Her words were well-chosen, and combined with Xu Qingzhu's voice, they had an unexpected effect.
Because Xu Qingzhu's voice is naturally cool and aloof, coupled with her cold and beautiful face, everyone originally imagined her to be a female CEO. However, Xu Qingzhu was a little nervous during her first live broadcast. She stumbled while speaking, then lowered her head and made a small gesture of biting her tongue, along with her deliberate smile.
She seems unusually adorable.
The "gap moe" (or "unexpected charm") is a popular way for celebrities to create a persona and attract fans, but unexpectedly, Xu Qingzhu mastered it without any instruction.
Liang Shi never intended to create a persona for Xu Qingzhu.
It's very simple. Xu Qingzhu is going to develop her career in the company. Her future blueprint is a business empire, not the cutthroat entertainment industry.
So there's absolutely no need for it.
But this is also an unexpected surprise.
After explaining that matter, Xu Qingzhu chatted with Yang Shuyan about the new autumn products.
She had someone bring over the new products that came out today, and said that some of them would be released gradually later, so please stay tuned.
She meticulously explained the name, style, and meaning of each product in front of the camera, while Yang Shuyan served as a suitable supporting actress, interjecting a few words at appropriate times.
The live stream achieved unexpected results, quickly becoming the most popular stream.
Aside from Yang Shuyan, who has a huge following, some people came specifically to see who the female protagonist at the center of the whirlwind that had been making headlines all day, only to find out... she's really good-looking.
This level of beauty is simply a blessing to the eyes of all mankind.
As a result, the comment section became a massive display of flattery.
Some people had not paid attention to Minghui Jewelry's autumn new product launch before, or even paid any attention to jewelry, but fell into Minghui Jewelry's trap that night.
[With that face and that voice, I'd buy it no matter what my sister says.]
[Just post the link, I'm willing to go bankrupt for it.]
[I just want to know, how much do I need to buy to marry Mr. Xu? I'm really...sigh...so envious...]
Xu Qingzhu had just finished introducing a product when she saw the comments during her break. She read them aloud in her cool voice, then frowned and replied, "You don't need to go bankrupt buying them. Jewelry is meant to make you happy. Different pieces of jewelry can evoke different moods, so there's no need to buy a lot. Just buy what you need."
"As for how much you need to buy to marry me... sorry, I can't." Xu Qingzhu picked up the next product from the staff member and glanced at Liang Shi, who was intently looking at the backend data. "I'm already married."
Liang Shi looked up when he heard this and found that Xu Qingzhu had already moved on to the next segment and started introducing the next product.
This one was designed by Zhou Yi'an.
Xu Qingzhu did not give a brief introduction just because it was designed by Zhou Yi'an. On the contrary, she introduced the product very seriously, and even brought up the title of RT's emerging designer, saying that this work was not her best design, and there were even more amazing ones to come.
This one alone is enough to amaze many people.
The bold color scheme and simple yet charming design are eye-catching.
As a result, many people went to the official website to make reservations.
In a corner unnoticed by anyone, Zhou Yi'an looked up from her phone game, glanced at her, and stared intently.
After introducing the new products launched today, Xu Qingzhu chatted with Yang Shuyan about her upcoming schedule, as a way of promoting Yang Shuyan's new drama.
Yang Shuyan's schedule is quite simple afterward. She is still in talks for a new drama, and her dramas that have already aired are all quite popular, so there's not much to promote.
Xu Qingzhu wasn't quite comfortable with the atmosphere either; she didn't know what to say to liven things up.
Pian Yang Shuyan is also a conversation killer.
The atmosphere between the two was somewhat awkward.
Someone suggested that we draw questions from the comments to answer.
So they started picking comments from fans.
The first problem that got me stuck was: Does Ms. Xu have any intention of entering the entertainment industry? She's so beautiful, it's hard not to like her.
Xu Qingzhu smiled and replied, "No, my focus is still on the company. Since I haven't studied it professionally, I won't compete with people who have formal training."
My second question is: What's Yan Jie's next project? I heard she's going to work with Zhao Ying, is that true?
When Yang Shuyan read Zhao Ying's name, her tone became slightly tender, but she quickly composed herself and replied in a cold voice, "The script is still being selected. If there is an opportunity to work with Teacher Zhao, I will certainly not refuse."
That's a pretty smooth answer that's hard to fault.
The third comment I saw was: You guys absolutely have to watch the CP (couple) edits on Pixiv, they're so good even a dog would scream!
