94: Chapter 94 (Completed) Shocking! A top internet celebrity was attacked by tanks in the middle of the night!

Xia Ning walked forward quickly and pressed her face against the glass of the fish tank, widening her eyes to take a closer look.

She saw that there was nothing left inside but a tank of water.

A few red fish scales were scattered at the bottom of the tank.

Xia Ning suddenly turned her head and looked at the bowl of Boiled Fish with Sichuan Pickles on the dining table, her mouth agape.

She walked over slowly, pointed the camera at the soup bowl, and spoke in a calm voice.

"Dad, the fish isn't lost. It's right here!"

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while before a bitter laugh rang out.

"Ningning, didn't you say you liked this fish very much?"

"Why did you eat it?"

Xia Ning took a deep breath helplessly and squeezed out a smile.

"Yeah, I like it."

"It's delicious."

Xia Shujie's laughter rang out from the phone.

"A 200,000-yuan fish, and you just ate it like that. You spendthrift girl, I really don't know what to do with you!"

As he laughed, he suddenly felt something was off and became a bit wary.

"Who cooked this fish?"

Xia Ning: "..."

"I ordered takeout and called for a chef."

Her expression remained unchanged.

"The cooking is quite good."

...

The night grew deeper.

Xia Ning lay on the bed staring at the ceiling for a while, then snapped out of it and picked up her phone to scroll through Douyin.

She noticed that many bloggers had already reposted the company's promotional video, "I Speak for Myself," and various major influencers were providing professional analysis and reviews.

She couldn't help but smile.

After scrolling through the comments for a while.

Xia Ning swiped to the next one, which happened to be a local video that had just been posted.

The title was:

[Internet Celebrity Qin Xun Frantically Attacked by a Heavy Tank!]

She was stunned.

A tank?

What tank?

What kind of trouble has Qin Xun gotten himself into?

She widened her eyes and watched the video.

She saw...

Under the cover of night, at the entrance of a hotel, a shirtless man carrying a bag rushed out, looking back every few steps in a state of panic.

Immediately after, a chubby woman chased after him like a rolling ball, screaming at the top of her lungs.

"Don't run!"

"I really just want to be friends with you!"

Seeing this, Xia Ning understood what "tank" meant. She thought it was quite boring and shook her head.

"Really..."

Xia Ning clicked on the comments and found that the video creator had explained the whole story in the comment section.

[Good grief!

I was having beer at a barbecue stall! Then I heard someone shouting from the second floor of the small hotel across the street, "What are you doing? I'm showering!" "Get out!" "Holy crap!"

Immediately after, a woman's deep, booming laughter rang out.

"I've finally found you!"

To my surprise, it was actually the big influencer Qin Xun!

He was chased down the street by a "tank," and he almost lost his electric scooter!]

Below, netizens were leaving comments.

[No way? Qin Xun is quite handsome, why does he have such heavy tastes?]

[Was he catfished while trying to hook up?]

[I don't think that's Qin Xun. He's so famous now, would he stay in such a small hotel? Is he really that poor?]

[Oh my god! He's streaking!]

...

As Xia Ning scrolled through the comments, a smile actually appeared on her lips.

"Serves him right!"

Suddenly!

Xia Ning's phone rang; it was a call from Qin Xun.

She tucked away her smile, answered the phone, and said coldly.

"Hello, what is it?"

On the other end of the phone, she could hear Qin Xun panting.

"Little Xia, emergency! S.O.S.!"

"Just now while I was showering, a dinosaur broke in! I was so scared I didn't even dry off before putting on clothes and running for my life!"

Xia Ning gave a silent laugh and said in a serious tone.

"A dinosaur?"

"Then you should go find a scientist."

Qin Xun was stunned for a moment on the other end, sounding somewhat exasperated.

"Little Xia, when your leader is talking to you, be serious and don't be so flippant."

Xia Ning smiled and let out a soft snort.

"Mm-hmm!"

