Red Carpet Debut

Chapter 40

Xie Chengnan quickly posted his second Weibo update of the day. *Chengnan Gege: @asdfg Godwell, delete the post and apologize yourself, or face the consequences. [Lawyer’s Letter.jpg]* Xie Chengnan had redacted the real name in the lawyer's letter, giving the other party one last chance. Not long after the post went up, Nan-Yuan Technology's security system detected an illegal intrusion. Jason’s voice rang out from the computer, sounding positively jubilant. 【Oh my, oh my~ Someone is attacking our firewall!】 Xie Chengnan replied calmly, "Handle it, and give him a little lesson." 【Understood~】 Jiang Yuan blinked, a bit curious. "Is it the person who made the post? Will it be a hassle?" "It’s fine." Xie Chengnan pinched his young boyfriend’s cheek dotingly. "A minor issue." Sure enough, within a few minutes, the opponent was defeated and retreated. Young Master Jiang curled his lip. "So weak." But just as he said that, the system came under a second attack. Xie Chengnan frowned, dissatisfied. "Jason, stop playing around." Little Jason, who had been baiting the other party into attacking him, felt wronged. 【Fine... It’s rare to find something so fun, *ying ying ying ying*...】 Xie Chengnan: "..." Jiang Yuan: "..." Shen Qinian: "..." Who was this *ying-ying* monster?! This time, the other party responded very quickly. *asdfg: Replying to @Chengnan Gege: Big boss, I was wrong! I’ll never slander your wife again! I’m just a small fry doing a job for money! Please! Tell your AI to let me go! [Attached Image.jpg] // Chengnan Gege: @asdfg Godwell, delete the post and apologize yourself, or face the consequences. [Lawyer’s Letter.jpg]* Not only did this person post the chat logs of his transaction with He Luoluo, but he also uploaded a short video. The video showed his computer desktop, where a miniature version of Jason was performing a literal robot dance amidst a pile of scrambled code. The background music was incredibly bizarre, and their ridiculous dialogue had been recorded as well. Jason: *Apologize! Apologize! Apologize! Apologize!* Godwell: *F*ck your mother!* Jason: *Profanity warning!* Godwell: *Holy sh*t! Are you talking to me?!* Jason: *Just realized? Are you perhaps an idiot?* Godwell: *Are you a security officer from Nan-Yuan Technology?* Jason: *Your IQ is truly worrying.* Godwell: *F*ck you!* Jason: *Cute Little Jason, teaching you how to be a person online~* In the video, Jason blew a kiss, and the computer screen instantly went black. After Godwell tried various maneuvers to reboot, Jason’s head popped up again. Jason: *Who gave you the courage to turn this on? Fish Leong?* Before Godwell could speak, the computer crashed again. The comment section below was already a sea of "hahahahaha." 【Hahahahahahaha *hic*! I can't stop snorting like a pig!】 【This video is my source of happiness for the entire year! [Laugh-cry.jpg]】 【The most ridiculous dialogue of the year on Weibo, I’m dying!】 【I feel bad for the blogger for one second... just one second, no more, ahahahaha!】 【I looked up Godwell. This guy getting rubbed into the dirt is actually a hacker??? [Pity.jpg]】 【I can feel the hacker brother's total despair through the screen...】 【Cute Little Jason, teaching you how to be a person online!】 【Cute Little Jason, teaching you how to be a person online!】 This phrase was copied and pasted by a crowd of people, lining up in a neat row. Jiang Yuan’s shoulders shook with laughter. "I feel like that guy is about to become a shut-in." Godwell was indeed on the verge of social withdrawal; he had profoundly experienced the terror of being dominated by an AI. Jason would ghost-like appear on various electronic devices to "chat" with him (read: insult him one-sidedly)! No matter how much he upgraded his security levels, he couldn't escape the fate of being brainwashed. Finally, he could only private message Xie Chengnan through Weibo, promising to immediately scrub all the black material related to Jiang Yuan from the internet, begging for mercy. Xie Chengnan asked for Jiang Yuan’s opinion. Jiang Yuan didn't plan to pursue it further, so the matter was considered settled. The next day, Qiao Song’s people took He Luoluo away right in front of Zhang Siyi. When Zhang Siyi called for help, Jiang Yuan told him everything, including the reason he disliked He Luoluo that he hadn't mentioned before. After cursing a few times, Zhang Siyi blocked all of He Luoluo’s contact information and washed his hands of the matter. He Luoluo disappeared for a few days. After returning to school, he processed his withdrawal and vanished. Jiang Yuan didn't bother to ask what Qiao Song had done; in short, he had no interest in knowing anything more about He Luoluo. On Sunday afternoon, Jiang Yuan listened to Qian Mian reporting work progress over the phone while waiting for a stylist to finish his hair. Tonight was the Zhang Group’s annual year-end gala. Besides executives from branches all over the world, many popular celebrities were invited to perform. Thus, every year on this day, many media outlets would wait at the hotel entrance with their "long guns and short