Pixiv and CP-themed edits were unfamiliar terms to Xu Qingzhu. She frowned as she looked at the screen and asked, "What does that mean?"
Everyone in the office shook their heads: "..."
The comments section exploded with messages saying it was a video edited by an uploader featuring the two of you. Go watch it!
Surprisingly, the comments section was surprisingly harmonious, with no one criticizing it and it even turned into a scene of popular science and groundhog screams.
Seeing everyone's enthusiasm, Xu Qingzhu felt embarrassed to refuse, so she opened her phone as requested in the comments section, downloaded the app, and then searched for her and Yang Shuyan's names in the search bar.
...
#The aloof and elegant Alpha who steals someone's love, the domineering Omega who's cold and aloof on the outside but cries in bed#
#Yang Shuyan and Xu Qingzhu CP-themed montage: Crybaby AlphaX rises to the top as Omega#
#A Red Apricot Blossoms Over the Wall: A Forbidden Love#
#A love that transcends a thousand years, a search for her that would stop at nothing#
These strange titles are mixed in, but the covers all feature her and Yang Shuyan together, in such an ambiguous way that their eyes seem to be drawing silk.
Xu Qingzhu said in surprise, "I haven't even met Teacher Yang yet, how come there's a picture of us together?"
Yang Shuyan, being more worldly-wise, replied coldly, "P."
The comments section is already exploding.
[I really thought she was a domineering CEO, but why is she so adorably clueless?]
[I really want to rub all the soft, squishy parts of her body, waaaaah, I love this one so much.]
[I wish I could be that button on her shirt, haha, I'm so envious.]
[Why didn't the comment above change color? I don't understand.]
[...]
Xu Qingzhu glanced at the rapidly scrolling comments, then casually clicked on a CP-themed montage.
I deliberately chose a profound and meaningful #love that transcends a thousand years#.
The comments went even crazier.
[Oh my god, she actually ordered the best-looking one.]
[When I first watched this, I was sobbing in bed...it was so incredibly sexually charged.]
[After watching this, I even had the illusion that they were a real couple.]
[...]
Xu Qingzhu, who had never been involved in this field before, had no idea what had happened. She calmly clicked in and saw Yang Shuyan dressed in red.
It was a scene from the movie she watched that day, accompanied by a grand and inspiring background music.
Xu Qingzhu really liked Yang Shuyan's look in that movie, so she watched it with great interest.
Until she saw herself inside.
Although there are no two people in the same frame, the editing still manages to create that poignant and tender feeling.
It seems like the two were a couple who had been in love for many years, and then were forced to separate, and there was even... a sex scene.
In the video, Yang Shuyan took off her red coat, revealing her slender white shoulders and neck.
[I saw Mr. Xu swallow hard, is that true?]
[Oh ho? The most exciting part is coming.]
[This is not something a primary school student like me should watch.]
Xu Qingzhu pinched her earlobe a little embarrassedly. Just as she was about to turn it off, Sally's voice suddenly came from the office, "Leo, why are your eyes red?"
So everyone turned to look at Liang Shi.
Liang Shi rubbed his eyes, his voice cool and indifferent, "Really?"
Xu Qingzhu immediately turned off her phone and looked at Liang Shi with an unprecedentedly obedient and pitiful expression.
When Liang Shi turned his phone screen around, it was clearly the same video that Xu Qingzhu had just watched.
Xu Qingzhu: "..."
Chapter 61
The office was completely silent.
In front of everyone, Liang turned off the screen and mouthed to her, "Continue playing—"
Sally sidled up to Liang Shi with a cheeky grin and asked, "How did you feel after seeing that video?"
Liang Shi: "..."
She continued to look at the computer's backend data, thinking about how to convince everyone that she was simply tired from staring at the computer, rather than being blinded by jealousy.
“Tell me about it,” Sally nudged her shoulder.
Liang Shi remained expressionless. "It's cut very well."
—Don't cut it again next time.
Sally chuckled, "So what if you're jealous? You're married now, what's there to be afraid of?"
Liang Shi sighed and rubbed his forehead in exasperation. "It's just a CP-themed video, it's not real."
Sally stared at her, her eyes filled with disbelief.
Not long after, Sally said, "Leo, if I were you, I would definitely go up and kiss her, and give her a French kiss, to declare my ownership to everyone. You didn't see that comment, everyone is going crazy over Blanche. Declaring ownership may be childish, but it's still very necessary, especially since your wife is so beautiful and charming."
Sally's voice wasn't loud, but everyone in the office could hear it.
She was just teasing Liang Shi, and she didn't try to hide it.
