Rekindling the Youthful Era

Chapter 735 Birthday Housewarming Plan
If you calculate carefully, after Li Luo and his family are ready to move into the villa, they will have to entertain guests quite a lot.

Elders like Ying Zhicheng must be invited once.

Zhao Rongjun and several other members of the study group should also be invited.

If Ying Chanxi and her friends get along well with their college roommates at school, they might even invite them to their home to visit.

Including Li Luo’s roommate.

Another example is the group of classmates in high school who had a good relationship with each other, such as Zhu Yufei and his friends.

Of course, some of them were not absolutely necessary, but Li Luo wrote them down in the memo of the memory palace and would deal with them later.

"Isn't your birthday December 12st?" Xu Youyu leaned over to Li Luo and whispered, "We can wait until that day to officially move into the new house. It feels quite meaningful."

"Of course you can, but why are you speaking so quietly?" Li Luo touched his itchy ear and asked in confusion.

"What I mean is..." Xu Youyu continued to lean close to his ear and whispered in a very ambiguous voice, "It's the first day of moving to your new home, and we're the four of us celebrating your birthday."

If these words came from Ying Chanxi's mouth, Li Luo would definitely not have any wild thoughts.

But once Li Luo heard these words from Xu Youyu's mouth, he immediately started to fantasize, and countless tempting images instantly popped up in his mind.

Villa, girl, birthday, swimming pool...

Just a few words flashing through your mind are enough for your brain to generate a bunch of things.

"Someone seems to have an unhealthy mind." Xu Youyu said with a smile, "Have you started to fantasize?"

"Ahem...don't say that." Li Luo coughed twice to cover up some of his delusions. "I just think your suggestion is good. I'm considering how to celebrate my birthday when the time comes."

"You don't have to worry about that." Xu Youyu said with a smile, "Just enjoy your birthday peacefully, my dear birthday boy. I will discuss it with Xixi and the others then."

"...Don't make trouble."

"Is that how little trust you have in me?"

"That's not just a small amount." Li Luo curled his lips, "I now doubt whether you have any conspiracy."

"You're overthinking it." Xu Youyu rolled his eyes at him, "Don't always act like a good kid after getting an advantage. You'll know when the time comes."

The two people were whispering here, while Yan Zhusheng on the other side took out his cell phone and was showing photos to Xu Yinghuan and the others.

These are some on-site photos and videos of Li Luo’s villa after it was renovated.

Lin Yuan and Zhao Rongjun also looked at it curiously.

After reading this, the former couldn't help but sigh in the corner: "Alas... Comparing yourself to others is really frustrating. The monitor is really not from the same world as us."

"We are still studying hard at university, but he has already bought a villa."

"Brother Jun, you have such a good relationship with the squad leader. If you ask him to give you a hand, won't you be able to rise to prominence?"

"By then, being with Xu Yinghuan will be a good match."

When Zhao Rongjun heard this, he immediately shook his head: "Li Luo makes money on his own ability, why should I join in the fun?"

"He relies on his own talent, writing online articles, composing songs and making albums."

"I can't help much, so it's better not to cause him trouble."

"That's true." Lin Yuan nodded. "By the way, you were going to take the entrance exam for Zhu College. I remember that the Zhu College of Qian University is quite impressive. Can you take the exam again after you are admitted?"

"It's possible, but it's quite difficult." Zhao Rongjun scratched his head, "I've been working hard recently. Huanhuan always said that I spend less time with her."

"That won't affect your relationship, will it?" Lin Yuan reminded quietly, "Don't lose the watermelon while picking up sesame seeds."

"I took the entrance exam to Zhuyuan so that I can be more worthy of Xu Yinghuan."

"If this incident causes the two of us to spend less time together and our relationship fades, then it would be more trouble than it's worth."

"It's okay." Zhao Rongjun said in a low voice, "She now accompanies me to the library to review."

When Lin Yuan heard this, his face suddenly darkened: "... Damn it, I shouldn't have reminded you out of kindness. How come you learned bad things from Li Luo?"

Always showing off your love.

If he didn't have a girlfriend, it would be really hard to bear.

But his Hua Xiuxiu is also a very good girl, and Lin Yuan is not envious of Zhao Rongjun and Li Luo at all.

It’s just that Hua Xiuxiu is more assertive and has a strong subjective initiative, while Lin Yuan has a playful personality.

