Chapter 219: Who’s Most Popular in the Monster Family?

Chapter 219: Who’s Most Popular in the Monster Family?

Hearing that it was related to Sixth Liu and Pan Zhaodi, Su Yang slowed down his pace, wanting to hear what else the aunts had to say.

However, they just seemed to repeat what had been said.

Some said Pan Zhaodi doesn’t act like a woman at home and deserved to get cheated on. Others said Sixth Liu was a bad guy, who still cheated with another woman despite having such a beautiful woman doting on him at home.

Anyway, these were all talk and everyone had their own view of the matter.

After listening for a while, Su Yang felt bored. After all, listening was not as good as seeing it with your own eyes. He was more of a silent onlooker when it came to local gossip.

When he arrived at Sixth Liu’s flat, Su Yang was still thinking since he didn’t know which flat Sixth Liu lived in.

However, he immediately recognized Sixth Liu’s home when he saw all the broken windows as he looked up.

Through the broken glass, he could still see the smashed refrigerator and the crumbling kitchen hood inside.

Su Yang cautiously went upstairs. Seeing that the door was open, he poked his head in to look, and saw Pan Zhaodi sitting on the bench with a frosty face, looking at the wall in front of her.

Next to her was a couch lying in a big pile of trash that looked truly pitiful. However, unlike what Su Yang imagined, Pan Zhaodi neither had messed up hair nor was she as hysterical as a woman who had just been cheated on like in the movies. She merely sat there silently.

That time had probably passed.

Perhaps, a martial arts practitioner had a particularly keen sense of the space around them. Su Yang just looked inside twice, and Pan Zhaodi shot a gaze as sharp as a knife straight at him.

Seeing Su Yang, her gaze softened a little. “What are you doing here?”

Once discovered, Su Yang stopped disguising himself and replied, “I heard about you guys, so I came to take a look.” As he cautiously walked in, he tried not to step on the remains of the furniture and appliances on the floor.

When he entered their home, Su Yang took a look around as there was no place for him to sit.

Pan Zhaodi looked at him, raised her hand, and punched the sofa next to the one she was sitting on into pieces. Then, she pulled out a board from it, and threw it to Su Yang for him to sit on.

Su Yang was speechless.

‘Forget it.’ As long as there was someplace to sit, he should be grateful.

Sitting on the board, Su Yang was dwarfed next to Pan Zhaodi. He looked up at her and asked, “What’s going on between you and... What’s going on with Brother Liu?”

Pan Zhaodi pursed her lips and remained silent.

‘Man, this woman is as boring as she is silent.’

After a moment, Pan Zhaodi replied, “Accompany me for a round of boxing.”

Su Yang was speechless.

He was just a silent observer! He didn’t even manage to take out his bench and activate any skills! Why was she suddenly requesting him to accompany her in her training?!

However... Facing a woman who had just been cheated on, Su Yang couldn’t really find the words to refuse her request...

He looked at Pan Zhaodi’s flaming eyes and carefully stood up. “Can you be gentle?”

Pan Zhao Di nodded intensely. “Yeah!”

‘Why doesn’t it feel like a real promise?’

At the same time, a bell was heard in Su Yang’s mind — [You’ve triggered a new random task.]

Su Yang clicked on it — [Help Pan Zhaodi soothe her mind].

‘I’m not going to be able to do that.’

This time, instead of taking Pan Zhaodi to a small park, they went to a nearby gym.

With the ring and protective gear, Su Yang began to train with Pan Zhaodi.

Fortunately, the boxing practice she referred to was not sparring with Su. Rather... Su Yang was like live target practice for her.

He was like a living entity whose only purpose was to hold a target to block Pan Zhaodi’s punches and kicks as she vented her anger.

To be honest, aside from the fact that Pan Zhaodi was a bit too strong and could easily cause him to fly off the ring, this was still much safer than fighting directly against her as an enemy.

Pan Zhaodi was miserable as she punched him. She pursed her lips and continuously punched and kicked like a robot.

It was rather peculiar in the gym. The boxers don’t should but instead, the trainers who were getting punched would continuously get punched while they shouted, “Keep going!”

After that, the cycle would continue all over again, “Bish! Bang! Boom!” Slow but powerful strikes were thrown non-stop.

The two of them had been practicing for two hours. Su Yang was wasting away all over, and Pan Zhaodi was sweating profusely.

After the fight, she took off her gloves and threw them on the ground. “Thank you.” Then, she walked out of the ring.

Su Yang sat on the ground and waved his hand weakly. “You’re welcome.”

When he raised his head, Pan Zhaodi had already disappeared, and he didn’t know where she went.

Su Yang, who was exhausted, was in no mood to care about her. Everyone was an adult as it was kind enough that he helped her vent her anger since they were friends. Did he need to worry about every single thing? After all, it wasn’t like she was a child.

