A Low Rank Female Goes Viral Across the Galaxy-Chapter 270: Each with Their Own Motives

As a businessman, gathering information had become an instinct.

So Ni Jia quickly gave his answer. "Your Highness, his name is Cang Hong. He’s a famous singer and has collaborated with Miss Jiang Qing many times.

He’s currently signed to Tianwen Entertainment. Oh, right, Miss Jiang Qing has shares in Tianwen Entertainment.

There are rumors online that Mr. Cang Hong is likely Jiang Qin’s next choice for a partner.

As for why they aren’t married yet, it’s probably because they’re both very busy?"

"Her taste is really questionable, liking a spoiled brat like him," Long Hao scoffed.

’...Your Highness, your jealousy is painfully obvious,’ Ni Jia thought.

"Ahem, this Mr. Cang Hong is also quite two-faced. His public persona is that of an aloof and unapproachable figure. He rarely socializes with anyone.

This is the first I’m hearing that he acts this way with Miss Jiang Qing.

I’ve heard some females are very fond of males with this kind of contrast in their personality."

’A contrast?’

After sizing up Cang Hong, Long Hao got goosebumps all over. He felt this wasn’t something a normal person could learn to do.

"Does he have a problem with his tear ducts? How can he wail so much?"

"But... have you not noticed that Miss Jiang Qing completely falls for it?"

’She really does.’

It was so disgraceful for a male to cry like that, but Jiang Qin actually fell for his act, her face filled with distress for him.

When Cang Hong finally calmed down, left Jiang Qin’s embrace, and opened his eyes, he was instantly hit with crippling embarrassment.

Just now, he hadn’t paid any attention to who was in the courtyard, assuming it was just Yun Xie and the others...

After all, in all the time he’d lived here, they had never had guests over. He never expected...

Qi Shan wiggled her eyebrows teasingly. "My baby Jiang Qin, I had no idea you were into this type of male.

I have a few younger brothers at home. I wonder if you’d like them."

"Ahem, thank you for the kind offer, but no thanks."

With outsiders present, Cang Hong immediately reverted to his cold and taciturn mode, sticking close to Jiang Qin’s side.

While eating, he would even feed her a bite from time to time, making both Yun Xie and Long Hao’s teeth ache.

Yun Xie was fine, for the most part. After all, he had already accepted Cang Hong as family, so he just found him really clingy.

Long Hao, however, was miserable. He couldn’t for the life of him figure out why Jiang Qin would like such a male.

Ni Jia, however, understood. And he was ready to put what he learned into practice.

"Miss Jiang Qing, we can be considered friends now, right? May I call you by your first name?"

Jiang Qin nodded. "Of course. Isn’t that what names are for?"

"That’s good. I’ve wanted to for a while, but I was afraid you’d get angry, Qinqin."

Everyone froze and stared at Ni Jia, clearly not expecting him to take a mile when given an inch.

But Ni Jia, the focus of everyone’s attention, wasn’t flustered at all. He even smiled and explained, "I just feel that calling you by your full name is too distant, so I wanted to join everyone else in calling you by your nickname.

Is it inconvenient? If you’re not comfortable with me calling you that, I can switch back."

Since he’d put it that way, Jiang Qin couldn’t exactly say it was inconvenient.

After all, many people called her that, including some strangers, so she really didn’t find it inconvenient at all.

"Then I’ll call you Qinqin from now on."

Qi Shan also jumped in on the fun. "Then I’ll call you Qinqin baby!"

"...You can drop the ’baby’."

"Okay, Xiao Qin Bao."

’...Exhausting,’ Jiang Qin thought.

Seeing that her attention had been drawn away for a long time, Cang Hong quickly tried to get it back.

"Qinqin, try this. The flavor is quite unique."

Jiang Qin quickly opened her mouth to accept it and said, "This is really delicious. It’s a new flavor Yun Xie whipped up a while ago."

"Brother Yun is amazing as always. Here, try this too..."

Seeing this, Ni Jia also used a pair of tongs to pick up a slice of apple pie and offer it to her.

"This is my first time trying this dessert. It’s delicious. You should try it, Qinqin. And by the way, could you introduce me to your chef for the day?"

This apple pie was also a dessert that Yun Xie had made based on a description from Jiang Qin.

He had charged a fee to teach the recipe to the chef who came today.

As for the apples in the apple pie, it was a bit embarrassing to admit, but there were only a few specks of it. Most of the flavor came from apple essence.

But that didn’t stop it from being delicious.

The two of them took turns feeding her, and slowly, others began to join in.

When Jiang Qin looked down, she found that her plate, which originally only had a few pieces of food, was now full.

Interstellar food, no matter how deliciously prepared, only ever tasted as good as something very ordinary on Earth.

The texture of the raw ingredients was even more disappointing.

So her appetite was genuinely not very strong.

She simply gave half the food on her plate to Cang Hong. "This is too much. Help me eat some."

CRACK—

Long Hao, a smile on his face, snapped a golden fork in half. "Where did you buy this cutlery? The quality is worrisome."

Yun Xie calmly lifted his gaze. "I bought it. You have a problem with that?"

"In that case, it seems you lack experience in choosing housewares, sir. I have a batch of high-quality ones. I’ll have someone send them over later."

"No need. We don’t often entertain guests who enjoy breaking the cutlery."

The two males, one openly aggressive and the other secretly arrogant, refused to back down.

Sparks flew through the air.

Jiang Qin could feel two streams of spiritual power clashing.

It finally ended when Long Hao put down the fork, which was now broken in two.

Yun Xie let out a faint, cold snort. He had merely been lying low; he wasn’t crippled.

An S-level daring to compete with his SS-level Spiritual Power... just how much did they look down on him?

No matter how strong the opponent was in actual combat, a difference in Spiritual Power Level was not so easily overcome.

At this moment, Long Hao also calmed down.

’Damn it, I lost my cool for a moment and provoked her first partner. Do I still have a chance of getting in?’

’As a male, Yun Xie shouldn’t be that petty, right?’

...

Zheng Yushi, who had witnessed the entire exchange, unconsciously clenched her hands under the table.

’So this is Jiang Qin’s SS-level partner. He’s as strong as they say. Even Long Hao is no match for him.’

’Her father was right. There really is something uncanny about this Jiang Qin. She even managed to snag an SS-level male.’

’What made it even more jealousy-inducing was that this Yun Xie was an orphan. No matter who he married, he would be primarily loyal to the female’s family.’

’But instead, he was snatched up by a female who was also an orphan. What a colossal waste!!!’

Zheng Yushi secretly sized up Yun Xie.

In her mind, she began to ponder the possibility of poaching him.

’If he were an ordinary male, he certainly wouldn’t be worth my effort. But this is an SS-level male! There aren’t many of those in the entire Federation.’

’A male of that Level would have a smooth path to success no matter what he chose to do.’

’Why waste his time guarding a single female day after day, being a good-for-nothing?’

’However... snagging him won’t be easy.’

’The fact that he was willing to marry Jiang Qin clearly showed he was the type of person who didn’t care if their Spiritual Power Levels matched.’

’This type of person valued one thing above all: emotional connection...’
