GHML – Chapter 33.2: Phone From Three Years Ago (2)
Maintaining his manners, Shang Jing replied, “I’m sorry, I’m not interested in becoming a caged sparrow.”
Wang Sheng: “How is that considered a caged sparrow? If you’re willing to go on live recordings to earn a living, I can provide you with a channel to groom you into an internet sensation. In today’s market, an internet sensation earns more than some small celebrities. With He Jiang, you will never be able to obtain a legitimate position. With me, everytime you come here, as long as I’m still the person-in-charge here, you will be the lady boss.”
Shang Jing frowned. Why does the words ‘lady boss’ sound so disgusting coming out of Wang Sheng’s mouth?
Seeing the lack of interest in Shang Jing, Wang Sheng took out a name card from his pocket and said, “You’ll take up my offer eventually. You just can’t bear to separate from He Jiang now. For the time being, you can also try dating me. With me, you can exchange your beauty and virtues for cash through a live recording contract.”
The last statement was blatantly hinting at him of the unspoken rules in the entertainment scene, ruffling Shang Jing’s feathers.
Is there something wrong with him? Even if we overlook the fact that I am already married to He Jiang. Before the divorce, I will never have any ties with anyone else. This is just some basic respect one must have towards the marriage, and also to ensure I won’t be put in a disadvantaged position during the divorce assets allocation.
And why is this man speaking to himself? Doesn’t he understand human language?
Shang Jing: “I’m sorry, I’m particular about looks. Let’s talk again after you have gone through a few rounds of plastic surgery to look like He Jiang.”
“You don’t know what’s good for you.” Wang Sheng’s expression fell. He had thought he was teasing some coy wife. Who would have thought the words coming out of his mouth were that unpleasant to the ears.
With a glint in his eye, he phoned the backend staff. “Remove the process of reviewing comments before posting them. Why did we spend so much money to hire someone to make our lives difficult? If there’s no explosive news arising from the interview, how would we justify the 2 million yuan paycheck?”
At 7.30PM, the recording started as scheduled.
Ning Ning: “Netizens have been very curious about He Jiang’s boyfriend who suddenly appeared from nowhere. In today’s broadcast, we are honored to be able to invite the boyfriend in question, Shang Jing! Welcome!”
Shang Jing greeted the viewers in the broadcast room, “Good evening everyone, I am Shang Jing.”
They started off with some common questions like what he liked to eat, what games he played and slowly moved towards questions involving He Jiang.
Ning Ning: “On the day your relationship was revealed, you had called Yang Yue using He Jiang’s phone when Yang Yue was on a live broadcast. Do both of you share your handphones?”
Shang Jing: “He doesn’t stop me from using his phone.”
Ning Ning: “Seems like you have a strong relationship filled with trust! Our fans are all jealous of you! In that case, both of you must know what name you are saved under in each other’s phone. Can you share that with us?”
Shang Jing felt like an A-star student who was suddenly picked by the teacher to answer a question. He did not know how to avoid the question nor lie. Instead, he scratched his palm and could not help the look of panic on his face.
It was true he had gone through He Jiang’s handphone before but He Jiang had never seen his.
Seeing his discomfort, Ning Ning pressed on, “Is that something you can’t reveal?”
Shang Jing: “C-Can.”

Ning Ning’s eyes brightened up. Judging from how much Shang Jing was stammering, the answer must be something worthy of being a hot topic. “What name did you save He Jiang under?”
Shang Jing muttered under his breath, “Douchebag.”
In the broadcast room.
“HAHAHAHAHA, Douchebag He, you deserve it!”
“He Jiang, your wife is bad mouthing you in a live recording.”
“I’m willing to bet He Jiang must have angered his wife recently! Our Shang Jing is a good child, he’s definitely the type of coy wife who would give his husband an endearing and sweet nickname!”
“Old dog He, hurry and seek forgiveness from your wife!”
“Those riding on Shang Jing’s words, control yourself. How is He Jiang a douchebag? Haven’t you seen what a great man he is?”
“I’ve never seen someone call his boyfriend a douchebag.”
At the same time, He Jiang, who was watching the broadcast in his free time: “…”
Douchebag?
Seeing the response, the host took the opportunity to dig deeper. “Why did you name hima s such? How is He Jiang and a douchebag similar?”
Shang Jing obviously could not tell the truth and randomly picked an excuse. “Oh, it’s because he stays out from time to time.”
Ning Ning: “Yesterday was He Jiang’s birthday!”
Lin Lin eyes hardened. Judging from the direction of the conversation, Ning Ning was about to ask whether He Jiang stayed out last night and immediately signaled a cross from her position to prevent her from asking about He Jiang’s private life.
Ning Ning quickly changed the direction of the conversation and asked, “Will you consider changing the nickname to make He Jiang happy on his birthday?”
Shang Jing: “I’ll consider that.”

All of a sudden, he has become a douchebag in Shang Jing’s eyes?

Seeing the rising headcount in the broadcast room, Ning Ning raised her eyebrows and continued firing questions at Shang Jing, “What about He Jiang’s nickname for you?”
Shang Jing blushed. Shyly, he lowered his head and said, “Puppy Shang.”
