I'm in Love Apartment, and the system is making me cultivate immortality.

Chapter 315: A Reprimand of Lisa (Recommended by Teacher Zeng!)

Wait for the elevator doors to close.

Pete Zhu then realized that the handsome guy from earlier was Zeng Xiaoxian's sponsor.

He even made fun of Zeng Xiaoxian in front of the other person?

"We're doomed."

Now, Pete Joel's good mood at seeing the beautiful woman was completely ruined.

In the elevator.

"Yes!"

Zeng Xiaoxian gave Gu Yifan a thumbs up. This assist was very helpful, and he was very satisfied!
Just thinking about Pete Zhu's bewildered and surprised expression made Zeng Xiaoxian want to laugh.

All he could say was, "Well done!"
I helped Teacher Zeng save face a little.

Gu Yifan turned his head and looked at Nuolan, who was still silent.

Nuolan also noticed Gu Yifan's gaze, her long eyelashes fluttered a few times, and she turned her face even further away.

This scene is quite cute.

"What did I do wrong, sis? Just tell me." Gu Yifan leaned closer, a fawning smile on his face, and bent down to look at Nuolan.

To be honest, this scene in the elevator was somewhat ambiguous.

However, Zeng Xiaoxian didn't take it seriously, since he didn't know the true relationship between the two.

But then, Nuolan hesitated for a moment, and with lightning speed, pinched Gu Yifan's cheek.

I squeezed and kneaded it hard twice.

"You little rascal, Gu Yifan! You're asking me what's wrong? How come I didn't know my dear Yifan brother could write songs?"

Nuolan gritted her teeth and rubbed her younger brother's handsome face, her sarcastic tone making people want to laugh instead.

The sudden intimate gesture, along with Nuolan's coquettish tone.

Zeng Xiaoxian was stunned, his eyes wide like saucers, staring intently at the two of them.

"Wow! Is this still the elegant goddess from the radio station? She can also have this soft, feminine side?"

For a moment, Zeng Xiaoxian's jealousy made him wish he could take Gu Yifan's place.

Enjoy the silky smooth feel of Nolan's jade fingers touching your cheek.

Gu Yifan: Teacher Zeng, you really do have a bit of a masochistic streak.

"Write a song?"

Gu Yifan looked surprised. How did Nuolan know?

Huh, still pretending?

Nolan glared at her with her beautiful eyes, "Still pretending!"

"No." Gu Yifan scratched his head. He quickly calculated and knew that Lisa must have told Nuolan.

"I wrote two catchy pop songs on a whim, I don't think that's a mistake."

Nuolan almost laughed out of anger at Gu Yifan. A song that could be praised as amazing by multiple professional singers and bigwigs in the industry, is it just a pop song?
Sometimes, Nuolan thought she understood Gu Yifan, but Gu Yifan always managed to bring her different surprises.

Nuolan reluctantly let go, pouting. "A pop song? I bet it's a love song written specifically for a girlfriend. Wow, amazing, composer?"

Writing a song specifically for his girlfriend, how romantic!

What about her?
Nuolan was angry because she felt that she was the one who had spent the most time by Gu Yifan's side.

However, he failed to receive this 'honor'.

In fact, Nuolan wouldn't have known about this if Lisa hadn't told her.

How could she accept this?

Especially when Nuolan saw Gu Yifan gazing affectionately at Lin Wanyu in the audience on camera.

Her heart clenched in an instant.

I felt terrible all night!

She was just waiting for Gu Yifan to contact her, but a week has passed and that brat has been nowhere to be seen, not sending a single message.

It's easy to imagine that Nuolan's resentment grew deeper and deeper.
Gu Yifan suddenly realized why Nuolan was angry.

So, you were jealous?
Because of a song?

It's truly a situation that makes one both laugh and cry.

Upon learning the reason, Gu Yifan relaxed and took Nuolan's hand.

"Sis, you should have said so earlier! I would have written one for you too, wouldn't that have been great?"

"Hmph, no need for you to trouble yourself. Mr. Gu is so busy, yet you still take the time to write a song for me. Do I deserve it?"

Nuolan's tone was less angry and more like she was being coquettish, expressing her grievances.

So that Gu Yifan could comfort her and keep her company.

Corner of the elevator.

Zeng Xiaoxian's mouth was so wide open that a light bulb could fit inside.

I can't believe what I'm seeing.

This...this is Nuolan?

A dignified and sweet goddess?
If he sees all this, won't he be killed to silence him?

Zeng Xiaoxian was drenched in sweat.

More than the song, Gu Yifan was curious about Nuolan's changes.

She doesn't always maintain an elegant image in front of outsiders.