Qin Xun continued.

"2,000 yuan it is. Just arrange any room in your house for me, I'm not picky. Just let me in already!"

"The nights in Haicheng are truly terrifying!"

Xia Ning was taken aback.

She had previously thought about tricking Qin Xun into moving in so she could keep an eye on him and prevent him from being poached.

Now that he was offering to move in of his own accord, she felt a bit worried.

She reached out, pulled the quilt up to cover her shoulders, and asked flatly.

"Where are you now?"

Qin Xun clearly breathed a sigh of relief on the other end and said urgently.

"At the entrance of your residential complex. This damn security guard won't let me in."

Xia Ning nodded.

This complex usually used facial recognition for entry. For those without identification, they needed to register and could only be released after confirmation with the homeowner.

She said softly.

"Register first. Once that's done and they confirm with me, they'll let you in."

Qin Xun's voice sounded a bit angry.

"This damn security guard saw me wearing only a pair of underwear, and since I'm so handsome, he thinks I'm a gigolo and won't let me register."

Immediately after, a middle-aged man's voice was heard.

"Sir, please maintain your manners and refrain from using foul language."

Xia Ning covered her mouth and laughed.

"Wait a moment."

After saying that, she hung up and called the property management, telling them to let in a half-naked man named Qin Xun at the gate.

She put down her phone.

Xia Ning was a bit nervous. She threw off the quilt and hurried to change into a more conservative set of pajamas.

She went downstairs and sat in the living room, feeling somewhat apprehensive.

Time passed second by second.

Five minutes later.

She touched her forehead and found a thin layer of sweat.

Suddenly!

Her phone chimed with a message notification.

Xia Ning's heart skipped a beat. She quickly picked up her phone and opened it, but was a bit disappointed to see a message from Cheng Wan.

[President Xia, there's something I've been thinking about for a long time, so much so that I can't sleep. I've decided to report it to you.]

She found it a bit strange.

Cheng Wan often reported small things to her and was always very eager. Why did it seem like she had been struggling with this for a long time based on this one sentence?

Xia Ning had an ominous premonition and typed a reply.

[Go ahead.]

Quickly.

Cheng Wan replied.

[President Qin... wants to hire another junior assistant.]

Xia Ning smiled and breathed a sigh of relief.

[I know.]

She sent it and then added another sentence.

[Give him your full cooperation!]

After a few dozen seconds, Cheng Wan replied.

[Received, President Xia!]

Xia Ning gave a light chuckle, thinking that Cheng Wan might be overthinking things, perhaps believing that she had become addicted to being a junior assistant and was afraid of someone else stealing her job.

Suddenly.

She remembered that during dinner, after she had sent her edited recruitment requirements to Qin Xun, he had simply put away his phone without sending them to Cheng Wan.

Xia Ning looked at the night sky outside the window and frowned slightly.

"Could it be..."

She quickly sent a message to Cheng Wan.

[Cheng Wan, copy the recruitment requirements Qin Xun sent you and send them to me!]

Quickly.

Cheng Wan replied.

[01. Good image, great temperament, excellent physique.]

[02. Lively personality, able to sing and dance, pole dancing preferred.]

[03. Thick-skinned, preferably shameless.]

[04. Obedient, the kind that offers absolute submission.]

[Sister Wan, these are the requirements for the junior assistant I want to hire. Please help polish them with professional terminology and post them on the recruitment sites. Thanks!]

After reading it.

Xia Ning's face turned cold.

"Are you hiring a junior assistant or a KTV hostess?"

Just then, she heard the doorbell ring.

She walked to the living room door and looked at the monitor.

She saw Qin Xun shirtless, one hand on the iron courtyard gate and the other on his waist, bowing his head and panting heavily.

Xia Ning turned to look at the fish tank, which now held only water, and her eyes grew cold.

"Xiao Hong, I won't let you die in vain."

Opening the door.

She walked silently toward Qin Xun.
