After chatting for a while, the number of viewers in the live broadcast room had already risen to five thousand. Wan Tong began to introduce a niche brand of lipstick she held in her hand and tried on the different colors one by one.
Wan Tong first removed the lipstick from her lips, revealing their naturally pale color.
Her lip line was very distinct, two thin pieces, even when not smiling, the corners of her lips were slightly upturned, which were the standard smiling lips. The upper lip’s lip bead was more prominent than normal, slightly curled, very sexy.
She tried on ten different shades of lipstick one by one. Each movement carried a lazy charm, yet it was all perfectly executed. The lipstick applied smoothly and evenly, regardless of the color, and it complemented her well.
In the barrage comments, almost all one could see were [Buy! Buy! Buy!] and [Can we get the anchor’s lips shipped to us?]
In the dimly lit room, only the faint blue light emanating from the computer screen was visible. Shao Heng glanced disdainfully at the barrage comments.
But when he thought about the woman who sat across from him every day, smacking her lips, it felt like his heart had been teased, and his blood rushed to his head.
Her lips were genuinely sensual, especially her lip beads… They always made him want to touch them.
Why could someone’s lips be like that?
Shao Heng’s heart suddenly raced. He closed the live stream page and lay back on the bed.
Staring at the dim ceiling, he suddenly remembered something and took out his phone.
After opening WeChat, he realized that there was no activity at all.
He rarely added people on WeChat, or rather, he hardly used WeChat at all. Usually, if Li Zhi needed to contact him, she’d just call or send a text message, and he found chatting annoying.
He remained motionless, staring at his phone for a long time, but still saw no signs of any activity. A sense of urgency welled up inside him.
She had been messing with his phone for so long, yet in his list of contacts, there were still only a few people.
She wasn’t there.
After Wan Tong finished her live stream, Tu Mi came to find her.
The two chatted endlessly, and Wan Tong completely forgot to check her phone. However, just before going to bed, her doorbell suddenly rang.
Tu Mi went to open the door and saw a tall and handsome young man standing at the doorway. She was somewhat surprised but quickly realized something, and her expression suddenly became a bit curious.
She had watched Tongtong’s livestreams, and recently, Tongtong had been talking about her little brother neighbor, praising how good he was and how delicious his cooking was…
“Are you… Tongtong’s neighbor?”
Tu Mi was 1.68 meters tall, with a neat short haircut, a small face, and big eyes. She belonged to the intelligent and cute type, and her popularity with the opposite sex was undeniable.
But the young man in front of her just furrowed his brows, glanced at her, and then averted his gaze, discreetly looking behind her.
As for who he was looking for, she didn’t need to think twice.
“Where is she?” Shao Heng didn’t see the person he was looking for and spoke while still staring at what was behind Tu Mi.
“Who are you talking about?” Tu Mi pretended to be confused.
“Gu Wantong.” Shao Heng impatiently glared at her but didn’t push past her to enter on his own.
Tu Mi couldn’t help but click her tongue inwardly but silently gave him two extra points in her mind. He seemed quite persistent, like a little wolf.
Maybe he could win over Tongtong?
Tu Mi cleared her throat and took a step back, “Tongtong just finished showering. You can come in first, talk to her about whatever you need.”
Shao Heng seemed to hesitate for a moment, but in the next second, he walked in.
Meanwhile, Tu Mi quickly entered the room and saw Wan Tong stumbling out of the bathroom, still a bit dazed from the steam. Tu Mi hurriedly pushed Wan Tong out to the living room, “Tongtong, someone’s looking for you. I’m going to bed first; you two talk.”
Wan Tong was puzzled when she was pushed out by Tu Mi. Then, she looked at the young man standing next to the sofa, “A’Heng, why are you here?”
Shao Heng fixed his gaze on her. His Adam’s apple involuntarily bobbed, and then his whole body stiffened.
She had indeed just taken a shower…
Her hair was wrapped in a towel on top of her head, revealing a petite yet exquisite face. The corners of her eyes was flushed, made her appear even more enchanting. The orange pajamas she wore couldn’t possibly hide those enticing curves…
Her little mouth moved, but he didn’t catch a word she said. His mind was buzzing with vibrations.
“I…” He began to speak, but found his voice unnaturally hoarse. He clenched his fist forcefully to steady himself. “I came to ask you, what would you like for breakfast tomorrow?”
Wan Tong blinked her eyes, struggled to shift closer to the sofa, getting closer to him.
“I’m fine with anything.”
Shao Heng never used to ask her about anything beforehand. But whatever he made, it suited her taste perfectly.
Before she could finish speaking, Shao Heng’s expression turned sour. He turned his head away and said, “So annoying. From now on, you should tell me what you want to eat beforehand.”
Wan Tong opened her mouth, but before she could say anything, he continued, “So I don’t have to come here every day to ask you. Do you think I’m your servant?”
He finished speaking and gave her another glance with his dark eyes, which seemed to hold some fluctuations.
However, Wan Tong didn’t immediately grasp his meaning, so she said softly, “I’m sorry, I’ll let you know beforehand from now on.”
Shao Heng : “…”
His dark eyes gave her another piercing look, and the phone he was holding started to feel slightly damp.
After a few seconds of silence, Shao Heng coldly snorted and took a step back. “Then I’ll leave first.”