Ever since the two of them got together, Hua Xiuxiu started planning for their future, and Lin Yuan sometimes felt quite uncomfortable.

But seeing that Li Luo has already achieved success and Zhao Rongjun is also working hard for Zhuyuan, Lin Yuan feels that he should also work harder?
"Come, come, come, take a look."

At this time, Xu Yinghuan had already stood up and picked up her phone. She walked around the room and pointed the camera at everyone. "I'm going to post a TikTok video. Come and compare it~"

Li Luo watched Xu Yinghuan playing Tik Tok with great enthusiasm, and couldn't help but feel moved, thinking of what he mentioned to Yuan Wanqing two days ago.

"Huanhuan, which is your Douyin account?" Li Luo waited for her to finish filming, then asked curiously, "Do you have many fans?"

"Eh? Fans?" Xu Yinghuan was stunned for a moment, then scratched his head, "About fifty or so fans, many of whom are acquaintances."

As he spoke, Xu Yinghuan handed the phone over and glanced at it for Li Luo and the others.

The name of this account is quite simple and unpretentious, it is called "Huanhuan Loves Rongjun".

Zhao Rongjun, who was standing next to them, saw Xu Yinghuan showing them the account number and his face suddenly turned red, he felt so embarrassed.

When Yan Zhusheng saw the account name, he looked thoughtful, and then said to Li Luo, "I want to have a nickname like this, too."

Zhu Sheng’s previous nickname for all her accounts on the Internet was “Sheng Sheng Bu Xi”. She had been used to it since she was a child. This was the first time she had the idea of ​​using a different nickname.

When Li Luo heard this, he imagined Yan Zhusheng creating an account called "Zhusheng loves Li Luo" and felt goosebumps all over his body.

"Forget it." Li Luo coughed and reminded, "You are a public figure, just use your real name as your account name."

"I see you've mentioned Douyin a lot recently." Xu Youyu also came over, took a curious look, and then asked, "What's the story behind this app?"

"It's a recent hit app," Li Luo said. "It has great potential. With the widespread coverage of 4G and cheaper data traffic, the short video track should be very popular in the future."

"It's already very popular." Xu Yinghuan said, "Ren Zheng and I are both playing it. There are a lot of interesting videos on it. We also shoot some videos and post them on it."

"Don't you need to edit it?" Ying Chanxi asked, "Isn't video production quite troublesome?"

"This is different." Xu Yinghuan said, "Look at my videos, they are all more than ten seconds long. There is no need to edit them. Just upload them directly after shooting. They even match the music for you, and there are even various templates."

"This is point-and-shoot shooting," Li Luo said with a smile. "Only by making video production something that everyone can easily do can we greatly increase the participation of users in posting videos."

"That's interesting." Xu Youyu nodded. "It's just to lower the threshold, similar to the difference between online literature and traditional literature."

At this point, Li Luo's eyes returned to Xu Yinghuan's account, and then he had a lot of thoughts. Maybe...

"Ah, it's time for dinner." Xu Yinghuan glanced at the time and then said, "I'll go ask Auntie if dinner is ready. We can go downstairs and prepare for dinner."

Li Luo originally wanted to say something, but Xu Yinghuan called him downstairs to prepare for dinner, so he took back the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

When he arrived at the dining table on the first floor, Li Luo ate while thinking.

After dinner, Hua Xiuxiu and Lin Yuan were the first to say goodbye and go home.

Seeing this, Ren Zheng simply followed Hua Xiuxiu and left.

Originally, Qiao Xinyan wanted to leave, but Xu Yinghuan pulled her back upstairs.

At this time, there were only seven members of the study group left. The girls crowded together to sing, and Li Luo pulled Zhao Rongjun to the corner to chat.

"I remember you said before that your living expenses were not enough?"

"It's not that it's not enough..." Zhao Rongjun whispered after hearing this, "I have enough for my own food and drinks, and I can save a little. But if I want to go out on a date with Huanhuan, I have to spend some money, otherwise she will always be the one spending the money."

"Yeah, that's what I mean." Li Luo laughed, "I have a good suggestion. Maybe it can provide you two with some dating funds."

"Ah? What do you mean?" Zhao Rongjun was stunned for a moment, a little unresponsive, "You want to give me money?"

"That's a nice thought." Li Luo rolled his eyes at him and said, "Call Huanhuan over."

"Oh……"

Zhao Rongjun went over and called Xu Yinghuan, and then the two of them came to Li Luo's side.

