Yu Huangâs phone kept vibrating. She wasnât flustered or unhappy as she finished the last of the food. She wiped her mouth and picked up the phone on the table.
Yu Huang opened WeChat and was momentarily blinded by the new messages on the screen.
Yin Rong said, âAwww, Professor Sheng dotes on you so much. He must be coming out personally to prove your innocence. Sob, how manly! My couple is the most loving couple in the world!â
In the internet world, Yin Rong was two completely different from in real life. In real life, she was gentle and cute. In the internet world, she was the number one cult fan.
Anna was also saying, âYu Huang! Is Professor Sheng really going to do a live broadcast? Did he see those Weibo comments and decide to explain everything himself?â
Su Qianqian said, âDamn, Master Sheng is going to do a live broadcast. Yu Huang, do you think Master Sheng was angered by what happened today and decided to do a live broadcast to diss you?â
Xiao Shu said, âYu Huang, Professor Sheng is so manly.â
Mrs. Sheng said, âMy son has grown up and knows how to dote on his wife. Iâm very relieved.â
Sheng Yang said, âSis-in-law, is my brother really going to do a live-stream? Will you guys do it together, or will he do it alone?â
There were so many WeChat messages that Yu Huang couldnât read them all.
Yu Huang quickly read the message and put down her phone in confusion. She looked up at Sheng Xiao, who was rinsing his mouth. She asked in confusion, âWhat live broadcast?â
âHuh?â Sheng Xiao picked up a napkin and wiped his mouth. âWhat did you say?â
Yu Huang tapped her finger on the phone screen and said, âYang Yang, Senior Yin Rong, and the others are all sending messages asking me about a live-stream. You want to start a live-stream?â
Sheng Xiao was surprised. âThey know so quickly?â
âSo you really want to do a live broadcast?â
âYes.â Sheng Xiao got up and walked to Yu Huang. He pulled her to take a walk. âI thought about it. Thereâs nothing easier than me explaining myself on a live-stream.â
âBut youâre Sheng Xiao.â Yu Huang was frustrated when she thought about how Sheng Xiao was going to start a live broadcast for those stupid things. âYou donât have to explain to those keyboard warriors. They are just bored. When we get married, they will have nothing to say.â
Sheng Xiao said, âYouâre wrong. If I know that youâre being slandered, but Iâm indifferent, what type of person am I?â
âSoon, Iâll be your husband. Itâs my responsibility to protect your innocence,â he said. âToday, someone slandered you. If I didnât stand up to protect you, they would only think that the rumors were true and that I really didnât care about you. In the future, they might even use words to hurt you.â
âAnd I married you to make you happy, not to let you be suspected and slandered because of me.â
Therefore, the live broadcast tonight had to be carried on.
Yu Huang was happy to hear Sheng Xiaoâs words. âItâs good that you can live-stream and explain everything. But, youâre Supreme Master Sheng. Youâre the idol of many young people. If you broadcast, youâll break the barrier between you and them. Itâs likeâ¦â
Yu Huang thought for a moment and concluded, âItâs like an immortal accidentally entering the human world.â
âIâm not an immortal.â Sheng Xiao lowered his head and said to Yu Huang, âI donât want to be anyoneâs idol. I just want to be your man.â
Yu Huangâs heart raced.
She was already an old monster. Hearing such sweet words from a young man made her feel a little shy.
Seeing that Yu Huang was shy, Sheng Xiao asked Yu Huang, âDo you want to take a night cruise with me?â
There was a Lovers Lake in front of the house. The weather was good today, and visibility was high at night. One could see the stars in the sky, so it was suitable for a night cruise.
âOkay.â
There was a small boat by the river. Sheng Xiao rowed the boat himself. Yu Huang sat on the boat and stared at the swaying lake. She asked Sheng Xiao, âAre there lotus roots in the lake?â
âYes.â Sheng Xiao said, âEvery summer, the lotus flowers will bloom. The scenery will be better.â
During this season, the lotus leaves had just emerged from the water, and there were no lotus flower buds yet. Yu Huang thought of a delicacy. She said, âThis season, itâs most suitable to eat lotus root tips.â
Sheng Xiao had never eaten it before. âWhatâs that?â
âItâs the tender shoot of a lotus root. Itâs only as thick as a finger and has a crisp taste.â As she spoke, Yu Huang tucked her skirt into her panties and jumped into the lotus root pool.
She bent down and held the lotus root pool for a moment before taking out a lotus root tip that was as thick as a thumb from the mud.
After placing the lotus root tip on the boat, Yu Huang bent down and continued plucking the lotus root tip.
Sheng Xiao looked at the sky speechlessly and sighed. âI brought you to see the stars and the moon, but you jumped into the lotus pond to dig mud. Whereâs the fun in that?â
Yu Huang said, âShut up!â
Yu Huang played in the mud for half an hour and found more than twenty lotus roots. Then, she returned home with Sheng Xiao. She washed the mud on her legs with the lake water before putting down her skirt and returning to the house with Sheng Xiao.
After entering the house, Yu Huang handed the lotus root tip to Chef and told him the specific cooking method of this thing. Then, she ran upstairs to take a shower.
Sheng Xiao looked at the time. It was already half past nine.
He walked to the kitchen. The chef was arranging the lotus root tips that the Young Madam had brought back when he suddenly heard the Young Master say from behind, âTell me the cooking method Young Madam mentioned just now.â
The chef quickly stood up and told Sheng Xiao. âThe Young Madam said that after this thing is washed, it can be cut diagonally or directly into a finger-long strip of stir-fry. When itâs ready, remember to add a spoonful of vinegarâ¦â
Sheng Xiao said, âAlright, go back and rest.â
âYes, Young Master.â
The chef didnât dare to ask Sheng Xiao what the cooking method was. She walked out of the kitchen and said good night to the butler. Then, she left the villa with the other servants and went to the residence in the backyard.
Sheng Xiao opened Weibo on his phone and pointed at the small option for a live-stream. He said to the butler, âUncle Kai, Iâm going to do a live-stream later. Help me film it.â
Without a live-streaming stent, he could only trouble the butler to film it.
Butler Sheng Kai had killed people with a knife before, but had never done a live-stream. His hands trembled as he asked humbly, âHow do I film it?â
Sheng Xiao turned on the camera again and turned on the camera function. He said to Butler Sheng Kai, âUse this to look for a feel first.â
âYes, Young Master.â
Sheng Kai was slightly shorter than Sheng Xiao. He realized that Sheng Xiao wasnât as handsome and tall on camera as he was in real life.
Sheng Kai pulled a stool and placed it behind him. He sat on the stool and filmed Sheng Xiao. He realized that the proportion of Sheng Xiaoâs body in the camera had been lengthened, making his legs longer, his waist thinner, and his shoulders broader.
At 9:58 PM, Sheng Xiao turned on the live broadcast camera.
The netizens who had been in the live-stream room saw that Sheng Xiao had entered his Weibo live-stream room two minutes in advance. Their comments started flooding the screen.
The first comment said, âGreetings, Supreme Master Sheng!â
The second comment said, âGreetings, Supreme Master Sheng!â
