Chapter Twenty: The Tycoon Has Arrived!

Page 1/3

Startled by the knock, Xu Xu took a sharp breath and nervously opened the door—sure enough, it was Huo Hanshen. He stood tall in the doorway, wearing only a white shirt. Perhaps due to the warmth inside, he had undone two buttons, revealing striking contours beneath the fabric. Even through the shirt, the sculpted muscles beneath radiated an undeniable allure.

Facing Huo Hanshen so directly, especially after the topics Xu Xu had just been discussing in her live stream, her face flushed uncontrollably.

Oh my god! He must have heard everything just now, right?

No, he definitely did!

“I... um...” Xu Xu stammered, cheeks burning as she looked at Huo Hanshen, unsure how to explain that she had only been joking moments before.

Fortunately, Huo Hanshen didn’t press her for explanations. Instead, he cast a meaningful glance toward the computer in the study, then lowered his voice, his tone magnetic as he said softly, “Go to bed early; don’t stay up too late.”

After speaking gently, he handed her a cup of warm milk.

Only then did Xu Xu realize he had come to bring her the milk.

“Ah... thank you,” she murmured, still dizzy as she accepted the drink.

Huo Hanshen smiled faintly at her, then turned and left.

Watching his retreating figure, Xu Xu couldn’t help but indulge in a romantic daydream—

Heavenly! Such a gentle, considerate man—he’s actually her husband!

She must have saved the galaxy in a past life.

After a moment of foolish grinning, Xu Xu suddenly remembered she was still live streaming and hurried back to her computer.

Then... she noticed the chat room had exploded with excitement!

“Woooah! There’s a man!”

“Is that your husband? His voice is amazing!”

“Is he a voice actor too?”

“Definitely! Such a beautiful voice!”

“Oh my god! That voice fits perfectly with the male lead in ‘Treasure Fate’!”

“Ahhh! If you and your husband could voice act this book together, I’d be the happiest little girl ever!”

At the mention of that book, the chat flooded with agreement.

Xu Xu’s face reddened even more. After all, the book they were talking about, ‘Treasure Fate,’ was quite the steamy novel! The content was explicit, and the chemistry between the protagonists was intense.

Why did Xu Xu know this? Because... she had read it herself!

Inevitably, Xu Xu found herself imagining scenes of her and Huo Hanshen voicing lines from the story...

“Why do you dare not look at me, sir? Don’t you wish to taste the rouge upon my lips?”

Within the crimson canopy bed, a woman in a red sheer gown crawled toward the man dressed in white, extending her pale hand to lightly tease his chin with her finger.

The man grabbed her wrist and pulled sharply, causing her to fall fully upon him.

“The taste of mere rouge is not enough—I long to taste you...”

What followed was too indecent to consider, and Xu Xu quickly shook her head to dispel the thought!

Pah! What am I thinking!

“Everyone, stop spamming! My husband isn’t a voice actor—he’s just an ordinary office worker,” Xu Xu quickly explained. “He can’t do dubbing with me.”

“Ah... what a pity!”

“Such a lovely voice, and he’s not a voice actor?”

“I really think your husband should try becoming one~”

“Really can’t?”

“Why are you here in my live stream if not to hear me? Why do you all want to hear my husband’s voice instead?” Xu Xu teased with a hint of mock grievance. “If you keep this up, I’ll get jealous!”

Her playful remark made the fans laugh, and they began asking whether she was jealous of them or of her husband.

“A little of both,” Xu Xu chuckled before steering the conversation back. “Alright, alright, what would you like me to voice? Just type it in the chat, and I’ll randomly pick a clip to perform.”

With the topic shifted to voice acting once more, the fans refrained from pressing about her husband and instead flooded the chat with requests.

Xu Xu picked several clips, found the corresponding videos, and began to voice them.

The atmosphere in the stream became harmonious, filled only with her voice and the fans’ constant praise.

Just as Xu Xu finished a segment and was about to select another, the screen suddenly erupted in dazzling effects!

The entire screen was covered with carnival-themed animations!

And not just one—these effects kept appearing continuously!

Xu Xu was stunned.

Her fans were stunned.

“Where did this big spender come from?!”

The endless carnival effects left everyone speechless, and the chat exploded!

“Whoa! Worship the big spender!”

“Who on earth is this HLX?”

“Guys, I counted—they sent 50 carnival gifts! Oh my god!”

Fifty carnival gifts—worth hundreds of thousands!

The fans were utterly shocked. Who was this user “HLX”?

“Holy cow, this guy doesn’t even have a fan light! A random passerby?”

“Huh?”

“Huh??”

“I just checked the number one donor’s account—no info at all! A newly registered account?”

“Maybe some kid made a mistake? Didn’t know what the carnival gift was and just clicked because it looked cool?”

“Highly possible!”

Not only did the fans think so, but Xu Xu did too.

She quickly clicked on the user’s avatar and sent a private message.

“Xu Xu”: Hello! Hey little one, it seems you accidentally sent gifts that cost money. You can apply for a refund as a minor, and I’ll return the money to you.

At the same time, Huo Hanshen, who had just sent the gifts, was video chatting with Lin Feng, asking how to use this short video app.

He had never used such apps before and only downloaded it to support Xu Xu.

Before Lin Feng could respond, Huo Hanshen noticed Xu Xu had messaged him, so he gestured for Lin Feng to be quiet.

Lin Feng: “...”

Huo Hanshen smiled as he read Xu Xu’s message.

His wife was truly adorable.

“HLX”: Hello, I’m not a minor. I sent you gifts because your voice is beautiful and reminds me of my wife’s. Please don’t feel uncomfortable.

Huo Hanshen typed back to Xu Xu.

Worried she might still refuse, he added:

“HLX”: I have a good job and a decent income; this money means nothing to me.

Xu Xu frowned slightly at the reply.

He sent gifts because her voice resembled his wife’s? That was a little strange!

“Xu Xu”: I’m sorry, sir, but I cannot accept your gifts. Everyone works hard for their money; it’s not right to spend it like this.

“Xu Xu”: And you have a wife—spending money on another woman isn’t appropriate.

That was classic scumbag behavior!

She hated scumbags the most!