As a result, Li Luo went straight to Xu Yinghuan's ear and whispered a lot, and Xu Yinghuan's eyes became brighter and brighter, and he nodded repeatedly.

Soon, after Yan Zhusheng finished singing a high note, Xu Yinghuan temporarily turned off the sound of the KTV, turned on the lights, greeted everyone, and pulled Zhao Rongjun to sit in the middle of the sofa.

Then she opened her TikTok and handed the phone to Ying Chanxi: "Xixi, you are good at photography, come and help me take a picture."

"Oh...what are you going to do?" Ying Chanxi asked puzzledly.

"Let's play a little game." Xu Yinghuan laughed and said to Zhao Rongjun, "Let's play a challenge to hold back laughter."

"I'll make you laugh in ten seconds, but you can't laugh."

"If you hold on, you win. If you don't, I win."

Zhao Rongjun was surrounded by people and twisted his body uncomfortably: "Why do we suddenly have to play this kind of game?"

"Just play, don't ask too many questions."

Xu Yinghuan pulled his arm and acted coquettishly, and Zhao Rongjun immediately agreed reluctantly.

Qiao Xinyan watched this scene and silently moved her seat a little further away.

So under Ying Chanxi's lens, the mini-game officially began.

In front of Zhao Rongjun, Xu Yinghuan made all kinds of funny movements and even poked his waist, but Zhao Rongjun really tensed up.

He looked straight ahead with a straight face and didn't smile.

Ten seconds passed in a flash.

When the time came to the last second, Xu Yinghuan was about to fail and seemed to be anxious. She came in front of Zhao Rongjun and stared into his eyes angrily.

The result is the next second.

A bang.

Xu Yinghuan kissed him.

At this moment, Zhao Rongjun's eyes widened, his face turned red instantly, and he stood there in a daze, completely confused.

"Eh? Why aren't you smiling?" Xu Yinghuan blinked and poked Zhao Rongjun's waist again.

"You, you..." Zhao Rongjun hesitated, unable to speak. After a long while, he whispered, "There are people around..."

"It's not like we haven't kissed before." Xu Yinghuan blinked innocently, "Why are you still shy?"

"I'm going to the bathroom." Qiao Xinyan stood up, said something to Ying Chanxi in a low voice, then turned and went outside.

Li Luo, who was standing by, patted Ying Chanxi on the shoulder and said, "Just stop here."

"Let me see." Xu Yinghuan took back her phone, opened the video and watched it again, then burst into laughter, "Jun, your expression is so funny, how can you be so stupid?"

"No way..." Zhao Rongjun muttered, leaned over to take a look, and then suddenly felt embarrassed, "Is this also going to be posted on Douyin?"

"What does it matter?" Xu Yinghuan laughed, "So I'll just post it like this?"

"Yes, that's fine." Li Luo nodded, "Just a slight trimming of the front and back will be fine."

"Will this really work?" Xu Yinghuan asked Li Luo while operating it.

"I don't know either." Li Luo laughed. "Give it a try. It won't be a loss anyway. There is no cost investment."

"That's right." Xu Yinghuan nodded and posted the video with great interest.

"So what are you doing?" Ying Chanxi asked curiously.

"Let's give it a try." Li Luo said, "We'll talk about it if it works."

……

It has to be said that with a vision for the future, it is quite easy for Li Luo to grasp the logic of making short videos a hit.

This short video of a couple holding back their laughter challenge, co-produced by Xu Yinghuan and Zhao Rongjun, was viewed over 200,000 times in just half a day after its release.

Compared with the videos Xu Yinghuan posted before, most of which only had a few hundred views, it can be said that there is a world of difference.

By the last day of the National Day holiday, Xu Yinghuan's video had even exceeded one million views, 150,000 likes, and over 10,000 comments.

The number of fans also quickly exceeded 10,000.

Even the title tag of "Couples Holding Back Laughter Challenge" was used as a video template by the official TikTok.

[Xu Yinghuan]: There are actually cash rewards! With the original content incentive plan, I can go out for a good meal~
Xu Yinghuan sent good news in the study group’s WeChat group.

After seeing this, Li Luo smiled knowingly and recommended several video templates that were very suitable for couple bloggers to Xu Yinghuan and Zhao Rongjun, asking them to try them out.

Then he put down his phone, opened his email, and opened the file Xiaowen sent him.

The above is the specific quotation and details given by Douyin official to Yuan Wanqing for joining Douyin.
