Three days later.
Over the past few days, Chu Feng had sent her message after message, but Su Yun had ignored most of them.
She'd also turned down his latest invitation to dinner.
Su Yun no longer knew how she was supposed to face Chu Feng.
Her daily missions had gone on as usual over the past three days.
Day One.
She wore a revealing cosplay outfit to order takeout, had the delivery driver bring it to her home, and made sure he saw what she was wearing.
Humiliation Points +1,400.
Day Two.
She wore hot pants to play a dance game at the arcade, where people gathered to watch and some even hit on her.
Humiliation Points +3,000.
Day Three.
Su Yun played an online game and spoke into her computer's microphone in an exaggeratedly sweet voice.
“Come on, big bro, buy me that outfit! I want it so bad… Pleeease?”
“All right, all right. I'll buy it for you.”
Humiliation Points +4,000.
……
After completing the mission, Su Yun flopped onto her bed with a huge sigh of relief.
Without Chu Feng's involvement, earning Humiliation Points from the missions over these three days had been painfully slow.
Even with the collar and high heels boosting her gain rate by 40%, it still couldn't compare to those previous two days.
“At this rate, a month or two might not even earn me as much as I got from Chu Feng in a single day…”
She finally understood what people meant when they said it was easy to go from frugality to luxury, but hard to go back.
Those missions from the previous two days, which handed out a hundred thousand Humiliation Points at a time, weren't coming back.
And because of that…
She was facing a major crisis.
She was running out of Humiliation Points!
Ever since she crafted [Goddess's Wish], she'd been doing a hundred-pull every day, at a cost of 50,000 Humiliation Points each time.
Humiliation Points: 40,000
Three days had drained her Humiliation Points to the bottom. She wouldn't even have enough to pull again tomorrow…
As for the Humiliation Points she earned from her daily missions, they were barely a drop in the bucket.
They were only enough to cover the daily cost of granting abilities to her followers.
Luckily, the rewards she'd gotten from her wishes over the past three days were pretty good. They'd raised her Humiliation Point gain rate to 100%!
As for her luck? Still stuck with the pity rewards…
[Divine Maiden's Earrings]
This item can take the form of any kind of earring. When the Divine Maiden wears it while completing a mission, she gains an additional 20% Humiliation Points. It can block malicious surveillance signals in the surrounding area and detect disguised cave-dwellers.
[Divine Maiden's Bracelet]
This item can take the form of any kind of bracelet. When the Divine Maiden wears it while completing a mission, she gains an additional 20% Humiliation Points and access to item storage space.
[Divine Maiden's Ring]
This item can take the form of any kind of ring. When the Divine Maiden wears it while completing a mission, she gains an additional 20% Humiliation Points. It can store one S-rank or lower magic spell or skill.
……
Naturally, she wore the equipment she'd obtained.
If it came from the system, it was guaranteed to be top quality.
Unlike clothes, where style was the main thing…
…these sparkling rings and bracelets made the system's high-end quality even more obvious.
No matter what material they took the form of—gems or jade—their quality was a notch or two above the finest items on the market.
Maybe it was because she'd become a girl, but lately she'd found herself drawn to sparkling jewelry.
Even without the Humiliation Point bonus, they were still lovely.
“Sigh…”
But now, with these three pieces of equipment and her Humiliation Points nearly gone…
…she might never get another one.
And it would take a month or two to earn as many Humiliation Points as she'd gotten in a single day before.
Saving the world had just become a whole lot harder.
After getting used to the high-yield missions Chu Feng brought her, the regular ones felt pretty dull…
They just didn't give her enough.
Now she finally understood why it was so hard for working girls to leave that life behind.
After all, when you could earn money just by lying down, the hard work of making an honest living afterward was a stark contrast.
That was exactly how she felt now.
What if…
A bold idea drifted through Su Yun's mind.
She could go find Chu Feng!
She picked up her phone several times, only to put it down again.
She stared at the avatar of someone named [Chu Han Feng Liu] on WeChat, unable to make up her mind.
Remembering how awkward it had been when Chu Feng saw her naked, she had no idea how to face him.
“Hmph!”
“Why hasn't the system given me any missions these past few days?”
If the system gave her a mission involving Chu Feng right now, she might actually accept it.
But contacting him on her own, without a mission? That was way too embarrassing.
Before, she could at least say it was for the mission…
“Whatever! I'm doing this for… for the sake of saving the world!” Su Yun steeled herself and made up her mind.
She opened her chat with Chu Feng.
[Chu Han Feng Liu]: Xiao Yun'er, I was out of line last time. Let me take you to dinner to make it up to you. Can I drive over and pick you up?
[Chu Han Feng Liu]: Xiao Yun'er, would you like to visit our company? Your best friend, Chen Shasha, is here too. She can keep you company.
[Chu Han Feng Liu]: (╥╯^╰╥) It's over. I've lost my Xiao Yun'er.
……
Su Yun glanced at their earlier chat history.
“That jerk's still as cheesy as ever,” Su Yun grumbled.
At the same time, she began typing a message.
[Su Xiaoyun'er]: I was in the shower earlier. What did you need?
She hadn't actually been in the shower. She'd been playing the sweet, innocent girl in an online game, trying to get someone to buy her gear…
The bizarre missions were another reason she'd decided to contact Chu Feng again.
If she kept this up, she was afraid she'd lose every last scrap of her dignity.
……
Chutian Fengyun Company, CEO's office.
Chu Feng sat there looking thoroughly fed up as the women around him argued.
“President Chu, please take me to Mr. Xu's daughter's coming-of-age ball! I'm begging you!” said the woman in red.
“President Chu, I'm a great dancer. Let me be your partner,” said the woman in yellow.
“Forget it. Have you seen the way you dance?” said the woman in black.
“Me? You should take a look at the wrinkles around your eyes! Even if I'm a terrible dancer, I'm still younger than you!” the woman in yellow shot back.
“Smack!”
“Enough! All of you, get out.”
Chu Feng slammed his hand on the desk and ordered the women to leave.
He was already annoyed because Xiao Yun'er had barely spoken to him these past few days.
Chu Feng glanced at the reason the women were arguing.
A ball invitation.
The invitation had come from Xu Zhengchu, owner of Jiangcheng's largest 4A-rated advertising company. He controlled the rights to use numerous airports, train stations, LED screens, and road signs.
His advertising company might not be worth much, but it had a lot of influence. Jiangcheng's rich and famous would all show up to support the event.
Since Chu Feng worked in the service industry, his company naturally did business with Xu Zhengchu's.
Chu Feng hesitated.
Should he go to the ball or not…?
Normally, he'd go to show his support for the sake of future business.
Each invitation also allowed him to bring a dance partner.
But ever since meeting Su Yun, he really didn't want to attend the ball with one of those other noisy women.
If only he could go with Xiao Yun'er…
“Beep, beep—”
[Su Xiaoyun'er]: I was in the shower earlier. What did you need?
