Chapter 978: Chapter 978: The Late-Arrival Wealthy Big Brother
Jiangli stood firmly, looked at Fu Shiyan, and coughed, “Mr. Fu, well, I’ll head back first. You should go home early too.”
Fu Shiyan acknowledged with a gentle hum, raised his hand to smooth the stray hair by her ear, and said warmly, “Shall I come by to pick you up for dinner tomorrow?”
Jiangli was a bit surprised by Fu Shiyan’s sudden intimate gesture, paused awkwardly for a second, and said, “We’ll see, if there’s time…”
Fu Shiyan didn’t insist, smiled slightly, “Alright, I’ll watch you go in.”
Upon hearing this, Jiangli felt as if she’d been granted amnesty and quickly walked into the Taoist Temple, feeling like she was fleeing the scene.
Fu Shiyan saw this and chuckled softly.
Xia Xin didn’t dare to look at Fu Shiyan. Seeing Jiangli run off, he slipped away as well.
Fu Shiyan watched Jiangli enter the Taoist Temple before driving away.
Jiangli returned to Jiaoyang Temple and soon calmed down. Seeing Xia Xin follow her in with a hesitant look, to avoid Xia Xin asking too many questions, she immediately told him to start the live stream.
Xia Xin had to swallow his words and start the live stream first.
It was a bit unexpected today. In Jiangli’s live stream room, even after a while, the mystery benefactor with the ID ‘I Like You’ who usually topped the charts hadn’t appeared.
The audience in the chat was a bit surprised.
[The big benefactor isn’t here today?]
[Couldn’t get a date with the Abbot and unfollowed?]
[Usually comes as soon as the stream starts, what’s up today?]
People were chatting away, but Jiangli didn’t mind and soon got to the main topic.
Xia Xin monitored the live stream while checking private messages, and some messages came through on WeChat.
They were from Yan Guofeng, saying they had returned home. After the check-up, although Yan Guowei had no physical issues, his intelligence couldn’t be restored, and his parents had chosen to accept it.
Yan Guofeng had sent the message to thank Jiangli once again. In any case, saving Yan Guowei’s life was already a blessing.
Xia Xin comforted him a bit with a few words and then ended the conversation.
As soon as Xia Xin looked up at the live stream, the mystery benefactor finally made a late entrance and started flooding the chat again.
[Wow… Speak of the devil!]
[As expected of a big shot, immediately gifting twenty Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady Order Tokens, that’s got to be worth millions, right?]
[So wealthy, so wealthy—]
[There are so many wealthy people in the world, why can’t there be one more of me?]
Jiangli watched the special effects in the live stream and routinely thanked, “Thank you ‘I Like You’ for the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady Order Tokens, but there’s no need to be so extravagant.”
Saying that, she shifted to the main point.
“Let’s start today’s lottery.”
At these words, the audience was too busy to pay attention to the big spender anymore and immediately began flooding the chat.
Once Jiangli thought it was about right, she asked Xia Xin to take a screenshot for the lottery.
Soon, five people were drawn.
They were all familiar faces in the live stream, but had never won before. Now that they were chosen, they were suddenly energized, rushing into Jiangli’s live stream and Xia Xin’s private messages.
After a while, Jiangli resolved the requests of the first three people.
But when it came to the fourth, Jiangli glanced at the birth details sent over and asked directly in the live stream, “Is someone called Huang Batian here?”
A single word quickly floated by in the chat: Present.
Jiangli said, “You’re seeking safety?”
Huang Batian: Yes.
Jiangli glanced at the content of the private messages Xia Xin received, “You said that lately you’ve been encountering some very strange things, like being seemingly pushed while crossing the street, or flower pots suddenly falling from above as you pass downstairs, almost hitting you? And there are many similar incidents?”
