Volume 1_Chapter 246 Stupid Beauty x Sports School Male God (8)
【Because the Host's persona collapsed in front of the villain, the punishment starts after thirty seconds; as long as they stay ten meters away from the villain, they will receive an electric shock, lasting five hours.】
Jiang Zhi, still retrieving her bag from the robber's arms, heard these words; she abruptly lifted her head, her gaze sweeping over the crowd, and when she caught a glimpse of a familiar figure, her eyes widened.
【11.】
【10.】
The countdown continued; she had no time for anything else and hurried after him.
"He… He Yin." she called out from behind.
He Yin stopped his steps and turned to look at her.
Jiang Zhi walked up to him, panting; she had run too long and her body could barely take it, she braced her waist to ease her breathing.
After a moment, she spoke: "Why are you here?"
He Yin spoke concisely: "Work."
Jiang Zhi chuckled: "Work, huh? You're out working on a Saturday—you're really diligent."
He Yin obviously had no time to chat; he asked: "Anything up?"
Jiang Zhi dared not stray ten meters from him; the punishment had already begun, she couldn't leave for five hours—this penalty is absolutely insane.
She hurriedly said: "I have something!"
He Yin: "What is it?"
Jiang Zhi snatched the half-stack of flyers from his arms and said earnestly: "Seeing how hard you work, I thought I shouldn't waste my time either, so today I'll join you in handing out flyers."
He Yin didn't understand what she meant, frowned, and said: "No need."
Jiang Zhi shook her head: "You do need it."
He Yin pondered, guessed a possibility: "What just happened, I won't tell anyone."
Having said that, he reached to take back his flyers: "So you don't need to curry favor with me."
Jiang Zhi dodged his outstretched hand, huffing: "I just want to experience the fun of work; won't you indulge me? He Yin, do you dislike me that much?"
He Yin had never seen her angry; meeting her reddened gaze, his motion froze, then after a few seconds he relented: "Okay, go ahead and hand them out."
He waited for her to feel tired and give up.
Who would have thought that after she started, she handed out flyers for half an hour; the girl showed no trace of fatigue or reluctance, handing them out one by one to passersby, and even when rejected she didn't feel discouraged, continuing to the next person.
Fine beads of sweat dotted her forehead, her cheeks flushed red, her legs ached from standing long, her expression unchanged, she happily kept handing out flyers.
At a glance the girl looked like someone who had never known hardship; her exposed snow-white skin was reddened by the sun, and her slender white fingers were stained with discoloration from the flyers' edges.
"Jiang Zhi." he suddenly called out to her silhouette.
Jiang Zhi's head felt dazed from the sun; hearing the voice she didn't react immediately, she stood still, then after a moment turned her head blankly toward him, raising a hand to block the glaring sunlight before her eyes.
"What's wrong?" she said, thirsty, her voice slightly hoarse.
He Yin walked up to her and asked: "Do you still want to hand out flyers?"
Jiang Zhi nodded: "Yes."
Compared to leaving him and suffering the God Pillar System's electric shock punishment, she preferred to stay here and hand out flyers.
It's just basking in the sun; she can still endure it.
He Yin said: "Go hand them out over there."
He pointed to beside the newsstand; there happened to be a shaded spot at the mall entrance.
The girl was adamant; she wouldn't stop until she finished handing them out, and no matter how he persuaded her, it was useless—so he could only let her stand in the cool shade.
Jiang Zhi was a bit bewildered: "Aren't you coming over?"
He Yin replied: "I'm handing them out here."
Jiang Zhi unwillingly shook her head: "No, I want to stand with you to hand them out."
He Yin, hearing her, felt his ears warm a little, his brows and eyes sinking: "Are you really a girl?"
She knew what she was saying? She didn't feel embarrassed either; he had already begun doubting whether she was actually a girl.
Jiang Zhi walked up to him, tiptoed to let him see her clearly, and said: "If you want to know, you can kiss me, and I'll secretly tell you."
He Yin's entire ear turned bright red, he stepped back several paces, his chest feeling hot and trembling.
He no longer glanced at her, walking toward the newsstand.
Jiang Zhi followed behind him to the shade; without the scorching sun, her body heat eased a little.
He Yin stood in the shade opposite her, continuing to hand flyers to passersby.
Jiang Zhi also refused to be outdone, pushing hard to promote.
Over there, Wang Qian, who had been searching for her for a while, spotted her handing out flyers by the roadside.
Wang Qian ran over and exclaimed in disbelief: "Jiang Jiang, why are you handing out flyers here?"
After Jiang Zhi finished handing out one flyer, she had a moment to explain to her: "I'm helping He Yin hand them out."
Only then did Wang Qian notice the buzz-cut youth opposite also handing out flyers; she flared up: "He made you do this? How can he be like this? No way! Jiang Jiang, no matter how much you like him, you can't let him enslave you."
Having said that, she was about to go scold He Yin.
Jiang Zhi quickly grabbed her wrist, speaking earnestly: "It's me who wants to hand them out, Qian Qian; I just wanted to experience work—my grandma never lets me take a part‑time job, I can't help at home either, so seeing him handing out flyers I came over to help him."
Wang Qian listened to her sincere tone, unsure what to say.
After a few seconds of thought, she said: "Then I'll help you; we'll finish them off together in no time."
Jiang Zhi shook her head: "You told me when you left that your dad wanted you home early this afternoon to visit your grandma—don't help me, just go back."
Seeing she still hadn't moved, Jiang Zhi added: "Look, I'm almost done handing them out; I promise I'll go home after I finish—okay?"
Wang Qian could only agree, uneasy: "After you finish, be sure to go home; I'll wait for your news when I get back."
Jiang Zhi nodded, watching the girl leave before she finally relaxed.
Time passed quickly.
He Yin over there had already finished handing out the flyers, walked over and said, "Give them all to me."
Jiang Zhi still had about ten left, didn't argue with him, and gave them all to him.
Soon after, He Yin finished handing out all the flyers.
He said, "I'll send you home."
Jiang Zhi took out a tissue from her bag, wiped the sweat on her forehead, glanced at him and asked, "I helped you hand out the flyers; you promised me a request, alright?"
He Yin fell silent for a moment, then asked, "What request?"
Jiang Zhi smiled and said, "Accompany me for three hours."
The flyers had been handed out for two hours; the remaining three hours, she needed to think carefully about how to spend them.
He Yin glanced at the time and said, "I still have a part-time job tonight."
It's already 6:30.
Jiang Zhi's eyes lit up: "Then I'll accompany you."
He Yin thought of that place being a mixed crowd, immediately refused: "No need."
Jiang Zhi let out a dejected oh.
Seeing this, He Yin pressed his thin lips tightly.
Forget it.
He slowly said, "Where do you want to go?"
Jiang Zhi blinked: "You're not going to your part-time job?"
He Yin raised his fingers and pinched his sore brows.
He got up at 5:30 in the morning, had done several part-time jobs; skipping that evening shift wouldn't matter.
Not going.
Jiang Zhi said guiltily: "You actually don't need to accommodate me; I'm very obedient, staying aside won't disturb you."