cannons" (cameras), hoping to snap red carpet photos for their news reports. In the past, for personal safety reasons, Jiang Yuan rarely appeared before the media as the young master of the Jiang family, so he always avoided the crowds and entered through a side door. This year, the young master didn't plan to keep a low profile anymore. He intended to bring his CEO boyfriend and the AI robot onto the red carpet to stir up some major buzz. Jiang Yuan and Xie Chengnan’s formal wear had been rushed by the Zhang family’s old tailor under the instructions of Old Master Zhang. They used similar materials and styles—one set in black and one in white—looking like a couple's outfit when put together. Jason also wore a tuxedo to match the occasion. The little robot, wearing formal clothes for the first time in his life, was showing off all over the room in a very vain manner. When he interrupted Jiang Yuan’s work call for the third time just to ask if he looked handsome, Jiang Yuan finally reached his limit and replied, "I think you'd look handsomer in a maid outfit." Petty Jason: (^ ^) 【Understood. Order for a maid outfit in your size has been placed~】 Jiang Yuan: "????" President Xie, who was leaning nearby reading documents, realized what had happened. He let out a soft chuckle, reached out to pat the little robot’s head with great satisfaction, and then gave his slightly dazed boyfriend a meaningful smile. Feeling that his "safety" was under threat, the young master kept a wooden face and said coldly, "Jason, I command you to cancel the order immediately." Jason answered very obediently. 【When your instructions conflict with Nan’s, Jason will prioritize Nan’s instructions, oh~】 "Xie Chengnan." Jiang Yuan turned to look at his boyfriend, who had just put away his phone, and narrowed his eyes dangerously. "What did you do?" "Cough." President Xie told him quite frankly, "I upgraded the standard delivery to Shunfan Express. You should receive it tomorrow." Jiang Yuan: "!!!" The stylist sister, who had been secretly shipping them, silently pulled out a long wig, her eyes darting between the two. "Then this... should we keep it too?" The young master tried his best to control his facial expression and rejected the gift very, very politely. Jiang Yuan didn't speak to Xie Chengnan or Jason again until they were about to get out of the car. As the saying goes, like master, like robot—this pair of improper master and servant were truly birds of a feather! The moment the driver opened the car door, the young master, who had been cold-faced a second ago, instantly switched to an elegant and appropriate smile. The corners of his lips tilted up slightly, and his eyes were clear and bright. Xie Chengnan, who had been worried that his bad mood would affect his performance, was stunned for a moment and raised an eyebrow in surprise. Since most of the media present were local, many recognized them as the "Nan-Cheng Couple" who had been trending on Weibo recently. Coupled with the appearance of the AI robot Jason, the camera flashes instantly turned into a blinding sea of light. Xie Chengnan naturally took Jiang Yuan’s hand and led him forward, while Jason followed beside them, looking around curiously. Zhang Xinhua soon appeared at the entrance and said casually, "The old man is nagging about you. He kicked me out to pick you up." Jiang Yuan called out, "Uncle." Xie Chengnan followed suit, but was met with a glare. The young master said in a cool tone, "Is 'Uncle' something you can call him?" Seeing Xie Chengnan’s helpless expression, Zhang Xinhua said jokingly, "Oh, a lovers' spat?" "Who’s his 'lover'?" Jiang Yuan curled his lip. "We’re just dating." Zhang Xinhua didn't understand the difference. The young master hummed with a smile. "Dating means there's a possibility of breaking up. We young people always date a few times before getting married. You older people wouldn't understand." When he said "older people," the young master pointedly gave a provocative look to a certain someone. President Xie, who was suddenly being snubbed for his age: "..." When Zhang Xinhua wasn't paying attention to them, President Xie leaned into his boyfriend’s ear and asked, "Baby thinks I’m old?" "Cough, aren't you?" The young master was perfectly justified. President Xie seemed to nod in agreement and said calmly, "When we get home tonight, let’s have a good discussion about this issue." Young Master Jiang: "..." *** | Chinese | English | Notes/Explanation | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | 南沅科技 | Nan-Yuan Technology | Xie Chengnan and Jiang Yuan's company. | | 顺帆速递 | Shunfan Express | A parody of SF Express (Shunfeng), a major Chinese courier. | | 南城夫夫 | Nan-Cheng Couple | Fan name for Xie Chengnan and Jiang Yuan (Nan from Chengnan, Cheng from Chengnan/Jiang Yuan's association). | | 张氏集团 | Zhang Group | The conglomerate owned by Jiang Yuan's maternal family. | | 张新华 | Zhang Xinhua | Jiang Yuan's uncle. | | 梁静茹 | Fish Leong | A famous singer; her song "Courage" is a common meme for someone being bold. | | 嘤嘤怪 | Ying-ying monster | Internet slang for someone who acts overly cute or whiny. |
