Chapter 15 Hidden Mission
Getting married but not feeling happy, this unusual event immediately attracted the audience's interest. Before Xia Liang opened his mouth, the barrage started.
[Fuck! A rich man came to the anchor's live broadcast room to send rockets! ]
[Hurry up and hug the anchor! A rocket is worth 20 cents! You can get 10 cents if you split it in half! ]
[What's wrong, brother, are you busy with the wedding? It's okay to be tired, and it will be over after the marriage. ]
[Yes, as a man, it's okay to be tired. Shouldn't you be happy when you think that you will have a family soon? ]
[Think open-mindedly, what's on your mind? In terms of feelings, although the anchor is still young, as a sea king, it's no problem for me to enlighten you. ]
[That's right, at worst, we can break up and let the dog anchor teach you to find a new one. ]
…………
The barrage floated by, and Xia Liang also became interested, but not for the gift.
He sent a video link to this audience directly.
After a while, the video link was connected, and a man was sitting on the ground. He was about 26 years old, which was originally an age of vigor and striving to move forward.
But the fatigue on his face could not be concealed.
Looking at the dark circles under the man's eyes that could not be covered by beauty, Xia Liang was still a little worried.
"Brother, it seems that you have been staying up late for a long time. Otherwise, you should have a good sleep and talk about it tomorrow. If you continue like this, I am really afraid that you will die suddenly."
The man in the video smiled and shook his head, his voice full of fatigue.
"It's okay. I'm used to it. I don't think physical fatigue is a big deal, but mental and spiritual fatigue makes me feel suffocated."
As soon as the man finished speaking, the voice of the system suddenly sounded in Xia Liang's head.
[Ding—Congratulations to the host for triggering the hidden work task: Persuasion
Task description: Please ask the anchor to persuade the consumer in front of the screen to escape from an unhappy marriage.
Task reward: Qingjiu Central Villa*1, 50 work value, gene potion*1. 】
"Hidden mission! It's actually a hidden mission!"
Xia Liang was overjoyed, but the generous mission reward made Xia Liang realize that this matter should not be simple, so he put on a good mood.
Xia Liang couldn't wait to ask.
"If my guess is correct, what happened recently that made you feel so tired?"
The man nodded, and without being pretentious, he started to talk about what made him physically and mentally exhausted.
"My name is Liu Ruo, I'm 28 years old this year. In order to pay for my wedding, I worked a total of 36 hours in two days. During this period, I only had two simple boxed lunches. Except for going to the bathroom, I didn't leave the chair the whole time. It was not until it was getting dark at night that I finally made a satisfactory plan for the customer. The long work made me extremely tired. As soon as I got home, I fell asleep drowsily. However, not long after, I was awakened by a phone call..."
When Liu Ruo said this, the audience in the live broadcast room felt very sympathetic.
【Oh my god, brother! You can't be so greedy for money! 】
【Yes, you accidentally went there, but you have nothing. 】
【Wait? Brother, you have been working for so long, where is your girlfriend? Doesn't she persuade you? 】
【Maybe her girlfriend is also busy with the marriage. 】
…………
When Liu Ruo saw this barrage, he didn't say much and continued to speak.
"I woke up in a daze, and when I looked at my phone, the call had been hung up. There were more than 20 missed calls, 20 of which were from her, my fiancée, and the rest were from my future mother-in-law."
Liu Ruo hadn't finished speaking when the live broadcast room became noisy again.
【What did I say! Since the man is so busy, the woman will not be idle. 】
【Look, the mother-in-law called to say hello, all these hard work is worth it. 】
【Congratulations brother for finding true love! 】
【Congratulations brother! 】
Looking at the row of barrages of congratulations on the barrage, Xia Liang didn't say anything. This matter would not be so simple. As expected, Liu Ruo shook his head in self-mockery.
"I was just about to call her when she called again. Before I asked her what happened, she angrily asked me why I didn't answer the phone. I could only explain that I was too tired after working for more than 30 hours without a break, and fell asleep when I got home, so I didn't hear it."
[This... should be forgivable. ]
[After all, she didn't know that big brother was so tired. ]
[Big brother probably didn't want her to worry, so he didn't tell her. ]
[If that's the case, big brother, forgive her. It's just a few hours, she doesn't know. ]
[Men, be more generous...]
[Yes, don't be so stingy. ]
Seeing such barrages passing by, Xia Liang frowned and said in a deep voice.
"Don't let people forgive you easily without experiencing other people's pain. This simple truth is known to every senior high school student. You ask others to forgive before they have finished talking. What kind of ghost is forgiveness? Ignore them, big brother, continue talking."
Originally, Liu Ruo didn't know how to continue after seeing the barrage, but Xia Liang's words calmed him down.
"Thank you anchor. After explaining the reason, I originally thought that my girlfriend cared about me and asked me if I was tired and if I wanted to sleep for a while. But it turned out not to be the case. She only replied, oh, okay, I was still there at that time. She thought I had heard wrong and before she could react, she told me that she was shopping for home appliances. The 85-inch TV she liked before was now in stock. She asked me to return the 75-inch TV I ordered and come over to pay."
Speaking of this, Liu Ruo's voice couldn't help but raise a bit.
"You know, our home is not a luxury home. The living room is not particularly big. A 75-inch one is enough. There is no need to buy an 85-inch one. I patiently explained to him, but she didn't listen to anything she said."
"She asked me to come over and pay quickly. I had no choice but to agree, but seeing as it was already getting late, it would take an hour for me to get there by car. The shopping malls were closed when I got there. I had no choice but to discuss it with her. Let’s see if we can go shopping together tomorrow. It happens to be the weekend off tomorrow, and I’m really too tired today.”
It's true that he was too tired. After saying this, Xia Liang's heart sank a bit. It was true. Xia Liang could also feel Liu Ruo's fatigue through the screen.
A man who was only a few years older than himself was overwhelmed by work and preparations for marriage. Xia Liang wanted to say something, but he held back when Liu Ruo spoke again.
"I originally thought she would understand me and say to me gently, "Husband, you have worked hard, then you can go to sleep and buy it when you have time," but she didn't. She said to me angrily, "What are you doing now?" Are you coming? She hung up the phone before I could reply."
