Recently, Xiao Yuyu had clearly been spending less time playing the Game, but strangely, her time chatting with Su Li had increased instead.
Sometimes, she wouldn’t even log into the Game at all—just talking with Su Li.
She constantly nagged her about the baby, talking endlessly, yet never placing any orders, just harassing her from morning till night.
Under such circumstances, Su Li wouldn’t reply. If she did, it would be a huge waste of time.
So every night, when it was almost time to provide Xiao Yuyu with companion play services, Su Li would first ask whether Xiao Yuyu wanted to play together and how much she was willing to pay.
At that moment, Xiao Yuyu would transfer a large sum of money—sometimes even more than usual.
Su Li would also ask her to confirm which part was for companion play and which part was a tip.
As long as there was income confirmed, Su Li would log in, place the order with Xiao Yuyu, and fulfill her professional duties to serve her.
After accompanying Miss Cat to buy some cat food and paying, Su Li glanced at her phone.
If she had to work, she wouldn’t be able to accompany Miss Cat anymore due to having to voice call with Xiao Yuyu.
Although Su Li’s expression was unreadable, Miss Cat sensed something and asked,
“Is there something you need to take care of?”
For some reason, whenever she saw Su Li standing there without moving, she could feel that Su Li was about to go busy with work.
Su Li nodded, and Miss Cat hurriedly said,
“Then you go ahead and get busy. I’m fine on my own!”
“Besides, after eating the lunchbox you made for me, I feel full of energy now. Don’t worry about me.”
As she said this, Miss Cat even showed Su Li the cat food she still had in her pocket.
She still had plenty left with her.
Su Li realized that Miss Cat’s recovery was indeed almost complete and nodded before getting up to leave.
Su Li was always like this—emotionless.
She was going to leave anyway, and since Miss Cat didn’t mind, there was no burden on her at all.
Today’s visit was originally just to return the lunchbox to Miss Cat.
Now that her purpose was fulfilled, there was no reason for her to stay.
Miss Cat stayed where she was, silently watching Su Li’s departing figure.
After a long while, she quietly chewed on a piece of cat food.
She felt like she had watched Su Li leave many times already.
But they had only known each other for a short time…
In a dark corner, Xiao Yuyu secretly watched Su Li leaving Miss Cat’s side.
Realizing she had successfully sent Su Li away, a smile curved at the corner of her mouth.
An inexplicable joy surged within her.
No matter how good Su Li’s relationship with this girl was, what did it matter?
As long as she wished it, Su Li would still come back to her side!
Xiao Yuyu recalled the scene from the hospital when she had met Su Li, that girl next to her still wearing the convenience store employee uniform, obviously poor.
If she had no money, what could she possibly use to compete with me?
Thinking this, a smile involuntarily spread across Xiao Yuyu’s lips.
……
Since she had decided to do business with Xiao Yuyu, Su Li directly went into a beverage shop and ordered a cheaper milk tea, preparing to log in.
While Su Li replied to Xiao Yuyu that she had arrived at the store, her phone was bombarded with messages nonstop.
Only when she told Xiao Yuyu she was ready to log in did the messages finally stop.
Not long after, a voice call invitation came through.
Su Li just answered, and within two or three seconds, the call was abruptly hung up.
Nearby, hiding in the corner and spying on Su Li, Xiao Yuyu suddenly realized she hadn’t used her voice changer when she just called Su Li.
Panic briefly hit her, but then she patted her heaving chest to calm herself down.
Luckily, she reacted quickly; otherwise, it would be bad if Su Li realized she was the one who had argued with her in the hospital.
She certainly didn’t want her “baby” to have a bad first impression of her.
After preparing everything, Xiao Yuyu restarted the voice call with Su Li.
In the Game, she also accepted Su Li’s invitation.
This was her new requirement: Su Li had to invite her and say, “Princess, please enter the room,” before she would enter Su Li’s room.
“Baby, baby, am I your best baby?”
“Baby, baby, am I your best baby?”
“Baby, baby, am I your best baby?”
As soon as she entered the room, Xiao Yuyu kept repeating the question eagerly.
“Yes, baby.”
Su Li replied calmly, without any change in tone or emotion.
Having received payment, Su Li naturally fulfilled all requests.
Besides, she wasn’t used to calling anyone “baby.”
The only exception was when she served Bai Huizi, pretending to be Bai Huizi’s mother and treating her as a baby per Bai Huizi’s request.
So calling Xiao Yuyu her best baby was acceptable.
Whether or not she was truly the best didn’t matter to Su Li.
“Baby, will you play games with me for a lifetime?”
Hearing Xiao Yuyu’s voice on the other end, Su Li was silent for a moment, saying nothing.
Only after Xiao Yuyu repeatedly asked did she slowly reply, “That’s a different price.”
A lifetime of gaming companionship was very expensive, and Su Li didn’t think Xiao Yuyu could afford such payment.
After all, the services she provided to Xiao Yuyu were only during her free time when she wasn’t working.
If she had to serve big clients like Bai Huizi or Shen Cishu, Xiao Yuyu’s service would have to be postponed.
Su Li felt somewhat mercenary.
In her heart, she had already assigned each paying client a level, dividing them into tiers.
Xiao Yuyu’s VIP level was not as high as Bai Huizi’s.
Still, when providing service to several clients, Su Li upheld the principle of treating everyone equally.
“If I have no money, will you not treat me so well?”
Xiao Yuyu’s voice trembled nervously.
“Yes.”
Su Li quickly replied.
She wouldn’t give any client room to bargain emotionally.
If Xiao Yuyu wanted to discuss feelings without paying, she would immediately end their transaction.
Their relationship was purely employer-employee, maintained only by money.
So Su Li felt there was nothing wrong with her answer.
