"It looks like you're doing well now."
Because of her work, Xu Qian had more than a hundred lipsticks. Other than that, she also had a variety of skincare products, clothes, handbags, and shoes. Although Zhang Heng did not recognize most of the brands, he could easily find out the approximate price of these things by searching the Internet. There was no doubt that these were all luxury goods.
Even a small lipstick was worth a month's living expenses for the people on the first level.
It seemed that no matter which timeline she was in, women had no resistance to these things.
"Since we're talking about friends, can you briefly introduce your other interpersonal relationships? Your parents, relatives, spouse, competitors at work, and so on. "Zhang Heng continued to ask.
"Uh-huh," Xu Qian nodded, "As you know, New Shanghai 0297 was built less than thirty years ago. This is an extremely young city. Compared to the increasingly crowded Earth, this place is full of opportunities. So, like other young people who came here to make a fortune, I saved enough money for the ticket and came here with my sister."
"You have a sister here?"
"Yes, a distant cousin. We studied in the same school when we were young, and we had a good relationship. However, since I was signed by the company and became more and more famous, we almost stopped contacting each other after I moved out of the first level."
"Is it because the difference between the two of you makes her feel inferior?"
"Well … personally, I think it's more about jealousy." Xu Qian shrugged, "At that time, the talent scout not only took a fancy to me but also some other girls, including my distant cousin. However, there was only one signing spot. I think you can imagine what happened next. I defeated the other competitors and got the spot, completing the leap. However, the others were not as lucky as me. Including my cousin, they could only stay on the first level."
Xu Qian took off her contact lenses and fake eyelashes as she spoke. Her hair gradually returned to its original black color. "… the problem is that the two of us may have some differences in opinion on this matter.
"… The problem is that the two of us may have different opinions on this matter. In my opinion, opportunities don't come to you on their own most of the time. They always come with competition, and you need to work hard to fight for them. The position I am in today is the result of my hard work. I give, and then I get rewarded. This is how society works. But my cousin obviously doesn't think so. She thinks that if it wasn't for me, she would be the final winner.
"Everything I own today, my clothes, my apartment, my lipstick and perfume, they all belong to her. She feels like I'm a thief who stole her life from her hands. So, the night before I moved out of the first floor, we had a big fight and decided that we would never see each other again. "
"Do you think she might be the one stalking you?" Zhang Heng asked.
"Her? Impossible, "Xu Qian shook her head." She doesn't know where I live, and even if she knew, she wouldn't have the guts to do so. She's just a poor woman who feels sorry for herself. When we worked together as a greeter in a small restaurant, she didn't dare to say anything even though the boss took advantage of her. "
"I understand."
"As for the spouse, in our industry, getting married basically means retirement. As long as the news gets out, you will lose a lot of fans, especially those streamers with pure personalities. Basically, their popularity will plummet like a cliff." Xu Qian hesitated at this point, and finally said, "But I am indeed dating someone. Please keep this a secret."
"Huh?"
"He has a small factory that mainly researches sensors and something else … Ah, I'm not familiar with these things. Anyway, those high-tech gadgets look the same to me before they leave the factory," Xu Qian said. "The important thing is that he lives on the fourth level. We met through a live broadcast, and he tipped me a lot of money at that time. Although I'm a little famous in this industry, no one has tipped me so much money before him. After that, he even bought a one-on-one chat service with me. We chatted for about the whole night, and we said a lot of stupid things. But unlike before, I didn't feel too tired during the process. That's how we got to know each other.
That's how we got to know each other. "After that, he bought a chat service a few more times. The more we chatted, the more familiar we became. One day, he asked to meet me, and I agreed. He drove to pick me up, and we had French food in an expensive restaurant on the fourth floor. After that, we went to watch a symphony performance. Although I had no idea what the guys on the stage were doing, and no one was singing, it was a good date. I guess this is probably the kind of date that all girls dream of."
Xu Qian picked up the newly added teapot and poured some water into her cup. She then continued, "He's not bad. Although he's ten years older than me, his figure is a little out of shape, and he likes to brag, he has a good temper, and he's humorous. He lives on the fourth floor. Heh, I know what you're thinking. This woman must be after his money."
"I never judge other people's life choices," Zhang Heng said calmly.
"It doesn't matter." Xu Qian took a sip of tea. "I'm just going for the money. Or rather, most of the reason I'm dating him is because of money. Although I can make money quickly in this line of work, I'm still young. I have to think about my future life, especially now that the number of viewers in my livestream has been declining. I don't want to go back to the small restaurant on the first floor anymore. Although I can no longer make money through livestreaming, I can move directly to the fourth floor and become a rich, full-time wife. I've been to his residence. He has a small, independent villa by the lake. The scenery is great, and unlike the first to third floors, the fourth floor has four seasons."
Xu Qian closed her eyes. "Now, imagine that in the summer, we can get a boat and row on the lake. When we're tired, we can stop in the middle of the lake, and I can sleep on his lap. At night, we can even barbecue by the lake …"
"Sounds good."
"That's right, this is the life I want." Xu Qian opened her eyes, and her face was filled with a happy smile. "Let me tell you another secret. In fact, he has proposed to me, but I didn't agree to him for the time being. Men are like this. They don't know how to cherish what they get too easily. I said I would consider it for a while. Coincidentally, he also has a big business deal to discuss, and he is on a business trip to Earth. Otherwise, I can just move in with him.