"Then I'll write two songs specifically for you, and I'll sing them for you after I finish writing them, is that alright?" Gu Yifan added.

He has too many love songs in his head; he can just copy or borrow them.

After listening, Nolan gave him a disapproving look. "Does he really think he's a composer? So easy?"

Gu Yifan shrugged, "Writing songs for my sister gives me a lot more inspiration."

Upon hearing this, Nuolan couldn't help but chuckle, but only for a moment before her face hardened again. "Write it down first!"

"Leave it to me," Gu Yifan assured, patting his chest.

Give him a minute, and he can immediately choose a song—no, write one.

At the same time, Gu Yifan tugged at Nuolan's sleeve and whispered something to her.

"Sister, what's wrong with you today? Did Teacher Zeng see you?"

Nuolan glanced at Zeng Xiaoxian, who was pretending not to see anything, feeling shy inside, but said softly, "It's okay, we're all family, what's the big deal?"

Gu Yifan was even more surprised. How could such words come from the mouth of Nuolan, who always paid attention to her image?
Did the sun rise in the south today?
Actually, the root of this matter can be traced back to a certain fox spirit.

Nuolan and Su Weiwei's relationship is becoming increasingly close.

Previously, the two women were simply beautiful in their own fields, and regarded each other as their only confidantes, occasionally getting together to chat.

Both women are now feeling a sense of crisis.

Su Weiwei will resign at the end of the month to work for Gu Yifan's company.

Ke Nuolan would never follow suit and quit her job as a host; she wouldn't stoop to doing so.

Nolan has her own pride.

Therefore, their alliance grew even stronger because of those 'potential rivals'.

The peach trees they had painstakingly planted were about to blossom and bear the largest and sweetest fruit.

How can we let someone else pick it?

Su Weiwei taught Nuolan some techniques.

This includes changing one's appearance and style to regain Gu Yifan's attention.

Su Weiwei confidently asserted that the reason Gu Yifan's relationship with them hadn't progressed was entirely because they were too familiar with each other.

It's hard to make a move on someone you know well; you've practically become family.

Only by changing her appearance can she regain Gu Yifan's attention.

Su Weiwei even used herself as an example, boldly changing her style, which took her a step further and inspired Nuolan to follow suit.

Nolan was initially reluctant.

In this way, wouldn't she be able to kneel down and beg for affection?

But the facts speak for themselves.

Nuolan couldn't make Gu Yifan cling to her every day.

On the contrary, he can go a whole week without sending a single message.

Nuolan was anxious, but she also came to terms with it.

It's just a matter of making some changes. Su Weiwei is a woman of many faces, so can she be one too.

This wasn't for Gu Yifan; she was tired of her current persona and wanted to respond to the current online call to be her true self.

This is just the first attempt.

It seems to actually work.
As Nuolan was thinking this, the elevator arrived.

The three of them walked out of the elevator together.

"Sis, are you looking for Lisa too?" Gu Yifan asked Nuolan.

Nolan interrupted her thoughts, looked up, and asked, "It won't work?"

"Fine, fine." Gu Yifan knew he had made a fool of himself and that Nuolan was still jealous, so he kept quiet.

Seeing Gu Yifan's discomfiture, Zeng Xiaoxian almost burst out laughing.

Indeed, the saying "one thing subdues another" is true.

Zhanbo was completely subdued by his older sister.

Lisa is already waiting in the office.

He was not surprised to see the three of them walk in together.

"You're here, please have a seat," Lisa said with a smile as she stood up.

Seeing this, Gu Yifan was certain that his encounter with Nuolan in the elevator was most likely not a coincidence.

She timed it perfectly, or Lisa notified her.

Nolan's office has a view of the parking lot, so she might have been watching all along.

But why would Lisa inform Nuolan? Gu Yifan pondered this, thinking of the Super Boy incident.

Nuolan and Gu Yifan sat down on the sofa together, waiting for Zeng Xiaoxian to sit down.

"Who told you to sit down?" Lisa's soft voice came from behind.

Zeng Xiaoxian jumped up before even touching the sofa, and said with a smirk.

"Yes, yes, Lisa, please have a seat, I'll get you some water~"

"No need." Lisa placed two glasses of water in front of Gu Yifan and Nuolan, glancing at Zeng Xiaoxian.

I thought to myself that he also made a profit.

If Zeng Xiaoxian hadn't known Gu Yifan and been her roommate Xiao Bu, would he have gotten such a good opportunity?
What? This is discrimination?

No, if Zeng Xiaoxian could stop being at the bottom of the class and even become the top host on the radio, Lisa would have a different attitude towards him.

