed. Her jet-black hair reflected the white moonlight, just like a bridal veil, or the white wedding dress worn at a Japanese wedding.
Pulling out a strand of hair, Hayano Hoshiko looked at An Zeliang, and making sure that he was still asleep, she quietly took his hand, circled the hair around his ring finger, and then around her own ring finger, and the ten fingers of the two hands were intertwined, showing close intimacy.
"hey-hey."
Hayano Hoshiko suddenly giggled and rubbed her eyes.
"I am willing."
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 226 223: Exploiting Female Fans
The moonlight flowed quietly on her black hair. Hayano Hoshiko smiled and clasped An Zeliang's hands, looking at them quietly for a long time.
"Hey... Xiaoliang is only eighteen years old and hasn't even graduated from high school yet..."
"Let's talk about it after I get into college."
Thinking this in her mind, Hayano Hoshiko pulled out the hair that served as a ring and wanted to throw it into the trash can. After thinking about it, she opened the bag on the bedside and put the hair into the zipper bag.
After waking up for a while in the middle of the night, it was difficult to fall asleep again. Hayano Hoshiko muted her phone and then started playing a mobile game. Suddenly, large amounts of special effects flashed across the screen.
After five or six minutes, the screen went black.
"The hero is dead! Can you revive him?"
As the prompt popped up, several of the hero's teammates cried sadly beside them, and kept saying that without the hero, the suffering on this land could no longer be saved.
Hayano Hoshiko's finger moved involuntarily towards the recharge button, looking extremely hesitant. At this moment, a conversation suddenly flashed by.
"Wow, wow, the tavern proprietress in this small town can no longer wait for the boss!"
pat!
Hayano Hoshiko's fingers trembled, and when she came to her senses, she had already skillfully spent 3,000 yen and successfully resurrected the hero, so she could continue the game.
There’s nothing we can do… the tavern owner’s wife is still waiting for the boss. Most people who see this would be unable to resist helping her out!
After silently comforting herself, Hayano Hoshiko thought that she had spent all her money and continued to play. More than ten minutes later, the hero died suddenly again, and the familiar interface and dialogue popped up again.
Hayano Hoshiko decisively selected the red cross in the upper right corner and quickly quit the game with a guilty look on her face.
"I'm sorry, you only lost one life, but I lost 3,000 yen!"
Then, she opened her mobile banking account and looked at her current deposits, which were approximately 360,000 yen. The monthly salary of a high school teacher is generally 300,000 yen. She has been working for two years since graduation, and her monthly salary has increased to 400,000 yen.
However, because I have been spending money all the time, I haven’t saved much money so far.
These 360,000 yen were what she had managed to save recently.
"I should have known better than to spend the 3,000 yen. I could have used the money to buy gas, go out for dinner, or buy a little promotion for Xiaoliang's Twitter..."
Muttering to herself, Hayano Hoshiko opened the addresses of several Tokyo properties that she had collected and looked at them carefully.
There are many schools in Bunkyo Ward, and the University of Tokyo is also located in Bunkyo Ward. Most of the properties here are apartments of dozens of square meters. The cheapest one is more than 800,000 yen per square meter, and the most expensive one is more than 1.1 million yen per square meter.
Hayano Hoshiko silently closed the webpage, uninstalled the mobile game, closed her eyes, and felt the urge to sleep forever.
Suddenly, her cell phone vibrated.
"Xingzi, have you had a rest? Have you decided on a school to transfer to?" The note on this message was "Mom".
"Not yet." Hayano Hoshiko replied, "I haven't decided which school to go to yet."
Om-!
A phone call came directly in. Fortunately, the phone was on mute mode and there was no sound. However, Hayano Hoshiko was still startled. After checking that An Zeliang was not woken up, she walked out of the room barelegs and came to the living room.
"Why did you take so long to answer?"
As soon as the phone was picked up, Hayano's mother's somewhat complaining voice came over, and without waiting for Hayano Hoshiko to answer, she continued.
"Yuyingguan High School is pretty good. The salary they offer you is pretty good, and with more experience you can be transferred to a lifetime position, which is very stable. What do you think, Xingzi?"
"I think it's pretty good." Hayano Hoshiko agreed absentmindedly, drawing circles on the ground with her toes.
"Then agree to it all. You've been talking about transferring for a while, but it hasn't been finalized yet." Hayano's mother couldn't help but urge, "You're already 24 years old. The sooner you can get a stable job, the better."
Hayano Hoshiko curled her lips and whispered back, "I'm only twenty-four... Mom, please don't be so anxious, okay?"
"Xingzi, if I'm not anxious, who will be anxious for you? You're not sure about your job transfer, and you don't even have a boyfriend..."
Listening to her mother's long chatter, Hayano Hoshiko didn't say anything. She wanted to go to the refrigerator to get a bottle of drink, and happened to see the piece of cake she hadn't finished eating today, with a strawberry left on it.
She had originally left it for An Zeliang to eat, but when she told An Zeliang about it later, he said that if she liked it, she could eat it all and there was no need to leave it for herself.
"...Mom, I don't want to be transferred to Ikueikan High School." Hayano Hoshiko suddenly said, "I want to go to Toho Private High School."
"No!" Hayano's mother was stunned, and then immediately retorted, "How long can you stay in a private high school? We asked you to take the teacher exam because we wanted you to have a more stable life..."
"Mom, I just want to go to Toho Private High School." Hayano Hoshiko was very determined. "Toho is very close to my current apartment. It's also convenient if I want to drive there to meet up with my current colleagues and friends."
"When you go to a new working environment, you will have new colleagues and new friends!" Hayano's mother was puzzled.
"I like it the way it is now and don't want to change it." Hayano Hoshiko picked up the strawberry on the cake and ate it. It tasted sweet. She continued mumbling while chewing.
"Besides, the salary offered by Toho Private High School is much higher than that of Ikyo-kan. If I save for five or six years, I can put down a down payment on an apartment in Bunkyo Ward, and it will be easy to repay the loan."
"You haven't even gotten married yet, it's too early to consider buying an apartment now." Hayano's mother was even more confused and even a little angry, "Xingzi, if the person you marry doesn't have a car or a house, why would you marry him?"
Hayano Hoshiko felt that if she continued talking, they would start quarreling, so she yawned deliberately: "Mom, I have to go to work tomorrow, I'm so sleepy... I'll take a rest first, and we'll talk later."
"You, you..." Hayano's mother couldn't help but sigh, "Okay, go to sleep, mom won't disturb you."