Wan Tong looked at his back and suddenly remembered something. “Oh, by the way, A’Heng, I won’t come over for breakfast tomorrow. I’m going out to eat with my friend.”
Shao Heng stopped in his tracks, looked back, glanced at her hands and legs, and his thin lips moved. “Up to you.”
After seeing Shao Heng off, Tu Mi came running out and bumped Wan Tong’s shoulder. “Wow, this young man is something!”
“It’s a little brother,” corrected Wan Tong.
Tu Mi squinted slyly. “But he doesn’t seem that young from what I saw…”
Wan Tong : “…” Did she think he’s a kindergartener?
Half an hour later, Wan Tong opened WeChat and suddenly remembered something she had forgotten.
She had forgotten to accept the friend request from the boss…
So when the boss came over suddenly earlier, it was highly likely that he wanted to remind her of this, right?
Thinking about Shao Heng’s expression just now, Wan Tong became even more certain of this speculation. He had clearly been dropping hints, but she hadn’t understood!
*Ding dong*, a soft sound came from his phone. Shao Heng suddenly jumped up from the bed and grabbed the phone beside him.
The phone was stuck, WeChat was stuck. It took him ten minutes and two restarts before he saw a new profile picture in his friends list.
Gu Wantong.
The profile picture was a side view drawn with a ballpoint pen.
“Tsk.” Shao Heng tossed the phone aside and lay back on the bed.
But within two seconds, he reached out and grabbed the phone back into his hand, then clicked on that profile picture…
Shao Heng was never a internet addict, but on this night, he stared at the screen all night.
During the livestream for two hours in the evening, Wan Tong sold five thousand lipsticks in her livestream room, which was already considered a significant achievement for a newcomer to the e-commerce platform.
Wan Tong’s achievement was quickly reported to the company, and Zhang Jiajia also received the news.
This small brand had previously done a livestream with Zhang Jiajia, also for two hours, but at that time, she had only sold a little over two thousand lipsticks, not even half of what Wan Tong achieved!
After Wan Tong’s live broadcast, the small brand decided to entrust all their other products to Wan Tong!
When Zhang Jiajia learned about this, she was momentarily furious and vented her emotions on Weibo, implying that her company’s junior had repaid kindness with enmity by taking away her resources.
She had over two hundred thousand followers on Weibo and was usually very active on various platforms. After posting this on Weibo, she even included a beautiful photo of herself with closed eyes in sorrow. As a result, all her fans came out to comfort her, and they quickly discovered that the junior who had repaid kindness with enmity was none other than Gu Wantong.
Gu Wantong had more interactions with Zhang Jiajia than with anyone else, and both of them had promoted the same brand in the past. So, the ‘little ingrate’ mentioned in Zhang Jiajia’s Weibo was naturally Gu Wantong.
When Gu Wantong received Zhang Jiajia’s apology message, she realized that her Weibo had been taken over by Zhang Jiajia’s fans.
Zhang Jiajia had already deleted the venting Weibo post, but Zhang Jiajia’s fans were relentless. They continued to criticize Wan Tong in the comments on her Weibo, as if she had done something outrageous to Zhang Jiajia.
When Wan Tong started her live broadcast at night, she found that Zhang Jiajia’s fans were still coming to insult her. While her own fans tried to defend her, they were outnumbered, and bewildered viewers who saw the chaotic atmosphere in the live stream room didn’t want to stay either.
Wan Tong deliberately ignored those unfavorable comments, continued her livestream unaffectedly, and even managed to accurately identify the audience’s demands from the continuous stream of insults. She interacted with them, displaying remarkable perseverance.
After a two-hour livestream, Wan Tong became a hot topic on the trending list.
#The Anchor Cried In The End#
It turns out that someone uploaded a short video on Weibo. The anchor, despite being barefaced, possessed captivating beauty. Her voice was composed and pleasing, providing a comfortable experience. However, the barrage of comments in the live chat was harsh. As time went on, the anchor’s eyes gradually reddened, and her voice developed a slight nasal tone. Her originally gentle voice acquired a trembling quality. Nonetheless, throughout the entire livestream, she didn’t shed a tear. It wasn’t until the conclusion of the livestream, when she said, “See you all next time,” that she could no longer hold back her tears.
[Ah, the anchor’s mental strength is truly impressive. Enduring two hours while being criticized by others, except for the initial explanation, she never responded with any retorts. Her composure is truly remarkable!]
[Looking at the barrage, I’ve realized how ugly the hearts of these keyboard warriors are. The anchor explained at the beginning that it was the brand’s decision. Is it meaningful to berate someone like this in the livestream?]
[I just checked, those insulting viewers are actually fans of another anchor. It’s reported that a certain brand initially selected that other anchor to promote their products, then later chose Gu Wantong because of higher sales. However, the other anchor posted on Weibo due to dissatisfaction, which incited her fans. They not only criticized Gu Wantong’s Weibo but also caused trouble in Gu Wantong’s livestream.]
[If it were me, I would have fired back a long time ago. However, if the anchor engaged in a verbal confrontation with the viewers, it might not have a positive impact. Gu Wantong’s mental strength is truly admirable. Even in that situation, she spoke fluently and maintained control over her emotions. I find it really impressive!]
[I’ve become a fan of this anchor. She’s a hidden gem! It’s astonishing that she’s actually studied broadcasting major, and her face is so stunning!