Zeng Xiaoxian stood obediently to the side.

His expression held a hint of resentment.

Lisa and Pete Joo both look down on him, but he's just not good enough for himself and can only rely on his good friend's help.

"I, Zeng Xiaoxian, am determined to latch onto Yifan!" "I'm here today to discuss sponsoring Teacher Zeng's program."

Gu Yifan took the paper cup, glanced at Teacher Zeng who looked like a little punching bag, and smiled.

But Lisa shook her head, saying casually, "There's no rush. I heard you mention some suggestions for the show last time."

"Now that the auditions for the Super Boy program have ended and the next round is about to begin, I'd like to hear your thoughts."

As she spoke, Lisa looked at Gu Yifan expectantly.

Gu Yifan raised an eyebrow.

Okay, now I'm thinking of him.

Did they specifically call Nuolan over to pressure him with his sister's influence? Now they're asking for his advice, treating him like a walking encyclopedia.

Lisa probably thought he was still too young and didn't take him too seriously.

Of course, Lisa, who is in her thirties, is indeed much older than Gu Yifan.

But regardless of whether that's true or not, Gu Yifan wasn't buying it.

He can offer advice and suggest good programs, but he only does so if he's willing to and in a dominant position.

Do you really think he made a selfless sacrifice?

"I think the show is great in every way. I have no suggestions. It's all pretty good."

Gu Yifan's smile turned a little colder, and he said politely.

Lisa was taken aback.

Before, you said you had some ideas and would go back and organize them, but now you suddenly have no suggestions.

Lisa frowned, sensing a change in Gu Yifan's attitude.

But where did it come from?

Suddenly, a brilliant idea flashed into her mind.

Could it be because of Nuolan?

Then look at Gu Yifan's distant smile.

Lisa suddenly understood, and her heart sank. It seemed that she had indeed made a mistake in her consideration.

Just thinking about it, Nuolan is Gu Yifan's older sister, and Gu Yifan cares about her a lot.

With Nolan speaking up for me, things should be easier.

But now that I think about it, nobody wants someone else to tell them how to do things.

Especially a young and promising genius like Gu Yifan.

They may smile at you on the surface, but they might accidentally touch a nerve.

Looking back now, it's most likely that Gu Yifan disliked her informing Nuolan.

But how can we remedy this?

After thinking quickly, Lisa smiled.

"Oh, I see. It's alright. By the way, Nuolan, I called you here because there's something I'd like to discuss with you."

"What's wrong, Lisa?" Nuolan also sensed that Gu Yifan was a little angry, especially when she glanced at his cold expression and her heart suddenly trembled.

Did she upset her brother?

He was flustered inside, but on the surface he had to smile and respond to Lisa.

"Here's the thing, the station's transfer has been finalized. From now on, Nuolan, you'll be a host on Dragon TV," Lisa said with a smile, while observing Gu Yifan's expression as he remained silent.

"Really?" Nuolan asked in surprise, a huge weight lifted from her heart. Although it was basically a done deal, she was still a little uneasy until now.

Gu Yifan remained indifferent.

Seeing this, and knowing she had indeed upset him, Lisa added, "Also, the host for Super Boy hasn't been decided yet, and you happen to have a gap in your schedule right now, how about..."

"No need."

At this moment, Gu Yifan suddenly interrupted.

Nuolan and Lisa both looked at Gu Yifan, and oh, and Teacher Zeng, who had once again vanished into thin air.

"What's wrong, Yifan?" Nuolan pursed her lips, the joy on her face disappearing.

Facing Gu Yifan, who seemed more distant now, she felt inexplicably flustered and asked cautiously.

She was afraid. Afraid that Gu Yifan would really get angry and that their relationship would be strained.

The two returned to their previous state of not frequently contacting each other.

Gu Yifan wouldn't even take the initiative to contact her before, let alone now.

Unbeknownst to him, Gu Yifan had reached a new level, and Nuolan now had to rely on him.

Lisa's expression froze, and she said awkwardly, "Yifan, what do you mean?"

Now, Gu Yifan exudes an indescribable aura.

Even Lisa seemed a bit reserved, as if she were facing some powerful, long-established leader.

Lisa regretted it somewhat; she had been too rash, treating Gu Yifan as Nuolan's younger brother rather than an investor who had invested millions.

Seeing that both women stared at him silently after he said that, he was about to speak.

Gu Yifan himself was stunned.

When did his words become so effective?

Gu Yifan wasn't angry, but he wanted to regain control of the situation, instead of being led around by a top producer like Lisa.

It seems that the goal has been achieved.

