14: Wang Gang, the cross-dressing celebrity

Star finally breathed a sigh of relief but remained somewhat wary of You Yu, thinking to himself, "He couldn't be some kind of evil spirit or something, right?"

Countless horror scenarios instantly flashed through Star's mind—"dolls, red high heels, ghost cars..." The more Star thought about it, the more terrified he became, his body trembling involuntarily.

"Big brother, are you really a Hell Envoy? The one from that Underworld Culture Media Co., Ltd. that's been recruiting employees lately?" Star's voice trembled with nervousness.

You Yu nodded and said with a smile, "Yes, I am indeed a staff member from Underworld Culture Media Co., Ltd." He tried his best to make himself look friendly to avoid scaring this "girl."

Hearing this, Star cautiously sat up and asked in a trembling voice, "Hell Envoy, big brother, please speak!"

Star took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down. He felt his heart racing as if it were about to jump out of his throat. After several heavy gasps and quite a while, he finally regained his composure. "Sorry, Hell Envoy big brother, I'm a bit of a coward."

"Oh! It's fine, I'm already used to it. Let's begin the interview then," You Yu comforted him.

Star nodded repeatedly like a chick pecking at grain, indicating his agreement.

Once Star was sitting upright, You Yu continued, "First, please give me some basic information, such as your name, marital status, height, weight, and age. These are all important factors in evaluating whether you are suitable to become an Underworld streamer."

Star replied, "Currently unmarried, 178 cm tall, weighing about 55 kg, and 21 years old." As he spoke, he secretly observed You Yu's expression, hoping to find some clues from his reaction.

"Not bad, you're very suitable for the job of live-stream sales. Let me give you a brief overview of the work content and benefits here in the Underworld."

"You need to hit a daily live-streaming target of six hours. You can choose your streaming time slots randomly. The base salary is 10,000 RMB, with employee dorms and all meals provided."

"You get six days off per month, and your family will receive immediate protection from the Underworld. What do you think?" You Yu extended a ghostly hand and pushed an employee handbook in front of Star.

Star carefully read the contents of the handbook and found that this job wasn't much different from what he had been doing in the world of the living.

It was just swapping playing games for "selling goods." More importantly, the salary and benefits for this job were quite generous, and it could ensure his younger sister's safety. This made Star feel exceptionally joyful.

However, because there was no response for a long time, You Yu mistakenly thought Star was worried about the work, so he further explained, "Actually, sales performance isn't the most important thing; after all, the Underworld's goods don't lack a market."

"We hope to train you into a streamer who can spread knowledge of the supernatural. You just need to interact a lot with the viewers who enter the stream; you don't have to worry about sales volume."

Star nodded excitedly, expressing full understanding. His eyes sparkled as he saw countless RMB notes fluttering before him. He asked impatiently, "Hell Envoy big brother, the benefits you offer are simply too good! When can I start working?"

Seeing Star so enthusiastic and eager to start work, a satisfied smile appeared on You Yu's face. He secretly rejoiced that he had perfectly completed the task given by the BOSS. "Hahaha! I'm definitely the BOSS's number one lackey; no one else can take my place."

He immediately opened the Feixin lackey group and bragged to You Wu and Ling Qi: "You Wu, Ling Qi! I've recruited an especially, especially beautiful and sexy 'Older Sister Type' type. I bet as long as she takes sales seriously, she'll definitely become a top-tier Star in the Underworld. Our Hell Envoy brothers will surely be falling over themselves to do her favors during their time off."

Ling Qi: "A sexy 'Older Sister Type'? Really?"

You Wu: "*Slurp, slurp*, got a photo?"

You Yu replied immediately: "Really, for real! A super beautiful and sexy 'Older Sister Type'. Are you guys still at the company? I'll bring her over for you to see."

Ling Qi @You Wu: "Piss off, you pervert! This Old Lady will beat you to death, you old lecher. Don't you dare have any designs on the young lady."

A series of wails came from You Wu, "Oh... ow... ah... BOSS, help! There's a Female T-Rex!"

After a moment of silence, Ling Qi sent another message.

Ling Qi analyzed: "Why would a beautiful young lady choose to do this job? After all, constantly dealing with Hell Envoys is detrimental to one's lifespan."

You Yu scratched his head: "I don't know? I'll ask in a bit."

Ling Qi: "Remember to ask clearly. I'm going to go prepare for the other interviews first."

You Yu indicated he understood and sent a bunny "OK" emoji.

"Miss Star, I took another look at your Doudou profile. It says you're a junior in the Computer Science department at C University, a student at a 985 university, but some of your videos are a bit... suggestive."

Star paused, then said bluntly, "I'm very short on money!"

You Yu was somewhat surprised; he hadn't expected Star to admit to being short on money so directly.

"Miss Star, if you don't mind me asking, why?" You Yu asked.

Star hesitated for a moment but finally decided to be honest: "My sister and I were kicked out by our stepfather. My scholarship and work-study jobs are enough to support me until I find a job after graduation. But my sister is seven and needs to start elementary school. The admission fee for a regular private elementary school in C City is twenty thousand." He became a bit embarrassed.

Hearing this, You Yu couldn't help but frown, a surge of anger rising in his heart. "Kicked out?" You Yu slapped the table reflexively in anger. "That's too irresponsible! He can't just ignore your sister! What if a beautiful woman and a little girl ran into bad people?"

You Yu felt that Star's stepfather was simply a bastard. How could he kick two children out of the house? Moreover, Star was still a university student and was now forced to do things he "disliked" to earn money because of financial problems.

Star lowered his head, tears welling in his eyes. His swinging legs went stiff, his throat bobbed, and he steeled his heart, saying, "Mr. You Yu, actually, I lied to you. I'm a man."

"What?" You Yu's cheek twitched violently. "Impossible. You're so beautiful, sexy, and even have a 'Older Sister Type' voice."

"This is my ID card." Star pulled an ID card out of his pocket.

You Yu took the ID card. The gender "Male" and the name "Wang Gang" printed on it made the corner of his mouth twitch involuntarily. "A man!"

He released his Spiritual Sense to investigate, and sure enough, it was a male soul. He looked at "Wang Gang" with resentful eyes. "How can you be a man? Give me back my sexy young lady!"

"Hell Envoy big brother, I really am called Wang Gang!" A thick, gravelly accent suddenly came out.

You Yu's legs gave out and he fell to the floor, his heart feeling as if it had been struck by a billion points of damage. "Holy crap! A cross-dressing legend! BOSS!"