So, Su Yang took a shower at the gym and returned home with heavy steps.

When he got home, Su Yang collapsed on the bed and called out weakly, “Little Deeny, Little Deeny...”

Little Deeny flew down from upstairs in the air. “What’s wrong, master?”

Su Yang asked for a massage.

Under Little Dee’s gentle little hands, Su Yang relieved his body’s fatigue.

After a while, Su Yang slowed down and asked, “By the way, Little Dee, how’s our video?”

Little Deeny replied happily. “It’s great. Master’s idea is superb, and the three videos increased the traffic of our Monster Family. I’ve now set up a short video account for the Monster Family in TikTok, and a channel for the Monster Family in B Station. I’ve also posted three videos to the hundreds of thousands of fans I have.”

Su Yang was a little surprised to see Little Deeny. In just a little over a week, Deeny achieved such amazing feats! Little Dee had really impressed him.

Seeing Su Yang looking at himself, Little Dee smiled, then said, “Master, guess who has the most followers in the Monster Family now?”

Su Yang thought Gru was cute and adorable, so he was probably the most attractive to female fans. “Gru?”

Deeny shook her head. “Nope.”

‘Not Gru?’ Su Yang wondered.

“What about Pool?” Pool was a posh looking guy so he’s got to be popular.

Deeny still shook her head.

‘Am I still wrong?’ Su Yang was a little surprised. “It’s not Little Hus, is it? Little Hus acts crazy every day. Maybe people like things like these now...”

Little Deeny still shook her head.

Su Yang couldn’t guess anymore, so he could only guess blindly. “No. 17?”

“Nope.”

“Dagger Girl?”

“Nope.”

“Sanque?”

“It’s still not right.”

After seeing Su Yang run into a brick wall, Dee smiled and said, “It’s Satantan, Satantan.”

‘Satantan?’

Su Yang reacted. “It was a monster? It’s a statue isn’t it!”

Seeing Su Yang’s confused face, Little Deeny explained, “Actually, I didn’t make it an actor in the first place. However, this guy had a strong desire to perform and would come to the scene every time we were shooting a scene. I didn’t care at first, but then I realized.... It turned out that it would deliberately change from a statue to a bat at the end of our filming, and then show its scarlet eyes to give itself a close-up.”

Su Yang was speechless.

This forced addition to the scenes was definitely not his intention.

Deeny continued while laughing. “I was very angry at the beginning, but my post-production skills are limited. So, I’ll only use original materials and tutorials by the owners. It’s also a good idea to know what you’re doing. After the reshoots, it still deliberately messed up. Another two or three times later, I had no choice but to process the video of it and upload that as well.

“Nobody would’ve guessed that quite a few people commented that it was quite cute and interesting. It did make people feel like it was clearly ‘stupid as hell’ but it still seemed to want to pretend that it was the Monster King.

“Then, for the next two issues, I simply included it in the video. It wasn’t given a role and was freely allowed to play with itself at the end of a shoot.

“I didn’t expect... It to grow in popularity. Now it’s got a fan club of fans called... Tea Egg.”

Su Yang was speechless

This troupe was quite expensive. Ordinary people couldn’t afford it.

Little Deeny smiled, “Although it had the least appearances in the drama but the popularity of our drama depended on its popularity. I didn’t expect Monster Family to get so famous after our episode and for Satantan to help in driving up our traffic and viewership.”

Su Yang lifted his head to look at the living room coffee table but Satantan wasn’t there. Su Yang waved his hand and an interface appeared in front of him. He switched the view around a few rooms and found Satantan in the bathroom.

Satantan was on the sink in the bathroom, picking up a toothbrush with its wings before brushing its teeth for a while. Then, it rinsed its mouth, spat out the water, and grinned to reveal two bat-tipped teeth in its mouth that shone while looking incomparably... Silly.

This bat, with a silly name, was also not that energetic.

Su Yang turned off the interface and decided to ignore it.

The entertainment industry was like this. In a drama or short video, the most popular one wasn’t necessarily the main character, but a nobody.

Sometimes, despite using your resources to boost the protagonist as hard as you could, the protagonist still wouldn’t receive the kind of attention from viewers like you expected. Then, a simple sidekick who showed up out of nowhere could suddenly become a hit instead.

This world never made sense.

The next day, Tang Dafa once again came to Qidian E-commerce and brought two million along with him.

Su Yang received the wealthy lord with a smile plastered on his face.

Tang Dafa was lightning fast at paying up. He transferred the money to Su Yang without chatting for more than a few minutes.

Su Yang’s smile was almost like a flower as he kept patting Tang Dafa’s shoulders. He looked at this fat man and found him to be more and more pleasing to the eye.

