A Low Rank Female Goes Viral Across the Galaxy-Chapter 167: Keeping Watch

On an ordinary afternoon, Tianwen Entertainment posted an update that sent the internet into an uproar:

The film "Kung Fu," single-handedly produced by Miss Jiang Qin, will be released on November 10th.

Below was an edited clip:

A beggar spoke earnestly to a young boy, "Kid, I can see your bone structure is extraordinary. You’re a one-in-a-million martial arts prodigy."

"The fate of world peace rests on your shoulders."

"I have a secret manual right here. Since fate has brought us together, I’ll sell it to you for just Ten Star Coins."

...

[Wow, Qin Bao is amazing! To think she could film a movie all by herself at a time like this.]

[A true career-focused queen. She can’t sit still for a second.]

[She should be safe by now, right? Hasn’t Admiral Mo been cracking down on a bunch of Star Thief dens recently?]

[I heard the bounty on him on the Dark Web has gone up again and again.]

[Tsk tsk, I can’t even imagine. If someone managed to capture both Admiral Mo and Qin Bao at the same time, how rich would they be?]

[Uhh... If that day ever comes, I hope whoever captures them doesn’t give them a hard time or hand them over to the Star Thieves.]

[We’re willing to donate to rescue them. The amount won’t be any lower than the bounty.]

[Even though the "if" from the poster above is a bit morbid, I agree.]

[Am I the only one who can’t wait for the 10th to watch the movie?]

[Same! If it’s a Jiang Qin production, you can trust the quality.]

...

Needless to say, this news brought a sigh of relief to everyone who had been worried about Jiang Qin.

Only one person was unhappy.

And that was Jiang Ruming.

Recently, Jiang Yulian’s partners had introduced her to many males.

These males were mostly the offspring of those partners’ business associates or people who could be of use to them.

Every one of them was mediocre. Not a single one was exceptional; the highest was merely an A-level male.

She couldn’t accept it.

Furthermore, the two A-level males had gotten straight to the point and asked if she had a White Rabbit Spirit Body.

They were only interested in her because of her White Rabbit Spirit Body.

They even asked that since she was Jiang Qin’s sister, did her Spiritual Body have the same abilities as Jiang Qin’s.

’Since you’re sisters from the same family, the difference can’t be that big, right?’

What was she supposed to say to that?

’Am I supposed to tell them I don’t have a White Rabbit Spirit Body, but a disgusting Green-spotted Rat?’

After getting married, they would find out as soon as they mated. At that point, not only would they divorce her, but they would also spread the word.

Her own Level wasn’t high. Although she looked down on A-level males, with their qualifications, it wouldn’t be difficult for them to find a B-level female.

Why would they want a female with an ugly Spiritual Body to ruin their appetite?

’Just imagine... in the heat of the moment, a Green-spotted Rat appears at the head of the bed, staring at you...’

’Forget the males; even she would lose all interest.’

So Jiang Ruming didn’t want to get married so quickly. She just wanted to become a star, the beautiful dream of all males—a female to be admired from afar but never reached.

Just like... Jiang Qin...

KNOCK KNOCK—

The door was knocked on again.

Jiang Ruhai’s voice came from outside. "Sister, Dad is telling you to come down and meet Mr. Lin."

"I’ll be right down."

Jiang Ruming went downstairs. When she saw the guest in the living room, she put on a gentle smile, despite the annoyance in her heart.

Lin Liang, who had been forced to come, suddenly felt a spark of interest.

***

「Five more days passed in the blink of an eye.」

The movie was successfully released.

In those five days, Jiang Qin’s residence hadn’t been attacked again.

So today, the family of four went out to see the movie.

But just as they stepped out the main gate, they saw someone completely unexpected.

"Cang Hong?"

The person outside, wrapped up tightly and dressed all in black, was none other than Cang Hong.

If not for his exposed eyes, which were quite memorable, Jiang Qin wouldn’t have even recognized him.

"What are you doing here?"

Cang Hong said awkwardly, "I... I’ve been here... standing guard for many days."

"?? You haven’t been here... protecting me, have you?"

He nodded, a little shyly.

Jiang Qin was in disbelief. "How many days?"

"It’s... It’s been a week."

After he broke his contract and returned to the Federation, Jiang Qin had calmed him down, and he had managed to stop himself from coming at the time.

But Later, the more he thought about it, the more he couldn’t rest easy.

Although his combat awareness wasn’t strong due to being busy with work for years...

...his beast form gave him an advantage, and his spiritual power Level wasn’t low. If something happened, he could at least help delay the enemy.

So, he came in secret anyway.

After arriving, he was worried Jiang Qin would be angry if she found out, so he chose to stay hidden.

In fact, it had been more than a week. During the previous attack, he had also jumped into the fight, only to leave again just before it ended.

He revealed himself today because he guessed that Jiang Qin would definitely go to the theater to see her newly released movie.

He wanted to watch the movie with her.

Especially since it was her own work; that made him want to see it with her even more.

Besides, he was worried that *those people* would also guess her schedule for the day, so he wanted to stay by her side to protect her.

"A week? Then why didn’t you tell me?"

"Standing guard out here... that must have been so hard..."

The weather in Central City has been very cold recently. There’s nowhere to sleep out here, just some fake decorative trees. It must have been exhausting.

’And with Cang Hong’s personality, he probably stood guard the entire time without leaving for even a moment.’

Cang Hong lowered his gaze. "It wasn’t hard. I just... I was just afraid of bothering you."

Jiang Qin was at a loss for words.

Because of the unexpected arrival of Lan Yuyan, she had actually given up on Cang Hong as an option.

After all, her original goal was simply to find a few more intimate, High-level males to protect her.

If Shi Lichuan hadn’t been enough on his own, she might not have even considered finding more.

Originally, she had wanted Yun Xie and him.

But then Lan Yuyan had suddenly barged in. If she didn’t make Lan Yuyan one of her own, she probably would have been too anxious to eat or sleep.

So at the time, her only thought was to make him one of her own, to make him willingly keep her secret for her.

Interstellar males fell for females far too easily.

She was confident she could win Lan Yuyan’s heart.

After she did, she stopped considering Cang Hong. After all, Shi Lichuan had been right about one thing: his job was a bit too busy.

She couldn’t bring herself to say something like asking him to give up his dream to protect her.

So, after thinking it over, she had decided to give up on Cang Hong as an option.

And yet... he had chosen on his own to abandon his work and watch over her.

Faced with someone so sincere, Jiang Qin found it truly difficult to harbor any thoughts of using him.

She didn’t press further, simply smiling as she invited him, "Want to go see the movie together?"

Cang Hong gave a small nod, his heart leaping with a little bit of joy.

He chose to ignore the fiery glares directed at him.

’As long as I can watch the movie with Miss Jiang, let these other males glare all they want. It’s only natural for an outstanding female to be coveted by many males.’

He didn’t think there was anything wrong with coveting Jiang Qin.

Yun Xie radiated a cold aura. Without even glancing at Cang Hong, he started being all clingy with Jiang Qin.

One moment he wanted to hold her hand, the next he wanted to wrap his arm around her waist. The message to get the other guy to back off couldn’t have been more obvious.

Shi Lichuan, on the other hand, didn’t say anything. He was clearly unhappy, but he didn’t show any outward rejection.

As for Lan Yuyan, he chose to wait and see. After all, there was a more aggressive Flood Dra taking the lead. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

He just needed to sit back and watch the tigers fight.
