A Low Rank Female Goes Viral Across the Galaxy-Chapter 142: Blind Date

Jiang Qin returned to the stage.

She was still in the same outfit.

First, she apologized to everyone. After all, they had been given quite a scare.

Especially the females. They themselves might not have been afraid, but their males were probably terrified.

So, the bar would be refunding today’s entry fees.

Furthermore, every guest would be given a complimentary glass of Inhibitor.

Jiang Qin suddenly felt very poor.

Technically, refunding the entry fees wasn’t an actual loss; at worst, it was just one less day of business.

But it was still a huge sum of money.

And with a glass of Inhibitor for each person, that would cost tens of millions of Star Coins.

Thankfully, she wasn’t the one paying for it. If she were, wouldn’t she be back to square one overnight?

Just a moment ago, she’d been feeling a pang of conscience, but now she was actually starting to covet that inheritance worth tens of billions.

The problem was... if someone else claimed it, it might actually be an inheritance. But if she claimed it, it would probably be considered a male’s dowry.

After all, it was just an SS-level spiritual power rampage, and she just so happened to be able to purify it...

’Maybe I can earn those tens of billions legitimately?’

But she didn’t want to expose her own Level, and she certainly didn’t want to gamble on whether others would keep her secret.

If she was exposed, the Federation probably wouldn’t do anything to her, but they would definitely try to saddle her with a husband.

The powerful, influential, and possibly older kind. At that thought, she quickly looked over at Shi Lichuan, who was puffed up like an angry pufferfish beside her.

’Yes, a sight for sore eyes.’

Noticing her gaze, Shi Lichuan quickly broke into a smile and asked, "What’s wrong? Are you tired? If you are, we can take our leave and go home."

Jiang Qin shook her head. "No, I just wanted to look at you."

Her directness made Shi Lichuan’s face burn.

He pressed his lips together, grinning foolishly, looking a little flustered and unsure of what to do with his hands.

Jiang Qin was amused. Though she had no experience with romance either, compared to Shi Lichuan, she felt like a seasoned veteran.

The pink, romantic bubble around the two of them caused the eyes of Yun Xie, who was watching from the shadows, to darken.

And then there was Cang Hong, who was watching the livestream...

’He knew it! Miss Jiang is really in a relationship!!’

WOOOO! AWOOOO!!

Crouching in a bathroom stall to secretly watch the livestream, he instantly started wailing like an idiot.

His manager, who had come looking for him, was speechless. "..."

Good thing there weren’t any paparazzi around, or Cang Hong’s public persona would shatter a thousand times a day.

’He knew it... there was something fishy about this kid running to the bathroom every few minutes. He was secretly playing on his Light Computer.’

Thinking of this, he immediately pounded on the stall door.

"Get out here right now, or I’m sending a recording of you howling like a wolf to Miss Jiang Qin."

The howling stopped instantly.

With red-rimmed eyes, Cang Hong walked out, head bowed and looking gloomy.

He protested, "Miss Jiang is in a relationship with another male, and you won’t even let me cry."

"So what?" the manager said, rolling his eyes.

"Your lips are sealed tighter than a Mecha cockpit hatch. It’s perfectly normal for people to date."

Cang Hong, who sent punctual greeting messages every day but was too shy to bother Jiang Qin any more than that...

It wasn’t that his lips were sealed; he was just afraid of being disliked.

But his manager didn’t know he was so devoted as to send daily messages. All he knew was that since returning from the Empire, Cang Hong hadn’t left the house.

He’d only gone out once, to the bar last night.

He went again today but couldn’t get in line, so he had to obediently come out to work with his manager.

"Stop your whining. Hurry up and finish your work so you can go pursue the female. Otherwise, you won’t even be in the running for her tenth relationship."

Cang Hong: "..."

’What a terrifying thought.’

"Right! I need to work hard and save up a dowry!"

...

Like Cang Hong, Lan Yuyan hadn’t been able to go to the bar today. Stepping out into a hallway to catch his breath, he only glanced at his Light Computer for a moment before turning it off.

After taking a moment to compose himself, he pushed aside his frustrations and went back inside the room.

His mother was chatting happily with a gray-haired female.

Meanwhile, his father was entertaining that female’s partners.

"Yuyan, come sit. Being so shy isn’t going to win you a female master’s favor. You can’t be like this after you marry into Qingqing’s family."

The gray-haired female chuckled. "It’s alright, Aunt Lan. I already have plenty of clingy partners. I haven’t had a cold one like Yuyan before."

"As long as you like him. If he does anything wrong, you just come to the Lan Family and tell me, and I’ll teach him a lesson for you."

"Deal."

Lan Yuyan maintained a polite expression, but inside, his heart ached with growing pain.

After the meal, the others all found excuses to leave. Soon, only he and Bai Qingqing were left in the living room.

She stood up and sat down on the sofa right next to him. As a conditioned reflex, Lan Yuyan scooted further away.

Bai Qingqing asked, displeased, "What is the meaning of this? Do you find me disgusting?

Don’t you know what today’s meeting was for?"

"I’m sorry." Lan Yuyan bowed his head and apologized, forcing down his revulsion.

Seeing him adopt a subservient posture, Bai Qingqing snorted coldly, deciding not to press the issue. "Come here and serve me."

"When Miss Bai says ’serve’... what does that entail?"

"Pleasing me, of course. Haven’t you ever taken a male courtship class?

This must be your first time, right? If you’re shy, we can go to your room."

Lan Yuyan had, of course, taken such classes.

But he was unwilling, from the bottom of his heart.

Before, it might not have mattered, but now, in this moment, he truly understood just how much he resisted it.

’If I take this step, will it be impossible for me to ever get close to *her* in this lifetime?’

But when he thought of everything his mother and father had done for him, he couldn’t bring himself to completely disregard them and the Lan Family.

Seeing him remain motionless, Bai Qingqing grew genuinely annoyed. "What are you standing there in a daze for? Lead the way."

Lan Yuyan snapped back to reality and said in a gentle tone, "Miss Bai, isn’t this a little too fast?"

"Not at all. If you don’t serve me, how am I supposed to know if I even like you? I have no use for a male who’s all looks and no substance."

Bai Qingqing disliked such dallying males, and her expression grew more impatient.

"If you’re not willing, then get lost. I’m not short on S-level males. Don’t stand there acting all prim and proper.

So, are you going to do it or not? Give me a straight answer."

"I..." Lan Yuyan wanted to say yes, but he couldn’t force the word out.

A sudden, dull ache in his heart made it almost impossible to breathe.

Bai Qingqing sneered, "Heh. Lan Yuyan, you don’t actually think I need a male like you, do you?

I was only willing to give you a partner slot because our families are on good terms.

Since you don’t appreciate the gesture, this matter is canceled.

Within three days, I expect your Lan Family to give me a satisfactory explanation.

After all, I, Bai Qingqing, am not some female you can summon and dismiss at will."

With that, Bai Qingqing left. Her partners were waiting for her in the garden outside.

Seeing her emerge so quickly, they didn’t say anything, simply surrounding her as she departed from the Lan Family estate.

Lan Yuyan’s mother and father had no idea what had happened between the two. They could only suppress their confusion, politely see their guests out, and then return to the living room, preparing to ask about their progress.
