Chapter 13
Secret Destruction
Zhu Fei sat up straight, then widened her eyes and covered her mouth.
“Ahem, Zhu Fei, you’re here.” The middle-aged man in the holographic silver screen coughed lightly. Only then did the people in the meeting come back to their senses.
As their manager, it was rare for the middle-aged man to be so engrossed in a live broadcast. He was a little embarrassed to be called back to his senses by Zhu Fei, but he chose to prioritize the overall situation and explained, “This is a potential streamer that our company’s higher-ups recently discovered. My Child Is The Best does classical food live broadcasts like you.”
Why was it her again?
Zhu Fei felt that something was wrong.
[My child fed me. I’m so happy.]
[This shrimp tastes superb.]
[The federal research institute charges five interstellar coins per catty. You’re welcome!]
Zhu Fei saw that the speed at which these comments appeared wasn’t slower than that of her live stream, but the number of people watching the live stream was much fewer than hers.
The sensational feeling her taste buds experienced just now gave her a bad feeling.
Zhu Fei frowned and subconsciously bit her nails. She didn’t notice that the meeting room had resumed its discussion.
The company manager suddenly said to her, “The company’s recipe was obtained at a high price, so it’s impossible to announce it. Zhu Fei, we suggest that you learn from her. We’ll arrange for a child to live stream with you.”
“What?” When Zhu Fei heard this plan, she felt exasperated.
They wanted her to live stream with a child who only knew how to cause trouble? Impossible!
“I refuse,” Zhu Fei said without hesitation.
However, a colleague whispered, “She’s almost past her prime. The company is helping her, but she’s still so cocky.”
Zhu Fei frowned and was about to flare up when she saw the manager looking at her.
She could only hold back her temper and say, “Manager, I don’t need a child to help me get sponsorships. I can compete with her with my strength.”
As soon as she said this, the entire conference room fell silent.
The manager waved his hand and his expression became serious. “Alright, do as you see fit.”
After the meeting ended, Zhu Fei punched the sofa angrily.
The assistant immediately handed her water. “Sister Zhu, calm down. The company is doing this for your own good.”
“For me?” Zhu Fei sneered. “They’re just afraid that the newcomer’s fame will surpass mine and all their previous efforts will be in vain. Don’t make them sound so righteous.”
“Yes, with your fame, it won’t be a problem for you to enter the food competition. As for that newbie…” The assistant had some concerns.
“She’s indeed an opponent, but it’s a pity.” Zhu Fei took a sip of water. At this moment, Liao Ning’s live broadcast began to play on her computer.
“Dried fish. Freshwater creatures. No quality inspection. Not for sale.” After she muttered a few words, she suddenly had an idea.
Immediately, she waved at her assistant and said, “Let the paid commenters defame her with these points. Also, investigate her background. Then, we’ll find an opportunity to attack her.”
“Yes.” The assistant immediately went to do it.
However, he still prepared Liao Ning’s live stream first. It had to be known that newcomers who offended Sister Zhu wouldn’t have a good ending, so if Liao Ning really fell from grace, at least he would have a copy of the video to watch.
After dealing with it, the assistant left the room.
At this moment, Zhu Fei lit up her e-cigarette and sneered sinisterly in the dim room.
“Achoo.”
In the middle of the night, Liao Nai sneezed loudly in his wolf form.
Liao Ning was awoken and she wiped his nose for him. “What’s wrong? Do you have a cold?”
At this moment, she vaguely felt that the temperature in the room seemed to be colder than before and there seemed to be the sound of metal clashing downstairs.
Liao Nai’s ears flicked and he immediately asked, “Are there wild beasts?”
Liao Ning was vigilant. With her sensitivity from surviving the apocalypse, she knew that someone had come.
But who would come to this deserted place?
“Wait for me in the house. Don’t come out,” Liao Ning said. Then, she took out a dagger from the bedside table and hid it behind her back as she secretly went downstairs.
Worried, Liao Nai secretly followed.
“Do you know how to do it? You’re really useless!”
“You’re the useless one. Go away. You’re getting in the way. These things are all treasures. We’ll be rich if we sell them.”
As soon as she left the room, Liao Nai heard the voices of a man and a woman.
How could he not remember the voice that had haunted him for five years?
The woman outside was his mother!