Tang Dafa was realistic but so was Su Yang. “Brother Tang, don’t worry. I’ll only need this money for a couple of months. After the company generates some revenue, I’ll pay you back the money two months later!”

Tang Dafa’s small eyes looked at Su Yang and wondered. ‘Looking at Su Yang, could this money still come back? Could it be that Su Yang was just fooling himself?’

He tested the waters. “Then Brother Su, would you like to leave an IOU? I’m controlled by my wife so it’d help me explain where the money went.”

Su Yang didn’t have any hesitation. “No problem.”

After all, he was really just thinking of the money as a temporary loan to get through the hard times.

Then, the two of them wrote an IOU, stating that Su Yang had borrowed two million from Tang Dafa. On the IOU, Su Yang wanted to write that he would pay it back within four months, but Tang Dafa said there was no need to be in such a hurry and that half a year would do.

The two argued for a long time, and finally agreed to write the contract terms that the money would be repaid within half a year.

With the IOU in hand, Tang Dafa confirmed that Su Yang was really going to pay back the money, and his impression of Su Yang changed a lot. He thought that Su Yang was a second generation wealthy person who wanted black money. Now, looking closer at this person in front of him... It would seem like he was quite the good character.

However, whether he was truly good or was acting still depended on the events that would unfold six months later. After all, even if Su Yang didn’t return the money, Tang Dafa wouldn’t dare to ask Su Yang for it...

Su Yang’s impression of Tang Dafa also changed a lot. In fact, at the beginning of this meeting, Su Yang used the hourglass on Tang Dafa, wanting to see if there was any trap when Tang Dafa offered to lend him the money. However, it would seem that there weren’t any aces up his sleeve.

Tang Dafa simply thought that he was a person with wide connections, so he spent money to befriend him.

As for this beautiful misunderstanding, Su Yang didn’t bother to explain to him.

After all, both sides could keep beautiful illusions for each other.

After taking the money, Su Yang transferred the money to the company’s account so that the finance department could use it for the company’s expenses. Of course, this money was Su Yang’s personal loan to the company, and the company had to pay it back.

With the money, the company was finally considered to be on track with some new office supplies and company benefits. Fruits, meal, and car allowances could be arranged for and distributed.

And Huaxia was a humane society, if you wanted to talk shop, you always had to talk at the wine or dinner table. This was especially so for the likes of Junqing and Qidian E-Commerce since they were an amalgamation of the new and old. There was a need to change the contracts of old and treat the new guests to dinner. Before, employees had to spend on behalf of the company in advance and the company would have no money for reimbursement. Now, even this had changed.

With the company taking steps to go into its regular business operations, Su Yang could finally divert his energy and time away from the company to do something he likes, like adding points!

When he returned home that night, Su Yang laid on the couch and opened the system.

After a week of saving, the system store’s point coins had grown from 103 to 899.

However, this was due to the fact that Su Yang had used the [Verbal Cannon] ability a few times recently. If he didn’t use the [Verbal Cannon] ability, he could end up with a little over 900 coins.

The gold quest was also almost at the midway mark: (4425/10000). Based on the 800+ new coins added each week now, it would be almost two more months before he could add points again.

However, now that Junqing was being integrated into Qidian E-commerce Business, the acquisition of points and influence was expected to be much faster after the integration was complete, perhaps in a month or so.

Su Yang took a look at the system store, and this week’s system items have also been refreshed.

Random Points x 2.

Guardian talisman x 1.

The recipe item was a dirty looking teddy bear. Su Yang had no idea what it was.

Su Yang had completed Pan Zhaodi’s quest yesterday and already had a random point that could be used as a way to deal with unexpected situations.

So he purchased a random point again, ready to add points to Deeny’s rabbit.

Since the last incident, Su Yang had also changed a bit. He would make time to complete things like this promise to Little Deeny as soon as he could.

After making his decision, Su Yang climbed up from the sofa, went to Little Deeny’s room and knocked on the door.

Creak!

The door was opened from inside as Little Deeny peeked out to look looked at Su Yang. “Master?”

Su Yang looked at her nervous look and asked, “What are you doing?”

Deeny quickly replied, “Nothing~”

‘Nothing?’ Su Yang looked at Little Deeny’s face. ‘If it was nothing, then why are you looking at the sky? You have a really awkward look on your face.’

Su Yang didn’t bother to pry into this little girl’s secret so he held out his hand. “Give me your rabbit and I’ll give it an extra point.”

Little Deeny was surprised. “Really?”

Su Yang nodded.

Little Deeny flashed into the room, and then closed the door loudly.

Bang!

A moment later, she opened the door again, stretched out a hand that was grabbing onto the rabbit’s ears, and handed it to Su Yang, “Here, Master. My family’s fatty is in your hands, you’ve got to treat it well.”