Gu Yifan thought to himself, but shook his head and said in a deep voice.

"She's not suitable for this show."

"Why?" Nuolan asked, feeling wronged.

"There's no room for you to shine on this show, so what's the point of it?" Gu Yifan asked Nuolan in return.

Nolan blinked. "A singer?"

Gu Yifan nodded and patiently explained.

"That's it. Even if you become a host, you're just a pretty face at best. There's no need for you to be a host like that."

Gu Yifan's words were quite blunt.

Lisa, sitting next to him, looked slightly embarrassed.

But this actually shows that Gu Yifan is an investor, someone at a higher level, rather than an intern or staff member.

The one who pays is the boss; this saying applies everywhere.

Not happy? Then withdraw your investment.

Even big-name directors have to drink with investors, and they have to put up with it even if they're unhappy.

Moreover, not all programs are suitable for Nolan.

Gu Yifan has a clear vision for Nuolan's future: a clear-headed and independent role model for modern women.

Appearing on this kind of program would actually negatively impact Nolan's future path.

Aside from feeling a little embarrassed, Lisa...

On the contrary, I admire Gu Yifan a little, because he really hit the nail on the head.

The hosts of these kinds of programs are basically useless; maybe they can just read the commercials?

They don't even leave an impression on the audience.

Of course, a good host can double the effect of a program.

From this perspective, Nolan, who is about to transform from a confidante goddess into a representative of clear-headed women, is no longer suitable to be just a pretty face.

Lisa herself hadn't thought of this, but Gu Yifan immediately did.

Lisa thought to herself, "Am I getting older and starting to fall behind the times?"

After realizing that she might have offended Gu Yifan, Lisa softened her attitude considerably.

"So, who do you think is suitable to be a program host?"

Gu Yifan: "???"

You're asking me that?
You're the producer, and I'm the producer.

However, considering that Lisa realized the problem and took the initiative to apologize,

Gu Yifan stopped putting on airs, thought for a moment, and unexpectedly said, "I think Teacher Zeng is quite good."

The office fell silent again.

Two seconds later.

“Zeng Xiaoxian?” Lisa asked in surprise.

Zeng Xiaoxian, who was secretly envying Gu Yifan, suddenly widened his eyes and pointed at himself.

I?
“Hmm, this show isn’t suitable for my sister, but it’s more suitable for Teacher Zeng.” Gu Yifan smiled and nodded.

"Perhaps Lisa, you've also noticed that Teacher Zeng isn't really suited to be a relationship-themed host."

Zeng Xiaoxian: "."

"No, my good brother, do you have to say it so bluntly? It's going to hurt my feelings."

"Why am I just not suited to be a relationship talk show host!"

Lisa, however, seemed thoughtful. "Indeed, Zeng Xiaoxian is indecisive. I think I've heard that his love life hasn't been very smooth either."

Lisa's words were like another knife to Zeng Xiaoxian's heart.

"I still have a lot of viewers supporting me."

"But most of them are insomniacs, and they can only get a good night's sleep by listening to your program, Teacher Zeng." Gu Yifan sighed.

"Teacher Zeng, don't you think your talent is more suited to being a variety show host?"

"What do you mean?" Zeng Xiaoxian asked, bewildered.

"Lisa, think back, Teacher Zeng can be so cheeky that you want to punch him, but other times he can make you laugh so easily," Gu Yifan said with a smile.

"Well, it's true. I've thought about sewing his mouth shut more than once, it's so annoying," Lisa joked.

Nuolan smiled knowingly.

The atmosphere eased.

This is not meant to disparage Teacher Zeng; on the contrary, it shows that everyone treats him as one of their own.

"So, Teacher Zeng's stage should be variety shows, to bring joy to people. He's a natural comedian, and he can come up with all sorts of funny jokes on the spot." Gu Yifan shrugged.

“Teacher Zeng, you are actually talented, you just don’t realize it.”

Zeng Xiaoxian originally wanted to refute, but when he thought about it carefully, he began to doubt his own existence.

"For a show like this, the host needs to have distinctive features to stand out. If we let Teacher Zeng host it, it might add some highlights to the show, who knows?"

Gu Yifan patiently recommended Teacher Zeng, and he genuinely felt that Teacher Zeng should give it a try.

Lisa nodded thoughtfully. "I will seriously consider this suggestion."

"Really?!" Zeng Xiaoxian asked in surprise.

No matter what, this is a TV program. Why be picky when you have the opportunity to host a TV program?

Lisa looked thoughtfully at Gu Yifan, who was smiling.

Gu Yifan is really good to his friends.

Conversely, if they become rivals.
Hmm, maybe we shouldn't.
